  "If we use the word 'genocide,' " Rice allegedly asked her colleagues, "and are seen as doing nothing, what will be the effect on the November [congressional] election?" . . .
  
  About Rwanda, Rice later told Power, "I swore to myself that if I ever faced such a crisis again, I would come down on the side of dramatic action, going down in flames if that was required," which might explain Rice's passion about Darfur.
  
  CHANGE we can believe in. Meh.

  There is definitely a spiritual, not religious, quality/aspect, of the President Elect that is clearly manifested in his vision, not only of the United States, but of the planet as a whole. Ant the people he has surrounded himself with. They seem to be responding to Edwin Burk's line,"Evil will always prevail as long as good men do nothing, and more so to the eternal spiritual message of all times. PEACE ON EARTH AND GOOD WILL TO ALL,

  James, Question for you and your readers. If this mistake of this magnitude had been committed by a military officer what do you suppose would have become of him/her.

  I would prefer someone like her to be Secretary of State than any of the big names floated around.
  
  Kwiebe, no presidential candidate is perfect, even the third party ones. I think Obama will bring us change we can believe in.

  I sure hope Obama keeps Rice, and keeps her on Foreign Policy. She's shown herself to be solidly in Obama's corner and a tough cooke while knowing her Foreign Policy s**t.

  I am increasingly in awe of the wisdom and pragmatism of Obama. Susan Rice has academic and experiential credentials no one can challenge, and she freely admits to mistakes. Incredibly bright (Rhodes scholar, Phi Beta Kappa) and daughter to brilliant parents, the standard of excellence Obama fosters gives me hope. I can't wait for January 20th

  Her kids are little darlings, her daughter is too cute. I love the fact that this woman who has a very diplomatic approach will be coming in after eight years of war-mongerring and fraud. I think it is a strog message to send across the entire world, we need to work together as a global community and coming up with solutions to conflict and unrest. Thank you President Obama, thank you so much for this appointment.

  The African Union, Arab League, Islamic nations, G-77 nations 130 countries, China Russia are siding with Sudan against International Criminal Court. If the UN Security Council does not delay or rescind ICC criminal charges these nations will revoke the International Criminal Court charter. Susan Rice United Nations ambassador has overplayed her hands in setting up Omar al-Bashir for war crimes so that western corporations can cease control of Sudan’s natural resources. Susan Rice has working on ceasing Sudan’s natural resources sense the Clinton administration. Susan Rice was playing checkers against Sudan but the rest of the third world knew her plans and these nations played chess against Susan Rice and checkmated her. Susan Rice boss President Barack Obama now has to deal with Susan Rice abortion by appointing a special envoy retired Air Force General Scott Gration. Not good for Susan Rice a major failure less than a month on the job. Why Sudan is so important? In the last 5 years their oil deposits are 5 to 10 times larger than expected and huge high-yield deposits of Gold Silver Platinum Uranium and other precious metals were discovered. Sudan’s agricultural land has the richest red volcanic soil in the world but poor water distribution. A new dam was completed with 1 gigawatt of electricity and water for a massive water irrigation system. Soon Sudan will not need any food aid and will be a major food exporter.
  Susan Rice foreign policy disasters
  Should the African Union draw up list of undesirable people banned from the African continent it should be Susan Rice and her family at the top of the list. Susan Rice is responsible genocide in Rwanda supplying weapons Sudanese People's Liberation Army (SPLA) which has waged a totally unsuccessful but nevertheless genocidal war against the Sudan government since 1983. While Susan Rice was engaging in highly publicized shuttling among Central African capitals, to demand that Congo allies Angola and Zimbabwe withdraw their troops from the Congo, in order to prevent a "wider conflagration, her underlings were in the process of vetting private contractors to give logistical support to the Ugandan- and Rwandan-backed rebels in the Congo. Every policy that Susan Rice has formulated has been a complete failure ending in millions of innocents Africans lives lost. If there is anyone who should be put on trial for war crimes in Africa it would be Susan Rice. If Susan Rice would be ever convicted of war crimes I would the first to pull the switch to save more millions of future Africans lives.
  It is also clear that the West and the Zionist who were supplying weapons to several otherwise peaceful ethnic factions externally creating an ethnic and sectarian civil war in which none existed before the discovery oil and gas that instigated the conflict in the Congo and Sudan in the Darfur region. When the Chinese where willing to invest billions of US Dollar reserves in oil and gas drilling pipelines and infrastructure improvements such as railways roads water and irrigation projects hospitals schools universities in Sudan that’s when the conflict started. The Zionist created a sectarian war between religious and ethnic group’s civil warfare than casualties mounted and the Zionist controlled media and their political lackeys instantly blamed the conflict on the Sudanese government. The United States and the European Union threaten economic sanctions against Sudanese government for the sectarian ethnic groups’ civil warfare originally created by the Zionist with the support of United States and the European Union. Sudanese government is an innocent bystander by a Zionist created civil warfare. Sudanese government primary interest is industrializing Sudan into an economic power equal to South Africa or better.
