Consider that the quote you cite was purportedly written by an elf living in Middle Earth. The Elves may have believed it to be a curse when it was not so but rather the Prophecy of the North. It doesn't take too much to predict that the Elves cannot defeat Morgoth unaided.

Good to see someone trolling the archives for interesting old threads. There's a wealth of stuff in there and plenty of room to continue old debates.
