Intelligent guy?! He's a stupid shit. He's intelligent in the same way that the Pope is intelligent, he knows how to rise to the top by belching out more of the same old recycled dogma, in his case military dogma. If you look at people that really are really intelligent, like Bertrand Russell or Albert Einstein, they are invariable pacifists, for they have figured out that war doesn't work. This boob is still under the illusion inculcated from his war college experience that there are ways in which war works, which is why he invents new reasons and justification for using a war mentality.
War first destroys the weaker of the combatants, but it also destroys the stronger of the combatants, it just takes more time. It is true that "to the victor go the spoils", but those spoils continue to rot away. Pseudo-intellectuals like him are the best reason to support Dennis Kucinich's "Department of Peace" proposal.
