I sense a great deal of entirely understandable idignation about this idiot. To do him a lasting injustice it may be better to make him seem ridiculous rather than just blood-thirsty.

I like the numbers thing. I've been thinking that we could portray him as the great unifier of asia - forcing vietnam to reunify by pissing everyone off. At least that's what I was trying to do. --Sog1970 15:54, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Also, everyone on this side of the Atlantic knows at least a few lines of The Soldier even if it's only "there is a corner of some foreign field that is forever England". On the other hand, I have no idea if anyone over there will understand that bit if they've never heard the poem --Sog1970 15:58, September 18, 2010 (UTC)
