Why do civilians think they can fight a war?
From a policy perspective, the military in America has always been subordinate to the civil government. Thus, military policy is always set by civilians in the US. A significant, though not the most important, reason for this is that military leaders may be inclined to win at the cost of regional or worldwide political and diplomatic stability. The question should actually be reversed; "Why do military leaders think they can make foreign policy decisions." The main purpose for civilian control of the military, of course, is that countries with an independent, or worse yet, dominant military, nearly always experience prolonged periods of coup de tat and dictatorship. As to the specifics of the Vietnam War and the anti-war movement, private citizens elect the civil government that gives the military it's orders. The civil government ordered the military to fight a war that was unpopular. Private citizens expressed their opposition to the war. Since the government answer to the citizens, it eventually did what they wanted.
