11. What win?
How do you win? What is the metric for winning a ware in this day and age? We won the war in Iraq already by any measure possible. Our military forces crushed their military forces. Thats what a war is. But that is insufficient in this day and age to accomplish what it is some had hoped to accomplish. And now we are stuck over there trying to kill people into liking us. There is no win in that scenario. There is only loss.
