Eating Soup with a Knife

Submitted by Lance on Mon, 09/08/2008 - 9:43pm

Of course you can devise some kind of scenario in which it might be necessary to eat soup with a knife, but your basic gameplan in life is going to be to avoid being in those kind of situations. And much the same, it seems to me, with the lessons of counterinsurgency. Your top policy priority should be to avoid the situations in which it arises.
