| #7 Home court advantage + it was never about "winning" as far as CIA, Pentagon and the Beltway Bandits were concerned. All way over Tucker's poor little head. He tied those bow ties too tight for too long before he got too weak to keep doing that... |

| #5 Go read the long letter on Isty from a GO. THOUGHTS ON AFGHANISTAN, from a senior military officer with whom I am acquainted: "Of course, I blame President Biden for the disastrous retrograde operation still unfolding. But let us not allow that to deflect us from heaping even more blame on military leaders. They stonewalled President Trump rather than beginning deliberate preparations to exit the country when he told them to" |

| #3 Nearly everything in government eventually becomes a costly enterprise. The so-called 'War on Terror' was no exception. Need additional evidence, see "War on Poverty' followed by 'War on Drugs.' |

| #2 Cause those who are charge with waging war collect all the fancy toys but don't know what war has been since the middle of the last century. There is no substitute for destroying the enemy's means of conducting war. In this case destroying the enemy's base of operation, which was and is Pakistan. Further, it means breaking and killing on a large scale. That is too icky and uncomfortable for too many, they have no will to conduct war so engage in 'precision' and 'surgical' approaches as a substitute which is kabuki theater masquerading as war. |
