In what just might be the world’s strangest endorsement, the left-wing website Common Dreams has adopted the slogan “Vote for the Lying Neoliberal Warmonger: It’s Important!”
Meanwhile, the hawkish establishment conservatives behind the nation’s failed policies in Iraq can’t get behind Hillary fast enough.
Paul Wolfowitz, a key architect of the Iraq War, said last week he’s going to vote for Clinton.
“It’s important to make it clear how unacceptable (Trump) is,” he told Der Spiegel magazine.
“I would say that a majority of people in my circle will vote for Hillary,” agreed Robert Kagan, cofounder of the neocon think tank Project for the New American Century, according to The Intercept.
And that has citizens around the world nervous.
“For France, anything is better than Hillary Clinton,” Marine Le Pen, the leader of the conservative French political party National Front, told CNN. “Anything but Hillary Clinton. Because I think Hillary Clinton means war. Hillary Clinton means devastation. It means world instability.”
Clinton’s hawkish track record speaks for itself, starting from her vote as senator for the disastrous invasion of Iraq and her role as secretary of state in allowing the situation there to spiral out of control.
She was also the leading voice in the Obama Administration for intervention in Libya – and after Muammar el-Qaddafi fell, she arranged a quick trip there for a high-profile victory dance.
“I am proud to stand here on the soil of a free Libya,” she announced, according to The New York Times. “It is a great privilege to see a new future for Libya being born.”
These days, she’s not nearly as keen to talk about Libya.
She’s also pushed for a more aggressive stance against Syria and has been flip-flopping like a fish out of water on the possibility of increasing U.S. ground troops in Iraq to fight ISIS.
Donald Trump’s “America First” strategy, on the other hand, is solidly against the nation-building interventions of Clinton and the Bush neocons.
