"I produced many professional historians."
You produced two - one employed as a lecturer by the War Department, and a tabloid journalist - neither of which you had read, just selected the convenient bits, as is your practice,
You ignored the conclusions of all the Paxman programmes, and when quotes were produced from disillusioned veteran soldiers, you called them liars.
The historians which were produced to counter your arguments, you dismissed as "unqualified" or "revisionist", just as you have dismissed the author of the above article, (published in two history journals) as " blogger)
Hague resigned in disgrace after his incompetence and arrogance caused the death of many thousand of young men at Mons - you may revere him, the men at the front gave their lives for him - donkey that he was.      
You remain the clown you always were
