Hillary the War Monger

I knew that Hillary Clinton totally lacked a) integrity, b) a moral compass c) honesty or all of the above, when as the US Senator from New York she voted to start a war in Iraq in 2003. Then in 2011, as Secretary of State she was instrumental in convincing Obama to bomb Libya and take out Muammar el-Qadaffi. She obviously didn’t learn anything from the debacle in Iraq and the result in Libya was no better, leaving a power vacuum. She was warned that this would happen and it did.

It’s been nearly a decade since the U.S.-backed ousting of Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi, and conditions in the country have gotten worse and more complicated.

And now, with the US financing the 2 ton bombs that are being dropped in Gaza, causing a death toll to date of in excess of 14,000 people, largely women and children, and destroying a huge part of the infrastructure in the tiny enclave.

More women and children have been reported killed in Gaza in less than two months than the roughly 7,700 civilians documented as killed by U.S. forces and their international allies in the entire first year of the invasion of Iraq in 2003, according to estimates from Iraq Body Count, an independent British research group.

But, it doesn’t faze Hillary. Here’s what she has to say.

A cease fire now that restored the pre-October 7th status quo would leave the people of Gaza living in a besieged enclave under the domination of terrorists and leave Israelis vulnerable to continued terrorist attacks. It would consign 100s of hostages to continue captivity.

That link is an interview with Norman Finkelstein, a stalwart defender of Palestinians rights, anti-Zionist, and I might add, son of Holocaust survivors. How I would love to see him in a face to face debate with Hillary. The interview also touches on my previous post about the failure of the Oslo Accords and tears apart her argument that it was the fault of the Palestinians, a fallacy that Bill Clinton also continues to perpetrate. Please circulate it among anyone who is willing to listen. It is people like Hillary Clinton in our government that continue to support and finance this massive blood shed and are doing nothing to actually address this decades old conflict.
