it wasn't my post so i'm not sure but i think he adheres to the philosophy that says that if it weren't for the anti-war movement and protests in the US the military and powers that be would have been able to bring full force to bear and employ an effective strategy and tactics.

i don't necessarily agree as the military and civilian leadership of the time were rife with incompetance. anytime there are civilian leaders half a world away designating tactical targets you have major command and control issues that may be impossible to overcome.
