Very good. I made similar comments to a discussion on ZNet led by Michael Albert, who with other commenters, totally ignored the foreign policy elements in their ratiocinations. I’m unsure if they published my remarks. Albert, although saying he’s totally disgusted
with Clinton, says that one must vote for her despite all, since Trump would be a greater disaster (domestically).

<div class="">In fact, we don’t have good evidence of what Trump would do on the foreign front—Ukraine, israe-Palestine, Syria, China, militarism, etc. we only know what to expect from Clinton.

Obama was elected with the support of those who thought he would end the wars started by the Bush administration. Instead he attacked eight countries. (George Bush attacked six.) Obama’s drone attacks - which have killed thousands (not just the hundreds he
admits to) - have been rightly called ‘the most extreme terrorist campaign of modern times.’</span><br class="" style="line-height: 1.22em; font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal;">

you may think of Donald Trump as a presidential candidate, his comments on foreign policy have broken with this horrible record. He has for example proposed diplomacy (‘deals’) with Russian president Putin (whom Clinton has on the contrary called ‘the new
Hitler’), instead of the insane provocations of Russia by the Obama administration.</span><br class="" style="line-height: 1.22em; font-family: TimesNewRomanPSMT; font-size: 18px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal;">

be voting for Jill Stein, the Green party candidate for president, whose positions on these and other matters are substantially better than those of the major party candidates. And I won’t be dissuaded by the argument that a vote for a third party candidate
