"So when you start from that standpoint, then figuring out in retrospect how you deal with the war — even if the outcome is a good one from the standpoint of the United States — it will always be clouded by how it began."
TVNL Comment: First of all it is and was not a war...it is and was an invasion. There is a big difference.
