I hope we show her the same kind, gentle decorum she was known for displaying

    Here she is on 60 Minutes, saying that 500,000 dead children were a price that was worth it. Coldly saying yes to the death of half a million children. I enjoy these moments when their masks start falling off. People who get in these positions of power don't have empathy towards humanity. Read the article on 'What "Psychopath" Means' in scientificamerican com and you'll see who these people are.

    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?"

    Secretary of State Madeleine Albright: "I think this is a very hard choice, but the price--we think the price is worth it."

      Halliday the U.N. humanitarian coordinator of the Oil-for-Food program during the 1990's sanctions resigned and called them "genocide" https://news.cornell.edu/stories/1999/09/former-un-official-says-sanctions-against-iraq-amount-genocide And despite the devistation of the 1st Gulf War the US bombed Iraq through it's 12 years of sanctions leading up the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
      "As pointed out by Jonathan Power, in a July 6, 2000 article, "the Pentagon says more than 280,000 sorties have been flown in the near decade since no-flight zones were imposed on Saddam in the north and south of the country."

        I will struggle to hold my tongue over her death while lib friends valorise her for doing the “gutsy woman” bit. A truly disgusting, genocidal, evil human being. May her soul receive the collective suffering of all she harmed in the name of her career and the empire, for all eternity.

          Why hold your tongue ? Inform them of her crimes and tell them she's a piece of shit and you're glad she's dead.
