Huma Abedin, Hillary's right hand lady and Hillary Clinton. Hillary has said she's like a daughter to her. Huma's parents have ties with the Muslim Brotherhood of which were in favor with Obama on his trip to Egypt after taking office. Hillary Diane Clinton nee Rodham, born October 26, 1947 in Chicago, Illinois, where Obama lived after being in Hawaii, was our Secretary of State who is now running for President. She was the former First Lady of the USA when her husband, William "Bill" Jefferson Clinton, was President and lived in the White House from 1993 to 2001, when in his 2nd term, her husband was found to have disgraced himself with the Lewinsky Scandal. Hillary, herself a lawyer, at the time was an injured party in the affair. Now they have a good marriage. After this period, "from 2001 to 2009, she served as a United States Senator from New York." New York has the largest Jewish population, and she learned to tread carefully with Jewish or Israeli comments in order garnish votes for Senator. Regarding the Arab-Israeli conflict, Clinton has stated that she is "an emphatic, unwavering supporter of Israel's safety and security. On November 13, 2005, Clinton said that she supports the creation of the West Bank barrier, stating: "This is not against the Palestinian people. This is against the terrorists. The Palestinian people have to help to prevent terrorism. They have to change the attitudes about terrorism." She has also requested that Palestinian leaders "change all textbooks in all grades" from the current ones, which are "hate-filled, violent and radical." This was excellent! I've been saying this over and over. No other presidential hopeful has. "On July 18, 2006, Clinton spoke at a pro-Israel rally in New York in front of the United Nations. She supported Israel's efforts in the 2006 Israel-Lebanon conflict: "We are here to show solidarity and support for Israel. We will stand with Israel, because Israel is standing for American values as well as Israeli ones." Excellent! As a senator and throughout her career, Clinton had supported a law that requires identifying Jerusalem as the capital of Israel. In September 2011, as Secretary of State, she filed a brief with the US Supreme Court opposing "any American action, even symbolically, toward recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel" because of the influence it might have on the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. Of course, this goes against Israel's needs and wishes. She opposed Jerusalem being recognized as Israel's capital! This went against what she had felt and said as a senator! Again, what a politician says and what they do differ too often. |
During an interview while the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict was ongoing, Clinton said that Hamas had intentionally provoked Israel by firing rockets into that country. In regard to whether Israel's response against Hamas had been proportionate, she said, "I'm not a military planner, but Hamas puts its missiles – its rockets – in civilian areas. Part of it is that Gaza's pretty small and it's very densely populated. They put their command and control of Hamas military leaders in those civilian areas. Israel, I know, has sent warnings and tried to get people to move, but in any kind of conflict there are going to be civilian casualties, and we need to try to get to a cease-fire as soon as possible."
All this, I must admit, is a surprise to me in that Hillary has stood up for Israel. Has she been butting horns with Obama? These facts don't seem to be matters like Obama's feelings about Israel. He was demanding that Israel go back to the 67 lines that weren't even boundary lines which was an impossible death wish for Israel.
Having been First Lady, she feels she has the experience to be President.
She graduated from Wellesley College in 1969. Wellesley has been very anti-Semitic and even fired the staff of Hillel, a Jewish group on campus recently. It was started in 1875 as a religious college " to
educate young women “for the glory of God and the service of the Lord Jesus Christ.” It designed its admission policy to cultivate and perpetuate a white Anglo-Saxon Protestant elite.Then she graduated Yale Law School which she attended from 1969 to 1973. Hillary ran unsuccessfuly for President in 2008 against Obama. Because of this, perhaps, he appointed her Secretary of State. At the time, she did very badly in her campaign planning, as Mark Halperin showed in his book about the 2008 campaigns, Game Change.
Former Senator and Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, has supported the US invasion of Iraq which turns out to have been a violation of the UN Charter. She has shown hostility toward the International Criminal Court. She supported international recognition of Morocco's illegal annexation of occupied Western Sahara and has attacked the UN of many of its key agencies. In my view, these were all pretty good points. I've been against the UN for many years because of how they have treated Israel. I cheered when we went into Iraq after 9/11 which I'm sure many Americans did.

| Hillary speaking in Jerusalem, 2012 |
An ex-US ambassador to Israel, Thomas Pickering, asked her in 2011 to support Palestinian protests which was found in an email to a senior advisor forwarding his son's anti-Zionist articles of which abound on the internet. Is this what she is depending on in garnering information about Israel? It's what I fear happening to many of our leaders in Washington DC. Without an excellent background in not only current events and past historical facts about the Middle East, our leaders have nothing really to to rely on to make decisions on their own.
By July 2015, it was known more through these emails of her connection to Qatar. "Altogether, on Tuesday the State Department released over 1,900 of Clinton’s emails (3,000 pages). Within this bulk of information, there are 19 emails that have to do with Clinton/ Mozah getting acquainted with each other. Sheikha Mozah was unable to meet with Clinton on suggested dates in June 2009 “due to prior commitments” and proposed to meet “immediately after Ramadan/Eid week of September 27, 2009.”
Another email found from 2010 was a suggestion from Anne-Marie Slaughter, Hillary's former director of policy planning, that Hillary create a "Pledge for Palestine" campaign to give support to a Palestinian charity to encourage Palestinians to stay at the negotiating table. Regardless of this, they didn't, but it does show a preference for the Palestinians over Israel. Now, of course, the situation has become untenable, and Israel has given up trying due to current events happening in Israel that show the Palestinian unwillingness for becoming peaceful neighbors.
I have not found Hillary's statements about her position on Israel like I have with a few other candidates. Wikipedia did the best job that I have found. The question is, how much is for show to gain votes and how much is for real in how she really feels about Israel. Her daughter has married a Jewish man and has children, now. So has Trump's daughter. These 2 young mothers are friends. How much will either candidate view Israel in a more positive light because of this? Will it shape their thinking at all about Israel? One can not guess. How much has Hillary been affected by Obama and Huma, who I have wary feeling that doesn't view Israel in a positive or fair light?
It all depends on whether you believe in the Democratic party of today or the Republican. It may just be that Hillary will be running against Trump. Both say things about how they would handle Israel. We have to look at their past history even more than what they say.
Hillary is proving that her nice words pertaining to Israel are just that-words. She now calls for an OPEN APPROACH TO HAMAS! She wants to play nice-nice with the worst terrorists against Israel, and its playing into their hands. Heaven help us if Hillary becomes president. She'll be worse than Obama, and that's really what we don't need in these dire times. Read this website I just posted by Daniel Greenfield.
