Susan Rice - Page 8

National Security adviser Susan Rice says that the fight with Islamic State terrorists is not part of a civilizational struggle, echoing a sentiment promoted by President Obama.

Former Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel gave an interview to Foreign Policy, billed as his first public interview since he was forced out of office in February. He said the White House sought to personally “destroy” him during his final days.

ABC News’s George Stephanopoulos asked Hillary Clinton about the long-standing claims by families of the Benghazi dead that she peddled the administration’s phony “video protest” narrative to their faces, at the memorial ceremony for their loved ones.

President Obama is sending a clear message to the world about what he thinks is crucial. He says he’ll travel to the climate change summit in Paris next week, calling it an important message to Islamic State terrorists.

In her most dramatic speech to date about climate change, National Security Advisor Susan Rice suggests climate change was partially responsible for the conflict in Syria and represents a looming threat to the entire world.

There are, as Isaiah Berlin said, foxes who try to do many things, and hedgehogs who do only one. In foreign policy, Americans are hedgehogs: we win wars. The best foreign policy for the U.S. is an ever-stronger military. Beyond that, we are adrift.

“I do believe he will have some time to spend privately with his family,” Rice confirmed, but cited constraints on time and logistics for Obama’s schedule as to why he would be unable to personally visit his father’s village of Kogelo. Obama leaves for his trip to Kenya tomorrow.

National Security Adviser Susan Rice said “we should expect” that some of the money Iran gets under sanctions relief as a result of the nuclear deal “would go to the Iranian military and could potentially be used for the kinds

Newly released emails suggest Hillary Clinton’s view of the Benghazi attack shifted over time.

Former CIA Director Mike Morell said that one of the lines in the Benghazi talking points about blaming a YouTube video “is crossing the line between national security and politics” in an interview broadcast on Monday’s “Special Report” on the

Susan Rice now says there is “no military solution” to the situation in Yemen. It’s a far different message than the president delivered in September.

When I travelled for two weeks in working class areas of Cuba last year, a Cuban worker explained to me that while they hear endlessly from the government about the “American embargo against Cuba,” the real problem is the “internal embargo”—the embargo that the government elite has imposed on the Cuban people to keep them from participating in the economies of the elite and the outside world.

In late December, 2013 The New York Times whitewashed the Benghazi Islamist terrorist attack, claiming that based “on extensive interviews with Libyans in Benghazi who had direct knowledge of the attack there and its context, turned up no evidence that Al Qaeda or other international terrorist groups had any role in the assault.”

Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl has been charged with treason, his lawyer says, but the White House is not commenting on the news yet.

National Security Advisor Susan Rice defended the prisoner swap for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl on the June 1, 2014 brodcast of ABC’s “This Week” by saying Bergdahl “served the United States with honor and distinction.” Regarding the desertion allegations, she said

Obama’s National Security Advisor, Susan Rice, fell for a social media hoax on Monday, posting that a famous Nigerian writer had died that day. But in fact, the author died two years ago.

The Obama administration is using Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s remark on the campaign trail about the impossibility of a Palestinian state as an excuse to increase diplomatic pressure on Israel for deep concessions at the UN. Though Netanyahu has made efforts to smooth over the dispute, the White House is refusing to forgive him, suggesting that it is pursuing a plan for retribution, regardless. The result will be to deny Israel strategic depth as it faces new threats.

Monday at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), National Security Advisor Susan Rice discussed the fight against anti-semitism and the United State’s unwavering commitment to be an ally in that fight. Rice said, “The United States will never, ever

WASHINGTON, D.C.—The audience at Susan Rice’s Monday night speech at AIPAC’s (America-Israel Public Affairs Committee) 2015 Policy Conference expressed open displeasure with the Obama administration’s policies towards Iran—not by booing the National Security Advisor—but by applauding in approval of policies she disagreed with.

The White House is angry about what it calls a “despicable attack” ad against National Security Adviser Susan Rice.

Is there any dirty job for the Obama Administration that Susan Rice is not prepared to do?

President Barack Obama is sending National Security Advisor Susan Rice and UN Ambassador Samantha Power–widely seen as among the most anti-Israel members of his administration–to address a prominent pro-Israel gathering next week. The move is described by the Associated Press as an effort to mend fences after the administration had withheld speakers from the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) policy conference. In reality, it is a further slap in the face.

On Tuesday’s airing of “The Charlie Rose Show,” National Security Adviser Susan Rice discussed the scheduled upcoming address from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to a joint session of Congress. According to Rice, the address injects politics into the U.S.-Israel relationship, which

National Security Advisor Susan Rice says Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit next month to address congress is a mistake. She describes it as a partisan exercise that would damage the relationship that Israel has with the United States.

National Security Advisor Susan Rice formally released President Barack Obama’s new National Security Strategy at the Brookings Institution on Friday, to mixed reviews. The document repeated many of the president’s controversial claims from recent days, such as that talks have “stopped the progress of Iran’s nuclear program.” One element of the strategy is already obsolete: it commits to “seek a stable Yemen” on the day Iranian-backed rebels have taken control of the country.

POLITICO Senior Staff Writer Glenn Thrush said that “time and time again” there was a “dissonance” between the White House and the Pentagon in a discussion on Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl on Tuesday’s “NOW with Alex Wagner” on MSNBC. “[There’s] this
