Napoleon- Hero or Tyrant?

What's there to clarify?

Your statement as to how Napoleon Bonaparte was a coward.

Cowardice was evading Napoleon to not fight him directly, or burning your cities, or joining in more than 2 major powers to defeat a single nation army. Yeah he was a real coward.

Allying with others is cowardice? No, that's being smart.

The whole point is, Napoleon was not a coward, he took on the coalition and going into battle outnumbered and winning...that's not cowardly at all. As far as Allying, that's a different story. But cowardly none the less, if your using the coalition for an example. They feared Napoleon. He crippled the Austrians, failed against the russians but had a chance at redemption during his return. And gave the brits a nice slap. As for the Prussians, im not so sure.

You lost the point, I wasn't saying that the major powers allying with each other was cowardice, I was saying that they having combined huge armies still evaded battles with Napoleon directly, plus that shows that Napoleon was no coward for going after the world's most powerfull army (read Russia), although Napoleon's army was quite effective but in no way good enough to challenge the Russians in their home.

He raped the Prussians

Thanks, i was not so sure about Prussia at the time, all i really know is his campaigns against the Russians the Austrians and in egypt.

The Prussians never stood a chance.

Does anyone else find the British to be assholes at this time?

Anyways, Napoleon was completely justified in almost everything he did barring the invasion of Spain. I hate it when people compare the Coalition to the allies in World War 2, and Napoleon to Hitler in World War 2. The coalition were assholes, especially the British. I was watching the history channel one day and they said something about Napoleon being the anti-christ. I turned it off and walked away in embarrassment that I was watching the history channel .

Ah... You were probably watching the Nostradamus Effect... That programme is just complete bullcrap...

Yeah, Napoleon and Hitler are considered the first 2 anti-christs because they brought (not Napoleon really) suffereing to the world in their times and later the program explains why of this, because when the 3rd anti-christ comes, it is said by Nostradamus that he will bring the world into chaos.

Obviously it's you.

This antichrist stuff is just...ridiculous you can't involve everything with religion, gets me so frustrated when someone bringss religion where it don't belong but this is a topic that needs to be adressed elsewhere.

What they're doing is called 'postdiction'.

With all this Anti-Christ stuff, that reminds me that some people really believe that Obama is the 3rd Anti-Christ.

I had an english class last year and my teacher showed us a video about Nostradamus's profecy, it said that it could be someone from the US, not necessarily Obama, although Rick Perry's campaign surely make him the anti-christ. LOL

LOL.
