HANSON: NOT SO WISE

Nationalist chest-pounder extraordinaire Victor Davis "Let me explain why all this is just like the Peloponnesian War" Hanson has a snide little victory lap of a column wherein he criticizes those experts (he would probably want quotes around the word experts, but I won't do that, because I'm not a dick, or at least not as much of one as Vic)who predicted a bad outcome for the Iraq War. Leaving aside that the people that Hanson calls out have been vindicated in many of their warnings, let's use the magic of the internets to see what old Vic himself was writing on the eve of the Iraq invasion:

The fact is that U.S. Marines will find more deadly weapons in the first hours of war than the U.N. did in three months.

Excellent.
