Obama administration declares end to War on Terror

Yet another reason we don't want a cowardly Marxist in office. Did radical Muslims surrender? I don't remember hearing that. Obama's state department shouldn't be making unilateral declarations about the end of a war. The other side has something to say about it!

Weekly Standard:

"The war on terror is over," a senior official in the State Department official tells the National Journal. "Now that we have killed most of al Qaida, now that people have come to see legitimate means of expression, people who once might have gone into al Qaida see an opportunity for a legitimate Islamism."

It's interesting, I did a lot of searching for this story, and was surprised that no left-wing news organizations are covering it. I searched for "war on terror" at LAT, NYT, USA Today & CNN with no results. Then I did a general web search, which turned up many conservative sites covering the story.

The War on Terror has been part of our lives for over a decade. It has cost a lot of money and lives and disruption. Now it is over, and the far-left media doesn't think it warrants a mention. It is dishonest to decline to cover stories that makes your ideology look bad.
