Before It’s News – by Deborah Dupre
Al Jazeera news media has expanded with its American-based network that launched with Hillary Clinton and John McCain, “Real people,” helping to promote it in “the first few minutes.”
Well, Al Jazeera is Qatar and MI6,” stated Dr. Christof Lehmann of NSNBC in a Skype message to Dupré on Thursday. “Everybody knows that.”
Historical Evidence of Hillary Clinton’s Commitment to War Crimes
“There is clear historical evidence that HIllary Clinton is committed to the war crimes practices of the USA,” stated international human rights attorney Alfred Lambremont in a recent Skype interview with Deborah Dupré.
Lambremont is presently in Kuala Lumpur as a Judge for the Kuala Lumpur War Crimes Tribunal trial of war crimes in Palestine by Israel since 1947.
“Hillary Clinton supported the genocidal acts of President Bill Clinton in Yugoslavia in 1999,” Lambremont stated in a list of crimes involving the former first lady and Secretary of State.
Lambremont highlighted words of hailed journalist and author Stephen Lendman found on David Swanson’s website, War Is A Crime (also the title of his best-selling book):
“She’s unabashedly hawkish. As first lady, she urged husband Bill to bomb Belgrade in 1999. She ignored international and constitutional law.

“She lied about Slobodan Milosevic.”
“‘You cannot let this go on at the end of a century that has seen the major holocaust of our time,’ [Hillary Clinton] said. ‘What do we have NATO for if not to defend our way of life?’”
“For 78 days, NATO ravaged Yugoslavia. Nearly everything targeted was struck. Massive destruction and disruption followed. An estimated $100 billion in damage was inflicted. A humanitarian disaster resulted. Environmental contamination was extensive.
“Large numbers were killed, injured or displaced. Two million people lost their livelihoods. Homes and communities were destroyed.
“Nobel laureate Harold Pinter called NATO’s aggression ‘barbaric (and despicable), another blatant and brutal assertion of US power using NATO as its missile (to consolidate) American domination of Europe.’”
Hillary, Drones and Torture
“Hillary Clinton has been Secretary of State in the Obama Administration during the implementation of its drone policies in the Middle East and its torture policies in Guantanamo, both of which involve war crimes,” Lambremont said.
[See: Obama Drone Strikes Not Legal, Press TV: http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2013/05/23/305042/obama-drone-strikes-not-legal/]Lendman states that Hillary Clinton “represents the worst of imperial arrogance. She [is] a reliable spear-carrier.”
“As Secretary of State, Clinton headed foreign policy. She’s complicit in crimes of war and against humanity,” summarized Lendman.
“There is certainly a gaping need for strong, fearless, adversarial journalism in the American TV landscape,” wrote Glenn Greenwald last month about the Aljazeera America launch. “There is a huge audience hungry for that type of TV journalism inside the US.
“A well-funded TV network with a new, aggressive, fearless investigative approach and a well-recognized global brand name could certainly succeed,” Greenwald said. “Whether AJAM will seek to fill that need, or will run away from it, remains to be seen.”
One well-funded TV network with an agreesive, fearless appraoch and a well-recognized global brand, that is increasingly succeeding in the U.S., despite its nation of origin, is Russia Today.
“The Truthseeker: We Came, We Saw, He Died (E7) report (below) is an example of demonstratedRussia Today reporting, that is more in line with award-winning human rights defenders’ reporting, such as that by the above-mentioned David Swanson, Kevin Zeese, Christof Lendmen, Alfred Lambremont and Stephen Lendman, than that of Al Jazeera.
