One of the most farcical claims in a series of farcical claims about failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is her list of so-called “accomplishments” during her tenure as Secretary of State. Though the fallout after Hillary’s State Department ousted Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi, which resulted in the death of Americans at the Benghazi embassy, is routinely cited, few mention her failure to promulgate Democracy in Burma (Myanmar); the blunder she cited in her book Hard Choices as a major success has now resulted in the genocide of thousands of the country’s Muslim minority.
Leading up to the 2016 election, Hillary touted Burma as one of her great achievements, becoming the first U.S. Secretary of State to visit the country since it fell under military dictatorship in 1962. During her opening statements at the initial Benghazi hearings, Clinton deflected accusations of mismanagement in Libya by pointing to her so-called success in Burma. “I worked with the Republican leader, Senator Mitch McConnell, to open up Burma, now Myanmar, to find democratic change,” she asserted. Her memoir Hard Choices devoted an entire chapter with similar declarations.
“While the Arab Spring was losing its luster in the Middle East, Burma was giving the world new hope that it is indeed possible to transition peacefully from dictatorship to democracy,” she wrote.
