A Hillary Clinton Foreign Policy


Some have suggested that a Hillary Clinton foreign policy would be better than Obama's catastrophic effort. I would just note that during her time as Secretary State she was more in favour of the Arab Spring (e.g. Libya) than Obama. When it all turned sour suddenly she was more against it than Obama. Thus, her hardback autobiography tells a different story about her pro-Arab Spring position than the paperback version. See here: https://quadrant.org.au/opinion/qed/2016/06/hillarys-nocturnal-omissions/  I assume, from this, that Hillary Clinton's foreign policy would consist of a cycle of misjudgments followed by cover-ups and scapegoating.
