Is Hillary still the Secretary of State ?!
Is Hillary still the Secretary of State ?!
I'm only inquiring about this because she seems to still have an influence on foreign affairs . No I'm NOT making this up . Here is a very recent news item for reference [from Thursday] :

Brief excerpts :
Hillary Clinton calls for U.S. to bomb Syrian air fields
....
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.

Hillary advocated for going even more aggressively than Trump's current actions . Where would events be if she were POTUS ? I expect a worse entanglement than we are currently in ...
We still have no news about the Bernie Sanders reactions to recent events . Does anyone have that info ?
Here is the latest news I could find about damages from the airstrike :
Apparently as many as 20 Syrian aircraft were "destroyed" . That is a substantial amount of damage ...
I don't believe it. This is a ploy concocted by Putin to give Trump a pretend situation that allows him to act as though he is taking a stand against Russia since the sane people in America are quite certain he is a Russian Alt Right plant in the White House.
This is "fake news".
Good to see you posting again Petey.
Is there a reason why you are only talking about your "beliefs" ? If you want to convince others you need hard evidence ... like that Reuters article I linked to . Got any ?
BTW how was your trip to Israel ?

Hi Petey! I've been sooooo busy and just getting around to your note.
Of course there's a reason I'm only talking about my beliefs.......my beliefs are very important and generally spot on. hahahaha
Just kidding. I think we're still learning the impact of Trump's decision to go and bomb practically........... nothing thanks to his advising those he was attacking that he was getting ready to attack them. So much for his strategy of not telling the enemy what he's going to do.
My trip to Israel was incredible. I learned a great deal but would have to go back many more times to really absorb the history of the country and it's people. One of my best trips so far.
You need more tin foil.
