Yes but we can't do unconventional and never have been able to. As long as
we try to fight them with US heavy weapons, we're going to lose.
Counter-insurgency and winning hearts and minds are not our strong suits.

This is only true if the two sides are morte or less evenly matched. We
aren't.

They have reached the limts of their escalation, and perhaps have even
lost the
capablilty of even equaling their past efforts, and we have barely
scratched
the surface of our conventional capabilities. And should they succceed in
another major attack, we can go WAY beyond conventional.
