Glenn Greenwald: Hillary Clinton Has Embraced Some of the World’s Most Brutal Dictators (Video)
Speaking on “Democracy Now!” The Intercept journalist calls out the
former secretary of state on her hypocritical statements regarding
Bernie Sanders’ comments about Fidel Castro and Nicaragua’s Sandinista
government when she has supported dictators and taken a war-hawk stance
throughout her career.
In reference to a recent speech Clinton gave to the Israel lobby
AIPAC, Greenwald says her talking points form “part of her moving to the
right in order to position herself for the general election by
affirming some of the United States’ worst and most violent policies.”
On the other hand, host Amy Goodman and Greenwald point out,
Democratic candidate Bernie Sanders has defended Palestinians with
statements The Intercept journalist calls “almost shocking to the ear”
because the terms he used to describe Israeli occupation are not used by
mainstream politicians.
