President Obama's national security strategy looks beyond military might

Implicitly rejecting the antiterrorism rhetoric of the Bush administration, Brennan said that "our enemy is not terrorism, because terrorism is but a tactic. Our enemy is not terror, because terror is a state of mind and, as Americans, we refuse to live in fear."

"Nor do we describe our enemy as jihadists or Islamists," Brennan said, because use of these religious terms would "play into the false perception" that al-Qaeda and its affiliates are "religious leaders and defending a holy cause, when in fact, they are nothing more than murderers."

"...an action that eliminates a single terrorist but causes civilian casualties can, in fact, inflame local populations and create far more problems -- a tactical success but a strategic failure."

"Terrorists may try to bring death to our cities, but it is our choice to either uphold the rule of law or chip away at it . . . to either respond wisely and effectively or lash out in ways that inflame entire regions and stoke the fires of violent extremism. That is our choice. And with the strategy we are releasing tomorrow, President Obama and the administration offers our answer.

We have seen though that the American people vote for congressmen who support presidents of whom they disapprove, as with the U.S. House in 1980. the American people need a lot of civics instruction.

“the American people need a lot of civics instruction.”

They are NOT getting it in school. The leftists who run our schools teach them globalism, cultural relativism, the evils of the capitalist west, the crimes of the past and instill class guilt and moral equivalence.

THOSE are SOME of the reasons the Obamanation is squatting in the Oval Office.

NOW, the American Public SEEMS as ticked off at their Congress-critters as they are at Obama.

President Obama's national security strategy looks beyond military might

I assume they mean that Community-Organizer-in-Chief Obama's national security strategy looks forward to a time when we have no military might.

This is equivalent to the police saying "crime is not our enemy, because crime is but a tactic."

With this clown, I would agree with you. After all, he needs more “emergencies” to complete the total destruction of our Republic.
