...most historians...

Ah, Jaysus, here we go again with fuckwit telling us what historians he's never read have to say. Born with a caul, he was.

And do look up fee.org's obvious bias and political agenda, clearly stated on their website.

By the way, fuckwit, you've said you were gone half a dozen times, yet here you are again.

And now, a musical interlude!

Pirates of Penzance, Gilbert & Sullivan:

GENERAL. Away! away! . .
POLICE. (Without moving.) Yes, yes, we go!
GENERAL. These pirates slay.
POLICE. Yes, yes, we go.
GENERAL. Then do not stay.
POLICE. We go, we go.
GENERAL. Then why all this delay?
POLICE. All right! We go, we go;
Yes, forward on the foe! Ho! ho! ho! ho!
We go, we go, we go! _ Tarantara-ra-ra !
GENERAL. Then forward on the foe!
ALL. Yes! forward !
POLICE. Yes! forward!
GENERAL. Yes! but you don't go!
POLICE. We go, we go, we go !
ALL. At last they really go ! Tarantara-ra-ra!
