However, as recent events in Iraq have once again demonstrated, it is much easier to start a war than it is to end it.<\/p>\n<p><i>Every War Must End<\/i>, which Colin Powell credits in his autobiography with having shaped his thinking on how to end the first Gulf War, analyzes the many critical obstacles to ending a war &#8211; an aspect of military strategy that is frequently and tragically overlooked.
