Hi Webster, perspective is a wonderful thing isn't it...??? for instance, IMO and that of many, many others and "we" being the USA. we won in Vietnam... we won in WWII defeating Germany and Japan... we have won in Iraq... we have won in Afghanistan... Russia voluntarily left Afghanistan... Rome self destructed thru self indulgence... the list goes on... <It is historical fact that the Tribe with the biggest, bestus, weapons most always wins...> regards

West your history analysis is bit weak. Rome fell -after a long decline- to the barbarians. They were not called barbarians for nothing. They had biggest best weapons. Germany fell to daylight terrorist bombing. The bombers got the orders to get to the target. "As you see the cathedral you are right on top of it, bomb everything around." I'm not sure if you flew over Germany cities to see what this means. Japan got two cities hit by the best and biggest weapons and capitulated. Nowadays, biggest and best weapons resulted of giving rise to terrorism because no one can fight a conventional war. The only way is to go unconventional. The US military might will fall to the unconventional weapons of terrorism which will become the biggest best weapon.
