It's probably bad to admit this, I don't think I every have before, I don't think that the US should be involved in any military actions where protecting civilians is more important than completing their missions. I just don't.

Yes, we should take the time needed to try and get a peaceful resolution, but once the decision is made to use warfare, then do it and get out.
