4 last-ditch defence
последнее, отчаянное сопротивление, оборона до последней капли крови [происходит от выражения die in the last ditch; см. die in the last ditch]‘And do you aim, in case of war, to conquer and control whites as whites have conquered and controlled you?’ ‘Oh, no. You see, war as an instrument of progress is unthinkable. As a measure of last-ditch defense, we may have to resort to it from time to time.’ (W. Du Bois, ‘Worlds of Color’, ch. XVIII) — - А в случае войны ставите ли вы своей целью, победив белых, властвовать над ними так, как они сами господствовали над вами? - Конечно, нет. Мне кажется, что война вообще не может быть орудием прогресса. Возможно, время от времени нам и придется прибегать к ней, но лишь как к крайней мере защиты.
