Clinton’s utter failure and pleas for Russia to help

The day when Muammar Kaddafi was brutally murdered in the street, and Clinton joyously proclaimed, “We came, we saw, he died!” is over. Any victory the US could have claimed in Libya is dead and gone, unless we talk about oil deals and the like, which of course was the real reason for the invasion of Libya, wasn’t it?
While the Clintons are hiring lawyers, Obama is now claiming responsibility for deaths of four US diplomats in Libya and Romney is promising an even worse world, US candidates who might bring about real change (the Green Party candidates) are being arrested and NATO is ever escalating its grip all over the world; people are dying and going hungry and any hope there may have been for a better world is dying a slow and painful death.

Clinton in Libya in October 2011
Hillary Clinton admits the security failure in Benghazi was her fault, although not mentioning decades of US meddling in the Muslim world, in a move more likely than not engineered to deflect negativity from Obama as he fights for re-election. As if to underline her failure as Secretary of State, the US has also pleaded with Russia to do more to solve the situation in Syria. In the meanwhile US candidates who may bring about real change in US (Jill Stein and Cheri Honkala) are being arrested.
If you have been around for a while you all recall the famous Bill Clinton tradition of flip-flopping and trying to play to everyone in the room. Well that Clinton tradition seems to be alive and well and living in Benghazi, Libya, metaphorically speaking of course.
Bill is back, or at least he has made enough noise to get some press, this time up in arms and really upset because the Clinton dream of making Hillary the first female US president may be at risk, if you believe that she really has a chance after a dismal career as Secretary of State. We should recall that the post was her consolation prize for helping out Obama on his becoming the first black US president.

According to author Ed Klein in an interview with The Daily Caller, a right-wing US media outlet, Bill Clinton has organized a legal team to decide how to deal with Hillary being blamed for the Benghazi attack. This was at about the same time White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters the blame lies with the State Department and not the White House.
According to Klein the worst case scenario for the Clintons would have Hillary resigning from her post, something that would damage not only Obama’s re-election chances but her presidential aspirations for 2016.
Behind the scenes the Clintons are fighting for their grip on power and decisions are being made not only to protect Hillary from the fallout from Benghazi but to protect Obama’s re-elections bid. Something which has prompted Clinton to now take full responsibility for the “security failure” in Benghazi, Libya, and to say that Obama was in no way involved in “mission security” issues.

To say that Hillary Clinton has failed as Secretary of State might be a harsh assessment, given the disastrous state of affairs she was passed on by her predecessor, but in reality failure might be the only word that fits. The day when Muammar Kaddafi was brutally murdered in the street, and Clinton joyously proclaimed, “We came, we saw, he died!” is over. Any victory the US could have claimed in Libya is dead and gone, unless we talk about oil deals and the like, which of course was the real reason for the invasion of Libya, wasn’t it?
The same can be said for the advancement of US interests and US meddling in every country that the US has attempted to garner control: Iraq “failure”, Iran “failure”, the Arab Spring countries “failure”, Russia and attempts at undermining President Putin “failure”, Afghanistan “failure”, Pakistan “failure”, Venezuela “failure” and now Libya “failure”.

Hold on, I am not finished. As if to add a thick oozing coat of icing to the rotting and putrid cake of failure, US State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland recently stated that the United States hopes Russia will get more involved in the settlement of the Syrian conflict.
Nuland said: “They have influence that we don’t have, since they have had these military relationships for so long, and we’d like to see them use it to pressure Assad…” Wow! Has someone in the US finally woken up and realized that it is in fact a multi-polar world and they can not go around dictating to everyone and “controlling the situation” everywhere they go?
This is the same State Department that called Russia “morally bankrupt” and falsely accused Russia of supplying weapons to Assad when they are funding and arming terrorists and sending them into Syria to kill anything that moves. Russia just kicked USAID out of the country and refused all pleas by the State Department to allow them to keep operating; that should have been a wake-up call, and perhaps they are waking up and finally realizing that they have no idea what they are doing. More than likely not, but it’s a nice thought.
Clinton with Saudi Arabia’s Defense Minister Prince Salman bin Abdul-Aziz Al Saud
As if to further underline the morally bankrupt and completely corrupt system of “democracy” in the US and further evidence of how far those in power will go to stay there, last night US Green presidential candidate Jill Stein and Vice-Presidential Candidate Cheri Honkala, who I spoke to last month, were arrested while protesting their exclusion from the presidential debates.
They are on the ballot in many states and have the right to participate in the election process. This includes debates, yet the US two/one-party system has continuously locked them out.
While the Clintons are hiring lawyers, Obama is now claiming responsibility for deaths of four US diplomats in Libya and Romney is promising an even worse world, US candidates who might bring about real change (the Green Party candidates) are being arrested and NATO is ever escalating its grip all over the world; people are dying and going hungry and any hope there may have been for a better world is dying a slow and painful death.
Thanks for this! No photos of Hillary with family friends Mubarak!
It really is a farce when the USA pretends to be a democracy and share its values with others, and preaches about human rights, when you see who its friends are.
As the foreign secretary of the “world’s sole military superpower,” Clinton is the chief face of the U.S. throughout the world (excepting, perhaps, Lady Gaga and the Kardashian sisters). And what an advertisement.
Mediocrity meets malice.
Sheer lack of scruples and ruthless ambition.
Role model for American youth and thw world.
“Russia just kicked USAID out of the country and refused all pleas by the State Department to allow them to keep operating; that should have been a wake-up call…”
It’s much worse (or better depending on one’s pov) than that.
USAID was expelled with no warning and minimal notice and, at the same time, the other dozen or so (registered) US NGO’s operating in Russia were read the riot act, handed a copy of the short-circuited “Reset” rule book and told to watch their step.
It’s no mere coincidence that the Western Media has decided to pussy foot around the trials and tribulations of the feeble-minded members of Pussy Riot – too many Yankee.and other Western spooks vulnerable to prolonged detention for rabble-rousing/trouble-making in Russia.
If there is any justice in this world Mrs Hitlery von Killington would not be measuring her distance to the very bottom of the HELL she created for others but how many steps separating her from well deserved GUILLOTINE!
After all, Marie Antoinette was far less vicious, bloodthirsty and cruel than Mrs Hitlery von Killington.
In a novel of the 1800s the French writers Edmond and Jules Goncourt wrote of “the petty despotic tyranny of an unbalanced woman” as though they a century and a half in advance had Clinton in mind.
Hillary “We came, we saw, he died” Clinton is the perfect representative for the American Empire. Lady McDeath personifies the imperial arrogance and bloodlust that defines America’s warped “moral values.”
What’s most sinister about Clinton, however, is how she embodies the Democratic Party’s instinctive tactic of manipulating identity poli-tricks to “rebrand” the American Empire with a phony progressive veneer since Clinton is a woman.
See Obama, Barack.
