Getting the other guy to say something like this should be the objective of offensive (i.e. going into another guys territory and breaking things) military action. Anything less is to throw away the lives of our men, and to uselessly take the lives of those on the other side. Weak action only deepens the anger of the other side and makes him believe that he can outlast you.

Carl,
i could not agree more.
but nowadays that is a hard sell.
most do not seem ready to accept the history lesson that to end a war you must apply maximum violence.
