Hillary Clinton confirms it: the Obama administration will no longer use the term “global war on terror.”

AP reminds us that “the use of the term ‘global war on terror’ is widely disliked overseas.” And by “widely disliked overseas,” they mean “widely disliked by terrorists.” And it’s oh so important that we not offend the terrorists.

So what’s Hillary’s explanation for dropping the term?

She said the absence of the “war on terror” language speaks for itself.

I’d say that explanation speaks for itself. If we’re not gonna fight it, then why say we’re fighting it?
