How does that kind of kill ratio add up to a loss ??? Do we have to annihilate the entire population to win ?
If an invading army came to the US and those numbers were reversed, would anyone be calling that a win ?
We didn't just annihilate a population, we completely devestated their land as well. There are landmines still exploding over there.
Americans have a very curious way of looking at things. We look at everything from our own selfish perspective and we expect other cultures to accept our perspective as well.
The current price of gasoline is a perfect example of that.

This is a 40 to 1 kill ration and we lost. Any idea what the ratios were in WWII Atlantic & Pacific Theaters?
