Ahead of attack, Hillary Clinton called for strikes against Syrian airfields – ABC News

Hours before the U.S. launched airstrikes against Syria, former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton spoke out Thursday about how she would respond to Tuesday's chemical attack in Syria, promoting U.S. action to prevent further attacks with civilian casualties.

Speaking at the Women in the World summit in New York City, Clinton said that the U.S. "should have been more willing to confront [Syrian President Bashar al-Assad]," before Russia got involved in the country's civil war and with Iran's participation limited to ground-based assistance.

"Assad had an air force and that air force is the cause of most of the civilian deaths as weve seen over the years and as we saw again in the last few days," said Clinton. "I really believe we should have and still should take out his airfields and prevent him from being able to use them to bomb innocent people and drop sarin gas on them."

Garbage Millennial Website: Hillary Clinton Is The Sixth Most Beautiful Woman On Earth – The Federalist

Not in politics. Not in America. But on the entire earth.

A website that purports to be a content creator for millennials is claiming that failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is the sixth most beautiful woman on planet earth.

Yes. You read that sentence correctly. The woman who resembles a velociraptor in a wig is being touted by a garbage millennial websitecalled Buzznet (huh, wonder where they got the idea for that name?) as a regular Helen of Troy.

In a list entitled Top 30 Worlds Most Beautiful Women of 2017, Buzznet names Margot Robbie (duh), Gigi Hadid (of course), and Gal Gadot (flames emoji).

Aaaaand we get to number six on the list.

Woof.

According to my research, Buzznet isnt the only platformto offer such a high opinion of Hillary Clintons facial structure. Theres a Facebook pagewith 47 likes calledHILLARY CLINTON: THE WORLDS MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. Ironically, or perhaps accurately, theres nothing on the page. Its totally blank aside from a profile photo. Chris Matthews also thinks shes a hot little number, and a reporter for The New York Timeshas the hots for her too.

Say what you will about Hillary Clinton, but being one of the most beautiful women on the planet is just not an accurate descriptor of her. And thats fine! Not every woman needs to be beautiful in order to be effective or valuable. Hillary Clinton doesnt need to be put on the same pedestal as Beyonc or the Hadid sisters, and for a garbage website thats pretending to like, totally get millennials its just insulting.

Hillary Clinton: ‘Take out’ Assad’s air fields – Washington Examiner

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton wants the U.S. to intervene to keep Syrian leader Bashar Assad from being able to deploy his Air Force for attacks on his own citizens.

"Assad has an air force, and that air force is the cause of most of these civilian deaths as we have seen over the years and as we saw again in the last few days," Clinton said during a speech at the Women in the World summit in New York City on Thursday evening.

"And I really believe that we should have and still should take out his airfields and prevent him from being able to use them to bomb innocent people and drop sarin gas on them."

The comment comes two days after a chemical attack that killed more than 70 people.

Clinton, who lost the 2016 presidential election as the Democratic nominee, once again called for a no-fly zone to be instituted over Syria.

"I still believe we should have done a no-fly zone," Clinton told attendees, knocking Obama's passive policy toward Assad. "We should have been more willing to confront Assad."

Instead, Clinton blamed Russia for backing Assad. Putin "has basically weighed in, particularly with air power, to support this fight to the death policy the Assad has."

Clinton also compared Vladimir Putin's background to Assad's, saying both have similar ways of leading.

"He [Assad] is absolutely a prisoner of his family's expectations, his dead father's looming presence and his delusion, that I believe he now probably could pass a lie detector about, that everyone who oppose him is a terrorist," Clinton said. "That is how Putin thinks."

Hillary Clinton attends 'War Paint' musical on Broadway

NEW YORK (AP) The new musical "War Paint," about two powerful women, had another one in the audience Thursday.

Hillary Clinton, with longtime top aide Huma Abedin, attended opening night of the show about cosmetics titans Helena Rubinstein and Elizabeth Arden, who were fierce competitors as they defined beauty in the 20th century. It stars Patti LuPone and Christine Ebersole.

Clinton has been a frequent visitor to Broadway, catching the musicals "In Transit" and "The Color Purple."

"War Paint" was inspired by the book of the same title by Lindy Woodhead, and the documentary "The Powder & the Glory" by Ann Carol Grossman and Arnie Reisman.
