Great interview. However, VDH should reconsider using the people of the Crimea as his example of the need for disproportionality in warfare. The mainly Russophone people of Crimea didn't start the military conflict in Ukraine. They peacefully voted to leave Ukraine shortly before Ukraine voted for independence. It was the Kyiv government that used force of arms to submit them to the control of Kyiv. Later, in 2014, as Obama acknowledged, the US helped sponsor a violent and unconstitutional regime change that led immediately to passage of legislation abolishing Russophone minority rights in Ukraine, including Crimea. VDH is an impressive scholar of warfare, but he isn't well acquainted with the Former Soviet Union.

I’m fascinated by this guy! He knows so much about history yet he supports a wanna be dictator who precisely fits the description of the Antichrist in the Bible. He supports a guy who will end our republic. Maybe VDH is lost in trees of history but unable to see the forest. When the Caesar’s ended the Roman experiment in self government they crucified the living God! Oh well God works out all things for good in the end 😊

This was great and spoke to the exact reason why I study the classics. History especially. Great written works throughout history show snapshots of human nature. The good and the bad. Heroic ideals to aspire towards, and the hubris, other mistakes to avoid.. if used in the right way, it can help us aim our life, our actions in a better direction. Towards success and excellence. Helping us while helping those around us.

A cure for politics is to stop taking politic so seriously, the real problems are spiritual not physical and they can't be solved by emotional and physical means, which is all politics are.

Lee Trepanier suggests (or meant to suggest) that for Strauss you cannot be both a philosopher and a believer. While S does note that in a modern context you cannot be at once a philosopher and a theologian, he does not at all dismiss the classical notion of fides quaerens intellectum: man believes for the sake of understanding via reflection. The problem S addresses is one of *priorities*. For S's Platonic classics (both ancient and medieval), the philosopher-as-philosopher does not believe, BUT this does not mean that he rejects the content of belief. Quite to the contrary: he seeks to understand it. That is the work of natural reason, which illuminates human certainties from within, exposing them to a reality transcending them (qua human certainties). A divine reality. __ps On Strauss as both philosopher and (religious) Jew, see Kenneth Hart Green's _Jew and Philosopher: The Return to Maimonides in the Jewish Thought of Leo Strauss_

It is not clear how if at all Mark Blitz's Strauss is not a Spinozist. Blitz speaks of a conservative defense of a common sense beyond which, however, the philosophers seeks (true) knowledge; he also speaks of "the possibility" of natural right. Where, however is the Platonic sacredness of common sense? Where the *actuality* of natural right? For a parallel presentation of Strauss, see Hilail Gildin's Chicago conference intervention on YT.

Not too many know Mark Twain began in the proconfederate militia in Missouri (his native city Hanibal was at the edge of the the proconfederate Little Dixie in Missouri) in 1861, but he became prounionist in Nevada by 1863 and he helped and published Grant's autobiograph.

Apropos of the Midwestern farmers as fighters...it was said that when Philip Sheridan was sent as an observer to the Franco-Prussian war...he telegraphed back to Grant..."Give me the Wisconsin regiments and I'll whip both of these armies at the same time!"......

General Westmoreland was a great General in Vietnam. He wanted to destroy the NVA, but Washington didn't want that. He was fired and replaced by a yes man General. Westmoreland would never have agreed to just walking away without winning the war. The democrats would not fund the Vietnam War anymore. The democrats are the communist that Patton wanted to defeat in Russia. The Russian people would have been on our side. Same thing happened in Korea. The North Korean army had been wiped put. We were fighting the Chinese by the end of the war. The state department has had their hands in not letting the communist be defeated. Afghanistan is another example. If the state department has their way Hamas will not be defeated. America is in grave danger if Trump doesn't win in November. Right now he is our only chance of turning this around without a civil war.

Patton wanted tanks And 1000 gallons of fuel so he could go into Russia and defeat communism. He was killed in a jeep. His famous quote "Don't die for your country, make the other son of a Bitch die for his."
