Albright says Iraq war biggest mistake in US history

Former US Secretary of State Madeleine Albright today harshly criticized the Iraq war, calling it the "biggest mistake in US history."

Asked by the Frankfurter Rundschau newspaper, whether the US invasion of Iraq was a mistake, Albright responded by saying that this is "likely the biggest wrong foreign policy decision in the history of the United States."

She pointed out that Washington did not take into account the repercussions of the Iraq war, according to the German-language transcript of Albright's interview with the Frankfurter Rundschau.

Albright made clear that America's reputation was "badly damaged, ts moral status undermined and its credibility in terms of rule of law harmed" in the wake of incidents at the Abu Ghraib prison.

The ex-US official added that America would face a hard time to restore its image as role model in the world.

Seems Ms. Albright has a short and distorted memory. I wonder what she thinks of this moment in American foreign policy:


Hey Madeleine, you think maybe this might have been a foreign policy mistake of some small import? You remember your new best buddy Kim Jung Il, don't you? You remember the really groovy deal you made with him, you know, the one in which you and Billie Boy gave away the farm, and then turned around a sold our intercontinental ballistic missile technology to the Communist Chinese? God what a horrible hypocritical beast you are.

Maybe the guilt from all of those dead people in Africa you allowed to be slaughtered has clouded your memory.
