I will never understand why we didn't finish the job we started, and carried it out to the proper conclusion. This is a perfect example of why not fighting wars to win them is far costlier than doing it half assed. What happens is the people "regroup", they don't go away. That's because the cancer is still there, and it just keeps coming back. Why would it? They're delusional to start with, and they just rationalize it as a minor setback, and they think they'll do it better the 'next time". By stopping short of total victory, the seeds were planted for what's happening now. Now it is going to cost us more in every way, a price that didn't have to be, had we done it properly the first time. Defeat your enemy as thoroughly as you can, grind him into the dirt, destroy him totally, and he won't be back, let him escape, and you just end up having to do it all over again. I can't understand why some people don't understand this.
