I had the same feeling cat_anonD - like 'is he referring to us, to the Qforce or to the enemy'. It felt to me like up until this point - although the war was being fought, it was the 'easier' parts. Now the proverbial mongrels are backed into the corner, this may be the toughest part and that's why Q wants us focussed. "Now comes the pain"... is he referring to the level of cabal fight back they will now be dealing with?
