Peace at Last? The War is Over?

I was looking at the news and saw that we are no longer in a global war or a war on terrorism and that we will no longer refer to those who are trying to kill us as "jihadists." I presume this means that we'll have to find another term for them.

President Obama's top homeland security and counterterrorism official took all three terms off the table of acceptable words inside the White House during a speech Thursday at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington think tank.

Sounds good to me. I just hope somebody tells the people that are trying to kill us that we are no longer interested in fighting them so they should stop. And if they could kindly quit referring to us as "infidels" and "non-believers" that, too, would be greatly appreciated and an appropriate quid pro quo wouldn't you agree?

See the full story at the title link above. And be thankful that we are now at peace and that there will be no more 9/11's. The White House has decreed it so.
