Who has been America's greatest military foe?

[trish]

Those damn eeeevilooshunists.

Ho Chi Minh for sure unless we count that Robert Ross guy who led the army that burned Washington - which has to be America's most embarrassing military moment. What with Madison fleeing in fear and everything..........

Those damn eeeevilooshunists.

And for most religious conservatives, Roe in the Roe vs Wade case.

Agreed on the Bohemian Grove thing - it's like the English public school system gone international. A Homoerotic smorgasbord under the guise of political and social engineering discussions.

As for the Bilderberg meetings....................what's to say, it's so obvious.

the Bilderberg group is very obvious almost to obvious. I would be more afraid of the guys making decisions while coked up and dancing naked. The list of bilderberg members (the incomplete list they put out) just seem like figure heads and suited CEO's incapable of making real changes not involving some tech device. that one seem like a big cocktail party. If some evil shit was going down do you think it would be guys in suits or high assholes raping girls and having gay orgies.

The bankers don't even have to meet in a shady room somewhere to fuck up the entire world economy and not just the US. Unfettered, amoral, don't give a fuck capitalism is a bigger threat to the world than any form of military these days.

Well, given the criteria set above, I'd have to say Hoh Chi Minh or whoever the lead commander of the Taliban is. Think quagmire.

I am.




Sorry, couldn't resist...

well hate to pop the Robert E Lee bubble but he never wanted the union to be disolved his love of virgina forced him to follow where she lead and served her honnoribly. had the north not used the andiconda as squessed the supply lines off the south would have won the war of northern aggersion.

for my two cents i would have to say America's greatest enamy is America herself. to evidance this thought look at the current political debate. a deteched look at it will reveal more about who the enamy truily is then anything else i can think of at the moment

It's interesting to note that many of the nominations are for foes in wars where the war aims at the outset were incoherent at best and downright deceitful at worst.

Spot any present-day parallels, folks?
