In fact, based on that philosophy, we should have surrendered to the Soviets back in 1962.
But is it really capitulating if we don't belong there? I don't like paying to protect the house of Saud, they aren't even the rightful rulers in the first place. And while bowing to terrorism is a mistake, if they are right on a point we should do the opposite just so it looks like we are being tough on terrorism.
