I've little doubt you're correct about what the talking heads will be saying, but that sure doesn't make it true.

I doubt seriously we'll be hearing about the tragedy's this will cause and the cost regarding military readiness.

Flying fighter planes is one thing, even being a part of crews in larger aircraft but when it comes to subs, ground pounders, Rangers/SEALS/Delta it's a whole different story.

That is what I meant when I wrote this. It is what they will SAY.

And to them, in a weird Orwellian way, it will be true, because to them the definition of “successful” is entirely plastic to suit their needs.

And that definition won’t have anything to do with system capability, but all to do with some other political goal.
