I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say there, but in any case politicians should have nothing do with the actual execution of field ops. That's a soldiers' job, and down the history there's plenty of examples why. In a properly working democracy it should, however, be the politicians who approve the op beforehand and deal with the consequences afterwards if the stakes are high enough. Engaging terrorists within a sovereign country's borders, without the "host" knowing about it, is a damn good example of this.
