Read the history of the French Revolution.

How did the French nation survive?
It will go on, unless some unexpected dramatic military event end it, for something like another year at least--many say for two years more, and some, three years more.

It'll stop, of course, whenever Germany will propose terms that the Allies can consider--or something near such terms; and it won't stop before.
By blockade pressure and by fighting, the Allies are gradually wearing the Germans out.

We can see here the gradual pressure of events in that direction.

My guess is that they won't go into a third winter.
Well, dear gentlemen, however you may feel about it, that's enough for me.
