STUPID WARS:
A Citizen's Guide to
Botched Putsches, Failed Coups, Inane
Invasions, and
Ridiculous Revolutions
Ed Strosser and Michael
Prince
Review by Roy Murry,
Author
The title tells it all.
I will add that humans do not understand history, or they would not continue to
make the same mistake over and over again.
However, some humans, no, many humans, are just stupid and or vicious.
Mr. Strosser and Prince
give a precise historical evaluation of wars that should not have happened, and
others that leaders should have thought out before going ahead. Some conflicts
are diabolically stupid.
I will not explain each
nutty endeavor. I will say: I laughed and cried at the explanations the authors
gave for humans murdered for ego, pride, and territory - confounding to an
intelligent person.
The read is clear, to
the point, and enjoyable. I will reread each chapter.
You should read it once
to remind yourself that we are all human.
