Obama Defends Drone Strikes But Says No Cure-All

In this video, President Barack Obama provides a comprehensive framework for America's future counterterrorism strategy, he thoroughly reviews America's past 'war' against al Qaeda, and he lays down the political groundwork needed to manage terrorism rather than 'combat' it. He further lays out his administration's reasons for the use of unmanned drone strikes against terrorist targets and discusses how the US will work with its allies to manage persistent external threats.
