To run may well be better than killing or fighting. It might be. This depends on the circumstances. However, as the leader of a nation there is only one choice. Running is not an option, so fighting is the only one. I think that there is also a time to stand and fight with your family too, but I'm not sure what the balance is. If you're up against criminals, you have a high responsibility for your family, and you are highly vulnerable. Getting your family out of harm's way should be a high priority on your mind.
