      And I suppose that you have reliable evidence to support her being a war criminal, right? Otherwise you’d just be mouthing off in the comments like all the others of a similar tone to yours. And *surely* that isn’t the case?

    Samantha Powers was so eager to begin missile attacks into Syria that she opposed getting the approval of Congress. It’s also been reported that she has praised the disaster which became of Libya in the name of making “democracy”. She also defends what America had done to Iraq. With little reflection, her actions speak louder than words. War war war.

      fran bran. Lit!!! Ya she also relentlessly fabricates a childish, vicious view of Russia. It’s twisted and violent. What’s her problem - is she doing all this intentionally (and profitably) as a sociopath? Or is she just stupid?

    one idealist woman that caused so much pain and problems. Be an idealist in your home. One single person can cause so much pain, is incredible, we must know who is governing us, because if the people that govern us are ignorant or even worse criminals, we are doomed. After all the mistakes she did, she is still talking and giving interviews....but what goes around comes around.

    2015 letter from Joanna Wintrol, head of the USA's Defense Threat Reduction Office in Kiev, to Litovka Serhii, head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense's "Central Sanitation and Epidemiological Department," in which the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense is explicitly listed as an "Executive Agent" for the "implementation of the Agreement Between the Department of Defense of the United States of America and the Ministry of Health of Ukraine (sic) Concerning Cooperation in the area of Prevention of Proliferation of Technology, Pathogens, and Expertise that could be used during the development of biological weapons."
