I don't really understand why anyone thought him a hero.
Napoleon had lost the war too but he's a hero for a lot of nations in europe. Before he went to russia he gave europe law and some other things.


what nobody in Europe could do with bayonets, cannons and tanks, the Americans did with Coca Cola, rock'n'roll and entertainment
All fell (including ukraine, yugoslavia and other) but Russia went through communism (which was also british-American gift) went through Coca Cola, rock'n'roll and entertainment and some other in 90s... but survived and now is washing all the sht away.
What about spending race... nobody knows how long it's left fot dollar bubble to grow before it explodes. So who's finally the winner is a question.
That's why they are all so histerical. (when they are confident of victory they are calm and smiling, but now things are a bit different)


Great peacful but inconquerable nation is standing up again.
