"David Lloyd George waited until after Haig's death to use him as a scapegoat to deflect blame away from himself for some of the most calamitous decisions made during the Great War"
So lets's see if we have this right; while Britain's youth was dying in the mud of Europe, back home, the politicians and the military were at each others throats as to who was to blame for "some of the most calamitous decisions made during the Great War", which coincides with what was being claimed by 'Oh What a Lovely War'- particularly in the ballroom staircase scene.
Is this your idea of "a well-conducted war"?
You appear to have gone over to the enemy on how the war was conducted!
As one of Keith's historians dealing with Haig pointed out, as far as historians are concerned, the jury is still very much out on his abilities as a military leader - though, I'm sure, we have a couple of 'experts' who know better
