When politics gets 'in the way' of military operations the soldiers always end up with the short end of the stick.
Politicians have screwed up more deployments, military campaigns, battles, and wars in history than soldiers.
I've seen it first hand and it doesn't matter if they are demonrats, republicans, liberal, or labor.
The military has a job to do. Outline the job, give them the resources, and then get out of the way.
