When you wage regular wars against definite entities, or with definite goals, you know when you've won (or lost). We know we defeated Saddam Hussein in '91 because we kicked him out of Kuwait and destroyed most of his military (for a while). We knew we lost Vietnam, bceause the Commies took it over.

General, vague wars against things that have existed since Adam's sin are not won or lost, they just perpetuate - that's my point.

Ok, so you vote to declare victory and get on with things. We can't win so why try. We can't define an end date so don't bother. We will just address every 911 as a simple criminal act and let the county Mounties handle it.
