When Iran started supplying IEDs used against our troops, the war should have been expanded to include Iran....the world and Democrats be-damned.

Bush was weak and walked on egg shells....Obama shackled our troops with insane rules of engagement that prevented victory.

Once again, we fought a war by trying to be “nice” instead of just winning by breaking their spirits.

You break their spirits by killing anyone remotely supporting the terrorists and destroying their mosques, meeting places and sources of income.....like oil fields and refineries. To hell with the environment....those things can be fixed after the victory is assured.

I largely agree.

But the disturbing thing about this report is that two administrations knew Afghanistan was being prosecuted while everyone involved knew it was not winnable (and a gigantic cluster) but were telling We The People the exact opposite.

When that crap started to happen.

We should have told the Iran leadership, we will take your Imans out for each IED that harms or kills our people.
