Default Aphids?

This is the first year cabbages have looked like they were going
to survive long enough to have a crop, until yesterday. Suddenly,
leaves in the center are shriveled up and masses of tiny insects
are inside. My guess is they're aphids, what do you think?

A Google search gave some ideas. I tried mixing Palmolive dish
soap with water and spraying all the plants.

It may be a little early to tell, but there doesn't seem to be any
change yet. Are there any sure fire ways of getting rid of them
without using poison?

Training on how and when to lie to your enemies and victims
from whom you want to steal all their possessions and enslave
them. Encouragement to kill anyone who you might perceive to
be a threat. What more could a psychopath want from a religion?
