The military has a job.
It ain't building nations, restoring services, sharing democracy or any of that crap.
It's killing people and breaking things until the enemy screams "UNCLE".

It AINT WORTH IT.
That way, we don't find ourselves in a constant state of war with these morons.
Defense industry dont like that? Tough titty.
Make sewing machines instead.

Obviously no lessons learned in Vietnam and even in Iraq "except that during less than stable ecomomic times"...that it keeps our country from formally declaring bankruptcy. History tells us that we can't win a war in another country where their fighting forces don't wear uniforms, blend in with everyday citizens. I think history will show that to be the case for other warring countries who fought under similar situations.

The "collateral damage factor" is the only thing that keeps us, and more in particular, so-called "civilized" countries, from winning such a type of war as our nation has repeatedly experienced over the last near 50 years.
