  • On Tuesday, April 8th, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright participated in a wide-ranging conversation with Ambassador Daniel Benjamin, Director of the John Sloan Dickey Center for International Understanding at Dartmouth. In a 90-minute appearance, Secretary Albright discussed her service as Secretary of State and US Ambassador to the United Nations and provided insights into some of the critical issues of today. She also addressed her work around the world as a lifelong champion of democracy promotion, and, as the nation's first female Secretary of State, her advocacy for involving more women in international affairs as well as the challenges for women of balancing life and work in the high-pressure arena of politics and policy. A question and answer period followed the conversation.
    In 1997, Dr. Albright was named the first female Secretary of State and became, at that time, the highest ranking woman in the history of the U.S. government. As Secretary of State, Dr. Albright reinforced America's alliances, advocated for democracy and human rights, and promoted American trade, business, labor, and environmental standards abroad. From 1993 to 1997, Dr. Albright served as the U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations and was a member of the President's Cabinet.
    Prior to her service in the Clinton Administration, she served as President of the Center for National Policy; was a member of President Jimmy Carter's National Security Council and White House staff; and served as Chief Legislative Assistant to U.S. Senator Edmund Muskie.
    Dr. Albright is a Professor in the Practice of Diplomacy at the Georgetown University School of Foreign Service. She chairs both the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs and the Pew Global Attitudes Project and serves as president of the Truman Scholarship Foundation. She serves on the U.S. Department of Defense's Defense Policy Board, a group tasked with providing the Secretary of Defense with independent, informed advice and opinion concerning matters of defense policy. Dr. Albright also serves on the Boards of the Council on Foreign Relations, the Aspen Institute and the Center for American Progress. In 2009, Dr. Albright was asked by NATO Secretary General Anders Fog Rasmussen to Chair a Group of Experts focused on developing NATO's New Strategic Concept.

    Check out John Lash's interview on Redice Creations.
    MA says: "WE Think the price (of killing 500,000 Iraqi children) is worth it."
    Who does she mean by WE?
    She doesn't actually speak for most good hearted Americans.
    Who is the real enemy??

      You are the real enemy and a liar.
      Whereas it was widely believed that the sanctions more than doubled Iraq's child mortality rate, research following the 2003 U.S.-led invasion of Iraq has shown that commonly cited data were fabricated by the Iraqi government and that "there was no major rise in child mortality in Iraq after 1990 and during the period of the sanctions".[129][130] Albright addressed the controversy at length in a 2020 memoir: "In fact, the producers of 60 Minutes were duped. Subsequent research has shown that Iraqi propagandists deceived international observers ... Per a 2017 article in the British Medical Journal of Global Health, the data 'were rigged to show a huge and sustained-and largely non-existent-rise in child mortality ... to heighten international concern and so get the international sanctions ended.' ... This is not to deny that UN sanctions contributed to hardships in Iraq or to say that my answer to Stahl's question wasn't a mistake. They did, and it was. ... U.S. policy throughout the 1990s was to prevent Iraq from reconstituting its most dangerous weapons programs. Short of another war, UN sanctions were the best means for doing so."[131]

      Why do outfits like the Dickey Center honour and pay tribute to war criminals like her? It should in my opinion be renamed the Dickhead Center.
