NYT - Bombing Syrian Airfields actually Hillary Clinton's Idea
2017-04-08
[NYT 6 April 2017 via Reuters] In her first interview since her stunning presidential election defeat by Republican rival Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton on Thursday called for the United States to bomb Syrian air fields.

Clinton, in an interview at the Women in the World Summit in New York, also called Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election a theft more damaging than Watergate.

Asked whether she now believes that failing to take a tougher stand against Syria was her worst foreign policy mistake as secretary of state under President Barack Obama, Clinton said she favored more aggressive action against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.

"I think we should have been more willing to confront Assad," Clinton said in the interview, conducted by New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof.

"I really believe we should have and still should take out his air fields and prevent him from being able to use them to bomb innocent people and drop sarin gas on them."

Clinton noted that she had advocated for a no-fly zone in Syria after leaving government, something that Obama opposed.

#7  Damn It! This isn't on my lying Hillary Doll. She is deliberately ruining my investment which will pay off when she crumps.

#6  So the attack is polling well, and Hillary! thinks Trump makes better decisions than Barry. Got it.

I too am suspicious of the authenticity of a sarin attack, as in the ISJV are the kind of arses who would gas people for propaganda purposes, and they have been working on their own chemical weapons.

#5  NYT is sounding more and more like 1950's Pravda.

#2  Perhaps she "should have been more aggressive" in the defense of Libya which would have muted the cascading North African migration wave to Europe.

#1  But, if - as I expect - it turns out that the sarin attack was pure Pallywood, it'll go back to being Trump's idea?
