He is channeling Steven Pinker, Better Angels of Our Nature.
Pinker (and BHO) have a point in that forced relocations of whole populations and ethnic/ religious groups have been occurring at a rapid pace over the past 40-50 years, such that certain parts of the world are now denuded of the troublesome enemy. Just wait: the ME in 10 years, completely emptied of Christians, just may turn out to be peaceful, for those who dare to stay.

40 years ago we were evacuating from South Vietnam. The fighting was still going on, among the Vietnamese at least, much like the Taliban in Afghanistan today. In Cambodia, Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge were beginning their reign of terror and genocide, about like ISIS. Not much to choose between now and forty years ago violence wise. It certainly is arguably no better today than it was then.

What wars were fought between 1975 and 1985?
The Iran-Iraq War. Estimates that up to 400,000 bought it in that one.
Also the Contra War and related wars in Central America. And the Civil War in Angola. Not defending O but there were plenty of wars going on at that time.

Less violence...? Oh yeah...If you ignore the 40 people at a clip being decapitated every week...What a damn fool!!!

If you upload pictures and stuff on a site like tinypic or photobucket, they give you the links to paste here. You can also link others yourself but some places don't like that hotlinking because it chews up their bandwidth too. I learned here on FR. Here's the link below and I'll also ping you to the 2015 HTML sandbox! LOL. Have fun!

Those are Christians. In Obama’s mind, that’s justified.

Great. According to Obama having 10-20 nations fighting and increasing is actually a decrease, even though it increased. Meaning more wars mean less wars, and more violence now means less violence. This is a funny world Obama lives in, inside the white house and inside his brain

Obama is a liar and he is a madman. I think he is crazier than a bedbug on crack.

Comparing the violence levels from the 70s to today is a joke.
At least we don’t have the racial strife we had back
then, what with our trans-president and all....../s.
Oh wait, maybe that should be gender strife, oh heck,
now I’m confused, just like the rest of America.

I remind people that, you know, there actually is probably less war and less violence around the world today than there might have been 30, 40 years ago.”
“probably...”
“might have been...”
A man bereft of facts and data.
