We can fight in such situations, but can we control them over the long haul? Going into Afgh. was the right thing to do, but the Bush admin has pulled back on funding for peacekeeping activities outside Kabul and Kandahar. We seem to be finding ourselves more and more in the position of the Russians when their territorial control was limited to the cities.

The Russians where at war against most of the country and could not control the country. We are not at war with most of the country partially because we are not trying to control the country. I would say there is an important difference between the two.
