Speaking today before the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), Secretary of State Hillary Clinton issued a dramatic proclamation that a “new American moment” has arrived and that the State Department will be asserting America’s “global leadership” in a number of new ways.
Still, it seems this “substantial progress” is based primarily on unflappable US optimism about the Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, even as those talks appear poised to collapse in the weeks ahead over the settlement construction issue.
Beyond that Clinton reiterated her previous claims that Iran is becoming a “military dictatorship,” insisting that there isn’t “any doubt” that Iran’s status as a Shi’ite theocracy amounts to “sort of religious ideological veneer.”
Clinton’s comments on Iran over her 20 months in power have varied wildly, including demands that Iran prove it isn’t making nuclear weapons, proclamations that Iran could never prove that it isn’t making nuclear weapons, and threats to launch an attack on them. She has also openly said that the diplomacy toward Iran was never meant to work, but was aimed at convincing the world to accept more sanctions against them.
The more things change…
Billy's wife is just one of psychopaths running your country and committing heinous crimes all over the world. Below is a better (newer) definition of a psychopath.
========
"Are some corporate CEO’s, doctors, lawyers, politicians and scientists psychopaths? The answer could be “yes” if you use a definition which labels individuals who are often intelligent and highly charismatic, but display a chronic inability to feel guilt, remorse or anxiety about any of their actions. Tack on the use of violence and intimidation to control others and satisfy selfish needs and the label expands."
that would be sociopaths
And I have no doubt that the USA is becoming a military dictatorship. Furthermore we have the world's most dangerous nuclear arsenal and routinely start wars of aggression.
2012 Hitlary Clinton President of USA. Run for your lifes.
"Moment" is about right.
Huzzah! "A new American moment!" Yippee! Ummm, what's new?
The American New Century – Neo Cons ideologues like Paul Wolfovitz, Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney are saying the same thing as this women.., namely.., US is the leader of the world imperial agendas and NATO is following its path. In another word US militarism with NATO militarism hand in hand repeating what the WWI and WWII was about.., dominating the world starting by conquering the world natural resources. Beside that.., as said before…, there is not much of different between this women and Madeline Albright where she said…, “what is so good about US mighty army if we cannot use it“…, is just that she is saying the same thing with a twist for people to think that is said on the bases of democratization of the world.., meanwhile this and previous government steal the peoples wealth and calls it the democrats manifesto. Barbara Boxer voted for $500 billions cut on medical and Medicare for those who receive from $300 to $600 dollars a month social security benefits yet she calls herself a democrats…., I wonder if they ever look at increasing homeless numbers and ask why…,
What a scorecard:
Iraq: 4.5 million displaced, hundreds of thousands killed, people living in extreme poverty more than doubled, chronic childhood malnutrition reaching sub-Saharan Africa proportions. A developed country completely destroyed. Hundreds of billions spent, trillions in obligations to be paid. Primary beneficiary: the Mullahs of Iran.
Afghanistan: An absolute failure. Ravaged by our former "Afghan Trap" strategy and now, under US occupation, the second most corrupt country in the world.
1,000 bases in more than 130 countries around the world, and yet the bankrupt Empire of Debt promises more expansion.
Who knows, perhaps this vicious little woman will fun against Newt "Mr. Sharia" Gingrich for American Fuhrer.
News flash for Ms Clinton – we don't want your "global leadership", it's costs too many lives. Clear off and sort your own house out first.

The americans ought to be embarrassed by the actions, assertions, and threats that continue to emanate from this woman. She is consistently hysterical in her support for american intervention at the behest of israel rather than representing any american interest.
Since she is worth no more than a direct link to Mr. Netanyahu and his cohorts, perhaps the americans could simply replace her by providing Bibi with direct – real time – access to american television. He certainly is capable of clearly stating his opinions (and demands) without any assistance from this clinton creature.

Creature??? That's good. Well said.
This Madwoman was Obama's initial and biggest mistake of his Presidency.
God help the World if she ever becomes President..
Obama's biggest mistake was in adopting and expanding all of the illegal and immoral policies of his predecessor. Hillary is merely an accessory to the vast criminal syndicate known as the US government.
Just one little thing there Hilliary…WHO SAYS the globe WANTS American "leadership" (read hegemony and bullying).
declairing this after emerging from the toilet
Correction.. the Barbara Boxer cuting amount from Medical and Medicare… is not 500 Billion.., but rather 500 million dollars.
