I do not choose sides in any of histories wars.  It is history.  Although we can second guess what should have occurred, we still can't change the outcome.  If we could change history, we wouldn't be here to make these critiques yet, the history would remain the same.

Those who wish to argue history should, instead, look towards discussing the future of our history as not to repeat the ill conceived decisions that led us to our current status.

Enjoy what you have and not look to what you might of had if...
