"And let us be careful in our use of the great power at our disposal so that, as we do not sacrifice the youth of our country, neither do we sacrifice the lives of our enemies without overwhelming cause."

Peter, I think you missed this part of my statement in the previous post. My meaning is that, as we have learned an obvious lesson to not consider our youth expendable(unacceptable casualties), perhaps the next step is to consider the lives of the young soldiers of our enemies in a more enlightened way.
