    Yes, it can, and ground operations will lead to the defeat of the majority party electorally.

    It's probably because the United States military has extremely strict rules of engagement, whereas these thirdworld shitholes and other agressors, do not.

    If we adopted the "win at any cost" mentality that many of the others around the world had, we would certainly not "do poorly"

    I thought that the "win at all costs" was already being used.

    And as for the rules of engagement.
    The military said some personnel involved "failed to comply with the rules of engagement and the law of armed conflict,"
