we killed hundreds of thousands of human beings, a terrible, terrible civil war. we didn't arrive this way. we're still evolving. those countries are evolving. they don't go from a dictatorial system to a free system in five minutes. it is a tough journey. it is a very tough journey. it was a tough journey for this country, and we made enormous progress. we did the same thing with takistan. musharoff stepped up and supported us and the war on terror. he was very effective in scooping up terrorists in the cities of pakistan. not any good much at all in the federally administered tribal area. he sent his people in. tried to. got a couple hundred people killed in his army, trying to get in there. they have never controlled that part of the border between pakistan and afghanistan is wide open. our state department decided that it is important for musharraf to go to work in civilian clothes instead of his army uniform 6789 our president goes to work in civilian clothes. why shouldn't everyone else? so they pointed a finger, told him he should get out of the army. he di

meaning grant is terrible. and the reason for that is the consensus view among most modern historians is that grant was a great general. i sub jibe to that view. it's hard to get a good, curt reading that's plausible. so i don't. but i should mention that. during the war. right after the war. what happens to him after that. shows how americans like him. he becomes president. he's incredibly important. his memoirs -- how many of you read them. maybe an english class. the very unvarnished and clear. that we have we romanticism. then you have a turn where people become indifferent to him. you can also draw that out widely. he stills sees grant as a great general. i mean, what is to complain about. grant is bloodthirsty. and you get all sorts of stories. and there's a criticism of a blood thirsy general. then a few important military writes really start to rehabilitate grant. and this interpretation widely more or less repeats here. it's kind of the consensus view. some people will dispute piece, including myself.

also not terribly practical. speaking of non-practical, jay payne writes in with the same sort of idea. you have the torpedo in the center. you have these two tugs on either side. and you have a small boat in which you have several soldiers and several soldiers dressed as women pretending to be dressed women pretending to be a pleasure party. why someone would be sailing in the middle of a possible naval conflict, i don't know, but then they would, using a telescope, be able to tell when that floating torpedo was getting close to the merrimac. the two tugs would make for the hills and then basically pull the torpedo under the merrimac and that would be it. these people usually have more than one good idea per letter. he also said, if you don't like that idea, how about creating a false snout for the monitor that, again, is loaded with explosives. it somehow hooks onto the merrimac and you destroy it that way. a more simplistic way -- and also using retractible torpedo fences, that's another one that a lot of peop

no one disputes that rebel forces committed terrible atrocities there. the charges include murder, rape, adoption, slavery, and the recruitment of child soldiers. civilian populations were terrorized. many have their limbs hacked off by machete or axe. the question before the court was did charles taylor order those crimes. >> there is insufficient evidence to find beyond a reasonable doubt -- >> he was cleared of directly ordering the atrocities. the judges asked him to stand here that he was guilty of aiding and abetting of 11 crimes in the indictment. >> we unanimously find you guilty of aiding and abetting -- >> the judges said rebel forces have supplied charles taylor with diamonds from the sierra leone-. in return, he give them arms and ammunitions in the full knowledge they would commit crimes against civilians. charles taylor argued the, as a sitting head of state when the indictment was issued, he should be immune from prosecution. the court rejected the argument. prosecutors say today's judgment as a great step forward in their fight against th

it's terribly wrong for him but we have to listen to him and try to find out the reason what went wrong. i don't feel hate. i feel kind of bitterness. >> bitterness? >> because it's a pity, yes. >> and do you think -- >> of course i feel anger too. but i feel pitness, mostly. -- pityness. >> do you think the trial process will help the survivors to kind of try to move on? >> my daughter said so. it's a necessary process for her to see him, to hear him, to feel him, to understand what -- why this did happen. it's a way for her to move on. and the reason why society is necessary to hear him, to listen and to understand what -- in norway, we have the me troll, they are growing bigger in the darkness in the mountains. this is some things in life that you fear most. but then they are getting them into the daylight. it's possible to fight them and destroy them. i think it's a kind of the same way i feel in this case. >> because in a sense, your daughter was powerless last summer. she sits in that courtroom. he is surrounded by police. it is the survivors who got the power now as he is put on

usually, some of these ideas aren't terribly inventive. after ericson's monitor proves itself capable of taking on the merrimac, many people write in with all sorts of add-on gadgets, that their invention can make the monitor the ultimate killing machine if only the government will bichlt one ott the other things i was lucky enough to be able to find. this is an original drawing that erics ericson submitted to the french government for his original monitor in 1854. you can tell the basic elements of the monitor we know and love is there. already, in the 1850s, ericson has this idea of how to create this ultimate warship. the fear that you find in northern cities, especially the seaboard cities after the events of march the 8th is tremendous. the fear is that the merrimac will be showing up the next day at new york harbor, baltimore or philadelphia and that these cities will be razed or laid under contribution. one of the easiest ways some people write in on is saying, we need to lock the merrimac in the elizabeth river. lock her in or lock

it also is not terribly workable. the navy officers who command it find that, yes, it submerges but goes straight to the bottom. it does not float very well, doesn't answer the realm. the alligator is being sent to charleston when it sinks off cape hatteras, very close to where the monitor went down just almost a year before. commando rigs are also very popular. this idea that very level-headed montgomery megs first suggests that we need to take out the merrimac in emergency. let's put a bunch of men on different ships and have them jump on the merrimac and throw grenades down the smokestack. it is an object of singular fascination by a number of writers who view it as this achilles heel. this fatal link in the rebels armor that could cause immediate destruction if only handled properly. in fact, a number of people write in with this idea, let's send 10 or 50 or whatever number men, some of them wearing india rubber shoes to be able to run up the case mate and carrying hooked ladders, sometimes chisels to somehow take

he does terrible. all right. why is lee put in command of the army? >> johnson gets injured. >> johnson takes a bull let where is the other four star? he happens to be in richmond. put him in command. the rest is history. lee has nothing to do with that. you can make the same argument about various episodes in grant's career. so what is grant's career like? it wasn't great. he does pretty good in mexico. he has an excellent combat record in mexico. some of you probably heard of grant's -- he liked to -- what's the story? some issues with alcohol. and it's still controversial if that ever comes up during the war. some people say there are few episodes. some people say none at all. the consensus is he obviously does fine. but he gets out of the army. hi happens to know how to be an officer. then he gets various opportunities. he makes the most of them. all these things are strangely random. unlike lee. he has a distinguished career. not just in mexico. but throughout the rest of it. there's a lot involved in this. so that's something to consider about w

, terrible event, but that a million because of small pox and the ease, relative ease of imposing that kind of lethal itie on our society by people, not armed countries, not major armys, navys or air forces, so the structure the president put in place, mixture of things, the patriot act, military commissions, guantanamo bay, these were military commissions were old. they had been going on in our country since george washington. there was nothing really new about that. the armed forces of the united states had experience managing detention of prisoners of war, people who wore uniforms, carried their weapons openly, had a command structure. all they had to say was their name, rank and serial number and they could not give you any additional information nor could you get any additional information unless they decided they wanted to give it to you. that was what the armed forces was organized and trained and equipped to do. we were not organized, trained or equipped to deal with terror. nor in an environment where the lethalitie assist dark winter suggested was as grave for our country. so

it was a terrible mistake. >> do you think there are some in the media who agree with her, though? >> oh, sure, absolutely. but look, the media loves a story. this was a big, juicy story. this was a grenade essentially dropped into the presidential election cycle for one of the main reasons, what judy points out, about women. women will be a major battlefield for this election. barack obama won women as they traditionally do, they won them in 2008, but in 2010 republicans won women by a pretty substantial margin. so the democrats know they've got to get the democratic win back into the fold. so they had some success after the hha mandate -- >> is that the democrat line, the war on women? >> that's exactly right. the democrats created this bogus war on women to tar the entire republican party as being anti-women, and they did have success with that, but this comment may reverse a lot of those gains. >> your column, kirsten storks h was so brilliantly written. >> hilary rosen's and her defenders have been saying, i wasn't talking about the fact that she stayed at home with children,
