520 _aThis article is concerned with very specific question of political influence over ongoing military operations. That politicians may well seek to exercise influence, especially when operations appear to be in trouble, is unavoidable. The military tends to the view that politicians cannot understand their business and will propose impractical strategies; the politicians tend to the view that the military are insensitive to the challenges they must face in sustaining public support for a war and keeping alliances in good repair.
