In this case, for instance, can you think of a bigger one?

I'll start the list. Woodrow Wilson - the League of Nations and the Versailles treaty - has to be the biggest foreign policy blunder of the US in all of its history.

Woodrow Wilson dragging us into World War I would probably be second on the list.

We are not far enough down the road to see which of Jimmy Carter's moves should be higher on the list - Iran or Panama. And don't forget the folks still dying in Rhodesia/Zimbabwe as a result of Carter's foreign policy in Africa.

Kennedy in Vietnam?

Suez probably won't even make the top 10 list.

Just a heads up.

Your site for gaming news, and, bitter political conflicts on the web.

These guys would argue about anything.

Thanks for your post. I have learned a lot on FR in the thirty minutes I've been on here tonight.
