"New terms used like, 'overseas contingency operation' instead of the word 'war' - that reflects a worldview that is out of touch with the enemy that we face. We can't spin our way out of this threat"

- Sarah Palin

About this Quote

In this quote, Sarah Palin is slamming using euphemisms, such as "overseas contingency operation," to explain the continuous war against terrorism. She argues that these terms are a reflection of a disconnected perspective on the real nature of the enemy. According to Palin, using unclear and sterilized language to describe the dispute undermines the seriousness of the threat and recommends an absence of understanding of the enemy's objectives. She believes that rather of attempting to spin the situation, we must acknowledge the truth of the threat and take definitive action to fight it. In essence, Palin is calling for a more direct and truthful technique to dealing with the obstacles positioned by terrorism.
