That we shouldn't be getting into fights for half ass reasons. I wasn't in favor of this to begin with.
Then, when we get into a fight, we have to use ALL MEANS to win. I don't believe in the Geneva convention. I believe in using large amounts of force to overwhelmingly destroy the enemy, achieve our objective and go home.
I believe in the war we fought in the same country in 1991. Vietnam would have not been fought the same way had I been Lyndon Johnson. We would have attacked the Northern Supply lines from the Chinese feeding North Vietnam. I would have just about destroyed every acre of North Vietnam and flooded the underground tunnels. Heck, I might have even started World War III by nuking the Chinese.
The point is we lost that war because of our 1/2 ass treatment of it, and we're losing in Iraq. Iraq will never be a democracy, not in 100 years. We need to pull back, steal as much oil as possible, then leave. Or we need to start WW III with the Arabs and nuke about 1/2 the middle east.
If I'm gonna fight, I don't mess around. That's the problem with the current Army, they want to have this BS police action and try to make Iraq a democracy which goes against just about everything that happens in Islam.
