If you read it through, I think there's some good analysis of HRC's misguided efforts in Libya and her close ties to the Israeli right wing. Both authors are respected political writers.

"CounterPunch is always good for a laugh." ?

You and I see the world quite differently, so no sense discussing that with you, but the gist of the article is that Hillary Rodham Clinton is a reckless warmonger as evidenced by her actions abroad - Libya, Israel, Ukraine, Honduras, etc., and that this is dangerous. For someone on the left, that is hard to refute and should be hard to overlook. Bernie is not perfect, I think he would be a much needed calmer voice on the international stage.
