No, I think is that “winning” is actually winning, not the illusion of victory. Unfortunately, in the West, we’ve allowed ourselves to be confined to a set of rules that make victory impossible. We want bloodless, push-button victories with cruise missiles, drones and no collateral damage. What we really do is inflict pinprick damage on a foe who is able to quickly adapt and recover. That is not a formula for an MSM soundbite, but not real victory.
sorry, my comment was unclear.
Winning is losing in obama’s lexicon.
Just like he thinks he can lead from behind.
obama prefers losing

Would be better to just stay home then. ANYONE who has ever been in combat knows that destroying buildings does NOT kill the enemy. Yes, there are times when it works to your advantage to remove a building, particularly if it is occupied by the enemy at the time. It is NOT the building that is going to shoot back at you when the SHTF.
