Jim, re your last post, Max Hastings is still an acclaimed military historian.
I showed you that the Guardian refers to him as that so what is your opinion worth.

In amongst all that tosh you posted and I alone read, there was one obscure historian who questioned that Britain should have gone to war.

No other historian now says that, and that is why none of you have found one.

No historian would challenge that the British people overwhelmingly believed the war just and necessary, and that is why none of you have found one.

No military historian would challenge that the British Army was generally well led, and that is why none of you have found one.
