If this doesn’t show the world how deluded our president is then I’m not sure what will. After all, leaving a terrorist organization like the Taliban intact in Afghanistan is a guarantee that they will be a source of terrorist attacks again. We didn’t win the war in Afghanistan. We walked away from it and the Taliban is celebrating victory:
THE HILL – President Obama vowed that Afghanistan will not be a source of terrorist attacks in the future, in an address just a week before the U.S. combat mission in the country ends.
Speaking to U.S. troops stationed at the Marine Corps Base in Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, Obama said their service had given Afghanistan a chance “to rebuild its own country.
“We are safer,” Obama said. “It’s not going to be a source of terrorist attacks again.”

Obama in the rest of his remarks stuck to giving thanks to U.S. troops stationed around the globe.
“We still have folks in Afghanistan helping the Afghan security forces. We have people helping to deal with Ebola in Africa and obviously we have folks stationed all around the world,” Obama said.
“But the world is better, it’s safer, it’s more peaceful, it’s more prosperous and our homeland is protected because of you and the sacrifices each and every day,” he continued.
