Mike Whitney — Hillary’s War Whoop

If you’re one of the millions of Americans who think Hillary Clinton would make a lousy president, then pat yourself on the back because she pretty much proved it yesterday. In a presentation to the Council on Foreign Relations, Clinton made it clear that if she’s elected in 2016, she’s going to drag the country straight to war. Invoking the same imagery as her ideological twin, George W. Bush, Clinton fulminated for more than an hour and a half on Syria, war, terrorism, war, no-fly zones, war, radical jihadism, war, and “metastasizing threats”, whatever the heck those are. Oh, and did I mention war?….

Bill and Hillary have already done more than both President Bushes together to set the American and world economies on the wrong, neoliberal, track.
Because, as Democrats, they were able to bring potential opponents along, they accomplished what Ronald Reagan could only dream of doing. America’s and the world’s richest and most heinous capitalists may not all realize it, but they are all profoundly in the Clintons’ debt.
For promoting the neoconservative vision of American world domination, albeit in a “humanitarian” guise, the Clintons are second to none as well.
