Don’t agree with Hitler being on this list considering he lost the war and led his country to ruin. Not to mention the numerous military mistakes he made during the course of the war.

Seeing the rogues gallery above it is simply to his credit that Khalid bin Walid has been omitted. Defeating the muslims at Uhud, united Arabia in the Ridda wars, then crushed both the Byzantine and Persian Empires within 2 years. The lands he conquered have retained their Muslim identities and today he remains an inspiration for the freedom fighters of the world.

Joshua Ephraim should of been on the top 10. Wasnt undefeated. Didnt control the entire world. However he did live to be 110. Many people can be the best. How many can stay on top? Hitler didnt even last 7 years. (Powell has him beat) Osama Bin Laden took on the Soviet Union and bankrupted them. Almost did the samething to the United State’s union. (US will recover they dont know what they were up against.) Bin Laden lasted 20 years as a leader in the post weapons of mass destrution era. To me thats deserves a merrit of top war strategists next to Hannibal. Alexander the great was a good leader. however he has the same problem as most of the others. He didnt live that long, nor did he know both offence and defence. (Hannibal was all offence. Robert E Lee was all defence.) All around, versitility speaking, Joshua Ephraim has my vote for the greatest all around military commandor.

Genghis Khan is the best! He has not lost a single battle and nearly conquered the whole of europe , if he did not die of sickness, he will rage throughout europe

WTF napoleon only forth and after julius caesar??? he was a good general i am not deniying that but he only fought against tribes not against well organised armies, and he got beaten by the gauls when they united against him, how pathetic is that??
Napoleon, he beat 5 international alliances, countries with organised armies and good ones to
Caesar would have gotten his ass whooped by Napoleon dont be rediculous you should swap their places
