Okay, don't pick on poor "Dick" Cheney. He is just saying what they really think and thus providing us a window into their rationale. Torture, and short-term macho "bring it on" thinking, is how they approach the world and it "plays in Peoria" until you view the body bags and start thinking long-term.
Of course, no one serving their country wants to accept that it's a political war. Certainly families who lose their fathers, mothers, sisters and brothers, or children will not believe that we invaded another country, for the first time in our country's history, based on lies and distortions, nor should they.
Almost none of the neocons ever fought themselves. Search for the website "chickenhawks" and you will see them all there. They get deferments from military service or the very few that do serve, get assigned jobs where they don't have to go to the battlefields. You and me fight their wars
