-  WH says it's not terror

White House says Taliban Is not a terrorist group one month after 132 Pakistani school children slaughtered.

Deputy Press Secretary Eric Schultz responded to a question about whether Jordan’s plan to make a prisoner trade with ISIS was similar to the U.S. swapping five Taliban members for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl. 

First, Schultz said that the U.S. doesn’t negotiate with terrorists. Then he said:

 “I don’t think that the Taliban is a terrorist organization…it is an armed insurgency.”

ERIC SCHULTZ

You don’t think the Taliban is a terrorist group?” ABC’s Jonathan Karl asked.

“I don’t think that the Taliban… the Taliban is an armed insurgency,” Schultz continued haltingly, pointing out that the United States negotiated Berghdal’s release during the “winding down” of the war in Afghanistan.

Journalist Charles Krauthammer commented on Fox News:

It slits throats. It attacks buses. It drives car bombs into markets and it’s not a terrorist group. Look you can’t parody this administration…  

And also the idea that the war is winding down is preposterous. Tell that to anybody that lives in Afghanistan.  

This is a fantasy. Obama is pretending that the War on Terror, the War in Afghanistan, the War in Iraq is winding down… This is sort of embarrassing.
