Ret. Air Force Col. Sam Gardiner: ‘There is No Islamic Extremism’

The Takeaway

The U.S. has been at war in Afghanistan for almost ten years, with one of the main objectives to hunt down Osama bin Laden. With bin Laden now dead –  killed by American Navy Seals, and buried at sea –  does U.S. foreign policy on the global war on terrorism have to change?  Retired Air Force Colonel,  Sam Gardiner believes President Obama will have to find a good argument to stay at war in Afghanistan.
