Another reason to celebrate your buddy Rumsfeld as the hero of the 21st century.  |

The events set into motion by rumsfeld will have major impact on how things play out. the map of the middle east and the politics there will change dramatically.
i said rumsfeld was interesting and influencal and, yes, even entertaining. When people make comments like "he's a small man" they are allowing their personal feeling to interfere with an accurate analysis of the situation. History will not be written by the winners nor will it be written by sappy lefties or crazed right wing fanatics. History is written by Historians |

Winston Churchill: "History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it".
He could be considered one of the winners of the Second World War and history could well be more critical of him than it usually is. |
