You are not really answering my question. You are giving me a political answer, when what I want is a military answer.

To respond to your statements, my question is, SHOULD American military be the world police?

I would say that when a military like ours forts up, the war is already over, and we have effectively lost.

And I also think that to turn a field army into an occupying police force is a gross abuse of the men and women in uniform.

You must know something about Algeria and the FLN. Algeria and Iraq are extremely similar. Are we prepared to do what the French did? And what happens when we eventually pull out? You know what happened to the friends of the French occupiers when that happened.
