That Alexander dude was a h&^ny ba&%tard wasn't he?<g> Well I can understand he was only in his 30s when he showed up over there,I belive around 350 B.C but I am not quite sure.

Several days ago, PBS featured Alexander, his journeys and conquests. He caused so much destruction and death on his war path, it was unbelievable. As a military strategist he was very good. But using his military skills against innocent people and peaceful kingdoms on his path was unacceptable. Who ever called him Alexander the Great is a fool. He should have been called Alexander the cruel. It was told that the Alexander's army took several days to decimate the vanquished population in each place he went. Know that he had 60 K soldiers with him. He was very disheartened when his male lover died. That was the only one instance when he felt pain for a dying person.
