I don't know if I'd want a person to quit if they had poor performance after a 34 day war. There's got to be other factors in his decision to resign. If he made decisions that were so poor that people needlessly died, then I can see why he'd want to resign.
However, war is an ugly thing and if the person learns from the experience and his enemy, he might be a much more effective leader then someone who comes in fresh off the street. Enemies can and do adapt, making defeating them much more difficult. When someone resigns, I understand their reasoning behind it, but still in the back of my mind I think, "quitter". An effective leader learns from his mistakes and the mistakes of his enemy. Every leader fails, and it's what they do with that failure that turns them from a normal leader into a great leader.
