You have to fight to win

Guns & Patriots has very kindly posted a commentary I wrote recently.


It's just a reminder that, while we certainly want to avoid war when possible, once we find it necessary to fight, that's what we have to do. Fight.

Seems obvious to me. But I was amazed to discover that even during World War II, there was a certain reluctance to be as vicious as necessary to win. Fortunately, the top commanders, including Omar Bradley, recognized what had to be done, and were willing to accept the consequences.
