Militaristic path than even Obama forged

by Ted Rudow III, MA (Tedr77 [at] aol.com)
One calls “the woman expected to run the Pentagon under Hillary Clinton,” this week advocated for “sending more American troops into combat against ISIS and the Assad regime than the Obama administration has been willing to commit.” It’s long been beyond doubt that Clinton intends to embark upon a far more militaristic path than even Obama forged —
— which is saying a lot given that the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize winner has bombed seven predominantly Muslim countries in seven years.

Repeatedly, Clinton has implicitly criticized Obama for excessive hostility toward Israel, and she has vowed more uncritical support for Israel and to move closer to Netanyahu with Clinton’s supporters taking an even more hard-line position than many right-wing Israeli politicians. But now Clinton’s almost-certain defense secretary is already — months before she’s in power — expressly advocating more war and bombing and dangerous interventions. That makes the costs of a Clinton foreign policy — at least for those who assign any value to lives outside of American soil — much harder, and more shameful, to ignore.

The conqueror writes the history books, the "Ministry of truth!". Didn't you ever read 1984? Whoever wins the war, they write the books, so you will never hear the truth of what really happened. Don't you remember the "Ministry of Truth" of the dictatorship in 1984? Its job was to research all the books and expunge all the derrogatory references to their regime.
