U.S. Poll: Only 20% Of Americans Believe The U.S. Is Winning The War On Terror



CNN: CNN/ORC poll: More Americans say terrorists are winning than ever before

Washington (CNN)Americans are more likely to say that terrorists are winning the war against the United States than they have been at any point since the September 11 attacks, according to a new CNN/ORC poll.

The public is broadly unhappy with the nation's progress, with nearly three-quarters of Americans saying they are not satisfied with how the war on terror is proceeding. That figure, following terrorist attacks in Paris and San Bernardino, California, this fall, is well above the previous high of 61% who said they were dissatisfied in August 2007.

A war on terror is an impossibility to begin with, so it can't be won. Terrorism is a crime and not an act of war. The only effective way to combat terrorism is with effective intelligence activities and policing, but the US has been negligent at both. So in that sense it is losing the war on terrorism, as it lost the wars on poverty and drugs (also not real wars).

Obama is fighting with his feet self-hobbled and one hand behind his back.

His biggest weapons are hashtags and spin.
