Clinton Ready to “Sound the Alarm”
Yesterday, standing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee for her confirmation hearing, Secretary of State nominee Hilary Clinton called ending “human devastation in Darfur” an aim of the incoming Barack Obama administration’s foreign policy.This is an area of great concern to me, as it is to the president-elect. We are putting together the options that we think are available and workable.
Upon her arrival to the hearing, Clinton was met by 15 student activists belonging to the anti-genocide organization STAND. These individuals were there to kindly remind Clinton of her previous strong words for Sudan and its president Omar Al-Bashir. However, Clinton appears to be in no need of reminding – stating that she is ready to “sound the alarm” about the Darfur crisis.
