Only the naive will deny that we are engaged in a war, and war cannot end until there is a winner and a loser. We can’t defeat that which we don’t properly name.

Obama and his administration refuse to label the threat we face: fundamental Islam. The jihadists carry out attacks mandated by religious doctrine in their goal to defeat us.

Obama’s speech, prepared by those who either didn’t serve in the military or know little about its culture, was delivered with his usual elan, but for me it was empty rhetoric. Expect more of the same.
