...most foolish war since Emperor Augustus in 9 B.C sent his legions into Germany and lost them...


Yikes!...What war is the author of that quote talking about? C'mon..you know...that's right...Iraq! And who is this lilly livered peacenik? His name is Martin Van Creveld. He is considered one of the preeminent military historians on the planet. He is the ONLY non-American whose books are required reading for officers of the US Army. His book, "Transformation of War" is considered one of the finest treatises ever written. The full article quoted here can be found at Forward Magazine.

"For misleading the American people, and launching the most foolish war since Emperor Augustus in 9 B.C sent his legions into Germany and lost them, Bush deserves to be impeached and, once he has been removed from office, put on trial along with the rest of the president's men. If convicted, they'll have plenty of time to mull over their sins."

Stay Naked.
