Actually, this critique raises some very legitimate points.

Why don't you tell us which points you think are legimate. Then the points can (hopefully) be discussed without this thread simply turning into a name-calling exercise against the author of the piece.

Sure, I agree, but his most important points are factual fabrications. Of course we were stupid to back warlords, take sides, etc in what was meant to be a humanitarian mission.
