No ‘triumph’ for Obama

The April 3 headline Iran nuke deal a triumph for Obama, touts the deal with Iran as victory for the president. This is the same President Obama who said that “the war on terror is over” in May 2013.

Tell that to the 147 Kenyans who died at the hands of terrorists, as reported that same day.

Obama is desperately trying to have something by which to be remembered. This may be remembered as the beginning of the end. For all of mankind.
