Jesus Herbert Christ this guy is such a defeatist pussy. Rather than just say "we've got to fight harder, faster and smarter then the bad guys and maybe our technique needs to be tweaked", he's willing to just throw in the towel and run home to mommy. Sometimes a good old fashioned ass whipping is what people need, and the insurgents need to be not only defeated, but humiliated in a very public way. Take the fight out of them so they no longer want to blow themselves up for Allah. Build hospitals, roads, schools. Give everyone who comes in a job and the ability to support their family. Have air conditioning in every building you know of. I know when I get hot, I get a bit cranky, so if you couple that with no food, water, or a way to support your family, blowing yourself up doesn't seem like that bad of an idea.
But of course, Michael Hirsh, author of the above linked article didn't think of that. He just wanted the comfort of thinking he went the moral high road and can sleep a little better at night under the umbrella of freedom that is provided by the very men and women he'd like to yank out of the battlefield before the mission is complete. Real men don't turn tail and run. Real men don't let people in need suffer and die. And real men don't knife people in the back when others are trying to do an honorable thing.
