Clinton: U.N. Palestine Vote ‘Unfortunate And Counterproductive’

88. I and most of the civilized world were sickened by that brutal war crime.

Yes, she was in Libya, where we had not place to be. After viewing that murder on TV I could not sleep it was that horrific. I cannot imagine saying anything other than to condemn it regardless of what anyone said to me. The normal reaction to such horror is not to joke in any way about it.

As I said, Gadaffi was an African leader who while the West may not have liked him, was a hero to many other African nations because he provided money to help build up African nations and to form alliances to strengthen their defenses against what has destroyed that continent for centuries now, Western Imperialism. Bishop Tutu and Mandela called him 'brother' Mandela because of his help for South Africa during Apartheid.

We here in the West have no clue about other cultures and look very much like the old British, Belgian, French and other imperial powers who ravaged that continent in the past. Her remark, regardless of why she made, shocked most Africans. Bishop Tutu was restrained in his criticism, being such a decent human being, but that he commented at all, shows the incredulity that anyone could react in any way other than horror and condemnation.

Also, many people do believe her visit to Libya was to push the 'rebels/Qatar troops and the rest of the 'boots on the ground' there to hurry up and finish the job.

We need to leave these countries alone. Reading the African media after Gadaffi's death and their reaction compared to the Western media, shows that we share now the old Imperialist view of 'brown people' and they know it. As one well respected African writer said, the killing of Gadaffi, 'our brother and champion of African independence' was a 'tragic return to the old Imperialism and a very sad day for Africa'. We are so arrogant really and that was personified by Hillary's behavior throughout that entire travesty.
