War

The agreement is a crucial component to bring the war to an end responsibly.

The strategic partnership is a crucial component to bring the war to an end responsibly.

The war that has to be won

We have shown that the United States is not and never will be at war with Islam.

We are responsibly ending today's wars from a position of strength.

Because of you, we're now taking the fight to the Taliban instead of the Taliban bringing the fight to us.

We are at war with ... a very specific group -- al Qaeda and its affiliates.

Our greatest assets go to war.

I've made clear, just as President Bush did shortly after 9/11, that our war is not against Islam.

To win this war, and to keep our country safe.

Clear eyed, we can understand that there will be war and still strive for peace.

This is not just America's war.

Afghans are tired of war and long for peace, justice, and economic security.

America seeks an end to this era of war and suffering.

America is fortunate to have courageous souls volunteer to help develop an ally in the war against extremists.

America remains a nation at war.

No matter how some leaders here in Washington, D.C. feel about the war, our troops deserve their full support.

I will bring this war to an end as quickly as can be done with the safety of the troops in mind.
