Obama: 'Global War on Terror' Is Over

WW II was not fought against blitzkrieg. Bush or whoever thought of war on terrorism was nuts. People fight wars with the weapons available to them. I think Rumsfeld said something like that.

I’m just a poor boy can’t get no sympathy
`cause it’s easy come, easy go

PAX TIBI.

[Billthedrill]

Yeah. Any way the wind blows. Doesn’t really matter to me.

[bankwalker]

The name is "terrorist" and s/he can be male, female, of any culture, any age and any nationality.

I think the term 'warrior' is more accurate as their goal is conquest.

A real good time

[skimbell]

C'mon!

You apparently read the article.

What are you trying to make everybody look bad?

I think the term 'warrior' is more accurate as their goal is conquest.

Warriors are tools. They can be hired and fired. The old term was "mercenaries." Warriors want to live to fight another day...no suicide intended.

Terrorists are the idea makers/changers and thus far more dangerous. They are VERY willing to commit suicide for their idea. That's is why I think that they are FAR more dangerous.

We are clearly on the same page...just different views of the "book."

[tumblindice]

That’s why they call me Mr. Fahrenheit.

Obiter dictum...

will not wage war against a tactic but will instead focus on a specific group of networks determined to destroy the U.S.

Democrat Party is a network to consider.

It must have been awkward for Queen when Freddie sang,
`I’m gonna make a supersonic man outta you!’
hmmm?

[himno hero]

He has a block on this one.... its the mirror, ~ that’s the problem

[oblomov]

Yep, terror won.

[himno hero]

exactly,
the future does not belong to those who slander islam (America).

In the meanwhile Hillary is pursuing UN resolution 1618.

If she steps in , its just the Obama agenda one more time.

Could this be why Obama will not say “radical Islamic terrorism?” Obama declared there is no terrorism 3 years ago. To admit to terrorism would mean an epic fail for Obama and make him look like a fool and ignoramus.

I thought it was over when he was selected. Didn’t he/they say it was an “overseas contingent plan’ and not the war on terror?
