nicely argued; that's what I do if I was on defensive, but most of the time I prefer to force an engagement instead of just waiting in the enemy's red zone... Admittedly though I base this on my experience when I tried three times as Germania to stand in an enemy's red zone and he just stood there and stared back at me until I lost patience and attacked him. The enemy's attacking you only matters if you're already at war with him and your chances of winning are significantly lower than his. Or so it seems; no faceoff in which I have parity or more in red/blue ratio has ended in the enemy attacking me, only when they are fighting battles of relief.
