Adonis Georgiadis wrote that, according to the narrative he provided, Sulla responded to the Athenians who invoked their history by showing them his sword. The Athenians did not surrender and, as he mentioned, were slaughtered. Georgiadis linked the story to the attitude of the Athenians towards the Melians in 416 BC, stating that they too had argued that the right of the strong passes from one strong person to the next. He added that Marco Rubio had referred to the same notion the previous day and summarized the message as a warning that weakness could lead to destruction. #ιστορία #Δίκαιον #ΑρχαίαΕλλάδα (translated)
