My my, hastiness!! hoom, hoom!!
While I feel that drawing historical parallels is necessary for this thread, I'd like to ask posters to continue debates that are specifically historical rather than overtly Tolkien-related by personal mail. (We wouldn't want to get shut down now would we?)
And just chill out for goodness sake ladies and gents!!

Meanwhile, back at the thread, TheSquireof aragorn, I think you'll find that the eagles 'cast the goblins over the precipice'(or similar), though I'll concede that this does not necessarily mean that they had physical contact. Perhaps they simply terrified the goblins into a stampede which ended with a long fall off a short cliff -ooops! I'd certainly imagine that the orcs were demoralised by the appearence of the eagles, much the same as the Morgul army when they found the Corsairs were in fact Aragorn and co., a nasty surprise really.
PS. Have we found no-one with pet wolf theories? (That's pet theories on wolves, not theories on pet wolves..... whatever)
