Sen. Clinton to spend Thanksgiving with troops
EFLSen. Hillary Rodham Clinton will spend Thanksgiving in Afghanistan before traveling to Iraq with a former Army paratrooper turned senator to meet with soldiers and ask questions about the United Statesâ ongoing nation-building efforts. The former first lady and Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., have both been critical of the administrationâs handling of post-combat problems in the war on terrorism, particularly after major military operations ended in Iraq. Clinton and Reed said Tuesday they were concerned about the current efforts to win the "hearts and minds" of Iraqis. "This administration is run by people who have been obsessed with Saddam Hussein for more than a decade," Clinton said. "And the fact that they could have been so poorly informed and prepared raises a lot of serious questions about the decisions they are making now." What type of reception will Hillary receive from the troops? Posted by: Dragon Fly 2003-11-26 |
