>> What you fail to recognize is that we have grand ability in war, and choose not to use it, over and over again.

This is a myth. Give me an example of where America has refused to use its military might out of the goodness of its heart. We always use as much force as we deem necessary and no more, just like everyone else.

What you seem to be saying is that because we sent 5:1 well equipped soldiers under heavy air cover into Fallujah against a bunch of rebels with only basic weapons, we have withheld our might. Do you really believe it would have been in the US interests to nuke the city?
