We are not trying to win this war militarily, … but some kind of political element to this is essential and we are looking at every aspect of this. We are talking to all our other nations about it.” Zakaria interrupted, asking: “What do mean when you say you don’t want to win this militarily?” “I didn’t say we don’t want to win this militarily. I said we can’t win it militarily because a pure military victory is not possible, as Gen. [David] Petraeus and his colleagues have repeatedly said,” Holbrooke replied, adding that both Pakistani and Taliban leaders need to be engaged on a political level.

That is awesome.

Hey Dumb Asses, we have the bomb and a Superior bomb.

If you don’t like our demands we can give you another set that your really won’t like, and then we can send you all too Allah which you and him are really not going to like.

If victory can’t be defined, it can’t be achieved. An all out complete WW II type victory would require a Congressional declaration of war, a million+ man draft to conquer and occupy, rationing, price control, no tax cuts, and Rosie the Riveter back in the plant [after it has been brought back from where it was exported]. Figure out how how much of this is politically achievable and then define victory.
