"Diplomacy is about being able to put yourself into someone else's shoes, to be able to empathize, figure out their perspective" -- Former secretary of state Madeleine Albright
How does it feel to starve and die, Maddy?
"Sometimes Genocide Is OK...
It just depends who is in office at the moment.
Here is a much forgotten exchange between Lesley Stahl and Madeleine Albright on "60 Minutes" back on May 12, 1996 that is not getting much play lately:
Lesley Stahl on U.S. sanctions against Iraq: We have heard that a half million children have died. I mean, that's more children than died in Hiroshima. And, you know, is the price worth it?In case you missed that episode, here is the video:
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright: I think this is a very hard choice, but the price--we think the price is worth it.
Unconscious767 posted this video at YouTube and added this:
It's worth noting that on 60 Minutes, Albright made no attempt to deny the figure given by Stahl--a rough rendering of the preliminary estimate in a 1995 U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) report that 567,000 Iraqi children under the age of five had died as a result of the sanctions.
Thank you.
So WHEN you gonna GET AFTER Iz-ray-HELL, Maddy?
"Wellesley to honor Albright with school; Ex-diplomat offers papers to college" by Joseph Williams, Globe Staff | June 12, 2009
WASHINGTON - Former secretary of state Madeleine Albright is offering to donate her papers to Wellesley College, inspiring the institution to create an international studies school in her honor to train a new generation of women for the world stage....

The program, which will admit between 40 and 50 undergraduates this year, will teach students to think broadly about complex international issues such as war, famine, and climate change.... that can help them better understand the root causes of global problems.
I'll spell it our for you: I-S-R-A-E-L!
Wellesley spokeswoman Elizabeth Gildersleeve said Wellesley is establishing a $6 million endowment for the institute, "and, conservatively speaking, we are more than halfway there." Despite the rocky economy, she added, "Our fund-raising efforts have been gratifying."
Good thing SOME PEOPLE HAVE $$$, 'eh, 'murkn?
Albright, who served as secretary of state from 1997 to 2001 under President Clinton: "I just came back from the Arctic. I now understand global warming."
Do you know?

The Expanding Arctic Ice Sheet?
Pffffftt!
Given the array of worldwide problems - climate change, terrorism, and economic collapse - international relations "is now such a broad field," Albright said. Students who want to work in foreign relations, she added, must understand the powerful religious and cultural forces that create radical jihadists and can use lessons from anthropology to unlock solutions for deep-seated ethnic violence.
They ought to just call the course GLOBALISTS 101!
And STOP SELLING the FALSE-FLAG DIVISIONS we are running in the rest of the world, will ya?
Does anthropology explain why their mosques weren't blowing up until WE GOT THERE?
Rick Barton, a senior adviser with the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a Washington think tank, said Albright and Wellesley are correct to incorporate subjects like religion and biology to expand students' world views at "humanity's most complex moment."
The EndGame is really coming down, huh?
"It's really the only way you can understand why people would kill each other, and I think Secretary Albright has always gotten that," said Barton, who specializes in national security issues and directs the center's Post-Conflict Reconstruction Project...
Gimme a break, will ya? 'ja SEE the VIDEO at the TOP?.
The college also intends to use the Albright Institute as a platform for visiting scholars and world leaders....
Don't they get enough already with their MSM?
Oh, right, we aren't watching that.

Why do we need this clatch of *****.....
WELLESLEY - In a time of American involvement in both Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as mounting tensions with Iran, Pakistan, and North Korea, the fear of nuclear proliferation, global pandemics, climate change, and financial woes....
