You don't get it...

We're not taking the fight to them, we're creating more of them than we're killing.

The end goal isn't a body count, it's a safe world. It's precisely how we're taking the fight to them that's the problem.

Our strategy has been ignorant and incompetent from day one which is wasting and diminishing the effectiveness of our troops. Given that blood and money are on the line, this is a big deal indeed.

Did we learn nothing from Vietnam?
