incompetent US generals in Iraq?

Question

In Bush's own words (or perhaps the words of his speach writers), the war against terrorism is really a war of "Hearts & Minds".

The way the Iraq war is being conducted (by the generals) is actually playing into the hands of the Islamic fundamentalists.

We are using White Phosphorous "Whisky Pete" because it makes the Army generals job easier, but it tarnishes our image in the eyes of the world.

We are repeating the same political & moral mistakes we made in Vietnam....

We are sophisticated enough to fight the insurgents by not having to inflict indiscriminate mass incineration on Iraqi civilians,...we are trusting our generals too much, and they are letting us down.

In this video, it shows testimony from former US Marines, and a British member of Parliment (22:15), that we are using methods outside of the Geneva Convention.

Question:

How can we make our generals do their job in ways that are less convenient for them, but still preserve our moral standing?

Answer 1

No war is nice.
People dont line up on 2 sides and slap fight until the first person's skin turns red then fall back while the one with the red skin is taken out of action.War has NEVER worked that way and NEVER will.
It is kill or be killed and the Islamic terrorist do MUCH worse to ANY enemy they capture REGARDLESS the nationality!
Id MUCH rather be a captive of the U.S. military than a foreign power any day!
