The worst decisions of military leaders in history
In war, there are winners and losers. Sometimes, an army may be defeated simply because it faced a more potent and larger enemy than itself; other times, it may lose as a result of a set of strange circumstances that no one could have foreseen, or simply because a cunning opponent deceived it. On rare occasions, an army may be defeated as a result of bad weather, as happened with the Mongol fleet led by "Qobli Khan" in 1281, which was destroyed by a typhoon when it tried to cross the narrow passage between Korea and Japan. But, there are those battles in which one of the parties failed only because of the absolute incompetence of a commander in them.

How Wangari Maathai saved Uhuru Park
In 1989, Wangari Maathai became privy to speculation that a huge building was going to be erected in Uhuru Park. Immediately she heard about it, she wrote a letter to the Finance Minister enquiring about the building. The details she found out about the project were appaling. The proposed building was the Times Media Trust Complex. It would be 60 stories high and would fundamentally alter the facade of the city as it was. Uhuru Park was already shrinking as a result of encroaching; such a gigantic complex would end the park altogether. The construction would be funded by a huge loan that the government could never be able to payback. After discussing it with the executive committee of the Greenbelt Movement, it was time to take action.
