Undoubtedly, you already know what it is that I am referring. The statement by Hillary Clinton that she would obliterate Iran, that country attempted an attack on Israel with nuclear weapons.
Here is the snippet of the interview, that is coming up on Good Morning America.:
She did, however attempt to back off the statement on MSNBC:
My friends, this is nothing more than a page out the George W. Bush playbook. Was it not Hillary Clinton, when confronted by some facts about her policies, fly into a screeching premenstrual rage, about Barack Obama’s tactics being right out of the playbook of Karl Rove? Now, with the table’s turned and Hillary being under the gun, Hillary herself does the same exact thing, only notches up the rhetoric more. Yet, she gets a free pass, because she is trailing, because she is the underdog. Not from this writer she does not.
This Nation, for the last 6 years, has been in quagmire called Iraq. We were lead into this war, based upon intelligence that, in fact, was found to be false. Yet, this administration has continued to move the goal posts as to the reason we had to remain in Iraq. Yet our President in his stubbornness and blind allegiance to a totally flawed and poisonous political ideology has almost strained our Military to the point of almost breaking the back of those of whom we entrust our safety, our lives, our well being.
Now we have some so-called underdog Presidential candidate who is attempting to compare herself to Franklin D. Roosevelt, or John F. Kennedy, both paramount leaders in the annals of the history of America, all so she can attempt to appeal to those who think striking Iran might just be a good idea.
The tough reality is, that involving this country in another military escalation of this sort would do nothing more than further strain and possibly destroy what military we have left. This is outside of the scope of instituting a military draft. Not to mention, any sort of Military action, outside of the approval of the United Nations would result in further destabilization of that very region. Not to mention the United States relations with our allies in the region.
I am not sure exactly what Hillary Clinton is attempting to do, but it could spell the very end of her bid for the office of President of United States.
