This is where the problem has been for decades - the politicians call the shots, not the military. Politicians are worried about what the public is going to think, if their party will win the next election, and what their legacy will be. These three things have nothing to do with winning a war.
So you support the use of tactics the liberals will disagree with after the war is won. Controlling the peace has proved to be the problem, not winning a war against conventional troops.
