Obama lied to Americans about withdrawal from Afghanistan: book
Fox News
Excerpts from a new book allege that former President Barack Obama lied when he announced in December of 2014 that the United States’ war with Afghanistan had reached a “conclusion.”
"Thanks to the extraordinary sacrifices of our men and women in uniform, our combat mission in Afghanistan is ending and the longest war in American history is coming to a responsible conclusion," Obama said in a statement in 2014, adding that the day marked "a milestone for our country." However, as Whitlock writes in the book, the war was not over and would continue to rage on for almost 7 years.More Related News
