gladiator
i was watching gladiator the other day and i began to wonder what ever happened to the general being the most adept warrior on the battlefield that rallied his men behind him. now it seems as though we choose our generals based more on behavior than military valiance and strategy. especially since the strategy going into iraq seemed like something i could have come up with. i’m not saying i would have gone into iraq i’m just saying i would’ve avoided killing innocent civilians a little bit more. you would think with all of our vast technology we could aim a little better.
