There is an old post of mine somewhere around here that obama was advised early, early, that WAR interferes with Social Change and Progressive agendas in the US. That it was war overseas that stopped Progressive movements during several other administrations...specifically mentioned Korea and Vietnam and even WWII.
obama was advised that if he wanted to change the face of America, he should ignore the WOT and do the Hope and Change thing here at home.
That is why he took so long to decide on the Troops levels in Afghanistan and why we are no longer interested in the WOT, even to the point of eliminating the word war altogether...and subverting everything we have done by calling terrorism “manmade disasters.”
He does not support or intelligence agencies OR the military, but he will bankrupt this country and see it collapse first.
Who gave him this advise?
