...meant to distract us from the REAL question: Why was the U.S. messing around in Libya, helping to create yet another ME disaster state, in the first place?
THAT is the question that Hillary Clinton should have been asked by somebody, but neither the Pukes in our alleged Congress, nor, of course, the Corporate (Military-Industrial-Prison-Complex) Media, nor any of our war-loving Democratic leaders, wanted that question raised, let alone answered.
So they put on this theater of the absurd, this stupid mockery of an investigative hearing, this wad of spit in our faces, to pretend that they give a damn about U.S. lives lost in the line of duty, in Libya or anywhere else, and we already know that nobody else's lives merit even a thought, or a phony hearing.
Then we turned right around and did the same goddam thing in Syria--ignoring the major asshole dictators of Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar and the UAE, and trying to destroy one of the few remaining secular governments in the Middle East!
Thus. creating. everybody's. nightmare!
I do see complicity here, among the Pukes, the Media, and most of our Democratic Party leaders, including Clinton herself, in hiding, and incessantly lying about, the real purposes of the U.S. government, military and dirty tricks agencies, in the Middle East and North Africa. These are, of course, first of all, to access and control the oil and other resources, and secondly to further enrich U.S. government/military private contractors, and thirdly, to install friendly religious dictators over the rest of the region's people, and fourthly, to play chess games with the Russians. And who suffers--besides the battered, bombed, dislocated, crushed people of these countries, and besides ourselves, forced to pay for it with our lives and our empty wallets? Our allies in Europe suffer, with a nightmare refugee problem.
THIS is the question that MUST be asked and answered: What were we DOING in Libya, at all? Where did this insane plan to overthrow the stable, recognized government of Libya come from? Who devised it? Who weaponized it? Who profited from it? Who was consulted?
There are many more questions that need to be asked and answered about U.S. military and covert operations in the Middle East. We the People are not part of that discussion. We are those who are to be propagandized--with laughably stupid hearings like that one, and in numerous other ways.
To say that Hillary Clinton "endured" this hearing, and should be praised for her endurance, and, indeed, should be elected president because she endured it--is to entirely miss the bigger picture: that neither she nor her questioners were engaged in reality. The hearing was a farce and a coverup, designed to smother any real questions about U.S. policy in the Middle East/North Africa, and most especially to smother any questions about who profits from U.S. policy.
