Yesterday, we discussed the differences in battle techniques between the NATO-backed uprisings in Libya, and recent U.S. military efforts in the Middle East. Our guest, Gideon Rose, editor for Foreign Affairs magazine and the author of “How Wars End: Why We Always Fight the Last Battle,” said that comparisons can be drawn between NATO’s efforts in Kosovo, and what has transpired this year in Libya.
