Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Joseph Ellis, an authority on the Revolutionary War, says that George Washington lost more battles than he won against the British but recognized that all he had to do was to keep his army together and hang on.

Iraqi Civilians Widely Terrorized In Midnight Searches
If six of 10 Iraqis say it is okay to shoot at American troops maybe the reason why is they are being brutalized, wrongly imprisoned, subjected to midnight searches, run down by truck convoys and gunned down at checkpoints.

United States of England, Or, Rule On Britannia!
Apart from a flirtation with democracy after the Revolutionary War, by 1846 the U.S. had become imperialist, taking half of Mexico.
