News Limited of Australia brings us this report of a recent speech by former President Bill Clinton:
Clinton blasts US foreign policy
Former US president Bill Clinton today blasted US foreign policy adopted in the wake of the September 11 attacks, arguing the United States cannot kill, jail or occupy all of its adversaries.
“Our paradigm now seems to be: something terrible happened to us on September 11, and that gives us the right to interpret all future events in a way that everyone else in the world must agree with us,” said Clinton, who spoke at a seminar of governance organised by Conference Board.
“And if they don’t, they can go straight to hell.”
Gee, this guy is smart, well-spoken, and genuinely compassionate. I wish he were in the White House…!
