Hillary Clinton. Was lazy in starting her 1st campaign then lost all momentum to Obama before she got started.
Then took a job as Secretary of State and royally screwed herself because she couldn't take the job seriously. Even still she was smoking Trump who couldn't stop talking about his "Mexican judge" but decided to take the month of August off. Trump recovered in that time and the rest was history.
Even after losing to Obama she could have taken an 8 year vacation instead of pretending to be SoS and cruised to the presidency.

Runner up in recent times: Yevgeny Prigozhin
Built a private army and drove straight to Moscow. Could have easily taken it but made a deal and stopped. Died in a plane "accident" months later to the surprise of NO ONE.

I am surprised by the lack of mention of the American Retreat from Afghanistan three years ago. On an individual fafo achievement level the photos of the guys falling off the giant plane at 1000 feet is memorable. On a group fafo basis the killing of 13 young American troops left outside the security zone was awful military leadership. Abandoning 8 billion dollars of military equipment with no plan to disable/render useless was a military leadership fafo. Abandoning many thousands of local personnel that supported the us is the ultimate fafo

There was a man, a Father, who had a Son .... that Son was ...... he had to endure something from another man, as a child, that no child should have to endure.
That Father took action and executed the POS who had laid his hands on his Son.
The Son is a member of this community.
I call it the ultimate FAFO story.

One of the most complete annihilations in American and world military history. Pakenham's and Gibbs' remains are somewhere in the soil in an oak grove on the southern edge of New Orleans.

Russian Navy sailed to the other side of the world to fight Japan in 1904 and lost their entire fleet and most of their possessions in the Pacific.
Not saying that I don't believe you but if that did happen wouldn't that be the most Russian thing ever?

Sadly had she not lost a battle or two it might go down as one of the major arse rapings in the world..... basically someone touched her boat.
She was very clever in her tactics.
I bet next tine they will pay tribute....

When I think of Crassus, it's Olivier's memorable portrayal of him in 1960's Spartacus.

He believed a multigenerational struggle against the slavs would keep Germany vital. TL;DR, the invasion of Russia was a feature, not a bug. It wasn't a stupid mistake on Hitler's part, it had to happen for Nazi ideology to be internally consistent.
Hitler was racist against the Jews, as is well known. Lesser publicized is his absolute disgust for and reviling of the Slavs. Nazis viewed Slavs as subhumans and is why they were so completely barbaric on the eastern front compared to the western front.
