The least successful military in recorded (modern) history would be Iraq's in 2003, hands down. You know, the military that was such a "threat" to us that we had to invade them unilaterally?
I have never liked the French as much as in the last year. It took serious balls to stand up to Bush like that, the bully antics of the right wing on this board perfectly mirrors their heroes in office right now. We all know what happens to bullys.
Aurel, thanks for setting the record straight. My Dad, whose friend helped finger the "20th hijacker" in Minnesota months before Sept. 11th, (a long story but true), said, "they should have just handed him back to the French. He would have sung like a bird, and 9/11 never would have happened. The French know how to handle terrorists".
Actually, my Dad said, "the guy is a French National! (Massoui) They'd make him talk, then hand him back his nuts!"
But that would have been too logical for Bush and company, who couldn't find their ass with both hands. Who had absolutely NO POLICY on terrorism before 9/11, unlike the Clinton administration who had a fairly aggressive anti-terror operation. Too easy for the idiots who think that you can fight terrorism w/ tanks and bombers and by invading and occupying middle East countries. For a President who comes out and says, "Bring it on!" regarding guerilla fighters sniping our soldiers and Marines.
"Miserable failure" is far too mild a description for this president, it is almost too kind.
