Rome won wars all the way into oblivion fighting wars is a loser's game especially when the wars serve no purpose in achieving any object at incredible cost against no particular counterparty without hope of ending the only reason the team USA has not lost in it's current wars is that even should team USA wish to surrender, there is no one particular counterparty to surrender to the only reason team USA has not won in it's current wars is that it is not allowed to win the war, declared to be a 'fly paper' by the wastrels championed by stratfor is exactly that, and team USA is stuck without an out everytime team USA threatens any substantive players, shoulder fired anti aircraft missiles magically make appearance to do "black hawk down" - iow, there can not be any win in a war where one's unconvinced soldiers are too busy chaperoning, guarding, loading, unloading and burning fuel, when the opposition is all around and collecting tithe on same fuel Russians are happily transporting USA armored cars on their one way trips china is busy building roads at exorbitant cost and dealing with mineral rights Iranians are being naughty whenever it suits them pakistanis are gorging on profit from right of way safe passage Indians are feeling secure from team USA focus each gallon of diesel cost usd 70 by the time it is burnt in afghanistan and you think there is a remote possibility that team USA can win that war? Do you mean a win like Iraq is somehow viewable as a win? Ten victories like Iraq and it would be "game over, player one" just how naive do you wish to appear?
