| To Win A War, Fight One |
| 2023-10-10 |
| [Daniel Greenfield] As highly civilized people, we're lost touch with some basic concepts. Like war. We complain that we never win wars anymore, but that's because we don't fight them. Instead we have limited interventions against insurgents. We try to stabilize failed states. Sometimes we go in, take out a few terrorists and then go back home. Veterans, whose wounds are very real, sit around wondering what it was all for. So do the families of the men who died fighting in a war that was never a war. To win a war, you have to fight one. If your enemy is fighting a war and you're fighting something less than a war, the enemy will win. Police actions, nation building exercises and the like have vague and poorly defined objectives, while wars have very clear ones.
