OK, so does anyone else but me think it is a stupid idea to send a female ambassador to Libya? We are naïve not to take into account the lack of respect for women in the Middle East where women can’t even drive. How do we expect to gain any ground diplomatically when we send a woman to negotiate for us? Rice was a disaster in that region of the world, as was Hillary. I’m not saying women aren’t smart and capable, but we are being stupid not to take realities into account when we appoint people to these positions based on politically correct assumptions that because we think women are equal Muslim leaders must respect our choices as well. How they must despise us. I hear Putin left Kerry waiting for three hours last week. No one respects us anymore because we are digging our own grave with our idiocy.
And yes it is extremely stupid to send a woman ambassdor to any Moselm country.
