Gallipoli - Final Scene: "How Fast Are You Gonna Run?"

mattsy says...

Yes, Churchill formulated the plans for The Dardanelles/Gallipoli campaign, but you can hardly blame him for all of its failures. You could easily blame the decisions of Horatio Kitchener (Britain's unquestionable war hero and Secretary of State for War at the time) and other British officials as well (even Hamilton) who withheld manpower and munitions. Through hindsight, it's still up in the air whether the offensive maneuver would have worked if it had been viewed as completely viable. But it's a bit simple to paint Churchill as the only architect of this disaster, I don't think MINK is doing that, but I think that seems to be the historical misconception to this day.

Seattle man reads an open letter to the cop who arrested him

Mark Sidran was actually the Seattle City Attorney at the time of the WTO protests of 1999. If I remember correctly he was a mayoral candidate as well a few years back. He was definitely a 'forgetting' imbecile.
