Secondly, I am not a democrat.

Let it be! You cant hold someone accountable when there isnt anyone elts that can do better. There has never been a war that has gone compleatly our way! Korea, We got pushed back to the DMZ, WWII the invasion of north Africa resulted in many mistakes and needless casualtys, etc etc etc. This is just one of thoes wars where we needed to learn how to fight it before we could get it right. As long as warfare and technology advances it will always be this way! Its nataral!
