(9,688 posts)These events didn't happen that long ago but the USA has a collective will to forget, to put the past out of mind.
Then if the past is mentioned at all, there's an immediate denial accompanied by a demand for "links". "Prove it" - else it didn't happen". Even then, with the best links and proof, the links and proof aren't accepted - aren't even read.
I'm like most people. I don't "collect links" as I read or hear news, thinking beforehand that I'll need them eventually so as to prove a point on some forum where people are in permanent denial mode. So when I reference Hillary's term as SOS I just say that her signature accomplishments were "Friends of Libya" and "Friends of Syria", tearing down two more countries after Afghanistan and Iraq. But, alas, nobody can remember... Esp. the big supporters of Hillary Clinton are in total denial of her actual history. leveymg's post #39 above addresses some of that history, making much of it quite clear.
Thanks leveymg.
