I didn't know you were elected to speak for everyone else. And your pejoratives -- "prejudices" and "obsessions" -- are out of line and insults to intelligence. The point I made was consistent with the theme of military "stupidity," first raised by "expert" Mr. Harris. And the point I made...

My point was in response to yours, which invited response. Yours is held to be in context, mine is held not to be. "Experts" are held to a different standard. I asked that my account be deleted. That has been ignored.

Right. Our military is never stupid. There were a series of blunders leading up to the attack on Pearl Harbor which weren't made on the Japanese -- stupid -- side. They were made on the US side. I'm sure if you actually think about it, you'll come up with additional instances of our...
