Unconditional surrender were conditions before talks at a WWII negotiation table could start. Even with unconditional surrender, negotiations included who is to be jailed for trial, guidelines for how occupation is conducted, placement of the conquered army, the future status of an emperor, and much 'nation building' that George Jr insisted America must not do. All wars end in negotiations no matter how one sided those negotiations might be.

When the Administration was battling the Pentagon over staffing before the invasion, what politician in his right mind would call for sending more men and boys off to war? Even if they felt it would be better for the military it would look bad to the mothers and wives.
