Off topic, but Tuchman wrote an excellent book on 14th century France. Her research and writing was superb. As result, I am going to get this book from library..

That was A Distant Mirror. Great stuff.

It's hard to imagine a more delusional approach to this thing than this author's. Bush removing a dictator with an established track record of gassing his people was "imperialism", 0bama trying to remove a dictator suspected of gassing his people is "justice". Wilson was an internationalist idealist whose approach was for collective security; 0bama had his representative walk out of the UN and has precisely one ally in the thing: France, and now intends to "keep us out of the war" by waging one.

This is nothing more serious than a child chanting "Bush evil, 0bama good." Woodrow Wilson does nothing for this ridiculous argument but muddy the waters, precisely as intended.
