Just like every war after ww2.
If ya ain't willing to kill everything that moves then don't expect to win any wars.
That's me "doing a logic"
@earl-of-trumps saidKorea is still split and Iraq is a mess.
@Booger said - "And the USA still lost.

-------------------------------
I get your point, but you are not exactly correct. Korea and Iraq saw the US win.
That's a win?
For perspective...
After 9/11 Americans should have leveled the middle east and done away with everyone and put Americans over their to get the oil.
You can't win a war unless you are willing to kill everything.
I'm afraid we live in a time where we won't ever see a war being won because of people's unwillingness to do what it takes to win.
Anyways....I don't want to get off track with the thread...you know...
