What's really pathetic is that Colin Powell described the future of asymmetric warfare in "Forward, from the Sea" in the early 90s. General Carl Stiner wrote how JFK founded the spec war community in the 60s to deal with the future assymetry of warfare. Note, JFK also founded the Peace Corps, no doubt to help with international relations before the warfare part of asymmetric relations kicked in. And, as in every war, most people will forget about all of this. Most people who read this comment will forget about it. And the only thing anyone will remember is that war is bad. And they will forget that too. And then there will be another war. Most likely for treasure, almost certainly not for a anything that rises to the level of jus ad bellum.
