Hillary Clinton recently label the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China as "despicable" because they exercised their right to block NATO's attempt to make another Libya out of Syria, and is a clear sign of how low US diplomacy can go when you have our chief diplomat resort to name calling. It also shows how unqualified she is for the job of diplomacy.
“Name calling is something you don’t want diplomats to do”, says Sal Dunham of Charlotte, N.C. an expert in international affairs. “Hillary has also lied before - her credentials for the position of Secretary of State were never that great, let us be perfectly honest with ourselves on that. For example she didn’t tell the truth on camera for all to see about getting off an aircraft in the middle of a “war zone” in Bosnia in the 1990s when in fact she arrived to a red-carpet welcome, complete with band playing and children there to greet her? She claimed she was under fire? That was completely false. Now she is name calling, is this what US Diplomacy has become?", he said.
Frankly speaking she is an embarrassment!
DESPICABLE ME
Pravda.ru did an interesting article about what is “despicable in terms of American foreign policy”. It included a laundry list of things:
“Despicable is the United States of America and its policy of torture flights, on which CIA operations carried out barbaric acts against detainees; despicable it is to flout international law, invade sovereign states and destroy their civilian infrastructures with military hardware.
Despicable it is to maintain concentration camps, a festering wound on the collective face of humanity and a profound insult to human decency. Despicable it is to sodomize detainees; despicable it is to urinate in food, despicable it is to deprive detainees of sleep, despicable it is to water-board people, despicable it is to force Moslems to eat pork.
Despicable is Guantanamo Bay concentration camp, where the worst human rights violations in Latin America are perpetrated by the United States of America; despicable was Abu Ghraib concentration camp in Iraq, where the great American heroine Lynndie England was let loose on people who had been imprisoned without charge but hey! "just havin' fun".
Despicable it is to detain people without due process, without access to a lawyer, without access to family visits and without even an accusation.
Despicable it is to arm terrorists overseas, as was the case in Libya and as is the case in Syria. Despicable, then, if we analyze with a modicum of intelligence, is Hillary R. Clinton and the hellhole that she represents…”
Pretty strong words and condemnation to be found in one of Russia’s national newspapers.
America has a long way to go in terms of its reputation overseas…maybe its time to replace her with someone who doesn’t name call…just saying?
