      Because everyone uses their opposition’s lawyers when there’s thousands of other choices. Additionally, everyone refuses to call a war criminal a war criminal when asked- several times.

      It’s only unsubstantiated to people who refuse to accept it.

          She was grilled over and over again, and side-stepped the question every time. Putting out a statement afterwards is simply her doing damage control. Anyone with any common sense that’s paying attention would have had no problem answering the question when asked.

          There is no defense for her shilling.

          NONE.

            “Either you’re a war criminal or you’re not. Is Vladimir Putin a war criminal?” he asked again.

            “In so many words, yes he is,” Stein said. “If you want to pull him back, if you are a world leader, you don’t begin your conversation by calling someone a war criminal.”

            Which was then followed by a written statement calling him a war criminal.

            I think she made a fair point about the difference between russia and israel. One is sponsored by the US and one is not. We have responsibility towards who we sponsor. There isnt much to gain by calling Putin a war criminal if you intend to take an office where you’d then need to negotiate with him diplomatically.

            Do you really expect the anti-war party to throw out escalating rhetoric?

              She’s a Shill, bud. And not only that, but- she’s over. Finished. The cat is out of the bag and thankfully, she will never see herself in a position of authority in America. And because of this. No one has to take any of you seriously anymore.

              So please, just stop defending her to me. It’s pointless.
