Emails reveal Hillary vetted plans to undermine Israel with covert ops

When Hillary Clinton famously blamed her husband’s bimbo eruption troubles on a “vast right wing conspiracy,” she revealed, via projection, her own approach to getting things done.  Covertly pulling strings behind the scenes, mobilizing forces to act while maintaining personal deniability to foment events and determine outcomes is the very definition of conspiracy, and now also is revealed to be the way Hillary’s staff has been conditioned to think about action for the SecState in the latest trove of Hillary emails.

Adam Kredo of the Free Beacon highlights two emails that reveal the sort of strategies her advisers believe she would consider.  In one, dated December 18, 2011, former U.S. ambassador to Israel Thomas Pickering proposed to “use” (as in gin up) demonstrations by Palestinians in order to pressure the Israeli government to restart stalled negotiations.

Fomenting political unrest in an ally by covertly encouraging demonstrations.  Of course, they are supposed to be “nonviolent.”  In explaining how this would be accomplished, Pickering reveals a pragmatic (and therefore rather insulting) view of the nature of Palestinian culture:

It must be all and only women. Why? On the Palestinian side the male culture is to use force. Bedouins were for years tribal raiders and bride stealers from other tribes. It defined the male being and the Arabs invented 'macho'. Palestinian men will not for long patiently demonstrate — they will be inclined over time and much too soon to be frustrated and use force. Their male culture comes close to requiring it.

Pickering insists that there must be no U.S. fingerprints on the demonstrations – the conspiracy must be protected:

Is this source credible? Any other news outlets picking up the story?

Well, if the quotes in the article are accurate, they are quoting the government-provided email dump.

I believe that the reason this doesn’t get attention is the equivalent of “bimbo fatigue”.

As relations with Israel remained tense, another Clinton confidant, Anne Marie Slaughter, sent a staff-wide email to Clinton staffers recommending that they undertake a “Pledge for Palestine” campaign aimed at convincing U.S. millionaires and billionaires to donate significant portions of their wealth to the Palestinian cause.

The effort, Slaughter wrote in the September 2010 email, could help shame Israel.

“Such a campaign among billionaires/multi-millionaires around the world would reflect a strong vote of confidence in the building of a Palestinian state and could offset the ending of the moratorium for Palestinians,” Slaughter wrote. “There would also be a certain shaming effect re Israelis, who would be building settlements in the face of a pledge for peace.”

Slaughter, who described the effort as a “crazy idea,” suggested tapping the “Clinton fundraising network” in order to raise the money needed.

“With even 30 calls to the right people in the Clinton fundraising network it should be possible to generate a substantial enough amount quickly enough to capture the public imagination,” she wrote in the email, which was sent to top Clinton staffers, including Cheryl Mills and Huma Abedin.

Pickering wrote the ARB report on Benghazi ... without ever interviewing Hillary .... shock, surprise (NOT!).

Somehow, the ‘nest of vipers’ that is the current administration/government needs to be ‘sanitized’.
