What should I look for, a picture of her with a gun looking over the sea from Alaska? She’s an expert politician, and a previous Secretary of State - her words are chosen very carefully, as she reminded her corporate audience in other circumstances. So her words are important - they are signals of what her public position will be. On Russia, she’s repeatedly signalled that we need more stick, ever since Ukraine - or if you listen to Putin, since 2011 when she tried to get rid of him. She’s gone as far as proposing no-fly-zones over Syria, something that Putin wouldn’t accept in a million years and is basically offensive right now.
I don’t think she plans to “wage war”, I think if you brand someone a Nazi in public clearly you don’t care for them very much and you’re not going to talk to them very much. That report was two years ago and since then things have not improved on any front.
Dude, she was in charge when Syria started. On her watch, the US armed Syrian opposition and kickstarted the shitstorm, and Obama came very close to invading the country soon after. What does “being a hawk” entail, in your world, if instigating civil wars with a view to invade does not?
Excuse me for holding the words of a presidential candidate and previous Secretary of State to higher standards than what I expect from BB people. That’s a really flimsy argument, sorry.
Is Clinton better than Trump? Sure, no question. But, on foreign policy, it’s a bit like saying drinking piss for a month is better than eating shit for a year.
