[QUOTE="Jeff Jolley, post: 892947, member: 66905"] There is only one point to war and that is to make life so horrible, so miserable and so hard on the the enemy that they no longer want to be a part of the war. You can't do that by trying to play by rules. The problem we have is that we don't want to piss anyone off, we want to win the approval of the people over there, instead of making things so hard that the people themselves want the Taliban, Al-Qeida and other terrorist groups out of the country so that things can get better. We are wiping noses and patting heads, these people have no incentive to wage this war themselves. I have a son who has been through the games being played there, he's had his share of bullets thrown at him only to be told (stop now, you can't chase them over there because that country doesn't want us to cross their border) in the mean time the Taliban sit and laugh because we let them just walk away basically. We are in a war over there... but we are not waging war there :angry: [/QUOTE]
