You can win a war, but if you do it 'at all costs' you might end up worse than when you started it. And to be perfectly frank, I don't think there's a war against some amorphous enemy called 'terrorism' any more than you could declare a war against any other concept. All it's really done is scared the people of this country into giving themselves and their convictions up.
No, they're not afforded rights of the capturing country... is that right? No. Especially, which rk points out, if we want them to treat our soldiers with any dignity.
You can say that I 'don't want us to win the war,' but there's no war going on, except some twisted advance of militarism in our society.
