If we’d fought WW2 the way we’re fighting this “war on terror” (and I include Dubya as well as Obama) we’d still be working our way through Normandy and Guadalcanal.

No, we'd be trying to stop the Wehrmacht from crossing the Mexican border.

Ain’t that the truth.

Back then we accidentally and intentionally killed civilians on the enemy side, and it worked.

Today we are obsessed with the idea that to win, we can’t kill civilians on the enemy side, and it isn’t working.
