re: #172 Fairly Sure I’m Still Obdicut
You don’t have to allege a conspiracy, just a mistake, bad assumption, or screwup. Also, the US and Obama are not synonymous, and it’s entirely possible for people in the US to screw up without it being Obama’s fault.
Now that’s some class A, shiny, brand-spanking new revisionism. Still has that new-revisionism smell.
if you want to read some interesting revisionism, pick up the current issue of Strategy & Tactics. It has a very interesting look at pre-WWI German war planning and posits that what we think of as the ‘Schlieffen Plan’ was actually the brainchild of von Moltke the Younger.
