Anniversary of great historic victory over, uh, uh …
... To be on the safe side, why don’t we just call them radical fascist terrorist anti-freedom dead-enders? You know, like their predecessors in the seventh century who conquered half the world in the name of, uh, radical extremist fascist terrorist extremism. This, from Wikipida, was sent to me on the 10th:
The Battle of Vaslui (also referred to as the Battle of Podul Inalt or the Battle of Racova) was fought on January 10, 1475 between Stephen III of Moldavia and the Ottoman Beylerbeyi of Rumelia, Hadan Suleiman Pasha. [LA says: Doesn’t “Battle of Podul Inalt” sound like something from The Lord of the Rings?”] The battle took place at Podul Inalt (the High Bridge), near the town of Vaslui, in Moldavia (now part of eastern Romania). The Ottoman troops numbered up to 120,000, facing about 40,000 Moldavian troops, plus smaller numbers of allied and mercenary troops.
