I am hugely obsessed with military history, warfare, and what might have beens in history had the way things turned out they way they did history could have been completely different for us today...So I thought I would pose this question to you all..
For all you History Buffs...What was/were your most favorite turning points in History?? and why?

For me..One of my most favorite turning points in history was the Battle of Stalingrad, in which a severely malnourished Soviet Union military destroyed the German war machine at the gates of Stalingrad, which ultimately ended in the defeat of the Nazi regime, had the German's gotten through and destroyed Stalingrad and the Soviets, who knows what might have been? I also am fascinated by the battle at The Horns of Hattin, in which the Knights Templar and the Christian Army was annhilated by the army of Saladin.

Tell me of your favorite turning points in History, and why its your favorite

People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. Walter Mondale’s Op-Ed piece (7/30) complaining about Vice President Cheney is self-serving at best. Cheney is no worst then he was back then when he was the VP of the Carter administration. Let’s not forget that the economy during his term in office suffered from staggering 14 percent interest rates, saw the down sizing of our military and intelligence agencies to the point of ineffectiveness, which culminated in the feeble attempt to rescue our Iranian embassy diplomats who where consequently held and humiliated for 444 days. Carter’s lack of action and resolve at the time was the beginning of Iran’s disrespect for the USA now. It was a very depressing time for everyone. After his four years as VP, Mondale’s political career sank like a rock and never recovered. In my view, Mondale has little room to criticizing anyone.

Don't get me wrong, Alexander is one of my favorite, but don't you think his ambition ruined his country, he needed sources and soldiers for war and many soldiers died in battles and marches and the economy was devastated, yes he achieved great glory for himself and his people, but he left Greece in weakened state and was an easy prey for Roman invasion and later invasion.
