What do you base your opinions on Haig on, Salesie? Opinions, for instance, like the one you highlight in bold, that it's irrelevant whether Haig was academically stupid or clever when we are trying to assess his actions? Irrelevant whether he was academically stupid? Well I'll have a laugh with you on that one at least! You now criticise my evidence used in support of my case, but you've provided zilch in the way of evidential references in support of your own assertions.

ciao,

GAC

I feel like I'm marking time, GAC - so I'll help you out just this once (and I mean just this once).

The point of the first part of the sentence is: were his actions/decisions stupid or not - not whether he could pass a bloody exam or not! And the rest of the sentence needs no reference, it's based on life experience - it's called original thought, and to me a self-evident truth. Now do you get it?

Cheers-salesie.

Well done Salesie, that must be some kind of Forum record.
