I would almost bet that most military families would much rather have their sons and daughters fighting in a war as if we were there to win it. We should have learned from Vietnam that pacification and winning the hearts and minds of the people has little reward. The only thing that the Arabs and insurgents respect is overwhelming force.

The Vietnamization strategy would have worked IF Congress had not started denying funds.
What is YOUR strategy? Please provide it with details.
