The global war on terror will feature fewer land battles and more surgical drone strikes. The Obama administration's new counterterrorism strategy also calls for more frequent use of special forces. The doctrine has taken two years to hatch. It got a boost after Navy Seals killed al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden in May.
Last week, President Barack Obama said U.S. troops will begin leaving Afghanistan this summer. White House counterterrorism chief John Brennan said the reworked doctrine acknowledges the growing threat of terrorism at home, including al-Qaida attempts to recruit and attack inside the United States.

ReplyDeleteThe terrorists are in Washington DC. The enemy is inside the gates.
Where is the outcry for the high number of deaths in June? Why does this poor excuse for a president get such a free ride from the press? Now, drones. After the criticism of them earlier??? Obama is a complete idiot! 2012, where are you?
