The University at Buffalo chapter of the Young Democratic Socialists of America criticized the school’s decision to invite former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to speak on Wednesday, labeling her a “torturer” and “war criminal.”
Former President George W. Bush appointed Rice to the position of national security advisor, making her the first woman to hold the job. She later served as Bush’s secretary of state, the first African-American woman to have the position. “[University at Buffalo] should not dignify these actions with an honorific title and platform,” YDSA said.
In 2017, Rice told the Hudson Union Society that she gave then-CIA Director George Tenet the president’s approval to use “enhanced interrogation techniques,” which had already been vetted. “I hope that people come away from this with an understanding, that as should be the case, war was for us a last resort,” Rice told NPR of her book No Higher Honor.
She is a war criminal but not Bush and Cheney...the architects of that war...
Ditto!
Curious to call one self 'democratic' and seek to silence and demonize. The heckler veto is alive and well.
Hahahahaha......
Wanted in the Hague.
