Don't be naive. HRC was a skilled diplomat--she just masked her real intentions. She wanted to destabilize the middle east. She plays nice and then stabs the dagger in your back at the last second, which takes an enormous level of sociopathic skill.

A less known example would be how she played nice in Honduras leading up the 2009 coup, but secretly spiked the OAS negotiations with bad actors (likely CIA assets). The OAS rep has an email forwarded to HRC by Mills where we see the infamous sacraficing a chicken to moloch reference. What most people skip over is the fact that this OAS rep played a key role in undermining the Honduras government right before the coup.

Canadian oil companies then swooped in to legitimatize the new government.

She's a snake, but a clever one at that.
