Obama’s withdrawal from the war against terrorism will give extremists breathing space to increase their menace. And retreat is unquestionably Obama’s plan, from his heedless Iraq withdrawal that allowed Iran a near-dominant position in Baghdad, to our impending final Afghan withdrawal that is giving the Taliban an invaluable opportunity to retake control. American drone strikes, which Obama eloquently justified and thereby legitimized for future administrations, have been devastatingly effective, as he himself contends, and yet he now proposes essentially to abandon them. The certainty of reduced drone attacks, renewed efforts to close the Guantanamo Bay detention facility, and lifting restrictions on transfers of current detainees back to Yemen, are all part of Obama’s defeatist ball of string.

None of these specifics, however, capture the main reason Obama’s speech was so chilling. He is not declaring victory and coming home. Rather, he never believed, from the 2008 campaign forward, that we should be conducting a war or terror.

No chit, Sherlock! Obama gets it. Obama got it a long time ago and you still don't.

More aptly it would be called "a war of terror."

We shoot and bomb a few thousand, they blow up a few hundred...and the hits keep on coming.

Under GWB we killed the #2 about 30 times. Now that's enemy job security...
