When I was a child I thought all wars ended in “unconditional surrender.” I became an adult and realized there are lots of nuanced ways to win or lose a war.
And this was a loss for America even more humiliating than our loss in Vietnam. By an order of magnitude.
“And this was a loss for America even more humiliating than our loss in Vietnam. By an order of magnitude.”
Truth.
“When I was a child I thought all wars ended in ‘unconditional surrender.’”
It was lies then, also. We fight civilized wars now. We don’t bomb civilians...we’re told. We don’t use illegal weapons. We don’t kill against the US. We don’t hide anything from the people we protect and defend. We don’t program our future citizens in schools. There are a whole bunch of we don’ts that we do. And no one knows about it except those that have a need to know based upon the rule makers needs, not the citizens.
