Galad's position was actually closer to Elaida's at first. He got caught with his pants down, and surrendered to prevent his army from being destroyed. Elaida refused to negotiate, and Egwene decided to starve her out to avoid the same type of battle that Galad wanted to. (Ok, Tarmon Gaiden is close. More speed, less haste; we've already seen what happens when things get rushed.)
You call Galad revolutionary for actually considering working with "witches", while ignoring Egwene's (also minor) changes. Amazing!
Egwene has a prophesised arguement with Rand. Galad doesn't. This isn't anything special, since neither have any reason to be pleased with him at the moment.
The current Aes Sedai are pretty much nothing alike with their AoL counterparts. How can they be responsible for the Shadow (even ignoring whether the AoL Aes Sedai could be responsible for that)? If they are, I'd like to bring up Godwin's Law, and blame the Germans. Or not, because that would be ridiculous.
