Samantha Power’s new memoir unwittingly crystallizes the weakness and amorality of Obama’s foreign policy

Outstanding commentary and analysis of the naivete that seems to be at the core of progressive left foreign policy.

Brian Stewart:

“…This bizarre hybrid worldview, in which human rights needed to be the fulcrum of U.S. foreign policy but without the hard power required to defend them against predatory regimes, flinches from the inconvenient truth that, in our unforgiving world, human rights will be upheld by force of arms or they will not be upheld at all. Since this stubborn fact would require an honest humanitarian to advocate either the use of power in making the world a better place or to step down off her pedestal of moral sanctimony and adapt herself to the world as it is, most human-rights activists have simply ignored it…”
