Former US Amb to the UN now National Sec. Adviser to President |
First of all, Rice let the Arab world and their partners in crimes, the Communist block and Socialist Europe, voted to elevate Palestinian status at the UN General Assembly from an observing status to permanent membership.
This unprecedented move is a complete mockery of what the Jew-hating and Jew-bashing UN stands for. The Palestinian Authority is not an independent state, and one that vows to destroy Israel from the face of the earth. For a state to become a UNGA member, it must first become independent, and it must first recognize the existence of member states as independent sovereign countries. Disagreement and political rows among states are common occurrences, but when it comes to recognition of each other as independent states, each country must do. The recognition of each others existence is the foundation with which the UN was founded - it is embedded deeply in the UN Charter. So far, the PA violated the UN Charter for decades and countries that voted to support it or refrained from speaking out against the PA vote, also violated the UN Charter.

For Rice, it was her terrible incompetence that the vote sailed through the Jew-hating UNGA. We can give her the benefit of the doubt that she was merely representing the US policy on the matter. However, this is not a good defense either. A woman of her caliber should have resigned if she was forced by the Obama administration to let the PA vote cruised through without a US challenge. In the past, US ambassador threatened serious sanctions against major UN organizations which live and breath through US dollars. This threat forced many countries to back off in their support of the PLO quest to become a UNGA member. Rice chose not to do that, she sat back and watch the vultures ripping apart Israel at the UNGA's podium.
Secondly, she chose to lie for the Obama administration over the real cause(s) of the Benghazi attack which resulted in the deaths of four American diplomats. The head of mission at the US Embassy in Libya, testified that during the attack, he reported to Washington, D.C. that the attack on the US outpost in Benghazi was a terrorist attack. Few hours later, the Libyan government told US news agencies that the the attack was carried out by terrorist attackers - people with ties to Al Qeada. The right person to appear on behalf of the US government and defend the incompetency of the Obama administration should have been the former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, instead Rice chose to do the dirty laundry - spewing out the lies on national news. She went on five news channels claiming that the attack was done in response a video that mocks the prophet of Islam, Mohammed. This is the same lies Obama echoed at the floor of the UNGA in New York City a few days later. Evidence surfaced later, including damning testimonies of those on the ground in Washington, D.C. and Libya, coupled with memos subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee, found that the Obama administration altered the CIA memos and reports from witnesses in Libya, eliminating every reference to terrorists and Al Qeada and made the youtube video a central focus of their edited version. The letters obtained by the committee show the State Departments discussing the coverup, and days later, Rice carried these lies to the American people and never apologized for it.
These two important issues will surely come to surface today as Obama will announce her new job in his White House. It will be a huge mistake to put someone with a tainted reputation to oversee such a crucial calling in the Obama White House.
