I'm not talking about the Monica Lewinsky thing with Clinton. I'm suggesting that the American Voter doesn't do too much research as to what policies are implemented regarding foreign countries unless they affect them directly. Clinton's crimes helped are economy since he supplied many rebel(I used that because terrorist is a lot stronger) groups with weapons and money which would stimulate the economy. GWB on the other hand hasn't committed near the international crimes that Clinton did, but he will get nailed because he hasn't done anything for the economy. Here's some of the things Clinton did. He entered Iraq even after the internal courts denied permission reason," Sadam was guilty of using weapons of mass destruction against his neighbors as well as his own people."-Albright. Now the government says Iraq has never had weapons of mass destructions, hmmm *scratches chin*. Did these weapons ever exist or did Clinton need a reason to exert power on a smaller country to show that America can still kick butt. The above incident was in Clinton's second term. June 1993 Clinton orders a missile attack on Iraq, reason,"Self-defense against an armed attack"-Albright. Mainly because they say the Iraqi's attempted to assassinate Bush a few months earlier(no proof of Iraqi involvment to this day). Why was this attack in question is that Clinton never received authorized permission from the Security Council. When Clinton returned to office for his second term he basically told the UN Security Council, we'll do what we want(in more diplomatic terms). Israeli attacks on Lebanon killed tens of thousands and drove hundreds of thousands from their homes. Turkey had a massive ethnic cleansing. In both of these atrocities the Clinton administration supplied the Israeli's and Turkish with arms, which increased as the atrocities increased. Also Clinton supported Suharto's rise to power calling him,"Our man" as he killed tens of thousands of his own people. While he was condemning Sadam for the same thing. ASIL(American Society of International Law) in March 1999,"International law is today probably less highly regarded in our country than at any time."
I ask you if this does not prove that American's could care less what a president does along as their pockets are stuffed. It's not like these are isolated in his second term of office, these blatent international crimes happen all throughout his term in office. Yet they voted him back in office. And now Bush goes to war with Iraq(probably against international law but not sure) and the Democrats want to bash him and say he's a war monger with no respect for international law. When you let Clinton, a democrat, piss on international law and he gets praised and re-elected, well praised until he can't keep his penis in his pants.
