I wonder if there will ever again be a war where this kind of gadgetry can bring it to a defined end. Are we fighting a war that might have occurred 40 years ago?

Seems all wars these days end in insurgencies. This kind of stuff is of little value against un-uniformed personnel. And it seems no one on our side has the will to effectively put down an insurgency.

Please convince me that I'm too pessimistic. :(

And it doesn't help much against a nuke hidden and shielded in a fishing boat, either.
