Thanks Billorites for another great VDH post!
War is always frought with mistakes but in hindsight the worst have occurred before GWB was CIC! The (left)leadership of this country has responsibilty for
devil’s bargains far more morally suspect than going into Iraq such as “General George Patton and others lamented that World War II had broken out over saving the free peoples of Eastern Europe—only to end with the Yalta accords ensuring their enslavement by an erstwhile American ally whose military we had supplied lavishly”

Yet if as a nation we instead believe that we cannot abide error, or that we cannot win due to necessary military, moral, humanitarian, financial, or geopolitical constraints, then we should not ask our young soldiers to continue to try.

That is the key statement in the article.

Is our goal destroying Islamic terrorism or creating a new world order?

A great history lesson. A wonderfully brutal depiction of the myriad errors made in ALL wars and a candid, spot on depiction of our laid back, leisure culture that believes WAR is a nintendo game and COMMITTMENT is something that can be replaced by the RESET button.
