End of War

Obama  announced the end of war in Iraq by withdrawing all the troops.  And, he is declaring the end of war in Afghanistan this year by the withdrawal of American troops by year end.  He stated we are not loosing the war against ISIS.

How naive can a person be!  By "not loosing" does that mean winning?  I hardly think so.  Withdrawal is not the ending of war.  That's retreat.  War ends only when the enemy is defeated.  Its the enemy that determines the end of war by giving up and surrendering on the terms of the victor.  Think WW II with the Nazis and Japanese.  Ending is not paring down our military to less than bare bones like Obama is doing.  That's insanity.  The single most important function of the federal government is the protection and security of the citizens of the United States of America.

An old Roman saying "If you want peace, then prepare for war" is never more true than it is today.
