I have heard the statement before, and the US napalmed and bombed the crap out of North Vietnamese and Taliban, and yet in both instances the US military lost the wars. I think Americans forgot the art of guerilla warfare since the American revolution and think now in conventional terms.
In both Afghanistan and Vietnam they didn't want to occupy them forever. I'm pretty sure that won't be an issue here.
