During the +conversations Qaddafi asked that Syrian officers and technicians currently training the Libyan +Air Force be placed under command of the Libyan Army and allowed to fight against the rebel +forces. +(Source Comment: Senior Libyan Army officers still loyal to Qaddafi added that On February +23, President Assad told General Isam Hallaq, the commander in chief of the Syrian Air Force, +to instruct the pilots and technicians in Tripoli to help the Libyan regime, should full scale Civil +War breaks out in the immediate future.) +On March 2, a military officer with ties to Qaddfi's son Khamis stated privately that the number +of Libyan pilots defecting to the opposition has destroyed the morale and professional spirit of +the Libyan Air Force at this critical moment, when Tripoli's air superiority is its principal weapon +against insurgents. In the opinion of this individual Qaddafi and his senior military advisors are +convinced that the European Union and the U.S will impose a no-fly zone over Libya in the +immediate future. These advisors believe that the no fly zone will serve as air support for +opposition forces. They are also prepared for the Western allies to bomb anti-aircraft facilities in +and around Tripoli in preparation for the establishment of the no-fly zone.

Libyan money +helped Hafez al-Assad bribe his brother Rifaat, the author of an attempted coup d'etat in 1983, +to leave the country and go into exile in Spain and France, where he has remained ever since. +According to individuals with access to the Syrian military, Damascus has also sent a second +team of pilots and technicians to Tripoli. These are lower-ranking officers loyal to the regime +who are specialized in flying helicopters. Before their departure for Tripoli on February 23, they +met with General Allaq and General Jamil Hasan, head of Air Force's Intelligence. +(Source Comment: During the afternoon of 3 March, an associate of Saif al-Islam Qaddafi +stated that he and the Libyan leaders other family members were concerned over the +announcement of Jose Luis Moreno-Ocampo, chief prosecutor of the International Criminal +Court (ICC), announced that he was investigating Qaddafi, his sons Khamis, the commander of +the 32 battalion, and Montasem, as well as the head of Gadhafi's personal security detail, the +Director-General of the External Security Organization (Abuzaid Dorda), the spokesman of the +regime (Musa Ibrahim), and the Minister of Foreign Affairs (Mousa Kousa). This source added +that Saif al-Islam had said that Qaddafi himself found the announcement amusing.) +From: Lord Owen +Cody, +Realistically the UN will not authorise a no fly zone while Gaddafi continues to hold off bombing and +strafing but keeping it up front and on the military agenda keeps him worried. Yet for a few frustrating months +that ambivalence kept the Serbian aeroplanes on the ground before we acted. My hope is that preparations +continue with visuals of planes flying off carriers, airborne early warning planes flying and people with clout +outside the Administration demanding preparations. But and it is a big BUT what else can and should we be +doing? Encourage humanitarian ships and convoys from Egypt to bring in supplies since we must ensure the +cities in the East can hold up living standards, maybe for months. More adventurous, Egyptian Special Forces to +go in and advise, even supplying hand held missiles. It appears they have few missiles; the military in the East +having been deliberately kept ill-equipped. There is old Nasserite sentiment for a Federation of Egypt, Sudan +and Libya. I know some will say Egypt has enough problems and they should stay resolutely focused on +domestic reforms. it is delicate but words alone and the balance of advantage will slip to Gaddafi. A Gaddafi +victory is possible and needs to be weighed in the balance now when deciding what to do. +I'm more worried than I am ready to say publicly. +Yours +David +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739546 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The film also shows him as having intimate relations with women +and suggests that he was gay. +Any flesh-and-blood depiction of Muhammad is offensive to Muslims. +""This is a political movie,"" Bacile, 56, told the Associated Press, adding that he didn't expect the film to spark +such fury. ""The U.S. lost a lot of money and a lot of people in wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, but we're fighting +with ideas."" +Bacile identified himself to several news organizations as an Israeli-born Jew who works as a real estate +developer in California.

Terry +Jones, leader of a small group that holds virulently anti-Islam events. +Tuesday evening, Jones sent out a press release blaming the Muslim faith for the protests and saying the group +would be running a trailer later in the evening for the film. +The trailer was part of a one-to-two hour ""live event"" that Jones was doing from his Gainesville center for Sept. +11, said Fran Ingram, a spokeswoman for his group, Stand Up America. The whole broadcast included the +handlebar-moustached pastor in a black ""infidel"" t-shirt standing in front of a fabric lynched devil dressed in a +white turban for what they group dubbed ""International Judge Muhammed Day."" +It wasn't clear if Jones, who garnered worldwide attention in recent years with his threats to burn the Koran, +had promoted ""The Innocence of Muslims"" before the rioting began. +Asked if Jones was connected in any way with the making of the film, Ingram said she couldn't comment. +Alice Crites contributed to this story. +© The Washington Post Company +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739560 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Alongside our men and women in uniform, they represent the +best traditions of a bold and generous nation. +In the lobby of this building, the State Department, the names of those who have fallen in the line of duty are inscribed +in marble. Our hearts break over each one. And now, because of this tragedy, we have new heroes to honor and more +friends to mourn. +Chris Stevens fell in love with the Middle East as a young Peace Corps volunteer teaching English in Morocco. He joined +the Foreign Service, learned languages, won friends for America in distant places, and made other people's hopes his +own. +In the early days of the Libyan revolution, I asked Chris to be our envoy to the rebel opposition. He arrived on a cargo +ship in the port of Benghazi and began building our relationships with Libya's revolutionaries. He risked his life to stop a +tyrant, then gave his life trying to help build a better Libya. The world needs more Chris Stevenses. I spoke with his +sister, Ann, this morning, and told her that he will be remembered as a hero by many nations. +Sean Smith was an Air Force veteran. He spent 10 years as an information management officer in the State Department, +he was posted at The Hague, and was in Libya on a brief temporary assignment. He was a husband to his wife Heather, +with whom I spoke this morning. He was a father to two young children, Samantha and Nathan. They will grow up being +proud of the service their father gave to our country, service that took him from Pretoria to Baghdad, and finally to +Benghazi. +The mission that drew Chris and Sean and their colleagues to Libya is both noble and necessary, and we arid the people +of Libya honor their memory by carrying it forward. This is not easy. Today, many Americans are asking indeed, I asked +myself — how could this happen? How could this happen in a country we helped liberate, in a city we helped save from +destruction? This question reflects just how complicated and, at times, how confounding the world can be +But we must be clear-eyed, even in our grief. This was an attack by a small and savage group — not the people or +Government of Libya. Everywhere Chris and his team went in Libya, in a country scarred by war and tyranny, they were +hailed as friends and partners. And when the attack came yesterday, Libyans stood and fought to defend our post, Some +were wounded. Libyans carried Chris' body to the hospital, and they helped rescue and lead other Americans to safety. +And last night, when I spoke with the President of Libya, he strongly condemned the violence and pledged every effort +to protect our people and pursue those responsible. +The friendship between our countries, borne out of shared struggle, will not be another casualty of this attack. A free +and stable Libya is still in America's interest and security, and we will not turn our back on that nor will we rest until +those responsible for these attacks are found and brought to justice. We are working closely with the Libyan authorities +to move swiftly and surely. We are also working with partners around the world to safeguard other American embassies, +consulates, and citizens. +There will be more time later to reflect, but today, we have work to do. There is no higher priority than protecting our +men and women wherever they serve. We are working to determine the precise motivations and methods of those who +carried out this assault. Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior, along with the protest that took place at our +Embassy in Cairo yesterday, as a response to inflammatory material posted on the Internet. America's commitment to +religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear —there is no justification for this, +none. Violence like this is no way to honor religion or faith. And as long as there are those who would take innocent life +in the name of God, the world will never know a true and lasting peace. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739562 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

On September 12, 2012 Libyan President Mohammed Yussef el Magariaf +told senior advisors that the death of the U.S. Ambassador at the hands of Islamist +militia forces represents a threat to the future of the newly elected General National +Congress (GNC) Government. According to a sensitive source, el Magariaf +believes that the primary goal of this and other attacks on Western facilities is to +demonstrate that the GNC cannot protect its non-Islamic friends. Libyan security +officials believe that the attack was carried out by forces of the Islamist militia +group calling itself the Ansar al Sharia brigade; working out of camps in the +Eastern suburbs of Benghazi. These officials added that their sources indicate that +this group is led by former members of the old Libyan Islamic Fighting Group +(LIFG), some of whom are loyal to Islamist General Abdelhakim Belhaj. The +same officials were quick to point out that they have no evidence that Belhaj had +any direct involvement in this attack. They also have no direct information as to +whether this assault has anything to do with the death of Libyan born al Qai'da +leader Abu Yahya al- Libi, but they are pursuing this theme.

According to this source, the immediate events were set in motion by a +statement made by a Muslim Cleric in Egypt saying that the internet film was +going to be shown across the United States on September 11 in an effort to insult +Muslims on the anniversary of the attacks on the New York World Trade Center in +2001. This statement inspired increasingly hostile demonstrations at the U.S. +Embassy in Cairo, and at diplomatic facilities in Libya. In Benghazi, reporting +from security sources states, approximately twenty one (21) Ansar al Sharia +fighters left their base in East Benghazi just after sundown infiltrated the crowd of +about 2,000 demonstrators at the U.S. Consulate. These forces, operating under +cover of darkness, opened fire on the consulate, eventually setting it on fire with +rocket propelled grenades. These fighters then withdrew to their camp. El +Magariaf ordered security officials to identify and arrest the attackers, adding that +he had been in touch with Egyptian President Mohm_med Morsi, and the two +agreed that their intelligence and security personnel will cooperate in this matter. +(Note: Some of the Libyan officials believe that the entire demonstration was +organized as cover for the attack, however; they point out that there is no evidence +of such a complex operation at this time. +3.(Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, Libyan security +officers also informed el Magariaf that the attacks had been planned for +approximately one month, based on casing information obtained during an early +demonstration at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi.

These fighters are located in camps in Eastern Libya; and +Libyan officials doubt they can penetrate these camps because the militia's are +better armed than the forces of the new National Army. +4. In the opinion of a separate source El Magariaf continues to believe that +the attacks were planned and carried out in a political atmosphere where a portion +of the Libyan population is focused on past cooperation between Western +intelligence and security services, and the regime of former dictator Muammar al +Qaddafi. According to this source, el Magariaf realizes that the death of the U.S. +Ambassador dictates that he must find tangible solutions to the problems tied to +disarming the militias, dealing Salafist violence against the followers of Sufi +beliefs, and efforts to discredit his government through linking him to Western +intelligence services. El Magariaf instructed his security officials to cooperate +with their U.S. counterparts. He also warned all of his advisors to be prepared for +U.S. retaliation against the suspected perpetrators of this attack, and the angry +public reaction that is sure to follow. +5. (Source Comment: A separate, particularly sensitive source added that in +private conversation el Magariaf stated that if his government cannot protect a +senior diplomatic official, foreign businesses will not be willing to risk opening up +new operations in Libya.

The content was virtually identical, su esting either rare coincidence or, more +likely, an unusual level of UAE-Qatari coordination at yesterday's Arab League meeting. Main points (mostly +Libya related but one Palestinian-related) are as follows: +(SBU) No-Fly Zone: The Arab League has now called for a NFZ; the UNSC needs to act. Syria was the last hold- +out, but the resolution passed. Time is wasting. Both HbJ and AbZ made the right kind of noises (but still less +than a solid commitment) that there would be some kind of Qatari and Emirati participation in an +international effort. Their chicken-and-egg question to me was, are we going to support a NFZ? If we are, +then we can talk about the other participation. +(SBU) Recognizing the Council: Both urged us to do so. I noted that the Arab League statement fell short of +recognition. They urged us to find some kind of language that would suggest moving in that direction, and I +noted our decisions to suspend the operations of the Libyan Embassy, have S meet with Mahmoud Jibril of the +Council, and send a diplomatic representative to Benghazi. They pushed for more, with HbJ going to far as to +say that recognition of the Council will help underscore to Qadhafi and his circle that he's finished. +(SBU) Jibril meeting: They each said the same thing that Gene Cretz has picked up separately, that Jibril +doesn't want media for his meeting with S unless he feels that there will be something significant out of the +meeting. HbJ is providing a plane for Jibril to get to Paris. HbJ more than AbZ agreed with me that the +meeting itself is a significant deliverable; AbZ urged us not to be slower or quieter than France. +(SBU) West Bank/Gaza: Both reacted negatively to Israeli announcements regarding ""hundreds of houses"" in +the West Bank. They asked if we were going to say anything; I noted we were still at this point getting the +facts. ""Jeff, you guys just aren't serious,"" AbZ complained. I noted the political context, in which a family was +brutally murdered. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739564 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Opponents of a no- +flight zone have put forth five main arguments, none of which, on closer examination, hold up. +It's not in our interest. Gen. Wesley K. Clark argues that ""Libya doesn't sell much oil to the United +States"" and that while Americans ""want to support democratic movements in the region,"" they are +already doing that in Iraq and Afghanistan. Framing this issue in terms of oil is exactly what Arab +populations and indeed much of the world expect, which is why they are so cynical about our +professions of support for democracy and human rights. Now we have a chance to support a new +beginning in the Muslim world — a new beginning of accountable governments that can provide +services and opportunities for their citizens in ways that could dramatically decrease support for +terrorist groups and violent extremism. It's hard to imagine something more in our strategic interest. +It will be counter-productive. Many thoughtful commentators, including Al Jazeera's director +general, Wadah Khanfar, argue that what is most important about the Arab spring is that it is coming +from Arabs themselves. From this perspective, Western military intervention will play right into +Qaddati's hands, allowing him to broadcast pictures of Western bombs falling on Arab civilians. But +these arguments, while important, must be weighed against the appeals of of Libyan opposition +fighters asking for international help, and now, astonishingly, against support for a no-flight zone by +some of the same governments that have kept their populations quiescent by holding up the specter of +foreign intervention. Assuming that a no-flight zone can be imposed by an international coalition that +includes Arab states, we have an opportunity to establish a new narrative of Western support for Arab +democrats. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739568 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

But the potential +effect of a no-flight zone must also be assessed in terms of Colonel Qaddafi's own calculations about +his future. Richard Downie of the Center for Strategic and International Studies argues that although +Colonel Qaddafi cultivates a mad-dictator image, he has been a canny survivor and political +manipulator for 40 years. He is aware of debates with regard to a no-flight zone and is timing his +military campaign accordingly; he is also capable of using his air force just enough to gain strategic +advantage, but not enough to trigger a no-flight zone. If the international community lines up against +him and is willing to crater his runways and take out his antiaircraft weapons, he might well renew his +offer of a negotiated departure. +If it does work, we don't know what we will get. Revolutions are almost always followed by internal +divisions among the revolutionaries. We should not expect a rosy, Jeffersonian Libya.

Some commentators who agree with the analysis above say we could +'better accomplish our goals by providing intelligence and arms to the opposition. That would, of +course, be much easier for us. It undoubtedly appeals to Mn Obama as a neat compromise between +the desire to help the protesters and the desire not to overrule his defense secretary's reluctance to +participate in a no-flight zone.

The +Libyan attacks were also inspired by and linked to an attack on the U.S. mission in +Egypt on the same day. At the same time, el Magariaf noted in strong terms that the +atmosphere that made fostered these incidents in Libya is the product of widespread +publicity regarding the security situation in the country between 2004 and 2010 and +the cooperation that developed between a number of Western Intelligence services and +the regime of former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi. +2. This source added that el Magariafs advisors believe that this situation adds +to the President's growing concern over the unpredictable effects that will follow +current covert efforts by his political opponents to link him directly to foreign +intelligence services. According to a separate sensitive source, el Magariaf noted that +his opponents had often tried to connect him to the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency +(CIA) through the National Front for the Salvation of Libya (NFSL), a group +established in opposition to former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi, which el Magariaf +led in the 1980s.

At the same time, this individual noted that several of el Magariafs advisors +share his concerns in this matter, pointing out that the return of Qaddafi's intelligence +chief Abdullah al-Seno-ussi for trial in Libya has heightened public interest in the +liaison relationships conducted by the CIA and British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) +with Qaddfi's intelligence and security services. These same individuals note that they +believe Islamist militia forces under the command of General Abdelhaldm Belhaj +captured files and documents describing this relationship from Qaddafi's offices in +Tripoli.

Libyan security +officials believe that the attack was carried out by forces of the Islamist militia group calling itself the +Ansar al Sharia brigade; working out of camps in the Eastern suburbs of Benghazi. These officials +added that their sources indicate that this group is led by former members of the old Libyan Islamic +Fighting Group (LIFG), some of whom are loyal to Islamist General Abdelhakirn Belhaj. The same +officials were quick to point out that they have no evidence that Belhaj had any direct involvement in +this attack. They also have no direct information as to whether this assault has anything to do with +the death of Libyan born al Qai'da leader Abu Yahya al- Libi, but they are pursuing this theme. These +officials do believe that the attackers having prepared to launch their assault took advantage of the +cover provided by the demonstrations in Benghazi protesting an internet production seen as +disrespectful to the prophet Mohammed. +2. According to this source, the immediate events were set in motion by a statement made by a +Muslim Cleric in Egypt saying that the internet film was going to be shown across the United States +on September 11 in an effort to insult Muslims on the anniversary of the attacks on the New York +World Trade Center in 2001.

In Benghazi, reporting from security sources +states, approximately twenty one (21) Ansar al Sharia fighters left their base in East Benghazi just +after sundown infiltrated the crowd of about 2,000 demonstrators at the U.S. Consulate. These +forces, operating under cover of darkness, opened fire on the consulate, eventually setting it on fire +with rocket propelled grenades. These fighters then withdrew to their camp. El Magariaf ordered +security officials to identify and arrest the attackers, adding that he had been in touch with Egyptian +President Mohmmed Morsi, and the two agreed that their intelligence and security personnel will +cooperate in this matter. (Note: Some of the Libyan officials believe that the entire demonstration was +organized as cover for the attack, however; they point out that there is no evidence of such a complex +operation at this time. +3. (Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, Libyan security officers also informed +el Magariaf that the attacks had been planned for approximately one month, based on casing +information obtained during an early demonstration at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi. The attackers +were, in the opinion of these individuals, looking for an opportunity to approach the consulate under +cover in a crowd. These officials add that government security officers admitted to el Magariaf that +they do not have the physical capacity to locate, attack, and destroy the Ansar al-Sharia brigade, +among others. They describe these forces as well-trained, hardened killers; many of whom have spent +time in Afghanistan and Yemen. These fighters are located in camps in Eastern Libya; and Libyan +officials doubt they can penetrate these camps because the militia's are better armed than the forces +of the new National Army. +4. In the opinion of a separate source El Magariaf continues to believe that the attacks were +planned and carried out in a political atmosphere where a portion of the Libyan population is focused +on past cooperation between Western intelligence and security services, and the regime of former +dictator Muammar al Qaddafi. According to this source, el Magariaf realizes that the death of the U.S. +Ambassador dictates that he must find tangible solutions to the problems tied to disarming the +militias, dealing Salafist violence against the followers of Sufi beliefs, and efforts to discredit his +government through linking him to Western intelligence services. El Magariaf instructed his security +officials to cooperate with their U.S. counterparts. He also warned all of his advisors to be prepared +for U.S. retaliation against the suspected perpetrators of this attack, and the angry public reaction that +is sure to follow. +5. (Source Comment: A separate, particularly sensitive source added. that in private +conversation el Magariaf stated that if his government cannot protect a senior diplomatic official, +foreign businesses will not be willing to risk opening up new operations in Libya. According to this +sensitive source, el Magariaf believes that a number of the Islamist militias are now being influenced +al Qai'da and other radical groups; working out of camps in the Eastern and Southeastern parts of the +country.

On September 12, 2012 Libyan President Mohammed Yussef el Magariaf told senior +advisors that the death of the U.S. Ambassador at the hands of Islamist militia forces represents a +threat to the future of the newly elected General National Congress (GNC) Government. +According to a sensitive source, el Magariaf believes that the primary goal of this and other +attacks on Western facilities is to demonstrate that the GNC cannot protect its non-Islamic +friends. Libyan security officials believe that the attack was carried out by forces of the Islamist +militia group calling itself the Ansar al Sharia brigade; working out of camps in the Eastern +suburbs of Benghazi. These officials added that their sources indicate that this group is led by +former members of the old Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG), some of whom are loyal to +Islamist General Abdelhalcim Belhaj. The same officials were quick to point out that they have +no evidence that Belhaj had any direct involvement in this attack. They also have no direct +information as to whether this assault has anything to do with the death of Libyan born al Qai'da +leader Abu Yahya al- Libi, but they are pursuing this theme. These officials do believe that the +attackers having prepared to launch their assault took advantage of the cover provided by the +demonstrations in Benghazi protesting an internet production seen as disrespectful to the prophet +Mohammed. +2. According to this source, the immediate events were set in motion by a statement +made by a Muslim Cleric in Egypt saying that the internet film was going to be shown across the +United States on September 11 in an effort to insult Muslims on the anniversary of the attacks on +the New York World Trade Center in 2001. This statement inspired increasingly hostile +demonstrations at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo, and at diplomatic facilities in Libya. In Benghazi, +reporting from security sources states, approximately twenty one (21) Ansar al Sharia fighters +left their base in East Benghazi just after sundown infiltrated the crowd of about 2,000 +demonstrators at the U.S. Consulate. These forces, operating under cover of darkness, opened +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739587 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

El Magariaf ordered security officials to identify and arrest the +attackers, adding that he had been in touch with Egyptian President Mohnimed Morsi, and the +two agreed that their intelligence and security personnel will cooperate in this matter. (Note: +Some of the Libyan officials believe that the entire demonstration was organized as cover for the +attack, however; they point out that there is no evidence of such a complex operation at this time. +3.(Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, Libyan security officers also +informed el Magariaf that the attacks had been planned for approximately one month, based on +casing information obtained during an early demonstration at the U.S. consulate in Benghazi. +The attackers were, in the opinion of these individuals, looking for an opportunity to approach +the consulate under cover in a crowd. These officials add that government security officers +admitted to el Magariaf that they do not have the physical capacity to locate, attack, and destroy +the Ansar al-Sharia brigade, among others. They describe these forces as well-trained, hardened +killers; many of whom have spent time in Afghanistan and Yemen. These fighters are located in +camps in Eastern Libya; and Libyan officials doubt they can penetrate these camps because the +militia's are better armed than the forces of the new National Army. +4. In the opinion of a separate source El Magariaf continues to believe that the attacks +were planned and carried out in a political atmosphere where a portion of the Libyan population +is focused on past cooperation between Western intelligence and security services, and the +regime of former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi. According to this source, el Magariaf realizes +that the death of the U.S. Ambassador dictates that he must find tangible solutions to the +problems tied to disarming the militias, dealing Salafist violence against the followers of Sufi +beliefs, and efforts to discredit his government through linking him to Western intelligence +services. El Magariaf instructed his security officials to cooperate with their U.S. counterparts. +He also warned all of his advisors to be prepared for U.S. retaliation against the suspected +perpetrators of this attack, and the angry public reaction that is sure to follow. +5. (Source Comment: A separate, particularly sensitive source added that in private +conversation el Magariaf stated that if his government cannot protect a senior diplomatic official, +foreign businesses will not be willing to risk opening up new operations in Libya. According to +this sensitive source, el Magariaf believes that a number of the Islamist militias are now being +influenced al Qai'da and other radical groups; working out of camps in the Eastern and +Southeastern parts of the country. These groups are receiving aid and weapons from supporters +in Sudan. In the end, el Magariaf added that while he does not expect U.S. officials to focus on +this point, he believes the attacks against the interests and citizens of the U.S. and other Western +states are aimed first at overthrowing his government, and replacing it with a strict Islamic +Republic dominated by Salafist leaders. Magariaf also warned that tribal militias loyal to the +Qaddafi family continue to present an equally dangerous threat to the new Government.) +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739587 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Protests denouncing the film have raged outside the U.S +Embassy in Egypt for three days, and demonstrators on Tuesday breached the walls +of that heavily guarded compound, pulled down an American flag and destroyed it. +In Sanaa, Yemen, hundreds of demonstrators converged on a usually-sealed-off +street in front of the embassy on Thursday for a protest that also turned violent, +witnesses said. Protesters stormed a wall, set fire to a building inside the compound, +broke windows and carried away office supplies and other souvenirs before being +pushed back and dispersed by Yemeni security forces. +""We want to expel the American ambassador,"" said Abdelwadood al-Mutawa, a +protester who was walking out of the embassy compound. He said he was +motivated by reports of the movie mocking the prophet Muhammad. ""We cannot +accept any insult to our prophet,"" Mutawa said. ""It's a red line."" +Another protester said that some of the security forces protecting the building +appeared sympathetic to the demonstrators' cause. ""Some soldiers were telling me, +'These are dogs, and we cannot accept insulting our prophet,' ""said Yusef +Mohammad. +Smaller protests were reported in front of diplomatic offices in Iran and outside a +mosque in Bangladesh. +Yemen's president, Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, quickly issued an apology to the +United States, and ordered an investigation into incident. +""The Government of Yemen condemns any and all acts of violence against +diplomatic personnel and facilities,"" a statement from Yemen's government said. +""We strongly urge all those that would wish to incite others to violence to cease +immediately."" +But the violence in Yemen again raised questions about whether vulnerable Middle +East governments are willing or even able to protect American targets in their +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739593 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

It was a further measure of the depth of anger about the film insulting the +prophet Muhammad, which was reportedly made in California, although much +about its origins remains unknown. +President Obama spoke by phone with Libyan President Mohamed Yusuf al- +Magariaf late Wednesday, accepting condolences for the American deaths in +Benghazi and expressing appreciation for the cooperation between the United States +and the people and government of Libya in the wake of the attack, the White House +said. +In Brussels, meanwhile, Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi on Thursday gave his +strongest condemnation yet of the attack on the Cairo embassy. He had issued only +tepid statements on Wednesday, and his Muslim Brotherhood organization had +called for further protests in front of the diplomatic compound. +Morsi said he condemned the security breach ""in the clearest terms."" +""I assured Barack Obama that we will not permit any attacks"" on U.S. diplomatic +compounds across Egypt, said Morsi, who is in Belgium for a visit to the European +Union. +But Morsi also denounced the anti-Islamic film that appears to have sparked many +of the protests, adding that he had spoken to Obama about it. ""I called him to ask +him to put an end to such behavior,"" Morsi said, referring to the making of the film. +In her remarks, made in Washington during an appearance with the Moroccan +foreign minister, Clinton said the United States cannot and should not prevent +people from making films that express their opinions. Doing so, she emphasized, +would violate the country's staunch commitment to free and open speech. +""Now I know it is hard for some people to understand why the United States cannot +or does not just prevent these kinds of reprehensible videos from ever seeing the +light of day,"" Clinton said.

After the fall of dictator Moammar +Gadhafi last year, the State Department launched a mission to round up thousands of MANPADS that may +have been looted from military installations across the country. U.S. officials previously told ABC +News they were concerned the MANPADS could fall into the hands of terrorists, creating a threat to +commercial airliners. +READ: Nightmare in Libya: Thousands of Surface-to-Air Missiles Unaccounted For +Doherty said that he traveled throughout Libya chasing reports of the weapons and once they were found, +his team would destroy them on the spot by bashing them with hammers or repeatedly running them over +with their vehicles. When ABC News spoke to Doherty in late August, he was enjoying a short time off in +California before heading back to Libya just days ago. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739597 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

He's +described in glowing terms as a top-tier SEAL and better friend in the book ""The Red Circle,"" written by +Doherty's longtime friend and SEAL sniper school partner, Brandon Webb. +""Glen was a superb and respected operator, a true quiet professional,"" Webb told ABC News today. ""Don't +feel sorry for him, he wouldn't have it. He died serving with men he respected, protecting the freedoms we +enjoy as Americans and doing something he loved.

""We are all in pain and suffering."" +Ambassador Stevens and State Department information management officer Sean Smith were killed in the +first wave of attacks in Benghazi when the building they were in was set on fire around 10 p.m. local time +Tuesday, a senior administration official told reporters.

As we work to +secure our personnel and facilities, we have confirmed that one of our State Department officers +was killed. We are heartbroken by this terrible loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family +and those who have suffered in this attack. +This evening, I called Libyan President Magariaf to coordinate additional support to protect +Americans in Libya.

Among them were United States Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens +and Foreign Service Information Management Officer, Sean Smith.

Our hearts go out to all their families and +colleagues. +A 21 year veteran of the Foreign Service, Ambassador Stevens died last night from injuries he +sustained in the attack on our office in Benghazi. +I had the privilege of swearing in Chris for his post in Libya only a few months ago. He spoke +eloquently about his passion for service, for diplomacy and for the Libyan people. This +assignment was only the latest in his more than two decades of dedication to advancing closer +ties with the people of the Middle East and North Africa which began as a Peace Corps +Volunteer in Morocco. As the conflict in Libya unfolded, Chris was one of the first Americans +on the ground in Benghazi. He risked his own life to lend the Libyan people a helping hand to +build the foundation for a new, free nation. He spent every day since helping to finish the work +that he started. Chris was committed to advancing America's values and interests, even when +that meant putting himself in danger. +Sean Smith was a husband and a father of two, who joined the Department ten years ago.

Heavily armed militants +assaulted the compound and set fire to our buildings. American and Libyan security personnel +battled the attackers together. Four Americans were killed. They included Sean Smith, a Foreign +Service information management officer, and our Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens. We are +still making next of kin notifications for the other two individuals. +This is an attack that should shock the conscience of people of all faiths around the world. We +condemn in the strongest terms this senseless act of violence, and we send our prayers to the +families, friends, and colleagues of those we've lost. +All over the world, every day, America's diplomats and development experts risk their lives in +the service of our country and our values, because they believe that the United States must be a +force for peace and progress in the world, that these aspirations are worth striving and sacrificing +for. Alongside our men and women in uniform, they represent the best traditions of a bold and +generous nation. +In the lobby of this building, the State Department, the names of those vvho have fallen in the line +of duty are inscribed in marble.

And now, because of this +tragedy, we have new heroes to honor and more friends to mourn. +Chris Stevens fell in love with the Middle East as a young Peace Corps volunteer teaching +English in Morocco. He joined the Foreign Service, learned languages, won friends for America +in distant places, and made other people's hopes his own. +In the early days of the Libyan revolution, I asked Chris to be our envoy to the rebel opposition. +He arrived on a cargo ship in the port of Benghazi and began building our relationships with +Libya's revolutionaries. He risked his life to stop a tyrant, then gave his life trying to help build a +better Libya. The world needs more Chris Stevenses.

He spent 10 years as an information management officer +in the State Department, he was posted at The Hague, and was in Libya on a brief temporary +assignment. He was a husband to his wife Heather, with whom I spoke this morning. He was a +father to two young children, Samantha and Nathan. They will grow up being proud of the +service their father gave to our country, service that took him from Pretoria to Baghdad, and +finally to Benghazi. +The mission that drew Chris and Sean and their colleagues to Libya is both noble and necessary, +and we and the people of Libya honor their memory by carrying it forward. This is not easy. +Today, many Americans are asking -- indeed, I asked myself how could this happen? How +could this happen in a country we helped liberate, in a city we helped save from destruction? +This question reflects just how complicated and, at times, how confounding the world can be. +But we must be clear-eyed, even in our grief. This was an attack by a small and savage group — +not the people or Government of Libya. Everywhere Chris and his team went in Libya, in a +country scarred by war and tyranny, they were hailed as friends and partners. And when the +attack came yesterday, Libyans stood and fought to defend our post. Some were wounded. +Libyans carried Chris' body to the hospital, and they helped rescue and lead other Americans to +safety. And last night, when I spoke with the President of Libya, he strongly condemned the +violence and pledged every effort to protect our people and pursue those responsible. +The friendship between our countries, borne out of shared struggle, will not be another casualty +of this attack. A free and stable Libya is still in America's interest and security, and we will not +turn our back on that, nor will we rest until those responsible for these attacks are found and +brought to justice. We are working closely with the Libyan authorities to move swiftly and +surely. We are also working with partners around the world to safeguard other American +embassies, consulates, and citizens. +There will be more time later to reflect, but today, we have work to do. There is no higher +priority than protecting our men and women wherever they serve. We are working to determine +the precise motivations and methods of those who carried out this assault. Some have sought to +justify this vicious behavior, along with the protest that took place at our Embassy in Cairo +yesterday, as a response to inflammatory material posted on the intemet. America's commitment +to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear — there is +no justification for this, none. Violence like this is no way to honor religion or faith. And as long +as there are those who would take innocent life in the name of God, the world will never know a +true and lasting peace. +It is especially difficult that this happened on September 1 1th It's an anniversary that means a +great deal to all Americans.

Yesterday, I spoke about two: Ambassador Chris Stevens and Information +Management Officer Sean Smith. Today, we also recognize the two security personnel who died +helping protect their colleagues. Tyrone S. Woods and Glen A. Doherty were both decorated +military veterans who served our country with honor and distinction. Our thoughts, prayers, and +deepest gratitude are with their families and friends. Our embassies could not carry on our +critical work around the world without the service and sacrifice of brave people like Tyrone and +Glen. +Tyrone's friends and colleagues called him ""Rone,"" and they relied on his courage and skill, +honed over two decades as a Navy SEAL. In uniform, he served multiple tours in Iraq and +Afghanistan. Since 2010, he protected American diplomatic personnel in dangerous posts from +Central America to the Middle East. He had the hands of a healer as well as the arm of a warrior, +earning distinction as a registered nurse and certified paramedic. All our hearts go out to +Tyrone's wife Dorothy and his three sons, Tyrone Jr., Hunter, and Kai, who was born just a few +months ago. +We also grieve for Glen Doherty, called Bub, and his family: his father Bernard, his mother +Barbara, his brother Gregory, and his sister Kathleen. Glen was also a former Navy SEAL and an +experienced paramedic. And he put his life on the line many times, protecting Americans in Iraq, +Afghanistan, and other hotspots. In the end, he died the way he lived — with selfless honor and +unstinting valor. +We condemn the attack that took the lives of these heroes in the strongest terms, and we are +taking additional steps to safeguard American embassies, consulates, and citizens around the +world.

Well, let me welcome our friends and colleagues +from Morocco here to the Benjamin Franklin Room on the eighth floor of the State Department +for this very important first session of the U.S.-Morocco Strategic Dialogue. Before I begin to +address the significance of this Strategic Dialogue and the next step in our long relations with +Morocco, I want to say a few words about the events unfolding in the world today. +We are closely watching what is happening in Yemen and elsewhere, and we certainly hope and +expect that there will be steps taken to avoid violence and prevent the escalation of protests into +violence. +I also want to take a moment to address the video circulating on the Internet that has led to these +protests in a number of countries. Let me state very clearly and I hope it is obvious -- that the +United States Government had absolutely nothing to do with this video. We absolutely reject its +content and message. America's commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very +beginning of our nation. And as you know, we are home to people of all religions, many of +whom came to this country seeking the right to exercise their own religion, including, of course, +millions of Muslims. And we have the greatest respect for people of faith. +To us, to me personally, this video is disgusting and reprehensible. It appears to have a deeply +cynical purpose: to denigrate a great religion and to provoke rage. But as I said yesterday, there +is no justification, none at all, for responding to this video with violence. We condemn the +violence that has resulted in the strongest terms, and we greatly appreciate that many Muslims in +the United States and around the world have spoken out on this issue. +Violence, we believe, has no place in religion and is no way to honor religion. Islam, like other +religions, respects the fundamental dignity of human beings, and it is a violation of that +fundamental dignity to wage attacks on innocents. As long as there are those who are willing to +shed blood and take innocent life in the name of religion, the name of God, the world will never +know a true and lasting peace. It is especially wrong for violence to be directed against +diplomatic missions, These are places whose very purpose is peaceful: to promote better +understanding across countries and cultures. All governments have a responsibility to protect +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Now, I would +note that in today's world with today's technologies, that is impossible. But even if it were +possible, our country does have a long tradition of free expression which is enshrined in our +Constitution and our law, and we do not stop individual citizens from expressing their views no +matter how distasteful they may be. +There are, of course, different views around the world about the outer limits of free speech and +free expression, but there should be no debate about the simple proposition that violence in +response to speech is not acceptable. We all — whether we are leaders in government, leaders in +civil society or religious leaders — must draw the line at violence. And any responsible leader +should be standing up now and drawing that line. +I wanted to begin with this statement, because, as our Moroccan friends and all of you know, this +has been a difficult week at the State Department. I very much appreciate, Minister, the +condolences your government expressed to our Embassy in Rabat. And even though that tragedy +happened far away in Benghazi, we found a reminder of the deep bounds that connect Morocco +to the United States. It was in the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco that one of the Americans +we lost this week, Ambassador Chris Stevens, fell in love with the region when he served as a +Peace Corps volunteer there. That experience set him on a decades-long career of service. So in +the memory of fallen friends and colleagues, let us remind ourselves of the many ways in which +not just our governments but the people of our two nations have worked together to build a better +future. +In many ways, the United States looks to Morocco to be a leader and a model. His Majesty King +Mohammed deserves great credit for the work you've undertaken. In fact, after my visit to Rabat +earlier this year, I told my team: ""We need to start a Strategic Dialogue with Morocco."" No +country has been a friend of the United States longer than Morocco. You were the first nation to +recognize us back in 1777. But we're not satisfied with simply having a friendship that is +longstanding. We want one that is dynamic, growing, looking toward the future. So let me +highlight a few of the areas we should focus on today. +On political reform, we have all seen remarkable changes taking place across North Africa and +the Middle East. I commend Morocco and your government for your efforts to stay ahead of +these changes by holding free and fair elections, empowering the elected parliament, taking other +steps to ensure that the government reflects the will of the people. Today, our political working +group will discuss how the United States can continue to support your efforts to translate +commitments into actions. Because as we all know, democracy, real reform, require that people +themselves feel the changes in their everyday lives: the courts reformed, the goverment more +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

We know that child brides are less likely to get an education, more likely to face +life-threatening problems, particularly around child birth and delivery, which not only +shortchanges them but can even rob them and their communities of their lives and talents. So we +want to encourage the government and civil society to continue their important work together on +this issue. +With regard to the Western Sahara, the United States continues to support efforts to find a +peaceful, sustainable, mutually agreed-upon solution. U.S. policy toward the Western Sahara has +remained consistent for many years. We have made clear that Morocco's autonomy plan is +serious, realistic, and credible, and that it represents a potential approach that could satisfy the +aspirations of the people in the Western Sahara to run their own affairs in peace and dignity. We +continue to support the negotiations carried out by the United Nations and hope parties can work +toward resolution. +With respect to the economy, our second working group will focus on what more can be done to +deliver tangible economic benefits. Morocco's economy is relatively healthy, but you face the +same problem that is now endemic across the world — unemployment is still too high, especially +among young people. +That's why the United States is providing $1.5 million to support an effart to attract foreign +investors, foster local economic development, and combat corruption across the region. And I'm +pleased to announce that later this year we will hold a Morocco business development +conference here in Washington to connect businesses from both countries. +'Today, we should discuss ways to build on all of these efforts by increasing bilateral trade, a +particular goal of mine since so much trade from Morocco goes to Europe. I'd like to increase +the amount of trade coming to the United States, and also to improve economic integration +across North Africa, which could greatly benefit Morocco because of Morocco's stability and +Morocco's very strong economic foundation. The greater integration there is, the greater the +benefits for Moroccans. +Third, the attack in Benghazi this week reminds us that security remains a vital issue. Through +our work together on the Global Counterterrorism Task Force, the United States and Morocco +already share crucial information and best practices, and I thank Morocco for hosting a Global +Counterterrorism Task Force workshop on threats in the South Atlantic next month. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And so we are +partnering to help strengthen Morocco's criminal justice system and law enforcement. +There will be a lot to discuss in the meeting today. And let me add, the United States greatly +appreciates the constructive role Morocco is playing on the UN Security Council, especially your +support for the effort to end the violence and bloodshed in Syria and help to usher in a new +democratic future for that country. I commend Morocco for offering to host the next ministerial +meeting of the Friends of the Syrian People, and we look forward to continuing to work closely +together as close partners even after your term on the Security Council has ended. +Finally, our education and cultural ties are reason for much celebration. This year marks the 30th +anniversary of our official program to facilitate academic exchanges and other bonds between us. +There are more than 5,000 Moroccan alumni of these. programs. Two are with us today — Dr. +Benjciloun and Dr. Ouaouicha — and we thank them. But among all our work on this front from +preserving Morocco's historic sites to empowering youth, there's one area I particularly hope we +can focus on today and receive your advice and counsel — munely, interfaith dialogue. +In these tense and turbulent times, its more important than ever for people of different faiths to +exchange ideas, to build understanding, to promote religious tolerance. It's one of the great +challenges of the 21 century, and it's one that we must address together. +So we have a lot of work to do, Minister, but our friendship runs long and deep, and as the treaty +our nations signed in 1786 says. and I quote, ""Trusting in God, it will remain permanent."" I'm +confident that we will continue to solve problems and produce results that make our nations +stronger more peaceful, more secure, more prosperous, and also contribute to doing the same Rif +the world. +So again, let me welcome you, Minister.

This comes during sad and +difficult days for the State Department family, We lost four Americans, They were good and +brave men, They were committed to the cause of building a brighter future for the people of +Libya. And we condemn the violence in the strongest terms, the violence against our posts in +Benghazi, in Egypt, and now in Yemen. +The Libyan ambassador is with us tonight, and I want to take a moment to thank him for the +support that his government and the Libyan people have shown to the United States in this +tragedy, particularly the outpouring of feelings of grief and loss because of the killing of our +ambassador. +Ambassador Aujali, would you mind saying a few words? +AMBASSADOR AUJALI: [redacted} +SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you very much, Ambassador. I know that that was a very +personal loss for you, as it was for me. I'm the one who sent Chris to Benghazi during the +revolution to show support and be able to advise our government about what we could do to +bring freedom and democracy and opportunity to the people of Libya. +Religious freedom and religious tolerance are essential to the stability of any nation, any people. +Hatred and violence in the name of religion only poison the well. All people of faith and good +will know that the actions of a small and savage group in Benghazi do not honor religion or God +in any way. Nor do they speak for the more than one billion Muslims around the world, many of +whom have shown an outpouring of support during this time. +Unfortunately, however, over the last 24 hours, we have also seen violence spread elsewhere. +Some seek to justify this behavior as a response to inflammatory, despicable material posted on +the internet. As I said earlier today, the United States rejects both the content and the message of +that video. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of +others. At our meeting earlier today, my colleague, the foreign minister of Morocco, said that all +prophets should be respected because they are all symbols of our humanity, for all humanity, +But both of us were crystal clear in this paramount message: There is never any justification for +violent acts of this kind. And we look to leaders around the world to stand up and speak out +against violence, and to take steps to protect diplomatic missions from attack. +Think about it. When Christians are subject to insults to their faith, and that certainly happens, +we expect them not to resort to violence. When Hindus or Buddhists are subjected to insults to +their faiths and that also certainly happens, we expect them not to resort to violence. The same +goes for all faiths, including Islam. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +When all of us who are people of faith — and I am one — feel the pain of insults, of +misunderstanding, of denigration to what we cherish, we must expect ourselves and others not to +resort to violence. That is a universal standard and expectation, and it is everyone's obligation to +meet that, so that we make no differences, we expect no less of ourselves than we expect of +others. You cannot respond to offensive speech with violence without begetting more violence. +And I so strongly believe that the great religions of the world are stronger than any insults. They +have withstood offense for centuries. Refraining from violence, then, is not a sign of weakness in +one's faith; it is absolutely the opposite, a sign that one's faith is unshakable. +So tonight, we must come together and recommit ourselves to working toward a future marked +by understanding and acceptance rather than distrust, hatred, and fear. We can pledge that +whenever one person speaks out in ignorance and bigotry, ten voices will answer. They will +answer resoundingly against the offense and the insult, answering ignorance with enlightenment, +answering hatred with understanding, answering darkness with light; that if one person commits +a violent act in the name of religion, millions will stand up and condemn it out of strength. +In times like these, it can be easy to despair that some differences are irreconcilable, some +mountains too steep to climb; we will therefore never reach the level of understanding and +peacefulness that we seek, and which I believe the great religions of the world call us to pursue. +But that's not what I believe, and I don't think it's what you believe either here tonight. Part of +what makes our country so special is we keep trying. We keep working. We keep investing in +our future. We keep supporting the next generation, believing that young people can keep us +moving forward in a positive direction. +So tonight I think it's important that we talk not just about that better tomorrow that we all seek, +but also about some of the things — the real, practical, tangible things — that young people are +doing to help shape that better future. +Two years ago in this room, at our Eid reception, we launched a program called Generation +Change to lead a grassroots agenda of positive engagement with Muslim communities. And I +asked the young Muslim leaders in the audience that night to be our unofficial ambassadors, to +help build personal connections, seek out partners in other countries. And I can report to you +tonight they did not disappoint. In a few minutes, you're going to meet some of these young +leaders, each with a powerful story to tell. +The Generation Change network that started in this room now circles the globe. We are building +an international alliance of young people who want to drive change in their own communities. +They act as mentors, spark respectful debates, simply offer words of encouragement when +needed. But most importantly, they inspire others to keep expanding the circle of mutual +understanding and respect, one person at a time. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Our 2012 Hours Against Hate initiative encourages +young people to put themselves in another person's shoes through service projects. So far, young +people from all over the world have pledged thousands of volunteer hours to help people from a +different background, to see them as a fellow human being, not a stereotype, not a caricature, but +another real live person — people who don't look like you, live like you, pray like you, but with +whom we will share this planet. And therefore, we have work to do. +People of faith and conscience are called to be the leaders of tolerance. In my tradition, like all +traditions, we are expected to love one another. And together, we have to translate that into better +understanding and cooperation. I'm particularly pleased that the young people you will hear from +tonight are really setting an example, not only for young people elsewhere in the world but, +frankly, for us who are older as well. +Let me now call to the stage someone who has been a tremendous assistance to me in these +efforts. Farah Pandith is the Department's first Special Representative to Muslim Communities. +And from the beginning, she has made reaching out to young people and civil society her top +priority. Farah will introduce you to three young leaders who I am very proud of. +Remarks at the Transfer of Remains Ceremony to Honor Those Lost in Attacks in Benghazi, Libya +September 14, 2012 +SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you very much, Chaplain. Mr. President, Mr. Vice President, +Secretary Panetta, Ambassador Rice, Secretary Powell and Mrs. Powell, family members of the +four patriots and heroes we bring home, members of the State Department family, ladies and +gentlemen, today we bring home four Americans who gave their lives for our country and our +values. To the families of our fallen colleagues, I offer our most heartfelt condolences and +deepest gratitude. +Sean Smith joined the State Department after six years in the Air Force. He was respected as an +expert on technology by colleagues in Pretoria, Baghdad, Montreal, and The Hague. He enrolled +in correspondence courses at Penn State and had high hopes for the future. Sean leaves behind a +loving wife Heather, two young children, Samantha and Nathan, and scores of grieving family, +friends, and colleagues. And that's just in this world. Because online in the virtual worlds that +Sean helped create, he is also being mourned by countless competitors, collaborators, and garners +who shared his passion. +Tyrone Woods, known to most as Rone, spent two decades as a Navy SEAL, serving multiple +tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. Since 2010, he protected American diplomatic personnel in +dangerous posts from Central America to the Middle East. He had the hands of a healer as well +as the arms of a warrior, earning distinction as a registered nurse and certified paramedic.

Glen deployed to some of the +most dangerous places on Earth, including Iraq and Afghanistan, always putting his life on the +line to safeguard other Americans. Our thoughts and prayers are with Glen's father Bernard, his +mother Barbara, his brother Gregory, his sister Kathleen, and their grieving families, friends, and +colleagues. +I was honored to know Ambassador Chris Stevens. I want to thank his parents and siblings, who +are here today, for sharing Chris with us and with our country. What a wonderful gift you gave +us. Over his distinguished career in the Foreign Service, Chris won friends for the United States +in far-flung places. He made those people's hopes his own. During the revolution in Libya, he +risked his life to help protect the Libyan people from a tyrant, and he gave his life helping them +build a better cowl +People loved to work with Chris. And as he rose through the ranks, they loved to work for Chris. +He was known not only for his courage but for his smile — goofy but contagious — for his sense +of fun and that California cool. +In the days since the attack, so many Libyans — including the Ambassador from Libya to the +United States, who is with us today — have expressed their sorrow and solidarity. One young +woman, her head covered and her eyes haunted with sadness, held up a handwritten sign that said +""Thugs and killers don't represent Benghazi nor Islam."" The President of the Palestinian +Authority, who worked closely with Chris when he served in Jerusalem, sent me a letter +remembering his energy and integrity, and deploring — and I quote — ""an act of ugly terror."" +Many others from across the Middle East and North Africa have offered similar sentiments. +This has been a difficult week for the State Department and for our country. We've seen the +heavy assault on our post in Benghazi that took the lives of those brave men. We've seen rage +and violence directed at American embassies over an awful internet video that we had nothing to +do with. It is hard for the American people to make sense of that because. it is senseless, and it is +totally unacceptable. +The people of Egypt, Libya, Yemen, and Tunisia did not trade the tyranny of a dictator for the +tyranny of a mob. Reasonable people and responsible leaders in these countries need to do +everything they can to restore security and hold accountable those behind these violent acts. And +we will, under the President's leadership, keep taking steps to protect our personnel around the +world. +There will be more difficult days ahead, but it is important that we don't lose sight of the +fundamental fact-that America must keep leading the world. We owe it to those four men to +continue the long, hard work of diplomacy. I am enormously proud of the men and women of the +State Department.

And we will +do it together, protecting and helping one another, just like Sean, Tyrone, Glen, and Chris always +did.

The President of the United States. +Remarks With Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Patricia Espinosa After Their +Meeting +September 18, 2012 +SECRETARY CLINTON: Good afternoon, everyone. And it is such a pleasure for me to +welcome my friend and colleague, Secretary Espinosa, along with a very distinguished +delegation of officials from the Mexican Government for this continuation of consultation at the +highest levels of each of our governments. +Before I turn to the matters discussed today, let me give a brief update on the ongoing U.S. +response to the protests in the Middle East and elsewhere. I'm sure as you know already, we are +taking aggressive steps to protect our staffs in embassies and consulates worldwide. That +includes reviewing our security posture at every post and augmenting it where necessary. And +we are working closely with the Libyan Government in our efforts to bring to justice those who +murdered our four American colleagues in Benghazi. +The FBI is now in Tripoli to join the investigation with Libyan officials, and there is nothing +more important to us than ensuring the safety of our American representatives worldwide. At the +same time, as I have said to State Department employees, the incidents of the past week highlight +how important our work is. The United States must and will remain strongly engaged in the +world. Our men and women risk their lives in service to our country and our values, because they +know that the United States must be a force for peace and progress. That is worth striving and +sacrificing for, and nothing that happened last week changes this fundamental fact. +Now, turning to our friends and partners in Mexico, we are always pleased to have a chance to +discuss matters of mutual interest and concern between us. Mexico is one of our closest friends +as well as partner on dozens of critical issues. So we talk about every kind of issue you can +imagine, from education and healthcare to poverty alleviation to the environment. But today, we +focused on a top priority for us both — security. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And I want to offer +my personal appreciation to President Calderon and to Foreign Secretary Espinosa for their +leadership and commitment to this partnership and to all on both sides of the border in our +governments who have been deeply engaged and committed to it. The Merida Initiative +represents an unprecedented level of security cooperation between Mexico and the United States. +As our countries continue to deal with the serious challenge of transnational' criminal +organizations, including drug traffickers, illegal arms traffickers, money launderers, and violent +gangs that threaten people on both sides of the border, we well know there is no quick and easy +way to stop these criminals and bring them to justice. But nevertheless, during the past now +nearly four years, our countries have collaborated to an extraordinary and unprecedented degree. +We have brought together policy makers and experts from across our governments and societies +who have worked hand in hand to keep our people safe. And I think the habits of cooperation we +have built are among our most important achievements, and we will rely on them for a long time +to come. +Today, our delegations reviewed the gains we've made on key priorities, including improving +law enforcement coordination, reducing the demand for drugs, modernizing our border +infrastructure, strengthening the rule of law, and building more resilient and empowered +communities. We also discussed the lessons we've learned and the work that lies ahead in these +and other areas. which our joint statement will reflect. I want to underscore how important our +security relationship with Mexico is to the United States. +The Government of Mexico and the Mexican people have faced the threat posed by these +criminals with courage and resolve, and we remain committed to doing everything we can to +support Mexico as it continues to work to bring those criminals to justice. This is a transnational +problem, and it calls for a transnational solution, and the United States believes this is a matter of +shared responsibility. That was the first message I brought as Secretary of State when I came to +Mexico, and it continues to be the hallmark of our efforts together. Making sure our people are +safe and our neighbors are safe is of the utmost importance to us. +Now, our two countries share many other priorities, and one of them, empowering women and +girls, was also addressed today. We took the opportunity, the Foreign Secretary and I, to sign a +Memorandum of Understanding between our countries to work together to advance gender +equality, empower girls and women, promote their human rights, and enhance their security. +So again, Secretary Espinosa, let me thank you for years of work and effort, for our productive +conversations in many places around the world and again today, and for being such a valuable +colleague and partner. The United States deeply, deeply values our relationship with Mexico and +the ties of family and friendship that connect so many millions of our people. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

So thank you very much. +MS. NULAND: We'll take (inaudible), Margaret Brennan, CBS News. +QUESTION: Madam Secretary, thanks for your time. Are you any closer to finding who killed +Ambassador Chris Stevens?libya's President says this attack was planned for months. Are you +confident he's wrong and that security measures were appropriate? And will you leave justice to +the Libyans? +SECRETARY CLINTON: As I said at the outset, we are taking aggressive steps to protect our +people and our consulates and embassies around the world. We are reviewing our security +posture at every post and working with host govenunents to be sure they know what our security +needs are wherever necessary. We are also working closely with the Libyan Government to bring +the perpetrators to justice so that we can be assured that we have found who murdered our four +colleagues and under what circumstances. As I said, the FBI has joined the investigation inside +Libya, and we will not rest until the people who orchestrated this attack are found and punished. +It is also important to look at this strategically and understand what is going on across the region. +In a number of places where protests have turned violent, we are seeing the hand of extremists +who are trying to exploit people's inflamed passions for their own agendas. But overwhelmingly, +we have found that the people of Egypt, of Libya, of Yemen and Tunisia are not prepared to +trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of a mob. They want to turn their attention to the +future to provide better opportunities for themselves and their children, and they want a strong +partnership with the United States and the American people based on mutual interests and mutual +respect. +This is part of a larger debate that is going on inside these societies. In Libya, for example, in +their first free elections, moderates were successful at the polls. But look, there are extremists in +all of these societies and on the outside who are working to take advantage of broad outrage in +order to incite violence and specifically incite violence against Americans and American +facilities. +And as I have said to many of the leaders I have spoken to over the past week, these extremist +efforts are a threat to the people of the societies and the governments of those societies as well as +to the region and the United States. And I think it's important at this moment for leaders to put +themselves on the right side of this debate — to speak out clearly and unequivocally against +violence, whoever incites it or conducts it. +And in a struggle like this, there can he no doubt where the United States must stand. We support +those who are fighting for the same values and rights that we believe in — in democracy, in +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

But that said, let me assure you that our +security in Benghazi included a unit of host government security forces, as well as a local guard +force of the kind that we rely on in many places around the world. In addition to the security +outside the compound, we relied on a wall and a robust security presence inside the compound. +And with all of our missions overseas, in advance of September 11th, as is done every year we +did an evaluation on threat streams. And the Office of the Director of National Intelligence has +said we had no actionable intelligence that an attack on our post in Benghazi was planned or +imminent. +But let me state the obvious again. Our diplomats engage in dangerous work, and it's the nature +of diplomacy in fragile societies and conflict zones to be aware of the necessity for security but +to also continue the important diplomatic work that has to go on. There is risk inherent in what +we do and what these brave men and women representing the United States are up against every +single day, and we do our very best to limit that risk by ensuring that our security protocols +reflect the environments in which diplomats work and the threats that they are presented with. +Thank you. +Remarks With Indonesian Foreign Minister Raderi Mohammad Marty Miliaria +Natalegawa After Their Meeting +September 20, 2012 +SECRETARY CLINTON: Good afternoon. everyone. And it's such a pleasure, as always, to +welcome the Indonesian Foreign Minister, and I believe the largest delegation that has ever come +from Indonesia, for the purpose of our third meeting of the U.S.-Indonesia Joint Commission. +This commission is the result of a vision by our two presidents for a comprehensive partnership, +and the agreement to that effect was signed in 2010. Thanks to this partnership, the United States +and Indonesia are working more closely than ever on a range of issues from global security to +clean energy and climate to regional trade and commerce. +And today, Marty and I had the chance to take stock of where our teams have come in the time +of the last year, because we had our meeting in Bali a year ago. And I must say, I was very +impressed. We covered a great deal today, +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +But before I start, I'd like to say a few words about the protests in several countries around the +world. We have condemned in the strongest possible terms the violence that has erupted from +these protests. And as I have said, the video that sparked these protests is disgusting and +reprehensible, and the United States Government, of course, had absolutely nothing to do with it. +But there is no justification for violence, and I want to thank the Foreign Minister and his +government for speaking out against violence. We have to look to reasonable people and +responsible leaders everywhere to stand up to extremists who would seek to take advantage of +this moment to commit violent acts against embassies and their fellow countrymen. +Today's meetings have highlighted the strong foundation that we have built together. And one of +our most important concerns is promoting peace and stability in the Asia Pacific. Today, I'm +announcing that the Obama Administration has informed Congress of the potential sale of eight +AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopters to the Indonesian Government. This agreement will +strengthen our comprehensive partnership and help enhance security across the region. +On growth and prosperity, we are increasing our trade relationship that topped $26 billion last +year. Investments in transportation, energy, and infrastructure are creating jobs and supporting +economic growth in both countries. For example, the deal between Lion Air and Boeing alone +represents $21 billion in trade over the next decade. Indonesia's Government has announced half +a trillion dollars in infrastructure improvements, and we recently signed a memorandum of +understanding to make it easier for American companies to bid on these projects. +And yesterday, we signed an agreement for implementing our Millennium Challenge +Corporation Compact with Indonesia. Over the next five years, the United States will invest $600 +million in clean energy development, child health and nutrition programs, and efforts to help +make Indonesia's Government more transparent and open. +The United States is also looking forward to Indonesia hosting APEC in 2013, and we are +confident that Indonesia will come to this role with a commitment to promote greater economic +integration across the Asia Pacific. +Both the Foreign Minister and I believe that strong education is essential to compete in a modem +global economy. That's why the United States has expanded the Fulbright Program and +supported partnerships between dozens of American and Indonesian universities. Academic +exchanges between our countries are up and applications from Indonesian students to visit the +United States have increased by one third. USAID has recently expanded its basic education +program to provide $83 million for teacher training and literacy programs for young children. +And we're providing $20 in scholarship funding for Indonesian graduate students. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The Foreign Minister's +personal leadership has helped lay the groundwork for diplomacy between ASEAN and China as +it relates to the South China Sea. And we continue to support ASEAN's six-point principles, +which we believe will help reduce tensions and pave the way for a comprehensive code of +conduct for addressing disputes without threats, coercion, or use of force. +Finally, Indonesia and the United States have stood together on a range of global challenges, +from democratic reform in Burma to combating climate change, to working to end the violence +in Syria. We are also coordinating efforts to further develop south-south and triangular +cooperation, such as enhancing disaster preparedness in Burma and convening a conference on +women's empowerment. +We believe that as the second and third-largest democracies in the world, the United States and +Indonesia have a special responsibility to promote democracy and human rights. And for the last +four years, Indonesia has hosted the Bali Democracy Forum to promote peaceful, democratic +transitions through example and open dialogue. Last year, more than 80 countries attended. And +once again, the United States will be sending a high-level delegation. +So, Minister, thank you for everything. Thank you for the great partnership we've had between +us and between our countries. +MS. NULAND: We'll take two questions today,we'll start with Ros Jordan of Al Jazeera +English. +QUESTION: Thank you, Madam Secretary, Mr. Foreign Minister. Madam Secretary, my +question is about the ongoing investigation into last week's attack at the consulate in Benghazi. +You are meeting this afternoon with members of Congress to discuss the progress and the +concerns that they understandably have. First, there is the federal mandate to establish an +accountability review board. Have you done so? Who would you like to see chair it? Are there +certain questions that you desperately want to have answered in order to safeguard the safety of +Foreign Service Officers around the world? +And related to this, given the political instability and the successes of the past year and a half, are +you satisfied that in light of those political changes, enough was done to protect those working in +the Middle East and North Africa? And then finally — and this is perhaps going into the area of +rumor and speculation — but there is at least one report suggesting that Ambassador Stevens felt +that he was on a, quote, ""al-Qaida hit list."" Is this a scurrilous rumor? Is this gallows humor +when one is working in a period of difficulty and great challenge, or is there something more to +what he allegedly — and I stress that word — said? +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, first, let me say I'm looking forward to the opportunity to go +up to the Congress today. I will be briefing in two separate sessions, the House and the Senate, in +a classified setting, along with my interagency colleagues, as we continue to work together, and +with governments around the world, to ensure that our people and our facilities are safe. I will be +joined today by the Director of National Intelligence, General Clapper, by the Deputy Secretary +of Defense, Ash Carter, by the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Sandy Witmefeld, +along with experts from the FBI, the State Department, and elsewhere in the government. +Now, I anticipate that this briefing will cover our security posture before and during the events, +and the steps we have taken since to do everything we can with host governments to protect our +people and our embassies and consulates. The Director of National Intelligence will speak to the +intelligence issues surrounding these events in Libya. Deputy Secretary Carter will brief on the +superb support we have had from the U.S. military in the wake of these events, and we are at the +very early stages of an FBI investigation. The team from the FBI reached Libya earlier this week. +And I will advise Congress also that I am launching an accountability review board that will be +chaired by Ambassador Thomas Pickering. +I will also talk about the importance of the broader relationships with these countries in light of +the events of the past days. There are obviously very real challenges in these new democracies, +these fragile societies, but as I said last week, the vast majority of the people in these countries +did not throw off the tyranny of a dictator to trade it for the tyranny of a mob. And we are +concerned first and foremost with our own people and facilities, but we are concerned about the +internal security in these countries because ultimately, that puts at risk the men, women, and +children of these societies on a daily ongoing basis if actions are not taken to try to restore +security and civil order. +And let me just conclude by saying that there can be no doubt where the United States stands. +We continue to support those who are fighting for universal values — values that we see at work +in Indonesia — the third largest democracy in the world. We believe that these values of universal +rights, of justice and accountability, of democracy, are there for every person regardless of where +that person might live. So I will look forward to having a chance to talk with members of +Congress. +As to your final question, I have absolutely no information or reason to believe that there's any +basis for that. +QUESTION: Thank you. +MS.

If it's continuing happen, it's +obviously could give impact to the implementation of (inaudible) program in Indonesia. What is +the reason U.S. Government closed the Embassy and Consulate in Indonesia? What is your +expectation from Indonesia Government, for my Minister Marty Natalegawa? How Indonesia +Government respond to the closing of this Embassy and Consulate, it's starting today? Is U.S. - +Indonesia Government has Capability to protect U.S. Embassy and Consulate. So the (inaudible) +program implemented - could be implemented successfidly in Indonesia. Thank you +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, let me begin by saying how grateful we are for the excellent +cooperation we have received from the Government of Indonesia, and in particular, from the law +enforcement and security institutions in Indonesia. We are very grateful for not only the +cooperation and protection that has been provided to our facilities, but also to the strong +statements condemning violence from the President, the Foreign Minister, and others. +In consultation with the Government of Indonesia, we have temporarily, for tomorrow, closed +our facilities. We want to be sure that law enforcement in Indonesia has the ability to do what it +needs to do to make sure that there is no disruption of civil order and security. So we are +cooperating completely, and we're very grateful for the strong leadership provided by Indonesia. +FOREIGN MINIStER NATALEGAWA: Hello, (inaudible), if I may just also respond. +Precisely as the Secretary had said, the decision by the United States Government to close +temporarily its embassies and consulates tomorrow in Indonesia is a decision that's been made +based on communication and conversation between the authorities in Indonesia and the United +States as well. So in other words, it is an informed decision, a decision that is not intended to +show any unfriendly intent on the part of anyone, but it is what it is, and it's quite some - it's the +kind of step that governments actually carry out when situations requires it, even in our case. +Some of our embassies abroad, when the situation requires us to have a temporary closing of the +embassy, we do that as well. So it is something that is quite regular and something that is +actually coordinated as well. +But if I may just broaden the subject matter, I think as our President had said in the past, +Indonesian Government - the Indonesian people, even, obviously cannot and would not condone +the - any acts of violence against diplomatic premises, against diplomatic personnel, because +that is, truly - would be a challenge to the efficient and a proper conduct of relations among +states. So that's our point of departure. +At the same time, of course, beyond the immediate issue of protection of the embassies, we have +still ahead of us the challenge of how to prevent the kind of situations where we are now at in +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

We've had the opportunity to meet in Islamabad and other +settings, but I am very pleased that we would have this chance to exchange views on our bilateral +relationship as well as regional and global issues. +I want to begin by addressing the events of the day and the past week. Today, we've once again +seen protests in several cities in Pakistan. Unfortunately, some of those protests have turned +violent and, sadly, resulted in loss of life. I want to thank the Government of Pakistan for their +efforts to protect our Embassy in Islamabad and consulates in Lahore, Peshawar, and Karachi. +And I want to be clear, as I have said on numerous occasions, the violence we have seen cannot +be tolerated. There is no justification for violence. Of course, there is provocation, and we have +certainly made clear that we do not in any way support provocation We found the video that's at +the core of this series of events offensive, disgusting, reprehensible. +But that does not provide justification for violence, and therefore it is important for responsible +leaders, indeed responsible people everywhere, to stand up and speak out against violence and +particularly against those who would exploit this difficult moment to advance their own +extremist ideologies. +Yesterday afternoon when I briefed the Congress, I made it clear that keeping our people +everywhere in the world safe is our top priority. What happened in Benghazi was a terrorist +attack, and we will not rest until we have tracked down and brought to justice the terrorists who +murdered four Americans. And we are taking aggressive measures at all of our posts to protect +our staffs and their families along with locally employed people who provide so many important +contributions to the work of our missions. +The Foreign Minister and I will have a chance to cover a full range of subjects today, and it is no +secret that the past year and a half has been challenging for Pakistan and the United States. And +we still have work to do to get our bilateral relationship to the point where we would like it to be, +but ‘ve 1 +, +-)oth recognize that we can achieve rnol'e \x/hen we work together on a focused agenda.

I look forward to seeing President Zardari next week +at the UN General Assembly. At each meeting, we are working to identify the strategic goals we +share — and there are many — and the concrete actions we can each take to accomplish them. +Our number one shared priority remains pursuing our joint counterterrorism objectives to ensure +the security of American and Pakistani citizens alike. We face a common threat from a common +enemy, and we must confront terrorism and extremism together. Earlier this Month, I designated +the Haggani Network as a Foreign Terrorist Organization so we could make full use of every +available legal authority to end their deadly attacks. Pakistan's parliament has called for +expelling foreign fighters so that Pakistan's territory can be fully under control of the Pakistani +Government and cannot be used to launch attacks against other nations. +And the follow-through on this is challenging but necessary, and we look forward to working +with Pakistan as they continue to address these problems. We have both pledged to support a +secure, stable, and prosperous Afghanistan, which is vital for the security of the region. And I +want to thank Foreign Minister Khar for Pakistan's reopening of the NATO supply lines to allow +the movement of goods to Afghanistan. +We will discuss the successful first meeting of the Safe Passage Working Group in Islamabad +which brought together Afghan, Pakistani, and U.S. representatives to advance the peace process +in Afghanistan. The Pakistani Government's public call for insurgents to come forward and talk +with the Afghan Government was particularly important. We are ready to work together to build +on these steps, and we will continue OUT discussions through bilateral consultations and the U.S.- +Afghanistan-Pakistan Core Group. +Now, of course, our relationship goes far beyond our shared security concerns, and today we will +discuss the many other ways in which we work together, particularly to create economic +opportunity for Pakistanis. Foreign Minister Khar and I agree that we need to shift our economic +relationship front aid to trade and investment. We are working to help Pakistan attract more +private sector investment We hope to finalize a bilateral investment treaty soon. And we've +created a Pakistan private investment initiative to help more of Pakistan's small and medium +sized companies get access to capital. +Over the past few years, we have seen Pakistan's civilian government begin to put down stronger +roots. And if elections proceed as planned next year, it will mark the first time in Pakistan's +history that a civilian-led government has served its full term. The United States supports +Pakistan's economic development, and we have said many times that we want to see democracy +succeed in Pakistan. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

I am pleased to welcome the Foreign Minister from +Tunisia. I'm looking forward to our meeting. We obviously have a great deal to discuss, and I +want to thank the Foreign Minister and the Government of Tunisia for their efforts over the last +week to help secure our Embassy and the American Cooperative School of Tunis following the +violent assaults of last Friday. +We are monitoring events closely today. There is no higher priority for President ()barna and +myself than the safety of our people. We've taken a number of steps around the world to +augment security and to protect our personnel at diplomatic posts. And we are working closely +with host governments in this effort. +As I have said before and as is embodied in the Vienna Convention and other international +agreements, all governments have the duty, the solemn duty, to defend diplomatic missions. +They must be safe and protected places so that governments can exchange views and work on +many important issues, and leaders across the world must stand up and be counted in rejecting +violence and holding violent actors accountable. +We are working closely with the Government of Tunisia. They have assisted us in enhancing the +security of our facilities. We've also discussed with them the imperative of bringing to justice +those responsible for these violent attacks. And we have offered and will continue to look for +ways that we can assist the new Government of Tunisia in ensuring the rule of law throughout +their country, first and foremost for the people of Tunisia themselves. We look forward to +continuing to build our new partnership with the Tunisian Government and people. Our +relationship is built around the shared principles of all democracies — a commitment to +nonviolence, to tolerance, and inelusivity for all people, and to upholding the rule of law. +The Tunisian people have bravely put themselves on the road to democracy. They were the first +of the Arab revolutions and they have made important progress in a very short period of time. +They have worked too hard and sacrificed too much over too many years to see their progress +hijacked or derailed by extremists with their own agenda. And those extremists, not only in +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739610 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Imagine what it must have been like trying to escape the raging fire in the +Benghazi consulate or enduring hours of assault in the nearby annex waiting for relief from the Libyan government. +Diplomacy is a dangerous profession. You cannot exert influence by whispering in diplomatic code to your government +counterparts behind closed doors. You do not spread American values - especially in places where passions are high, +governments fragile and guns plentiful - by remote control from Washington. You have to get out from behind the walls +and engage with people. We know this can put us in harm's way; our people in the Benghazi consulate knew it. And they +did their jobs anyway. +That is because, hokey as it sounds, the people who represent us overseas really do believe they can make a difference. +They confront violent behavior and strong passions with American leadership, smart power and peaceful means. +We must make that work safer. The reasons for violence change with time and place but the human effects are the +same. For two years before we were blown up in Nairobi, Kenya, my team and I fought (""nagged"" was the word State +Department colleagues used) to have security threats and vulnerabilities addressed. We were too close to the street, an +easy target. Washington's assessment was that things were 0.1e, Anyway, I was told, there was no money for a more +secure embassy. What was Washington's assessment of our consulate in Benghazi? We may not like the image of +American diplomats working out of fortified boxes, but we cannot let them work in buildings that can be overrun by +attackers. This is a lesson our government still hasn't learned since 1979 in Tehran, +If the Benghazi tragedy traces the same journey we made from the rubble in Nairobi, heartfelt pronouncements will be +made; the dead will be given due homage and then they will be buried.

What kinds of technology, systems, training and +deployment do we need to get results through diplomacy in the 21st century? These are the difficult questions that will +remain unanswered, while diplomats disappear from public view once again.

What if President Obama and Mitt Romney exercised true leadership by +explaining to Americans, including the families and friends of those who died in Benghazi, what diplomacy is all about? +Why using words and deeds for peace is as important as using weapons. Why we value our diplomats and what we will +do to make their jobs easier, if we cannot guarantee their absolute security. +It is a stretch, I know. Far easier to add some more concrete, declare our responsibilities to diplomats complete and +move back to the fun stuff of making and debating policy, most of it domestic. The black wall will continue to +accumulate names, diplomats will continue to represent our country on the cheap and nothing much will change. Like +that scenario? If not, start demanding leadership.

Late in the day on September 14, 2012, Egyptian President Mohamad Morsi told senior +European diplomats that he is increasingly concerned the current anti-U.S. and anti-Western violence +spreading through Cairo and into the rest of Egypt may be part of an effort by his Salafist political +rivals to destabilize his government, which many of them believe is too moderate in its positions +regarding Islam, Israel, and the non-Muslim world. According to this source, Morsi, who is in +Brussels for meetings with the European Union (EU), was particularly concerned over a message from +Army commander General Abdel Fatah al-Sissi, that Islamist guerrillas, believed to be drawn +primarily from the Sawarki Bedouin tribe, had launched an attack on a base of the International +Peacekeeping Force (IPF) in the Sinai. The General reported that the 1500 United Nations troops at +the base, including some U.S. forces, were under heavy attack and casualty figures were not yet +known. Morsi stated that this fight was an example of radical anti-government forces and Salafist +Islamist dissidents taking advantage of the current situation to carry out attacks that demonstrate his +government is unable to protect Western personnel and facilities in Egypt. Morsi stated that the +success or failure of his regime is directly tied to his ability to establish a moderate Islamic state that +can work with western business interests. +2. (Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, the current wave of violence is related +to an ongoing struggle between Salafist and Sufi Muslims throughout Egypt. What makes it more +frustrating for Morsi is that much of the violence appears to be inspired by members of the Salafist al +Nour Party, the coalition partner of Morsi's Freedom and Justice Party (RIP) in the new Egyptian +Parliament.

Late on the evening of September 13, 2012, Mohammed Badie, the Supreme Guide of +the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood (MB), sent a message to Morsi warning that he and the Supreme +Guidance Council were concerned that the situation around the U.S. Embassy was getting out of +control and that, difficult as it might seem, he had to take tough measures against the demonstrators, +and protect the interests of the U.S. and other Western Governments. In a telephone discussion with +Saad al-Katany, the MB/Freedom and Justice Party (MB/KIP) Speaker of the lower house of +parliament, Morsi admitted that he had felt constrained from acting, given his past history of poor +personal relations with the leaders of al Nour. Al-Katany urged him to gain control of the situation.) +3. On September 14, Morsi also stated to an EU official that he had received extremely forceful +messages from both the U.S. State Department and the Office of the U.S. President, leaving no doubt +in his mind that the U.S. —Egyptian relations and more than $1billion in U.S. aid were at stake in this +matter. Morsi added that since much of this aid goes to the Egyptian Army, he and al-Katany agreed +that actions that put it in jeopardy would also damage the new Egyptian administration's current +good relationship with the Army. Accordingly, Morsi instructed the military and security forces to use +all necessary force short of lethal measures to protect U.S. and Western facilities. In a private +conversation, Morsi stated that he felt he is losing control of the political situation and fears that if the +current fighting results in deaths, either of demonstrators, U.S. diplomats, Egyptian security +personnel, or UN peacekeepers, the situation may spin out of control and his government could fall. +Al-Katany agreed, but said that taking no action would guarantee disaster. They agreed that when the +situation calms down they will have to deal with the al Nour party, which they fear will, in the future, +take advantage of circumstances to try to destabilize Morsi's administration. With this in mind, Morsi +ordered al-Sissi to direct the commanders of Military Intelligence (MI -Mukhabarat el-Khabeya) to +step up operations collecting information on the activities of the al Nour leadership, focusing on any +contacts with potentially violent Salafist dissidents. +4. (Source Comment: A separate sensitive source also noted that General al-Sissi is warning +Morsi about press reports that the person who made the controversial internet film at the heart of this +situation is an Egyptian Coptic Christian. The General cautioned that as this report gains wider +circulation, the government and the Army must prepare for violent attacks by Islamists against that +community, which makes up ten (10) percent of the Egyptian population.) +5. A separate sensitive source noted that for his part, al-Sissi is prepared to to have his troops +take harsh measures against any demonstrators who attack Western personnel and facilities. The +General is also concerned that the al Nour leaders are even more dangerous than Morsi realizes, and +he has ordered the MI to increase technical and physical surveillance of these individuals. In +addition, he stated in private that Morsi and al-Katany spoke with Libyan President Mohammed +Yussef el Ma.gariaf, and they had all agreed that military and security officials in Egypt and Libya will +cooperate in an effort to track links between the violence in Cairo and Benghazi. Al-Sissi has ordered +Special Forces units to step up patrols in the Egypt-Libya border region, while the MI will monitor +communications between dissidents; primarily Salafists, in both countries. According to this source +the General is convinced that these dissidents are seizing the opportunity presented by the current +unrest to move against the governments of Morsi and al-Magariaf. He also received permission from +Morsi to step up cooperation with his counterparts in the U.S. and Western Europe to deal with this +situation and al-Sissi believes al-Magariaf has given similar instructions to Libyan military and +security officials. +6.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +D +By Craig UngeIU +(Credit: AP/AI BehrmaniSalon) +According to a highly reliable source, as Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama prepare for the +first presidential debate Wednesday night, top Republican operatives are primed to unleash a new +two-pronged offensive that will attack Obama as weak on national security, and will be based, in part +on new intelligence information regarding the attacks in Libya that killed U.S. ambassador Chris +Stevens on September it. +The source, who has first-hand knowledge of private, high-level conversations in the Romney camp +that took place in Washington, DC last week, said that at various times the GOP strategists referred to +their new operation as the Jimmy Carter Strategy or the October Surprise. +He added that they planned to release what they hoped would be ""a bombshell"" that would make +Libya and Obamta's foreign policy a major issue in the campaign. ""My understanding is that they have +come up with evidence that the Obama administration had positive intelligence that there was going +to be a terrorist attack on the intelligence."" +The source described the Republicans as chortling with glee that the Obama administration +""definitely had inter about the attack before it happened. ""Intelligence can be graded in different +ways,"" he added, 'and sometimes A and B don't get connected. But [the Romney campaign] will try to +paint it to look like Obama had advance knowledge of the attack and is weak on terrorism."" +He said they were jubilant about their new strategy and said they intended to portray Obama as a +helpless, Jimmy Carter-like president and to equate the tragedy in Libya with President Carter's failed +attempt to rescue American hostages in Iran in 1980. ""They are so excited about it,"" he said ""Over +and over again they talked about how it would be just like Jimmy Carter's failed raid. They feel it is +going to give them a last-minute landslide in the election."" +The source, however, said he was dubious about the tactic. ""To me, it is indicative that they have lost +touch with a huge portion of the electorate,"" he said. +The source declined to reveal the names of the GOP operatives who were present But he said, ""These +were the top guys in the party. It was a private, unguarded planning conversation."" He further +described participants in the meeting as consisting of well-known names tied to the big Republican +super PACs and people who had access to high-level national security. intelligence. +""As usual, Karl Rove wasn't present,"" he said, ""but some were close to Rove."" +The source said that ""there was quite a bit more"" to the operation than simply revealing the +intelligence regarding Libya. He declined to discuss what he described as the second phase of the +operation. +However, already there is evidence that the first phase of the operation is underway. On Wednesday, +September 26, on Fox News, Karl Rove called Obarna's reaction to what happened in Libya +""inexplicable"" and added that Obama is ""more intent on campaigning than meeting his +responsibilities as commander-in-chief."" He went on to warn that Obama's policies in Libya +endangered the U.S. with regard to Iran, ""I am astonished,"" Rove said ""We are projecting weakness +when we need to be projecting strength."" +Similarly, former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, a one-time GOP presidential hopeful who +became known as the mayor of 9/11, followed Rove in criticizing Obama on the attack in Libya. ""This +is a deliberate attempt to cover up the truth, from an administration that claimed it wanted to be the +most transparent in history,"" he told Fox News. ""And it's the worst kind of cover-up: the kind of +cover-up that involves our national security. This is a cover-up that involves the slaughter of four +Americans."" +Giuliani added that the Obama White House wanted to dismiss the role played by al-Qaeda because it +seemed to diminish the triumph of having killed Osama bin Laden.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +GOP's October surprise? +They're calling it the ""Jimmy Carter Strategy"": Exploit +Libya attack to paint Obama as weak on terrorism +By Craig Unger +(Credit: AP/AI Behrman/Salon) +According to a highly reliable source, as Mitt Romney and President Barack Obama prepare for the +first presidential debate Wednesday night, top Republican operatives are primed to unleash a new +two-pronged offensive that will attack Obama as weak on national security, and will be based, in part, +on new intelligence information regarding the attacks in Libya that killed U.S. ambassador Chris +Stevens on September ii +The source, who has first-hand knowledge of private, high-level conversations in the Romney camp +that took place in Washington, DC last week, said that at various times the GOP strategists referred to +their new operation as the Jimmy Carter Strategy or the October Surprise. +He added that they planned to release what they hoped would be ""a bombshell"" that would make +Libya and Oba.ma's foreign policy a major issue in the campaign. ""My understanding is that they have +come up with evidence that the Obama administration had positive intelligence that there was going +to be a terrorist attack on the intelligence."" +The source described the Republicans as chortling with glee that the Obama administration +""definitely had inter about the attack before it happened. ""Intelligence can be graded in different +ways,"" he added, ""and sometimes A and B don't get connected. But [the Romney campaign] will try to +paint it to look like Obama had advance knowledge of the attack and is weak on terrorism."" +He said they were jubilant about their new strategy and said they intended to portray Obama as a +helpless, Jimmy Carter-like president and to equate the tragedy in Libya with President Carter's failed +attempt to rescue American hostages in Iran in 1980. ""They are so excited about it,"" he said ""Over +and over again they talked about how it would be just like Jimmy Carter's failed raid. They feel it is +going to give them a last-minute landslide in the election."" +The source, however, said he was dubious about the tactic. ""To me, it is indicative that they have lost +touch with a huge portion of the electorate,"" he said +The source declined to reveal the names of the GOP operatives who were present But he said, ""These +were the top guys in the party. It was a private, unguarded planning conversation."" He further +described participants in the meeting as consisting of well-known names tied to the big Republican +super PACs and people who had access to high-level national security intelligence. +""As usual, Karl Rove wasn't present,"" he said, ""but some were close to Rove."" +The source said that ""there was quite a bit more"" to the operation than simply revealing the +intelligence regarding Libya. He declined to discuss what he described as the second phase of the +operation. +However, already there is evidence that the first phase of the operation is underway. On Wednesday, +September 26, on Pox News, Karl Rove called Obama's reaction to what happened in Libya +xplicable"" and added that Obama is ""more intent on campaigning than meeting his +responsibilities as commander-in-chief"" He went on to warn that Obarna's policies in Libya +endangered the U.S. with regard to Iran. ""I am astonished,"" Rove said ""We are projecting weakness +when we need to be projecting strength."" +Similarly, former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani, a one-time GOP presidential hopeful who +became known as the mayor of 9/11, followed Rove in criticizing Obama on the attack in Libya.

""And it's the worst kind of cover-up: the kind of +cover-up that involves our national security.

""I think it's because they have this +narrative that they defeated al-Qaeda,"" he said. ""They never say the words 'Islamic fundamentalist +terrorism'. They want to wish it away.

Why can't the memory of U.S. Ambassador Chris +Stevens and his staff be consigned to the same sad-and-sealed file of Americans killed abroad +in dangerous line of duty? How has an episode that seemed at first to have been mishandled by +the Romney camp become an emblem of a feckless and deluded foreign policy? +The story-switching and stonewalling haven't helped. But let's start a little earlier. +The hour is 5 p.m., Sept. 11, Washington time, and the scene is an Oval Office meeting among +President °barna, the secretary of defense, the national security adviser and the chairman of +the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi has been under assault for +roughly 90 minutes. Some 30 U.S. citizens are at mortal risk. The whereabouts of Ambassador +Stevens are unknown. +What is uppermost on the minds of the president and his advisers? The safety of Americans, +no doubt. So what are they prepared to do about it? Here is The Wall Street Journal's account +of the meeting: +""There was no serious consideration at that hour of intervention with military force, officials +said. Doing so without Libya's permission could represent a violation of sovereignty and +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739633 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Yet the attack was far from over. After leaving the principal U.S. compound, the +Americans retreated to a second, supposedly secret facility, which soon came under deadly +mortar fire. Time to call in the troops? +""Some officials said the U.S. could also have sent aircraft to the scene as a 'show of force' to +scare off the attackers,"" the Journal reported, noting that there's a U.S. air base just 450 miles +away in Sicily. ""State Department officials dismissed the suggestions as unrealistic. 'They +would not have gotten there in two hours, four hours or six hours."" +The U.S. security detail only left Washington at 8 a.m. on Sept. 12, more than 10 hours after +the attacks began. A commercial jet liner can fly from D.C. to Benghazi in about the same +time. +All this is noted with the benefit of hindsight, and the administration deserves to be judged +accordingly. But it also deserves to be judged in light of what it knew prior to the attack, +including an attack on the mission in June and heightened threat warnings throughout the +summer. +So how did the administration do on that count? ""That the local security did so well back in +June probably gave us a false sense of security,"" an unnamed American official who has +served in Libya told the New York Times last week. +The logic here is akin to supposing that because the 1993 attack on the World Trade Center +failed to bring down the towers, nobody need have been concerned thereafter. But let's still +make allowances for the kind of bureaucratic ineptitude that knows neither administration nor +political party. +The more serious question is why the administration alighted on the idea that the attack wasn't +a terrorist act at all. Also, what did the White House think it had to gain by adopting the +jihadist narrative that a supposedly inflammatory video clip was at the root of the trouble? +Nobody can say. All the administration will acknowledge is that it has ""revised [its] initial +assessment to reflect new information that it was a deliberate and organized terrorist attack."" +That's from James Clapper, the director of national intelligence. It suggests that our +intelligence agencies are either much dumber than previously supposed (always a strong +possibility) or much more politicized (equally plausible). +No doubt the administration would now like to shift blame to Mr. Clapper. But what happened +in Benghazi was not a failure of intelligence. It was a failure of policy, stemming from a +flawed worldview and the political needs of an election season. +Let's review: +The U.S. ignores warnings of a parlous security situation in Benghazi. Nothing happens +because nobody is really paying attention, especially in an election year, and because Libya is +supposed to be a foreign-policy success. When something does happen, the administration's +concerns for the safety of Americans are subordinated to considerations of Libyan +""sovereignty"" and the need for ""permission.""

Every meeting started with condolences on Chris Stevens and his three +colleagues, and concern that Benghazi would permanently alter US Libyan relations. I used the fact of the Secretary's +meeting with President Magaref in NY last week and Deputy secretary Burns' Tripoli visit as the best evidence of US +determination to continue To build the relationship with this new democracy. In addition: +- FBI INVESTIGATION: With the PM, DFM and Judicial leaders, I placed heavy emphasis on the importance of Libyan +cooperation and transparency in the investigation. This was my primary focus; I stressed the point that Libya's +performance will no doubt color American views on Libya at a time when Libya will want to burnish its reputation. +- SECURITY: I stressed that social stability and economic growth will depend on a dramatic improvement in security. All +agreed without +hesitation. All said that Libya needs outside assistance, but when we +discussed details of how to move forward on the bilateral programs we already have underway, each was quick to +identify specific stumbling blocks on each Especially with the Acting FM, we also identified next steps. +- TRAINING: We made progress on 1208, CBW, and MANPADS training programs - details to follow front channel. We +will also follow up on judicial exchanges and forensic training. +- NEW GOVT FORMATION: Abushagur described the negotiation process as the single most difficult professional +challenge he has ever faced. He told us the government would be ready by October 3. Even though others warned us +he would miss that deadline due to difficulty in reconciling the competing demands of various parties and individuals, he +obviously made good on his Oct. 3 announcement undertaking. +- DDR: Abushagur said there are three main groups of militants to +reintegrate: part have jobs, part are heading back to university, and part will be offered vocational training. He said he +will create a new Ministry of Human Development to oversee DDR; it's unclear how this new ministry will relate to +numerous other GOL. efforts on this He expressed concern about the approximately 17,000 criminals released by +Qacihafi, some of whom joined militias. +- TRANSITIONAL JUSTICE: The political leaders and judges all pledged to strike a balance between respecting the rights +of detainees and holding human rights violators accountable. They acknowledged the profound limitations of their +justice system. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739635 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

As of October 5, 2012 Mohammed Yussef el Magariaf, the new interim President of Libya +told senior advisors that the abortive efforts to form a cabinet under new Prime Minister Mustafa +Abushagur represent the first step in the next phase of the struggle for control of the new Libyan +Government. According to a sensitive source Magariaf is concerned that Abushagur, supported by the +Muslim Brotherhood's (MB) Justice and Construction Party (jCP), as well as certain of the other +more traditional Islamist groups, is looking to establish day to day administrative control the new +government while defining Magariaf as a ceremonial Head of State. +2. According to this individual, the President, who is not affiliated with a particular party +holding seats in the General National Council (GNC), spoke with the new Prime Minister immediately +after Abushagur was elected by the GNC on September 12. At that time Magariaf advised him to +include in his government members of former Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril's National Forces +Alliance (NFA), Abushagar having only narrowly defeated Jibril in the GNC vote. At that time +Magariaf was not aware of the fact that Jibril had already demanded 9 cabinet seats for the NFA; +however, he did point out that even Jibril's more moderate followers were committed to the idea of a +modern Islamic state and would fit into the new cabinet . The President came away from this +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739643 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739643 +Date: 05/13/2015 +discussion with the impression that Abushagur and his supporters intend to marginalize Jibril and +the 39 Members of Parliament (MP) controlled by the NFA, concentrating instead on working with +the 120 independent MPs in the GNC, looking to establish a more conservative administration. This +individual added that Abushagur made it clear that while the President was free to choose his Vice +President and staff, the Prime Minister would choose the national cabinet, supported by the GNC. +3. (Source Comment: According to this individual, Magariaf is allowing the current crisis in +the Abushagur administration to play out without direct interference. He is convinced that the desire +of the Libyan people for peace and stability, which brought him to power, added to the need to +balance the regional and political rivalries throughout the country, will lead to the formation of a +cabinet that is acceptable to all parties. Magariaf also believes that these developments will eventually +leave him as the dominant figure in the government.) +4. In addition, this individual added that Magariaf is seized with the national security +situation, the ongoing effort to disarm militia units, and the investigation of the murder of the United +States Ambassador. All of these efforts are related to what he sees as his most important role, +rebuilding the confidence of the international business community in its ability to operate in Libya +safely and efficiently. To this end he does agree with Abushagur that it is important to replace the +cabinet of former Prime Minister Abdel Rahman el-Keib, particularly Minister of Oil Abdulrahman +Ben Yazza, whose connections to the regime of former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi, and the Italian +Oil firm ENI made him unacceptable to the JCP and other conservative parties. That said, this +individual notes that Magariaf was surprised and not pleased with the appointment to the ministry of +Mabrouk Issa Abu Harroura, another technical expert, who previously worked for Libya's Zueitina Oil +Company as well as in the oil sector abroad. Magariaf feels that Abu Harroura does not have the +standing among the foreign oil companies that Ben Yezza enjoyed, although he was more acceptable +to a number of the conservative members of the GNC. +5. Magariaf was pleased that the Prime Minister, after dramatic confrontations with MPs and +demonstrators who entered the GNC chamber, withdrew his cabinet nominations. The President +again advised Abushagur to name former Oil and Finance Minister Ali Tarhouni to the Oil Ministry +post; however, he fears that that Ali Tarhouni is seen as too close to Western governments to gain +acceptance in the GNC. Magariaf is concerned that, while the new cabinet Abushagur plans to put +forward on October 7 may contain some members of the NFA and other moderate groups, it will still +be dominated by the JCP and conservative elements, and will again fail to gain acceptance, leading to +a real government crisis. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739643 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

According to this individual Magariaf and his advisors knew in advance that more than loo +protesters planned to enter the GNC session on October 4, in an effort to prevent MPs from convening +to vote on the new cabinet. While Magariaf did not directly influence these protesters he did nothing +to warn or advise Abushagur on the developing situation In particular, the protestors objected to the +failure of the Prime Minister to name any minister from the Zawiya region. Although the +demonstrators eventually left the hall, a number of the independent MPs, who had said they would +support the new cabinet, were shaken by the incident and changed their positions. In the end, +according to this individual, Abushagur's efforts to rally their support failed, and he was forced to +withdraw all of the nominees, promising to submit a new list on October 7, one that would take into +account regional and political considerations. +7. In the opinion of a particularly sensitive source, the failure of Abushagur to name any NFA +ministers to the new cabinet will continue to complicate the matter. For his part Magariaf is +concerned over international perceptions regarding the nature of the new Libyan government. In this +regard, he fears that the Western press is too sharply focused on the fact that the NFA holds the +largest single bloc of votes in the GNC (38), missing the fact that the real power in the parliament lies +with the 120 independent deputies, who tend to be somewhat conservative on religious and social +matters, while focusing primarily on local political issues. Magariaf believes that the appointment of +All Tarhouni, or another liberal not associated with the NFA, would serve to reassure Western +business and government leaders while demonstrating political balance to the Libyan people. +Although he continues to make this point, the President has no indication that Abushagur will follow +his advice. He does expect Abushagur to again select a majority of cabinet ministers associated with +the MB and the JCP. +8. (Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, Magariaf will remain focused on the security +situation, particularly as he is having some success disarming the militias following the death of the U.S. +Ambassador.

According to this individual, the President, who is not affiliated with a particular party +holding seats in the General National Council (GNC), spoke with the new Prime Minister +immediately after Abushagur was elected by the GNC on September 12. At that time Magariaf +advised him to include in his government members of former Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril's +National Forces Alliance (NFA), Abushagar having only narrowly defeated Jibril in the GNC +vote. At that time Magariaf was not aware of the fact that Jibril had already demanded 9 cabinet +seats for the NFA; however, he did point out that even Jibril's more moderate followers were +committed to the idea of a modern Islamic state and would fit into the new cabinet.

This individual added that Abushagur made it +clear that while the President was free to choose his Vice President and staff, the Prime Minister +would choose the national cabinet supported by the GNC. +3. (Source Comment: According to this individual, Magariaf is allowing the current +crisis in the Abushagur administration to play out without direct interference. He is convinced +that the desire of the Libyan people for peace and stability, which brought him to power, added +to the need to balance the regional and political rivalries throughout the country, will lead to the +formation of a cabinet that is acceptable to all parties. Magariaf also believes that these +developments will eventually leave him as the dominant figure in the government) +4. In addition, this individual added that Magariaf is seized with the national security +situation, the ongoing effort to disarm militia units, and the investigation of the murder of the +United States Ambassador. All of these efforts are related to what he sees as his most important +role, rebuilding the confidence of the international business community in its ability to operate in +Libya safely and efficiently. To this end he does agree with Abushagur that it is important to +replace the cabinet of former Prime Minister Abdel Rahman el-Keib, particularly Minister of Oil +Abdulrahman Ben Yazza, whose connections to the regime of former dictator Muammar al +Qaddafi, and the Italian Oil firm ENI made him unacceptable to the JCP and other conservative +parties. That said, this individual notes that Magariaf was surprised and not pleased with the +appointment to the ministry of Mabrouk Issa Abu Harroura, another technical expert, who +previously worked for Libya's Zueitina Oil Company as well as in the oil sector abroad. +Magariaf feels that Abu Harroura does not have the standing among the foreign oil companies +that Ben Yezza enjoyed, although he was more acceptable to a number of the conservative +members of the GNC. +5.

Magariaf is concerned that, while the new cabinet +Abushagur plans to put forward on October 7 may contain some members of the NFA and other +moderate groups, it will still be dominated by the JCP and conservative elements, and will again +fail to gain acceptance, leading to a real government crisis. +6. According to this individual Magariaf and his advisors knew in advance that more +than 100 protesters planned to enter the GNC session on October 4, in an effort to prevent MPs +from convening to vote on the new cabinet. While Magariaf did not directly influence these +protesters he did nothing to warn or advise Abushagur on the developing situation. In particular, +the protestors objected to the failure of the Prime Minister to name any minister from the Zawiya +region. Although the demonstrators eventually left the hall, a number of the independent MPs, +who had said they would support the new cabinet, were shaken by the incident and changed their +positions. In the end, according to this individual, Abushagur's efforts to rally their support +failed, and he was forced to withdraw all of the nominees, promising to submit a new list on +October 7, one that would take into account regional and political considerations. +7. In the opinion of a particularly sensitive source, the failure of Abushagur to name any +NFA ministers to the new cabinet will continue to complicate the matter. For his part Magariaf +is concerned over international perceptions regarding the nature of the new Libyan government. +In this regard, he fears that the Western press is too sharply focused on the fact that the NFA +holds the largest single bloc of votes in the GNC (38), missing the fact that the real power in the +parliament lies with the 120 independent deputies, who tend to be somewhat conservative on +religious and social matters, while focusing primarily on local political issues. Magariaf believes +that the appointment of Ali Tarhouni, or another liberal not associated with the NFA, would +serve to reassure Western business and government leaders while demonstrating political balance +to the Libyan people. Although he continues to make this point, the President has no indication +that Abushagur will follow his advice. He does expect Abushagur to again select a majority of +cabinet ministers associated with the MB and the JCP. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739643 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

According to this individual Magariaf and his advisors knew in advance that more than loo +protesters planned to enter the GNC session on October 4, in an effort to prevent MPs from convening +to vote on the new cabinet. While Magariaf did not directly influence these protesters he did nothing +to warn or advise Abushagur on the developing situation. In particular, the protestors objected to the +failure of the Prime Minister to name any minister from the Zawiya region. Although the +demonstrators eventually left the hall, a number of the independent MPs, who had said they would +support the new cabinet, were shaken by the incident and changed their positions. In the end, +according to this individual, Abushagur's efforts to rally their support failed, and he was forced to +withdraw all of the nominees, promising to submit a new list on October 7, one that would take into +account regional and political considerations. +7. In the opinion of a particularly sensitive source, the failure of Abushagur to name any NFA +ministers to the new cabinet will continue to complicate the matter. For his part Magariaf is +concerned over international perceptions regarding the nature of the new Libyan government. In this +regard, he fears that the Western press is too sharply focused on the fact that the NFA holds the +largest single bloc of votes in the GNC (38), missing the fact that the real power in the parliament lies +with the 120 independent deputies, who tend to be somewhat conservative on religious and social +matters, while focusing primarily on local political issues. Magariaf believes that the appointment of +Ali Tarhouni, or another liberal not associated with the NFA, would serve to reassure Western +business and government leaders while demonstrating political balance to the Libyan people. +Although he continues to make this point, the President has no indication that Abushagur will follow +his advice.

As of October 5, 2012 Mohammed Yussef el Magariaf, the new interim President of +Libya told senior advisors that the abortive efforts to form a cabinet under new Prime Minister +Mustafa Abushagur represent the first step in the next phase of the struggle for control of the +new Libyan Government. According to a sensitive source Magariaf is concerned that +Abushagur, supported by the Muslim Brotherhood's (MB) Justice and Construction Party (JCP), +as well as certain of the other more traditional Islamist groups, is looking to establish day to day +administrative control the new government while defining Magariaf as a ceremonial Head of +State. +2. According to this individual, the President, who is not affiliated with a particular party +holding seats in the General National Council (GNC), spoke with the new Prime Minister +immediately after Abushagur was elected by the GNC on September 12. At that time Magariaf +advised him to include in his government members of former Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril's +National Forces Alliance (NFA), Abushagar having only narrowly defeated Jibril in the GNC +vote. At that time Magariaf was not aware of the fact that Jibril had already demanded 9 cabinet +seats for the NFA; however, he did point out that even Jibril's more moderate followers were +committed to the idea of a modern Islamic state and would fit into the new cabinet.

This individual added that Abushagur made it +clear that while the President was free to choose his Vice President and staff, the Prime Minister +would choose the national cabinet, supported by the GNC. +3. (Source Comment: According to this individual, Magariaf is allowing the current +crisis in the Abushagur administration to play out without direct interference. He is convinced +that the desire of the Libyan people for peace and stability, which brought him to power, added +to the need to balance the regional and political rivalries throughout the country, will lead to the +formation of a cabinet that is acceptable to all parties. Magariaf also believes that these +developments will eventually leave him as the dominant figure in the government.) +4. In addition, this individual added that Magariaf is seized with the national security +situation, the ongoing effort to disarm militia units, and the investigation of the murder of the +United States Ambassador. All of these efforts are related to what he sees as his most important +role, rebuilding the confidence of the international business community in its ability to operate in +Libya safely and efficiently. To this end he does agree with Abushagur that it is important to +replace the cabinet of former Prime Minister Abdel Rahman el-Keib, particularly Minister of Oil +Abdulrahman Ben Yazza, whose connections to the regime of former dictator Muammar al +Qaddafi, and the Italian Oil firm ENI made him unacceptable to the JCP and other conservative +parties. That said, this individual notes that Magariaf was surprised and not pleased with the +appointment to the ministry of Mabrouk Issa Abu Harroura, another technical expert, who +previously worked for Libya's Zueitina Oil Company as well as in the oil sector abroad. +Magariaf feels that Abu Harroura does not have the standing among the foreign oil companies +that Ben Yezza enjoyed, although he was more acceptable to a number of the conservative +members of the GNC. +5.

All of these efforts are related to what he sees as his most important role, +rebuilding the confidence of the international business community in its ability to operate in Libya +safely and efficiently. To this end he does agree with Abushagur that it is important to replace the +cabinet of former Prime Minister Abdel Rahman el-Keib, particularly Minister of Oil Abdulrahman +Ben Yazza, whose connections to the regime of former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi, and the Italian +Oil firm ENI made him unacceptable to the JCP and other conservative parties. That said, this +individual notes that Magariaf was surprised and not pleased with the appointment to the ministry of +Mabrouk Issa Abu Harroura, another technical expert, who previously worked for Libya's Zueitina Oil +Company as well as in the oil sector abroad. Magariaf feels that Abu Harroura does not have the +standing among the foreign oil companies that Ben Yezza enjoyed, although he was more acceptable +to a number of the conservative members of the GNC. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739651 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The President +again advised Abushagur to name former Oil and Finance Minister Ali Tarhouni to the Oil Ministry +post; however, he fears that that Ali Tarhouni is seen as too close to Western governments to gain +acceptance in the GNC. Magariaf is concerned that, while the new cabinet Abushagur plans to put +forward on October 7 may contain some members of the NFA and other moderate groups, it will still +be dominated by the JCP and conservative elements, and will again fail to gain acceptance, leading to +a real government crisis. +6. According to this individual Magariaf and his advisors knew in advance that more than 100 +protesters planned to enter the GNC session on October 4, in an effort to prevent MPs from convening +to vote on the new cabinet. While Magariaf did not directly influence these protesters he did nothing +to warn or advise Abushagur on the developing situation. In particular, the protestors objected to the +failure of the Prime Minister to name any minister from the Zawiya region. Although the +demonstrators eventually left the hall, a number of the independent MPs, who had said they would +support the new cabinet, were shaken by the incident and changed their positions. In the end, +according to this individual, Abushagur's efforts to rally their support failed, and he was forced to +withdraw all of the nominees, promising to submit a new list on October 7, one that would take into +account regional and political considerations. +7. In the opinion of a particularly sensitive source, the failure of Abushagur to name any NFA +ministers to the new cabinet will continue to complicate the matter. For his part Magariaf is +concerned over international perceptions regarding the nature of the new Libyan government. In this +regard, he fears that the Western press is too sharply focused on the fact that the NFA holds the +largest single bloc of votes in the GNC (38), missing the fact that the real power in the parliament lies +with the 120 independent deputies, who tend to be somewhat conservative on religious and social +matters, while focusing primarily on local political issues. Magariaf believes that the appointment of +Ali Tarhouni, or another liberal not associated with the NFA, would serve to reassure Western +business and government leaders while demonstrating political balance to the Libyan people. +Although he continues to make this point, the President has no indication that Abushagur will follow +his advice. He does expect Abushagur to again select a majority of cabinet ministers associated with +the MB and the JCP. +8. (Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, Magariaf will remain focused on the security +situation, particularly as he is having some success disarming the militias following the death of the U.S. +Ambassador.

These individuals add that they have been informed +by contacts in France and Italy that while they have been engaged in discussions with the LNC regarding possible +assistance, British diplomats and intelligence officers have maintained contact with members of the Qaddafi government +in an effort to protect the British position in the event the rebellion settles into a stalemate. These LNC officials believe +that the defection of Libyan Minister of Foreign Affairs Mouse Kousa to the United Kingdom was part of this effort. By the +same token they believe that British intelligence officers are in discussion with associates of Saif akislarn Qaddafi, +regarding future relations between the two countries if he takes over power from his father and implements reforms. +According to these individuals, senior LNC military personnel suspect that despite early indications that they would +provide clandestine military support to the rebels; neither the French nor the British government will provide the rebels +with enough equipment and training to defeat Qaddafi's forces. They also believe that the French, British, and other +European countries will be satisfied with a stalemate that leaves Libya divided into two rival entities. +(Source Comment: In the opinion of these individuals the LNC military leaders are considering the possibility of hiring +private secunty firms to help train and organize their forces. One of these individuals added that a number of the LNC +members believe that this solution may be best for the rebels; noting that if they accept clandestine aid from France +and/or Great Britain those two countries will be in a position to control the development of post Qaddafi Libya.) +LIBYA - INSURGENT ACTIVITY +(This information is based on sensitive reporting from individuals with direct access to the leadership ofthe +LNC.) +1. With little hope of achieving a quick military victory, the LNC is deploying a three part strategy; leveraging tribal +relationships, oil production and diplomatic pressure to get the better of Qaddafi.

The LNC +believes that the U.S will focus on restarting operations at the oil terminal in Tobruk. and an American envoy is expected +in Benghazi in the near future to facilitate this process. For its part, Qatar is advancing cash to the LNC to stimulate the +shipment of oil from eastern Libya. Some commodity traders stepped in recently (under contract from Qatar) to deliver +refined oil products to the insurgents. VITOL and the Swiss firm GLENCORE are operating in the rebel zone, but denied +any involvement in this shipment. +Elsewhere, these sources add that Mahmud Shammarn is overseeing the information and communications campaign for +the rebels against Qaddafi. Considered one of the LNC most important leaders, Sharnmam brings to the insurgency the +expertise he acquired while working for Voice of America, Foreign Policy, Newsweek and Al Jazeera. Shammam lived in +the U.S. for more than twenty years, and he is believed to have excellent connections in the U.S. Government. +3. Islamist activity: Libya's Islamist activists have maintained a low profile since the start of the insurgency in late +February; fearing that their activities would give credence to Qaddafi's claims that the rebeis are terrorists. As the LNC is +taking shape, they are now working to make their voice heard, and influence events within the LNC. Ali Sallabi, Salem Al +Shiki and Mohamed Al Guirtili, leading Islamic figures who had taken refuge in London (and are close to the Moslem +Brotherhood), drafted a 'national pact"" which looks like a road map for organizing the role of the Islamist movement in the +transition to a post — Qaddafi Libya. +Sallabi and his two associates draw their inspiration from the ""February 17 Movement which helped spark the uprising by +commemorating the massacre of Islamist prisoners at the Abu Salim prison in 1996. Prior to the current rebellion, +Mustapha Abdel Jalil, the President of the LNC and former Minister of Justice called for the release of reformed Islamists. +At present, the Islamists are handicapped by the fact they supported Sail's reform projects before the recent crisis. Saif +played a crucial part in getting the Islamists to sever ties between the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group's and al Qa'ida in the +Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). +EGYPT AND LIBYA: +A source with excellent access to the highest levels of the SUPREME COUNCIL OF THE ARMED FORCES (SCAF) +states that the Egyptian Military has turned its full attention to the crisis in Libya. Traditionally, Egypt is a strong influence +in the eastern Libyan region of Cyreriaica and is now taking advantage of the current crisis to regain that position. +Regardless of whether Muammar Qaddafi remains in power or not, the political division of Libya will give Egypt the +opportunity to fill the void in the east. A senior diplomatic source reported that since the early days of the Libyan crisis, the +Egyptian government has been quietly supporting Libyan opposition forces through training, weaponry, food, and medical +supplies, while attempting to organize a political structure in the east. In addition, Egyptian Special Operations troops are +serving with rebel forces in the eastern part of Libya. Senior Egyptian military officers stated privately that these troops +are responsible for many of the rebel's combat successes. +The following factors are the focus of Egypt's plans for a post-Qaddafi regime: +-Avoiding a refugee crisis. In the event Qaddafi's forces invade the east, Egypt is the most logical destination for +refugees from Libyan. Egypt has an interest in controlling any turmoil in Libya that could harm efforts to restart its +struggling economy. +-Labor market. Libya is an important market for unemployed Egyptian laborers. According to the Egyptian Labor +Ministry, around 1.5 million Egyptians reside and work in Libya, sending home an estimated $254 million in remittances +In the past few years, Qaddafi has placed heavy restrictions on foreign workers, and Egypt hopes that a new regime will +be more flexible, and open to receiving Egyptian workers. +-Radical Islamists. Traditionally, the eastern part of Libya has been a stronghold for radical Islamist groups, including +the al Qaida-linked Libyan Islamic Fighting Group While Qaddafi's regime has been successful in suppressing the +jihadist threat in Libya, the current situation opens the door for jihadist resurgence. Egypt has a growing interest in +keeping a close eye on jrhadist movements in eastern Libya. This is especially true as the Egyptian Military is already +concerned about Islamist militancy overflow from Gaza, after their forces were pulled back to Cairo during the uprising +against Mubarak. +-Oil and energy resources. Egypt has strong economic interests in the oil rich eastern part of Libya. Any opportunity to +gain direct or indirect access to these energy resources will increase Egypt's wealth. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739654 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

A former spokesman for the Libyan +Human Rights League (LHRL) in Europe, Ali Ziciane, is in talks with representatives of tribes in Sebha and Sirte in an +effort to persuade them to rally to the revolution and the LNC before fighting actually reaches their regions. Zidane is a +candidate to be the Minister of the Interior in the ""new Libya."" Among his close associates is Mohamed Allagui, president +of the LHRL, who is interested in the justice portfolio in the future, transition government +2. At the same time, All Tarhouni, the LNC's financial expert and possibly Finance Minister in post-Qaddafi Libya, is +struggling to get oil exports back on track in eastern Libya, with backing from the United States and Qatar. The LNC +believes that the U.S. will focus on restarting operations at the oil terminal in TGWU*, and an American envoy is expected +in Benghazi in the near future to facilitate this process. For its part, Qatar is advancing cash to the LNG to stimulate the +shipment of oil from eastern Libya. Some commodity traders stepped in recently (under contract from Qatar) to deliver +refined oil products to the insurgents. VITOL and the Swiss firm GLENCORE are operating in the rebel zone, but denied +any involvement in this shipment. +Elsewhere, these sources add that Materna:I Shannmarn is overseeing the information and communications campaign for +the rebels against Qaddafi. Considered one of the LNC most important leaders, Shammam brings to the insurgency the +expertise he acquired while working forVoice of America, Foreign Policy, Newsweek and Al Jazeera. Shammarri lived in +the U.S. for more than twenty years, and he is believed to have excellent connections in the U.S. Government. +3. Islamist activity: Libya's Islamist activists have maintained a low profile since the start of the insurgency in late +February; fearing that their activities would give credence to Qaddafi's claims that the rebels are terrorists. As the LNC is +taking shape, they are now working to make their voice heard, and influence events within the LNC, All Saliabi, Salem Al +Shiki and Mohamed Al Guirtili, leading Islamic figures who had taken refuge in London (and are close to the Moslem +Brotherhood), drafted a ""national pact"" which looks like a road map for organizing the role of the Islamist movement in the +transition to a post — Qaddafi Libya, +Sallabi and his two associates draw their inspiration from the ""February 17 Movement' which helped spark the uprising by +commemorating the massacre of Islamist prisoners at the Abu Salim prison in 1996. Prior to the current rebellion, +Mustapha Abdel Jail!, the President of the LNC and former Minister of Justice called for the release of reformed Islamists. +At present, the Islamists are handicapped by the fact they supported Saifs reform projects before the recent crisis. Saif +played a crucial part in getting the Islamists to sever ties between the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group's and al Qa'ida in the +Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). +EGYPT AND LIBYA: +A source with excellent access to the highest levels of the SUPREME COUNCIL OF THE ARMED FORCES (SCAF) +states that the Egyptian Military has turned its full attention to the crisis in Libya. Traditionally, Egypt is a strong influence +in the eastern Libyan region of Cyrenaica and is now taking advantage of the current crisis to regain that position. +Regardless of whether Muammar Qaddafi remains in power or not, the political division of Libya will give Egypt the +opportunity to fill the void in the east. A senior diplomatic source reported that since the early days of the Libyan crisis, the +Egyptian government has been quietly supporting Libyan opposition forces through training, weaponry, food, and medical +supplies, while attempting to organize a political structure in the east. In addition, Egyptian Special Operations troops are +serving with mitel forces in the eastern part of Libya. Senior Egyptian military officers stated privately that these troops +are responsible for many of the rebel's combat successes. +The following factors are the focus of Egypt's plans for a post-Qaddafi regime: +-Avoiding a refugee crisis. In the event Qaddaffs forces invade the east, Egypt is the most logical destination for +refugees from Libyan. Egypt has an interest in controlling any turmoil in Libya that could harm efforts to restart its +struggling economy. +-Labor market. Libya is an important market for unemployed Egyptian laborers. According to the Egyptian Labor +Ministry, around 1.5 million Egyptians reside and work in Libya, sending home an estimated $254 million in remittances. +In the past few years, Qaddafi has placed heavy restrictions on foreign workers, and Egypt hopes that a new regime will +be more flexible, and open to receiving Egyptian workers. +-Radical Islamists. Traditionally, the eastern part of Libya has been a stronghold for radical Islamist groups, including +the al Qaida-linked Libyan Islamic Fighting Group. While Qadclafi's regime has been successful in suppressing the +jihadist threat in Libya, the current situation opens the door for jihadist resurgence. Egypt has a growing interest in +keeping a close eye on jihadist movements in eastern Libya.

A former spokesman for the Libyan Human Rights League (LHRL) in Europe, Ali +Zidane, is in talks with representatives of tribes in Sebha and Sirte in an effort to persuade them +to rally to the revolution and the LNC before fighting actually reaches their regions Zidane is a +candidate to be the Minister of the Interior in the ""new Libya."" Among his close associates is +Mohamed Allagui, president of the LHRL, who is interested in the justice portfolio in the future, +transition government. +2. At the same time, Ali Tarhouni, the LNC's financial expert and possibly Finance Minister in +post-Qaddafi Libya, is struggling to get oil exports back on track in eastern Libya, with backing +from the United States and Qatar. The LNC believes that the U.S. will focus on restarting +operations at the oil terminal in Tobruk, and an American envoy is expected in Benghazi in the +near future to facilitate this process. For its part, Qatar is advancing cash to the LNC to stimulate +the shipment of oil from eastern Libya. Some commodity traders stepped in recently (under +contract from Qatar) to deliver refined oil products to the insurgents. VITOL and the Swiss firm +GLENCORE are operating in the rebel zone, but denied any involvement in this shipment. +Elsewhere, these sources add that Mahmud Shammam is overseeing the information and +communications campaign for the rebels against Qaddafi. Considered one of the LNC most +important leaders, Shammam brings to the insurgency the expertise he acquired while working +for Voice of America, Foreign Policy, Newsweek and Al Jazeera. Shammam lived in the U.S. for +more than twenty years, and he is believed to have excellent connections in the U.S. +Government. +3.Islamist activity: Libya's Islamist activists have maintained a low profile since the start of the +insurgency in late February; fearing that their activities would give credence to Qaddafi 's claims +that the rebels are terrorists. As the LNC is taking shape, they are now working to make their +voice heard, and influence events within the LNC. Ali Sallabi, Salem Al Shiki and Mohamed Al +Guirtili, leading Islamic figures who had taken refuge in London (and are close to the Moslem +Brotherhood), drafted a ""national pact"" which looks like a road map for organizing the role of +the Islamist movement in the transition to a post — Qaddafi Libya. +Sallabi and his two associates draw their inspiration from the ""February 17 Movement"" which +helped spark the uprising by commemorating the massacre of Islamist prisoners at the Abu Salim +prison in 1996. Prior to the current rebellion, Mustapha Abdel Jalil, the President of the LNC and +former Minister of Justice called for the release of reformed Islamists. At present, the Islamists +are handicapped by the fact they supported Sair s reform projects before the recent crisis. Saif +played a crucial part in getting the Islamists to sever ties between the Libyan Islamic Fighting +Group's and al Qa'ida in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM). +EGYPT AND LIBYA: +A source with excellent access to the highest levels of the SUPREME COUNCIL OF THE +ARMED FORCES (SCAF) states that the Egyptian Military has turned its full attention to the +crisis in Libya.

Regardless of +whether Muammar Qaddafi remains in power or not, the political division of Libya will give +Egypt the opportunity to fill the void in the east A senior diplomatic source reported that since +the early days of the Libyan crisis, the Egyptian government has been quietly supporting Libyan +opposition forces through training, weaponry, food, and medical supplies, while attempting to +organize a political structure in the east. In addition, Egyptian Special Operations troops are +serving with rebel forces in the eastern part of Libya Senior Egyptian military officers stated +privately that these troops are responsible for many of the rebel's combat successes. +The following factors are the focus of Egypt's plans for a post-Qaddafi regime: +-Avoiding a refugee crisis. In the event Qaddafes forces invade the east, Egypt is the most +logical destination for refugees from Libyan. Egypt has an interest in controlling any turmoil in +Libya that could harm efforts to restart its struggling economy. +-Labor market. Libya is an important market for unemployed Egyptian laborers. According to +the Egyptian Labor Ministry, around 1.5 million Egyptians reside and work in Libya, sending +home an estimated $254 million in remittances. In the past few years, Qaddafi has placed heavy +restrictions on foreign workers, and Egypt hopes that a new regime will be more flexible, and +open to receiving Egyptian workers. +-Radical hlarnists. Traditionally, the eastern part of Libya has been a stronghold for radical +Islamist groups, including the al Qaida-linked Libyan Islamic Fighting Group. While Qaddafi 's +regime has been successful in suppressing the jihadist threat in Libya, the current situation opens +the door for jihadist resurgence. Egypt has a growing interest in keeping a close eye on jihadist +movements in eastern Libya. This is especially true as the Egyptian Military is already +concerned about Islamist militancy overflow from Gaza, after their forces were pulled back to +Cairo during the uprising against Mubarak. +-Oil and energy resources. Egypt has strong economic interests in the oil rich eastern part of +Libya. Any opportunity to gain direct or indirect access to these energy resources will increase +Egypt's wealth. +-Regional power. The Egypt's military-led government is looking to reestablish their country's +role in the Arab world. So far, Egypt has fostered discussions in the Palestinian territories +between Fatah and flamas, while reaching out to Syria and Saudi Arabia on the issue of Iran +(Source Comment: According to a sensitive diplomatic source, the current Egyptian diplomatic +strategy is to enhance its stature by defending the Libyan people against Qaddafi 's regime, while +at the same time, distancing itself from any military intervention led by the region's former +colonial powers in Europe.) +It should be noted that, in the opinion of knowledgeable sources, Egypt cannot count on the +support of every Arab. power in the region.

The +envoy's delegation is currently doing a phased checkout (paying the hotel bills, moving some comms to the boat, +etc). He will monitor the situation to see if it deteriorates further, but no decision has been made on departure. He will +wait 2-3 more hours, then revisit the decision on departure. +He received reports of shelling last night in Ajdabiyah as well as snipers shooting people in the city. AFRICOM +reported Qadhafi's forces took the eastern and western gates of Ajdabiyah, with 5 vehicles at the eastern gate and 50 at +the western gate. More Qadhafi forces are heading to Ajdabiyah from Brega. +The Brits report Qadhafi forces are moving from Sirte to Brega, which they interpret as preparation for another +assault on Ajdabiyah today. +He plans to discuss the situation further with the Brits, Turks, and the TNC to see if this is an irreversible +situation. Departure would send a significant political signal, and would be interpreted as the U.S. losing confidence in +the TNC. Initial message to the TNC would frame the departure as due to security grounds and as a temporary measure +only. +Polaschik said she would discuss these developments with Amb. Cretz. +If the group departs, the contract for the boat stipulates they return to Greece. One scenario could be the group +stages elsewhere for a few days. +Ops will continue to monitor the situation. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739666 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The TNC welcomed his strong +statements of support, and US flag-waving Libyans cheered him wherever he went. The INC praised the +introduction of US Predator aircraft and asked that the US jam Libyan television broadcasting, The NC's +finance minister told him that his top ptiotities are to obtain a line of credit to meet basic needs, and to find a +way under the sanctions to allow trade with the liberated parts of Libya. He was impressed by the civilian +leadership but came away with serious doubts about the military's leadership, organization, and capabilities. He +was heartened to hear that the MC plans to shake up the military leadership and appoint a minister of defense-- +equivalent as early as next week. In a press conference, he advocated the use of more effective US strike +aircraft in the NATO missions and US facilitation of 3""I party arms transfers to the rebels; be stopped short of +endorsing the introduction of US military advisers, saying that role could be filled by others. He was clearly +moved by the plight of the people of Misrata and visited a hospital where he met a number of patients who were +severely wounded in the fighting there. The Human Rights Watch representative in Benghazi and a INC +member from Misrata briefed him on the situation there. +Consular issue: Conoff received the deceased Amcies personal effects from the IOM representative in Benghazi +and submitted them to the UK delegation in Benghazi in order to be flown out with the body.

I had fun covering you in your campaigns. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah, yeah. +QUESTION: And so I would love to do it even though I know very little about foreign policy and State — (laughter). I thought, +okay, this will be good for — this will be a good personality profile.

I mean, you just about killed me over the last (inaudible) — (laughter). I've got nothing. I've got nothing +except gained five pounds. Anyway, I don't know how you do it. So and then I thought, for a graphic for this story, all we need to +do is show the countries you visited, we can put that in one color on a map of the globe. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah, yeah. +QUESTION: And then if we colored in every country you've talked to or person you've touched, you've been all over the — you've +talked to like almost every country. +SECRETARY CLINTON: I think that's probably right. +QUESTION: In the last five weeks. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes. +QUESTION: I mean, it's been unbelievable. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah, it's been pretty jam-packed. +QUESTION: It is. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Starting with August, coming all the way to mid-October. +QUESTION: Exactly. So I thought this story was going to be kind of your easy glide-out. It's turned out to be much — +SECRETARY CLINTON: I don't think there is such a thing. I think in today's world, there is nothing easy or potentially gliding for +this job. There is just too much going on, and you know everything that's going on because we are hyper-connected. So there's no +doubt in my mind I will work to the last minute before I leave the building. +QUESTION: Has this, though — since I'm focused on this last 4-5 week period — has it been your most challenging part of your +tenure, or not? +SECRETARY CLINTON: It's been among the most challenging. There's no doubt about that. And it's been challenging on many +levels. Of course, the terrible events in Benghazi, but also in other parts of the Middle East and North Africa that didn't get as much +attention because, thankfully, no one was killed or injured. But we've had to keep a close watch on a lot of different places. We've +spent — I've spent time, as you know, in the Far East, in China and Vladivostok, and working on trying to manage what are always +complicated relationships, but made more so because of changes in leadership and challenges like who owns what rock where, +QUESTION: Yeah, yeah. +SECRETARY CLINTON; And working hard with the ASEAN nations to support their efforts for peaceful resolution of their +disputes.

He was my +counterpart in the Strategic and Economic Dialogue, and he was kidding me because he's retiring. +QUESTION: Are you sure he was kidding you? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I think so. That's my interpretation. He's retiring and he's probably at least ten years older than I +am. And he's saying to me, ""Why are you retiring? You're so young!"" [said, ""Boy, I'd travel a thousand miles to anywhere to be +told I was so young."" (Laughter.) +QUESTION: Okay. +SECRETARY CLINTON!: But it was more along the lines of, he will be leaving with the change in leadership in China, and I will +be voluntarily leaving, as I announced a year ago. +QUESTION: Yeah, yeah, yeah, more on that later. +Okay, so then, the next day, you have Xi cancel on you. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah. I'm not -- +QUESTION: Now, he cancelled on others, too. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Right. +QUESTION: But you were told — were you told it was the back injury? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah. But that — we were told the night before, and I took it at face value, really, because from our +perspective, I had a very good set of discussions with him both here in Washington and in my previous trip to Beijing. And as you +know, he was unable to keep his schedule for ten days. +QUESTION: Right, he'd not been seen in public, exactly. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah, so I didn't really think anything other than what I was told. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739674 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Okay, okay. +SECRETARY CLINTON: I mean, I didn't go specifically to see him. I went to continue our dialogue. +QUESTION: Did they get a little ticked off that we reported that it was a back injury, since they like to keep things so close to the +vest? +SECRETARY CLINTON: I don't — I don't know that. +QUESTION: Okay. And then at your press conference, I sat in the front row right in front of you because I was a pool reporter. +PARTICIPANT: Just like this. (Laughter.) +QUESTION: Yes, you know me. I like to be very touchy-feely. If I could've touched you, I would. +Anyway, so I sat there, and you as a politician came through to me loud and clear. You took control of that press conference, okay. I +mean, you said your little pleasantries, he said his pleasantries, and then you took charge. And it wasn't just about the South China +Seas. You hit all the things, Syria, Iran, not — and all the others. North Korea. +So then he was on his heels. And he's like — he was wanting to get in. So tell me: What was your thinking? Was it purposeful? Was +that your strategy going in? I'd like to — I want to describe that, because to me, you clearly had the political savvy over your +counterpart. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, we have very different systems. He's an incredibly accomplished diplomat, and as you rightly +point out, we both made our points. And I -- +QUESTION: He did make his points, but only after he was on his heels. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, that's your interpretation. +QUESTION: Yeah, yeah, yeah. +SECRETARY CLINTON: I had a very clear understanding of what I needed to say because there were all these issues that we were +talking about. And they are complicated, challenging issues. So I wanted to be sure that I put it out there, and I didn't want to say +anything other than what my assessment was at the time. Some people say, ""Well, you're in a foreign country, you shouldn't do this,"" +or whatever. +QUESTION: Yeah, exactly. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Now, I mean, I think we're living in a world where everybody knows what you say everywhere. +QUESTION: Yeah, yeah, yeah. +SECRETARY CLINTON: And I believe you have to say the same thing, you have to be consistent, repetitive, make the case +knowing full well that there's a resistance on the part of China and Russia to be more constructive in the Security Council. But insofar +as I could break through in their mass media as well as the international mass media, I was going to make that effort. +QUESTION: Which goes to this point which I was going to get to a little bit later about — one way you've tried to change, I think, +the Secretary of State — you've changed the terms of what it means, is this public diplomacy. You are knowing you're reaching a +different audience. You're not just playing right there at that press conference. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Right. A hundred percent right, Monica. I mean, I believe I am the chief public diplomat of the State +Department, and as well as the chief diplomat. But there's the public role to it, which is increasingly important, because you can't just +go somewhere, have your meeting behind closed doors, do a controlled readout, and go on to the next capital. Because in every +society now, you have to recognize there is a public audience as well as an official audience. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739674 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +So I am conscious of that from the very first trip I made in early February 2009. I've been trying to talk about America's values and +our interests and our security everywhere I can. +QUESTION: Is that in pant — did you have a vision that you also have to remake America's brand? +SECRETARY CLINTON: I think we — I think our brand was battered for a lot of reasons. We came into office in the midst of the +economic crisis, which was very dangerous, and I thought that — and still do that confidence is a commodity, and we had to show +confidence. We had to be making smart decisions. We had to reassure leaders and markets and people, and that was part of my job +on that first trip that / made and every trip since. +I was in Hong Kong when the debate over the debt was going on, and I had all of these very wealthy, distinguished, high-ranking +people from Hong Kong lining up to say, ""What's going to happen in America? What are they doing over there?"" And I said, ""Oh, +don't worry about it. We will get to a decision."" Because! had to be, at that moment, displaying the kind of confidence that our +country has, and our ability to make decisions, even hard decisions, in order to keep leading the world economically and politically, +and I believe that, +QUESTION: Okay. Let me then jump — you came — well, of course, there's the campaign. On September 6th, you watch your +husband at the convention. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Right. +QUESTION: Okay. What did you feel at that moment? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh, I was thrilled. It was so odd for me not to be there. I've been at every convention for decades, and +there I was in East — +QUESTION: Did you miss it? +SECRETARY CLINTON: — in Timor-Lege. +QUESTION: Yeah. Yeah. +SECRETARY CLINTON: I missed a lot of what goes with conventions seeing people from all over the country, having that sense +of purpose that a convention is supposed to give you to go out in the election and work your heart out for your candidate. But on the +other hand, I also believed and knew that what I was doing was very important for my country, So I certainly didn't miss +QUESTION: And did you hear you were a big topic of conversation there about whether Hillary — +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes, well — +QUESTION: --2016? +SECRETARY CLINTON: That seems to be a topic of conversation for a lot of people, which is — +QUESTION: Everywhere, okay. +SECRETARY CLINTON: -- which is fine. +QUESTION: Okay. +SECRETARY CLINTON: But it was thanks to the hard work of Philippe and others that we were able to see in nearly real time. I +mean, we had to wait till it was recorded, because I had a schedule that I had to keep, but then we were able to watch the whole +speech. It was great. +QUESTION: Yeah, Okay. Now, you came back home September 1 Ph. So let's talk about how you faced that day, just a couple key +moments, because I don't want to relive the whole thing. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Right. +QUESTION: But what were the key moments to you? Was it when you first were told the Ambassador's missing? Was it when you +found out he was actually — they had found him? +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739674 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +SECRETARY CLINTON: No. It predated that, because I take September 116' very seriously. I was a senator from New York on +September I 1th. +QUESTION: Right. And I lived in New York on September 1 Ph at the time. +SECRETARY CLINTON: And it was a searing, painful experience in every way, and so every September I I'm on hyper alert +for what's going on around the world. And we always have discussions in our security — among our security experts okay, +September I le is coming up. Because we pick up intelligence, we pick up chatter that people might want to do something somewhere +in the world. So everybody is watching. That's but we had a very strong set of standards that we've tried to follow around the +world. +And then simultaneously, we had this video coming out, which we were getting lots of feedback from our posts that this was a +problem, that people were reacting to it So there was a lot swirling around. And clearly, when we started hearing about what was +happening in Cairn, what was happening in Tunisia, what as happening in Benghazi and other places — because there were +demonstrations going on in many places and they were being to some extent, hijacked by extremists with other agendas. +But then when we were alerted to what was going on in Benghazi, we were all just totally focused on trying to find out what we could +under quite difficult circumstances, and we're still trying to get to the bottom of what happened when. But that day, it was all +consuming. We were all just as active as we could given the distance, trying to manage everything that was happening, and be +responsive in real time. And of course, it was primarily the duty of the security experts who have those responsibilities, but I was here +and others were here trying to sort through all the information as it was coming in. +QUESTION: Do you — today the front page of the Post says this is now going to mar your — what had been your great record at +State. I mean, are you ultimately, Hillary, going to have to take responsibility for this'? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh, I take responsibility. That's not even — that's not a question. I take responsibility. I'm the +Secretary of State. I have 60,000-plus employees around the world, and this is like a big family. I mean, these Foreign Service and +Civil Service officers, many of whom have worked with each other, they know each other, I have — I'm working with people today +that I first met when I was First Lady, and they were a young diplomat somewhere that I showed up. I sent Chris Stevens to Benghazi +in the height of the Libyan conflict. +QUESTION: Yeah, yeah. +SECRETARY CLINTON: And he was eager to go, and he was very effective, and then I recommended him to be our ambassador, +and I had the highest regard for him. +QUESTION: Gosh, that must make it that much — +SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh, it's painful, Monica. It's absolutely painful, because it's not °tat a faceless person. +QUESTION: Yeah, exactly. +SECRETARY CLINTON: It's people who, if I didn't know them personally, somebody close to me in this building knew them, had +worked with them, was at the same post five or ten years ago. So there's an extraordinary sense of loss and responsibility. Every one +of us who had any responsibility, from the security experts on up, we all feel like we have to figure out what happened, because we +clearly want to make sure it doesn't happen again. But there is an inherent risk in this job. +When I okayed sending Robert Ford to Hama at the beginning of the Syrian conflict, that was a risk. We said. ""Robert, do you want +to go there'? It's dangerous. We can't guarantee your safety, because we have to rely on host nations."" +QUESTION: Yeah, yeah. +SECRETARY CLINTON: But you think it's the right thing to do. It clearly sends a message about where the United States' values +are. +Or when I was in Egypt, and we were protested against in Cairo, and then the security people came to me and said, ""You're supposed +to go to Alexandria. It's a much less fortified position than we have in Cairo. Maybe you shouldn't go."" I said, 'No.'"" I said ""I'm +going to go."" I went. But I mean, we had people throwing shoes and tomatoes, +This is an inherently risky world. It is a dangerous world. And we will do our very best, as our military and intelligence colleagues +do, to try to think through how to provide as much security as possible, but you can't keep people behind 20-foot walls and expect +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739674 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And whether it's the Marine barracks in Beirut being blown up or a CIA outpost in Afghanistan, Americans +need to realize that it's not only our soldiers; it's our civilians serving our country who are also putting their lives on the line to — +QUESTION: Well, that's been the wakeup call of this incident. +SECRETARY CLINTON: -- to do the job that we ask them to do. +QUESTION: So one thing that a lot of people have said in this is another — somebody from the White House told me they thought +watching you and °barna at the Andrews Air Force Base, there was a new bond between you two, that everybody knows you all +aren't buddy-buddy, but you all clearly respect each other and work together. Do you feel that you had a new bond? I mean, I saw +that you touched his hand on watching the— watching it, you touched his hand after he spoke, and then when you all walked back to +the families that he put his arm around your waist. Do you feel this gave some — did you feel that at that moment? Somebody at the +White House saw it, and then somebody at the State Department also thought so. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I feel like there have been a number of moments — maybe not public moments —that have been +very, very precious to me in my relationship with the President I was in that very small group that made the decision about bin Ladin +and was there in that Sit Room, and -- +QUESTION: Right, which we've all seen that picture. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes, going up and down the emotional rollercoaster. And walked with him across the Colonnade in the +White House for him to address the nation. I mean, there are a lot of moments, but that was a particularly poignant time for both of us +because we live every day — he as President, I as Secretary — with the knowledge that decisions we make, sending a Chris Stevens to +Libya, are ones that have risk and danger attached to them. And so I — +QUESTION: When he came here that — +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes. +QUESTION: next day, did you call him and say, ""I'd love you to come over?"" +SECRETARY CLINTON: I did. I did. +QUESTION: Do you call him, like, on the secure phone? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh, yes. +QUESTION: Where's the secure phone? +SECRETARY CLINTON: In my office. +QUESTION: Oh. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah, yeah, we have a secure phone. Yeah. +QUESTION: I know. Did you call him on the secure phone? +SECRETARY CLINTON: We wanted -- +QUESTION: Or do you only do that if there's, like, a real emergency? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah. We communicate in lots of different ways. But I thought it was important if he could, but it was +— I knew that he has a lot of other demands on his thne, and I was going over to the Rose Garden and then I said, ""Mr. President, can — +do you have time to come by and see our people if we can get them gathered?"" And he didn't hesitate, absolutely. And it was -- +QUESTION: Do you say Mr. President or do you say Barad? +SECRETARY CLINTON: I do. I say Mr. President. I believe strongly in saying Mr. President. +QUESTION: Okay. +SECRETARY CLINTON: I think it's a sign of respect for the person and for the office. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739674 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Now let's start going toward UNGA. The — on September 15', I think the Saturday before Netanyahu was +going to be on Meet The Press, you had a private call with him. +SECRETARY CLINTON: I did, I did. +QUESTION: Okay. And that — the Mideast thing and Iran, it's kind of been in tumult. So the relationship — do you feel that you +need to work your — work on that with your past relationship with him? I mean, this is — as two politicians to one another, what's — +show me how this works. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, look. I've known Bibi a long time, and I consider him a friend. He is somebody who I've spent a +lot of time talking to in New York, in Washington, in Jerusalem. We have had long in-person conversations, long telephone +conversations. And I respect the fact that he is trying to protect Israel, that — I often tell people, put yourself into the position of the +Prime Minister of Israel at a time of great tumult and uncertainty. And so I guess I would say, on a pretty regular basis, we — I check +in with him. +QUESTION: Does that help, though, given that, kind of, people view his relationship with the President as rocky, that you all -- +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well -- +QUESTION: -- are in kind of— have your own relationship? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, here's — I think he's been around so long he has good relationships with a lot of people, and I think +he has a relationship of mutual respect with the President. And his concerns about what's going to happen are totally +legitimate. They're concerns that the President shares, which is why the President has said our policy is prevention, not +containment. And he's been very, very clear about that. +QUESTION: Okay. Now then you go to New York for UNGA. But I talked to Betsy, your friend from Park Ridge. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Right, right. +QUESTION: Okay. So she brought this up on her own about your hair. +SECRETARY CLINTON: (Laughter.) +QUESTION: She said -- +STAFF: I'm amazed you got — what -- +QUESTION: (Laughter.)

And do you — I know you haven't given a lot of thought, but is there something that you just can't wait to do? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh, yeah, sleep. Sleep would be good. +QUESTION: How do you balance all this? I mean, you do go nonstop. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes, I do. +QUESTION: I mean, I've gained five pounds just travelling with you. (Laughter.) No joke. On that travel, it was an excuse to eat +shit. (Laughter.) +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah, there's a lot of it around. (Laughter.) +QUESTION: Yeah. I mean, you just grab food. They're like, oh, well I need this to get through the day. And I wasn't even +performing like you are; I just sit here and do nothing. So I blame you for this. So how do you do it? +SECRETARY CLINTON: I take responsibility for that too. (Laughter.) +QUESTION: Yeah, yeah, exactly. (Laughter.) How do you, like, balance -- +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, first -- +QUESTION: -- this physically and also to be, like, a strong leader but also then have the compassion and the person? I mean, how +do you pull it off? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah. Well, I mean, first, it's just who I am. And I don't think about it being anything other than going +about my business. But look, I do try to exercise, I do try to eat right. I fall off the wagon on both. I do try to get enough sleep. +QUESTION: Yeah. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Not easy to do. Try to catch up it with whenever I can. But the work is so consuming, intellectually +demanding, with such high stakes — literally life and death at stake — +QUESTION: Yeah. +SECRETARY CLINTON: -- that I am constantly thinking and planning and reacting, trying to manage this extraordinary panoply +of issues around the world that I think are going to affect my country, my daughter, the future that I would like to see, and so it gets +me up every day and keeps me going till late at night. +QUESTION: And do you — your colleagues here tell me — you've got a great team, by the way — I have so much fun with them -- +SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you. +QUESTION: -- and they're all very talented. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you. +QUESTION: But do you — they all tell me how you're always searching for the next best organizer. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes. +QUESTION: Saying you're always looking for the next best binder or — so what is this about you that you -- +SECRETARY CLINTON: (Laughter.) It's almost a game that I play with myself. When you have as much coming at you as I do +every day, it's kind of a constant joke we have. Okay, our cards or paper or our boxes or some other form of storage — I mean, it's just +a way of kind of keeping it light, because there's so much serious that we have to do all the time. +QUESTION: And do you — is it true that the President gave you, like, an inscribed iPad cover or something? +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739674 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Or did you see one that he had or what? +SECRETARY CLINTON: We were just talking one day. We do that. I mean, I gave - +QUESTION: I know you're going to see him after me. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Very - yeah, very shortly, yeah. +QUESTION; I'll be happy to go with you, (Laughter) +SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh, I know I gave him an espresso machine one time We were talking about good espresso and how +hard it was to find. And I really enjoy mytime with him, and I also know probably better than anybody because of what - the +positions that I've had, and the respect I have for how hard - how impossible the job has always been, but certainly is today. It's not +all bad news. I mean, there's a lot of bad news I have to deliver, a lot of difficult issues I have to raise, a lot of hard questions be has +to grapple with So it's nice every so often to - like when Be the dog came in to see Aung San Sua Kyi, when I went to see - +QUESTION: Oh, well, I wanted to ask about that -- +SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh, when I went to see her in Burma, I brought her gifts, which you do when you travel through +protocol. But I brought a gift for her dog she adores her dog - and the dog was such good company when she was under house +west. And so when she went to the White House to see the President, she really wanted to meet Bo the dog who she had heard about, +and the President was so great. +QUESTION: Oh, that's cool. +SECRETARY CLINTON; He had Be outside the Oval Office and when the meeting ended he said, ""Oh, wait, one more person I +want you to meet""' right? And in came Bothe dog She was so thrilled. I mean, we try to make it not just a grind because it could be +with everything going on in the world, literally just debilitating- trying to figure out the right thing to do how best to protect +America, how to get our values across, how to deal with intractable situations like the ones we face in so many places, So every so +often, we kind of lighten it up. +QUESTION: Which I forgot to mention in my little timetable of the action profile about you - you did see her when she was here +and you said you know something about being kind of an icon and becoming a politician, what that entails. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes, yes, yes, yes. +QUESTION: And you had her to your home for a dinner. +SECRETARY CLINTON: I did. I did. +QUESTION: And can you tell me a little about that and what that meant to you? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I - +QUESTION: Had she been to your home before? +SECRETARY CLINTON; No, no. +QUESTION: Okay. +SECRETARY CLINTON; She hadn't been in the United States in, I think, 40 years. +QUESTION: Oh, wow. +SECRETARY CLINTON: We can check that, but I think it's like 40 years. She had me in her home, and it was such an emotional +experience, and obviously I wanted to reciprocate. And so I had her in my home and we had a very small dinner. And before the +dinner, I spent about an hour with her just talking like two old friends, because I had felt when I met her for the first time that we'd +been friends forever. And I just so highly admire her but I also have such affection for her +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739674 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Now your approval rating right now is close to 70 percent. So a lot of people are asking +the obvious question: What about 2016? And people — do you think now people -- +STAFF: I thought the obvious question was: Who are the other 30? (Laughter.) +QUESTION: Well, yeah. What happened with the other 30? How are they not approving? (Laughter.) So do you — I mean, do you +think that — why do you think people see you now differently than when you were running for office, or -- +SECRETARY CLINTON: I can't even speculate on that, Monica, because I feel like I've always been the same, other than perhaps +my hairstyles, which have changed over the last 65 years. +QUESTION: (Laughter.) Haven't we all, though? Yeah, even men's. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes, indeed. +QUESTION: It's not just women. +SECRETARY CLINTON: But I feel like I've been the same person but in different roles over time. And I appreciate the fact that +people are favorably inclined and supporting what I'm trying to do as Secretary, but I can't really venture a theory as to why or why +not. I just have to get up every day and do the best I can. +QUESTION: Do you think there's a difference, Hillary, in seeing you running and campaigning versus governing? Or -- +SECRETARY CLINTON: Could be. Could be. +QUESTION: But you — do you have a -- do you give it any thought? +SECRETARY CLINTON: I really don't. I really don't. +QUESTION: Okay. Well, you're too busy to even think about it. So there we have — a lot of people think you've got to run in 2016 +and that service is so important to you that, ultimately, if it's there, they can't imagine you would say no. Now of course, it's not as +easy as everybody thinks it's going to be. (Laughter.) They think it's going to be there for the taking for you. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Right, right. Well, but I have always believed in service, but I did not for — what, 53 years of my life — +ever believe I would run for office. I respected people who did like my husband and supported a lot of candidates over the course of +my adulthood and — actually even before — I was a Goldwater girl when I was — I don't know — whatever glade I was. +So I don't know why it would be surprising that I said, look, I intend to do service, but I intend to do service in a different capacity — +going back to the advocacy community, working on women and girls, working in the Clinton Foundation, Clinton Global Initiative -- +QUESTION: So you wouldn't start your own foundation since you've got that big apparatus there that's so successful. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, yeah. I mean, I think — I mean, and it seems to me that there's just a great opportunity to expand +what we're doing, to deepen it in areas that I'm interested in. But again, I haven't made any decisions. I just know that I will always +want to be of service. I believe in service. And one of my mentors, Marian Wright Edelman, and — used to quote all the time that +service is the rent we pay for living on this earth, and I think that's exactly right. +QUESTION: But you're not ruling it out? +SECRETARY CLINTON: I have ruled it out. I have ruled it out. (Laughter.) +QUESTION: Oh, my God. I don't want you to say that. I think it would be more fun if you said — (laughter) — I've not ruled it +out. (Laughter.) +SECRETARY CLINTON: That's funny. +QUESTION: Seriously. Okay.

(Laughter.) +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah. He's a hard taskmaster. +QUESTION: Isn't he? +SECRETARY CLINTON: I don't know. I'll think about it. I mean, I that period was so — +QUESTION: It was so jam-packed. +SECRETARY CLINTON: -- jam-packed. +STAFF: (Inaudible) you have to be more specific. What did you actually want? +QUESTION: What do you mean? +STAFF: Tell her what you actually asked for. +QUESTION: Oh. Oh, I wanted — you mean, like, just hang out? Like, go on a -- +STAFF: No. You wanted — +QUESTION: Oh, I wanted to have dinner in New York with you and the President and Chelsea. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh. (Laughter.) +QUESTION: That's what I asked for. Or breakfast. +SECRETARY CLINTON: I want to do that. (Laughter.) +QUESTION: Or coffee. (Laughter.) That's what I asked for And then I said [just want to hang out with Hillary and just know +what it's like to be Hillary. I asked for all kinds of things, and he thought I was like a nutcase. +STAFF: She wanted to take a walk with you. +QUESTION: Oh, yeah. I said I could go for a walk. Oh, God. I did once. When I did the profile of Michele Bachmann, I went for +a walk with her. Oh, my God, she like freaking wanted to kill me. Do you know what I mean'? She does this fast walk. And so I was +carrying my little recorder, and then all I could hear when I played it back was like me like that. (Laughter.) You know what I +mean? She was, like, going to run me into the damn ground. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Oh, my gosh. You did a profile on her? +QUESTION: Back when she — the two week period she was surging in Iowa at the start of the Republican's — and then she was gone +as all the Republicans popped up and then were gone. +SECRETARY CLINTON: That's funny. +QUESTION: Do you know what I mean? But anyway — (laughter) — all right, now, let's see. And then the other thing I was going +to get into was just the — how you have to be a leader and the muscular part of you versus the compassionate, the pragmatic part of +you, but the lofty goals part of you +SECRETARY CLINTON: Right. +QUESTION: So is there anything in this last few five weeks that you think kind of puts you there? +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739674 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, yeah. I mean, I think - look, I mean, what happened in Benghazi, but also elsewhere in the +Middle East. I mean, I had to get on the phone and really strongly demand that governments do more to take care of our people. I had +to be present for the State Department family when we lost four colleagues and do it in a way that was respectful but demonstrating +the emotion that we all felt. So - +QUESTION: Would that be like that video hookup you did with - in - +SECRETARY CLINTON: In Libya? In Tripoli? Probably, yeah. +QUESTION: Would that be one? Or here? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, yeah. I mean, we did so much. We reached out to so many people. I personally did. +QUESTION: And then you of course talked to his sister on the phone and stuff like that. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah. So Chris's sister and then went over to - we went out to Andrews early and met all the family +members. +QUESTION: And before you got - somebody told me before you got out of the car on your way to Andrews, you were on the phone +to - which country were you on the phone and said, +""Get your people there""? Oh, Tunisia, because there were attacks still continuing there and saying, ""Get your people out there. No +excuses."" Was it something like that? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, we had - +QUESTION: Was it something like that? Would that be accurate? +SECRETARY CLINTON: There were a lot of calls like that. We had a lot of threats. +QUESTION: So you had to be kind of a hard-ass. +SECRETARY CLINTON: We had a lot of threats everywhere. So - and remember, in a lot of these places, the security systems +just disappeared after the dictators disappeared. And so there's a difference between some countries where they did not have the +capacity, but they had the will and countries that don't have either the will or the capacity and counties that have the capacity but +without the will. So you have to zero in on what the right message is to each of those. +QUESTION: Well, what can you do if they have the capacity but not the will? +SECRETARY CLINTON: You just have to up the pressure as much as you can. +QUESTION: And how do you do that? +SECRETARY CLINTON: You get everybody you can on the phone, you get everybody calling everybody who needs to be on the +phone, and you basically both appeal to them doing the right thing and threaten them if they don't. +QUESTION: Which country would that have been? +SECRETARY CLINTON: No. No further than that. (Laughter.) +QUESTION: Okay. All right. Okay. And then - +STAFF: That piece of paper was the - +QUESTION: That said she has to go? Because I could keep going to get more detail, more detail, more detail. (Laughter.) +STAFF: It's polite. We just set it up that she comes in and gets a blank piece of paper with this - (laughter) - +QUESTION: No, no. I saw it does have something written on it. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah. I have to leave for the White House - +QUESTION: I couldn't read it. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739674 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

There was something on it, but I couldn't read it, unfortunately, through it. +SECRETARY CLINTON: That's funny. +QUESTION: Anyway, okay. And then on your legacy, since you didn't really get into that, the one thing is public diplomacy to me +seems to be one part of it — your townterviews and then the secretary of cool thing where you came that — it's all kind of this public +persona. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah. Yeah. +QUESTION: The brand of Secretary of State in America. The economic statecraft seemed to me to be part of your — +SECRETARY CLINTON: Right. That's a big part of it. +QUESTION: Okay. And in that — +SECRETARY CLINTON: Internet freedom. I mean, we have a long list we could give you, which I'm sure you could — +QUESTION: And the Asia focus, like going to Beijing, it was one of your last trips, and it was your first trip. +SECRETARY CLINTON: My first trip, absolutely. +QUESTION: And then on the Arab Spring, that was something that you all were involved in and out of Do you feel a little bit's +come back to bite you? +SECRETARY CLINTON: No. +QUESTION: Okay. +SECRETARY CLINTON: No. Because I do think that it's — it would be a contortion of who we are not to support people seeking +democracy and freedom and free markets. +QUESTION: Well, everybody said, actually, the day after September 11th that you had the star tone and did better than Obama. I +mean, all the critics thought you — everybody that we talked to thought that, that you had struck the right tone. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, look, I believe strongly that democracy is hard. It is a never-completed journey. I mean, we are +still working hard to make sure we live up to our own ideals and values, and I want to contextualize what's going on in the world. I +mean, these countries have gone frorn oppression of decades without any democratic history into a burst of revolutionary energy to try +to do something they've never done before. +And so it is hard. It's something that is going to take time, and I think the United States remains a beacon of hope and opportunity, an +example of freedom and dignity and human rights, but that doesn't mean we can control everything that happens in every country, +particularly within a revolutionary transition. But I would never have imagined that after something as horrific as the murder of our +four colleagues and the injury of others that you would have a protest — a pro-American protest in Libya demanding that those who +killed Chris Stevens and his colleagues were not the future that Libya wanted. I think that's a remarkable turn of events. +And so we just have to be resolved that we're going to do the best we can to stand for our values, protect ourselves in a dangerous, +fast changing world, and manage as best we can this enormous flood of change that is sweeping across the globe. But with that I'm +going to have to — +QUESTION: Okay. I understand. +SECRETARY CLINTON: -- head to the White House. +QUESTION: Gotcha. +SECRETARY CLINTON: All right, my dear. +QUESTION: Okay.

There is new local reporting that hotels are being +targeted. The INC conducted a raid on a house/storage facility and found and arrested an Egyptian cell reportedly there +for the purpose of attacking hotels. It is believed they were connected to the cell arrested last week, and that +Interrogation of those arrested earlier led to this round of arrests. Ahmed Qadafadarn, cousin of Qadhafi who was +envoy to Egypt (and was rumored to have defected), is purportedly the funder and organizer of this cell. +CA updated its travel guidance to tell travelers to stay away from the Fadihi Hotel. Stevens will inform the INC this +afternoon. [NOTE: for your reference, I appended the new WM at the end of this email.] +Stevens will be meeting with MFA in one hour and will make a written request for better security at the hotel and +for better security-related coordination. He still feels comfortable in the hotel. They are looking into the idea of moving +into a villa, but that is some way off. Need to consider resource requirements (would need TDY'er with authority to sign +lease, hire local guards, etc.). Based on discussion with DS yesterday, the hotel remains the safest location. Stevens will +continue to work to have the TNC post more people outside and beef up security presence. They have a good set back +and are way off the ground. +Flights: Stevens checked with head of the airport. There are no regular humanitarian or other flights, however, +there are flights coming in and the airport could support an air bridge if any country wanted to sat one up. Stevens will +see his European counterparts this afternoon and will ask how they are bringing in their people and whether we can be +part of it. +- Trip to Rome: Stevens doesn't know yet if Jai is going to Rome. As of now, he's inclined not to go but he might +change his mind. If the Department thinks he ought to go, Stevens can pass that message. As it stands now Mahmoud +Jabril and All Tarhouni will be going. +Misrata: Stevens spoke with Brig. Gen. Hassi re Misrata. The general was pretty dear that the ostensible move by +Qadhafi forces out of the area is a ruse. They are withdrawing troops so they won't be hit by NATO, but will send them +back in in civilian clothing so they can continue killing that way. Hassi said the assertion Qadhafi would leave to the +tribes to resolve was ridiculous because there are no armed tribes around. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739681 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

S/E Stevens' USG +colleagues are waiting for guidance from their HQ regarding proposed compensation of +52,000 Libyan dinars ($43,312): 13,000 ($10,828) per victim, to cover funeral costs and other +compensation. TNC will accompany S/E Stevens on his courtesy calls on the families, to take +place either today or tomorrow. In the view of S/E Stevens, the TNC has been handling this +incident in a professional and low-profile manner. +[Note: S/E Stevens separately provided the following details of the accident: The U.S. vehicle +was traveling back from the Benghazi airport at moderate speed. The U.S. vehicle was struck +by the Libyan vehicle going at high speed in an intersection. As a correction to earlier +information - four people were killed and only two were injured.] +Police chief: S/E Stevens met with the Benghazi chief of police today, following discussions +related to the accident. The police chief is a university professor who took on these police +duties after the revolution. According to the police chief, there are only 3,000 police in the +Benghazi area, down from 6,000 prior to the revolution. Many police simply did not return to +their jobs after the revolution, as they feared retaliation.

However, the TNC is taking steps to address these concerns. The +Council is holding meetings this week to appoint Ministers-equivalent for Interior and Justice, +and will hold its first cabinet meetings this weekend (April 30-May 1) after Jibril returns from +abroad. While S/E Stevens shares the UK's concerns regarding the INC's governing +capacities, he does not think there is a need yet to address this directly with the INC.

These weapons were +originally intended for sale to the rebel forces in Libya, but AQIM operatives were able to meet secretly with these arms +dealers and purchase the equipment.

I told +her wanted to consult with Robert to double check on this: +Robert agrees that 1-1131 remains quite involved in the Syria issue. For instance, when he was in the London meeting on +the Syria opposition just before UNGA, the Qatari rep got Hill on the phone in minutes during the meeting to weigh in +on a Q re the SNC — and HbJ's view carried the day. +We are now sending to Amb Susan Ziadeh the list of organizations that we want to Qataris to contact inside Syria to ask +them to choose reps to send to Doha. We are also sending her the list of names we are socializing for consideration for +the 'political council"" Susan can discuss these lists in Doha on Sunday, so it would make sense for S to wait until +Monday or Tuesday to engage with HbJ on some of these ideas for managing the conference and its outcomes. +Robert confirms that there is a lot of talk about the Doha meeting being postponed for a few days, but there is no new +firm date. We are quite comfortable with a delay as it gives us (and others) time to press for good +representation/participation and a better outcome. The idea of a follow-on conference in Cairo is still very much alive. +She suggested she might also check with Hb1 on whether he is planning a trip here anytime soon.

""We don't pretend to be experts in security. It +has to be objectively examined. That's where it belongs. It does not belong in the campaign arena."" Stevens said he has +been getting briefings from the State Department on the progress of the investigation. +'Very Optimistic' +Stevens said while he was close with his son, ""we weren't that familiar with the day-to-day activities' he undertook in +Libya. On the occasions when his son called home, Stevens said, he didn't share many details about his work other than +to say that ""he was very optimistic about the results of the election and the new government.""

""He felt very strongly about Secretary Clinton,"" +Stevens said, referring to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. ""He felt she was an extremely able person."" +As for whether he had the tools and protection he needed for his job, Stevens said of his son: ""We didn't get into that"" +sort of discussion. ""I never heard him say a critical word about the State Department or the administration, or any +administration for that matter.

He said +Obama telephoned him after his son's death to express his regrets and talk about identifying the perpetrators who +should be brought to justice, and that the conversation was in the context of his presidential duties and not political. +While polls indicate that voters say Obama would do a better job on foreign policy issues, Republicans see an +opportunity to cut into that advantage, pointing to surveys showing that voters have grown less satisfied since the Sept. +11 assault in Libya. +Stevens stopped short of directly criticizing either candidate. +""I'm not sure exactly what he's been saying and not saying, but our position is it would be a real shame if this were +politicized,"" Stevens said, referring to Romney. ""Our concern now is memorializing Chris and remembering his +contribution to the country."" +Campaign Shift +Romney's current foreign policy position marks a shift in tone from a campaign that has focused almost exclusively on +economic issues and jobs. +The Romney team is attempting to link two campaign messages by charging Obama with weakening American interests +abroad at the same time as he's failed to boost the economy back home. +Speaking to voters on Oct. 12 in Richmond, Virginia, Romney chastised Vice President Joe Biden for his defense of the +administration's actions in the Libya attack. +""He's doubling down on denial, and we need to understand exactly what happened as opposed to just having people +brush this aside,"" Romney said. +During last week's vice presidential debate, Biden said the White House wasn't told of a request for additional security +at the mission in Benghazi the month before the incident. +State Department official Eric Nordstrom, who served as a regional security officer in Tripoli until July, told a +congressional committee that he was turned down when he requested an extension of a 16-member security support +team that was scheduled to leave Libya in August. +'Mission Creep' +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739703 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Dr. Rice, thank you for joining us. +RICE: Good to be with you, Jake. +TAPPER: So, first of all, what is the latest you can tell us on who these attackers were at the embassy or at +the consulate in Benghazi? We're hearing that the Libyans have arrested people. They're saying that some +people involved were from outside the country, that there might have even been Al Qaida ties. What's the +latest information? +RICE: Well, Jake, first of all, it's important to know that there's an FBI investigation that has begun and +will take some time to be completed. That will tell us with certainty what transpired. +But our current best assessment, based on the information that we have at present, is that, in fact, what +this began as, it was a spontaneous -- not a premeditated -- response to what had transpired in Cairo. In +Cairo, as you know, a few hours earlier, there was a violent protest that was undertaken in reaction to this +very offensive video that was disseminated. +We believe that folks in Benghazi, a small number of people came to the embassy to -- or to the consulate, +rather, to replicate the sort of challenge that was posed in Cairo. And then as that unfolded, it seems to +have been hijacked, let us say, by some individual clusters of extremists who came with heavier weapons, +weapons that as you know in -- in the wake of the revolution in Libya are -- are quite common and +accessible.

Why was there not better security at the compound +in Benghazi? Why were there not U.S. Marines at the embassy in Tripoli? +RICE: Well, first of all, we had a substantial security presence with our personnel... +TAPPER: Not substantial enough, though, right? +RICE: ... with our personnel and the consulate in Benghazi. Tragically, two of the four Americans who +were killed were there providing security. That was their function. And indeed, there were many other +colleagues who were doing the same with them. +It obviously didn't prove sufficient to the -- the nature of the attack and sufficient in that -- in that +moment. And that's why, obviously, we have reinforced our remaining presence in Tripoli and why the +president has very -- been very clear that in Libya and throughout the region we are going to call on the +governments, first of all, to assume their responsibilities to protect our facilities and our personnel, and +we're reinforcing our facilities and our -- our embassies where possible... +TAPPER: But why... +RICE: ... and where needed. +TAPPER: Why would we not have Marines at the embassy in Tripoli to begin with? It would seem like this +-- this is obviously an unstable country. This is a region where U.S. interests have been attacked in +previous months. Why were there not Marines there to begin with? +RICE: First of all, there are Marines in some places around the world. There are not Marines in every +facility. That depends on the circumstances. That depends on the requirements. Our presence in Tripoli, +as in Benghazi, is relatively new, as you will recall. We've been back post-revolution only for a matter of +months. +But I've visited there myself, both to Tripoli and Benghazi. I was very grateful to have a strong security +presence with me as part of our -- our embassy detachment there. So we certainly are aware that Libya is a +place where there have been increasingly some violent incidents. The security personnel that the State +Department thought were required were in place. And we'll see when the investigation unfolds whether +what was -- what transpired in Benghazi might have unfolded differently in different circumstances. +But the president has been very clear.

And President Obama pledged to repair America's relationships with the Muslim world. Why does +the U.S. seem so impotent? And why is the U.S. even less popular today in some of these Muslim and Arab +countries than it was four years ago? +RICE: Jake, we're not impotent. We're not even less popular, to challenge that assessment. I don't know +on what basis you make that judgment. But let me -- let me point... +TAPPER: It just seems that the U.S. government is powerless as this -- as this maelstrom erupts. +RICE: It's actually the opposite. First of all, let's be clear about what transpired here. What happened this +week in Cairo, in Benghazi, in many other parts of the region... +TAPPER: Tunisia, Khartoum... +RICE: ... was a result a direct result of a heinous and offensive video that was widely disseminated, that +the U.S. government had nothing to do with, which we have made clear is reprehensible and disgusting. +We have also been very clear in saying that there is no excuse for violence, there is -- that we have +condemned it in the strongest possible terms. +But let's look at what's happened. It's quite the opposite of being impotent. We have worked with the +governments in Egypt. President Obama picked up the phone and talked to President Morsi in Egypt. And +as soon as he did that, the security provided to our personnel in our embassies dramatically increased. +President Morsi... +TAPPER: It took two days for President Morsi to say anything about this. +RICE: President Morsi has been out repeatedly and said that he condemns this violence. He's called off -- +and his people have called off any further demonstrations and have made very clear that this has to stop. +(CROSSTALK) +RICE: Now, and and same, frankly, in Tunisia, in Yemen, and, of course, in Libya, where the +government has -- has gone out of its way to try to step up security and express deepest remorse for what +has happened. We are quite popular in Libya, as you might expect, having been a major partner in their +revolution. What transpired outside of our consulate in Benghazi was not an expression of deep-seated +anti-Americanism on the part of the Libyan people. Quite the contrary. The counter-demonstrations, the +outpouring of sympathy and support for Ambassador Stevens and for the United States, the government +of Libya and -- and the people on the street saying how pained they are by this, is much more a reflection +of the sentiment towards the United States than a small handful of heavily armed mobsters. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739704 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +TAPPER: That certainly, according to polling, is the case in Libya. Not the case in Egypt. And since you +brought up President Morsi, let me try to get some clarification on something. President Obama was asked +about the relationship with Egypt on Wednesday, and this is what he said. +(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP) +OBAMA: I don't think that we would consider them an ally, but we don't consider them an enemy. They +are a new government that is trying to find its way. +(END VIDEO CLIP) +TAPPER: The United States has sent billions of dollars of U.S. taxpayer money to Egypt over the last few +decades. And by definition, as you know, according to the State Department, Egypt is a major non-NATO +ally of the United States. Why would President Obama say Egypt is not an ally? +RICE: Well, first of all, the president has been very clear and -- and everybody understands that Egypt is a +very critical partner of the United States, has long been so. That relationship remains the same, and the +president wasn't signaling any change in -- in the nature... +TAPPER: Was he trying to nudge Morsi? +RICE: The president wasn't signaling any change in the nature of our relationship. Obviously, the +president had a conversation with President Morsi and a very productive one, in which he underscored +that it's, of course, the responsibility of the Egyptian government as host to protect diplomatic personnel +and facilities, including our own, and we saw that President Morsi, immediately after that, took dramatic +steps to improve the security of our facilities in Cairo and elsewhere, and then went out and repeatedly +made a number of very important and powerful statements condemning the violence and conveying the +message that, however hateful such a video may be, there is absolutely no justification for violence against +the United States or other Western partners. +So what we've seen is that the president has been incredibly calm, incredibly steady, and incredibly +measured in his approach to this set of developments. And his interventions, his leadership has ensured +that in Egypt, in Yemen, in Tunisia, in Libya, and many other parts of the world, that leaders have come +out and made very plain that there's no excuse for this violence. We heard Prime Minister Erdogan of +Turkey say the same, we heard the Grand Mufti in Saudi Arabia say the same, that there's no excuse for +violence, that violence is to be condemned, and that governments have a responsibility to protect United +States personnel and facilities and those of all foreign diplomats. +TAPPER: I know you have to go, but very quickly, was the president in that interview trying to nudge +President Morsi, ""Get your act together""? +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739704 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

California, as he prepares for a memorial service for his son next week. +Mitt Romney, the Republican nominee, has criticized President Barack ()barna for not providing adequate security in +Libya, saying the administration has left the country exposed to a deadly terrorist attack. +The ambassador's father, a lawyer, said politicians should await the findings of a formal investigation before making +accusations or judgments. +""The security matters are being adequately investigated,"" Stevens said. ""We don't pretend to be experts in security. It +has to be objectively examined. That's where it belongs. It does not belong in the campaign arena,"" Stevens said he has +been getting briefings from the State Department on the progress of the investigation. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739711 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

On the occasions when his son called home, Stevens said, he didn't share many details about his work other than +to say that ""he was very optimistic about the results of the election and the new government."" They last spoke by phone +in August and by e-mail days before his son's death. +Stevens, a registered Democrat, said he isn't politically active. He declined to say how he'll vote in the presidential +election. +He said his son, who was a career diplomat and had worked for Republican and Democratic presidents, hadn't expressed +concerns to him about security or support from the administration. ""He felt very strongly about Secretary Clinton,"" +Stevens said, referring to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. ""He felt she was an extremely able person."" +As for whether he had the tools and protection he needed for his job, Stevens said of his son: ""We didn't get into that"" +sort of discussion. ""I never heard him say a critical word about the State Department or the administration, or any +administration for that matter, He came up through the foreign service, not politics."" +Obama Call +Stevens said neither of the two presidential campaigns reached out to him, and that he is grateful for that. He said +Obama telephoned him after his son's death to express his regrets and talk about identifying the perpetrators who +should be brought to justice, and that the conversation was in the context of his presidential duties and not political. +While polls indicate that voters say Obama would do a better job on foreign policy issues, Republicans see an +opportunity to cut into that advantage, pointing to surveys showing that voters have grown less satisfied since the Sept. +11 assault in Libya. +Stevens stopped short of directly criticizing either candidate. +""I'm not sure exactly what he's been saying and not saying, but our position is it would be a real shame if this were +politicized,"" Stevens said, referring to Romney. Our concern now is memorializing Chris and remembering his +contribution to the country."" +Campaign Shift +Romney's current foreign policy position marks a shift in tone from a campaign that has focused almost exclusively on +economic issues arid jobs. +The Romney team is attempting to link two campaign messages by charging Obama with weakening American interests +abroad at the same time as he's failed to boost the economy back home. +Speaking to voters on Oct. 12 in Richmond, Virginia, Romney chastised Vice President Joe Biden for his defense of the +administration's actions in the Libya attack. +""He's doubling down on denial, and we need to understand exactly what happened as opposed to just having people +brush this aside,"" Romney said. +During last week's vice presidential debate, Biden said the White House wasn't told of a request for additional security +at the mission in Benghazi the month before the incident. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739711 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

They add that there has been no firm response from the UK government, and the initial discussions +have been conducted by officers of the British Special Intelligence Service (SIS / In the opinion of these +same sources the initial idea of these talks may have been raised by former Libyan Foreign Minister Mousa +Kousa, after his arrival in London in late March 2011.) +According to these sensitive sources, Saif al-Islam and his advisors realize that there is little chance the TNC +will agree to such an offer, and that SIS may be using this contact as a means of collecting intelligence while +protecting British interests in Libya. Notwithstanding this concern, in the opinion of these individuals, Saif al- +Islam believes that introducing the possibility of a ceasefire and the subsequent negotiations may create +divisions within NATO and weaken their military operations against Qaddafi's forces. +(Source Comment.

We will +forward the transcripts from the other Sunday morning shows as we receive them. Thank you +Announcer: From NBC News in Washington, MEET THE PRESS with David Gregory. +GREGORY: And good morning. Relative calm this morning in the Middle East after several days of +intense anti-American protests raged across many parts of the Islamic world. But word this morning +that the Obama administration has ordered the evacuation of all but emergency personnel from +diplomatic missions in Tunisia and Sudan. And defense secretary Leon Panetta saying this morning, +the Pentagon has deployed forces to several areas in an increased effort to protect U.S. personnel +and property from the potential of violent protests, the latest consequences, of course, of this +troubling unrest. Joining me now for the very latest, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, +Susan Rice. Ambassador Rice, welcome back to MEET THE PRESS. +MS. SUSAN RICE (U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations): Thank you, good to be here. +GREGORY: The images as you well know are jarring to Americans watching all of this play out this +week, and we'll share the map of all of this turmoil with our viewers to show the scale of it across not +just the Arab world, but the entire Islamic world and flashpoints as well. In Egypt, of course, the +protests outside the U.S. embassy there that Egyptian officials were slow to put down. This weekend +in Pakistan, protests as well there. More anti-American rage. Also protests against the drone +strikes. In Yemen, you also had arrests and some deaths outside of our U.S. embassy there.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +MS. RICE: Well, David, we can't predict with any certainty. But let's remember what has transpired +over the last several days. This is a response to a hateful and offensive video that was widely +disseminated throughout the Arab and Muslim world. Obviously, our view is that there is absolutely +no excuse for violence and that-- what has happened is condemnable, but this is a-- a spontaneous +reaction to a video, and it's not dissimilar but, perhaps, on a slightly larger scale than what we have +seen in the past with The Satanic Verses with the cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. Now, the +United States has made very clear and the president has been very plain that our top priority is the +protection of American personnel in our facilities and bringing to justice those who... +GREGORY: All right. +MS. RICE: . attacked our facility in Benghazi. +GREGORY: Well, let's talk— talk about-- well, you talked about this as spontaneous. Can you say +definitively that the attacks on-- on our consulate in Libya that killed ambassador Stevens and others +there security personnel, that was spontaneous, was it a planned attack? Was there a terrorist +element to it? +MS. RICE: Well, let us-- let me tell you the-- the best information we have at present. First of all, +there's an FBI investigation which is ongoing. And we look to that investigation to give us the +definitive word as to what transpired. But putting together the best information that we have available +to us today our current assessment is that what happened in Benghazi was in fact initially a +spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired hours before in Cairo, almost a copycat of-- of the +demonstrations against our facility in Cairo, which were prompted, of course, by the video. What we +think then transpired in Benghazi is that opportunistic extremist elements came to the consulate as +this was unfolding. They came with heavy weapons which unfortunately are readily available in post +revolutionary Libya, And it escalated into a much more violent episode. Obviously, that's-- that's our +best judgment now. We'll await the results of the investigation. And the president has been very +clear--we'll work with the Libyan authorities to bring those responsible to justice. +GREGORY: Was there a failure here that this administration is responsible for, whether it's an +intelligence failure, a failure to see this coming, or a failure to adequately protect U.S. embassies and +installations from a spontaneous kind of reaction like this? +MS. RICE: David, I don't think so. First of all we had no actionable intelligence to suggest that-- that +any attack on our facility in Benghazi was imminent. In Cairo, we did have indications that there was +the risk that the video might spark some-- some protests and our embassy, in fact, acted accordingly, +and had called upon the Egyptian authorities to— to reinforce our fasility. What we have seen as-- +with respect to the security response, obviously we had security personnel in Benghazi, a-- a +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739716 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

But what happened, obviously, overwhelmed the security we had in place which is why +the president ordered additional reinforcements to Tripoli and— and why elsewhere in the world we +have been working with governments to ensure they take up their obligations to protect us and we +reinforce where necessary. +GREGORY: The president and the secretary of state have talked about a mob mentality. That's my +words, not their words, but they talked about the-- the tyranny of mobs operating in this part of the +world. Here's the reality, if you look at foreign aid--U.S. direct foreign aid to the two countries +involved here, in Libya and Egypt, this is what you'd see: two hundred million since 2011 to Libya, +over a billion a year to Egypt and yet Americans are seeing these kinds of protests and attacks on our +own diplomats. Would-- what do you say to members of congress who are now weighing whether to +suspend our aid to these countries if this is the response that America gets? +MS. RICE: Well, first of all, David, let's put this in perspective. As I said, this is a response to a— a +very offensive video. It's not the first time that American facilities have come under attack in the +Middle East, going back to 1982 in-- in Beirut, going back to the Khobar Towers in-- in Saudi Arabia, +or even the attack on our embassy in 2008 in Yemen. +GREGORY: Or Iran in 1979. +MS. RICE: This has-- this has happened in the past, but there-- and so I don't think that-- that we +should misunderstand what this is. The reason we provide aid in Egypt and in Libya is because it +serves American interests because the relationships... +GREGORY: But-- but our Americans are not being served if this is the response. +MS. RICE: It serves our interests to have Egypt willing and able to-- to maintain its peace treaty with +Israel, it servers our interest for Egypt to continue to be a strong partner. Now, let's be clear, the +government, once President Obama called President Morsi, immediately in Egypt the security forces +came out and have provided very significant protection. Same in Tunisia, same in Libya, same in +Yemen. And all of these leaders have very forcefully conveyed their condemnation of what has +transpired. +GREGORY: But there were conflicting messages from the Morsi government. In Arabic they +encourage protests, in English they said stop the protests. This from an ally that we give over a +billion dollars? +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739716 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +MS. RICE: What has happened in fact is that the Egyptian government has come out and protected +our facilities. Our embassy is open today, things are calm. And Morsi has repeatedly been clear in +his condemnation of-- of what has occurred. We-- we are in these partnerships, David, over the long- +term. We think that-- that-- despite this very bumpy path we're on and the very disturbing images +we've seen, it's in the United States fundamental interest that people have the ability to choose their +own governments, that the governments be democratic and free. That's in our long-term best +interest. +GREGORY: You know that this... +MS. RICE: We need to reinforce that with our assistance. +GREGORY: We are in the middle of a heated presidential campaign, there are different foreign +policy visions. That's why we wanted to dedicate the hour to this today to really understand these +different views. Mitt Romney spoke out this week, he criticized the administration, talked about +whether the United States was apologizing for some of the initial response to this. These were his +comments this week. +(Videotape; Wednesday) +MR. MITT ROMNEY: The administration was wrong to stand by a statement sympathizing with those +who had breached our embassy in Egypt instead of condemning their actions. I think it's a— a-- a +terrible course to-- for America to-- to stand in apology for our values. +(End videotape) +GREGORY: Our embassies did not stand up for speech-- free speech in this initial response to this +violence. And the Republican charge is that it's weakness on the part of this administration that +invites this kind of chaos, that the administration has not been tough enough on radical extremists +that are beginning to take root in these countries. How do you respond to that? +MS. RICE: First of all, I think the American people and certainly our diplomats and-- and +development experts who are putting their lives on the line around the world every day expect from +our leadership unity in times of challenge and strong, steady, steadfast leadership of the sort that +President Obama has been providing. With respect to this, I think, vacuous charge of weakness, +let's-- lets recall, I think, the American people fully understand that this is an administration led by a +president who said when he ran for office that he would take the fight to al Qaeda. We have +decimated al Qaeda. °same bin Laden is dead. He said we would end the war responsibly in +Iraq. We've done that. He has restored relationships around the world.

I know that our standing is much improved and it's translated into important support for +strong American positions, for example with sanctions against Iran. +GREGORY: Was it inappropriate for Governor Romney to level the criticism he leveled? +MS. RICE: I'm not going to get into politics, David. That's not my role in this job. But I think the +American people welcome and appreciate strong, steady, unified leadership, bipartisan in times of +challenge. And for those men and women in our diplomatic service, including those we tragically lost, +they look to our leadership to be unified and responsible. +GREGORY: Let's talk about another area where the administration is on the defensive in terms of +leadership in the world, and that is the nuclear threat from Iran. Another area of tension between the +United States and Israel. In just a couple of minutes we will show our interview with the prime +minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu. And our viewers will see that. One aspect is how close Iran +is getting to becoming a nuclear power. I asked him about that. I want to show you a piece of the +interview and get your reaction to it. +(Videotape) +PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU (Prime Minister of Israel): I can tell you, David, that Iran +has been placed with some clear red lines on a few matters, and they have avoided crossing +them. So I think that as they get closer and closer and closer to the achievement of the weapons- +grade material, and they're very close, they're six months away from being about 90 percent of +having the enriched uranium for an atom bomb, I think that you have to place that red line before +them now, before it's-- it's too late. +GREGORY: As the prime minister of Israel, has Iran crossed your red line? +MR. NETANYAHU: Well, the way I would say it, David, is they are in the red zone. You know, they +are in the last 20 yards. And you can't let them cross that goal line. You can't let them score a +touchdown, because that would have unbelievable consequences, grievous consequences, for the +peace and security of us all-- of the world really. +(End videotape) +GREGORY: What is President Obama's line in the sand, the point at which he says to Iran don't +cross this with your nuclear program or there's going to be a military consequence? +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739716 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +MS. RICE: David, the president has been very, very clear. Our bottom line, if you want to call it a red +line, president's bottom line has been that Iran will not acquire a nuclear weapon and we will take no +option off the table to ensure that it does not acquire a nuclear weapon, including the military option. +GREGORY: The prime minister says_. +MS. RICE: But... +GREGORY: ...they are acquiring. +MS. RICE: ...he's talking about a-- a red zone which is a new concept... +GREGORY: No, no, but he's talking about how close they are to actually becoming a nuclear power-- +having to develop a capacity to become a nuclear power. +MS. RICE: They're not there yet. They are not there yet. And our assessment is, and-- and we +share this regularly with our Israeli counterparts in the intelligence and defense community, that there +is time and space for the pressure we are mounting, which is unprecedented in terms of sanctions, to +still yield results. This is not imminent. The window is not infinite, but let's be clear--the sanctions +that-- that are now in place reached their high point in July. The-- the Iranian economy is +suffering. It's shrinking for the first time. Negative one percent growth. The amount of production of +Iranian oil has dropped 40 percent over the last several months. Their currency has plummeted 40 +percent over the last several months. This pressure is even to use the Iranian's own words crippling. +GREGORY: But can you say... +MS. RICE: And we think... +GREGORY: ...that President Obama's strategy to keep Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon almost +at the end of his first term is succeeding or failing? +MS. RICE: David, what is clear is Iran does not have a nuclear weapon. And that Iran is more +isolated than ever internationally. The economic pressure it is facing is much greater than +ever. When President Obama came to office the international community was divided about +Iran. And Iran was internally very united. The exact opposite is the case today. The international +community is united. We just had another strong resolution out of the IAEA Board of Governors. And +the internal dynamics in Iran are-- are fracturing and the leadership is divided. We are committed and +President Obama is committed to preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. It is not a policy +of containment.

Thank you. +CROWLEY: Joining me is the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice. +Madam Ambassador, thank you for joining us. +RICE: Good to be with you, Candy. +CROWLEY: One of the things when I spoke with the Israeli prime minister that struck me was the conviction that he has +that for certain Iran is building on its way to building a nuclear weapon, and his sense of urgency that at this moment +the U.S. needs to set what he calls a ""red line"" for the U.S. +Does the U.S. share the conviction that Iran is, indeed, building a nuclear weapon? And, B, what about the concept of a +red line? +RICE: Well, Candy, the United States is in constant communication with Israel and Israeli intelligence, Israeli policy +makers, the military. We're sharing our assessments every day. And our assessments, our intelligence assessments are +very similar. Obviously, we share a grave concern about Iran pursuing a nuclear weapon. We are determined to prevent +that from happening. President Obama has been absolutely clear, and on this there's absolutely no daylight between the +United States and Israel that we will do what it takes to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. +We are not at that stage yet. They do not have a nuclear weapon. Our shared intelligence assessments is that there is +still a considerable time and space before they will have a nuclear weapon should they make the decision to go for that. +But we've been very clear. The United States is not interested and is not pursuing a policy of containment. President +Obama has been very plain. We will keep all option on the table, including the military option, as necessary, to prevent +Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon. +But, Candy, the fact is we have just seen the imposition of another layer of the toughest sanctions that have ever been +impose Odd a country. In this case, Iran. Their economy is beginning to buckle. Their oil production is down 40 percent. +Their currency has plummeted 40 percent in the last year. Their economy is now shrinking.

And we've +made very clear that the president's bottom line is Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. +CROWLEY: Let me move you to what's gone on in the Middle East in Arab countries and elsewhere. There is a ""New York +Times"" story this morning that suggests that the administration thinks this is a foreshadowing of a fall that will see +sustained instability. Does the administration expect to see these sorts of protests outside U.S. embassies and elsewhere +throughout the fall? +RICE: Well, Candy, first of all, let's recall what has happened in the last several days. There was a hateful video that was +disseminated on the Internet. It had nothing to do with the United States government and it's one that we find +disgusting and reprehensible. It's been offensive to many, many people around the world. +That sparked violence in various parts of the world, including violence directed against western facilities including our +embassies and consulates. That violence is absolutely unacceptable, it's not a response that one can ever condone when +it comes to such a video. And we have been working very closely and, indeed, effectively with the governments in the +region and around the world to secure our personnel, secure our embassy, condemn the violent response to this video. +And, frankly, we've seen these sorts of incidents in the past. We've seen violent responses to ""Satanic Verses."" We've +seen violent responses to the cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed in an evil way. So this is something we've seen +in the past, and we expect that it's possible that these kinds of things could percolate into the future. What we're +focused on is securing our personnel, securing our facilities. +CROWLEY: Do you at this moment feel that U.S. embassies abroad are secure? +RICE: We are doing our utmost to secure our facilities and our personnel and in various vulnerable places. We have +demanded and we are receiving the cooperation of host governments. Host governments have also put out very strong +messages in Libya, in Egypt, in Yemen and Tunisia condemning violence, saying that it's a completely unacceptable +response to such a video. And we feel that we are now in a position doing the maximum that we can to protect our +people. +CROWLEY: Why would one not look at what is going on in the Middle East now and say that the president's outreach to +Muslims, which began at the beginning of his administration in Cairo and elsewhere has not worked because, yes, this +video sparked it, but there is an underlying anti-Americanism that is very evident on the streets. So Why not look at it +and think that this is this outreach has failed? +RICE: For the same reason, Candy, when you look back at history and we had the horrible experience of our facilities and +our personnel being attacked Beirut in 1981, we had the attack on Khobar Towers in the 1990s. We had an attack on our +embassy in Yemen in 2008. There have been such attacks. There have been expressions of hostility towards the west. +CROWLEY: But this was sort of a reset, was it not? It was supposed to be a reset of U.S.-Muslim relations? +RICE: And indeed, in fact, there had been substantial improvements. I have been to Libya and walked the streets of +Benghazi myself. And despite what we saw in that horrific incident where some mob was hijacked ultimately by a +handful of extremists, the United States is extremely popular in Libya and the outpouring of sympathy and support for +Ambassador Stevens and his colleagues from the government, from people is evidence of that. +The fact is, Candy, that this is a turbulent time. It's a time of dramatic change. It's a change that the United States has +backed because we understand that when democracy takes root, when human rights and people's freedom of +expression can be manifested, it may lead to turbulence in the short-term, but over the long-term, that is in the interest +of the United States. +The mobs we've seen on the outside of these embassies are small minority. They're the ones who have largely lost in +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739717 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

They add that there has been no firm response from the UK government, and the initial discussions +have been conducted by officers of the British Special Intelligence Service (SIS M1-6).

Notwithstanding this concern, in the opinion of these individuals, Saif al- +Islam believes that introducing the possibility of a ceasefire and the subsequent negotiations may create +divisions within NATO and weaken their military operations against Qaddaft's forces. +(Source Comment: These sources add that many of Sail al-Islam's advisors do not know if, or to what extent, +the UK Government has shared knowledge of this initiative with the governments of the United States and the +other NATO allies.) +At the same time, sources with access to the operations of the INC military committee state privately that on +June 1, 2011 Libyan intelligence officers detonated a car bomb outside the Tibesti Hotel in the INC capital of +Benghazi.

Also protests against the drone +strikes. In Yemen, you also had arrests and some deaths outside of our U.S. embassy there. How +much longer can Americans expect to see these troubling images and these protests go forward? +MS. RICE: Well, David, we can't predict with any certainty. But let's remember what has transpired +over the last several days. This is a response to a hateful and offensive video that was widely +disseminated throughout the Arab and Muslim world. Obviously, our view is that there is absolutely +no excuse for violence and that-- what has happened is condemnable, but this is a-- a spontaneous +reaction to a video, and it's not dissimilar but, perhaps, on a slightly larger scale than what we have +seen in the past with The Satanic Verses with the cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. Now, the +United States has made very clear and the president has been very plain that our top priority is the +protection of American personnel in our facilities and bringing to justice those who... +GREGORY: All right. +MS RICE: ...attacked our facility in Benghazi. +GREGORY: Well, let's talk-- talk about-- well, you talked about this as spontaneous. Can you say +definitively that the attacks on-- on our consulate in Libya that killed ambassador Stevens and others +there security personnel, that was spontaneous, was it a planned attack? Was there a terrorist +element to it? +MS. RICE: Well, let us-- let me tell you the-- the best information we have at present. First of all, +there's an FBI investigation which is ongoing. And we look to that investigation to give us the +definitive word as to what transpired. But putting together the best information that we have available +to us today our current assessment is that what happened in Benghazi was in fact initially a +spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired hours before in Cairo, almost a copycat of-- of the +demonstrations against our facility in Cairo, which were prompted, of course, by the video. What we +think then transpired in Benghazi is that opportunistic extremist elements came to the consulate as +this was unfolding. They came with heavy weapons which unfortunately are readily available in post +revolutionary Libya. And it escalated into a much more violent episode. Obviously, that's-- that's our +best judgment now. We'll await the results of the investigation. And the president has been very +clear--we'll work with the Libyan authorities to bring those responsible to justice. +GREGORY: Was there a failure here that this administration is responsible for, whether it's an +intelligence failure, a failure to see this coming, or a failure to adequately protect U.S. embassies and +installations from a spontaneous kind of reaction like this? +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739722 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +MS. RICE: David, I don't think so. First of all we had no actionable intelligence to suggest that-- that +any attack on our facility in Benghazi was imminent. In Cairo, we did have indications that there was +the risk that the video might spark some— some protests and our embassy, in fact, acted accordingly, +and had called upon the Egyptian authorities to-- to reinforce our facility. What we have seen as-- +with respect to the security response, obviously we had security personnel in Benghazi, a-- a +significant number, and tragically, among those four that were killed were two of our security +personnel. But what happened, obviously, overwhelmed the security we had in place which is why +the president ordered additional reinforcements to Tripoli and-- and why elsewhere in the world we +have been working with governments to ensure they take up their obligations to protect us and we +reinforce where necessary. +GREGORY: The president and the secretary of state have talked about a mob mentality. That's my +words, not their words, but they talked about the— the tyranny of mobs operating in this part of the +world. Here's the reality, if you look at foreign aid--U.S. direct foreign aid to the two countries +involved here, in Libya and Egypt, this is what you'd see: two hundred million since 2011 to Libya, +over a billion a year to Egypt and yet Americans are seeing these kinds of protests and attacks on our +own diplomats. Would-- what do you say to members of congress who are now weighing whether to +suspend our aid to these countries if this is the response that America gets? +MS. RICE: Well, first of all. David, let's put this in perspective. As I said, this is a response to a-- a +very offensive video. It's not the first time that American facilities have come under attack in the +Middle East, going back to 1982 in-- in Beirut, going back to the Khobar Towers in-- in Saudi Arabia, +or even the attack on our embassy in 2008 in Yemen. +GREGORY: Or Iran in 1979. +MS. RICE: This has-- this has happened in the past, but there-- and so I don't think that-- that we +should misunderstand what this is. The reason we provide aid in Egypt and in Libya is because it +serves American interests because the relationships... +GREGORY: But— but our Americans are not being served if this is the response. +MS. RICE: It serves our interests to have Egypt willing and able to— to maintain its peace treaty with +Israel, it servers our interest for Egypt to continue to be a strong partner. Now, let's be clear, the +government, once President Obama called President Morsi, immediately in Egypt the security forces +came out and have provided very significant protection. Same in Tunisia, same in Libya, same in +Yemen. And all of these leaders have very forcefully conveyed their condemnation of what has +transpired. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739722 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

This from an ally that we give over a +billion dollars? +MS. RICE: What has happened in fact is that the Egyptian government has come out and protected +our facilities. Our embassy is open today, things are calm. And Morsi has repeatedly been clear in +his condemnation of-- of what has occurred. We-- we are in these partnerships, David, over the long- +term. We think that-- that— despite this very bumpy path we're on and the very disturbing images +we've seen, it's in the United States fundamental interest that people have the ability to choose their +own governments, that the governments be democratic and free. That's in our long-term best +interest. +GREGORY: You know that this„. +MS. RICE: We need to reinforce that with our assistance. +GREGORY: We are in the middle of a heated presidential campaign, there are different foreign +policy visions. That's why we wanted to dedicate the hour to this today to really understand these +different views, Mitt Romney spoke out this week, he criticized the administration, talked about +whether the United States was apologizing for some of the initial response to this. These were his +comments this week. +(Videotape; Wednesday) +MR. MITT ROMNEY: The administration was wrong to stand by a statement sympathizing with those +who had breached our embassy in Egypt instead of condemning their actions. I think it's a-- a-- a +terrible course to-- for America to-- to stand in apology for our values. +(End videotape) +GREGORY: Our embassies did not stand up for speech— free speech in this initial response to this +violence. And the Republican charge is that it's weakness on the part of this administration that +invites this kind of chaos, that the administration has not been tough enough on radical extremists +that are beginning to take root in these countries. How do you respond to that +MS. RICE: First of all, I think the American people and certainly our diplomats and-- and +development experts who are putting their lives on the line around the world every day expect from +our leadership unity in times of challenge and strong, steady, steadfast leadership of the sort that +President Obama has been providing. With respect to this, I think, vacuous charge of weakness, +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739722 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

We have +decimated at Qaeda. Osama bin Laden is dead. He said we would end the war responsibly in +Iraq. We've done that. He has restored relationships around the world. I spend every day up at the +United Nations where I have to interact with 192 other countries. I know how well the United States is +viewed. I know that our standing is much improved and it's translated into important support for +strong American positions, for example with sanctions against Iran. +GREGORY: Was it inappropriate for Governor Romney to level the criticism he leveled? +MS. RICE: I'm not going to get into politics, David. That's not my role in this job. But I think the +American people welcome and appreciate strong, steady, unified leadership, bipartisan in times of +challenge. And for those men and women in our diplomatic service, including those we tragically lost, +they look to our leadership to be unified and responsible. +GREGORY: Let's talk about another area where the administration is on the defensive in terms of +leadership in the world, and that is the nuclear threat from Iran. Another area of tension between the +United States and Israel. In just a couple of minutes we will show our interview with the prime +minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu. And our viewers will see that. One aspect is how close Iran +is getting to becoming a nuclear power. I asked him about that. I want to show you a piece of the +interview and get your reaction to it. +(Videotape) +PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU (Prime Minister of Israel): I can tell you, David, that Iran +has been placed with some clear red lines on a few matters, and they have avoided crossing +them. So I think that as they get closer and closer and closer to the achievement of the weapons- +grade material, and they're very close, they're six months away from being about 90 percent of +having the enriched uranium for an atom bomb, I think that you have to place that red line before +them now, before it's— it's too late. +GREGORY: As the prime minister of Israel, has Iran crossed your red line? +MR. NETANYAHU: Well, the way I would say it, David, is they are in the red zone. You know, they +are in the last 20 yards. And you can't let them cross that goal line. You can't let them score a +touchdown, because that would have unbelievable consequences, grievous consequences, for the +peace and security of us all-- of the world really. +(End videotape) +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739722 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Our bottom line, if you want to call it a red +line, president's bottom line has been that Iran will not acquire a nuclear weapon and we will take no +option off the table to ensure that it does not acquire a nuclear weapon, including the military option. +GREGORY: The prime minister says... +MS. RICE: But... +GREGORY: ...they are acquiring. +MS. RICE: ...he's talking about a-- a red zone which is a new concept... +GREGORY: No, no, but he's talking about how close they are to actually becoming a nuclear power-- +having to develop a capacity to become a nuclear power. +MS. RICE: They're not there yet. They are not there yet. And our assessment is, and-- and we +share this regularly with our Israeli counterparts in the intelligence and defense community, that there +is time and space for the pressure we are mounting, which is unprecedented in terms of sanctions, to +still yield results. This is not imminent. The window is not infinite, but let's be clear—the sanctions +that— that are now in place reached their high point in July. The-- the Iranian economy is +suffering. It's shrinking for the first time. Negative one percent growth. The amount of production of +Iranian oil has dropped 40 percent over the last several months. Their currency has plummeted 40 +percent over the last several months. This pressure is even to use the Iranian's own words crippling. +GREGORY: But can you say... +MS. RICE: And we think... +GREGORY: ...that President Obama's strategy to keep Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon almost +at the end of his first term is succeeding or failing? +MS. RICE: David, what is clear is Iran does not have a nuclear weapon. And that Iran is more +isolated than ever internationally. The economic pressure it is facing is much greater than +ever. When President Obama came to office the international community was divided about +Iran. And Iran was internally very united. The exact opposite is the case today. The international +community is united. We just had another strong resolution out of the IAEA Board of Governors.

SUSAN RICE (U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations): Thank you, good to be here. +GREGORY: The images as you well know are jarring to Americans watching all of this play out this +week, and we'll share the map of all of this turmoil with ourviewers to show the scale of it across not +just the Arab world, but the entire Islamic world and flashpoints as well. In Egypt, of course, the +protests outside the U.S. embassy there that Egyptian officials were slow to put down. This weekend +in Pakistan, protests as well there. More anti-American rage. Also protests against the drone +strikes. In Yemen, you also had arrests and some deaths outside of our U.S. embassy there. How +much longer can Americans expect to see these troubling images and these protests go forward? +MS. RICE: Well, David, we can't predict with any certainty. But let's remember what has transpired +over the last several days. This is a response to a hateful and offensive video that was widely +disseminated throughout the Arab and Muslim world. Obviously, our view is that there is absolutely +no excuse for violence and that— what has happened is condemnable, but this is a-- a spontaneous +reaction to a video, and it's not dissimilar but, perhaps, on a slightly larger scale than what we have +seen in the past with The Satanic Verses with the cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. Now, the +United States has made very clear and the president has been very plain that our top priority is the +protection of American personnel in our facilities and bringing to justice those who... +GREGORY: All right. +MS. RICE: ...attacked our facility in Benghazi. +GREGORY: Well, let's talk-- talk about-- well, you talked about this as spontaneous. Can you say +definitively that the attacks on-- on our consulate in Libya that killed ambassador Stevens and others +there security personnel, that was spontaneous, was it a planned attack? Was there a terrorist +element to it? +MS. RICE: Well, let us-- let me tell you the— the best information we have at present. First of all, +there's an FBI investigation which is ongoing. And we look to that investigation to give us the +definitive word as to what transpired. But putting together the best information that we have available +to us today our current assessment is that what happened in Benghazi was in fact initially a +spontaneous reaction to what had just transpired hours before in Cairo, almost a copycat of-- of the +demonstrations against our facility in Cairo, which were prompted, of course, by the video. What we +think then transpired in Benghazi is that opportunistic extremist elements came to the consulate as +this was unfolding. They came with heavy weapons which unfortunately are readily available in post +revolutionary Libya. And it escalated into a much more violent episode. Obviously, that's-- that's our +best judgment now. We'll await the results of the investigation. And the president has been very +clear--we'll work with the Libyan authorities to bring those responsible to justice. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739728 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

RICE: David, I don't think so. First of all we had no actionable intelligence to suggest that— that +any attack on our facility in Benghazi was imminent. In Cairo, we did have indications that there was +the risk that the video might spark some-- some protests and our embassy, in fact, acted accordingly, +and had called upon the Egyptian authorities to-- to reinforce our facility. What we have seen as-- +with respect to the security response, obviously we had security personnel in Benghazi, a-- a +significant number, and tragically, among those four that were killed were two of our security +personnel. But what happened, obviously, overwhelmed the security we had in place which is why +the president ordered additional reinforcements to Tripoli and-- and why elsewhere in the world we +have been working with governments to ensure they take up their obligations to protect us and we +reinforce where necessary +GREGORY: The president and the secretary of state have talked about a mob mentality. That's my +words, not their words, but they talked about the-- the tyranny of mobs operating in this part of the +world. Here's the reality, if you look at foreign aid--U.S. direct foreign aid to the two countries +involved here, in Libya and Egypt, this is what you'd see: two hundred million since 2011 to Libya, +over a billion a year to Egypt and yet Americans are seeing these kinds of protests and attacks on our +own diplomats. Would-- what do you say to members of congress who are now weighing whether to +suspend our aid to these countries if this is the response that America gets? +MS. RICE: Well, first of all, David, let's put this in perspective. As I said, this is a response to a-- a +very offensive video. It's not the first time that American facilities have come under attack in the +Middle East, going back to 1982 in-- in Beirut, going back to the Khobar Towers in-- in Saudi Arabia, +or even the attack on our embassy in 2008 in Yemen. +GREGORY: Or Iran in 1979. +MS. RICE: This has-- this has happened in the past, but there-- and so I don't think that-- that we +should misunderstand what this is. The reason we provide aid in Egypt and in Libya is because it +serves American interests because the relationships... +GREGORY: But-- but our Americans are not being served if this is the response. +MS. RICE: It serves our interests to have Egypt willing and able to-- to maintain its peace treaty with +Israel, it servers our interest for Egypt to continue to be a strong partner. Now, let's be clear, the +government, once President Obama called President Morsi, immediately in Egypt the security forces +came out and have provided very significant protection.

In Arabic they +encourage protests, lii English they said stop the protests. This from an ally that we give over a +billion dollars? +MS. RICE: What has happened in fact is that the Egyptian government has come out and protected +our facilities. Our embassy is open today, things are calm. And Morsi has repeatedly been clear in +his condemnation of-- of what has occurred. We-- we are in these partnerships, David, over the long- +term. We think that-- that-- despite this very bumpy path we're on and the very disturbing images +we've seen, it's in the United States fundamental interest that people have the ability to choose their +own governments, that the governments be democratic and free. That's in our long-term best +interest. +GREGORY: You know that this... +MS. RICE: We need to reinforce that with our assistance. +GREGORY: We are in the middle of a heated presidential campaign, there are different foreign +policy visions. That's why we wanted to dedicate the hour to this today to really understand these +different views. Mitt Romney spoke out this week, he criticized the administration, talked about +whether the United States was apologizing for some of the initial response to this.

RICE: First of all, I think the American people and certainly our diplomats and-- and +development experts who are putting their lives on the line around the world every day expect from +our leadership unity in times of challenge and strong, steady, steadfast leadership of the sort that +President Obama has been providing. With respect to this, I think, vacuous charge of weakness, +let's-- lets recall, I think, the American people fully understand that this is an administration led by a +president who said when he ran for office that he would take the fight to at Qaeda. We have +decimated at Qaeda. Osama bin Laden is dead. He said we would end the war responsibly in +Iraq. We've done that. He has restored relationships around the world. I spend every day up at the +United Nations where I have to interact with 192 other countries. I know how well the United States is +viewed. I know that our standing is much improved and it's translated into important support for +strong American positions, for example with sanctions against Iran. +GREGORY: Was it inappropriate for Governor Romney to level the criticism he leveled? +MS. RICE: I'm not going to get into politics, David. That's not my role in this job. But I think the +American people welcome and appreciate strong, steady, unified leadership, bipartisan in times of +challenge. And for those men and women in our diplomatic service, including those we tragically lost, +they look to our leadership to be unified and responsible. +GREGORY: Let's talk about another area where the administration is on the defensive in terms of +leadership in the world, and that is the nuclear threat from Iran. Another area of tension between the +United States and Israel. In just a couple of minutes we will show our interview with the prime +minister of Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu. And our viewers will see that. One aspect is how close Iran +is getting to becoming a nuclear power. I asked him about that. I want to show you a piece of the +interview and get your reaction to it. +(Videotape) +PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU (Prime Minister of Israel): I can tell you, David, that Iran +has been placed with some clear red lines on a few matters, and they have avoided crossing +them.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +The Republicans seem to be ""winning"" in political terms, largely because so few Americans in think tanks and +the media realize that virtually all intelligence and security post-mortems on such events uncover the same +problems. Once the event is over and clear patterns emerge, there are always warning indicators that could have +been heeded in retrospect. If one ignores that vast amount of ""noise"" from other conflicting indicators, and +looks back with 20-20 hindsight, every such event is always an ""intelligence"" failure. +Moreover, competent security officers always are asking for more support and coverage in any area where risks +exist. There is never enough security even in the best funded times, and these are not the best funded times. +Almost every aspect of U.S. diplomacy has been subject to budget cuts at a time of upheaval in the Arab world +and global economic crisis. +A recent article by Dana Milbank in the Washington Post notes that the same Republican dominated House that +now critiques events in Libya cut State Department operations by $300 million in 2009 and eliminated funds for +some 30 more security positions along with it. The House cut security funding by $128 million in FY2011 and +$331 million in FY2012, although the Senate restored $88 million. Under at least one of Congressman Ryan's +proposals to amend the budget, State Department funding would be cut by an additional 20% million in 2014 – +which means another $400 million cut in security. +It is no tribute to the Obama Administration that it did far too little to push back against these cuts, and even +less to articulate the need to fund stronger U.S. ""expeditionary diplomacy"" efforts. Indeed, at a time when far +too many countries are in crisis and the U.S. faces increased challenges to its regional goals, more funds, +stronger country teams, increased humanitarian aid, beefed-up military assistance, and on-the-scene diplomacy +is needed to support U.S. interests. +In fairness to Secretary Clinton and the large number of dedicated diplomatic professionals, State has tried to +deal with these challenges by refocusing its diminishing resources, strengthening its ability to provide on-the- +scene aid, and creating civil efforts that can deal with crises like Syria and the need to provide stronger U.S. aid +and advisory teams if dictators like Assad fall. +So far, both the Republican ""gotcha"" efforts and the Administration's failure to make the case for strong +""expeditionary diplomacy"" have totally failed to serve the U.S. national interest, and have been the worst +possible memorial to Ambassador Chris Stevens, a man who clearly knew that America's success required risk +taking and action in the field. +It is time we come to grips with the world we actually live in. We can't deal with the political upheavals in a +single Arab country, the impact of Transition in Afghanistan, the internal struggle for the future of Islam, +energy and trade security, the various national crises in Latin America and Africa, or the competition for the +future of Asia by speeches in the U.S., quick visits by senior U.S. officials, outside radio and TV programs, and +empty rhetoric about taking stronger stands or exporting U.S. values. +We need strong country teams, and teams that are active and take risks. We need men and women on the scene +who accept the realities on the ground in the countries they operate in. We need strong country teams that can +work with the full range of factions, provide help in forming political parties and changing governance, provide +carefully selected aid and advisory efforts to catalyze reform, and provide military and security advisors that +can help countries move towards stability without excessive repression and threatening their neighbors. +We need to protect our embassies, consulates, and military advisory groups, but we cannot afford to turn them +in to fortresses that lock our diplomats, aid teams, and military on the scene away from events and the people +they are trying to influence.

Every one of them will be a tragedy. But we cannot let either false +economies or extremist and terrorist threats defeat such efforts. The cost of properly funded expeditionary +diplomacy —people, military and civil aid funds, and fully funded security efforts —is going to be cheaper +even on a global level than losing contact and U.S. influence in a single country like Egypt, or being unprepared +to deal with the flow of events in a nation like Syria or Iraq. +It is also already all too clear that extremist elements throughout the world realize that attacks on U.S. diplomats +and military advisors or partners are one of the cheapest and most effective ways to gain immediate visibility, +strike at the heart of U.S. public opinion, drive the U.S. out of a country, or limit its influence.

""Soft"" power cannot survive where it is not protected by +""hard"" power. Moreover, there are few if any crises cases where advice and aid in politics, governance, +economics and rule of law can be separated from a matching need for advice and aid in addressing military, +security, counterterrorism, and national police concerns. +In short, we do not need ""gotcha"" post-mortems or half-formed defenses. The tribute we really owe +Ambassador Chris Stevens is to undertake the following eight steps: +• Understand that diplomacy will often be a form of asymmetric warfare in crisis countries, particularly +those with crumbling regimes or new unstable governments. Accept the fact there can be no success +without taking increased risk and suffering casualties. +• Set realistic and achievable goals country-by-country and give the ambassador and country team as +much discretion as possible. Don't set impossible goals for instant democracy, human rights, rule of law +or stability. Accept the need for evolutionary action and ""doing it their way."" Don't try one size fits all +ideological solutions or efforts from Washington. +• Stop focusing on narrow budget cuts and examine the costs and benefits of effective, well-funded +country team efforts. If properly funded diplomacy and country team efforts only win support for the +U.S. in one crisis country over the next decade, or avoid even one armed intervention, they will still +more than pay for their costs in terms of the U.S. budget, and the overall effort will be immensely more +valuable in terms of gains (and tax revenues) in U.S. trade and investment. +• Reexamine how to create all of the elements of ""expeditionary diplomacy"" efforts, including strong +country teams, and the ability to suddenly boost teams in countries in crises, with the full range of tools +an ambassador needs. This includes adequate staff, operating and security funds, and flexible aid funds +that can be applied quickly to deal with changing needs and circumstances. +• Fully fund security but find the best ways to change existing procedures to emphasize mobility and +move to high-risk areas. Refocus intelligence to help reduce risks, and restructure protection efforts to +provide specially trained and equipped U.S. and foreign national security. Stop doing pointless security +post-mortem blame games and focus on the future. +• Reward and encourage necessary risk taking. Make it clear that this is a key part of a successful career +path, that it will be fully supported by State and other agencies deploying U.S. personnel, and reorient +security efforts in country to protect such efforts in the best ways possible rather than creating rules that +either make effective action impossible or force diplomats and advisors to violate such rules without +protection.

While we had no idea that our trip would correspond with significant +military advances in the east and the start of the coordinated Tripoli uprising dubbed ""Operation Mermaid Dawn,"" the +timing gave us the opportunity to note the contrast between the relative bureaucratic quiet here compared to hyped-up +activity in western Libya. Clearly, some coordination is underway between Benghazi and the west: Ali Tarhouni, recently +promoted to Deputy Prime Minister In a still-to-be-completed cabinet reshufle, previewed the Tripoli uprising with us, +down almost to the minute. Yet one feels that, to a large extent, TNC officials are observers and chroniclers rather than +the authors of the unfolding developments to the west. (In a telling anecdote, just after confiding in us the plans for +Tripoli about to unfold, Tarhouni turned off his ringing cell phone, to concentrate on talking to us in a leisurely +manner.) What TNC officials told us to a large extent was sensible and mostly reassuring in its content -- and the TNC +just issued a directive reiterating its policy to treat combatants according to the Geneva conventions and observe human +rights -- but their comments fell mostly in the category of passive analysis rather than aggressive forward +thinking. Washington has task forces in focused on Tripoli; Benghazi does not +While there's a sense in the air that the final battles have begun, that palpable anticipation does not seem to have +translated into the type of stepped-up bureaucratic activity that one would expect. After meeting with us for nearly two +hours on Thursday, TNC Executive Committee chair (and PM equivalent) Mahmoud Jibril returned to Doha rather than +head any kind of war room here. I was on the ground far longer than Jibril, giving another cameo appearance +here. Tarhouni confided that there is no plan for when or how the TNC would relocate quickly to Tripoli, should Tripoli +fall. TNC Chairman Mustafa Abduljalil (who remains by all accounts a unifying figure here) is a humble, retiring leader, +which after Qadhafi's flamboyance is part of the attraction for Libyans but which does not make him naturally think of +how to project INC authority and symbolism quickly to the newly liberated areas. The question is when Tripoli falls, do +the extensive plans that the TNC has made about the post Qadhafi transitional structures have any relevance for +Tripoli? I do not want to overplay this: the flags being raised in the western towns are the flags used here. Our visit to +the military command center demonstrated that there is active information flow (if not exactly command and control) +passing between east and west. Tarhouni and others who visit western towns, usually from Tunis, describe support +there and from tribal leaders across Libya. No other groups are claiming to have established or planned for an +alternative civilian authority to compete with the TNC. Still, in our engagement with TNC officials, we will need to +remind them continually of the imperative to nurture their legitimacy and authority and to prevent a political vacuum +that others could fill -- especially after Tripoli falls and the INC is here, not there. +We've talked a lot about Tripoli and whether a battle for the capital could be avoided, which we argued would be the +best solution. One of the TNC's assets is the moral distinction between what the Libya that the TNC aspires to promote +and how Qadhafi has treated Libya's citizens. The world's attention will focus on a battle for Tripoli, we cautioned, and +acts of brutality and revenge and potential internal fights among competing militias will blur that moral distinction even +more than the assassination of INC Chief of Staff Abdulfatah Younis already did. The damage to the TNC's credibility +could be irreparable. We also noted that a TNC led negotiation that succeeds in winning Tripoli without a fight would +underscore the TNC leadership far more dramatically than a successful militia assault only vaguely connected to the +Benghazi leadership. The TNC officials heard us out patiently, but they clearly were not in the mood to negotiate. They +feel confident about the current military situation, and they remain convinced that Qadhafi simply will not give up no +matter how high the pressure. If anything, their positions have hardened in recent weeks, with Abduljalil telling us that +the TNC will no longer contemplate Qadhafi staying in Libya once he is out of power. Saif Qadhafi is seen in the same +category as his father. I do not believe that anything short of a significant change -- Qadhafi's departure, a military +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739732 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Tarhouni also +acknowledged with his trademark candor that, to the Libyan people right now, negotiations would appear weak and +not a satisfactory climax to the revolution. They do have a point that, despite signs of desperation around Qadhafi (e.g., +Mohammed Ismail's multiple attempts to contact Gene Cretz and me), there is no indication that Qadhafi himself is +prepared to throw in the towel. There is real fear that, should Qadhafi somehow make it from Tripoli to Sebha, a guerilla +war could persist for years, with supplies and mercernaries smuggled across the Saharan border. +Among other topics, we pushed the INC officials hard on starting a high-profile discussion immediately on the +reconciliation which is part of the TNC's platform. We noted that the many victims of Qadhafi's 42-year rule will be less +likely to pursue individual acts of revenge If they are assured that there will be some form to address grievances through +rule-of-law accountability. The same message should also appeal to average Libyans who for whatever reason remained +as part of Qadhafi's regime to the end but who have no blood on their hands and might otherwise fear retribution.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +RELEASE IN +FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Sunday, August 21, 2011 9:26 AM +To: +Subject: Jeff update +Contrast between Benghazi and reports from the West: Here in Benghazi since Thursday, I have joined our +representative, Chris Stevens, in meetings with a large number of representatives from the TNC, civil society, UN +organizations and NG0s, and the diplomatic corps. While we had no idea that our trip would correspond with significant +military advances in the east and the start of the coordinated Tripoli uprising dubbed ""Operation Mermaid Dawn,"" the +timing gave us the opportunity to note the contrast between the relative bureaucratic quiet here compared to hyped-up +activity in western Libya. Clearly, some coordination is underway between Benghazi and the west: Ali Tarhouni, recently +promoted to Deputy Prime Minister In a still-to-be-completed cabinet reshufle, previewed the Tripoli uprising with us, +down almost to the minute. Yet one feels that, to a large extent, TNC officials are observers and chroniclers rather than +the authors of the unfolding developments to the west. (In a telling anecdote, just after confiding in us the plans for +Tripoli about to unfold, Tarhouni turned off his ringing cell phone, to concentrate on talking to us in a leisurely +manner.) What TNC officials told us to a large extent was sensible and mostly reassuring in its content -- and the TNC +just issued a directive reiterating its policy to treat combatants according to the Geneva conventions and observe human +rights -- but their comments fell mostly in the category of passive analysis rather than aggressive forward +thinking. Washington has task forces in focused on Tripoli; Benghazi does not +While there's a sense in the air that the final battles have begun, that palpable anticipation does not seem to have +translated into the type of stepped-up bureaucratic activity that one would expect. After meeting with us for nearly two +hours on Thursday, TNC Executive Committee chair (and PM equivalent) Mahmoud Jibril returned to Doha rather than +head any kind of war room here. I was on the ground far longer than Jibril, giving another cameo appearance +here. Tarhouni confided that there is no plan for when or how the TNC would relocate quickly to Tripoli, should Tripoli +fall. TNC Chairman Mustafa Abduljalil (who remains by all accounts a unifying figure here) is a humble, retiring leader, +which after Qadhafi's flamboyance is part of the attraction for Libyans but which does not make him naturally think of +how to project INC authority and symbolism quickly to the newly liberated areas. The question is when Tripoli falls, do +the extensive plans that the TNC has made about the post Qadhafi transitional structures have any relevance for +Tripoli? I do not want to overplay this: the flags being raised in the western towns are the flags used here. Our visit to +the military command center demonstrated that there is active information flow (if not exactly command and control) +passing between east and west. Tarhouni and others who visit western towns, usually from Tunis, describe support +there and from tribal leaders across Libya. No other groups are claiming to have established or planned for an +alternative civilian authority to compete with the TNC. Still, in our engagement with TNC officials, we will need to +remind them continually of the imperative to nurture their legitimacy and authority and to prevent a political vacuum +that others could fill -- especially after Tripoli falls and the INC is here, not there. +We've talked a lot about Tripoli and whether a battle for the capital could be avoided, which we argued would be the +best solution. One of the TNC's assets is the moral distinction between what the Libya that the TNC aspires to promote +and how Qadhafi has treated Libya's citizens. The world's attention will focus on a battle for Tripoli, we cautioned, and +acts of brutality and revenge and potential internal fights among competing militias will blur that moral distinction even +more than the assassination of INC Chief of Staff Abdulfatah Younis already did. The damage to the TNC's credibility +could be irreparable. We also noted that a TNC led negotiation that succeeds in winning Tripoli without a fight would +underscore the TNC leadership far more dramatically than a successful militia assault only vaguely connected to the +Benghazi leadership. The TNC officials heard us out patiently, but they clearly were not in the mood to negotiate. They +feel confident about the current military situation, and they remain convinced that Qadhafi simply will not give up no +matter how high the pressure. If anything, their positions have hardened in recent weeks, with Abduljalil telling us that +the TNC will no longer contemplate Qadhafi staying in Libya once he is out of power. Saif Qadhafi is seen in the same +category as his father. I do not believe that anything short of a significant change -- Qadhafi's departure, a military +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739732 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Tarhouni also +acknowledged with his trademark candor that, to the Libyan people right now, negotiations would appear weak and +not a satisfactory climax to the revolution. They do have a point that, despite signs of desperation around Qadhafi (e.g., +Mohammed Ismail's multiple attempts to contact Gene Cretz and me), there is no indication that Qadhafi himself is +prepared to throw in the towel. There is real fear that, should Qadhafi somehow make it from Tripoli to Sebha, a guerilla +war could persist for years, with supplies and mercernaries smuggled across the Saharan border. +Among other topics, we pushed the INC officials hard on starting a high-profile discussion immediately on the +reconciliation which is part of the TNC's platform. We noted that the many victims of Qadhafi's 42-year rule will be less +likely to pursue individual acts of revenge If they are assured that there will be some form to address grievances through +rule-of-law accountability. The same message should also appeal to average Libyans who for whatever reason remained +as part of Qadhafi's regime to the end but who have no blood on their hands and might otherwise fear retribution. INC +officials refer approvingly to the South African and Moroccan models, and they reiterated their commitment for an +inclusive process for Libya's future that welcomes all but the most notorious individuals around Qadhafi.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +The Republicans seem to be ""winning"" in political terms, largely because so few Americans in think tanks and +the media realize that virtually all intelligence and security post-mortems on such events uncover the same +problems. Once the event is over and clear patterns emerge, there are always warning indicators that could have +been heeded in retrospect. If one ignores that vast amount of ""noise"" from other conflicting indicators, and +looks back with 20-20 hindsight, every such event is always an ""intelligence"" failure. +Moreover, competent security officers always are asking for more support and coverage in any area where risks +exist. There is never enough security even in the best funded times, and these are not the best funded times. +Almost every aspect of U.S. diplomacy has been subject to budget cuts at a time of upheaval in the Arab world +and global economic crisis. +A recent article by Dana Milbank in the Washington Post notes that the same Republican dominated House that +now critiques events in Libya cut State Department operations by $300 million in 2009 and eliminated funds for +some 30 more security positions along with it. The House cut security funding by $128 million in FY2011 and +$33! million in FY2012, although the Senate restored $88 million. Under at least one of Congressman Ryan's +proposals to amend the budget, State Department funding would be cut by an additional 20% million in 2014 – +which means another $400 million cut in security. +It is no tribute to the Obama Administration that it did far too little to push back against these cuts, and even +less to articulate the need to fund stronger U.S. ""expeditionary diplomacy"" efforts. Indeed, at a time when far +too many countries are in crisis and the U.S. faces increased challenges to its regional goals, more funds, +stronger country teams, increased humanitarian aid, beefed-up military assistance, and on-the-scene diplomacy +is needed to support U.S. interests. +In fairness to Secretary Clinton and the large number of dedicated diplomatic professionals, State has tried to +deal with these challenges by refocusing its diminishing resources, strengthening its ability to provide on-the- +scene aid, and creating civil efforts that can deal with crises like Syria and the need to provide stronger U.S. aid +and advisory teams if dictators like Assad fall. +So far, both the Republican ""gotcha"" efforts and the Administration's failure to make the case for strong +""expeditionary diplomacy"" have totally failed to serve the U.S. national interest, and have been the worst +possible memorial to Ambassador Chris Stevens, a man who clearly knew that America's success required risk +taking and action in the field. +It is time we come to grips with the world we actually live in. We can't deal with the political upheavals in a +single Arab country, the impact of Transition in Afghanistan, the internal struggle for the future of Islam, +energy and trade security, the various national crises in Latin America and Africa, or the competition for the +future of Asia by speeches in the U.S., quick visits by senior U.S. officials, outside radio and TV programs, and +empty rhetoric about taking stronger stands or exporting U.S. values. +We need strong country teams, and teams that are active and take risks. We need men and women on the scene +who accept the realities on the ground in the countries they operate in. We need strong country teams that can +work with the full range of factions, provide help in forming political parties and changing governance, provide +carefully selected aid and advisory efforts to catalyze reform, and provide military and security advisors that +can help countries move towards stability without excessive repression and threatening their neighbors. +We need to protect our embassies, consulates, and military advisory groups, but we cannot afford to turn them +in to fortresses that lock our diplomats, aid teams, and military on the scene away from events and the people +they are trying to influence.

Every one of them will be a tragedy. But we cannot let either false +economies or extremist and terrorist threats defeat such efforts. The cost of properly funded expeditionary +diplomacy —people, military and civil aid funds, and fully funded security efforts —is going to be cheaper +even on a global level than losing contact and U.S. influence in a single country like Egypt, or being unprepared +to deal with the flow of events in a nation like Syria or Iraq. +It is also already all too clear that extremist elements throughout the world realize that attacks on U.S. diplomats +and military advisors or partners are one of the cheapest and most effective ways to gain immediate visibility, +strike at the heart of U.S. public opinion, drive the U.S. out of a country, or limit its influence. No one needs to +defeat U.S. military forces — which can only be deployed to a handful of countries at most —if they can expel +or paralyze American diplomacy, support for U.S. businesses and investment, support for U.S. NG0s, and +effective U.S. military and security advisory efforts. +This threat is already all too real in far too many parts of the world, and it has effectively eliminated one of the +key differences between ""hard"" and ""soft"" power. ""Soft"" power cannot survive where it is not protected by +""hard"" power. Moreover, there are few if any crises cases where advice and aid in politics, governance, +economics and rule of law can be separated from a matching need for advice and aid in addressing military, +security, counterterrorism, and national police concerns. +In short, we do not need ""gotcha"" post-mortems or half-formed defenses. The tribute we really owe +Ambassador Chris Stevens is to undertake the following eight steps: +• Understand that diplomacy will often be a form of asymmetric warfare in crisis countries, particularly +those with crumbling regimes or new unstable governments. Accept the fact there can be no success +without taking increased risk and suffering casualties. +• Set realistic and achievable goals country-by-country and give the ambassador and country team as +much discretion as possible. Don't set impossible goals for instant democracy, human rights, rule of law +or stability. Accept the need for evolutionary action and ""doing it their way."" Don't try one size fits all +ideological solutions or efforts from Washington. +• Stop focusing on narrow budget cuts and examine the costs and benefits of effective, well-funded +country team efforts. If properly funded diplomacy and country team efforts only win support for the +U.S. in one crisis country over the next decade, or avoid even one armed intervention, they will still +more than pay for their costs in terms of the U.S. budget, and the overall effort will be immensely more +valuable in terms of gains (and tax revenues) in U.S. trade and investment. +• Reexamine how to create all of the elements of ""expeditionary diplomacy"" efforts, including strong +country teams, and the ability to suddenly boost teams in countries in crises, with the full range of tools +an ambassador needs. This includes adequate staff, operating and security funds, and flexible aid funds +that can be applied quickly to deal with changing needs and circumstances. +Fully fund security but find the best ways to change existing procedures to emphasize mobility and +move to high-risk areas. Refocus intelligence to help reduce risks, and restructure protection efforts to +provide specially trained and equipped U.S. and foreign national security. Stop doing pointless security +post-mortem blame games and focus on the future. +• Reward and encourage necessary risk taking. Make it clear that this is a key part of a successful career +path, that it will be fully supported by State and other agencies deploying U.S. personnel, and reorient +security efforts in country to protect such efforts in the best ways possible rather than creating rules that +either make effective action impossible or force diplomats and advisors to violate such rules without +protection.

Stevens in Benghazi, based on largely on info from acting PM Afi Tarhouni and acting FM +Salah Bishari: +• TNC caretaker cabinet/members were up until 4am following events in Tripoli and discussing plans for +the coming days. Tarhouni said the TNC has been in constant communication with its people in Tripoli, +including both fighters and those entrusted with implementing the stabilization plans. Rebels in Tripoli, +in coordination with the TNC, have begun to set up checkpoints inside the city and guard public +buildings +• TNC chairman Abd al Jalil and PM Jibril made statements to the media last night, urging people to +refrain from revenge attacks and destruction of public buildings. +• There has so far been ""no bloodbath"" or serious looting. +• The capture of Saif al-Islam al-Qadhafi and Mohamed al-Qadhafi is significant. The TNC, including +Abd al-Jalil himself, intervened with rebels surrounding Mohamed's house to ensure that they did not +harm him. They understood that it would be harmful to the revolution and the TNC if he were +killed. These events were captured live by Al Jazeera in interviews with Mohamed. Both brothers are +in rebel custody (at this time, it is unclear to us exactly who is holding them, however). +• Per Tarhouni, the next steps are: 1) find Muammar Qadhafi; 2) issue a statement announcing the end of +the Qadhaii regime and the start of the interim period under the TNC (TNC staff have begun drafting +this statement already); 3) insure the delivery of essential services and commodities (esp. addressing the +acute shortages of fuel, children's milk, and medication for blood pressure and diabetes); and 4) move +the TNC to Tripoli. +• Regarding the move to Tripoli, Tarhouni said security arrangements would need to be made before they +could send the TNC leadership to the capital. We have heard from another contact that some TNC +members are already making plans to fly to Misurata and the Western Mountains, possibly as early as +today, and from there drive to Tripoli. +• Request for assistance: Tarhouni, who also holds US citizenship, said the items listed above (gas, diesel, +baby milk, and medicine) are urgently needed in Tripoli and recommended that the USG ship those +items directly to Zawiya's Port and publicize such assistance as soon as feasible (in coordination with +the TNC). Ile said this would bring the US even more goodwill than it has already earned here. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739736 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Zidan is skeptical about this idea, fearing that Libya could become +too dependent on Egypt for technical expertise. He believes that Western firms provide the +opportunity to maintain independence and balance in the oil sector. +3.(Source Comment: In the opinion of this source, Zidan, who served at the Libyan Mission to +India for two years before defecting to the West in 1980, joining Magariaf and his anti- Qadd.afi +National Front for the Salvation of Libya (NFSL), plans to work with all of the parties and groups in +the GNC. At the same time his history gives the Prime Minister a relationship with the President and +a degree of credibility that will be helpful as he forms his cabinet. According to this source, Zidan +wants to move quickly to name a cabinet. His position is also strengthened by the fact that he worked +on behalf of the National Transitional Council (NTC) during the 2011Civil War, organizing +international support for the rebels. According to this sensitive source, Ziclan's immediate concerns +include organizing the investigation of the September ii attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, +and the resulting assassination of Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans. Zidan +is already under pressure from the U.S. Government to move the investigation along as quickly as +possible.) +4. In the opinion of this individual Zidan realizes that the attack on the U.S. consulate is now +an international symbol of the security issues at play in Libya, and that the use of pro-government +militias to provide security is not a long term solution to the problem. Zidan believes that the idea +that the government must ask for support from the powerful militias from Misrata and Zintan +undermines his efforts to bring order and centralized authority to the country. Zidan believes that he +can address this problem in part by developing a working majority in the GNC drawing on moderates +and independents, who will support his efforts to establish a modern Islamic regime that can work +with the West, particularly International Oil Companies. That said, he cautions his advisors that he +does not anticipate real success in this regard until the latter part of 2013. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739744 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Marines in dress uniforms +carried to four black hearses the flag-draped caskets of the Americans, including Winchester native Glen Doherty, killed +at our consulate in Libya. President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton led the solemn ceremony, Clinton +speaking before him. +""If the last few days teach us anything, let it be this: that this work and the men and women who risk their lives to do it +are at the heart of what makes America great and good,"" said Clinton, her voice at times uneven with emotion for the +dead men she had employed. +Then she said: ""So we will wipe away our tears, stiffen our spines, and face the future undaunted."" +It was a perfect line for America and for Americans who try to keep peace in a smoldering Middle East. It was a line, too, +that captured — unwittingly or not — how Clinton has lived her life. How many times since this woman took center +stage in this country nearly 20 years ago has she, privately and publicly, wiped away her tears, stiffened her spine, and +faced the future undaunted. +Clinton appeared to be crying again as she listened to Obama, seeming stricken himself. And when Obama finished and +walked back behind the podium, Clinton reached for his hand like an older sister or even a mother, and held it for a +second or two. It was a moment the history books will remember. +There was the first black president on the verge of re-election, or not. There was the woman expected to be the first +female president, until he showed up out of nowhere. There was the rivalry and tortured history, Bill Clinton ever the +third actor in the shadows. But all of it was put aside for something bigger than politics or egos: their country. We don't +see enough of that anymore. +When her husband was president, I made a career out of trashing Hillary Clinton's hairdos, pantsuits, her attempted +health care coup, her right-wing conspiracy theories, her staying with that slippery serial philanderer. Four years ago in +the presidential primary I rooted for Obama over her. +Yet when she finally conceded a totally unexpected defeat, a different Hillary Clinton began to emerge. She surprised us +by accepting a consolation prize, secretary of state. She then went on to perform it so ably that nearly two-thirds of +Americans, an almost unprecedented percentage, approve of her and her rehabilitated — or so we hope — spouse. +More than once since 2008 I've wondered: Would she have done a better job than Obama? I don't know. But I do know I +sold this woman short. +In awful moments in history, some leaders rise to the occasion, and some don't. Think Ronald Reagan's reassurance +after the Challenger disaster. Or George Bush on the rubble of Ground Zero after 9/11, telling the world we'd never +forget. Friday, by comparison, was a tiny moment.

Dr. Rice, thank you for joining us. +RICE: Good to be with you, Jake. +TAPPER: So, first of all, what is the latest you can tell us on who these attackers were at the embassy or at +the consulate in Benghazi? We're hearing that the Libyans have arrested people. They're saying that some +people involved were from outside the country, that there might have even been Al Qaida ties.

That will tell us with certainty what transpired. +But our current best assessment, based on the information that we have at present, is that, in fact, what +this began as, it was a spontaneous -- not a premeditated — response to what had transpired in Cairo.In +Cairo, as you know, a few hours earlier, there was a violent protest that was undertaken in reaction to this +very offensive video that was disseminated. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739754 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And then as that unfolded, it seems to +have been hijacked, let us say, by some individual clusters of extremists who came with heavier weapons, +weapons that as you know in -- in the wake of the revolution in Libya are -- are quite common and +accessible. And it then evolved from there. +We'll wait to see exactly what the investigation finally confirms, but that's the best information we have at +present. +TAPPER: Why was there such a security breakdown? Why was there not better security at the compound +in Benghazi? Why were there not U.S. Marines at the embassy in Tripoli? +RICE: Well, first of all, we had a substantial security presence with our personnel... +TAPPER: Not substantial enough, though, right? +RICE: ... with our personnel and the consulate in Benghazi. Tragically, two of the four Americans who +were killed were there providing security. That was their function. And indeed, there were many other +colleagues who were doing the same with them. +It obviously didn't prove sufficient to the -- the nature of the attack and sufficient in that -- in that +moment. And that's why, obviously, we have reinforced our remaining presence in Tripoli and why the +president has very -- been very clear that in Libya and throughout the region we are going to call on the +governments, first of all, to assume their responsibilities to protect our facilities and our personnel, and +we're reinforcing our facilities and our -- our embassies where possible... +TAPPER: But why... +RICE: ... and where needed. +TAPPER: Why would we not have Marines at the embassy in Tripoli to begin with? It would seem like this +-- this is obviously an unstable country. This is a region where U.S. interests have been attacked in +previous months. Why were there not Marines there to begin with? +RICE: First of all, there are Marines in some places around the world. There are not Marines in every +facility. That depends on the circumstances. That depends on the requirements. Our presence in Tripoli, +as in Benghazi, is relatively new, as you will recall. We've been back post-revolution only for a matter of +months. +But I've visited there myself, both to Tripoli and Benghazi.

And we'll see when the investigation unfolds whether +what was -- what transpired in Benghazi might have unfolded differently in different circumstances. +But the president has been very clear. The protection of American personnel and facilities is and will +remain our top ptiority. That's why we've reinforced our presence in Tripoli and elsewhere. +TAPPER: Look at this map, if you would. There have been protests around the world over the last several +days. And President Obama pledged to repair America's relationships with the Muslim world. Why does +the U.S. seem so impotent? And why is the U.S. even less popular today in some of these Muslim and Arab +countries than it was four years ago? +RICE: Jake, we're not impotent. We're not even less popular, to challenge that assessment. I don't know +on what basis you make that judgment. But let me -- let me point... +TAPPER: It just seems that the U.S. government is powerless as this — as this maelstrom erupts. +RICE: It's actually the opposite. First of all, let's be clear about what transpired here. What happened this +week in Cairo, in Benghazi, in many other parts of the region... +TAPPER: Tunisia, Khartoum... +RICE: ... was a result -- a direct result of a heinous and offensive video that was widely disseminated, that +the U.S. government had nothing to do with, which we have made clear is reprehensible and disgusting. +We have also been very clear in saying that there is no excuse for violence, there is -- that we have +condemned it in the strongest possible terms. +But let's look at what's happened. It's quite the opposite of being impotent. We have worked with the +governments in Egypt. President Obama picked up the phone and talked to President Morsi in Egypt. And +as soon as he did that, the security provided to our personnel in our embassies dramatically increased. +President Morsi... +TAPPER: It took two days for President Morsi to say anything about this. +RICE: President Mani has been out repeatedly and said that he condemns this violence. He's called off — +and his people have called off any further demonstrations and have made very clear that this has to stop, +(CROSSTALK) +RICE: Now, and -- and same, frankly, in Tunisia, in Yemen, and, of course, in Libya, where the +government has -- has gone out of its way to try to step up security and express deepest remorse for what +has happened.

The counter-demonstrations, the +outpouring of sympathy and support for Ambassador Stevens and for the United States, the government +of Libya and -- and the people on the street saying how pained they are by this, is much more a reflection +of the sentiment towards the United States than a small handful of heavily armed mobsters. +TAPPER: That certainly, according to polling, is the case in Libya. Not the case in Egypt. And since you +brought up President Morsi, let me try to get some clarification on something. President Obama was asked +about the relationship with Egypt on Wednesday, and this is what he said. +(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP) +OBAMA: I don't think that we would consider them an ally, but we don't consider them an enemy. They +are a new government that is trying to find its way. +(END VIDEO CLIP) +TAPPER: The United States has sent billions of dollars of U.S. taxpayer money to Egypt over the last few +decades. And by definition, as you know, according to the State Department, Egypt is a major non-NATO +ally of the United States.

That relationship remains the same, and the +president wasn't signaling any change in -- in the nature... +TAPPER: Was he trying to nudge Morsi? +RICE: The president wasn't signaling any change in the nature of our relationship. Obviously, the +president had a conversation with President Morsi and a very productive one, in which he underscored +that it's, of course, the responsibility of the Egyptian government as host to protect diplomatic personnel +and facilities, including our own, and we saw that President Morsi, immediately after that, took dramatic +steps to improve the security of our facilities in Cairo and elsewhere, and then went out and repeatedly +made a number of very important and powerful statements condemning the violence and conveying the +message that, however hateful such a video may be, there is absolutely no justification for violence against +the United States or other Western partners. +So what we've seen is that the president has been incredibly calm, incredibly steady, and incredibly +measured in his approach to this set of developments. And his interventions, his leadership has ensured +that in Egypt, in Yemen, in Tunisia, in Libya, and many other parts of the world, that leaders have come +out and made very plain that there's no excuse for this violence. We heard Prime Minister Erdogan of +Turkey say the same, we heard the Grand Mufti in Saudi Arabia say the same, that there's no excuse for +violence, that violence is to be condemned, and that governments have a responsibility to protect United +States personnel and facilities and those of all foreign diplomats. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739754 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The deadly assault raised questions about security lapses and +misjudgments by U.S. officials. +The deadly assault on a U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya on Sept. 11 was preceded by a succession of security lapses and +misjudgments, compounded by fog-of-battle decisions, that raise questions about whether the scope of the tragedy +could have been contained. +U.S, officials issued alerts and ordered security precautions in neighboring Egypt ahead of protests and violence on Sept. +11, but largely overlooked the possibility of trouble at other diplomatic postings in the region. +The State Department chose to maintain only limited security in Benghazi, Libya, despite months of sporadic attacks +there on U.S. and other Western missions. And while the U.S. said it would ask Libya to boost security there, it did so just +once, for a one week period in June, according to Libyan officials. +The U.S. didn't seriously consider sending in the military during the attack. It summoned rapid-response teams of +Marines only after the U.S. ambassador was dead. State Department officials said they doubted the Pentagon could +have mobilized a rescue force quickly enough to make a difference during the fighting.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +Adding a new dimension to the chain of events, the siege also engulfed what officials now describe as a secret safe +house used by American officials and security personnel involved in sensitive government programs after last year's +Libyan revolution. +Even when that building, also known as the ""annex,"" came under attack, U.S. officials were reluctant to divulge its +existence, and the secrecy complicated the Libyan response and the eventual American evacuation, according to Libyan +security officials. +The Obama administration has defended levels of security in place. Though intelligence officials are investigating +indications al Qaeda's North African affiliate had connections with militants who mounted the attack, U.S. officials say +the evidence still indicates it was a spontaneous response to protests in Cairo against an anti-Islamic video. But a +detailed review based on interviews with more than a dozen U.S. and Libyan officials shows months of ominous signals +suggesting the need for better security, along with missed chances for delivering it. +President Barack Obama, in his re-election campaign, gets high marks from voters on national security, but has drawn +Republican criticism over his handling of the anti-American protests. +After a classified briefing to lawmakers by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton Thursday, Sen. Susan Collins (R., Maine) +called the security ""woefully inadequate, given the security-threat environment."" The State Department has convened +an Accountability Review Board to investigate the attack, something it is required to do after such an incident. +U.S. officials still are struggling to piece together details of the attack. For more than a week after U.S. Ambassador +Christopher Stevens was killed, the State Department couldn't say why he was in Benghazi. On Thursday, officials said +they believed he was there to attend the launch of a joint U.S.-Libyan cultural and educational program. +Mr. Stevens and Sean Smith, an information officer, were killed at the consulate, in the first wave of the attack. Former +Navy SEALs Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods died later, at the sensitive safe house or annex a kilometer away. It remains +unclear to U.S. and Libyan officials whether the militants knew of that facility or just followed a U.S. convoy to it after +the consulate attack. +The apparent lapses extended to firefighting equipment. Rescue attempts at the main building were thwarted in part by +the absence of smoke-protection masks and fire extinguishers, said Libyan guards. Senior State Department officials said +these wouldn't have provided sufficient protection against the diesel-fueled inferno. +State Department officials said security for the consulate was frequently reviewed and was deemed sufficient to counter +what U.S. officials considered to be the most likely threat at the time: a limited hit-and-run attack with rocket-propelled +grenades or improvised explosive devices, or IEDs. +There was a string of attacks in Benghazi in the months before Sept. 11, including a June 6 IED explosion outside.the +consulate compound. ""These types of incidents were the ones that were our principal concerns,"" a senior State +Department official said. Based on the outcome of the June 6 attack, in which a perimeter wall was damaged but no +Americans hurt, a second State Department official added: ""Our security plan worked."" +Current and former officials said the security choices in Benghazi reflected efforts by Mr. Stevens to maintain a low- +profile security posture and show faith in Libya's new leaders, despite questions about their ability to rein in heavily +armed bands of militants. Officials say Mr. Stevens personally advised against having Marines posted at the embassy in +Tripoli, apparently to avoid a militarized U.S. presence. +The security plan for the consulate also reflected confidence Mr. Stevens felt in a city where he worked for months with +rebels battling Moammar Gadhafi's rule. State Department officials said he didn't consult with Washington before +traveling to Benghazi, located in an area that has become notorious for its volatile mix of Islamist militancy and heavy +weaponry. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739756 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Benghazi ""was awash with weapons in the hands of various brigades who were all +in combat with one another. It wasn't a secret."" +A State Department official said Washington doesn't control the travels of ambassadors within countries where they are +posted. But some current and former U.S. officials say it was a mistake for the administration to put so much faith in the +Libyans to provide adequate security so soon after the revolution, and questioned why more robust contingency plans +weren't in place. +One senior State Department official described the Benghazi consulate as a ""temporary office"" that security officers +treated as a ""subsidiary"" of the embassy in Tripoli, where more strenuous procedures and precautions were in place. ""So +Tripoli had the plan and the idea was that these people would just fall back on Tripoli, which they did in this situation, so +it worked,"" the official said. +Alarm bells about security in Benghazi started sounding this spring. +On April 10, someone threw an explosive device at a convoy carrying United Nations envoy Ian Martin. On May 22, a +rocket-propelled grenade hit offices of the International Committee of the Red Cross. +After the June 6 IED attack on the U.S. consulate, the U.S. asked Libya to step up security around American installations, +said a State Department spokesman. Libyan officials say the request was only for one week. A State Department official +said the temporary security buildup was needed to repair damage to the wall. +The Libyan who received the request said the added security was two extra cars of men plus some heavy machine guns. +After the repairs, Libyan security returned to normal levels: a four-man team of armed guards protecting the perimeter +and four unarmed Libyan guards inside to screen visitors. +Tensions remained high, however. On June 11, a rocket-propelled grenade hit a convoy in Benghazi carrying Britain's +ambassador to Libya, injuring two bodyguards. Britain closed its consulate in Benghazi. +The U.S. deemed the security level sufficient and decided to stay, ""given the very important mission that we have in +eastern Libya to support U.S. national security interests,"" said a senior State Department official. He said ""robust"" +security improvements had been made to the compound since the Americans moved into it in May 2011, including +cement barriers and barbed wire. +As the attacks mounted in Benghazi, intelligence agencies warned of the growing security risks, but didn't have specific +intelligence about particular threats or planned attacks. On Aug. 27, the State Department issued a travel warning for +Libya, citing a threat of assassinations and car bombings in both Benghazi and Tripoli. The warning said the embassy's +ability to intervene was limited because armed groups behind the attacks were ""neither sanctioned nor controlled by +the Libyan government."" +In the days before Sept. 11, intelligence agencies issued their annual warning of heightened security risks around the +anniversary of the 2001 attacks. Many counterterrorism officials saw a lessened risk this year than last year, which was +the 10th anniversary and the first one after the killing of Osama bin Laden. +In Libya, embassy personnel conducted a security review right before the anniversary. It determined there was no +reason to think an attack was planned or the consulate in Benghazi was ""insufficiently postured,"" said a senior +administration official. +Across the border in Egypt, red flags appeared on Sept. 8, after a radical Egyptian cleric aired on television portions of an +anti-Islam video believed made in the U.S. Officials at the U.S. embassy in Cairo that night sent the first of several +messages alerting Washington and other embassies in the region to the video and seeking guidance about responding +and the potential for a backlash. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739756 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

""That was well ahead of any intelligence that they got from Washington,"" one official said. +On Monday, Sept. 10, intelligence agencies sent a warning directly to the U.S. embassy in Cairo saying the protests could +turn violent. Diplomatic security officers in Cairo sent most embassy personnel home. +Intelligence analysts at the time had no reason to believe the unrest would spill over to neighboring Libya or beyond, +officials said. State Department officials likewise found no reason to put other embassies in the region on heightened +alert and decided not to call in Marine teams to help in Cairo. +""We have to put this in context: We've had protest after protest in Cairo. We know where the military is. We know +where to find them when we need them,"" a senior State Department official said. +Ethan Chorin, an American development economist working with U.S. and Libyan officials on a hospital in Benghazi, said +he spoke by phone to Mr. Stevens about an hour before the assault, and the ambassador told him there was ""no +indication of trouble"" following the protests in Egypt. Mr. Chorin said a subsequent conversation he had with the +ambassador's security officer was cut short by what the officer said was a serious problem. Several minutes later, he +could, hear explosions from his hotel room across town as the assault began. +During a final call by Mr. Chorin to a security officer at the consulate, the attack began, and his call was cut off. +The attack on the consulate compound started shortly after 9:30 p.m. Benghazi time, which was 3:30 p.m. Eastern time, +according to Libyan security guards. +Besides the four armed Libyans outside, five armed State Department diplomatic security officers were at the consulate. +Diplomatic security agent David Ubben was inside the main building with Mr. Stevens and Mr. Smith, the information- +management officer, when the attack,ers set it on fire around 15 minutes after the shooting started. +The three took refuge in a safe room, but found themselves overcome by smoke and agreed they would make a break +for it through a window, according to a State Department official familiar with Mr. Ubben's role. +Mr. Ubben, a 30-year-old Iraq war veteran, managed to escape, but lost contact with Messrs. Stevens and Smith in the +dense smoke, the official said. +In Washington, officials said, National Security Adviser Tom Donilon informed Mr. Obama of the attack in progress +ahead of a 5 p.m. Eastern time Oval Office meeting with Defense Secretary Leon Panetta and Gen. Martin Dempsey, +chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. By then, the main villa in the consulate compound was on fire. +There was no serious consideration at that hour of intervening with military force, officials said. Doing so without Libya's +permission could represent a violation of sovereignty and inflame the situation, they said. Instead, the State Department +reached out to the Libyan government to get reinforcements to the scene. +The Libyans sent about two dozen security men, according to members of the reinforcement team, who arrived at the +consulate 30 minutes after the fighting had started. +In addition to the shooting, thick black smoke and flames hindered a proper search inside the consulate, an effort +further hampered by the absence of fire extinguishers and masks. +Mr. Ubben and the other security agents made several trips into the building to try to find the diplomats but could +spend only brief periods inside, and suffered varying degrees of lung damage, said the official familiar with Mr. Ubben's +role. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739756 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

There was no sign of the ambassador. +The American security personnel evacuated the consulate and made their way to the secret site called the annex. +A plane with an American security team from Tripoli arrived in Benghazi about 1:30 a.m., according to the Libyan +account. The team found its way to the annex using global positioning devices. Libyans who accompanied the Americans +to the scene weren't told of the annex's location because of its connection to sensitive programs, and the Americans +didn't give them the GPS coordinates or address. Libyans at an emergency operation center in Benghazi were also kept +in the dark to the exact location. +As the U.S. and Libyan reinforcement team arrived from the airport, fighting broke out at the annex. +That assault, using rocket-propelled grenades and mortars, was described in U.S. and Libyan accounts as more +sophisticated than the earlier attack on the consulate, and it appeared to involve militants with possible links to al +Qaecla. +The Libyans led a convoy of roughly 30 Americans from the safe house to the airport, where a plane had been waiting. +But they quickly realized the plane was too small to evacuate everyone at once. +""We were surprised at the numbers of Americans who were at the airport,"" said Libyan Deputy Prime Minister Mustafa +Abushagour. ""We figured three or four people. No one told us the numbers ahead of time."" +The deputy prime minister said that he learned about the extent of U.S. intelligence operations only after the incident. +We have no problem with intelligence sharing or gathering, but our sovereignty is also key,"" said Mr. Abushagour. +The first to be flown to Tripoli were American diplomats and civilians. The U.S. security team waited for a second flight. +During the wait, Libyan troops went, without any Americans, to the Benghazi Medical Center to retrieve the +ambassador's body. Around 8 a.m., according to Libyan officials, the security detail flew back to Tripoli, carrying the +body. +Some officials say the U.S. could have sent military forces to Benghazi from U.S. Naval Air Station Sigonella, which is +some 450 miles away in Sicily, or mobilized a Marine team in Rota, Spain. Some officials said the U.S. could also have +sent aircraft to the scene in a ""show of force"" to scare off the attackers. +State Department officials dismissed the suggestions as unrealistic. ""They would not have gotten there in two hours, +four hours or six hours. They don't have troops sitting in a room next to an airplane with a pilot just sitting in the next +room drinking coffee,"" one senior State Department official said. +Some defense officials agreed with that assessment, given limited communications to Americans on the ground during +the assault. ""It was the fog of war,"" one said. +At the annex, Mr. Ubben suffered head and leg injuries from a mortar explosion. He was released this week from +intensive care but remains at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, in Bethesda, Md., the State Department +official familiar with his role said. +Mr. Ubben, a Marylander, is married and has a stepdaughter and an infant son. He is conscious and able to +communicate, according to his father, Rex Ubben. +""He's in good spirits,"" the senior Mr. Ubben said.

All of them should join the army or security forces as +individuals, not as groups,"" medical student Ahmed Sanallah, 27, said. ""Without that there will be no prosperity +and no success for the new Libya."" +The late afternoon demonstration had a cheerful atmosphere as families marched with small children on their +shoulders. +Fighter jets and helicopters roared overhead in a show of official support for the demonstration, which has been +enthusiastically promoted by the city's authorities. +""Those military battalions that want to impose their ideology on the people of Libya will be confronted,"" Saleh +Gaouda, a member of new ruling national congress, said. +""This city wants to go back to stability and participate in building the state"" +In a sign of the cheerful atmosphere, one ear had a giant cardboard model of Benghazi's landmark lighthouse +strapped to the roof As the sun set and the crowd began to disperse, someone shot fireworks into the air. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739757 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +""DEFEND BENGHAZI"" +Although the main demands of the marchers did not mention the attack on the U.S. consulate, it seems to have +provided a strong impetus for the authorities to rally support behind the country's weak government. +U.S. ambassador Christopher Stevens was well liked in Libya, and many people who were angered by an anti- +Islamic film made in the United States consider the attack on the embassy to have been excessive. Some +placards in English, intended for international news cameras, read: ""We demand justice for Stevens"" and ""Libya +lost a friend"". +""1 am out today to defend Benghazi. Killing the ambassador is a completely separate thing,"" 26-year-old Arnjad +Mohammed Hassan, a network engineer, said ""I don't give a damn about the killing of the ambassador because +the Americans offended the Prophet. I am just here for Benghazi."" +Benghazi, 1,000 km (600 miles) from Tripoli across largely empty desert, is controlled by various armed +groups, including some comprised of Islamists who openly proclaim their hostility to democratic government +and the West. +Some of these have been identified by local people as being among those who were at the consulate protest last +week. U.S. officials have described the violence as a ""terrorist attack"". +One group linked to the attack is Ansar al-Shatia, which has denied involvement in the violence. +Abu Al-Qaa, a demonstrator at the Ansar al-Sharia counter demonstration, said Stevens ""was preparing for he +entry of American troops into Libya"". +""The will of the Prophet was to expel infidels from Muslim lands so that Muslims prevail. Terrorizing your +enemy is one of Islam's tenets."" , +He said he had fought against American troops in Iraq where he was arrested and sent back to Gaddafi's Libya +and jailed for three years. +One banner at that demonstration read: ""Day to rescue Benghazi or day to rescue America?"" +In southern Libya, at least six people were killed and 12 injured in clashes between security forces and a local +group, a security official and a resident said on Friday. +Security forces were sent to the town of Brak, 700 km (400 miles) south of Tripoli, on Wednesday to stop a +group broadcasting songs about Craddafi on the radio, the official said The security forces, made up of former +rebel fighters, came under attack upon arrival. +(Additional reporting by Omar Al-Mostnary and Ali Shuaib; Editing by Giles Elgood) +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739757 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The newspapers also reported that the officials said Abu Khattala's +whereabouts were unknown. +U.S. government sources told Reuters that Abu Khattala is being investigated as a suspect in the Benghazi +consulate attacks though U.S. investigators are not clear at this point if he played a role in leading or organising +the attacks. +In an interview, Abu Khattala told Reuters he had only heard he was a suspect through news media and was +surprised that officials had told journalists he was at large. +""These reports say that no one knows where I am and that I am hiding,"" he said. ""But here I am in the open, +sitting in a hotel with you I'm even going to pick up my sister's kids from school soon."" +Sitting with a friend in the restaurant of a Benghazi hotel, the 41-year-old, sporting a red felt hat and a full +salt-and-pepper beard, laughed gently. +""There were many people there from Ansar al-Shariah, from other brigades and from the general public,"" the +official, who refused to be named, said, referring to the hardline Islamist militia group which has been blamed +for the attack. +""Just because someone is there doesn't mean they were behind it."" +Abu Khattala denied being a leader of Ansar al-Shariah, but said he was friendly with the group and knew its +membership well. +A U.S. official said there may be more than person taking a lead role in the group. +""Ansar al-Shariah is a factionalised militant group without one home address,"" the official told Reuters. +""There may be several military commanders playing a role in its activities."" +Abu Khattala said that on the night of Sept 11, he received a phone call telling him that an attack on the U.S. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739762 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

""I arrived at the scene just like the others did -- to see what was happening."" +He said that after he arrived at the consulate, he began to help direct traffic with other militia leaders. +""People were crashing into each other because of the chaos and there was sporadic shooting,"" he said. +Abu Khattala said he called the commanders of Benghazi's security forces -- the February 17 brigade and the +Supreme Security Committee -- and told them to remove their cars and people from the consulate to avoid +clashes. +""Soon after I made my calls, one of the guards told me that four men were detained in a building inside the +compound who had been shooting at the demonstrators,"" he said. +""By the time I arrived at the building the men had already escaped. At that point I left the scene and didn't +return."" +Little is known about Abu Khattala, who hails from Benghazi. +Abu Khattala, who is unmarried, said he went to public schools in Libya but did not attend university or +community college. He said he was imprisoned for a total of 10 years for ""knowing suspected personalities"". He +refused to elaborate. +""I've also never left the country,"" he said when asked if he received any education or training abroad. +Abu Khattala said he formed the Obeidah al-Jarrah brigade at the beginning of the armed revolt which +toppled Muammar Gaddafi last year. +The shadowy armed militia was blamed in the killing last July of military chief Abdelfattah Younes, a +former Gaddafi loyalist who had defected to the rebels. +Younes was involved in the 1969 coup that brought Gaddafi to power. He was interior minister before he +defected and took a senior position in the rebellion in February. +Some rebels, especially hard-line conservative Islamist fighters who were persecuted under Gaddafi, were +never happy to serve under a man who had been so close to Gaddafi. +Abu Khattala was questioned by Libyan authorities but released because no evidence directly linked him to +the killing. He said he later broke up his militia group. +""After the revolution Obeidah al-Jarrah was disbanded because we were a fighting group and the war was +over in Benghazi,"" he said. +But many members of Obeidah al-Jarrah are known to have joined other brigades, including Ansar al- +Shariah in Benghazi. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739762 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

One vehicle was also burned at the compound. +For many Libyans, the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi was the last straw in one of the biggest +problems Libya has faced since the ouster and death of longtime dictator Moamrnar Qaddafi around a year ago -- the +multiple mini-armies that with their arsenals of machine guns and rocket-propelled grenades are stronger than the +regular armed forces and police. +The militias, a legacy of the rag-tag popular forces that fought Qaddafi's regime, tout themselves as protectors of Libya's +revolution, providing security where police cannot.

On the same day Stevens killed in Benghazi, a number of +elderly Catholic nuns and a priest who have lived in Darna for decades providing free medical services, were attacked, +reportedly beaten or stabbed.

According to a sensitive +source, prior to the death of the United States Ambassador on September ii, 2012 Mangoush resisted +greater reliance on these specific large militias, believing that such a move undercuts the +government's efforts to disarm and demobilize all of the militias left over from the 2011 civil war. At +this point, however, Mangoush agreed with Magariaf that the situation in the country is becoming +increasingly dangerous and unmanageable. Accordingly, the Chief of Staff stated that he will work +with Ousama al Jouwali, the leader of the Zintan forces to step up operations against the other +militias, (supported by the Misrata troops), that also come from the mountainous region of Western +Libya. At the same time he will instruct NLA troops under ground force commander General Khalifa +Belgasirn Haftar to pursue operations against tribal forces fighting on behalf of the Qaddafi family in +Southern and Southeastern Libya. +2. (Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, Magariaf and Zidan agree that Libya's +future depends on the success of their efforts in this militia demobilization operation over the next six +months. While they believe that the involvement of Ansar al Sharia forces, with the assistance of al +Qai'da in the Islamic Magreb (AQIM), in the assassination of the U.S. Ambassador has focused the +world business and diplomatic community on the reality of the security issues surrounding the +militias, the President and Prime Minister also fear that the situation is far worse than Western +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739768 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Mangoush informs them that AQIM and radical Salafist groups are increasing their +efforts to take advantage of the frustrations of the various militias with the government, using the +attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi as an inspiration for their activities. Just as Ansar al Sharia +began as a militia supporting the federalist claims of Eastern tribal leaders, and was then infiltrated +by AQIM radicals, Mangoush believes many of the other regional and ethnic militias around the +country could follow the same path, if his troops do not succeed in the disarmament program. He +also agrees with Zidan that they must move quickly since Libya's tradition of avoiding the Sunni-Shia +conflict that dominates most of Middle East is beginning to erode during this period of chaos.) +3. A particularly sensitive source noted that NLA operations have already begun against Ansar +al Sharia forces south of Benghazi, after members of that militia/terrorist group killed four national +policemen during a grenade attack at a roadblock in the Sousa Mountains. Under orders from Haftar +Libyan troops surrounded more than 100 Ansar al Sharia fighters in the region of the town of Sousa. +According to this sensitive source, the NLA suffered relatively heavy casualties in the fighting, but +believe they captured a number of AQIM operatives and one of Ansar al Sharia's senior commanders, +Sufian bin Qamu, who they believe ordered the attack on the police. Mangoush also reported to Zidan +that Qamu had been previously captured by United States forces and imprisoned at the Guantanamo +Bay facility. +4. At the same time the Libyan army and forces from the Misrata militia entered the town of +Bani Walid approximately 100 miles south of Tripoli, in an area still loyal to the Qaddafi family, +engaging in close fighting with pro-Qaddafi forces. During the fighting Haftar dispatched troops with +heavier arms to support the Misrata forces. According to this source, the NLA downplayed the level of +the fighting, in an effort to reassure the supporters of the Government. That said the NLA/Misrata +force had captured the city center and the airport after suffering significant casualties. The +Government forces entered the city after shelling opposition positions around the city hospital, using +heavy mortars and motorized guns. +5. (Source Comment: In the opinion of this knowledgeable individual, while Magariaf and +Zidan remain optimistic about the future of Libya, they believe that the security situation will remain +tenuous throughout 2013. Magariaf also sees the national election scheduled for mid-2013 as a +potentially complicating factor. According to this source, Mangoush and Haftar focused on Bani +Walid under pressure from the Misrata commanders. These militia leaders were, according to a +knowledgeable source, angered over the death of one of their senior officials, Omran Shahan, at the +hands of pro-Qaddafi forces in Bani Walid. The Misrata commanders report that Shaban was one of +the organizers of the Misrata militia unit that captured and executed Qaddafi in 2011 outside of the +town of Sirte. The Misrata leaders, supported by the General National Council (GNC), demanded the +surrender of the men who arrested and killed Shahan. As the fighting expanded through late +September and early October, Magariaf and his advisors came to see Bani Walid as an important +symbol of their commitment to disarm the militias and anti-government groups, and increased their +involvement accordingly.) +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739768 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

During mid-October 2012 Libyan President Yu.ssef el Magariaf stated in private that he and +Prime Minister Ali Zidan have ordered National Libyan Army (NLA) Chief of Staff General Youssef al +Mangoush to establish a more coordinated operational relationship with Misrata and Zintan militias +in order to support expanded army operations throughout the country. According to a sensitive +source, prior to the death of the United States Ambassador on September 11, 2012 Mangoush resisted +greater reliance on these specific large militias, believing that such a move undercuts the +government's efforts to disarm and demobilize all of the militias left over from the 2011 civil war. At +this point, however, Mangoush agreed with Magariaf that the situation in the country is becoming +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739772 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Accordingly, the Chief of Staff stated that he will work +with Ousama al Jouwali, the leader of the Zintan forces to step up operations against the other +militias, (supported by the Misrata troops), that also come from the mountainous region of Western +Libya. At the same time he will instruct NLA troops under ground force commander General Khalifa +Belqasim Haftar to pursue operations against tribal forces fighting on behalf of the Qaddafi family in +Southern and Southeastern Libya. +2. (Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, Magariaf and Zidan agree that Libya's +future depends on the success of their efforts in this militia demobilization operation over the next six +months. While they believe that the involvement of Ansar al Sharia forces, with the assistance of al +Qati.cla in the Islamic Magreb (AQIM), in the assassination of the U.S, Ambassador has focused the +world business and diplomatic community on the reality of the security issues surrounding the +militias, the President and Prime Minister also fear that the situation is far worse than Western +sources realize. Mangoush informs them that AQIM and radical Salafist groups are increasing their +efforts to take advantage of the frustrations of the various militias with the government, using the +attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi as an inspiration for their activities. Just as Amax al Sharia +began as a militia supporting the federalist claims of Eastern tribal leaders, and was then infiltrated +by AQIM radicals, Mangoush believes many of the other regional and ethnic militias around the +country could follow the same path, if his troops do not succeed in the disarmament program. He +also agrees with Zidan that they must move quickly since Libya's tradition of avoiding the Sunni-Shia +conflict that dominates most of Middle East is beginning to erode during this period of chaos.) +3. A particularly sensitive source noted that NLA operations have already begun against Ansar +al Sharia forces south of Benghazi, after members of that militia/terrorist group killed four national +policemen during a grenade attack at a roadblock in the Sousa Mountains. Under orders from Haftar +Libyan troops surrounded more than 100 Ansar al Sharia fighters in the region of the town of Sousa. +According to this sensitive source, the NLA suffered relatively heavy casualties in the fighting, but +believe they captured a number of AQIM operatives and one of Ansar al Sharia's senior commanders, +Sufian bin Qamu, who they believe ordered the attack on the police. Mangoush also reported to Zidan +that Qamu had been previously captured by United States forces and imprisoned at the Guantanamo +Bay facility. +4. At the same time the Libyan army and forces from the Misrata militia entered the town of +Rani Walid approximately 100 miles south of Tripoli, in an area still loyal to the Qaddafi family, +engaging in close fighting with pro-Qaddafi forces. During the fighting Haftar dispatched troops with +heavier arms to support the Misrata forces. According to this source, the NLA downplayed the level of +the fighting, in an effort to reassure the supporters of the Government. That said the NLA/Misrata +force had captured the city center and the airport after suffering significant casualties. The +Government forces entered the city after shelling opposition positions around the city hospital, using +heavy mortars and motorized guns. +5. (Source Comment: In the opinion of this knowledgeable individual, while Magariaf and +Zidan remain optimistic about the future of Libya, they believe that the security situation will remain +tenuous throughout 2013. Magariaf also sees the national election scheduled for mid-2013 as a +potentially complicating factor. According to this source, Mangoush and Haftar focused on Bani +Walid under pressure from the Misrata commanders. These militia leaders were, according to a +knowledgeable source, angered over the death of one of their senior officials, Oman Shahan, at the +hands of pro-Qaddafi forces in Bani Walid. The Misrata commanders report that Shaban was one of +the organizers of the Misrata militia unit that captured and executed Qaddafi in 2011 outside of the +town of Sirte, The Misrata leaders, supported by the General National Council (CNC), demanded the +surrender of the men who arrested and killed Shahan.

Maybe this truth drip will force President Obama +to explain why his Administration so strenuously downplayed a terrorist connection and insisted an anti-Islamic video +was to blame. But amid media and Congressional efforts to uncover the truth about Benghazi, it's worth paying +attention to another attack on a U.S. diplomatic mission last month. +On September 13, several hundred people, mostly young men, stormed the Embassy in Yemen's capital of Sanaa. The +American staff had been evacuated, but the compound was overrun. In the melee four Yemenis died. At the time the +event was lumped in with other anti-American protests in Tunisia, Pakistan and Egypt that week. +Yet it has since become clear that the Yemen assault was also well coordinated, likely by one or more militias. More +alarming is an Iranian connection that signals that Tehran is expanding its long and quiet war on America to a new front. +The U.S. isn't ruling out the possible complicity of a Yemeni army faction loyal to ousted President Ali Abdullah Saleh. He +stepped down from power in February as part of a U.S.-backed political transition. Since his departure, the military has +been divided amid jockeying for control in this tribal society. The Salehs deny the accusation. +During months of anti-government protests in 2011, al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) also gained control of +territory in central Yemen. The group has several times tried to strike the U.S. mainland, and it may have been behind +the assassination this month of a Yemeni security officer employed at the U.S. Embassy. +However, the leading culprit is a Shiite rebel force backed by Tehran. Taking their name from a deceased commander, +the Houthi militia have since the mid-1990s fought against the Sunni-dominated government in Sanaa. According to +Western officials in Yemen, Iran has provided assistance for a Houthi resurgence in the past year Their fighters have +gone to Iran and Lebanon for training, and money and arms have flowed from both into Yemen, officials say. The +Houthis run a satellite TV channel, al-Maseera, from Beirut. +In July the Yemeni government said it had uncovered an Iranian spy ring in Sanaa. That got the attention of the Saudis, +who are anxious about Iranian efforts to stir up their co-religionist Shiites in Bahrain, Yemen and most of all in the +Kingdom itself. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739774 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The Iran-backed terrorists burst onto the scene by bombing the U.S. embassy and +Marine barracks in Beirut. If the Houthis were in the lead last month, the command and control chain runs straight to +Tehran. +The interim Yemeni government is also grappling with a separatist armed uprising in the south. One of the leaders of the +fractured rebel force lives in Beirut and has tried to build a pro-Iran movement in the south, according to a Western +diplomat in Sanaa. +The Houthis and the southerners are separate groups with somewhat different agendas. But Iran may be facilitating a +partnership, as well as reaching out to al Qaeda. They have one goal in common: To bring down the pro-American +government in Sanaa. ""Despite the fact that they're on opposite ends of the religious spectrum, al Qaeda and Iran will +cooperate,"" a Western diplomat says. ""You see indications that Iran is helping al Qaeda by trying to forge relations +between AQAP, Houthis and southern rebels."" +The U.S. supports a ""national dialogue"" to stabilize Yemen, while waging a drone campaign against the AQAP. Both are +commendable goals. Yet Tehran has emerged as a new threat to Yemen's future and is fighting the U.S. through terror +proxies. Congress can seek more clarity about Iran's designs with an inquiry into the Sanaa attacks. +Harry Edwards • Press Officer • Press Desk • U.S. Department of State +2201 C St, NW Rm 2109, Washington, DC 20520 I iff:139: I edwardshg@state.gov B6 +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739774 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

This was the view the officer would have had of the compound. +- Nancy A. Youssef /MCT +Even before the deadly Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. consulate that killed Ambassador Christopher Stevens and +three other Americans, diplomats from other nations and Libyan security officials had questioned the wisdom of +a U.S. decision to rely primarily on members of a local militia to protect its compound here. +Diplomats here told McClatchy that while it's customary to depend on local forces to protect diplomatic +missions, only the United States of the 10 or so foreign missions here allowed the local militia to be the first line +of defense. The others said they instead depended on military forces from their own country to provide security. +""A few months ago, there was a small attack here and the Libyans fled,"" said a diplomat from a European +nation who asked that he not be further identified so that he could speak candidly about his assessment of +security here. ""After that, I decided to only use special forces"" from his own country. +""We never considered using the brigades,"" he said, referring to the 17th of February Brigade, the local militia +that was considered the primary security force for the U.S. mission. ""We assumed the United States had a +special relationship with the brigades."" +Said another diplomat who requested anonymity for the same reasons: ""I would never depend on the brigades."" +The diplomat said he believed U.S. officials were unaware of the extremist links of those who were guarding +them. ""The mistake of the Americans was not following the trail of Islamic radicals,' he said. +For some, the cost of supplying security made operating in Benghazi prohibitive.

But after a June attack on the British ambassador's +convoy, the British withdrew from Benghazi. A British official told McClatchy that the realization that security +would require a larger — and more expensive — British force in Benghazi helped fuel that decision. +Hadar said the British still check in periodically on their compound, where a shot-up bulletproof windshield +from the June ambush still sits in what was the consulate's carport. +Who was responsible for determining how the United States protected its consulate here remains unclear two +months after Stevens' death.

At a hearing +of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee last month, Eric Allan Nordstrom, who served as +the chief security officer at the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli from September 2011 until July, testified that he had +requested additional security. +Charlene Lamb, the deputy assistant secretary for diplomatic security, defended the security procedures that had +been taken in Benghazi, telling the hearing that there were five American security guards — the number +recommended by Nordstrom — along with Libyans in Benghazi when the attack took place. +""We had the correct number of assets in Benghazi at the time of 9/11 ,"" she said. +It is unknown what Stevens' own position on security in Benghazi was. A Western diplomat here said the trip +was Stevens' first extensive visit to Benghazi since he'd assumed the ambassador's post in May. The diplomat +said that when he heard the attack begin about 9:30 p.m., he assumed ""that Chris was long gone."" +The diplomat expressed surprise that Stevens hadn't been evacuated at the first sign of trouble. ""We used to +take training from the Americans"" on diplomatic security, he said. +How the U.S. vetted its local security force in Benghazi may be among the questions to come up Thursday +when the Senate Intelligence Committee holds a closed hearing on the attack. Witnesses expected to appear +include Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and Matt Olsen, director of the National +Counterterrorism Center. David Petraeus, who resigned Friday as director of the CIA after acknowledging an +extramarital affair, had been scheduled to appear but will be replaced by Acting CIA Director Michael Morrell, +according to Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., the committee's chairwoman. +On Wednesday, during a ceremony honoring Stevens, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that the +administration has, in the wake of the 9/11 attack, dispatched a joint State and Defense Department task force +""to review high-threat posts to determine whether there are other improvements we need in light of the evolving +security challenges we now face."" +Diplomats here, however, say they believe one such improvement had become obvious in the months after a +NATO air campaign helped topple the government of longtime Libyan leader Moanunar Gadhafi: Don't expect +local forces to protect you when they can't even protect themselves against local extremists and terrorists +groups in a city now defined by reprisal attacks. In the past week alone, two police stations here were bombed +and a police colonel's patrol car was destroyed in front of his house; extremist groups seeking to wrest control +of the city are the suspected culprits. +According to two guards who were at the compound that night, a four-member team from the 17th of February +Brigade's VIP protection unit was assigned to provide security inside the compound and serve as a quick- +reaction force. The 17th of February guards lived in a house closest to the front gate. According to the guards, +they tried to fend off the attack of as many 100 men that night, shooting repeatedly at them. +But 17th of February brigade leaders say they never considered themselves responsible for consulate security, +and Najib Muftah, 25, a co-founder of the brigade's VIP unit, denied that his group was in charge. ""How could +four people secure a consulate?"" he said. +Consulate security that night was a hodge-podge of local groups, in addition to a handful of Americans, +including Stevens' bodyguard. Outside, members of Libya's newly formed police force stood guard, sitting in +their parked vehicles. In addition, as many as five unarmed Libyans who worked for the Blue Mountain Group, +a Wales-based contractor, were stationed around the perimeter to watch for suspicious activity and search +visitors to the compound. +But as a rowdy caravan of attackers came barreling down the road leading to the consulate, the police officers +parked on the other side of the street from the consulate fled, according to a 31-year-old private security guard +who was there that night. The security guard asked not to be named for fearing he would be targeted for +working with Americans. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739779 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

He described his men as ""afraid of Ansar al Shariah."" +""Everyone has a gun, he said. ""Benghazi is not secure."" +Members of the 17th of February Brigade first formed a ""VIP protection"" unit shortly after the anti-Gadhafi +uprising began in Febraury 2011. A group of about 50, they were trained by Qataris to protect the cavalcade of +politicians and diplomats who came to Benghazi, which was then the capital of rebel-controlled eastern Libya. +""If anything happened to the envoys that came to support the Libyan people, people would have believed +Gadhafi claims that we are all al Qaida,"" Muftah said. Among the foreign visitors the brigade's VIP unit +protected was French President Nicolas Sarkozy, who made a stunning visit here after Gadhafi's government +collapsed. +Stevens, who had been a special representative to the rebel government during the civil war, used the protection +unit as well, but not so much for security but as guides in the city, Muftah said. After the war, the brigade +continued to provide escorts as the U.S. formalized its presence here; most likely, Muftah said, because it was +the strongest force in Benghazi. +In addition, the brigade had a base less than a mile from the consulate that could provide additional forces if +needed, as it did Sept. 11. ""And we had good relations with the United States,"" Muftah said. +Once the rebel government moved to Tripoli and nations began to reopen embassies there, the United States +kept working with the brigade, as many of its troops were incorporated into the newly formed Libyan army. +Once Benghazi had a trained and running police force, the Americans asked for police forces to be stationed +outside the consulate, said Fawzi Waniss, the head of the Benghazi Supreme Security Committee, the group +with responsibility for melding Libya's many armed organizations into a unified force. +As the security situation deteriorated, several Libyan officials and the Blue Mountain guards said they urged the +United States to buttress security at the consulate, even as Stevens was wildly popular among residents here. +The Libyans, they said, could not secure themselves from a mounting extremist threat. +""I told them, you should have your own security,"" Waniss said. ""Don't depend on the Libyans."" +But others have suggested that the U.S. officials may have felt such a step was unnecessary because the CIA +had established offices about a mile away and had promised to send security officers to the consulate, if needed. +All of the diplomats interviewed for this story said they were unaware of the CIA station's existence. +That in fact happened on the night of Sept. 11, according to a CIA timeline, which said security officers from +the CIA station, which U.S. officials refer to as an annex, were dispatched 25 minutes after the first reports of +trouble. It took another 25 minutes for the force to reach the consulate, however, because of resistance from +militants. +One diplomat here said that while he appreciated the effort of the CIA guards to render assistance, 25 minutes in +such a situation ""is too late."" +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739779 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Late in the day on September 14, 2012, Egyptian President Moharriad. Morsi told senior +European diplomats that he is increasingly concerned the current anti-U.S. and anti-Western violence +spreading through Cairo and into the rest of Egypt may be part of an effort by his Salafist political +rivals to destabilize his government, which many of them believe is too moderate in its positions +regarding Islam, Israel, and the non-Muslim world. According to this source, Morsi, who is in +Brussels for meetings with the European Union (EU), was particularly concerned over a message from +Army commander General Abdel Fatah al-Sissi, that Islamist guerrillas, believed to be drawn +primarily from the Sawarki Bedouin tribe, had launched an attack on a base of the International +Peacekeeping Force (IPF) in the Sinai. The General reported that the 1500 United Nations troops at +the base, including some U.S. forces, were under heavy attack and casualty figures were not yet +known. Morsi stated that this fight was an example of radical anti-government forces and Salafist +Islamist dissidents taking advantage of the current situation to carry out attacks that demonstrate his +government is unable to protect Western personnel and facilities in Egypt. Morsi stated that the +success or failure of his regime is directly tied to his ability to establish a moderate Islamic state that +can work with western business interests. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739785 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +2. (Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, the current wave of violence is related +to an ongoing struggle between Salafist and Sufi Muslims throughout Egypt. What makes it more +frustrating for Morsi is that much of the violence appears to be inspired by members of the Salafist al +Nour Party, the coalition partner of Morsi's Freedom and Justice Party (FJP) in the new Egyptian +Parliament. According to this individual, Morsi delayed condemning the initial attacks on the U.S. +Embassy out of concern that his opponents would use such a statement to move against his +government. Late on the evening of September 13, 2012, Mohammed Badie, the Supreme Guide of +the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood (MB), sent a message to Morsi warning that he and the Supreme +Guidance Council were concerned that the situation around the U.S. Embassy was getting out of +control and that, difficult as it might seem, he had to take tough measures against the demonstrators, +and protect the interests of the U.S. and other Western Governments. In a telephone discussion with +Saadi al-Katany, the MB/Freedom and Justice Party (MB/FJP) Speaker of the lower house of +parliament, Morsi admitted that he had felt constrained from acting, given his past history of poor +personal relations with the leaders of al Nour. Al-Katany urged him to gain control of the situation.) +3. On September 14, Morsi also stated to an EU official that he had received extremely forceful +messages from both the U.S. State Department and the Office of the U.S. President, leaving no doubt +in his mind that the U.S. —Egyptian relations and more than $ibillion in U.S. aid were at stake in this +matter. Morsi added that since much of this aid goes to the Egyptian Army, he and al-Katany agreed +that actions that put it in jeopardy would also damage the new Egyptian administration's current +good relationship with the Army. Accordingly, Morsi instructed the military and security forces to use +all necessary force short of lethal measures to protect U.S. and Western facilities. In a private +conversation, Morsi stated that he felt he is losing control of the political situation and fears that if the +current fighting results in deaths, either of demonstrators, U.S. diplomats, Egyptian security +personnel, or UN peacekeepers, the situation may spin out of control and his government could fall. +Al-Katany agreed, but said that taking no action would guarantee disaster. They agreed that when the +situation calms down they will have to deal with the al Nour party, which they fear will, in the future, +take advantage of circumstances to try to destabilize Morsi's administration. With this in mind, Morsi +ordered al-Sissi to direct the commanders of Military Intelligence (MI -Mukhabarat el-Khabeya) to +step up operations collecting information on the activities of the al Nour leadership, focusing on any +contacts with potentially violent Salafist dissidents. +4.(Source Comment: A separate sensitive source also noted that General al-Sissi is warning +Morsi about press reports that the person who made the controversial internet film at the heart of this +situation is an Egyptian Coptic Christian. The General cautioned that as this report gains wider +circulation, the government and the Army must prepare for violent attacks by Islamists against that +community, which makes up ten (10) percent of the Egyptian population.) +5. A separate sensitive source noted that for his part, al-Sissi is prepared to to have his troops +take harsh measures against any demonstrators who attack Western personnel and facilities.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +We, the undersigned, are deeply troubled by reports that you may be considering Ambassador Susan +Rice to succeed Hillary Clinton as Secretary of State. Though Ambassador Rice has been our Representative to +the U.N., we believe her misleading statements over the days and weeks following the attack on our embassy in +Libya that led to the deaths of Ambassador Stevens and three other Americans caused irreparable damage to her +credibility both at home and around the world. +In her interviews over that time, Ambassador Rice propagated a falsehood that the attacks were +""spontaneous,"" the outcome of a protest ""spun out of control,"" and the result of a YouTube video. Only on +September 19— eight days after the attack — did the American people learn from National Counterterrorism +Director Matthew Olsen that the intelligence services considered the attack an act of terrorism and that al Qaeda +may have played a role. +Ambassador Rice is widely viewed as having either willfully or incompetently misled the American +public in the Benghazi matter. Her actions plausibly give U.S. allies (and rivals) abroad reason to question U.S. +commitment and credibility when needed. Thus, we believe that making her the face of U.S. foreign policy in +your second term would greatly undermine your desire to improve U.S. relations with the world and continue +your trust with the American people. +As you know, there have been repeated Congressional requests for information on the events of +September 11, 2012. Over the past month, our Senate colleagues have sent 13 separate letters to senior +Administration officials, including to you. Many Members of the House of Representatives have also sent +letters requesting answers. Our questions remain unanswered, and your Administration continues to deny +Congress access to critical information necessary for effective oversight. +Recent reports of discrepancies between the Department of Defense and the Central Intelligence +Agency's public timelines of the events on September 11 only exacerbate the problem, and we believe these +inconsistencies deserve closer examination. +In light of this troubling situation and the continued unanswered questions, we strongly oppose any +efforts to nominate Ambassador Susan Rice for the position of Secretary of State. +Sincerely, +Members of Congress +CC: All U.S. Senators +Yours in Liberty, +Jeff Duncan (SC-03) +Member of Congress +Visit the e-Dear Colleague Service to manage your subscription to the available Issue and Party list(s). +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739786 STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +Date: 05/13/2015 SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

These individuals noted that on four occasions, beginning on +December 23, 2011, groups or angry militiamen came to el-Keib's office and demanded better +treatment, a clear message of support for the role of Islamic law, and the removal of former Qaddafi +advisors from the new government +2.

In an effort to address these problems el-Keib is making changes in his new administration, +removing Minister of Economics Taher Sherkaz, who, as a former economic advisor to Qaddafi, was a +particular target of the militiamen.

The most influential of this group are Minister of Oil Abdulrahman +Ben Yaw, Minister of Finance Hassan Ziglam, National Oil Company chief Nuni Berrusien, and Ngeb +Obeda from the Libyan Stock Exchange. +4- (Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, el-Keib and Jalil are also very +concerned over growing criticism that these technocrats are puppets of various Western governments +and firms. Belhaj and the militiamen appear intent on limiting the influence of these Western +entities, using them as a weapon to weaken the el-Keib regime.

This produced heated protests from militia +leaders and in late December 20 ael-Keib named deputy Minister of Defense Colonel Yussef +Mangoush„ to be Chief of Staff. In the opinion of one source, this is a problematic choice, since el- +Keib is replacing the supposedly pro-American Haftar with al-Mangoush who commanded one of +Qaddafi's elite Special Forces units, even after the revolution began. This individual believes that el- +Keib's decision was driven by personal animosity toward Haftar, and the influence of Minister of +Defense Osama al-Juwali. The situation is far from resolved, as Haftar and his supporters, +particularly in the Benghazi garrison, continue to claim that the General is the true Chief of Staff. El- +Keib and al-Juwali are working to reconcile all of the elements in this conflict as quickly as possible, +before the supporters of the two claimants begin fighting. In the meantime, el-Keib has stated in +private that he fully expects Belhaj to attack al-Mangoush, but the Prime Minister believes that the +Colonel is the only officer strong enough to disarm the militias and avoid a civil war. +6. At the same time, a very sensitive source added that el-Keib and Jail are attempting to +reconcile the fighting between Misrata and Zintan forces in Tripoli by naming Misrata leader Fawzi +Abd Ali as Minister of the Interior and al-Juwali, who was commander of the Zintan militia, as +Minister of Defense.

All of them should join the army or security forces as +individuals, not as groups,"" medical student Ahmed Sanallah, 27, said. ""Without that there will be no prosperity +and no success for the new Libya."" +The late afternoon demonstration had a cheerful atmosphere as families marched with small children on their +shoulders. +Fighter jets and helicopters roared overhead in a show of official support for the demonstration, which has been +enthusiastically promoted by the city's authorities. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739798 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Some +placards in English, intended for international news cameras, read: ""We demand justice for Stevens"" and ""Libya +lost a friend"". +""I am out today to defend Benghazi.

""I don't give a damn about the killing of the ambassador because +the Americans offended the Prophet.

U.S. officials have described the violence as a ""terrorist attack"". +One group linked to the attack is Ansar al-Sharia, which has denied involvement in the violence. +Abu Al-Qaa, a demonstrator at the Ansar al-Sharia counter demonstration, said Stevens ""was preparing for the +entry of American troops into Libya"". +""The will of the Prophet was to expel infidels from Muslim lands so that Muslims prevail.

During the last week of December 2011 and the first week of 2012, Libya's Prime Minister +Abdurrahim el-Keib and President Mustafa Abdul Ja.lil engaged in a series of emergency planning +meetings attempting to deal with specific issues threatening the stability of the new National +Transitional Council (NTC) Government. According to extremely sensitive sources speaking in strict +confidence, paramount among these issues are the questions of disarming and rewarding the regional +militias who bore the majority of the fighting against the regime of Muammar al Qaddafi, as well as +the related issue of finding ministers and senior administrators for the new government who are +acceptable to these revolutionary forces. These individuals noted that on four occasions, beginning on +December 23, 2011, groups or angry militiamen came to el-Keib's office and demanded better +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739800 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

(Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, el-Keib is genuinely concerned +that this situation could spiral out of control and threatens the regime. He also suspects that much of +the unrest is being stirred by General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj and his conservative Islamist +supporters. By staying out of the new government, Belhaj has established a position from which he +can criticize their actions and appointments without concern or control. That said, el — Keib has been +told by his contacts in the Moslem Brotherhood (MB) that even Belhaj has been surprised that the +unrest in the militias has begun to manifest itself in fighting between groups that previously shared +the same goals and operated under Belhaj's loose command. This is particularly true in the case of +the increasingly violent conflicts between the Misrata and Zintan regional militias.) +3. In an effort to address these problems el-Keib is making changes in his new administration, +removing Minister of Economics Taher Sherkaz, who, as a former economic advisor to Qaddafi, was a +particular target of the militiamen. In the opinion of well informed individuals, el-Keib's closest and +most influential advisors are experts with economic backgrounds and experience dealing with +Western firms and governments. The most influential of this group are Minister of Oil Abdulrahman +Ben Yezza, Minister of Finance Hassan Ziglarn, National Oil Company chief Nuni Berrusien, and Ngeb +Obeda from the Libyan Stock Exchange. +4. (Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, el-Keib and JAE are also very +concerned over growing criticism that these technocrats are puppets of various Western governments +and firms. Belhaj and the militiamen appear intent on limiting the influence of these Western +entities, using them as a weapon to weaken the el-Keib regime. This trend is also affecting national +security, where, despite el-Keib's efforts to maintain a balance between the Islamists, regional +commanders, and the national army, a potentially dangerous conflict has arisen over the position of +Chief of Staff of the National Army. El-Kieb, according to this individual, believes that he must settle +this matter in short order to avoid provoking security concerns among foreign allies and businesses +contacts.) +5. According to a knowledgeable individual, in late December 2011e1-Kieb resisted efforts by +General Khalith Belqasim Haftar to establish himself as the Chief of Staff of the National Army. +Haftar, who lived in the United States for many years and is believed by Belhaj and others to have a +relationship with the U.S. Government, is using his popularity among the officer corps of the regular +mrcarmy to support his claim to be Chief of Staff. This produced heated protests from militia +leaders and in late December 2011e1-Keib named deputy Minister of Defense Colonel Yussef al- +Mangoush, to be Chief of Staff. In the opinion of one source, this is a problematic choice, since el- +Keib is replacing the supposedly pro-American Haftar with al-Mangoush who commanded one of +Qaddafi's elite Special Forces units, even after the revolution began. This individual believes that el- +Keib's decision was driven by personal animosity toward Haftar, and the influence of Minister of +Defense Osama al-Juwali. The situation is far from resolved, as Haftar and his supporters, +particularly in the Benghazi garrison, continue to claim that the General is the true Chief of Staff. El- +Keib and al-Juwali are working to reconcile all of the elements in this conflict as quickly as possible, +before the supporters of the two claimants begin fighting. In the meantime, el-Keib has stated in +private that he fully expects Belhaj to attack al-Mangoush, but the Prime Minister believes that the +Colonel is the only officer strong enough to disarm the militias and avoid a civil war. +6. At the same time, a very sensitive source added that el-Keib and Jain are attempting to +reconcile the fighting between Misrata and Zintan forces in Tripoli by naming Misrata leader Favvzi +Abd Ali as Minister of the Interior and al-Juwali, who was commander of the Zintan militia, as +Minister of Defense. To date, according to this individual, this effort has met with limited success, as +the fighting has continued and the militias are refusing to disarm until their demands regarding living +standards are met. +7. (Source Comment: One very sensitive source noted, that el-Keib is aware of the fact that he +is running out of time to stabilize the situation in Libya. He believes that if he does not disarm the +militias and meet their demands in the next six months there is a good chance of increased fighting +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739800 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

During the last week of December 2011, and the first week of 2012, Libya's Prime Minister +Abdurrahim el-Keib and President Mustafa Abdul Jalil engaged in a series of emergency planning +meetings attempting to deal with specific issues threatening the stability of the new National +Transitional Council (NTC) Government. According to extremely sensitive sources speaking in strict +confidence, paramount among these issues are the questions of disarming and rewarding the regional +militias who bore the majority of the fighting against the regime of ivluammar al Qaddafi, as well as +the related issue of finding ministers and senior administrators for the new government who are +acceptable to these revolutionary forces. These individuals noted that on four occasions, beginning on +December 23, 2011, groups or angry militiamen came to el-KeilD's office and demanded better +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739803 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

He also suspects that much of +the unrest is being stirred by General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj and his conservative Islamist +supporters. By staying out of the new government, Belhaj has established a position from which he +can criticize their actions and appointments without concern or control. That said, el — Keib has been +told by his contacts in the Moslem Brotherhood (MB) that even Belhaj has been surprised that the +unrest in the militias has begun to manifest itself in fighting between groups that previously shared +the same goals and operated under Belhaj's loose command. This is particularly true in the case of +the increasingly violent conflicts between the Misrata and Zintan regional militias.) +3. In an effort to address these problems el-Keib is making changes in his new administration, +removing Minister of Economics Taher Sherkaz, who, as a former economic advisor to Qaddafi, was a +particular target of the militiamen. In the opinion of well informed individuals, el-Keib's closest and +most influential advisors are experts with economic backgrounds and experience dealing with +Western firms and governments. The most influential of this group are Minister of Oil Abdulrahman +Ben Yezza, Minister of Finance Hassan Ziglam, National Oil Company chief Mari Berrusien, and Ngeb +Obecia from the Libyan Stock Exchange. +4. (Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, el-Keib and Jai are also very +concerned over growing criticism that these technocrats are puppets of various Western governments +and firms. Belhaj and the militiamen appear intent on limiting the influence of these Western +entities, using them as a weapon to weaken the el-Keib regime. This trend is also affecting national +security, where, despite el-Keib's efforts to maintain a balance between the Islamists, regional +commanders, and the national army, a potentially dangerous conflict has arisen over the position of +Chief of Staff of the National Army. El-Kieb, according to this individual, believes that he must settle +this matter in short order to avoid provoking security concerns among foreign allies and businesses +contacts.) +5. According to a knowledgeable individual, in late December 2011e1-Kieb resisted efforts by +General Khalifa Belqasim Haftar to establish himself as the Chief of Staff of the National +Army. Haftar, who lived in the United States for many years and is believed by Belhaj and others to +have a relationship with the U.S. Government, is using his popularity among the officer corps of the +regular NTC army to support his claim to be Chief of Staff. This produced heated protests from +militia leaders and in late December 2011e1-Keib named deputy Minister of Defense Colonel Yussef al- +Mangoush, to be Chief of Staff. In the opinion of one source, this is a problematic choice, since el- +!Leib is replacing the supposedly pro-American Haftar with al-Mangoush who commanded one of +Qaddafi's elite Special Forces units, even after the revolution began. This individual believes that el- +Keib's decision was driven by personal animosity toward Haftar, and the influence of Minister of +Defense Osama al-Juwali. The situation is far from resolved, as Haftar and his supporters, +particularly in the Benghazi garrison, continue to claim that the General is the true Chief of Staff. El- +Keib and al-Juwali are working to reconcile all of the elements in this conflict as quickly as possible, +before the supporters of the two claimants begin fighting. In the meantime, el- Keib has stated in +private that he fully expects Belhaj to attack al-Mangoush, but the Prime Minister believes that the +Colonel is the only officer strong enough to disarm the militias and avoid a civil war. +6. At the same time, a very sensitive source added that el-Keib and Jalil are attempting to +reconcile the fighting between Misrata and Zintan forces in Tripoli by naming Misrata leader Fawzi +Abd Ali as Minister of the Interior and al-Juwali, who was commander of the Zintan militia, as +Minister of Defense. To date, according to this individual, this effort has met with limited success, as +the fighting has continued and the militias are refusing to disarm until their demands regarding living +standards are met. +7. (Source Comment: One very sensitive source noted, that el-Keib is aware of the fact that he +is running out of time to stabilize the situation in Libya. He believes that if he does not disarm the +militias and meet their demands in the next six months there is a good chance of increased fighting +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739803 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The altered version became the basis for U.N.

These men were Mrs. Clinton's ""responsibility."" Several hours after the assault on the consulate, +members of the jihaclist militia Ansar al-Shariah turned on the CIA compound about a mile away, killing two of +Mr. Petraeus's men. +In Congressional hearings last month, career State officials admitted that threat warnings from Benghazi were +overlooked and requests for better security turned down. They said Foggy Bottom misjudged the ability of a +weak Libyan state to protect them. Ifs not clear how high up the chain these concerns went, but over to you, +Mrs. Clinton. +For over a week after the attacks, the Administration blamed the YouTube video. Mrs. Clinton didn't push this +misleading narrative in public as enthusiastically as Ms. Rice. Still, she bought into it. The father of Tyrone +Woods, a CIA contractor who was killed in Benghazi, told media outlets last month that Mrs. Clinton tried to +comfort him by promising that the U.S.-based maker of the video would be ""prosecuted and arrested""—though +terrorists killed his son. +Beyond the Benghazi attacks is the larger issue of the Administration's Libya policy, a failure that Mrs. Clinton +should also answer for.

This blunder forced the rebels to look elsewhere for +weapons and cash, particularly Golf states like Qatar that favored Islamist militias. +As Gadhaffs forces were about to overrun Benghazi in March, the Arab League, Britain and France called for +military intervention. Only after the Security Council gave the green light—when Russia abstained—did NATO +launch air strikes. American cruise missiles and *bombers led the way, but on April 7 President °barna pulled +the U.S. out of a leadership combat role. +The U.S. also waited until July to recognize the Benghazi rebel opposition as ""the legitimate governing +authority,"" after Luxembourg and 25 other countries had already done so. The war lasted until October, much +longer than necessary. +American disengagement continued after Gadhafi fell. Though rich in oil, Libya's well-intentioned new leaders +needed advice and encouragement to build a functioning state. The most pressing need was to rein in the anti- +Gadhafi militias and stand up a national army. But the U.S. was reluctant to follow up with aid or know-how. +(See our December 24, 2011 editorial, ""MIA on the Shores of Tripoli."")

During the last week of December 2011, and the first week of 2012, Libya's Prime Minister +Abdurrahim el-Keib and President Mustafa Abdul Jalil engaged in a series of emergency planning meetings +attempting to deal with specific issues threatening the stability of the new National Transitional Council (N'TC) +Government. According to extremely sensitive sources speaking in strict confidence, paramount among these +issues are the questions of disarming and rewarding the regional militias who bore the majority of the fighting +against the regime of Muammar al Qaddafi, as well as the related issue of finding ministers and senior +administrators for the new government who are acceptable to these revolutionary forces. These individuals +noted that on four occasions, beginning on December 23, 2011, groups or angry militiamen came to el-Keib's +office and demanded better treatment, a clear message of support for the role of Islamic law, and the removal +of former Qaddafi advisors from the new government. +2. (Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, el-Keib is genuinely concerned that this +situation could spiral out of control and threatens the regime. He also suspects that much of the unrest is being +stirred by General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj and his conservative Islamist supporters. By staying out of the +new government, Belhaj has established a position from which he can criticize their action:3 and appointments +without concern or control.

This is +particularly true in the case of the increasingly violent conflicts between the Misrata and Zintan regional +militias.) +3. In an effort to address these. problems el-Keib is making changes in his new administration, removing +Minister of Economics Taher Sherkaz, who, as a former economic advisor to Qaddafi, was a particular target of +the militiamen. In the opinion of well informed individuals, el-Keib's closest and most influential advisors are +experts with economic backgrounds and experience dealing with Western firms and governments. The most +influential of this group are Minister of Oil Abdulrahman Ben Yezza, Minister of Finance Hassan Ziglam, +National Oil Company chief Nun Bemisien, and Ngeb Obeda from the Libyan Stock Exchange. +4. (Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, el-Keib and Jail are also very concerned +over growing criticism that these technocrats are puppets of various Western governments and firms. Belhaj +and the militiamen appear intent on limiting the influence of these Western entities, using them as a weapon to +weaken the el-Keib regime. This trend is also affecting national security, where, despite el-Keib's efforts to +maintain a balance between the Islamists, regional commanders, and the national army, a potentially +dangerous conflict has arisen over the position of Chief of Staff of the National Army. El-Kieb, according to this +individual, believes that he must settle this matter in short order to avoid provoking security concerns among +foreign allies and businesses contacts.) +5. According to a knowledgeable individual, in late December 2011e1-Kieb resisted efforts by General +IChalifa Belqasim Hefter to establish himself as the Chief of Staff of the National Army. Hefter, who lived in the +United States for many years and is believed by Belhaj and others to have a relationship with the U.S. +Government, is using his popularity among the officer corps of the regular NTC army to support his claim to be +Chief of Staff. This produced heated protests from militia leaders and in late December 2011e1-Keib named +deputy Minister of Defense Colonel Yussef al-Mangoush, to be Chief of Staff. In the opinion of one source, this +is a problematic choice, since el-Keib is replacing the supposedly pro-American Hefter with al-Mangoush who +commanded one of Qaddafi's elite Special Forces units, even after the revolution began. This individual +believes that el-Keib's decision was driven by personal animosity toward Hefter, and the influence of Minister +of Defense Osama al-Juwali. The situation is far from resolved, as Hatter and his supporters, particularly in +the Benghazi garrison, continue to claim that the General is the true Chief of Staff. El-Keib and al-Juwali are +working to reconcile all of the elements in this conflict as quickly as possible, before the supporters of the two +claimants begin fighting. In the meantime, el-Keib has stated in private that he fully expects Belhaj to attack +al-Mangoush, but the Prime Minister believes that the Colonel is the only officer strong enough to disarm the +militias and avoid a civil war. +6. At the same time, a very sensitive source added that el-Keib and Jalil are attempting to reconcile the +fighting between Misrata and Zintan forces in Tripoli by naming Misrata leader Fa-wzi Abd Ali as Minister of +the Interior and al-Juwali, who was commander of the Zintan militia, as Minister of Defense. To date, +according to this individual, this effort has met with limited success, as the fighting has continued and the +militias are refusing to disarm until their demands regarding living standards are met. +7. (Source Comment: One very sensitive source noted, that el-Keib is aware of the fact that he is +running out of time to stabilize the situation in Libya. He believes that if he does not disarm the militias and +meet their demands in the next six months there is a good chance of increased fighting among rival groups that +could lead to civil war. In any event, he realizes that the ongoing instability will cause Western governments, +firms, and banks, to hesitate before committing themselves to long term relationships with Libya. El-Keib +believes that Belhaj and his advisors have made the same judgment, and are waiting to fill any vacuum created +by this violence, by establishing a conservative Islamic Republic.) +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739809 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The Al-Keeb government is clearly facing many crises, the major one being the inability so +far to implement what appeared to be fairly detailed plans by Minister of Interior Fauzi and Minister of Defense Juwaili to +incorporate 25k thuwar each (total 75k) into the security forces, armed forces and into the private sector (jobs, training, +education). the main obstacles appear to be inability to implement plans by any of the GOL ministers so far and lack of +funds although we hope there will be a solution to that soon. Also, none of the militias appears willing to budge without +seeing some proof that others are also willing to do so. +I am not sure about HRC contact ascribing these problems mainly to Bel-Haj, whose star we believed had fallen over the +past several weeks. The Islamists are demanding their share of the political pie like everyone else-no more and no less. I +met with a Libyan contact yesterday who had just met with an Islamist-led militiaman from Zintan. The leader of this group +demanded that women's role be inscribed in the constitution as per Sharia'-if that did not happen this guy threatened to +take up arms again. Sarkis-the new but now deposed Economy Minister is an example of the power of the street and +different voices clamoring for different things. He was a technocrat whom we dealt with in the past but because of the +perception that he was ""part of the old regime"" he had to go even though al-Keeb regretted the decision since Sarkis was +an able technocrat. So, the bottom line is that the disarming and reintegration of the militias is not going as well as we +would have liked though the Minister of Interior told me on the margins of the PM discussion with DDCI Morrell today that +things on that score were going ""well."" One positive ray of light is that Tripoli Local Council reps told us today that they +had begun registering thuwar to determine which of the three possible categories they couid stream into. Another +disturbing tmed which may be happening is the emergence of organized crime perhaps fueled by old regime elements +including Snussi and al-Baghdadi. According to MOI sources have expressed real concern about an unholy +alliance of former Qadhafi loyalists, criminals who escaped from prison, and odd assortments of different thuwar. They are +apparently getting money, terrorizing the cities by night and engaging in human trafficking, drugs, gunrunning and alcohol +backed by old regime money. The motivation would be economic and political (creating chaos and undermining +stability). Our Legatt reps will meet with the e the Brits tomorrow to see if we can respond to MOI request for help in +training a team to deal with this possible new and troubling phenomenon. Not sure whether this crime phenomenon is +connected to the murder of my good friend Hugo deSamie, a french businessman who had been involved in deals with +the old regime and was back trying his hand with the new group. +It is not clear whether he will survive given the +intense pressure the PM is coming under from the eastern Obeidi tribes-they want one of theirs in the position as +compensation for the murder of Yusuf Obeidi. +So bottom line, there is ferment and things are not progressing as fast and as far as we would like. But let's not panic yet- +the PM is well-intentioned and the ministers are able people if they can get the means to implement their plans. I told the +PM today that we could help in various areas and that we could be as discrete as need be in light of his formidable +political vulnerabilities.

To date, +according to this individual, this effort has met with limited success, as the fighting has continued and the +militias are refusing to disarm until their demands regarding living standards are met. +7. (Source Comment: One very sensitive source noted, that el-Keib is aware of the fact that he is +running out of time to stabilize the situation in Libya. He believes that if he does not disarm the militias and +meet their demands in the next six months there is a good chance of increased fighting among rival groups that +could lead to civil war. In any event, he realizes that the ongoing instability will cause Western governments, +firms, and banks, to hesitate before committing themselves to long term relationships with Libya.

As we work to +secure our personnel and facilities, we have confirmed that one of our State Department officers +was killed. We are heartbroken by this terrible loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family +and those who have suffered in this attack. +This evening, I called Libyan President Magariaf to coordinate additional support to protect +Americans in Libya. President Magariaf expressed his condemnation and condolences and +pledged his government's full cooperation. +Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted +on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs +of others. Our commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. +But let me be clear: There is never any justification for violent acts of this kind. +In light of the events of today, the United States government is working with partner countries +around the world to protect our personnel, our missions, and American citizens worldwide. +Statement on the Death of American Personnel in Benghazi, Libya +September 12, 2012 +It is with profound sadness that I share the news of the death of four American personnel in +Benghazi, Libya yesterday. Among them were United States Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens +and Foreign Service Information Management Officer, Sean Smith. We are still making next of +kin notifications for the other two individuals. Our hearts go out to all their families and +colleagues. +A 21 year veteran of the Foreign Service, Ambassador Stevens died last night from injuries he +sustained in the attack on our office in Benghazi. +I had the privilege of swearing in Chris for his post in Libya only a few months ago. He spoke +eloquently about his passion for service, for diplomacy and for the Libyan people. This +assignment was only the latest in his more than two decades of dedication to advancing closer +ties with the people of the Middle East and North Africa which began as a Peace Corps +Volunteer in Morocco. As the conflict in Libya unfolded, Chris was one of the first Americans +on the ground in Benghazi. He risked his own life to lend the Libyan people a helping hand to +build the foundation for a new, free nation. He spent every day since helping to finish the work +that he started. Chris was committed to advancing America's values and interests, even when +that meant putting himself in danger. +Sean Smith was a husband and a father of two, who joined the Department ten years ago.

Heavily armed militants +assaulted the compound and set fire to our buildings. American and Libyan security personnel +battled the attackers together. Four Americans were killed. They included Sean Smith, a Foreign +Service information management officer, and our Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens. We are +still making next of kin notifications for the other two individuals. +This is an attack that should shock the conscience of people of all faiths around the world. We +condemn in the strongest terms this senseless act of violence, and we send our prayers to the +families, friends, and colleagues of those we've lost. +All over the world, every day, America's diplomats and development experts risk their lives in +the service of our country and our values, because they believe that the United States must be a +force for peace and progress in the world, that these aspirations are worth striving and sacrificing +for. Alongside our men and women in uniform, they represent the best traditions of a bold and +generous nation. +In the lobby of this building, the State Department, the names of those who have fallen in the line +of duty are inscribed in marble.

He joined the Foreign Service, learned languages, won friends for America +in distant places, and made other people's hopes his own. +In the early days of the Libyan revolution, I asked Chris to be our envoy to the rebel opposition. +He arrived on a cargo ship in the port of Benghazi and began building our relationships with +Libya's revolutionaries. He risked his life to stop a tyrant, then gave his life trying to help build a +better Libya. The world needs more Chris Stevenses.

He spent 10 years as an information management officer +in the State Department, he was posted at The Hague, and was in Libya on a brief temporary +assignment. He was a husband to his wife Heather, with whom I spoke this morning. He was a +father to two young children, Samantha and Nathan. They will grow up being proud of the +service their father gave to our country, service that took him from Pretoria to Baghdad, and +finally to Benghazi. +The mission that drew Chris and Sean and their colleagues to Libya is both noble and necessary, +and we and the people of Libya honor their memory by carrying it forward. This is not easy. +Today, many Americans are asking — indeed, I asked myself— how could this happen? How +could this happen in a country we helped liberate, in a city we helped save from destruction? +This question reflects just how complicated and, at times, how confounding the world can be. +But we must be clear-eyed, even in our grief. This was an attack by a small and savage group — +not the people or Government of Libya. Everywhere Chris and his team went in Libya, in a +country scarred by war and tyranny, they were hailed as friends and partners. And when the +attack came yesterday, Libyans stood and fought to defend our post. Some were wounded. +Libyans carried Chris' body to the hospital, and they helped rescue and lead other Americans to +safety. And last night, when I spoke with the President of Libya, he strongly condemned the +violence and pledged every effort to protect our people and pursue those responsible. +The friendship between our countries, borne out of shared struggle, will not be another casualty +of this attack. A free and stable Libya is still in America's interest and security, and we will not +turn our back on that, nor will we rest until those responsible for these attacks are found and +brought to justice. We are working closely with the Libyan authorities to move swiftly and +surely. We are also working with partners around the world to safeguard other American +embassies, consulates, and citizens. +There will be more time later to reflect, but today, we have work to do. There is no higher +priority than protecting our men and women wherever they serve. We are working to determine +the precise motivations and methods of those who carried out this assault. Some have sought to +justify this vicious behavior, along with the protest that took place at our Embassy in Cairo +yesterday, as a response to inflammatory material posted on the intemet. America's commitment +to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear — there is +no justification for this, none. Violence like this is no way to honor religion or faith. And as long +as there are those who would take innocent life in the name of God, the world will never know a +true and lasting peace. +It is especially difficult that this happened on September I I th. It's an anniversary that means a +great deal to all Americans.

Yesterday, I spoke about two: Ambassador Chris Stevens and Information +Management Officer Sean Smith. Today, we also recognize the two security personnel who died +helping protect their colleagues. Tyrone S. Woods and Glen A. Doherty were both decorated +military veterans who served our country with honor and distinction. Our thoughts, prayers, and +deepest gratitude are with their families and friends. Our embassies could not carry on our +critical work around the world without the service and sacrifice of brave people like Tyrone and +Glen. +Tyrone's friends and colleagues called him ""Rone,"" and they relied on his courage and skill, +honed over two decades as a Navy SEAL. In uniform, he served multiple tours in Iraq and +Afghanistan. Since 2010, he protected American diplomatic personnel in dangerous posts from +Central America to the Middle East. He had the hands of a healer as well as the arm of a warrior, +earning distinction as a registered nurse and certified paramedic. All our hearts go out to +Tyrone's wife Dorothy and his three sons, Tyrone Jr., Hunter, and Kai, who was born just a few +months ago. +We also grieve for Glen Doherty, called Bub, and his family: his father Bernard, his mother +Barbara, his brother Gregory, and his sister Kathleen. Glen was also a former Navy SEAL and an +experienced paramedic. And he put his life on the line many times, protecting Americans in Iraq, +Afghanistan, and other hotspots. In the end, he died the way he lived — with selfless honor and +unstinting valor. +We condemn the attack that took the lives of these heroes in the strongest terms, and we are +taking additional steps to safeguard American embassies, consulates, and citizens around the +world.

Well, let me welcome our friends and colleagues +from Morocco here to the Benjamin Franklin Room on the eighth floor of the State Department +for this very important first session of the U.S.-Morocco Strategic Dialogue. Before I begin to +address the significance of this Strategic Dialogue and the next step in our long relations with +Morocco, I want to say a few words about the events unfolding in the world today. +We are closely watching what is happening in Yemen and elsewhere, and we certainly hope and +expect that there will be steps taken to avoid violence and prevent the escalation of protests into +violence. +I also want to take a moment to address the video circulating on the Internet that has led to these +protests in a number of countries. Let me state very clearly — and I hope it is obvious — that the +United States Government had absolutely nothing to do with this video. We absolutely reject its +content and message. America's commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very +beginning of our nation. And as you know, we are home to people of all religions, many of +whom came to this country seeking the right to exercise their own religion, including, of course, +millions of Muslims. And we have the greatest respect for people of faith. +To us, to me personally, this video is disgusting and reprehensible. It appears to have a deeply +cynical purpose: to denigrate a great religion and to provoke rage. But as I said yesterday, there +is no justification, none at all, for responding to this video with violence, We condemn the +violence that has resulted in the strongest terms, and we greatly appreciate that many Muslims in +the United States and around the world have spoken out on this issue. +Violence, we believe, has no place in religion and is no way to honor religion. Islam, like other +religions, respects the fundamental dignity of human beings, and it is a violation of that +fundamental dignity to wage attacks on innocents. As long as there are those who are willing to +shed blood and take innocent life in the name of religion, the name of God, the world will never +know a true and lasting peace. It is especially wrong for violence to be directed against +diplomatic missions. These are places whose very purpose is peaceful: to promote better +understuiding across countries and cultures.

Now, I would +note that in today's world with today's technologies, that is impossible. But even if it were +possible, our country does have a long tradition of free expression which is enshrined in our +Constitution and our law, and we do not stop individual citizens from expressing their views no +matter how distasteful they may be. +There are, of course, different views around the world about the outer limits of free speech and +free expression, but there should be no debate about the simple proposition that violence in +response to speech is not acceptable. We all — whether we are leaders in government, leaders in +civil society or religious leaders — must draw the line at violence. And any responsible leader +should be standing up now and drawing that line. +I wanted to begin with this statement, because, as our Moroccan friends and all of you know, this +has been a difficult week at the State Department. I very much appreciate, Minister, the +condolences your government expressed to our Embassy in Rabat And even though that tragedy +happened far away in Benghazi, we found a reminder of the deep bounds that connect Morocco +to the United States. It was in the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco that one of the Americans +we lost this week, Ambassador Chris Stevens, fell in love with the region when he served as a +Peace Corps volunteer there. That experience set him on a decades-long career of service. So in +the memory of fallen friends and colleagues, let us remind ourselves of the many ways in which +riot just our governments but the people of our two nations have worked together to build a better +future. +In many ways, the United States looks to Morocco to be a leader and a model. His Majesty King +Mohammed deserves great credit for the work you've undertaken. In fact, after my visit to Rabat +earlier this year. I told my team: ""We need to start a Strategic Dialogue with Morocco."" No +country has been a friend of the United States longer than Morocco. You were the first nation to +recognize us back in 1777. But we're not satisfied with simply having a friendship that is +longstanding We want one that is dynamic, growing, looking toward the future. So let me +highlight a few of the areas we should focus on today. +On political reform, we have all seen remarkable changes taking place across North Africa and +the Middle East. I commend Morocco and your government for your efforts to stay ahead of +these changes by holding free and fair elections, empowering the elected parliament, taking other +steps to ensure that the government reflects the will of the people. Today, our political working +group will discuss how the United States can continue to support your efforts to translate +commitments into actions. Because as we all know, democracy, real reform, require that people +themselves feel the changes in their evetyday lives: the courts reformed, the government more +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +open and transparent, universal human rights of all Moroccans — men and women alike — +respected. +I'm especially pleased by Morocco's commitments to take on the deeply troubling problem of +child marriage. We know that child brides are less likely to get an education, more likely to face +life-threatening problems, particularly around child birth and delivery, which not only +shortchanges them but can even rob them and their communities of their lives and talents. So we +want to encourage the government and civil society to continue their important work together on +this issue. +With regard to the Western Sahara, the United States continues to support efforts to find a +peaceful, sustainable, mutually agreed-upon solution. U.S. policy toward the Western Sahara has +remained consistent for many years. We have made clear that Morocco's autonomy plan is +serious, realistic, and credible, and that it represents a potential approach that could satisfy the +aspirations of the people in the Western Sahara to run their own affairs in peace and dignity. We +continue to support the negotiations carried out by the United Nations and hope parties can work +toward resolution. +With respect to the economy, our second working group will focus on what more can be done to +deliver tangible economic benefits. Morocco's economy is relatively healthy, but you face the +same problem that is now endemic across the world — unemployment is still too high, especially +among young people. +That's why the United States is providing $1.5 million to support an effort to attract foreign +investors, foster local economic development, and combat corruption across the region. And I'm +pleased to announce that later this year we will hold a Morocco business development +conference here in Washington to connect businesses from both countries. +Today, we should discuss ways to build on all of these efforts by increasing bilateral trade, a +particular goal of mine since so much trade from Morocco goes to Europe. I'd like to increase +the amount of trade coming to the United States, and also to improve economic integration +across North Africa, which could greatly benefit Morocco because of Morocco's stability and +Morocco's very strong economic foundation. The greater integration there is, the greater the +benefits for Moroccans. +Third, the attack in Benghazi this week reminds us that security remains a vital issue. Through +our work together on the Global Counterterrorism Task Force, the United States and Morocco +already share crucial information and best practices, and I thank Morocco for hosting a Global +Counterterrorism Task Force workshop on threats in the South Atlantic next month. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And so we are +partnering to help strengthen Morocco's criminal justice system and law enforcement. +There will be a lot to discuss in the meeting today. And let me add, the United States greatly +appreciates the constructive role Morocco is playing on the UN Security Council, especially your +support for the effort to end the violence and bloodshed in Syria and help to usher in a new +democratic future for that country. I commend Morocco for offering to host the next ministerial +meeting of the Friends of the Syrian People, and we look forward to continuing to work closely +together as close partners even after your term on the Security Council has ended. +Finally, our education and cultural ties are reason for much celebration. This year marks the 30th +anniversary of our official program to facilitate academic exchanges and other bonds between us. +There are more than 5,000 Moroccan alumni of these programs. Two are with us today — Dr. +Benjelloun and Dr. Ouaouicha — and we thank them. But among all our work on this front, from +preserving Morocco's historic sites to empowering youth, there's one area I particularly hope we +can focus on today and receive your advice and counsel — namely, interfaith dialogue. +In these tense and turbulent times, it's more important than ever for people of different faiths to +exchange ideas, to build understanding, to promote religious tolerance. It's one of the great +challenges of the 21st century, and it's one that we must address together. +So we have a lot of work to do, Minister, but our friendship runs long and deep, and as the treaty +our nations signed in 1786 says, and I quote, ""Trusting in God, it will remain permanent."" I'm +confident that we will continue to solve problems and produce results that make our nations +stronger, more peaceful, more secure, more prosperous, and also contribute to doing the same for +the world. +So again, let me welcome you, Minister. It's been a great pleasure for me to get to know you, to +work with you, to be your colleague bilaterally, regionally, and globally, and also welcome your +distinguished delegation. +Thank you.

They were good and +brave men. They were committed to the cause of building a brighter future for the people of +Libya. And we condemn the violence in the strongest terms, the violence against our posts in +Benghazi, in Egypt, and now in Yemen. +The Libyan ambassador is with us tonight, and I want to take a moment to thank him for the +support that his government and the Libyan people have shown to the United States in this +tragedy, particularly the outpouring of feelings of grief and loss because of the killing of our +ambassador. +Ambassador Aujali, would you mind saying a few words? +AMBASSADOR AMU: [redacted] +SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you very much, Ambassador. I know that that was a very +personal loss for you, as it was for me. I'm the one who sent Chris to Benghazi during the +revolution to show support and be able to advise our government about what we could do to +bring freedom and democracy and opportunity to the people of Libya. +Religious freedom and religious tolerance are essential to the stability of any nation, any people. +Hatred and violence in the name of religion only poison the well. All people of faith and good +will know that the actions of a small and savage group in Benghazi do not honor religion or God +in any way. Nor do they speak for the more than one billion Muslims around the world, many of +whom have shown an outpouring of support during this time +Unfortunately, however, over the last 24 hours, we have also seen violence spread elsewhere. +Some seek to justify this behavior as a response to inflammatory, despicable material posted on +the intemet. As I said earlier today, the United States rejects both the content and the message of +that video. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of +others. At our meeting earlier today, my colleague, the foreign minister of Morocco, said that all +prophets should be respected because they are all symbols of our humanity, for all humanity. +But both of us were crystal clear in this paramount message: There is never any justification for +violent acts of this kind. And we look to leaders around the world to stand up and speak out +against violence, and to take steps to protect diplomatic missions from attack. +Think about it. When Christians are subject to insults to their faith, and that certainly happens, +we expect them not to resort to violence. When Hindus or Buddhists are subjected to insults to +their faiths, and that also certainly happens, we expect them not to resort to violence. The same +goes for all faiths, including Islam. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +When all of us who are people of faith - and I am one — feel the pain of insults, of +misunderstanding, of denigration to what we cherish, we must expect ourselves and others not to +resort to violence, That is a universal standard and expectation, and it is everyone's obligation to +meet that, so that we make no differences, we expect no less of ourselves than we expect of +others, You cannot respond to offensive speech with violence without begetting more violence. +And I so strongly believe that the great religions of the world are stronger than any insults. They +have withstood offense for centuries. Refraining from violence, then, is not a sign of weakness in +one's faith; it is absolutely the opposite, a sign that one's faith is unshakable. +So tonight, we must come together and recommit ourselves to working toward a future marked +by understanding and acceptance rather than distrust, hatred, and fear. We can pledge that +whenever one person speaks out in ignorance and bigotry, ten voices will answer. They will +answer resoundingly against the offense and the insult, answering ignorance with enlightenment, +answering hatred with understanding, answering darkness with light; that if one person commits +a violent act in the name of religion, millions will stand up and condemn it out of strength. +In times like these, it can be easy to despair that some differences are irreconcilable, some +mountains too steep to climb; we will therefore never reach the level of understanding and +peacefulness that we seek, and which I believe the great religions of the world call us to pursue. +But that's not what I believe, and I don't think it's what you believe either here tonight. Part of +what makes our country so special is we keep trying. We keep working. We keep investing in +our future. We keep supporting the next generation, believing that young people can keep us +moving forward in a positive direction. +So tonight I think it's important that we talk not just about that better tomorrow that we all seek, +but also about some of the things — the real, practical, tangible things — that young people are +doing to help shape that better future. +Two years ago in this room, at our Eid reception, we launched a program called Generation +Change to lead a grassroots agenda of positive engagement with Muslim communities. And I +asked the young Muslim leaders in the audience that night to be our unofficial ambassadors, to +help build personal connections, seek out partners in other countries. And I can report to you +tonight they did not disappoint. In a few minutes, you're going to meet some of these young +leaders, each with a powerful story to tell. +The Generation Change network that started in this room now circles the globe. We are building +an international alliance of young people who want to drive change in their own communities. +They act as mentors, spark respectful debates, simply offer words of encouragement when +needed. But most importantly, they inspire others to keep expanding the circle of mutual +understanding and respect, one person at a time. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Our 2012 Hours Against Hate initiative encourages +young people to put themselves in another person's shoes through service projects. So far, young +people from all over the world have pledged thousands of volunteer hours to help people from a +different background, to see them as a fellow human being, not a stereotype, not a caricature, but +another real live person — people who don't look like you, live like you, pray like you, but with +whom we will share this planet. And therefore, we have work to do. +People of faith and conscience are called to be the leaders of tolerance. In my tradition, like all +traditions, we are expected to love one another. And together, we have to translate that into better +understanding and cooperation. I'm particularly pleased that the young people you will hear from +tonight are really setting an example, not only for young people elsewhere in the world but, +frankly, for us who are older as well. +Let me now call to the stage someone who has been a tremendous assistance to me in these +efforts. Farah Pandith is the Department's first Special Representative to Muslim Communities. +And from the beginning, she has made reaching out to young people and civil society her top +priority. Farah will introduce you to three young leaders who I am very proud of +Remarks at the Transfer of Remains Ceremony to Honor Those Lost in Attacks in Benghazi, Libya +September 14, 2012 +SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you very much, Chaplain. Mr. President, Mr. Vice President, +Secretary Panetta, Ambassador Rice, Secretary Powell and Mrs. Powell, family members of the +four patriots and heroes we bring home, members of the State Department family, ladies and +gentlemen, today we bring home four Americans who gave their lives for our country and our +values. To the families of our fallen colleagues, I offer our most heartfelt condolences and +deepest gratitude. +Sean Smith joined the State Department after six years in the Air Force. He was respected as an +expert on technology by colleagues in Pretoria, Baghdad, Montreal, and The Hague. He enrolled +in correspondence courses at Penn State and had high hopes for the future. Sean leaves behind a +loving wife Heather, two young children, Samantha and Nathan, and scores of grieving family, +friends, and colleagues. And that's just in this world. Because online in the virtual worlds that +Sean helped create, he is also being mourned by countless competitors, collaborators, and garners +who shared his passion. +Tyrone Woods, known to most as Rone, spent two decades as a Navy SEAL, serving multiple +tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. Since 2010, he protected American diplomatic personnel in +dangerous posts from Central America to the Middle East. He had the hands of a healer as well +as the arms of a warrior, earning distinction as a registered nurse and certified paramedic. Our +hearts go out to Tyrone's wife Dorothy, and his three sons Tyrone, Jr., Hunter, and Kai, born just +a few months ago, along with his grieving faii)ily, friends, and colleagues. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Glen deployed to some of the +most dangerous places on Earth, including Iraq and Afghanistan, always putting his life on the +line to safeguard other Americans. Our thoughts and prayers are with Glen's father Bernard, his +mother Barbara, his brother Gregory, his sister Kathleen, and their grieving families, friends, and +colleagues. +I was honored to know Ambassador Chris Stevens. I want to thank his parents and siblings, who +are here today, for sharing Chris with us and with our country. What a wonderful gift you gave +us. Over his distinguished career in the Foreign Service, Chris won friends for the United States +in far-flung places. He made those people's hopes his own. During the revolution in Libya, he +risked his life to help protect the Libyan people from a tyrant, and he gave his life helping them +build a better country. +People loved to work with Chris. And as he rose through the ranks, they loved to work for Chris. +He was known not only for his courage but for his smile — goofy but contagious — for his sense +of fun and that California cool. +In the days since the attack, so many Libyans — including the Ambassador from Libya to the +United States, who is with us today — have expressed their sorrow and solidarity. One young +woman, her head covered and her eyes haunted with sadness, held up a handwritten sign that said +""Thugs and killers don't represent Benghazi nor Islam,"" The President of the Palestinian +Authority, who worked closely with Chris when he served in Jerusalem, sent me a letter +remembering his energy and integrity, and deploring — and I quote — ""an act of ugly terror."" +Many others from across the Middle East and North Africa have offered similar sentiments. +This has been a difficult week for the State Department and for our country. We've seen the +heavy assault on our post in Benghazi that took the lives of those brave men. We've seen rage +and violence directed at American embassies over an awful interne video that we had nothing to +do with. It is hard for the American people to make sense of that because it is senseless, and it is +totally unacceptable. +The people of Egypt, Libya, Yemen, and Tunisia did not trade the tyranny of a dictator for the +tyranny of a mob. Reasonable people and responsible leaders in these countries need to do +everything they can to restore security and hold accountable those behind these violent acts. And +we will, under the President's leadership, keep taking steps to protect our personnel around the +world. +There will be more difficult days ahead, but it is important that we don't lose sight of the +fundamental fact that America must keep leading the world. We owe it to those four men to +continue the long, hard work of diplomacy. I am enormously proud of the men and women of the +State Department.

The President of the United States. +Remarks With Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Patricia Espinosa After Their +Meeting +September 18, 2012 +SECRETARY CLINTON: Good afternoon, everyone. And it is such a pleasure for me to +welcome my friend and colleague, Secretary Espinosa, along with a very distinguished +delegation of officials from the Mexican Government for this continuation of consultation at the +highest levels of each of our governments. +Before I turn to the matters discussed today, let me give a brief update on the ongoing U.S. +response to the protests in the Middle East and elsewhere. I'm sure as you know already, we are +taking aggressive steps to protect our staffs in embassies and consulates worldwide. That +includes reviewing our security posture at every post and augmenting it where necessary. And +we are working closely with the Libyan Government in our efforts to bring to justice those who +murdered our four American colleagues in Benghazi. +The FBI is now in Tripoli to join the investigation with Libyan officials, and there is nothing +more important to us than ensuring the safety of our American representatives worldwide. At the +same time, as I have said to State Department employees, the incidents of the past week highlight +how important our work is. The United States must and will remain strongly engaged in the +world. Our men and women risk their lives in service to our country and our values, because they +know that the United States must be a force for peace and progress. That is worth striving and +sacrificing for, and nothing that happened last week changes this fundamental fact. +Now, turning to our friends and partners in Mexico, we are always pleased to have a chance to +discuss matters of mutual interest and concern between us. Mexico is one of our closest friends +as well as partner on dozens of critical issues. So we talk about every kind of issue you can +imagine, from education and healthcare to poverty alleviation to the environment. But today, we +focused on a top priority for us both a security. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And I want to offer +my personal appreciation to President Calderon and to Foreign Secretary Espinosa for their +leadership and commitment to this partnership and to all on both sides of the border in our +governments who have been deeply engaged and committed to it. The Merida Initiative +represents an unprecedented level of security cooperation between Mexico and the United States. +As our countries continue to deal with the serious challenge of transnational criminal +organizations, including drug traffickers, illegal arms traffickers, money launderers, and violent +gangs that threaten people on both sides of the border, we well know there is no quick and easy +way to stop these criminals and bring them to justice. But nevertheless, during the past now +nearly four years, our countries have collaborated to an extraordinary and unprecedented degree. +We have brought together policy makers and experts from across our governments and societies +who have worked hand in hand to keep our people safe. And I think the habits of cooperation we +have built are among our most important achievements, and we will rely on them for a long time +to come. +Today, our delegations reviewed the gains we've made on key priorities, including improving +law enforcement coordination, reducing the demand for drugs, modernizing our border +infrastructure, strengthening the rule of law, and building more resilient and empowered +communities. We also discussed the lessons we've learned and the work that lies ahead in these +and other areas, which our joint statement will reflect. I want to underscore how important our +security relationship with Mexico is to the United States. +The Government of Mexico and the Mexican people have faced the threat posed by these +criminals with courage and resolve, and we remain committed to doing everything we can to +support Mexico as it continues to work to bring those criminals to justice. This is a transnational +problem, and it calls for a transnational solution, and the United States believes this is a matter of +shared responsibility. That was the first message I brought as Secretary of State when I came to +Mexico, and it continues to be the hallmark of our efforts together. Making sure our people are +safe and our neighbors are safe is of the utmost importance to us. +Now, our two countries share many other priorities, and one of them, empowering women and +girls, was also addressed today. We took the opportunity, the Foreign Secretary and I, to sign a +Memorandum of Understanding between our countries to work together to advance gender +equality, empower girls and women, promote their human rights, and enhance their security. +So again, Secretary Espinosa, let me thank you for years of work and effort, for our productive +conversations in many places around the world and again today, and for being such a valuable +colleague and partner. The United States deeply, deeply values our relationship with Mexico and +the ties of family and friendship that connect so many millions of our people. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

So thank you very much. +MS. NULAND: We'll take (inaudible). Margaret Brennan, CBS News. +QUESTION: Madam Secretary, thanks for your time. Are you any closer to finding who killed +Ambassador Chris Stevens?, Libya's President says this attack was planned for months. Are you +confident he's wrong and that security measures were appropriate? And will you leave justice to +the Libyans? +SECRETARY CLINTON: As I said at the outset, we are taking aggressive steps to protect our +people and our consulates and embassies around the world. We are reviewing our security +posture at every post and working with host governments to be sure they know what our security- +needs are wherever necessary. We are also working closely with the Libyan Government to bring +the perpetrators to justice so that we can be assured that we have found who murdered our four, +colleagues and under what circumstances. As I said, the FBI has joined the investigation inside +Libya, and we will not rest until the people who orchestrated this attack are found and punished. +It is also important to look at this strategically and understand what is going on across the region. +In a number of places where protests have tuned violent, we are seeing the hand of extremists +who are trying to exploit people's inflamed passions for their own agendas. But overwhelmingly, +we have found that the people of Egypt, of Libya, of Yemen and Tunisia are not prepared to +trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of a mob. They want to turn their attention to the +future to provide better opportunities for themselves and their children, and they want a strong +partnership with the United States and the American people based on mutual interests and mutual +respect. +This is part of a larger debate that is going on inside these societies. In Libya, for example, in +their first free elections, moderates were successful at the polls. But look, there are extremists in +all of these societies and on the outside who are working to take advantage of broad outrage in +order to incite violence and specifically incite violence against Americans and American +facilities. +And as I have said to many of the leaders I have spoken to over the past week, these extremist +efforts are a threat to the people of the societies and the governments of those societies as well as +to the region and the United States. And I think it's important at this moment for leaders to put +themselves on the right side of this debate - to speak out clearly and unequivocally against +violence, whoever incites it or conducts it +And in a struggle like this, there can be no doubt where the United States must stand. We support +those who are fighting for the same values and rights that we believe in - in democracy, in +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And I want to +underscore that the United States will continue to work with partners and allies in the region and +around the world to help bring security to these nations so that the promise of the revolutions that +they experienced can be realized. +And finally, on your specific point about Benghazi, we obviously never talk publicly about +security at any of our missions for obvious reasons. But that said, let me assure you that our +security in Benghazi included a unit of host government security forces, as well as a local guard +force of the kind that we rely on in many places around the world. In addition to the security +outside the compound, we relied on a wall and a robust security presence inside the compound. +And with all of our missions overseas, in advance of September lid', as is done every year, we +did an evaluation on threat streams. And the Office of the Director of National Intelligence has +said we had no actionable intelligence that an attack on our post in Benghazi was planned or +imminent. +But let me state the obvious again. Our diplomats engage in dangerous work, and it's the nature +of diplomacy in fragile societies and conflict zones to be aware of the necessity for security but +to also continue the important diplomatic work that has to go on. There is risk inherent in what +we do and what these brave men and women representing the United States are up against every +single day, and we do our very best to limit that risk by ensuring that our security protocols +reflect the environments in which diplomats work and the threats that they are presented with. +Thank you. +Remarks With Indonesian Foreign Minister Raden Mohammad Marty Muliana +Natalegawa After Their Meeting +September 20, 2012 +SECRETARY CLINTON: Good afternoon, everyone. And it's such a pleasure, as always, to +welcome the Indonesian Foreign Minister, and I believe the largest delegation that has ever come +from Indonesia, for the purpose of our third meeting of the U.S.-Indonesia Joint Commission. +This commission is the result of a vision by our two presidents for a comprehensive partnership, +and the agreement to that effect was signed in 2010. Thanks to this partnership, the United States +and Indonesia are working more closely than ever on a range of issues from global security to +clean energy and climate to regional trade and commerce. +And today, Marty and I had the chance to take stock of where our teams have come in the time +of the last year, because we liad our meeting in Bali a year ago.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +But before I start, I'd like to say a few words about the protests in several countries around the +world. We have condemned in the strongest possible terms the violence that has erupted from +these protests. And as I have said, the video that sparked these protests is disgusting and +reprehensible, and the United States Government, of course, had absolutely nothing to do with it. +But there is no justification for violence, and I want to thank the Foreign Minister and his +government for speaking out against violence. We have to look to reasonable people and +responsible leaders everywhere to stand up to extremists who would seek to take advantage of +this moment to commit violent acts against embassies and their fellow countrymen. +Today's meetings have highlighted the strong foundation that we have built together. And one of +our most important concerns is promoting peace and stability in the Asia Pacific. Today, I'm +announcing that the Obama Administration has informed Congress of the potential sale of eight +AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopters to the Indonesian Government. This agreement will +strengthen our comprehensive partnership and help enhance security across the region. +On growth and prosperity, we are increasing our trade relationship that topped $26 billion last +year. Investments in transportation, energy, and infrastructure are creating jobs and supporting +economic growth in both countries. For example, the deal between Lion Air and Boeing alone +represents $21 billion in trade over the next decade. Indonesia's Government has announced half +a trillion dollars in infrastructure improvements, and we recently signed a memorandum of +understanding to make it easier for American companies to bid on these projects. +And yesterday, we signed an agreement for implementing our Millennium Challenge +Corporation Compact with Indonesia. Over the next five years, the United States will invest $600 +million in clean energy development, child health and nutrition programs, and efforts to help +make Indonesia's Government more transparent and open. +The United States is also looking forward to Indonesia hosting APEC in 2013, and we are +confident that Indonesia will come to this role with a commitment to promote greater economic +integration across the Asia Pacific. +Both the Foreign Minister and I believe that strong education is essential to compete in a modem +global economy. That's why the United States has expanded the Fulbright Program and +supported partnerships between dozens of American and Indonesian universities. Academic +exchanges between our countries are up and applications from Indonesian students to visit the +United States have increased by one third. USAID has recently expanded its basic education +program to provide $83 million for teacher training and literacy programs for young children. +And we're providing $20 in scholarship funding for Indonesian graduate students. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The Foreign Minister's +personal leadership has helped lay the groundwork for diplomacy between ASEAN and China as +it relates to the South China Sea. And we continue to support ASEAN's six-point principles, +which we believe will help reduce tensions and pave the way for a comprehensive code of +conduct for addressing disputes without threats, coercion, or use of force. +Finally. Indonesia and the United States have stood together on a range of global challenges, +from democratic reform in Burma to combating climate change, to working to end the violence +in Syria. We are also coordinating efforts to further develop south-south and triangular +cooperation, such as enhancing disaster preparedness in Burma and convening a conference on +women's empowerment. +We believe that as the second and third-largest democracies in the world, the United States and +Indonesia have a special responsibility to promote democracy and human rights. And for the last +four years, Indonesia has hosted the Bali Democracy Forum to promote peaceful, democratic +transitions through example and open dialogue. Last year, more than 80 countries attended. And +once again, the United States will be sending a high-level delegation. +So, Minister, thank you for everything. Thank you for the great partnership we've had between +us and between our countries. +MS. NULAND: We'll take two questions today, we'll start with Ros Jordan of Al Jazeera +English. +QUESTION: Thank you, Madam Secretary, Mr. Foreign Minister. Madam Secretary, my +question is about the ongoing investigation into last week's attack at the consulate in Benghazi. +You are meeting this afternoon with members of Congress to discuss the progress and the +concerns that they understandably have. First, there is the federal mandate to establish an +accountability review board. Have you done so? Who would you like to see chair it? Are there +certain questions that you desperately want to have answered in order to safeguard the safety of +Foreign Service Officers around the world? +And related to this, given the political instability and the successes of the past year and a half, are +you satisfied that in light of those political changes, enough was done to protect those working in +the Middle East and North Africa? And then finally — and this is perhaps going into the area of +rumor and speculation — but there is at least one report suggesting that Ambassador Stevens felt +that he was on a, quote, ""al-Qaida hit list"" Is this a scurrilous rumor? Is this gallows humor +when one is working in a period of difficulty and great challenge, or is there something more to +what he allegedly — and I stress that word — said? +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, first, let me say I'm looking forward to the opportunity to go +up to the Congress today. I will be briefing in two separate sessions, the House and the Senate, in +a classified setting, along with my interagency colleagues, as we continue to work together, and +with governments around the world, to ensure that our people and our facilities are safe. I will be +joined today by the Director of National Intelligence, General Clapper, by the Deputy Secretary +of Defense, Ash Carter, by the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Sandy Winnefeld, +along with experts from the FBI, the State Department, and elsewhere in the government. +Now, I anticipate that this briefing will cover our security posture before and during the events, +and the steps we have taken since to do everything we can with host governments to protect our +people and our embassies and consulates. The Director of National Intelligence will speak to the +intelligence issues surrounding these events in Libya. Deputy Secretary Carter will brief on the +superb support we have had from the U.S. military in the wake of these events, and we are at the +very early stages of an FBI investigation. The team from the FBI reached Libya earlier this week. +And I will advise Congress also that I am launching an accountability review board that will be +chaired by Ambassador Thomas Pickering. +I will also talk about the importance of the broader relationships with these countries in light of +the events of the past days. There are obviously very real challenges in these new democracies, +these fragile societies, but as I said last week, the vast majority of the people in these countries +did not throw off the tyranny of a dictator to trade it for the tyranny of a mob. And we are +concerned first and foremost with our own people and facilities, but we are concerned about the +internal security in these countries because ultimately, that puts at risk the men, women, and +children of these societies on a daily ongoing basis if actions are not taken to try to restore +security and civil order. +And let me just conclude by saying that there can be no doubt where the United States stands. +We continue to support those who are fighting for universal values — values that we see at work +in Indonesia — the third largest democracy in the world. We believe that these values of universal +rights, of justice and accountability, of democracy, are there for every person regardless of where +that person might live. So I will look forward to having a chance to talk with members of +Congress. +As to your final question, I have absolutely no information or reason to believe that there's any +basis for that. +QUESTION: Thank you. +MS. NULAND: Last question. Victoria Sidjabat from Tempo Magazine, please. +QUESTION: Yes. Madam, thank you.

If it's continuing happen, it's — +obviously could give impact to the implementation of (inaudible) program in Indonesia. What is +the reason U.S. Government closed the Embassy and Consulate in Indonesia? What is your +expectation from Indonesia Government, for my Minister Marty Natalegawa? How Indonesia +Government respond to the closing of this Embassy and Consulate, it's starting today? Is U.S. — +Indonesia Government has capability to protect U.S. Embassy and Consulate. So the (inaudible) +program implemented — could be implemented successfully in Indonesia. Thank you. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, let me begin by saying how grateful we are for the excellent +cooperation we have received from the Government of Indonesia, and in particular, from the law +enforcement and security institutions in Indonesia. We are very grateful for not only the +cooperation and protection that has been provided to our facilities, but also to the strong +statements condemning violence from the President, the Foreign Mihister, and others. +In consultation with the Government of Indonesia, we have temporarily, for tomorrow, closed +our facilities. We want to be sure that law enforcement in Indonesia has the ability to do what it +needs to do to make sure that there is no disruption of civil order and security. So we are +cooperating completely, and we're very grateful for the strong leadership provided by Indonesia. +FOREIGN MINISTER NATALEGAWA: Hello, (inaudible), if I may just also respond. +Precisely as the Secretary had said, the decision by the United States Government to close +temporarily its embassies and consulates tomorrow in Indonesia is a decision that's been made +based on communication and conversation between the authorities in Indonesia and the United +States as well. So in other words, it is an informed decision, a decision that is not intended to +show any unfriendly intent on the part of anyone, but it is what it is, and it's quite some — it's the +kind of step that governments actually carry out when situations requires it, even in our case. +Some of our embassies abroad, when the situation requires us to have a temporary closing of the +embassy, we do that as well. So it is something that is quite regular and something that is +actually coordinated as well. +But if I may just broaden the subject matter, I think as our President had said in the past, +Indonesian Government the Indonesian people, even, obviously cannot and would not condone +the — any acts of violence against diplomatic premises, against diplomatic personnel, because +that is, truly — would be a challenge to the efficient and a proper conduct of relations among +states. So that's our point of departure. +At the same time, of course, beyond the immediate issue of protection of the embassies, we have +still ahead of us the challenge of how to prevent the kind of situations where we are now at in +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

We've had the opportunity to meet in Islamabad and other +settings, but I am very pleased that we would have this chance to exchange views on our bilateral +relationship as well as regional and global issues. +I want to begin by addressing the events of the day and the past week. Today, we've once again +seen protests in several cities in Pakistan. Unfortunately, some of those protests have turned +violent and, sadly, resulted in loss of life. I want to thank the Government of Pakistan for their +efforts to protect our Embassy in Islamabad and consulates in Lahore, Peshawar, and Karachi. +And I want to be clear, as I have said on numerous occasions, the violence we have seen cannot +be tolerated. There is no justification for violence. Of course, there is provocation, and we have +certainly made clear that we do not in any way support provocation. We found the video that's at +the core of this series of events offensive, disgusting, reprehensible. +But that does not provide justification for violence, and therefore it is important for responsible +leaders, indeed responsible people everywhere, to stand up and speak out against violence and +particularly against those who would exploit this difficult moment to advance their own +extremist ideologies. +Yesterday afternoon when I briefed the Congress, I made it clear that keeping our people +everywhere in the world safe is our top priority. What happened in Benghazi was a terrorist +attack, and we will not rest until we have tracked down and brought to justice the terrorists who +murdered four Americans. And we are taking aggressive measures at all of our posts to protect +our staffs and their families along with locally employed people who provide so many important +contributions to the work of our missions. +The Foreign Minister and I will have a chance to cover a full range of subjects today, and it is no +secret that the past year and a half has been challenging for Pakistan and the United States. And +we still have work to do to get our bilateral relationship to the point where we would like it to be, +but we both recognize that we can achieve more when we work together on a focused agenda.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +today is the latest in a series of high-level meetings. Ambassador Marc Grossman has just +returned from consultations in Islamabad. I look forward to seeing President Zardari next week +at the UN General Assembly. At each meeting, we are working to identify the strategic goals we +share — and there are many — and the concrete actions we can each take to accomplish them. +Our number one shared priority remains pursuing our joint counterterrorism objectives to ensure +the security of American and Pakistani citizens alike. We face a common threat from a common +enemy, and we must confront terrorism and extremism together. Earlier this month, I designated +the Haqqani Network as a Foreign Terrorist Organization so we could make full use of every +available legal authority to end their deadly attacks. Pakistan's parliament has called for +expelling foreign fighters so that Pakistan's territory can be fully under control of the Pakistani +Government and cannot be used to launch attacks against other nations. +And the follow-through on this is challenging but necessary, and we look forward to working +with Pakistan as they continue to address these problems. We have both pledged to support a +secure, stable, and prosperous Afghanistan, which is vital for the security of the region. And I +want to thank Foreign Minister Khar for Pakistan's reopening of the NATO supply lines to allow +the movement of goods to Afghanistan. +We will discuss the successful first meeting of the Safe Passage Working Group in Islamabad +which brought together Afghan, Pakistani, and U.S. representatives to advance the peace process +in Afghanistan. The Pakistani Government's public call for insurgents to come forward and talk +with the Afghan Government was particularly important. We are ready to work together to build +on these steps, and we will continue our discussions through bilateral consultations and the U.S.- +Afghanistan-Pakistan Core Group. +Now, of course, our relationship goes far beyond our shared security concerns, and today we will +discuss the many other ways in which we work together, particularly to create economic +opportunity for Pakistanis. Foreign Minister Khar and I agree that we need to shift our economic +relationship from aid to trade and investment. We are working to help Pakistan attract more +private sector investment. We hope to finalize a bilateral investment treaty soon. And we've +created a Pakistan private investment initiative to help more of Pakistan's small and medium +sized companies get access to capital. +Over the past few years, we have seen Pakistan's civilian government begin to put down stronger +roots. And if elections proceed as planned next year, it will mark the first time in Pakistan's +history that a civilian-led government has served its full term. The United States supports +Pakistan's economic development, and we have said many times that we want to see democracy +succeed in Pakistan. +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

I am pleased to welcome the Foreign Minister from +Tunisia I'm looking forward to our meeting, We obviously have a great deal to discuss, and I +want to thank the Foreign Minister and the Government of Tunisia for their efforts over the last +week to help secure our Embassy and the American Cooperative School of Tunis following the +violent assaults of last Friday. +We are monitoring events closely today. There is no higher priority for President Obama and +myself than the safety of our people. We've taken a number of steps around the world to +augment security and to protect our personnel at diplomatic posts. And we are working closely +with host governments in this effort. +As I have said before and as is embodied in the Vienna Convention and other international +agreements, all governments have the duty, the solemn duty, to defend diplomatic missions. +They must be safe and protected places so that governments can exchange views and work on +many important issues, and leaders across the world must stand up and be counted in rejecting +violence and holding violent actors accountable. +We are working closely with the Government of Tunisia They have assisted us in enhancing the +security of our facilities. We've also discussed with them the imperative of bringing to justice +those responsible for these violent attacks. And we have offered and will continue to look for +ways that we can assist the new Government of Tunisia in ensuring the rule of law throughout +their country, first and foremost for the people of Tunisia themselves. We look forward to +continuing to build our hew partnership with the Tunisian Government and people. Our +relationship is built around the shared principles of all democracies — a commitment to +nonviolence, to tolerance, and inclusivity for all people, and to upholding the rule of law. +The Tunisian people have bravely put themselves on the road to democracy. They were the first +of the Arab revolutions and they have made important progress in a very short period of time. +They have worked too hard and sacrificed too much over too many years to see their progress +hijacked at derailed by extremists with Ulric own a5,-. +, +,encia.

As we work to +secure our personnel and facilities, we have confirmed that one of our State Department officers +was killed. We are heartbroken by this terrible loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family +and those who have suffered in this attack. +This evening, I called Libyan President Magariaf to coordinate additional support to protect +Americans in Libya. President Magariaf expressed his condemnation and condolences and +pledged his government's full cooperation. +Some have sought to justify this vicious behavior as a response to inflammatory material posted +on the Internet. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs +of others. Our commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. +But let me be clear: There is never any justification for violent acts of this kind. +In light of the events of today, the United States government is working with partner countries +around the world to protect our personnel, our missions, and American citizens worldwide. +Statement on the Death of American Personnel in Benghazi, Libya +September 12, 2012 +It is with profound sadness that I share the news of the death of four American personnel in +Benghazi, Libya yesterday. Among them were United States Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens +and Foreign Service Information Management Officer, Sean Smith. We are still making next of +kin notifications for the other two individuals. Our hearts go out to all their families and +colleagues. +A 21 year veteran of the Foreign Service, Ambassador Stevens died last night from injuries he +sustained in the attack on our office in Benghazi. +I had the privilege of swearing in Chris for his post in Libya only a few months ago. He spoke +eloquently about his passion for service, for diplomacy and for the Libyan people. This +assignment was only the latest in his more than two decades of dedication to advancing closer +ties with the people of the Middle East and North Africa which began as a Peace Corps +Volunteer in Morocco. As the conflict in Libya unfolded, Chris was one of the first Americans +on the ground in Benghazi. He risked his own life to lend the Libyan people a helping hand to +build the foundation for a new, free nation. He spent every day since helping to finish the work +that he started. Chris was committed to advancing America's values and interests, even when +that meant putting himself in danger. +Sean Smith was a husband and a father of two, who joined the Department ten years ago.

Prior to arriving in Benghazi, he served in Baghdad, Pretoria, +Montreal, and most recently The Hague. +All the Americans we lost in yesterday's attacks made the ultimate sacrifice. We condemn this +vicious and violent attack that took their lives, which they had committed to helping the Libyan +people reach for a better future. +America's diplomats and development experts stand on the front lines every day for our country. +We are honored by the service of each and every one of them. +Remarks on the Deaths of American Personnel in Benghazi, Libya +September 12, 2012 +Yesterday, our U.S. diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya was attacked. Heavily armed militants +assaulted the compound and set fire to our buildings. American and Libyan security personnel +battled the attackers together. Four Americans were killed. They included Sean Smith, a Foreign +Service information management officer, and our Ambassador to Libya Chris Stevens. We are +still making next of kin notifications for the other two individuals. +This is an attack that should shock the conscience of people of all faiths around the world. We +condemn in the strongest terms this senseless act of violence, and we send our prayers to the +families, friends, and colleagues of those we've lost. +All over the world, every day, America's diplomats and development experts risk their lives in +the service of our country and our values, because they believe that the United States must be a +force for peace and progress in the world, that these aspirations are worth striving and sacrificing +for. Alongside our men and women in uniform, they represent the best traditions of a bold and +generous nation. +In the lobby of this building, the State Department, the names of those who have fallen in the line +of duty are inscribed in marble. Our hearts break over each one. And now, because of this +tragedy, we have new heroes to honor and more friends to mourn. +Chris Stevens fell in love with the Middle East as a young Peace Corps volunteer teaching +English in Morocco. He joined the Foreign Service, learned languages, won friends for America +in distant places, and made other people's hopes his own. +In the early days of the Libyan revolution, I asked Chris to be our envoy to the rebel opposition. +He arrived on a cargo ship in the port of Benghazi and began building our relationships with +Libya's revolutionaries. He risked his life to stop a tyrant, then gave his life trying to help build a +better Libya. The world needs more Chris Stevenses. I spoke with his sister, Ann, this morning, +and told her that he will be remembered as a hero by many nations. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

He spent 10 years as an information management officer +in the State Department, he was posted at The Hague, and was in Libya on a brief temporary +assignment. He was a husband to his wife Heather, with whom I spoke this morning. He was a +father to two young children, Samantha and Nathan. They will grow up being proud of the +service their father gave to our country, service that took him from Pretoria to Baghdad, and +finally to Benghazi. +The mission that drew Chris and Sean and their colleagues to Libya is both noble and necessary, +and we and the people of Libya honor their memory by carrying it forward. This is not easy. +Today, many Americans are asking — indeed, I asked myself— how could this happen? How +could this happen in a country we helped liberate, in a city we helped save from destruction? +This question reflects just how complicated and, at times, how confounding the world can be. +But we must be clear-eyed, even in our grief. This was an attack by a small and savage group — +not the people or Government of Libya. Everywhere Chris and his team went in Libya, in a +country scarred by war and tyranny, they were hailed as friends and partners. And when the +attack came yesterday, Libyans stood and fought to defend our post. Some were wounded. +Libyans carried Chris' body to the hospital, and they helped rescue and lead other Americans to +safety. And last night, when I spoke with the President of Libya, he strongly condemned the +violence and pledged every effort to protect our people and pursue those responsible. +The friendship between our countries, borne out of shared struggle, will not be another casualty +of this attack. A free and stable Libya is still in America's interest and security, and we will not +turn our back on that, nor will we rest until those responsible for these attacks are found and +brought to justice. We are working closely with the Libyan authorities to move swiftly and +surely.

Some have sought to +justify this vicious behavior, along with the protest that took place at our Embassy in Cairo +yesterday, as a response to inflammatory material posted on the intemet. America's commitment +to religious tolerance goes back to the very beginning of our nation. But let me be clear — there is +no justification for this, none. Violence like this is no way to honor religion or faith. And as long +as there are those who would take innocent life in the name of God, the world will never know a +true and lasting peace. +It is especially difficult that this happened on September I I th. It's an anniversary that means a +great deal to all Americans.

Doherty in Benghazi, Libya +September 13, 2012 +The attack on our diplomatic post in Benghazi, Libya on Tuesday claimed the lives of four +Americans. Yesterday, I spoke about two: Ambassador Chris Stevens and Information +Management Officer Sean Smith. Today, we also recognize the two security personnel who died +helping protect their colleagues. Tyrone S. Woods and Glen A. Doherty were both decorated +military veterans who served our country with honor and distinction. Our thoughts, prayers, and +deepest gratitude are with their families and friends. Our embassies could not carry on our +critical work around the world without the service and sacrifice of brave people like Tyrone and +Glen. +Tyrone's friends and colleagues called him ""Rone,"" and they relied on his courage and skill, +honed over two decades as a Navy SEAL. In uniform, he served multiple tours in Iraq and +Afghanistan. Since 2010, he protected American diplomatic personnel in dangerous posts from +Central America to the Middle East. He had the hands of a healer as well as the arm of a warrior, +earning distinction as a registered nurse and certified paramedic. All our hearts go out to +Tyrone's wife Dorothy and his three sons, Tyrone Jr., Hunter, and Kai, who was born just a few +months ago. +We also grieve for Glen Doherty, called Bub, and his family: his father Bernard, his mother +Barbara, his brother Gregory, and his sister Kathleen. Glen was also a former Navy SEAL and an +experienced paramedic. And he put his life on the line many times, protecting Americans in Iraq, +Afghanistan, and other hotspots. In the end, he died the way he lived — with selfless honor and +unstinting valor. +We condemn the attack that took the lives of these heroes in the strongest terms, and we are +taking additional steps to safeguard American embassies, consulates, and citizens around the +world. This violence should shock the conscience of people of all faiths and traditions. We +appreciate the statements of support that have poured in from across the region and beyond. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Well, let me welcome our friends and colleagues +from Morocco here to the Benjamin Franklin Room on the eighth floor of the State Department +for this very important first session of the U.S.-Morocco Strategic Dialogue. Before I begin to +address the significance of this Strategic Dialogue and the next step in our long relations with +Morocco, I want to say a few words about the events unfolding in the world today. +We are closely watching what is happening in Yemen and elsewhere, and we certainly hope and +expect that there will be steps taken to avoid violence and prevent the escalation of protests into +violence. +I also want to take a moment to address the video circulating on the Internet that has led to these +protests in a number of countries. Let me state very clearly — and I hope it is obvious — that the +United States Government had absolutely nothing to do with this video. We absolutely reject its +content and message. America's commitment to religious tolerance goes back to the very +beginning of our nation. And as you know, we are home to people of all religions, many of +whom came to this country seeking the right to exercise their own religion, including, of course, +millions of Muslims. And we have the greatest respect for people of faith. +To us, to me personally, this video is disgusting and reprehensible. It appears to have a deeply +cynical purpose: to denigrate a great religion and to provoke rage. But as I said yesterday, there +is no justification, none at all, for responding to this video with violence, We condemn the +violence that has resulted in the strongest terms, and we greatly appreciate that many Muslims in +the United States and around the world have spoken out on this issue. +Violence, we believe, has no place in religion and is no way to honor religion. Islam, like other +religions, respects the fundamental dignity of human beings, and it is a violation of that +fundamental dignity to wage attacks on innocents. As long as there are those who are willing to +shed blood and take innocent life in the name of religion, the name of God, the world will never +know a true and lasting peace. It is especially wrong for violence to be directed against +diplomatic missions. These are places whose very purpose is peaceful: to promote better +understuiding across countries and cultures. All governments have a responsibility to protect +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Now, I would +note that in today's world with today's technologies, that is impossible. But even if it were +possible, our country does have a long tradition of free expression which is enshrined in our +Constitution and our law, and we do not stop individual citizens from expressing their views no +matter how distasteful they may be. +There are, of course, different views around the world about the outer limits of free speech and +free expression, but there should be no debate about the simple proposition that violence in +response to speech is not acceptable. We all — whether we are leaders in government, leaders in +civil society or religious leaders — must draw the line at violence. And any responsible leader +should be standing up now and drawing that line. +I wanted to begin with this statement, because, as our Moroccan friends and all of you know, this +has been a difficult week at the State Department. I very much appreciate, Minister, the +condolences your government expressed to our Embassy in Rabat And even though that tragedy +happened far away in Benghazi, we found a reminder of the deep bounds that connect Morocco +to the United States. It was in the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco that one of the Americans +we lost this week, Ambassador Chris Stevens, fell in love with the region when he served as a +Peace Corps volunteer there. That experience set him on a decades-long career of service. So in +the memory of fallen friends and colleagues, let us remind ourselves of the many ways in which +riot just our governments but the people of our two nations have worked together to build a better +future. +In many ways, the United States looks to Morocco to be a leader and a model. His Majesty King +Mohammed deserves great credit for the work you've undertaken. In fact, after my visit to Rabat +earlier this year. I told my team: ""We need to start a Strategic Dialogue with Morocco."" No +country has been a friend of the United States longer than Morocco. You were the first nation to +recognize us back in 1777. But we're not satisfied with simply having a friendship that is +longstanding We want one that is dynamic, growing, looking toward the future. So let me +highlight a few of the areas we should focus on today. +On political reform, we have all seen remarkable changes taking place across North Africa and +the Middle East. I commend Morocco and your government for your efforts to stay ahead of +these changes by holding free and fair elections, empowering the elected parliament, taking other +steps to ensure that the government reflects the will of the people. Today, our political working +group will discuss how the United States can continue to support your efforts to translate +commitments into actions. Because as we all know, democracy, real reform, require that people +themselves feel the changes in their evetyday lives: the courts reformed, the government more +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +open and transparent, universal human rights of all Moroccans — men and women alike — +respected. +I'm especially pleased by Morocco's commitments to take on the deeply troubling problem of +child marriage. We know that child brides are less likely to get an education, more likely to face +life-threatening problems, particularly around child birth and delivery, which not only +shortchanges them but can even rob them and their communities of their lives and talents. So we +want to encourage the government and civil society to continue their important work together on +this issue. +With regard to the Western Sahara, the United States continues to support efforts to find a +peaceful, sustainable, mutually agreed-upon solution. U.S. policy toward the Western Sahara has +remained consistent for many years. We have made clear that Morocco's autonomy plan is +serious, realistic, and credible, and that it represents a potential approach that could satisfy the +aspirations of the people in the Western Sahara to run their own affairs in peace and dignity. We +continue to support the negotiations carried out by the United Nations and hope parties can work +toward resolution. +With respect to the economy, our second working group will focus on what more can be done to +deliver tangible economic benefits. Morocco's economy is relatively healthy, but you face the +same problem that is now endemic across the world — unemployment is still too high, especially +among young people. +That's why the United States is providing $1.5 million to support an effort to attract foreign +investors, foster local economic development, and combat corruption across the region. And I'm +pleased to announce that later this year we will hold a Morocco business development +conference here in Washington to connect businesses from both countries. +Today, we should discuss ways to build on all of these efforts by increasing bilateral trade, a +particular goal of mine since so much trade from Morocco goes to Europe. I'd like to increase +the amount of trade coming to the United States, and also to improve economic integration +across North Africa, which could greatly benefit Morocco because of Morocco's stability and +Morocco's very strong economic foundation. The greater integration there is, the greater the +benefits for Moroccans. +Third, the attack in Benghazi this week reminds us that security remains a vital issue. Through +our work together on the Global Counterterrorism Task Force, the United States and Morocco +already share crucial information and best practices, and I thank Morocco for hosting a Global +Counterterrorism Task Force workshop on threats in the South Atlantic next month. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And so we are +partnering to help strengthen Morocco's criminal justice system and law enforcement. +There will be a lot to discuss in the meeting today. And let me add, the United States greatly +appreciates the constructive role Morocco is playing on the UN Security Council, especially your +support for the effort to end the violence and bloodshed in Syria and help to usher in a new +democratic future for that country. I commend Morocco for offering to host the next ministerial +meeting of the Friends of the Syrian People, and we look forward to continuing to work closely +together as close partners even after your term on the Security Council has ended. +Finally, our education and cultural ties are reason for much celebration. This year marks the 30th +anniversary of our official program to facilitate academic exchanges and other bonds between us. +There are more than 5,000 Moroccan alumni of these programs. Two are with us today — Dr. +Benjelloun and Dr. Ouaouicha — and we thank them. But among all our work on this front, from +preserving Morocco's historic sites to empowering youth, there's one area I particularly hope we +can focus on today and receive your advice and counsel — namely, interfaith dialogue. +In these tense and turbulent times, it's more important than ever for people of different faiths to +exchange ideas, to build understanding, to promote religious tolerance. It's one of the great +challenges of the 21st century, and it's one that we must address together. +So we have a lot of work to do, Minister, but our friendship runs long and deep, and as the treaty +our nations signed in 1786 says, and I quote, ""Trusting in God, it will remain permanent."" I'm +confident that we will continue to solve problems and produce results that make our nations +stronger, more peaceful, more secure, more prosperous, and also contribute to doing the same for +the world. +So again, let me welcome you, Minister. It's been a great pleasure for me to get to know you, to +work with you, to be your colleague bilaterally, regionally, and globally, and also welcome your +distinguished delegation. +Thank you.

They were good and +brave men. They were committed to the cause of building a brighter future for the people of +Libya. And we condemn the violence in the strongest terms, the violence against our posts in +Benghazi, in Egypt, and now in Yemen. +The Libyan ambassador is with us tonight, and I want to take a moment to thank him for the +support that his government and the Libyan people have shown to the United States in this +tragedy, particularly the outpouring of feelings of grief and loss because of the killing of our +ambassador. +Ambassador Aujali, would you mind saying a few words? +AMBASSADOR AMU: [redacted] +SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you very much, Ambassador. I know that that was a very +personal loss for you, as it was for me. I'm the one who sent Chris to Benghazi during the +revolution to show support and be able to advise our government about what we could do to +bring freedom and democracy and opportunity to the people of Libya. +Religious freedom and religious tolerance are essential to the stability of any nation, any people. +Hatred and violence in the name of religion only poison the well. All people of faith and good +will know that the actions of a small and savage group in Benghazi do not honor religion or God +in any way. Nor do they speak for the more than one billion Muslims around the world, many of +whom have shown an outpouring of support during this time +Unfortunately, however, over the last 24 hours, we have also seen violence spread elsewhere. +Some seek to justify this behavior as a response to inflammatory, despicable material posted on +the intemet. As I said earlier today, the United States rejects both the content and the message of +that video. The United States deplores any intentional effort to denigrate the religious beliefs of +others. At our meeting earlier today, my colleague, the foreign minister of Morocco, said that all +prophets should be respected because they are all symbols of our humanity, for all humanity. +But both of us were crystal clear in this paramount message: There is never any justification for +violent acts of this kind. And we look to leaders around the world to stand up and speak out +against violence, and to take steps to protect diplomatic missions from attack. +Think about it. When Christians are subject to insults to their faith, and that certainly happens, +we expect them not to resort to violence. When Hindus or Buddhists are subjected to insults to +their faiths, and that also certainly happens, we expect them not to resort to violence. The same +goes for all faiths, including Islam. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +When all of us who are people of faith - and I am one — feel the pain of insults, of +misunderstanding, of denigration to what we cherish, we must expect ourselves and others not to +resort to violence, That is a universal standard and expectation, and it is everyone's obligation to +meet that, so that we make no differences, we expect no less of ourselves than we expect of +others, You cannot respond to offensive speech with violence without begetting more violence. +And I so strongly believe that the great religions of the world are stronger than any insults. They +have withstood offense for centuries. Refraining from violence, then, is not a sign of weakness in +one's faith; it is absolutely the opposite, a sign that one's faith is unshakable. +So tonight, we must come together and recommit ourselves to working toward a future marked +by understanding and acceptance rather than distrust, hatred, and fear. We can pledge that +whenever one person speaks out in ignorance and bigotry, ten voices will answer. They will +answer resoundingly against the offense and the insult, answering ignorance with enlightenment, +answering hatred with understanding, answering darkness with light; that if one person commits +a violent act in the name of religion, millions will stand up and condemn it out of strength. +In times like these, it can be easy to despair that some differences are irreconcilable, some +mountains too steep to climb; we will therefore never reach the level of understanding and +peacefulness that we seek, and which I believe the great religions of the world call us to pursue. +But that's not what I believe, and I don't think it's what you believe either here tonight. Part of +what makes our country so special is we keep trying. We keep working. We keep investing in +our future. We keep supporting the next generation, believing that young people can keep us +moving forward in a positive direction. +So tonight I think it's important that we talk not just about that better tomorrow that we all seek, +but also about some of the things — the real, practical, tangible things — that young people are +doing to help shape that better future. +Two years ago in this room, at our Eid reception, we launched a program called Generation +Change to lead a grassroots agenda of positive engagement with Muslim communities. And I +asked the young Muslim leaders in the audience that night to be our unofficial ambassadors, to +help build personal connections, seek out partners in other countries. And I can report to you +tonight they did not disappoint. In a few minutes, you're going to meet some of these young +leaders, each with a powerful story to tell. +The Generation Change network that started in this room now circles the globe. We are building +an international alliance of young people who want to drive change in their own communities. +They act as mentors, spark respectful debates, simply offer words of encouragement when +needed. But most importantly, they inspire others to keep expanding the circle of mutual +understanding and respect, one person at a time. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Our 2012 Hours Against Hate initiative encourages +young people to put themselves in another person's shoes through service projects. So far, young +people from all over the world have pledged thousands of volunteer hours to help people from a +different background, to see them as a fellow human being, not a stereotype, not a caricature, but +another real live person — people who don't look like you, live like you, pray like you, but with +whom we will share this planet. And therefore, we have work to do. +People of faith and conscience are called to be the leaders of tolerance. In my tradition, like all +traditions, we are expected to love one another. And together, we have to translate that into better +understanding and cooperation. I'm particularly pleased that the young people you will hear from +tonight are really setting an example, not only for young people elsewhere in the world but, +frankly, for us who are older as well. +Let me now call to the stage someone who has been a tremendous assistance to me in these +efforts.

I want to thank his parents and siblings, who +are here today, for sharing Chris with us and with our country. What a wonderful gift you gave +us. Over his distinguished career in the Foreign Service, Chris won friends for the United States +in far-flung places. He made those people's hopes his own. During the revolution in Libya, he +risked his life to help protect the Libyan people from a tyrant, and he gave his life helping them +build a better country. +People loved to work with Chris. And as he rose through the ranks, they loved to work for Chris. +He was known not only for his courage but for his smile — goofy but contagious — for his sense +of fun and that California cool. +In the days since the attack, so many Libyans — including the Ambassador from Libya to the +United States, who is with us today — have expressed their sorrow and solidarity. One young +woman, her head covered and her eyes haunted with sadness, held up a handwritten sign that said +""Thugs and killers don't represent Benghazi nor Islam,"" The President of the Palestinian +Authority, who worked closely with Chris when he served in Jerusalem, sent me a letter +remembering his energy and integrity, and deploring — and I quote — ""an act of ugly terror."" +Many others from across the Middle East and North Africa have offered similar sentiments. +This has been a difficult week for the State Department and for our country. We've seen the +heavy assault on our post in Benghazi that took the lives of those brave men. We've seen rage +and violence directed at American embassies over an awful interne video that we had nothing to +do with. It is hard for the American people to make sense of that because it is senseless, and it is +totally unacceptable. +The people of Egypt, Libya, Yemen, and Tunisia did not trade the tyranny of a dictator for the +tyranny of a mob. Reasonable people and responsible leaders in these countries need to do +everything they can to restore security and hold accountable those behind these violent acts. And +we will, under the President's leadership, keep taking steps to protect our personnel around the +world. +There will be more difficult days ahead, but it is important that we don't lose sight of the +fundamental fact that America must keep leading the world.

And we will +do it together, protecting and helping one another, just like Sean, Tyrone, Glen, and Chris always +did. May God bless them and grant their families peace and solace, and may God continue to +bless the United States of America. +And now, let me have the great honor of introducing someone who came to the State Department +earlier this week to grieve with us. He well understands and values the work that these men were +doing for our country. The President of the United States. +Remarks With Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Patricia Espinosa After Their +Meeting +September 18, 2012 +SECRETARY CLINTON: Good afternoon, everyone. And it is such a pleasure for me to +welcome my friend and colleague, Secretary Espinosa, along with a very distinguished +delegation of officials from the Mexican Government for this continuation of consultation at the +highest levels of each of our governments. +Before I turn to the matters discussed today, let me give a brief update on the ongoing U.S. +response to the protests in the Middle East and elsewhere. I'm sure as you know already, we are +taking aggressive steps to protect our staffs in embassies and consulates worldwide. That +includes reviewing our security posture at every post and augmenting it where necessary. And +we are working closely with the Libyan Government in our efforts to bring to justice those who +murdered our four American colleagues in Benghazi. +The FBI is now in Tripoli to join the investigation with Libyan officials, and there is nothing +more important to us than ensuring the safety of our American representatives worldwide. At the +same time, as I have said to State Department employees, the incidents of the past week highlight +how important our work is. The United States must and will remain strongly engaged in the +world. Our men and women risk their lives in service to our country and our values, because they +know that the United States must be a force for peace and progress. That is worth striving and +sacrificing for, and nothing that happened last week changes this fundamental fact. +Now, turning to our friends and partners in Mexico, we are always pleased to have a chance to +discuss matters of mutual interest and concern between us. Mexico is one of our closest friends +as well as partner on dozens of critical issues. So we talk about every kind of issue you can +imagine, from education and healthcare to poverty alleviation to the environment. But today, we +focused on a top priority for us both a security. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And I want to offer +my personal appreciation to President Calderon and to Foreign Secretary Espinosa for their +leadership and commitment to this partnership and to all on both sides of the border in our +governments who have been deeply engaged and committed to it. The Merida Initiative +represents an unprecedented level of security cooperation between Mexico and the United States. +As our countries continue to deal with the serious challenge of transnational criminal +organizations, including drug traffickers, illegal arms traffickers, money launderers, and violent +gangs that threaten people on both sides of the border, we well know there is no quick and easy +way to stop these criminals and bring them to justice. But nevertheless, during the past now +nearly four years, our countries have collaborated to an extraordinary and unprecedented degree. +We have brought together policy makers and experts from across our governments and societies +who have worked hand in hand to keep our people safe. And I think the habits of cooperation we +have built are among our most important achievements, and we will rely on them for a long time +to come. +Today, our delegations reviewed the gains we've made on key priorities, including improving +law enforcement coordination, reducing the demand for drugs, modernizing our border +infrastructure, strengthening the rule of law, and building more resilient and empowered +communities. We also discussed the lessons we've learned and the work that lies ahead in these +and other areas, which our joint statement will reflect. I want to underscore how important our +security relationship with Mexico is to the United States. +The Government of Mexico and the Mexican people have faced the threat posed by these +criminals with courage and resolve, and we remain committed to doing everything we can to +support Mexico as it continues to work to bring those criminals to justice. This is a transnational +problem, and it calls for a transnational solution, and the United States believes this is a matter of +shared responsibility. That was the first message I brought as Secretary of State when I came to +Mexico, and it continues to be the hallmark of our efforts together. Making sure our people are +safe and our neighbors are safe is of the utmost importance to us. +Now, our two countries share many other priorities, and one of them, empowering women and +girls, was also addressed today. We took the opportunity, the Foreign Secretary and I, to sign a +Memorandum of Understanding between our countries to work together to advance gender +equality, empower girls and women, promote their human rights, and enhance their security. +So again, Secretary Espinosa, let me thank you for years of work and effort, for our productive +conversations in many places around the world and again today, and for being such a valuable +colleague and partner. The United States deeply, deeply values our relationship with Mexico and +the ties of family and friendship that connect so many millions of our people. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

So thank you very much. +MS. NULAND: We'll take (inaudible). Margaret Brennan, CBS News. +QUESTION: Madam Secretary, thanks for your time. Are you any closer to finding who killed +Ambassador Chris Stevens?, Libya's President says this attack was planned for months. Are you +confident he's wrong and that security measures were appropriate? And will you leave justice to +the Libyans? +SECRETARY CLINTON: As I said at the outset, we are taking aggressive steps to protect our +people and our consulates and embassies around the world. We are reviewing our security +posture at every post and working with host governments to be sure they know what our security- +needs are wherever necessary. We are also working closely with the Libyan Government to bring +the perpetrators to justice so that we can be assured that we have found who murdered our four, +colleagues and under what circumstances. As I said, the FBI has joined the investigation inside +Libya, and we will not rest until the people who orchestrated this attack are found and punished. +It is also important to look at this strategically and understand what is going on across the region. +In a number of places where protests have tuned violent, we are seeing the hand of extremists +who are trying to exploit people's inflamed passions for their own agendas. But overwhelmingly, +we have found that the people of Egypt, of Libya, of Yemen and Tunisia are not prepared to +trade the tyranny of a dictator for the tyranny of a mob. They want to turn their attention to the +future to provide better opportunities for themselves and their children, and they want a strong +partnership with the United States and the American people based on mutual interests and mutual +respect. +This is part of a larger debate that is going on inside these societies. In Libya, for example, in +their first free elections, moderates were successful at the polls. But look, there are extremists in +all of these societies and on the outside who are working to take advantage of broad outrage in +order to incite violence and specifically incite violence against Americans and American +facilities. +And as I have said to many of the leaders I have spoken to over the past week, these extremist +efforts are a threat to the people of the societies and the governments of those societies as well as +to the region and the United States. And I think it's important at this moment for leaders to put +themselves on the right side of this debate - to speak out clearly and unequivocally against +violence, whoever incites it or conducts it +And in a struggle like this, there can be no doubt where the United States must stand. We support +those who are fighting for the same values and rights that we believe in - in democracy, in +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

And I want to +underscore that the United States will continue to work with partners and allies in the region and +around the world to help bring security to these nations so that the promise of the revolutions that +they experienced can be realized. +And finally, on your specific point about Benghazi, we obviously never talk publicly about +security at any of our missions for obvious reasons. But that said, let me assure you that our +security in Benghazi included a unit of host government security forces, as well as a local guard +force of the kind that we rely on in many places around the world. In addition to the security +outside the compound, we relied on a wall and a robust security presence inside the compound. +And with all of our missions overseas, in advance of September lid', as is done every year, we +did an evaluation on threat streams. And the Office of the Director of National Intelligence has +said we had no actionable intelligence that an attack on our post in Benghazi was planned or +imminent. +But let me state the obvious again. Our diplomats engage in dangerous work, and it's the nature +of diplomacy in fragile societies and conflict zones to be aware of the necessity for security but +to also continue the important diplomatic work that has to go on. There is risk inherent in what +we do and what these brave men and women representing the United States are up against every +single day, and we do our very best to limit that risk by ensuring that our security protocols +reflect the environments in which diplomats work and the threats that they are presented with. +Thank you. +Remarks With Indonesian Foreign Minister Raden Mohammad Marty Muliana +Natalegawa After Their Meeting +September 20, 2012 +SECRETARY CLINTON: Good afternoon, everyone. And it's such a pleasure, as always, to +welcome the Indonesian Foreign Minister, and I believe the largest delegation that has ever come +from Indonesia, for the purpose of our third meeting of the U.S.-Indonesia Joint Commission. +This commission is the result of a vision by our two presidents for a comprehensive partnership, +and the agreement to that effect was signed in 2010. Thanks to this partnership, the United States +and Indonesia are working more closely than ever on a range of issues from global security to +clean energy and climate to regional trade and commerce. +And today, Marty and I had the chance to take stock of where our teams have come in the time +of the last year, because we liad our meeting in Bali a year ago. And I must say, I was very +impressed. We covered a great deal today. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +But before I start, I'd like to say a few words about the protests in several countries around the +world. We have condemned in the strongest possible terms the violence that has erupted from +these protests. And as I have said, the video that sparked these protests is disgusting and +reprehensible, and the United States Government, of course, had absolutely nothing to do with it. +But there is no justification for violence, and I want to thank the Foreign Minister and his +government for speaking out against violence. We have to look to reasonable people and +responsible leaders everywhere to stand up to extremists who would seek to take advantage of +this moment to commit violent acts against embassies and their fellow countrymen. +Today's meetings have highlighted the strong foundation that we have built together. And one of +our most important concerns is promoting peace and stability in the Asia Pacific. Today, I'm +announcing that the Obama Administration has informed Congress of the potential sale of eight +AH-64D Apache Longbow helicopters to the Indonesian Government. This agreement will +strengthen our comprehensive partnership and help enhance security across the region. +On growth and prosperity, we are increasing our trade relationship that topped $26 billion last +year. Investments in transportation, energy, and infrastructure are creating jobs and supporting +economic growth in both countries. For example, the deal between Lion Air and Boeing alone +represents $21 billion in trade over the next decade. Indonesia's Government has announced half +a trillion dollars in infrastructure improvements, and we recently signed a memorandum of +understanding to make it easier for American companies to bid on these projects. +And yesterday, we signed an agreement for implementing our Millennium Challenge +Corporation Compact with Indonesia. Over the next five years, the United States will invest $600 +million in clean energy development, child health and nutrition programs, and efforts to help +make Indonesia's Government more transparent and open. +The United States is also looking forward to Indonesia hosting APEC in 2013, and we are +confident that Indonesia will come to this role with a commitment to promote greater economic +integration across the Asia Pacific. +Both the Foreign Minister and I believe that strong education is essential to compete in a modem +global economy. That's why the United States has expanded the Fulbright Program and +supported partnerships between dozens of American and Indonesian universities. Academic +exchanges between our countries are up and applications from Indonesian students to visit the +United States have increased by one third. USAID has recently expanded its basic education +program to provide $83 million for teacher training and literacy programs for young children. +And we're providing $20 in scholarship funding for Indonesian graduate students. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

The Foreign Minister's +personal leadership has helped lay the groundwork for diplomacy between ASEAN and China as +it relates to the South China Sea. And we continue to support ASEAN's six-point principles, +which we believe will help reduce tensions and pave the way for a comprehensive code of +conduct for addressing disputes without threats, coercion, or use of force. +Finally. Indonesia and the United States have stood together on a range of global challenges, +from democratic reform in Burma to combating climate change, to working to end the violence +in Syria. We are also coordinating efforts to further develop south-south and triangular +cooperation, such as enhancing disaster preparedness in Burma and convening a conference on +women's empowerment. +We believe that as the second and third-largest democracies in the world, the United States and +Indonesia have a special responsibility to promote democracy and human rights. And for the last +four years, Indonesia has hosted the Bali Democracy Forum to promote peaceful, democratic +transitions through example and open dialogue. Last year, more than 80 countries attended. And +once again, the United States will be sending a high-level delegation. +So, Minister, thank you for everything. Thank you for the great partnership we've had between +us and between our countries. +MS. NULAND: We'll take two questions today, we'll start with Ros Jordan of Al Jazeera +English. +QUESTION: Thank you, Madam Secretary, Mr. Foreign Minister. Madam Secretary, my +question is about the ongoing investigation into last week's attack at the consulate in Benghazi. +You are meeting this afternoon with members of Congress to discuss the progress and the +concerns that they understandably have. First, there is the federal mandate to establish an +accountability review board. Have you done so? Who would you like to see chair it? Are there +certain questions that you desperately want to have answered in order to safeguard the safety of +Foreign Service Officers around the world? +And related to this, given the political instability and the successes of the past year and a half, are +you satisfied that in light of those political changes, enough was done to protect those working in +the Middle East and North Africa? And then finally — and this is perhaps going into the area of +rumor and speculation — but there is at least one report suggesting that Ambassador Stevens felt +that he was on a, quote, ""al-Qaida hit list"" Is this a scurrilous rumor? Is this gallows humor +when one is working in a period of difficulty and great challenge, or is there something more to +what he allegedly — and I stress that word — said? +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, first, let me say I'm looking forward to the opportunity to go +up to the Congress today. I will be briefing in two separate sessions, the House and the Senate, in +a classified setting, along with my interagency colleagues, as we continue to work together, and +with governments around the world, to ensure that our people and our facilities are safe. I will be +joined today by the Director of National Intelligence, General Clapper, by the Deputy Secretary +of Defense, Ash Carter, by the Vice Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Sandy Winnefeld, +along with experts from the FBI, the State Department, and elsewhere in the government. +Now, I anticipate that this briefing will cover our security posture before and during the events, +and the steps we have taken since to do everything we can with host governments to protect our +people and our embassies and consulates. The Director of National Intelligence will speak to the +intelligence issues surrounding these events in Libya. Deputy Secretary Carter will brief on the +superb support we have had from the U.S. military in the wake of these events, and we are at the +very early stages of an FBI investigation. The team from the FBI reached Libya earlier this week. +And I will advise Congress also that I am launching an accountability review board that will be +chaired by Ambassador Thomas Pickering. +I will also talk about the importance of the broader relationships with these countries in light of +the events of the past days. There are obviously very real challenges in these new democracies, +these fragile societies, but as I said last week, the vast majority of the people in these countries +did not throw off the tyranny of a dictator to trade it for the tyranny of a mob. And we are +concerned first and foremost with our own people and facilities, but we are concerned about the +internal security in these countries because ultimately, that puts at risk the men, women, and +children of these societies on a daily ongoing basis if actions are not taken to try to restore +security and civil order. +And let me just conclude by saying that there can be no doubt where the United States stands. +We continue to support those who are fighting for universal values — values that we see at work +in Indonesia — the third largest democracy in the world. We believe that these values of universal +rights, of justice and accountability, of democracy, are there for every person regardless of where +that person might live. So I will look forward to having a chance to talk with members of +Congress. +As to your final question, I have absolutely no information or reason to believe that there's any +basis for that. +QUESTION: Thank you. +MS.

If it's continuing happen, it's — +obviously could give impact to the implementation of (inaudible) program in Indonesia. What is +the reason U.S. Government closed the Embassy and Consulate in Indonesia? What is your +expectation from Indonesia Government, for my Minister Marty Natalegawa? How Indonesia +Government respond to the closing of this Embassy and Consulate, it's starting today? Is U.S. — +Indonesia Government has capability to protect U.S. Embassy and Consulate. So the (inaudible) +program implemented — could be implemented successfully in Indonesia. Thank you. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, let me begin by saying how grateful we are for the excellent +cooperation we have received from the Government of Indonesia, and in particular, from the law +enforcement and security institutions in Indonesia. We are very grateful for not only the +cooperation and protection that has been provided to our facilities, but also to the strong +statements condemning violence from the President, the Foreign Mihister, and others. +In consultation with the Government of Indonesia, we have temporarily, for tomorrow, closed +our facilities. We want to be sure that law enforcement in Indonesia has the ability to do what it +needs to do to make sure that there is no disruption of civil order and security. So we are +cooperating completely, and we're very grateful for the strong leadership provided by Indonesia. +FOREIGN MINISTER NATALEGAWA: Hello, (inaudible), if I may just also respond. +Precisely as the Secretary had said, the decision by the United States Government to close +temporarily its embassies and consulates tomorrow in Indonesia is a decision that's been made +based on communication and conversation between the authorities in Indonesia and the United +States as well. So in other words, it is an informed decision, a decision that is not intended to +show any unfriendly intent on the part of anyone, but it is what it is, and it's quite some — it's the +kind of step that governments actually carry out when situations requires it, even in our case. +Some of our embassies abroad, when the situation requires us to have a temporary closing of the +embassy, we do that as well. So it is something that is quite regular and something that is +actually coordinated as well. +But if I may just broaden the subject matter, I think as our President had said in the past, +Indonesian Government the Indonesian people, even, obviously cannot and would not condone +the — any acts of violence against diplomatic premises, against diplomatic personnel, because +that is, truly — would be a challenge to the efficient and a proper conduct of relations among +states. So that's our point of departure. +At the same time, of course, beyond the immediate issue of protection of the embassies, we have +still ahead of us the challenge of how to prevent the kind of situations where we are now at in +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

We've had the opportunity to meet in Islamabad and other +settings, but I am very pleased that we would have this chance to exchange views on our bilateral +relationship as well as regional and global issues. +I want to begin by addressing the events of the day and the past week. Today, we've once again +seen protests in several cities in Pakistan. Unfortunately, some of those protests have turned +violent and, sadly, resulted in loss of life. I want to thank the Government of Pakistan for their +efforts to protect our Embassy in Islamabad and consulates in Lahore, Peshawar, and Karachi. +And I want to be clear, as I have said on numerous occasions, the violence we have seen cannot +be tolerated. There is no justification for violence. Of course, there is provocation, and we have +certainly made clear that we do not in any way support provocation. We found the video that's at +the core of this series of events offensive, disgusting, reprehensible. +But that does not provide justification for violence, and therefore it is important for responsible +leaders, indeed responsible people everywhere, to stand up and speak out against violence and +particularly against those who would exploit this difficult moment to advance their own +extremist ideologies. +Yesterday afternoon when I briefed the Congress, I made it clear that keeping our people +everywhere in the world safe is our top priority. What happened in Benghazi was a terrorist +attack, and we will not rest until we have tracked down and brought to justice the terrorists who +murdered four Americans. And we are taking aggressive measures at all of our posts to protect +our staffs and their families along with locally employed people who provide so many important +contributions to the work of our missions. +The Foreign Minister and I will have a chance to cover a full range of subjects today, and it is no +secret that the past year and a half has been challenging for Pakistan and the United States. And +we still have work to do to get our bilateral relationship to the point where we would like it to be, +but we both recognize that we can achieve more when we work together on a focused agenda.

I look forward to seeing President Zardari next week +at the UN General Assembly. At each meeting, we are working to identify the strategic goals we +share — and there are many — and the concrete actions we can each take to accomplish them. +Our number one shared priority remains pursuing our joint counterterrorism objectives to ensure +the security of American and Pakistani citizens alike. We face a common threat from a common +enemy, and we must confront terrorism and extremism together. Earlier this month, I designated +the Haqqani Network as a Foreign Terrorist Organization so we could make full use of every +available legal authority to end their deadly attacks. Pakistan's parliament has called for +expelling foreign fighters so that Pakistan's territory can be fully under control of the Pakistani +Government and cannot be used to launch attacks against other nations. +And the follow-through on this is challenging but necessary, and we look forward to working +with Pakistan as they continue to address these problems. We have both pledged to support a +secure, stable, and prosperous Afghanistan, which is vital for the security of the region. And I +want to thank Foreign Minister Khar for Pakistan's reopening of the NATO supply lines to allow +the movement of goods to Afghanistan. +We will discuss the successful first meeting of the Safe Passage Working Group in Islamabad +which brought together Afghan, Pakistani, and U.S. representatives to advance the peace process +in Afghanistan. The Pakistani Government's public call for insurgents to come forward and talk +with the Afghan Government was particularly important. We are ready to work together to build +on these steps, and we will continue our discussions through bilateral consultations and the U.S.- +Afghanistan-Pakistan Core Group. +Now, of course, our relationship goes far beyond our shared security concerns, and today we will +discuss the many other ways in which we work together, particularly to create economic +opportunity for Pakistanis. Foreign Minister Khar and I agree that we need to shift our economic +relationship from aid to trade and investment. We are working to help Pakistan attract more +private sector investment. We hope to finalize a bilateral investment treaty soon. And we've +created a Pakistan private investment initiative to help more of Pakistan's small and medium +sized companies get access to capital. +Over the past few years, we have seen Pakistan's civilian government begin to put down stronger +roots. And if elections proceed as planned next year, it will mark the first time in Pakistan's +history that a civilian-led government has served its full term. The United States supports +Pakistan's economic development, and we have said many times that we want to see democracy +succeed in Pakistan. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739812 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

I am pleased to welcome the Foreign Minister from +Tunisia I'm looking forward to our meeting, We obviously have a great deal to discuss, and I +want to thank the Foreign Minister and the Government of Tunisia for their efforts over the last +week to help secure our Embassy and the American Cooperative School of Tunis following the +violent assaults of last Friday. +We are monitoring events closely today. There is no higher priority for President Obama and +myself than the safety of our people. We've taken a number of steps around the world to +augment security and to protect our personnel at diplomatic posts. And we are working closely +with host governments in this effort. +As I have said before and as is embodied in the Vienna Convention and other international +agreements, all governments have the duty, the solemn duty, to defend diplomatic missions. +They must be safe and protected places so that governments can exchange views and work on +many important issues, and leaders across the world must stand up and be counted in rejecting +violence and holding violent actors accountable. +We are working closely with the Government of Tunisia They have assisted us in enhancing the +security of our facilities. We've also discussed with them the imperative of bringing to justice +those responsible for these violent attacks. And we have offered and will continue to look for +ways that we can assist the new Government of Tunisia in ensuring the rule of law throughout +their country, first and foremost for the people of Tunisia themselves. We look forward to +continuing to build our hew partnership with the Tunisian Government and people. Our +relationship is built around the shared principles of all democracies — a commitment to +nonviolence, to tolerance, and inclusivity for all people, and to upholding the rule of law. +The Tunisian people have bravely put themselves on the road to democracy. They were the first +of the Arab revolutions and they have made important progress in a very short period of time. +They have worked too hard and sacrificed too much over too many years to see their progress +hijacked at derailed by extremists with Ulric own a5,-. +, +,encia.

The Al-Keeb government is clearly facing many crises, the major one being the inability so +far to implement what appeared to be fairly detailed plans by Minister of Interior Fauzi and Minister of Defense Juwaili to +incorporate 25k thuwar each (total 75k) into the security forces, armed forces and into the private sector (jobs, training, +education). the main obstacles appear to be inability to implement plans by any of the GOL ministers so far and lack of +funds although we hope there will be a solution to that soon. Also, none of the militias appears willing to budge without +seeing some proof that others are also willing to do so. +I am not sure about HRC contact ascribing these problems mainly to Bel-Haj, whose star we believed had fallen over the +past several weeks. The Islamists are demanding their share of the political pie like everyone else-no more and no less. I +met with a Libyan contact yesterday who had just met with an Islamist-led militiaman from Zintan. The leader of this group +demanded that women's role be inscribed in the constitution as per Sharia'-if that did not happen this guy threatened to +take up arms again. Sarkis-the new but now deposed Economy Minister is an example of the power of the street and +different voices clamoring for different things. He was a technocrat whom we dealt with in the past but because of the +perception that he was ""part of the old regime"" he had to go even though al-Keeb regretted the decision since Sarkis was +an able technocrat. So, the bottom line is that the disarming and reintegration of the militias is not going as well as we +would have liked though the Minister of Interior told me on the margins of the PM discussion with DDCI Morrell today that +things on that score were going ""well."" One positive ray of light is that Tripoli Local Council reps told us today that they +had begun registering thuwar to determine which of the three possible categories they could stream into. Another +disturbing trned which may be happening is the emergence of organized crime perhaps fueled by old regime elements +including Snussi and al-Baghdadi. According to MOI sources have expressed real concern about an unholy +alliance of former Qadhafi loyalists, criminals who escaped from prison, and odd assortments of different thuwar. They are +apparently getting money, terrorizing the cities by night and engaging in human trafficking, drugs, gunrunning and alcohol +backed by old regime money. The motivation would be economic and political (creating chaos and undermining +stability). Our Legatt reps will meet with the e the Brits tomorrow to see if we can respond to MOI request for help in +training a team to deal with this possible new and troubling phenomenon. Not sure whether this crime phenomenon is +connected to the murder of my good friend Hugo deSamie, a french businessman who had been involved in deals with +the old regime and was back trying his hand with the new group. +It is not clear whether he will survive given the +intense pressure the PM is coming under from the eastern Obeidi tribes-they want one of theirs in the position as +compensation for the murder of Yusuf Obeidi. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739813 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

HRC interested in your views. +SOURCE: Sources with direct access to the Libyan National Transitional Council, as well as the highest levels +of European Governments, and Western Intelligence and security services. +1.During the last week of December 2011, and the first week of2012, Libya'sPrime Minister +Abdurrahim el-Keib and President Mustafa Abdul Jai engaged in a series of emergency planning meetings +attempting to deal with specific issues threatening the stability of the new National Transitional Council (NTC) +Government. According to extremely sensitive sources speaking in strict confidence, paramount among these +issues are the questions of disarming and rewarding the regional militias who bore the majority of the fighting +against the regime of Muammar al Qaddafi, as well as the related issue of finding ministers and senior +administrators for the new government who are acceptable to these revolutionary forces. These individuals +noted that on four occasions, beginning on December 23, 2011, groups or angry militiamen came to el-Keib's +office and demanded better treatment, a clear message of support for the role of Islamic law, and the removal +of former Qaddafi advisors from the new government. +2. (Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, el-Keib is genuinely concerned that this +situation could spiral out of control and threatens the regime. He also suspects that much of the unrest is being +stirred by General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj and his conservative Islamist supporters. By staying out of the +new government, Belhaj has established a position from which he can criticize their actions and appointments +without concern or control. That said, el — Keib has been told by his contacts in the Moslem Brotherhood (MB) +that even Belhaj has been surprised that the unrest in the militias has begun to manifest itself in fighting +between groups that previously shared the same goals and operated under Belhaj's loose command. This is +particularly true in the case of the increasingly violent conflicts between the Misrata and Zintan regional +militias.) +3. Inan effort to address these problems el-Keib is making changes in his new administration, removing +Minister of Economics Taher Sherkaz, who, as a former economic advisor to Qaddafi, was a particular target of +the militiamen. In the opinion of well informed individuals, el-Keib's closest and most influential advisors are +experts with economic backgrounds and experience dealing with Western firms and governments. The most +influential of this group are Minister of Oil Abdulrahman Ben Yezza, Minister of Finance Hassan Ziglam, +National Oil Company chief Nuni Berrusien, and Ngteb Obeda from the Libyan Stock Exchange. +4. (Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, el-Keib and Jalil are also very concerned +over growing criticism that these technocrats are puppets of various Western governments and firms.

This trend is also affecting national security, where, despite el-Keila's efforts to +maintain a balance between the Islamists, regional commanders, and the national army, a potentially +dangerous conflict has arisen over the position of Chief of Staff of the National Army. El-Kieb, according to this +individual, believes that he must settle this matter in short order to avoid provoking security concerns among +foreign allies and businesses contacts.) +5. According to a knowledgeable individual, in late December aotiel-Kieb resisted efforts by General +Khalifa Belgasint Hefter to establish himself as the Chief of Staff of the National Army. Hefter, who lived in the +United States for manyyears and is believed by Belhaj and others to have a relationship with the U.S. +Government, is using his popularity among the officer corps of the regular NTC army to support his claim to be +Chief of Staff. This produced heated protests from militia leaders and in late December 2011e1-Keib named +deputy Minister of Defense Colonel Yussef al-Mangoush, to be Chief of Staff. In the opinion of one source, this +is a problematic choice, since el-Keib is replacing the supposedly pro-American Haftar with al-Mangoush who +commanded one of Qaddafi's elite Special Forces units, even after the revolution began. This individual +believes that el-Keib's decision was driven by personal animosity toward Haftar, and the influence of Minister +of Defense Osama alehiwali. The situation is far from resolved, as Haftar and his supporters, particularly in +the Benghazi garrison, continue to claim that the General is the true Chief of Staff. El-Keib and aleruwali are +working to reconcile all of the elements in this conflict as quickly as possible, before the supporters of the two +claimants begin fighting. In the meantime, el-Keib has stated in private that he fully expects Belhaj to attack +al-Mangoush, but the Prime Minister believes that the Colonel is the only officer strong enough to disarm the +militias and avoid a civil war. +6. At the same time, a very sensitive source added that el-Keila and Jalil are attempting to reconcile the +fighting between Misrata and Zintan forces in Tripoli by naming Misrata leader Fawzi Abd All as Minister of +the Interior and alsJuwali, who was commander of the Zintan militia„ as Minister of Defense. To date, +according to this individual, this effort has met with limited success, as the fighting has continued and the +militias are refusing to disarm until their demands regarding living standards are met. +7. (Source Comment: One very sensitive source noted, that el-Keib is aware of the fact that he is +running out of time to stabilize the situation in Libya. He believes that if he does not disarm the militias and +meet their demands in the next six months there is a good chance of increased fighting among rival groups that +could lead to civil war. In any event, he realizes that the ongoing instability will cause Western governments, +firms, and banks, to hesitate before committing themselves to long term relationships with Libya. El-Keib +believes that Belhaj and his advisors have made the same judgment, and are waiting to fill any vacuum created +by this violence, by establishing a conservative Islamic Republic.) +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739813 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Sid +CONFIDENTIAL +January 23, 2012 +For: HRC +From Sid +Re: Libya internal strife +SOURCE: Sources with direct access to the Libyan National Transitional Council, as well as the highest levels of +European Governments, and Western Intelligence and security services. +1. On the evening of January 22, 2012, according to an official with access to the leadership of the National +Transitional Government (NTC), Libyan President Mustafa Abdul &rill spoke at length with Prime Minister Abdurrahim el- +Keib, stating in a heated exchange that el-Keib's government must take the steps necessary to address the complaints of +the demobilized fighters from the 2011revolution. Jai pointed out that the new government has been discussing this +situation since it was formed in October 2011, and matters have now reached a crisis point, with a group of more than +2,000 disgruntled veterans, supported by students, attacking the NTC offices in Benghazi on January 21, destroying +computer equipment and NTC files. These demonstrators, some of whom threw Molotov cocktails at the NTC +headquarters building, continue to demand better medical care, jobs, payment for their time in the revolutionary army, and +a commitment to transparency on the part of the el-Keib regime; particularly the appointment of cabinet members and +senior officials. +2. According to this source, when el-Keib replied, pointing out that demonstrators were camped outside of his +office in Tripoli. He added that the government had to proceed in a measured and professional manner, Jalil stated in +angry tones, that NTC staffers were beaten and could have been killed during the January 21 incident, pointing out that +this is how the rebellion against IVIuammar al Qaddair began in February 2011. Jalil also warned that Islamist leader +General Abdel Hakim Alamin Beittaj and his supporters, particularly militia commanders from Zintan, Misrata, and other +western regions, are anxiously waiting for the NTC government to collapse. Their goal, in the opinion of this individual, is +to eventually move in and establish a strict Islamic state. Jalii, added that his contacts in the Egyptian Muslim +Brotherhood had been in touch during the preceding week, warning that the threat from Belhaj is very real. El-Keib stated +that he must press Minister of Defense Osama al-Juwafi and Interior Minister Fawzi Abd Ali to be more efficient in +administering their positions. According to this individual, el-Keib fears that al-Juwali, who was a western commander +during the revolution, may be maintaining a secret relationship with Belhaj and his allies. In response, Jalil warned el-Keib +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739824 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

He complains that his principal advisors, Minister of Oil Abdulrahrnan Ben Yezza and Minister of Finance +Hassan Ziglam, have been too timid in resolving the questions associated with contracts involving foreign firms, both old +and new. At present it appears that whenever one official raises a question regarding an agreement the entire matter is +put on hold and delayed. In the opinion of this source, el-Keib knows that without these agreements he cannot meet the +demands of the veterans and the students. El-Keib stated in confidence, that he may have made a serious mistake in +removing the former oil/finance minister All Tarhouni from the government. El-Keib also noted that Jalil is shaken by the +January 21 attack on NTC headquarters and is searching for ways to appease the demonstrators. Most recently he +asked Abdel Hafidh Ghoza, his principal deputy and NTC spokesman to step down. Ghoza, who comes from the +Benghazi area, was particularly unpopular with the western troops.) +4.

TIRC +From: Sid +Re Libya internal strife +SOURCE, Sources with direct access to the Libyan National Transitional Council, as well as +the highest levels of European Governments, and Western Intelligence and security services. +1. On the evening of January 22, 2012, according to an official with access to the +leadership of the National Transitional Government (WC), Libyan President Mustafa Abdul +Jalil spoke at length with Prime Minister Abdurrahim el-Keib, stating in a heated exchange that +el-Keib's government must take the steps necessary to address the complaints of the demobilized +fighters from the 2011revolufion Jain pointed out that the new government has been discussing +this situation since it was formed in October 2011, and matters have now reached a crisis point, +with a group of more than 2,000 disgruntled veterans, supported by students, attacking the NTC +offices in Benghazi on January 21, destroying computer equipment and NTC files. These +demonstrators, some of whom threw Molotov cocktails at the NTC headquarters building, +continue to demand better medical care, jobs, payment for their time in the revolutionary army, +and a commitment to transparency on the part of the el-Keib regime, particularly the +appointment of cabinet members and senior officials +2. According to this source, when el-Keib replied, pointing out that demonstrators were +camped outside of his office in Tripoli He added that the government had to proceed in a +measured and professional manner, Jafil stated in angry tones, that NTC staffers were beaten and +could have been killed during the January 21 incident, pointing out that this is how the rebellion +against Muammar al Qaddafi began in February 2011. JAI also warned that Islamist leader +General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj and his supporters, particularly militia commanders from +Zintan, Misrata, and other western regions, are anxiously waiting for the NTC government to +collapse. Their goal, in the opinion of this individual, is to eventually move in and establish a +strict Islamic state Jalil, added that his contacts in the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood had been +in touch during the preceding week, warning that the threat from Belhaj is very real El-Keib +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739824 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

According to this individual, el-Keib +fears that al-Juwali, who was a western commander during the revolution, may be maintaining a +secret relationship with Belhaj and his allies. In response, Jail warned el-Keib to avoid trying to +use the regular military forces posted around Benghazi under General Khalifa Belqasim Haftar in +an effort to restrain the former militia troops as such a step could lead to civil war. +3.(Source Comment: In the opinion of an extremely well placed individual, el-Keib is, +in fact, increasingly frustrated by the inefficiency in his regime and the inability of his ministers +and administrators to arrange contracts with foreign firms. He complains that his principal +advisors, Minister of Oil Abdulrahman Ben Yezza and Minister of Finance Hassan Ziglam, have +been too timid in resolving the questions associated with contracts involving foreign firms, both +old and new. At present it appears that whenever one official raises a question regarding an +agreement the entire matter is put on hold and delayed. In the opinion of this source, el-Keib +knows that without these agreements he cannot meet the demands of the veterans and the +students. El-Keib stated in confidence, that he may have made a serious mistake in removing the +former oil/finance minister Ali Tarhouni from the government. El-Keib also noted that Jalil is +shaken by the January 21 attack on NTC headquarters and is searching for ways to appease the +demonstrators. Most recently he asked Abdel — Hafidh Ghoza, his principal deputy and NTC +spokesman to step down. Ghoza, who comes from the Benghazi area, was particularly +unpopular with the western troops.) +4.

We also reviewed all available intelligence to determine if there might be follow-on +attacks against our people or facilities in Libya or elsewhere in the world. +As the Intelligence Community collects and analyzes more information related to the attack, our understanding +of the event continues to evolve. In the immediate aftermath. there was information that led us to assess that the +attack began spontaneously following protests earlier that day at our embassy in Cairo. We provided that initial +assessment to Executive Branch officials and members of Congress, who used that information to discuss the +attack publicly and provide updates as they became available. Throughout our investigation we continued to +emphasize that information gathered was preliminary and evolving. +As we learned more about the attack, we revised our initial assessment to reflect new information indicating that +it was a deliberate and organized terrorist attack carried out by extremists. It remains unclear if any group or +person exercised overall command and control of the attack, and if extremist group leaders directed their +members to participate. However, we do assess that some of those involved were linked to gmups affiliated +with or sympathetic to al-Qa`ida. We continue to make progress, but there remain many unanswered questions. +As more information becomes available our analysis will continue to evolve and we will obtain a more +complete understanding of the circumstances surrounding the terrorist attack. +We continue to support the ongoing FBI investigation and the State Department review of the Benghazi terrorist +attack, pmviding the full capabilities and resources of the Intelligence Community to those efforts. We also will +continue to meet our responsibility to keep Congress fully and currently informed. For its part, the Intelligence +Community will continue to follow the information about the tragic events in Benghazi wherever it leads. The +President demands and expects that we will do this, as do Congress and the American people.

That fatwa, if +not precisely the starting point in our modem confrontation with Islamic extremism, was a +major landmark. The fatwa was dropped in 1998 and Rushdie is out of hiding, but he is still +careful. His book tour for ""Joseph Anton"" (entitled for the pseudonym he used in his +clandestine life) won't be taking him to Islamabad or Cairo. +Rushdie grew up in a secular Muslim family, the son of an Islam scholar. His relationship to +Islam was academic, then literary, before it became excruciatingly personal. His memoir is +not a handbook on how America should deal with the Muslim world. But he brings to that +subject a certain moral authority and the wisdom of an unusually motivated thinker. I invited +him to help me draw some lessons from the stormy Arab Summer. +The first and most important thing Rushdie will tell you is, it's not about religion. Not then, +not now. +When the founding zealot of revolutionary Iran, Ayatollah Khomeini, issued his Rushdie +death warrant in 1989, the imam was not defending the faith; he was trying to regenerate +enthusiasm for his regime, sapped by eight years of unsuccessful war with Iraq. Likewise, +Muslim clerics in London saw the fatwa against a British Indian novelist as an opportunity +to arouse British Muslims, who until that point were largely unstirred by sectarian politics. +""This case was a way for the mosque to assert a kind of primacy over the community,"" the +novelist said the other day. ""I think something similar is going on now."" +It's pretty clear that the protests against that inane video were not spontaneous. Antisecular +and anti-American zealots, beginning with a Cairo TV personality whose station is financed +by Saudi fundamentalists, seized on the video as a way to mobilize pressure on the start-up +governments in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya. The new governments•condemned the violence +and called in police to protect American diplomatic outposts, but not before a good bit of +nervous wobbling. +(One of the principal goals of the extremists, I was reminded by experts at Human Rights +First, who follow the region vigilantly, is to pressure these transitional governments to enact +and enforce strict laws against blasphemy. These laws can then be used to purge secularists +and moderates.) +Like the fanatics in the Middle East and North Africa, our homegrown hatemongers have an +interest in making this out to be a great clash of faiths.

But this is the closest thing we have to +a socially acceptable form of bigotry. And their rants feed the anti-American opportunists. +Rushdie acknowledges that there are characteristics of Islamic culture that make it tinder for +the inciters; an emphasis on honor and shame, and in recent decades a paranoiac sense of the +world conspiring against them. We can argue who is more culpable — the hostile West, the +sponsors, the appeasers, the fanatics themselves — but Islam has been particularly +susceptible to the rise of identity politics, Rushdie says. ""You define yourself by what +offends you. You define yourself by what outrages you."" +But blaming Islamic culture dismisses the Muslim majorities who are not enraged, let alone +violent, and it leads to a kind of surrender; Oh, it's just the Muslims, nothing to be done. I +detect a whiff of this cultural fatalism in Mitt Romney's patronizing remarks about the +superiority of Israeli culture and the backwardness of Palestinian culture. That would explain +his assertion, on that other notorious video, that an accommodation with the Palestinians is +""almost unthinkable."" That's a strangely defeatist line of thought for a man who professes to +be an optimist and a problem-solver. +Romney and Rushdie are a little more in tune when it comes to mollifying the tender +feelings of irate Muslims. +In his new book, Rushdie recounts being urged by the British authorities who were +protecting him to ""lower the temperature"" by issuing a statement that could be taken for an +apology. He does so. It fills him almost immediately with regret, and the attacks on him are +unabated. He ""had taken the weak position and was therefore treated as a weakling,"" he +writes. +Of the current confrontation, he says, ""I think it's very important that we hold our ground. +It's very important to say, 'We live like this.' ""Rushdie made his post-fatwa life in America +in part because he reveres the freedoms, including the freedom, not so protected in other +Western democracies, to say hateful, racist, blasphemous things. +""Terrible ideas, reprehensible ideas, do not disappear if you ban them,"" he told me. ""They go +underground. They acquire a kind of glamour of taboo. In the harsh light of day, they are out +there and, like vampires, they die in the sunlight."" +And so he would have liked a more robust White House defense of the rights that made the +noxious video possible. +""It's not for the American government to regret what American citizens do.

But I agree that the administration pushed up against the line that separates +prudence from weakness. And the White House request that Google consider taking down +the anti-Muslim video, however gentle the nudge, was a mistake. +By far the bigger mistake, though, would be to write off the aftermath of the Arab Spring as +a lost cause. +It is fairly astounding to hear conservatives who were once eager to invade Iraq — +ostensibly to plant freedom in the region — now giving up so quickly. on fledgling +democracies that might actually be won over without 10 bloody years of occupation.

Or insisting +that we bully and blackmail the new governments to conform to our expectations. +These transition governments present an opportunity. Fortifying the democratic elements in +the post-Arab Spring nation-building, without discrediting them as American stooges, is a +delicate business. The best argument we have is not our aid money, though that plays a part. +It is the choice between two futures, between building or failing to build a rule of law, an +infrastructure of rights, and an atmosphere of tolerance.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +Sen. John McCain renewed his attacks on U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice on Tuesday, but he's gone soft on +Hillary. +As she wraps up her tenure at Foggy Bottom and mulls over a possible 2016 White House bid, Secretary of +State Hillary Clinton's decade-old bipartisan friendship with McCain appears to have helped shield her from +GOP fire — even as her agency finds itself in the thick of a partisan battle over Benghazi. +But McCain and Clinton also are battle-tested veterans of Washington who have seen their families become +targets of nasty political attacks — and who have often turned to laughter to get through it all. For Clinton, it +was Monica Ii ewinsky; for McCain it was the smear campaign during the 2000 GOP primary aimed at his +Bangladesh-born adopted daughter. +""I think it was the best version of strange bedfellows and at the same time a perfect match,"" Tmnera Luzzatto, +Clinton's Senate chief of staff from 2001 to 2009, said of her former boss's relationship with McCain. ""They +share a sense of public service but also a sense of humor."" +McCain, a leading voice on defense and foreign policy matters, has spent weeks belittling Rice as ""not very +bright,"" incompetent and not qualified"" to succeed Clinton as secretary of state. Rice s offense: incorrectly +characterizing the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Libya as sparked by spontaneous protests rather than as a +deliberate act of terrorism --- a lapse she has blamed on administration talking points that were approved by +intelligence officials. +But the Arizona Republican has largely spared Clinton from any criticism over the Sept. 11 Benghazi assault +that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. When Clinton tried to fall on her sword, +saying she alone was responsible for diplomatic security, McCain wouldn't have it He called Clinton's act +""laudable"" but was adamant that the buck stops with President Barack Obama and that he would try to block +Rice's possible nomination as the nation's top diplomat. +While McCain seemed to dial back his attacks on Rice over the weekend, the senator was at it again Tuesday +after he and fellow GOP Sens. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire sat +down with Rice at the Capitol to quiz her about why the Obarna administration mischaracterized the attack as +other than terrorism. +""We are significantly troubled by many of the answers that we got and some that we didn't get,"" McCain told +reporters after the meeting.

I've been critical of everybody's actions."" +It wasn't the first time this year that McCain came to the former New York senator's defense. In July, McCain +took to the Senate floor and denounced Rep. Michele Bachmann and four other House Republicans for alleging +that longtime Clinton aide Hurna Abedin was working with the Muslim Brotherhood to infiltrate the top rungs +of the U.S. government. +The allegations, McCain said in his speech, amount to an ""unwarranted and unfounded attack on an honorable +woman, a dedicated American and a loyal public servant?' +The gratitude from the Clinton camp that day was palpable, +""We were all so very moved when Sen.

The daughter of a World War II Navy officer herself, +Clinton admired McCain's military service, and the two spent countless hours together at markups and hearings +of the Senate Armed Services Committee after the Sept.

Though they had met only once or twice, Collins agreed to introduce Rice to the +Foreign Relations Committee in 2009 when Rice was nominated as the U.S. ambassador to the U.N. Rice's +grandparents immigrated from Jamaica to Portland, Maine. +""I don't bear any animus to her at all,"" the senator said. ""In fact, to the contrary."" +But she said she is ""troubled"" by Rice's role. ""If I wanted to be secretary of state,"" Collins observed, ""I would +not go on television and perform what was essentially a political role."" +Collins drew up a list of questions to ask Rice at their one-on-one hourlong meeting slated for Wednesday. She +wants Rice to explain how she could promote a story ""with such certitude"" about a spontaneous demonstration +over the anti-Muslim video that was so at odds with the classified information to which the ambassador had +access. (It was also at odds with common sense, given that there were Al Qaeda sympathizers among the rebel +army members that overthrew Muarrunar el-Qaddafi with help from the U.S. — an intervention advocated by +Rice — and Islamic extremist training camps in the Benghazi area.) +The F.B.I. interviewed survivors of the attack in Germany and, according to some senators, had done most of +the interviews of those on site by Sept. 15, the day before Rice went on TV, and established that there was no +protest. Collins wants to learn if the F.B.I. had failed to communicate that, or if they had communicated it and +Rice went ahead anyway? +When Rice heard the president of the Libyan National Congress tell Bob Schieffer on ""Face the Nation,"" right +before her appearance, that 50 people had been arrested who were either foreign or affiliated with or +sympathized with Al Qaeda, why did she push back with the video story? ""Why wouldn't she think what the +Libyan president said mattered?"" Collins wondered. +Why did Rice say on ABC News's ""This Week,"" that ""two of the four Americans who were killed were there +providing security""? Rice was referring to the two ex-Navy SEAL team members who were C.I.A. security +officers working on a base about a mile away. ""They weren't there to protect Ambassador Stevens,"" Collins +said. ""That wasn't their job."" +Rice also said that ""we had a substantial security presence with our personnel"" — which was clearly not the +case. Collins wants to know Rice's basis for saying on ABC that the attacks were ""a direct result of a heinous +and offensive video."" And why did she say ""a small number of people"" came to the consulate to protest, when +that phrase is not in her talking points? Collins is curious why Rice is not angrier, if, as she insists, she was +repeating what she was told. ""I'd be furious at the White House and F.B.I. and intelligence community for +destroying my credibility,"" the senator said. +Collins said that before she would support Rice for secretary of state, she needs to ascertain what was really +going on. ""Did they think admitting that it was an Al Qaeda attack would destroy the narrative of Libya being a +big success story?"" Collins asked. As one of the administration champions of intervening in Libya, Rice was +surely rooting for that success story herself. +More in Opinion (4 of 22 articles) +Editorial: The Pace of Leaving Afghanistan +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739840 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

A25 +HEADLINE: It's not about Rice +BYLINE: Richard Cohen +BODY: +In 1953, an Army officer by the name of Irving Peress was promoted from captain to major. Peress was a +leftist, possibly a communist, and word of his advancement in rank reached Sen. Joseph McCarthy in +Washington. He asserted that the promotion proved the Army was ""soft on communism,"" and he launched an +investigation that transfixed the nation. Peress, by the way, was a mere dentist. He was the Susan Rice of his +day. +Rice, of course, is a much more substantial figure. She is the U.N. ambassador, a friend of Barack Obama's +and a member of his Cabinet. Still, the attack on her is so disproportionate to what she is accused of having +done - just what was it, exactly? - that as in the Peress case, you have to conclude that there is something more +at work. +At first, I thought we were witnessing just another example of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) doing his +Rumpelstiltskin number - throwing a fit and stomping his feet. It was McCain who first leveled the solemn +charge that Rice had lied to the Sunday TV shows about the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. +She had characterized it as a spontaneous riot when it was, in fact, a planned attack by a local al-Qaeda affiliate. +But Rice was hewing to the early line established by the intelligence community. If the CIA and others were +wrong - or deceptive - then so, inevitably, was she. +Just as surely as day follows night, McCain's broadside was echoed by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). It +was soon taken up by 97 Republicans in the House who found Rice unqualified to become secretary of state - a +post to which she has not been nominated. ""Ambassador Rice is widely viewed as having willfully or +incompetently misled the American public,"" they bellowed. +I think Rice would make a dandy secretary of state. She's close to the president, and that matters a great +deal. But she is also seen as overly political and that, as much as her version of Benghazi, is what troubles some +others. Oddly enough, Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), a former presidential candidate and another potential +secretary of state, is seen as much more of a statesmen. He is indeed an independent foreign-policy thinker who +has, as in days of old, restored the prestige and importance of the Foreign Relations Committee, of which he is +chairman. +But the awful truth is that it hardly matters who Obama chooses.

A25 +HEADLINE: It's not about Rice +BYLINE: Richard Cohen +BODY: +In 1953, an Army officer by the name of Irving Peress was promoted from captain to major. Peress was a +leftist, possibly a communist, and word of his advancement in rank reached Sen. Joseph McCarthy in +Washington. He asserted that the promotion proved the Army was ""soft on communism,"" and he launched an +investigation that transfixed the nation. Peress, by the way, was a mere dentist. He was the Susan Rice of his +day. +Rice, of course, is a much more substantial figure. She is the U.N. ambassador, a friend of Barack Obama's +and a member of his Cabinet. Still, the attack on her is so disproportionate to what she is accused of having +done - just what was it, exactly? - that as in the Peress case, you have to conclude that there is something more +at work. +At first, I thought we were witnessing just another example of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) doing his +Rumpelstiltskin number - throwing a fit and stomping his feet. It was McCain who first leveled the solemn +charge that Rice had lied to the Sunday TV shows about the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. +She had characterized it as a spontaneous riot when it was, in fact, a planned attack by a local al-Qaeda affiliate. +But Rice was hewing to the early line established by the intelligence community. If the CIA and others were +wrong - or deceptive - then so, inevitably, was she. +Just as surely as day follows night, McCain's broadside was echoed by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). It +was soon taken up by 97 Republicans in the House who found Rice unqualified to become secretary of state - a +post to which she has not been nominated. ""Ambassador Rice is widely viewed as having willfully or +incompetently misled the American public,"" they bellowed. +I think Rice would make a dandy secretary of state. She's close to the president, and that matters a great +deal. But she is also seen as overly political and that, as much as her version of Benghazi, is what troubles some +others. Oddly enough, Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), a former presidential candidate and another potential +secretary of state, is seen as much more of a statesmen. He is indeed an independent foreign-policy thinker who +has, as in days of old, restored the prestige and importance of the Foreign Relations Committee, of which he is +chairman. +But the awful truth is that it hardly matters who Obama chooses. Foreign policy is run from the White +House and not the State Department.

At the same time +National Libyan Army (NLA) Chief of Staff General Youssef al Mangoush warned Zidan that the +Eastern tribes have rearmed and reequipped in the past three months and are preparing to reassert +their desire for a degree of autonomy in early 2013. Mangoush also advised that the situation in the +region between Benghazi and the Egyptian border may become increasingly complicated as Salafist +-fighters from Egypt continue to arrive in Benghazi. Mangoush reported that his staff officers have +been advised in secret by aids to Egyptian Army Chief of Staff, General Mohammed al-Sissi, that, +acting under instructions from Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi, military and security forces are +taking steps to detain or neutralize extreme Salafist pare-military groups and that a number of these +fighters are fleeing to Libya.

In addition, this sensitive source noted that Al-Arusi is also discussing the creation of a +company specializing in mechanical construction related to the oil and gas industry. This firm would +be based in Benghazi. The minister stated in private that he believes such a company can be +developed to compete with international firms in this very complex field. He also believes that such a +firm must be managed by experienced, scientifically-qualified Libyans, with reputations for honesty. +He noted that until as such a cadre is developed it may be desirable to use experts from Egypt to fill +the immediate needs of the firm. Al-Arusi believes this firm should have offices in all of the oil fields +and loading facilities. The minister also plans to establish an office in Benghazi, similar to Tripoli's oil +institute, a facility that will train students looking to pursue oil-related studies. In addition, al-Arusi is +making plans to reopen the Higher Petroleum Institute in Tobruk, which was closed by Qaddafi at the +beginning of the revolution.

According to this source, when el-Keib replied, pointing out that demonstrators were camped outside of his +office in Tripoli. He added that the government had to proceed in a measured and professional manner, Jalil stated in +angry tones, that NTC Staffers were beaten and could have been killed during the January 21 incident, pointing out that +this is how the rebellion against Muammar al Qaddafi began in February 2011.

El-Keib stated +that he must press Minister of Defense Osama al-Juwali and Interior Minister Fawzi Abd Ali to be more efficient in +administering their positions. According to this individual, el-Keib fears that al-Juwali, who was a western commander +during the revolution, may be maintaining a secret relationship with Belhaj and his allies. In response, Jai warned el-Keib +to avoid trying to use the regular military forces posted around Benghazi under General Khalifa Beloasim Hefter in an +effort to restrain the former militia troops as such a step could lead to civil war. +3.(Source Comment: In the opinion of an extremely well placed individual, el-Keib is, in fact, increasingly +frustrated by the inefficiency in his regime and the inability of hie ministers and administrators to arrange contracts with +foreign firms. He complains that his principal advisors, Minister of Oil Abdulrahman Ben Yezza and Minister of Finance +Hassan Zigiam, have been too timid in resolving the questions associated with contracts involving foreign firms, both old +and new. At present it appearsthat whenever one official raises a question regarding an agreement the entire matter is +put on hold and delayed.

El-Kelb also noted that Jalil is shaken by the +January 21 attack on NTC headquarters end is searching for ways to appease the demonstrators. Most recently he +asked Abdel - Haltdh Ghoza, his principal deputy and NiC spokesman to step down. Ghoza, who comes from the +Benghazi area, was particularly unpopular with the western troops.) +4. Following the discussion with Jalil, el-Kieb ordered Ziglarn and Ngeb Obedoi, the head of the Stock Exchange, +to move with all possible speed to address the issue of the foreign contracts and arrange for new vendors to provide the +services demanded by the veterans and students. In this discussion he pointed out that if they cannot deal with this +situation they will not have to worry about the national elections in 2012, Libya will be an Islamic Republic, with BeMO as +the ruler.

(Source Comment: According to an extremely sensitive source, el-Keib spoke secretly with Hefter, stating that +he, and those troops loyal to him, should be prepared to move to protect the government in the event of increased +violence. This effort could include moving against Belhaj and attacking militia forces before they can unite and +organize. El-Keib emphasized that this is for planning purposes only, and no action should be taken until el-Kelb gives +the order. He emphasized that he will do everything possible to avoid civil war, but he is now concerned that Jai will be +unable to deal with the level of hostility against the NTC, and cannot be counted on to take strong positions against Belhaj +and his supporters.

That conclusion is obvious. The +""consulate"" was just a private residence taken over for this purpose by the US in the city. It was not +constructed to be a US government building in a potentially hostile city. +I met a person who worked there when I was in Benghazi in June, and she told me that it wasn't even +clear if the consulate would be retained after the first of this year. It was possibly temporary, +depending on Congressional funding. (The Tea Party House hasn't been good on meeting requests for +embassy security funds). +The more interesting question than why ad hoc arrangements should have been made for a consulate +during and after the Libyan revolution (the answer to which seems fairly obvious) is, who is +responsible for the string of assassinations and acts of violence in the city, of which the RPG attack on +the consulate on September 11 was only one? Benghazi, with a population of over one million in a +country of 6.5 million, is Libya's second largest city and was the epicenter of the revolution against the +government of Muammar Qaddafi in 2011. +On November 22, Benghazi police chief Farej Darssi was assassinated. In October a police colonel +barely avoided death— his car was wired to explode. A Libyan intelligence officer was killed in +September. A general was assassinated in August. Some of these figures had worked for Qaddafi but +had defected to the revolution. Qaddafi's security forces were responsible for the 1996 massacre of +hardline fundamentalists at Abu Salim prison, and for making others just disappear. Likely the same +shadowy cells that attacked the US consulate are behind the attacks on Benghazi police and army +officers. +There may have been a break in the case. Last Saturday, Benghazi security forces loyal to the elected +government in Tripoli, captured a man they suspected of being involved with the groups behind the +violence. And, he appears to have been willing to spill the beans. So let's call him the Libyan Deep +Throat. +Deep Throat is so knowledgeable about the conspiracies facing the city and so dangerous to those +hatching them that the latter immediately attempted to spring him from jail. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739860 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Sources with direct access to the Libyan National Transitional Council, as well as +the highest levels of European Governments, and Western Intelligence and security services. +1. On the evening of January 22, 2012, according to an official with access to the +leadership of the National Transitional Government (NTC), Libyan President Mustafa Abdul +Jalil spoke at length with Prime Minister Abdurrahim el-Keib, stating in a heated exchange that +el-Keib's government must take the steps necessary to address the complaints of the demobilized +fighters from the 2011revolution. Jalil pointed out that the new government has been discussing +this situation since it was formed in October 2011, and matters have now reached a crisis point, +with a group of more than 2,000 disgruntled veterans, supported by students, attacking the NTC +offices in Benghazi on January 21, destroying computer equipment and NTC files. These +demonstrators, some of whom threw Molotov cocktails at the NTC headquarters building, +continue to demand better medical care, jobs, payment for their time in the revolutionary army, +and a commitment to transparency on the part of the el-Keib regime; particularly the +appointment of cabinet members and senior officials. +2. According to this source, when el-Keib replied, pointing out that demonstrators were +camped outside of his office in Tripoli. He added that the government had to proceed in a +measured and professional manner, Jalil stated in angry tones, that NTC staffers were beaten and +could have been killed during the January 21 incident, pointing out that this is how the rebellion +against Muammar al Qaddafi began in February 2011. Jalil also warned that Islamist leader +General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj and his supporters, particularly militia commanders from +Zintan, Misrata, and other western regions, are anxiously waiting for the NTC government to +collapse. Their goal, in the opinion of this individual, is to eventually move in and establish a +strict Islamic state. Jalil, added that his contacts in the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood had been +in touch during the preceding week, warning that the threat from Belhaj is very real.

According to this individual, el-Keib +fears that al-Juwali, who was a western commander during the revolution, may be maintaining a +secret relationship with Belhaj and his allies In response, Jalil warned el-Keib to avoid trying to +use the regular military forces posted around Benghazi under General Khalifa Belqasim Haftar in +an effort to restrain the former militia troops as such a step could lead to civil war. +3.(Source Comment: In the opinion of an extremely well placed individual, el-Keib is, +in fact, increasingly frustrated by the inefficiency in his regime and the inability of his ministers +and administrators to arrange contracts with foreign firms. He complains that his principal +advisors, Minister of Oil Abdulrahman Ben Yezza and Minister of Finance Hassan Ziglam, have +been too timid in resolving the questions associated with contracts involving foreign firms, both +old and new. At present it appears that whenever one official raises a question regarding an +agreement the entire matter is put on hold and delayed. In the opinion of this source, el-Keib +knows that without these agreements he cannot meet the demands of the veterans and the +students. El-Keib stated in confidence, that he may have made a serious mistake in removing the +former oil/finance minister Ali Tarhouni from the government. El-Keib also noted that Jalil is +shaken by the January 21 attack on NTC headquarters and is searching for ways to appease the +demonstrators. Most recently he asked Abdel — Hafidh Ghoza, his principal deputy and NTC +spokesman to step down. Ghoza, who comes from the Benghazi area, was particularly +unpopular with the western troops.) +4. Following the discussion with Jalil, el-Kieb ordered Ziglam and Ngeb Obeda, the head +of the Stock Exchange, to move with all possible speed to address the issue of the foreign +contracts and arrange for new vendors to provide the services demanded by the veterans and +students. In this discussion he pointed out that if they cannot deal with this situation they will +not have to worry about the national elections in 2012, Libya will be an Islamic Republic, with +Belhaj as the ruler. El-Keib pointed out that foreign governments and large oil firms must be +aware of this threat and that this will frighten them into meeting the conditions for foreign +contracts set out by the NTC. +5. (Source Comment: According to an extremely sensitive source, el-Keib spoke +secretly with Haftar, stating that he, and those troops loyal to him, should be prepared to move to +protect the government in the event of increased violence. This effort could include moving +against Belhaj and attacking militia forces before they can unite and organize. El-Keib +emphasized that this is for planning purposes only, and no action should be taken until el-Keib +gives the order. He emphasized that he will do everything possible to avoid civil war, but he is +now concerned that Jalil will be unable to deal with the level of hostility against the NTC, and +cannot be counted on to take strong positions against Belhaj and his supporters.

That conclusion is obvious. The +""consulate"" was just a private residence taken over for this purpose by the US in the city. It was not +constructed to be a US government building in a potentially hostile city. +I met a person who worked there when I was in Benghazi in June, and she told me that it wasn't even +clear if the consulate would be retained after the first of this year It was possibly temporary, +depending on Congressional funding. (The Tea Party House hasn't been good on meeting requests for +embassy security funds). +The more interesting question than why ad hoc arrangements should have been made for a consulate +during and after the Libyan revolution (the answer to which seems fairly obvious) is, who is +responsible for the string of assassinations and acts of violence in the city, of which the RPG attack on +the consulate on September 11 was only one? Benghazi, with a population of over one million in a +country of 6.5 million, is Libya's second largest city and was the epicenter of the revolution against the +government of Muammar Qaddafi in 2011. +On November 22, Benghazi police chief Farej Darssi was assassinated. In October a police colonel +barely avoided death— his car was wired to explode. A Libyan intelligence officer was killed in +September. A general was assassinated in August. Some of these figures had worked for Qaddafi but +had defected to the revolution. QacIdafi's security forces were responsible for the 1996 massacre of +hardline fundamentalists at Abu Salim prison, and for making others just disappear. Likely the same +shadowy cells that attacked the US consulate are behind the attacks on Benghazi police and army +officers. +There may have been a break in the case.

Then +explosives were set off at al-Uruba pollee station, which also took sniper fire, but neither resulted in +casualties. +The police became vigilant, and they apprehended a shady-looking man skulking around near the al- +Hadaeg police station, finding him to have two rocket propelled grenades in his possession, which he +was apparently intending to fire at the station. +In other words, the capture of Libyan Deep Throat has set off a gang war on the police, who are being +informed by bombings and shootings that they must let their informant go or risk their +So what is Deep Throat saying?

In the opinion of a sensitive source, Haftar and al Juwali believe that the +Sudanese military is providing arms and supplies to the pro-Qaddafi forces, under direct +orders from Sudanese President Omar al Bashir. El-Keib complained to al-Juwali that +Haftar's forces passed through al-Kufra region during early and mid-February on their +way to the Sudanese border, however; they did nothing to disarm the local revolutionary +militias, or stop the fighting between competing tribal groups. In the opinion of this +individual, Rafter felt that the threat from the pro-Qaddafi forces was greater than that +posed by the regional and tribal fighting +5. At the same time, a source with excellent access to the leadership of the +National Transitional Council (NTC) stated in secret that fighting continues between +regional, tribal, and religious rivals throughout the Northern/Mediterranean portions of +the country. This same source added that the ongoing struggle between the Misrata and +Zintan militias for control of the area west of Tripoli is particularly violent and +disruptive for the rest of the country. In the capital itself, fighting continues between +regional groups, the national army, Islamist militias, and criminal street gangs, all of +whom are very well armed. This individual reports that during mid -February 2012 el- +Keib and Jalil agreed to address the problem of disaffected former militiamen and their +families by providing payments of 2,000 Dinars (approximately $1,500) per month to +the families of fighters who were wounded or killed in the revolution. +6. In addition the President and Prime Minister instructed Minister of Finance +Hassan Ziglam to develop an efficient system to provide assistance funds to unemployed +former fighters. For his part, Ziglam privately expressed concern that previous efforts in +this regard have met with a high level of fraud.

During early December 2012 Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zidan and President Mohamed +Magariaf concluded a series of discreet meetings with selected tribal leaders from Eastern Cyrenaica +region (Barqa in Arabic), after which they agreed that the problem of the growing Barqa federalist +movement is gaining strength and will again become a major issue in early 2013. At the same time +National Libyan Army (NLA) Chief of Staff General Youssef al Mangoush warned Zidan that the +Eastern tribes have rearmed and reequipped in the past three months and are preparing to reassert +their desire for a degree of autonomy in early 2013. Mangoush also advised that the situation in the +region between Benghazi and the Egyptian border may become increasingly complicated as Salafist +fighters from Egypt continue to arrive in Benghazi. Mangoush reported that his staff officers have +been advised M secret by aids to Egyptian Army Chief of Staff, General Mohammed al-Sissi, that, +acting under instructions from Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi, military and security forces are +taking steps to detain or neutralize extreme Salafist para-military groups and that a number of these +fighters are fleeing to Libya. According to the Libyan commander, these Salafist fighters are +comfortable in Benghazi, where many of them served with Libyan revolutionary forces during the +rebellion against former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739865 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

In the opinion of this individual, Zidan and Magariaf, after consulting with Minister of Oil +Abdulbari al-Arusi, decided to move forward with a plan dating back to the administration of former +Oil Minister Abdulrahman Ben Yezza dividing the National Oil Corporatioes (NOC) production and +exploration divisions into two separate firms. With this in mind, al-Arusi began discussing the matter +with concerned parties in late November and early December. Included in these discussions were +meetings with members of the local federalist council in Benghazi and tribal officials from Barqa. In +these sessions Al-Arusi described a new structure managing all existing oil-related firms„ while +building new operations and raising funds from investors outside of the country. This firm will be +divided into two branches, one in Benghazi and one in Tripoli. Al-Arusi added that the cost of this +project will range between fifty (50) and sixty (6o) billion dinars. +3.(Source Comment: According to a separate sensitive source, this concept came as a surprise +to most of the local officials in Tripoli and Benghazi. This individual added that while the Western +officials continue to have some questions about the matter, the Benghazi/Barqa leaders were, in al- +Arusi's opinion, positive, if not enthusiastic about the new initiative. According to al-Arusi, doubts on +either side relate to the mistrust that remains between the two regions, but he is determined to move +ahead in this matter and is supported by Zidan and Magariaf. According to this source, the president +and prime minister are convinced that they must deal with this internal East-West issue before they +can bring a stable security environment to the country, and disarm the remaining independent +militias in each part of the country. This individual added that in private discussions al-Arusi stated +that the tentative name for this new oil entity will be the National Corporation for Oil Refining and +Petrochemicals Industry, with its headquarters in Tripoli, and substantive offices in Benghazi. Like +the NOC, the new firm will fall under the Ministry of Oil and Gas.) +4. In addition, this sensitive source noted that Al-Arusi is also discussing the creation of a +company specializing in mechanical construction related to the oil and gas industry. This firm would +be based in Benghazi. The minister stated in private that he believes such a company can be +developed to compete with international firms in this very complex field. He also believes that such a +firm must be managed by experienced, scientifically-qualified Libyans, with reputations for honesty. +He noted that until as such a cadre is developed it may be desirable to use experts from Egypt to fill +the immediate needs of the firm. Al-Arusi believes this firm should have offices in all of the oil fields +and loading facilities. The minister also plans to establish an office in Benghazi, similar to Tripoli's oil +institute, a facility that will train students looking to pursue oil-related studies. In addition, al-Arusi is +making plans to reopen the Higher Petroleum Institute in Tobruk, which was closed by Qaddafi at the +beginning of the revolution. He told a sensitive source that he expects the Tobruk institute to produce +thousands of skilled engineers to provide Libyan managers for the future operation of the oil sector. +Once the final details are set the Zidan regime will submit the entire package for parliamentary +approval and financing +6. (Source Comment: Advisors to Magariaf state in confidence that, in their opinion this +comprehensive plan for the oil industry will face opposition from individuals with links to foreign oil +firms, primarily foreign trained engineers who hope to see greater privatization in the oil an oil +services industries in the wake of the revolution. According to a particularly sensitive source, Zidan is +particularly concerned about this possibility, noting that these individuals see this issue in strictly +business terms, not considering the political issues, and the East — West situation, that are all part of +the overall picture in Libya. At present al-Arusi believes that foreign oil firms remain concerned +about the unsettled security situation throughout Libya, however; he is convinced that this new plan +will help address this situation. At present, he noted that the large Italian oil firm ENT is stepping up +its operations throughout Libya, and, with the support of the Italian Government, will continue to +increase its investment in Libya in an effort to get ahead of the other foreign firms concerned in +Libya.) +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739865 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Ali and +Juwali each stated privately that, while they would follow orders, they have little hope of +succeeding in this matter until el-Keib and Jalil gain credibility as the rulers of the +country. Ali added that, in his opinion, this situation will persist until a new +government is chosen during the national elections planned for later in 2012. +2. In the opinion of this individual, the Prime Minister is particularly concerned +by the situation in the Southern portion of the country, where the area defined by the +towns of Ghat, Sabha, and al Kufra, where fighting between rival tribal and regional +militias has been exacerbated by the activities of Qaddafi loyalists, and their allies, +Taureg tribal fighters. This individual added that el-Keib and Jalil agree that the +uncertain security situation in this area represents a threat to Libya's future stability. +They agreed that, at present, if faced with a concerted effort by either disaffected +militiamen or pro-Qaddafi forces government security forces and the new national army +would be unable to protect either Libyan citizens or Western businessmen and oil +industry workers in the region. +3.(Source Comment: In the opinion of this individual, el-Keib believes that any +attack against oil field workers will frighten large Western firms and seriously damage +Libya's efforts to recover from the revolution. This individual added that al Juwali is +particularly upset with his deputy Minister and Chief of Staff of the Army, General +Yousef Mangoush, who he believes has been unable to work with national army ground +force commander General Khalifa Belqasim Haftar. A very sensitive source added that +the Benghazi based units of the army, under Haftar's direct command, are currently +deploying to the area southeast of al-Kufra, along the Sudanese border.) +4. In the opinion of a sensitive source, Haftar and al Juwali believe that the +Sudanese military is providing arms and supplies to the pro-Qaddafi forces, under direct +orders from Sudanese President Omar al Bashir. El-Keib complained to al-Juwali that +Haftar's forces passed through al-Kufra region during early and mid-February on their +way to the Sudanese border, however; they did nothing to disarm the local revolutionary +militias, or stop the fighting between competing tribal groups. In the opinion of this +individual, Hafter felt that the threat from the pro-Qaddafi forces was greater than that +posed by the regional and tribal fighting. +5. At the same time, a source with excellent access to the leadership of the +National Transitional Council (NTC) stated in secret that fighting continues between +regional, tribal, and religious rivals throughout the Northern/Mediterranean portions of +the country. This same source added that the ongoing struggle between the Misrata and +Zintan militias for control of the area west of Tripoli is particularly violent and +disruptive for the rest of the country. In the capital itself, fighting continues between +regional groups, the national army, Islamist militias, and criminal street gangs, all of +whom are very well armed. This individual reports that during mid-February 2012 el- +Keib and Jalil agreed to address the problem of disaffected former militiamen and their +families by providing payments of 2,000 Dinars (approximately $1,500) per month to +the families of fighters who were wounded or killed in the revolution. +6. In addition the President and Prime Minister instructed Minister of Finance +Hassan Ziglam to develop an efficient system to provide assistance funds to unemployed +former fighters. For his part, Ziglam privately expressed concern that previous efforts in +this regard have met with a high level of fraud. According to the government's best +estimates, the revolutionary army included approximately 25,000 combat troops, but it +is difficult to identify those with legitimate claims, as no accurate service records were +maintained. That said, he stated in private that the government must be seen to take +some form of direct action, even if money is paid to fraudulent claimants.

During the period between mid-January 2012 to March 2012 officers of the a French General Directorate for +External Security ( Direction Generale de la Securite Exterieure — DGSE), and the British Secret Intelligence Service +(SIS—MI-6) activated long standing contacts with tribal and civic leaders in Eastern Libya, in an effort to encourage them +to establish a semi-autonomous zone in the historic province of Cyrenaica (Barge in Arabic). According to extremely +knowledgeable sources, this effort was initiated by advisors to French President Nicholas Sarkozy after complaints from +concerned French business leaders that the new Libyan Government was not rewarding appropriately French firms for the +leading role France played in supporting the 2011 revolution against former Dictator Muammar al Qaddafi. SIS joined in +this effort at the instruction of the office of Prime Minister David Cameron. This highly confidential effort comes in +response to the inability of the National Transitional Council (NTC) government in Tripoli to organize the country +effectively and deal with Western business interests in an effective and efficient manner. +2. The French and British business and intelligence officials believe that a semi autonomous regime in the +Eastern city of Benghazi will be able to organize business opportunities in that region. This in turn will allow these +Western firms to initiate new business projects. These same officials believe that there is also reduced threat from +Islamist militias in the East. According to a knowledgeable source, French officials believe that this situation is the natural +result of el-Keib's failure to organize the country and disarm the ethnic and regional militias who did the majority of the +fighting against Qaddafi's forces during the revolution. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739872 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

(Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, the French Government and business leaders +actually expected to receive thirty five (35) per cent of new economic development in Libya after the fall of Qaddafi. Like +many Western businessmen, these French officials made informal agreements with former Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril +and his advisors, only to see these agreements ignored or delayed when Abdurrahim el-Keib became head of government +in October 2011. In their opinion, once el-Keib moved the government from the Eastern city of Benghazi to the national +capital at Tripoli, the government became inefficient and inaccessible. These individuals also believe that the +appointment of Minister of Oil Abdulrahman Ben Yezza, who was a long time official of the Italian Oil Company (EN!), was +a factor. According to these sources, the bulk of ENI's oil fields are in the Western part of Libya, and Ben Yezza focused +his attentions on that region, while failing to effectively organize new business East of Benghazi.

However, they have been surprised by el-Keib's intention, expressed both in +public and in secret meetings with Minister of Defense OUSetrill al JuwaIi, a native of Zintan, to use force to hold the +country together. El-Kelb is also committed to Ben Van, although he is frustrated by the chaotic situation in Tripoli.

Cladeafi, as an absolute dictator, suppressed these differences, which have reemerged with his defeat and +death.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +According to al Juwali, a native of the Western Libyan region of Zintan, the LMB is drawing strength from people who +fear that the Federalist movement in Barqa will result in that region dominating the country, gaining control of an +inordinate share of the country's oil and mineral reserves. +For his part, Jalil stated that he agrees with Oil Minister Abdulrahman Ben Yezza that if matters are not resolved by the +July elections, the unsettled nature of the political process in Libya will damage the country's image as a business +partner and confuse foreign banks and oil firms attempting to open new contacts with the new Libyan Government, or +reactivate existing agreements. +2. +According to a sensitive source, while discussing this matter with Dr Abd al-Nasser Shamata, the head of the Crisis +Management Unit in the NTC, Prime Minister el Keib stated that the most problematic aspect of the rise of the LMB is +the leadership role taken by Islamist militia leader General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj. +In the opinion of this source, the NTC leadership sees Belhaj as one of the greatest threats to the long term success of +their regime. +Al Juwali also notes that Belhaj is the head of the founding committee for the LMB's Justice and Construction Party +(JCP). As the Federalist movement took hold in early March 2012, al Juwali, under instruction from el Keib and Jalil, met +with Belhaj and other Western militia leaders to arrange for their support In the event military force is needed to hold +the country together. +Belhaj represented the most effective of the Western militias. +3. +According to the Minister of Defense, this situation with the Federalist movement enhanced Belhaj's prestige at the +time he was working to secure a leadership role in the LMB and the JCP. +El Keib and Jalil are concerned that, despite the fact that the LMB has a limited base after years of suppression by the +regime of former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi, they will appeal to those Libyans who believe that the NTC regime is +under the influence of the United States and Western Europe. +The activities of Belhaj in both the LMB and the JCP reinforce this view. +Jalil finds this situation frustrating, particularly in the light of his regular assurances that Libya would operate under +Islamic law, and while maintaining appropriate ties to the West, will remain hostile to Israel. +4. (Source Comment: +In a private conversation, Jalil stated that he is working to balance the internal political realities of Libya against the +concerns of the international business community. +The President is concerned that the appointment of BenYezza as Oil Minister in October 2011 provided the JCP with a +tangible concern to use against NTC candidates during the July elections. +After his long experience as a senior official of the Multinational Italian Oil Firm ENI, Ben Yezza is viewed by Belhaj and +many members of the LMB as a symbol of the issue they will pursue in the national election, the idea that NTC, like the +Qaddafi, regime is corrupt and involved in allowing foreign interests to control the nation's mineral wealth. +That said, Jalil continues to agree with el Keib that Ben Yezza is an excellent administrator, and in the long run will play +an important role in effectively managing the nation's mineral wealth.) +5. +According to an extremely sensitive source, Jalil and his advisors have been in contact with Supreme Guide Mohamed +Badie, the leader of the much larger and more powerful Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood (EMB). +This contact is largely based on the President's need to address reports he has received that the LMB is reaching out to +Badie and his advisors for support. +This effort is particularly important given the belief among NTC leaders that the EMB and its Freedom and Justice Party +(FJP) will control the Government of Egypt as that country moves to civilian rule later in 2012. In the opinion of this +source, Badie is sympathetic to Jalil's position, especially since the Libyan President and el Keib were members of the +EMB during their student days in Egypt. +The Supreme Guide will, according to Jalil, work to influence the LMB to establish a cooperative effort with the NTC. +Badie will point out the fact that his ability to cooperate with both the Supreme Council for the Armed Force (SCAF), as +well as the Salafist al Nour party, helped establish the EMB as the dominant political force in Egypt, while avoiding high +levels of violence. +6. +(Source Comment: An extremely sensitive source within the EMB agreed that Badie and Jalil have spoken in an effort to +develop a plan to deal with the LMB. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739874 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Eventually the Brotherhood, having reestablished itself in the United States and Europe, entered into +a dialogue with the Qaddafi regime 1999, and in 2005 began a series of negotiations with SW al-Islam Qaddafi, whose +goal was to co-opt and neutralize opposition groups, particularly Islamist ones. +8. +According to this individual, Belhaj and the other Islamist leaders mistrusted the LMB during the first months of the +2011 revolution. +However, Belhaj eventually established a working relationship with Fawzi Abu Kitef, the head of the Revolutionary +Brigades Coalition in Eastern Libya and the former deputy defense minister in the NTC. Abu Kltef was a leading figure in +the LMB who spent more than 18 years in prison, including the notorious facility at Abu SeIlm. Under Abu Kitef and +leaders like Dr. Abdullah Shamia, who was in charge of the economic committee of the NTC, the Brotherhood +established itself as a unique group within the Jai Keib regime; serving there until they began to plan for +independent political activity in late 2011 and early 2012. +9. +In early 2012, as the relationship between the NTC and Belhaj and the other Islamists deteriorated in the face of +regional and ethnic power struggles, the LMB leadership, in coordination with Belhaj began to look at an independent +political effort in the parliamentary elections. During its first public conference in Benghazi during November 2011, the +LMB elected a new leader, increased its consultative council membership from 11 to 30 leaders, and decided to form a +political party; the JCP. +Mohammed Swan, the former head of the Libyan LMB's Consultative Council, won a tight victory over longtime LMB +leader Soliman Abd al-Qadr, to become the first leader of the JCP. Bashir al-Kubty was elected General Observer of the +LMB. +10.(Source comment: According to an individual with excellent access, the LMB leaders are sensitive to charges +that the JCP is a party with a narrow religious agenda, and they encouraged Walid al-Sakran, non-member of the LMB, to +compete as a candidate for JCP leadership. +That said Belhaj and other Islamist leaders believe that the LMB is set to follow the electoral path of Islamist success +seen in Egypt, Tunisia, and other Arab countries. +Belhaj now believes that the country will move forward under sharia law, administered by the Islamist bloc, including +the LMB/JCP +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739874 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

He sensed there was agreement from the Council members present and thought he had +succeeded in quelling the public discontent.

Sid +CONFIDENTIAL +July 3,2012 +For: Hillary +From: Sid +Re: Libyan election +SOURCE: Sources with direct access to the Libyan National Transitional Council, as well as the highest levels of +European Governments, and Western Intelligence and security services. +1. Libyan National Transitional Council (NTC) President Mustafa Abdel Jalil expected the final days leading to the +July 7, 2012 national elections to be complicated and sometimes violent; however, according to a knowledgeable +individual, he is particularly concerned by the level of control exerted by regional militia's and political groups on the +electoral process. In the opinion of this individual, Jalil and his advisors believe that, given the level of suspicion and +frustration felt in the various parts of the country, it will be difficult for the new 200 seat General National Congress (GNC) +to establish its authority, draft a new constitution, and establish new national government. With this in mind, Jalil stated in +extreme confidence that the NTC may have to remain in power until the situation becomes stable and a new government +is firmly in place. That said he still plans to have interim Prime Minister Abdel Rahman el-Keib step down after the +election results have been certified. The NTC will then work with the GNC as it takes shape to choose a new Prime +Minister and Cabinet. Jalil would like to keep several ministers from the el-Keib government in the new regime, +particularly Minister of Defense Ousama al-Juwali. +2. According to this individual, Jalil wants to maintain a degree of security and stability in an effort to reassure +foreign businesses and banks that Libya will not descend into civil war and chaos. At the same time, the NTC must deal +with the regional issues that divide the country's three electoral regions: Tripolitania in the West, Cyrenaica (Barge) in the +East, and Fezzan in the South. In the weeks leading up to the election the failure of the NTC to resolve these differences +has strengthened the federalist movement in Barge while antagonizing the tribal leaders in the South. Both groups are +calling on their followers to boycott the election while the Southerners are calling for the National Army to withdraw its +forces from the area around the town of Kufra, where they are deployed to stop fighting between tribal militias. At the +same time, on July 1 federalist supporters attacked electoral offices in Benghazi, protesting the influence of Tripoli and the +Western region on the upcoming elections. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739880 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +3. (Source Comment: In the opinion of a knowledgeable individual, the division of the 200 seats in the GNC lies +at the heart of this matter, with 120 seats allotted for the Tripolitania, 60 for Barqa, and 18 for the Fezzan area. At +present, the Libyan Muslim Brotherhood (LMB) and its political arm, the Justice and Construction Party (JCP), are +attempting to mount a national campaign, receiving discreet advice and technical support from the Egyptian Muslim +Brotherhood (EMB). With this assistance, Jalil is convinced that the JCP is the party that operates most effectively +throughout the country. Jalil has established ties to the EMB, from whom he has learned that JCP leader Mohamad +Sowan and his associates are working with the leadership of the EMB.) +4. According to his sources, Jalil believes that he can work with Sowan and the LMB/JCP; however, he is +concerned that Mohammed Morsi, the newly elected EMB President of Egypt, and EMB Supreme Guide Mohammed +Badie are focused on developing Egyptian influence in Libya. Jalil has been informed privately that these EMB leaders +want to establish a strong position in Libya, particularly in the oil services sector as part of their effort to improve Egypt's +economic situation. Libyan officials in Cairo and Jalil's own associates are warning him that the Egyptians may see the +NTC as a potential barrier to their effort and are advising Sowan to press for an early withdrawal of Jalil and the NTC from +Libyan politics. For his part, Jalil has attempted to avoided direct conflict with the LMB/JCP, focusing his attention, and +that of the el-Keib interim government on trying to deal with the unrest in the period leading up to the national elections. +5. According to a particularly sensitive source, Jalil believes that Sowan will need the assistance of the Libyan +National Party (LNP), the Islamist group led by religious scholar Ali al-Salabi and former Islamist militant +General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj to gain enough seats to control the GNC. While there are significant personal +conflicts between Sowan and Belhaj, Jalil believes that the two groups could work together to gain control of the +government. In this case, Jalil believes the new regime would move quickly to oust the NTC, and establish a more +conservative Islamist regime. At the same time, since the LNP is a Tripoli based movement, Jalil fears that the tribal +federalists in Barqa might react violently to them gaining an important role in the new government. Since the Barqa +leaders are urging their followers to boycott the election, a strong role for the LNP in coalition with the LMB/JCB could +lead to calls for Barge to secede from the Libya. (Source Comment: The LNP is dominated by the former leaders of the +Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (AI-Jamala al-Islamiyyah —LIFG), who, according to sensitive sources, maintained ties to al +Qa'ida during their struggle with the forces of former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi.) +6. Former interim Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril is leading the National Forces Alliance (NFA), +an umbrella coalition of liberal parties that received Western support for efforts to overthrow the regime of Muammar al +Qaddafi. While Jibril is not on the list of candidates, his presence in the NFA leadership is seen by Belhaj and other +Islamists as an effort by the United States and Western Europe to manipulate the election. Jalil does not believe that the +NFA can gain control of enough seats in parliament to play a significant role in the new government. According to this +source, Jalil believes that former Oil and Finance Minister Ali Tarhouni also plays an important role in the NFA. +7. At the same time, Jafil is watching the progress of a second moderate party, the National Front (NF), which is +based on the work of a 1980s-era anti-Qaddafi exile organization. The party is led by Mohammed al-Magariaf, an exiled +intellectual dissident leader from a prominent Eastern Libyan family. Jalil's sources advise that the NF is also backed by +the al-Sennusi tribe, the former Libyan royal family, who may be looking to play a role in a semi-autonomous or +independent Barqa. One particularly sensitive source noted that many of the NF leaders have ties to the United States, +Italy and the United Kingdom, and at one point Jalil believed that the NF might be able to work with the NFA; however, +personal differences between the leaders of the two parties made effective cooperation difficult. +8. (Source Comment: In the end, a particularly sensitive source stated in confidence that Jalil believes the +LMB/JCB will have a significant role in the new government, possibly supported by the LNP. However; he points out that +since accurate polling is nonexistent it is impossible to predict a victor with any accuracy. Jaill also noted that it is quite +possible that no group will win a clear victory, which, when added to the boycotts and pre-election violence may require +the NTC maintain control of the country for some time to come. Accordingly, he has instructed al-Juwali to prepare to use +the National Army to maintain order. For his part Al-Juwali has warned that this will be a difficult task since the best units +of the Army, including many of its armored forces are deployed in the Kufra region of the Southeast, in an effort to control +tribal conflicts, stem the flow of weapons into the country from South Sudan, and resist Qaddafi loyalists amongst the +nomadic tribes of the region.) +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739880 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Both groups are calling on their followers to boycott the election while the +Southerners are calling for the National Army to withdraw its forces from the area around the +town of Kufra, where they are deployed to stop fighting between tribal militias. At the same +time, on July 1 federalist supporters attacked electoral offices in Benghazi, protesting the +influence of Tripoli and the Western region on the upcoming elections. +3. (Source Comment: In the opinion of a knowledgeable individual, the division of the +200 seats in the GNC lies at the heart of this matter, with 120 seats allotted for the Tripolitania, +60 for Barqa, and 18 for the Fezzan area. At present, the Libyan Muslim Brotherhood (LMB) +and its political arm, the Justice and Construction Party (JCP), are attempting to mount a national +campaign, receiving discreet advice and technical support from the Egyptian Muslim +Brotherhood (EMB). With this assistance, Jalil is convinced that the JCP is the party that +operates most effectively throughout the country. Jalil has established ties to the EMB, from +whom he has learned that JCP leader Mohamad Sowan and his associates are working with the +leadership of the EMB.) +4. According to his sources, Jalil believes that he can work with Sowan and the +LMB/JCP; however, he is concerned that Mohammed Morsi, the newly elected EMB President +of Egypt, and EMB Supreme Guide Mohammed Badie are focused on developing Egyptian +influence in Libya. Jalil has been informed privately that these EMB leaders want to establish a +strong position in Libya, particularly in the oil services sector as part of their effort to improve +Egypt's economic situation Libyan officials in Cairo and Jalil's own associates are warning him +that the Egyptians may see the NTC as a potential barrier to their effort and are advising Sowan +to press for an early withdrawal of Jalil and the NTC from Libyan politics. For his part, Jalil has +attempted to avoided direct conflict with the LMB/JCP, focusing his attention, and that of the el- +Keib interim government on trying to deal with the unrest in the period leading up to the national +elections. +5. According to a particularly sensitive source, Jalil believes that Sowan will need the +assistance of the Libyan National Party (LNP), the Islamist group led by religious scholar +All al-Salabi and former Islamist militant General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj to gain enough +seats to control the GNC. While there are significant personal conflicts between Sowan and +Belhaj, Jalil believes that the two groups could work together to gain control of the government +In this case, Jalil believes the new regime would move quickly to oust the NTC, and establish a +more conservative Islamist regime. At the same time, since the LNP is a Tripoli based +movement, Jalil fears that the tribal federalists in Barqa might react violently to them gaining an +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739880 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Since the Barqa leaders are urging their followers to +boycott the election, a strong role for the LNP in coalition with the LMB/JCB could lead to calls +for Barqa to secede from the Libya. (Source Comment: The LNP is dominated by the former +leaders of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (Al-Jama'a al-Islamiyyah —LIFG), who, according +to sensitive sources, maintained ties to al Qa'ida during their stru• e with the forces of former +dictator Muammar al Qaddafi.) +6. Former interim Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril is leading the National Forces +Alliance (NFA), an umbrella coalition of liberal parties that received Western support for +efforts to overthrow the regime of Muarnmar al Qaddafi. While Jibril is not on the list of +candidates, his presence in the NFA leadership is seen by Belhaj and other Islamists as an effort +by the United States and Western Europe to manipulate the election. Jalil does not believe that +the NFA can gain control of enough seats in parliament to play a significant role in the new +government. According to this source, Jalil believes that former Oil and Finance Minister Ali +Tarhouni also plays an important role in the NFA. +7. At the same time, Jalil is watching the progress of a second moderate party, the +National Front (NF), which is based on the work of a 1980s-era anti-Qaddafi exile organization. +The party is led by Mohammed al-Magariaf, an exiled intellectual dissident leader from a +prominent Eastern Libyan family. Jahr s sources advise that the NF is also backed by the al- +Sennusi tribe, the former Libyan royal family, who may be looking to play a role in a semi- +autonomous or independent Barqa. One particularly sensitive source noted that many of the NF +leaders have ties to the United States, Italy and the United Kingdom, and at one point Jalil +believed that the NF might be able to work with the NFA; however, personal differences +between the leaders of the two parties made effective cooperation difficult. +8. (Source Comment: In the end, a particularly sensitive source stated in confidence that +Jalil believes the LMB/JCB will have a significant role in the new government, possibly +supported by the LNP. However; he points out that since accurate polling is nonexistent it is +impossible to predict a victor with any accuracy. Jalil also noted that it is quite possible that no +group will win a clear victory, which, when added to the boycotts and pre-election violence may +require the NTC maintain control of the country for some time to come. Accordingly, he has +instructed al-Juwali to prepare to use the National Army to maintain order. For his part Al- +Juwali has warned that this will be a difficult task since the best units of the Army, including +many of its armored forces are deployed in the Kufra region of the Southeast, in an effort to +control tribal conflicts, stem the flow of weapons into the country from South Sudan, and resist +Qaddafi loyalists amongst the nomadic tribes of the region.) +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739880 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Libyan National Transitional Council (NTC) President Mustafa Abdel Jalil expected the final days leading to the +July 7, 2012 national elections to be complicated and sometimes violent; however, according to a knowledgeable +individual, he is particularly concerned by the level of control exerted by regional militia's and political groups on the +electoral process. In the opinion of this individual, Jalil and his advisors believe that, given the level of suspicion and +frustration felt in the various parts of the country, it will be difficult for the new 200 seat General National Congress (GNC) +to establish its authority, draft a new constitution, and establish new national government. With this in mind, Jalil stated in +extreme confidence that the NTC may have to remain in power until the situation becomes stable and a new government +is firmly in place. That said he still plans to have interim Prime Minister Abdel Rahman el-Keib step down after the +election results have been certified. The NTC will then work with the GNC as it takes shape to choose a new Prime +Minister and Cabinet. Jalil would like to keep several ministers from the el-Keib government in the new regime, +particularly Minister of Defense Ousama al-Juwali. +2. According to this individual, Jalil wants to maintain a degree of security and stability in an effort to reassure +foreign businesses and banks that Libya will not descend into civil war and chaos. At the same time, the NTC must deal +with the regional issues that divide the country's three electoral regions: Tripolitania in the West, Cyrenaica (Barqa) in the +East, and Fezzan in the South. In the weeks leading up to the election the failure of the NTC to resolve these differences +has strengthened the federalist movement in Barqa while antagonizing the tribal leaders in the South. Both groups are +calling on their followers to boycott the election while the Southerners are calling for the National Army to withdraw its +forces from the area around the town of Kufra, where they are deployed to stop fighting between tribal militias. At the +same time, on July 1 federalist supporters attacked electoral offices in Benghazi, protesting the influence of Tripoli and the +Western region on the upcoming elections. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739885 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Jalil has been informed privately that these EMS leaders +want to establish a strong position in Libya, particularly in the oil services sector as part of their effort to improve Egypt's +economic situation. Libyan officials in Cairo and Jallfs own associates are warning him that the Egyptians may see the +NTC as a potential barrier to their effort and are advising Sowan to press for an early withdrawal of Jalil and the NTC from +Libyan politics. For his part, Jalil has attempted to avoided direct conflict with the LMB/JCP, focusing his attention, and +that of the el-keib interim government on trying to deal with the unrest in the period leading up to the national elections. +5. According to a particularly sensitive source, Jalil believes that Sowan will need the assistance of the Libyan +National Party (LNP), the Islamist group led by religious scholar All al-Salabi and former Islarnist militant +General Abdel Hakim Alamin Belhaj to gain enough seats to control the GNC. While there are significant personal +conflicts between Sowan and Bethel Jalii believes that the two groups could work together to gain control of the +government. In this case, Jalil believes the new regime would move quickly to oust the RITC, and establish a more +conservative Islamist regime. At the same time since the LNP is a Tn'poli based movement, Jalil fears that the tribal +federalists in Barge might react violently to them gaining an important role in the new government. Since the Barge +leaders are urging their followers to boycott the election, a strong role for the LNP in coalition with the LMB/JCB could +lead to calls for Barge to secede from the Libya. (Source Comment: The LNP is dominated by the former leaders of the +Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (AI-Jama'a al-Islamiyyah —LIFG), who according to sensitive sources, maintained ties to at +Oalcia during their struggle with the forces of former dictator !Muenster at Qaddafi.) +6. Former interim Prime Minister Mahmotel Jibril is leading the National Forces Alliance (NFA), +an umbrella coalition of liberal parties that received Western support for efforts to overthrow the regime of Nluammar at +Qaddafi. VVhile Jibril is not on the list of candidates, his presence in the NFA leadership is seen by Belhaj and other +Islamists as an effort by the United States and Western Europe to manipulate the election. Jalil does not believe that the +NFA can gain control of enough seats in parliament to play a significant role in the new government. According to this +source, Jalil believes that former Oil and Finance Minister Ali Tanhouni also plays an important role in the NFA. +7, At the same time Jalil is watching the progress of a second moderate party, the National Front (NF), which is +based on the work of a 1980s-era anti-Qaddafi exile organization.

At the same time, the NTC must deal with the regional issues that divide the +country's three electoral regions: Tripolitania in the West, Cyrenaica (Barqa) in the East, and +Fezzan in the South.

During early August, 2012, Libyan National Transitional Council (NTC) President Mustafa Abdel +Jalil held discreet meetings with Mohammed Yussef Magariaf, the then leader of the newly elected General +National Congress (GNC), who Jalil learned was to be named interim President of Libya when the NTC stepped +down. During these sessions the two leaders worked out the transition to a new, elected interim Government for +Libya; focusing on the need to restore stability and security by disarming the militia units which fought in the +2011 revolution against former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi. According to a source with excellent access to +both parties, Jalil came away from the meeting convinced that Magariaf is intent on becoming Libya's first +elected president following the overthrow of Qaddafi. Jalil was pleased to learn that Magariaf strongly supports +the three-party Cairo Declaration negotiated between the NTC and the Governments of Tunisia and Egypt in +late July allowing for increased trade and a relaxation of existing travel restrictions. +2. According to this individual, Jalil and Magariaf agree that Tunisia and Egypt hold the key to Libya's +future economic success, with Libya providing the funding for new projects, while Egypt and Tunisia provide +technical expertise. Magariaf stated privately that this relationship marks a departure from the Qaddafi years +when Libya's natural resources fell under the control of foreign firms and governments. Jalil added that +Magariaf will welcome investment and cooperation from American and Western European banks and +corporations, but believes Libya, supported by the new governments rising out of the Arab Spring, must +maintain control over all aspects of the industries involved in exploiting its natural resources. In this regard, +with the support of both Jalil and Magariaf, the Libyan Ministry of Finance is increasing the level of Libyan +investment in the Cairo stock exchange. In turn, Magariaf and Egyptian President Mohamad Morsi discussed +increased Tunisian and Egyptian investment in the Benghazi stock exchange as the economic situation in Libya +becomes more orderly. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739887 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

NO FOIA WAIVER. +3. In commenting on the new Interim President, Jalil added that Magariaf s current position is bolstered +by the fact that he is not tied to any particular faction. At the same time he has maintained the respect that is +attached to his role as the first Libyan leader to direct an armed revolt against Qaddafi. This fighting was +carried out by the rebel Libyan National Army in 1981. Magariaf is an academic and diplomat with well +established Islamist credentials and good relationships with business and government leaders in the United +States and Western Europe. A separate sensitive source noted that one interesting issue to watch is Magariaf s +relationship with General Khalifa Belqasim Haftar, the commander of one sections of the new Libyan Army. +Haftar has been at odds with many of the militia commanders and is currently leading Libyan forces in the +Kufra region, attempting to end local tribal fighting and block the smuggling of arms and supplies to pro- +Qaddafi militias by supporters based in South Sudan. In the years between 1981 and 1990 Haftar (then Colonel +Haftar) commanded the rebel Libyan National Army, under Magariaf s National Front for the Salvation of +Libya (NFSL). One source notes that Magariaf s opposition to Qaddafi was based on the dictator's betrayal of +Islamic principles, a position that, at that time, was supported by the Western Allies. +4. According to this individual, Jalil also spoke with former Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril, who +indicated that he and Magariaf agree on many issues, including the belief that they can build an Islamic state in +Libya that can function in the world economy and the international diplomatic community. He did note that he +believes Magariaf s view of the role of Islam in the day to day function of the government is more conservative +than his, but these are differences that can be sorted out in the GNC. In the opinion of this individual Jabril is +well aware of the fact that, while his National Force Alliance (NFA) controls a solid bloc of thirty nine (39) +seats in the GNC and Magariaf's National Front Party (NFP) holds no seats in its own right, the interim +President has established good working relationships with at least 100 of the 120 independent members of the +GNC. Magariaf received 113 votes in his election as Interim President. Again these independent deputies +respect Magariaf s role in fighting the Qaddafi regime. +5.(Source Comment: This particularly sensitive individual stated in strict confidence that Magariaf sees +his role as establishing an efficient interim government, while overseeing the drafting of a new constitution and +election law. This individual believes that Magariaf is very interested in winning the presidency under this new +law. Besides meeting with Jalil and Jibril, Magariaf is talking to liberal politicians including former Oil and +Finance Minister Ali Tarhouni, and the leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood's (MB) Justice and Construction +Party (JCP), including Mohamad Sowan.) +6. This individual adds that Jalil believes Magariaf will face a very difficult period as he addresses the +many issues left unresolved by the NTC and the interim regime of Prime Minister .kbdel Rahman el-Keib. Jalil +has been highly frustrated by el-Keib's inability to disarm the many militia units left over from the 2011 +revolution against Qaddafi. At the same time he has advised Magariaf to move quickly in replacing el-Keib's +cabinet while deciding which ministers to retain. The new interim government is facing a problem of +lawlessness and attacks against foreigners, including representatives of the Egyptian Government; this at a time +when the new Muslim Brotherhood government of Egypt is reaching out to increase business and diplomatic +contacts between the two countries. According to a sensitive source, Libyan military intelligence officers +believe these attacks are the work of Qaddafi loyalists, while former NTC officials fear that they may be carried +out by dissident Islamist groups, frustrated with the results of the national elections, which many of them +boycotted. +7. (Source Comment: An extremely sensitive source stated in confidence that Libyan Military +Intelligence officers reported to Jalil and later Magariaf that a series of bombings in Tripoli and Benghazi +appear to be the work of Qaddafi loyalists looking to create tension between the Libyan and Egyptian +Governments. These attacks included the car of an Egyptian diplomat, which was blown up near his home in +Benghazi, a day after several deadly bomb attacks in the capital Tripoli. At the same time, a homemade bomb +exploded under the vehicle of the Egyptian consulate's first secretary Abdelhamid Rifai in one of the Tripoli's +most affluent neighborhoods. No one was hurt during this attack. Earlier in August, three car bombs exploded +near the Ministry of Interior in Tripoli, killing two people and wounding three others.

During early August, 2012, Libyan National Transitional Council (NTC) President Mustafa Abdel +Jalil held discreet meetings with Mohammed Yussef Magariaf, the then leader of the newly elected General +National Congress (GNC), who Jalil learned was to be named interim President of Libya when the NTC stepped +down. During these sessions the two leaders worked out the transition to a new, elected interim Government for +Libya; focusing on the need to restore stability and security by disarming the militia units which fought in the +2011 revolution against former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi. According to a source with excellent access to +both parties, _Tani came away from the meeting convinced that Magariaf is intent on becoming Libya's first +elected president following the overthrow of Qaddafi. Jalil was pleased to learn that Magariaf strongly supports +the three-party Cairo Declaration negotiated between the NTC and the Governments of Tunisia and Egypt in +late July allowing for increased trade and a relaxation of existing travel restrictions. +2. According to this individual, Jalil and Magariaf agree that Tunisia and Egypt hold the key to Libya's +future economic success, with Libya providing the funding for new projects, while Egypt and Tunisia provide +technical expertise.

In this regard, +with the support of both Jalil and Magariaf, the Libyan Ministry of Finance is increasing the level of Libyan +investment in the Cairo stock exchange. In turn, Magariaf and Egyptian President Mohamad Morsi discussed +increased Tunisian and Egyptian investment in the Benghazi stock exchange as the economic situation in Libya +becomes more orderly. +1 In commenting on the new Interim President, Jalil added that Magariaf s current position is bolstered +by the fact that he is not tied to any particular faction. At the same time he has maintained the respect that is +attached to his role as the first Libyan leader to direct an armed revolt against Qaddafi. This fighting was +carried out by the rebel Libyan National Army in 1981. Magariaf is an academic and diplomat with well +established Islamist credentials and good relationships with business and government leaders in the United +States and Western Europe. A separate sensitive source noted that one interesting issue to watch is Magariaf s +relationship with General Khalifa Belqasim Haftar, the commander of one sections of the new Libyan Army. +Haftar has been at odds with many of the militia commanders and is currently leading Libyan forces in the +Kufra region, attempting to end local tribal fighting and block the smuggling of arms and supplies to pro- +Qaddafi militias by supporters based in South Sudan. In the years between 1981 and 1990 Haftar (then Colonel +Haftar) commanded the rebel Libyan National Army, under Magariaf s National Front for the Salvation of +Libya (NFSL). One source notes that Magariaf s opposition to Qaddafi was based on the dictator's betrayal of +Islamic principles, a position that, at that time, was supported by the Western Allies. +4. According to this individual, Jalil also spoke with former Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril, who +indicated that he and Magariaf agree on many issues, including the belief that they can build an Islamic state in +Libya that can function in the world economy and the international diplomatic community. He did note that he +believes Magariaf s view of the role of Islam in the day to day function of the government is more conservative +than his, but these are differences that can be sorted out in the GNC. In the opinion of this individual Jabril is +well aware of the fact that, while his National Force Alliance (NFA) controls a solid bloc of thirty nine (39) +seats in the GNC and Magariaf s National Front Party (NFP) holds no seats in its own right, the interim +President has established good working relationships with at least 100 of the 120 independent members of the +GNC.

This individual believes that Magariaf is very interested in winning the presidency under this new +law.

Jalil +has been highly frustrated by el-Keib's inability to disarm the many militia units left over from the 2011 +revolution against Qaddafi. At the same time he has advised Magariaf to move quickly in replacing el-Keib's +cabinet while deciding which ministers to retain. The new interim government is facing a problem of +lawlessness and attacks against foreigners, including representatives of the Egyptian Government; this at a time +when the new Muslim Brotherhood government of Egypt is reaching out to increase business and diplomatic +contacts between the two countries.

In the opinion of an +extremely sensitive source, Magariaf sees this moment as the climax his entire life's work. Having +first served deposed dictator Muammar al Qaddafi as a policy advisor and diplomat, in 1979 Magariaf +became disenchanted with what he saw as the cult of personality that Qaddafi was building for +himself while turning against the basic beliefs of the Islamist movement. Magariaf was member of the +Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood in his student days and remains a devout Islamist intellectual, albeit +one who believes that Islam can coexist and even work with the non-Muslim world, particularly the +United States and Western Europe. This source also believes that Magariaf is convinced that Libya, +with its great natural wealth, can become a leading player in North Africa, as well as the rest of the +Islamic world. Magariaf is particularly well disposed toward the governments of the United States +and France, based on past experiences with each during his struggle with Qaddafi. This source also +believes that he remains hostile to the government of Omar al Bashir in Sudan. In 1989 Bashir +overthrew Magariafs ally, then Sudanese Prime Minister Sadiq al-Mahdi and expelled Magariaf and +his followers from Khartoum.) +2. According to the same sensitive source, Magariaf will also seek a discreet relationship with +Israel. Political realities in Libya at present will dictate that this relationship be handled in a low key +manner, but the new President of Libya shares many common friends and associates with the leaders +of Israel and intends to take advantage of this situation to improve the lot of the Libyan people. +Magariaf may, at times, be forced to make statements critical of Israel for his own political purposes, +but believes he and his associates have the experience and sophistication to manage this issue.

Magariaf will pursue the economic and +security cooperation set out in the Cairo Declaration of July 29, 2012 establishing a regional bond +between the new revolutionary governments of Tunisia, Libya and Egypt. This same individual notes +that Magariaf is aware of the fact that Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi sees Libya as a key factor +in Egypt's economic development; and the Libyan leader believes he can manipulate this situation to +the advantage of the Libyan people. +3. A separate sensitive source stated on condition of strict secrecy that Magariaf intends to +work with his security advisors to develop a plan for disarming the Islamist militias who fought +against Qaddafi, without arousing their suspicion. He believes that the most important step in this +matter will be providing the medical and economic services demanded by these militias in return for +disarming. Magariaf also believes that he can manage the political ambitions of Islamist leaders like +General Abdelhakim Belhaj, while preventing the growth of radical groups who might see Libya as a +base of operations and support. Magariaf and his supporters believe that his Islamist/anti-Qaddafi +credentials will allow him to manage these challenges, and if he can do so he will be able to win the +presidency outright in the first full scale national presidential election in the spring of 2013. +4. This source adds that, while avoiding direct involvement in the Syrian crisis, the Magariaf +government will support Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the rest of the nations calling for the end of +the regime of Basher al Assad. Magariaf harbors a particular sense of hostility toward Assad, who was +a longtime ally of Qaddafi, supporting him with equipment, intelligence, and advisors throughout the +revolution of 2011. Magariaf realizes that this stance will also bring him into conflict with Syria's ally +Iran, but does not believe Iran has a role to play in Libya, or the rest of North Africa. +5. According to an extremely sensitive source, in 1979 Magariaf, having become increasingly +disenchanted with Qaddafi, fled Libya for Khartoum in Sudan, where in 1981, with the help of the +government of Prime Minister Sadiq al-Mahdi, Chadian leader Hissene Habre, Iraqi President +Sadaam Hussein, and several Western states, he established The National Front for the Salvation of +Libya (NFSL), dedicated to overthrowing Qaddafi and establishing an Islamic democracy in Libya. +Under the auspices of the NFSL, Magariaf also organized the Libyan National Army (LNA), based in +Ndjamena, Chad. The LNA was commanded by the Colonel Khalifa Belqasim Haftar, who is now one +of the commanding generals of the new Libyan Army. Under Magariaf s authority the Haftar force, +which numbered between 2,500 and 3,000 troops, fought several battles with Qaddafi's troops, with +mixed results. These attacks included a raid on Qaddafi's compound at Bab al-Aziza in 1986. The +LNA also maintained a 50,000 watt radio station in Ndjamena, broadcasting anti-Qaddafi material +into Libya. This radio station was supported by Western governments and Iraqi Military Intelligence. +6. The LNA's greatest success came in support of the Chadian Army under General Idriss +Deby, in their overwhelming victory over Libyan troops at the battle Ouadi Doum in 1987. This +victory forced the Libyan Army and Air Force out of Chad, and was supported by the French Air Force +and other Western personnel. Following the battle Deby became a national hero in Chad. In 1990, +with the support of Libyan intelligence officers, Deby, who had undergone military training in Libya +and France, rebelled against and overthrew the Habre Government. At that time Deby, under +Qaddafi's influence, forced the LNA to abandon Chad for Zaire, and eventually the United States. +Magariaf and Haftar both settled in the United States, and while the LNA no longer existed as an +effective force, Magariaf continued to maintain the NFSL as a political organization. In 2004 +Magariaf and the NFSL joined the National Conference for the Libyan Opposition (NCLO), eventually +returning to support the 2011 revolution. +7.

(Source Comment: As the new interim President of Libya Mohammed Yussef el +Magariaf is determined to establish a democratic state based on Islamic principles. In the +opinion of an extremely sensitive source, Magariaf sees this moment as the climax his entire +life's work. Having first served deposed dictator Muammar al Qaddafi as a policy advisor and +diplomat, in 1979 Magariaf became disenchanted with what he saw as the cult of personality that +Qaddafi was building for himself while turning against the basic beliefs of the Islamist +movement. Magariaf was member of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood in his student days and +remains a devout Islamist intellectual, albeit one who believes that Islam can coexist and even +work with the non-Muslim world, particularly the United States and Western Europe. This +source also believes that Magariaf is convinced that Libya, with its great natural wealth, can +become a leading player in North Africa, as well as the rest of the Islamic world. Magariaf is +particularly well disposed toward the governments of the United States and France, based on past +experiences with each during his struggle with Qaddafi. This source also believes that he +remains hostile to the government of Omar al Bashir in Sudan. In 1989 Bashir overthrew +Magariar s ally, then Sudanese Prime Minister Sadiq al-Mahdi and expelled Magariaf and his +followers from Khartoum.) +2. According to the same sensitive source, Magariaf will also seek a discreet relationship +with Israel. Political realities in Libya at present will dictate that this relationship be handled in a +low key manner, but the new President of Libya shares many common friends and associates +with the leaders of Israel and intends to take advantage of this situation to improve the lot of the +Libyan people. Magariaf may, at times, be forced to make statements critical of Israel for his +own political purposes, but believes he and his associates have the experience and sophistication +to manage this issue.

This same individual notes that Magariaf is aware of the fact that +Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi sees Libya as a key factor in Egypt's economic +development; and the Libyan leader believes he can manipulate this situation to the advantage of +the Libyan people. +3. A separate sensitive source stated on condition of strict secrecy that Magariaf intends +to work with his security advisors to develop a plan for disarming the Islamist militias who +fought against Qaddafi, without arousing their suspicion. He believes that the most important +step in this matter will be providing the medical and economic services demanded by these +militias in return for disarming. Magariaf also believes that he can manage the political +ambitions of Islamist leaders like General Abdelhakim Belhaj, while preventing the growth of +radical groups who might see Libya as a base of operations and support. Magariaf and his +supporters believe that his Islamistianti-Qaddafi credentials will allow him to manage these +challenges, and if he can do so he will be able to win the presidency outright in the first full sca'e +national presidential election in the spring of 2013. +4. This source adds that, while avoiding direct involvement in the Syrian crisis, the +Magariaf government will support Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the rest of the nations +calling for the end of the regime of Basher al Assad. Magariaf harbors a particular sense of +hostility toward Assad, who was a longtime ally of Qaddafi, supporting him with equipment, +intelligence, and advisors throughout the revolution of 2011, Magariaf realizes that this stance +will also bring him into conflict with Syria's ally Iran, but does not believe Iran has a role to play +in Libya, or the rest of North Africa. +5. According to an extremely sensitive source, in 1979 Magariaf, having become +increasingly disenchanted with Qaddafi, fled Libya for Khartoum in Sudan, where in 1981, with +the help of the government of Prime Minister Sadiq al-Mahdi, Chadian leader Hissene Habre, +Iraqi President Sadaam Hussein, and several Western states, he established The National Front +for the Salvation of Libya (NFSL), dedicated to overthrowing Qaddafi and establishing an +Islamic democracy in Libya. Under the auspices of the NFSL, Magariaf also organized the +Libyan National Army (LNA), based in Ndjamena, Chad. The LNA was commanded by the +Colonel Khalifa Belqasim Haftar, who is now one of the commanding generals of the new +Libyan Army. Under Magariars authority the Haftar force, which numbered between 2,500 and +3,000 troops, fought several battles with Qaddafi's troops, with mixed results. These attacks +included a raid on Qaddafi's compound at Bab al-Aziza in 1986. The LNA also maintained a +50,000 watt radio station in Ndjamena, broadcasting anti-Qaddafi material into Libya. This radio +station was supported by Western governments and Iraqi Military Intelligence. +6. The LNA's greatest success came in support of the Chadian Army under General +Idriss Deby, in their overwhelming victory over Libyan troops at the battle Ouadi Doum in 1987. +This victory forced the Libyan Army and Air Force out of' Chad, and was supported by the +French Air Force and other Western personnel. Following the battle Deby became a national +hero in Chad. In 1990, with the support of Libyan intelligence officers, Deby, who had +undergone military training in Libya and France, rebelled against and overthrew the Habre +Government A.t that time Deby, under Qaddafi's influence, forced the LNA to abandon Chad. +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739890 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

During the afternoon of September 11, 2012 new interim President of Libya +Mohammed Yussef el Magariaf spoke in private with senior advisors, including the +members of the Libyan Muslim Brotherhood, to discuss the attacks by demonstrators +on U.S. missions in Tripoli and Benghazi. According to a sensitive source, el Magariaf +was shaken by the attacks, and gave permission to commanders on the ground for +security forces to open fire over the heads of the crowds in an effort to break up mobs +attacking the missions. During this session, a senior security officer told el Magariaf +that the attacks on that day were inspired by what many devout Libyan viewed as a +sacrilegious internet video on the prophet Mohammed originating in America. The +Libyan attacks were also inspired by and linked to an attack on the U.S. mission in +Egypt on the same day.

This source added that el Magariafs advisors believe that this situation adds +to the President's growing concern over the unpredictable effects that will follow +current covert efforts by his political opponents to link him directly to foreign +intelligence services. According to a separate sensitive source, el Magariaf noted that +his opponents had often tried to connect him to the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency +(CIA) through the National Front for the Salvation of Libya (NFSL), a group +established in opposition to former dictator Muammar al Qaddafi, which el Magariaf +led in the 198os. In the opinion of this individual el Magariaf believes that he can +survive potential negative publicity in this regard, but if this situation continues to +develop in this manner it will complicate his efforts to establish an orderly +administration in the country. Again, he stated that the attacks on the U.S. missions +were as much a result of the atmosphere created by this campaign, as the controversial +internet video. +3. At the same time, this .individual noted that several of el Magariaf s advisors +share his concerns in this matter, pointing out that the return of Qaddafi's intelligence +chief Abdullah al-Senoussi for trial in Libya has heightened public interest in the +liaison relationships conducted by the CIA and British Secret Intelligence Service (SIS) +with Qaddfis intelligence and security services. These same individuals note that they +believe Islamist militia forces under the command of General Abdeihaldm Belhaj +captured files and documents describing this relationship from Qaddafi's offices in +Tripoli. This fascination with Western intelligence operations in Qaddafi's Libya is also +driven by Human Rights Watch (HRW) and its efforts to tie Western governments to +human rights violations committed under Qaddafi. In this regard HRW has +interviewed at least fourteen (14) individuals claiming that they were.turned over to +Qaddafi's forces by the Western powers. Belhaj is included in this group. +4. (Source Comment: In the opinion of a very sensitive source, el Magariaf s +enemies are .working to take advantage of his suspected links to the CIA at a time when +Western intelligence services are under scrutiny in Libya. They also fear that this +situation will only grow more complex as Qaddafi's son Saif al Islam Qaddafi and al +Senousi are brought before Libyan courts to answer for their crimes under the old +regime, particularly during the 2011 revolution. These individuals believe both men +will be linked to Western Intelligence during their trials. ) +5. According to this individual, el Magariaf is working with the Muslim +Brotherhood and other Islamist groups to defuse this situation. He is particularly +concerned by the level of violence between Sufi Muslims and Salafists, and believes he +must maintain his reputation for impartiality if he is to defuse this growing problem. +As he works to organize the government, and disarm the militias, he cannot afford to +lose the respect and trust of the Libyan people, especially at a time when cultural +UNCLASSIFIED +Plashes between followers of the mystical Sufi tradition and ultra-conservative Salafis +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739902 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

We are still making next of kin notifications for the other two individuals. Our hearts go out to all +their families and colleagues. +A 23. year veteran of the Foreign Service, Ambassador Stevens died last night from injuries he sustained in the attack on +our office in Benghazi. +I had the privilege of swearing in Chris for his post in Libya only a few months ago. He spoke eloquently about his +passion for service, for diplomacy and for the Libyan people. This assignment was only the latest in his more than two +decades of dedication to advancing closer ties with the people of the Middle East and North Africa which began as a +Peace Corps Volunteer in Morocco. As the conflict in Libya unfolded, Chris was one of the first Americans on the ground +in Benghazi. He risked his own life to lend the Libyan people a helping hand to build the foundation for a new, free +nation. He spent every day since helping to finish the work that he started. Chris was committed to advancing America's +values and interests, even when that meant putting himself in danger. +Sean was a husband and a father of two, who joined the Department ten +years ago.

We are still making next of kin notifications for the other two individuals. Our hearts go out to all +their families and colleagues. +A 23. year veteran of the Foreign Service, Ambassador Stevens died last night from injuries he sustained in the attack on +our office in Benghazi. +I had the privilege of swearing in Chris for his post in Libya only a few months ago. He spoke eloquently about his +passion for service, for diplomacy and for the Libyan people. This assignment was only the latest in his more than two +decades of dedication to advancing closer ties with the people of the Middle East and North Africa which began as a +Peace Corps Volunteer in Morocco. As the conflict in Libya unfolded, Chris was one of the first Americans on the ground +in Benghazi. He risked his own life to lend the Libyan people a helping hand to build the foundation for a new, free +nation. He spent every day since helping to finish the work that he started. Chris was committed to advancing America's +values and interests, even when that meant putting himself in danger. +Sean was a husband and a father of two, who joined the Department ten +years ago. Like Chris, Sean was one of our best. All the Americans +we lost in yesterday's attacks made the ultimate sacrifice. We condemn this vicious and violent attack that took their +lives, which they had committed to helping the Libyan people reach for a better future. +America's diplomats and development experts stand on the front lines every day for our country. We are honored by +the service of each and every one of them. +1#tit +UNCLASSIFIED +U.S. Department of State +Case No. F-2015-04841 +Doc No. C05739906 +Date: 05/13/2015 +STATE DEPT. - PRODUCED TO HOUSE SELECT BENGHAZI COMM. +SUBJECT TO AGREEMENT ON SENSITIVE INFORMATION & REDACTIONS.

Ports +remain a critical bottleneck to a job creation strategy both in garment manufacturing and agriculture. They also play a +pivotal role in ensuring that some of the complementary imports necessary for the proposed road construction projects +can enter the country both in the required quantities and in a cost-effective and timely manner. Elsewhere I have argued +that spiraling prices in construction booms often mean that available funds only go half way to the finishing line. +The Haitian authorities have already made inroads in addressing some of these inefficiencies and stand ready to +do more.

John can tell you more details ... +it would be wonderful if a time could be found sometime during the week +(Sunday-Friday) for Hillary to meet with the entire group of bishops (around 100 total) or at least the leaders of the +African bishops (perhaps a group of 10 or so). +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758447 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758447 Date: 06/30/2015 +John notes that the group can be flexible and accomodate Hillary's busy schedule. He suggests that there are a couple +of ideal evening opportunities where all the bishops will be present: this Sunday evening at 6 pm at American +University's Arts Center, or Wednesday at 6 pm at the Hyatt in Bethesda. There also is a Tuesday evening gathering and +reception with just the African bishops -- 7 pm onwards at AP Shaw UMC in SE DC. +If it is not possible for her to go to the bishops, I wonder whether it might be possible for a smaller group (eg, John, the +African bishops and a couple others) to come to the State Department for a meeting in the Secretary's suite or +conference room on the 7th floor. The Secretary obviously has a very busy schedule, but it might well be possible to find +20-30 minutes sometime during the week at the Department. (I haven't yet done so, but I will check the State Dept +website and see what her announced travel schedule is.) +I am happy to help however I can, though it probably is easiest if you coordinate directly. Feel free to copy me at the +above emails if I can be helpful.

The U.S. may commit $11.5 billion over five +years to Pakistan, and it is critical that we look closely at how we might spend that money. In Acumen Fund's seven +years working in Pakistan we have found that models for change exist, and we have built a powerful community of +entrepreneurs and supporters within Pakistan. As you know we have invested in organizations like Saiban, which has +provided low-cost housing to more than 60,000. There is FMIA, a joint venture that has sold more than 30,000 health +insurance policies. And Kashf, a microfinance institution serving more than 300,000 poor women by making small loans +to help themselves change their own lives. The challenge is to grow these solutions from reaching hundreds of +thousands to the millions most in need. +I believe this kind of investment in Pakistan is the ""smart power"" that Secretary Clinton referred to in her speech at the +Global Philanthropy Forum. She has an incredible vision and Acumen Fund would love to find ways to support her. +Anything you could do would be truly appreciated. And do let me know anything I can do on this end as I feel a deep +sense of urgency and want to do all I can to contribute. +Thanks so much, +Jacqueline +Jacqueline Novogratz I CEO I Acumen Fund +76 Ninth Avenue, Suite 315 (@15th St.); New York, NY 10011 +jnovogratz@acumenfund.org I www.acumenfund.org I www.acumenfundblog.org +My new book: The Blue Sweater +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758560 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +392,C05758562,SPEECH,cheryl.mills,H,80,2009-05-21T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/2_3_4/DOC_0C05758562/C05758562.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Speech,'cheryl.mills abedinh@state.gov'; 'sullivanjj@state.gov'; B6,H ,,"Thursday, Ma 21 2009 6 31 AM",F-2014-20439,C05758562,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Can we try to change the Sri Lanka call and reschedule Stephens and postpone until later the Angolans so I can go to +speech?•","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758562 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: H +Sent: Thursday, Ma 21 2009 6 31 AM +To: 'cheryl.mills abedinh@state.gov'; 'sullivanjj@state.gov'; B6 +'ValmoroU@state.gov' +Subject: Speech +Can we try to change the Sri Lanka call and reschedule Stephens and postpone until later the Angolans so I can go to +speech?• +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758562 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +393,C05758564,SPEECH,ValmoroLJ@state.gov,H,80,2009-05-21T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/2_3_4/DOC_0C05758564/C05758564.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Speech,'ValmoroU@state.gov'; 'cheryl.mill,H ,,"Thursday, May 21, 2009 7:09 AM",F-2014-20439,C05758564,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"'abedinh@state.gov'; B6 +Yes--but I don't want to lose the Sri Lankan call for today since it's taken awhile to set up and is very important.

""Ken +Loach has always been critical of censorship of his own work, albeit it was many years in the past.

One, A Question of Leadership, was made in 1981 but never broadcast, +leading to accusations of political censorship from Loach.

The irony of the director's present position was all the more +obvious, given the spirit of the Edinburgh festival, Sir Jeremy said. +""It must be good for cinemagoers at an international film festival to see films by Jews, Arabs, Israelis and Palestinians, to +the benefit of all,"" he said. +""I have admired the Edinburgh International Film Festival for many years and would like to think that this appalling +decision will be rescinded."" +Loach's acclaimed new film Looking for Eric has made him the toast of the Cannes Film Festival. It is, uncharacteristically, +a comedy, although its lead character is an authentic Loach creation — a Mancunian postman who goes off in search of +his idol, the footballer Eric Cantona. +Ezer's film makes no reference to war or politics. It is a romance set in a sex-therapy clinic. It won the audience award at +an international women's film festival in Israel recently. +Lord Janner of Braunstone, a Labour peer and former chairman of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, said that he was +disappointed by the festival's decision. ""By banning the Israeli Embassy from supporting a film-maker the festival is +helping to exclude Israelis from British cultural life, something that is clearly unfair."" +Last night a spokesman for the EIFF said that although it had returned £300 to the Israeli Embassy, the festival itself +would fund Ms Shalom-Ezer's travel to Edinburgh out of its own budget +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758605 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +411,C05758611,FYI,abedinh@state.gov,H,80,2009-05-25T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/2_3_4/DOC_0C05758611/C05758611.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Fyi,'abedinh@state.gov',H ,,"Monday, May 25, 2009 9:33 AM",F-2014-20439,C05758611,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Good since it happens to be true!

WITH $150 IN HIS POCKET, DANIEL YOHANNES BRINGS A QUIET DETERMINATION TO HIS +TRUSTEE ROLE. +By Leah Arroyo +This article was published in Museum, July/August 2008. +Trustee. The word brings to mind a venerable patrician of senior-Nears, ""trusted"" to guide the interests of an +organization or individual with wisdom and perspective. Someone with old-boy or -girl connections, decades of expertise +and, especially, big bucks—not to mention the ability to pry others away from theirs. Ascot not required, but it couldn't +hurt. +In certain ways, Daniel Yohannes of Denver is not your typical museum trustee. At 17, with $150, he moved from +Ethiopia to Los Angeles as an exchange student without knowing a soul. He immediately got a part-time job as a stock +boy in a clothing store and went on to support himself through high school, Claremont McKenna College and the MBA +program at Pepperdine. He began his banking career as a teller at Security Pacific Bank. +But in other ways, Yohannes is the very portrait of a board member. At 55, the president and CEO of M&R Investments, +a firm specializing in real estate, financial institutions and energy. A former vice chairman of U.S. Bancorp. A few years +ago he started a bank in San Francisco on the side. His board membership extends from the financial (a Fortune 100 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758636 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758636 Date: 07/31/2015 +company) and educational (U.C. Denver Business School) to community organizations (the chamber of commerce, the +National Jewish Hospital and Research Center, the Boy Scouts Council)—not to mention political service (chairing the +transition team of Gov. Bill Ritter, Democrat of Colorado). +And museums, a priority among the board invitations he has accepted. He served on the Smithsonian Institution's +national board for six years and is now a trustee of the Denver Art Museum (DAM), where he established the Daniel +Yohannes Family African Gallery. ""I get a lot of my inspirations intellectually and culturally through art and history, +primarily through museums,"" he says. ""So when I was asked to sit on the [DAM] board, it was just a natural fit for me."" +For all his success, though, Yohannes hardly gives the impression of a Type-A personality. Courtly, soft-spoken, with a +melodious accent paying homage to his Ethiopian roots despite his decades in the U.S., he is generous and unhurried +with his time in interviews. On the phone, he asks how you are, what you've been up to lately; told that an interviewer +just bought her first house, he chats for a few moments about how delightful and meaningful that purchase is. In +person, for a conversation at the AAM Annual Meeting in Denver last spring, he walked into a rather dreary +underground room in the convention center, suave in a conservative navy suit and warm in his greetings, politely +oblivious to the tables cluttered with the conference staff's walkie-talkies, office supplies and assortment of snacks. The +photographer got sent to the wrong room and his interviewer had to scurry the length of several football fields to find +her? No problem; he'd reserved plenty of time to talk. ""Take your time."" +And yet you can at times glimpse the calm determination of a man who gets things done and, moreover, fully expects to. +Vicki Sterling, the Denver Art Museum's assistant director, says that ""what was truly unique about working with +[Yohannes] on the African gallery was his ability to bring together people from outside the regular museum donor +community and get them interested in the Denver Art Museum."" When you ask him how he did this, who these new +museophiles were, you can almost hear him shrug over the phone. ""Friends of mine, people I knew,"" he says. ""They +contributed because I. asked them to."" He also shrugs off the question of how he fits all his commitments into his +schedule: ""I think as long as there's a desire to get everything done, it gets done."" Asked what he does for fun, he has to +think for a moment. ""That's a good one.... I walk, I play a little golf, do a little bicycling, sightseeing."" He also collects +art, particularly African works, inspired years ago by his travels, though ""only as a hobby."" Last but not least, he +cherishes spending time with his three children, two of whom live in the area, and was overjoyed to become a +grandfather in May (""She's beautiful,"" he beams). +You walk away from him with an impression of a quietly dynamic man who has more priorities than most of us but can +somehow bring extraordinary focus to each in turn. He says he was driven from the very beginning. ""It was my decision +to come here, not my family's. I've always been a very adventurous person, ever since I was a child, so I made a decision +early on that I wanted to make it on my own. I wanted to go to a place that provided that opportunity for someone like +myself, an immigrant. I could not find any other place but here in the United States that provided all of that +opportunity."" Perhaps later generations of his family will be more jaded about the American dream, but Yohannes +speaks of it with unembarrassed directness. ""For someone like myself, it's much easier to give to the community that +has given you so much."" +Fortunately, he sees museum leadership as part of that obligation. +PS: +Margaret +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758636 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +428,C05758640,CHECKING IN,abedinh@state.gov,H,80,2009-05-28T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/2_3_4/DOC_0C05758640/C05758640.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Checking in,'abedinh@state.gov',H ,,"Thursday, May 28, 2009 7:40 PM",F-2014-20439,C05758640,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Anything I need to know?,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758640 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: H +Sent: Thursday, May 28, 2009 7:40 PM +To: 'abedinh@state.gov' +Subject: Checking in +Anything I need to know? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758640 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +429,C05758641,CHECKING IN,abedinh@state.gov,H,80,2009-05-28T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/2_3_4/DOC_0C05758641/C05758641.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Checking in,'abedinh@state.gov',H ,,"Thursday, May 28, 2009 7:45 PM",F-2014-20439,C05758641,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Could Carl come tomorrow morning at 8?,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758641 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: H +Sent: Thursday, May 28, 2009 7:45 PM +To: 'abedinh@state.gov' +Subject: Re: Checking in +Could Carl come tomorrow morning at 8? +Original Message +From: Abedin, Huma +To: H +Sent: Thu May 28 19:42:45 2009 +Subject: RE: Checking in +Isabelle 7:30 +Still working through trip planning, Saudi still off and Honduras still on though the discussions are still dismal. +Original Message +From: H [mailto:HDR22@clintonemail.com] +Sent: Thursday, May 28, 2009 7:40 PM +To: Abedin, Huma +Subject: Checking in +Anything I need to know? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758641 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +430,C05758642,FRAME,abedinh@state.gov,H,80,2009-05-29T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/2_3_4/DOC_0C05758642/C05758642.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Fw: FW: Frame,'abedinh@state.gov',H ,,"Friday, May 29, 2009 7:30 AM",F-2014-20439,C05758642,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Pls print.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758642 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B5,B6 +From: H +Sent: Friday, May 29, 2009 7:30 AM +To: 'abedinh@state.gov' +Subject: Fw: FW: Frame +Pls print. +Original Message +From: Mills, Cheryl D +To: H +Sent: Fri May 29 05:43:14 2009 +Subject: Fw: FW: Frame +Fyi +Jim's thoughts on doc +Cdm +From: Jim Kennedy +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Cc: +Sent: Fri May 29 02:35:47 2009 +Subject: Re: FW: Frame +I think this is very good.

This is kind of like 3 dimensional chess - strange and complicated +alliances need to be made to grapple with a multitude of cross-cutting challenges. This is calculus, not arithmetic. +- would like to be sure religions are involved here, vis a vis the various partnerships. It can be either a powerful force of +positive change, or it can get in the way of progress, depending on how it's used or abused, but to the extent allowed +Constitutionally, the power of religion should be encouraged in the direction of alliances and partnerships of progress. +- as I think about Kennan's ""containment"" doctrine a little further - in some ways it can be reapplied to extremism, +meaning that our goal should be to contain not Communism this time, but extremist ideology whereever it exists, and +just as Kennan supported, development is one of the ways to build those walls of containment around a dangerous +ideology. We want to contain extremist, nihilistic, violent ideologies and movements whereever they might take root, +and a good way to do that is to focus on development, on women, on technology, on education. +The power of diplomacy rests on two foundations. On the one hand, there is the reality and potentiality of military +force. Without having the capacity to defend, and to project force, diplomacy is inherently weak and ineffectual. +On the other hand, development is the other foundation upon which successful diplomacy can be built. It's the carrot to +the military's stick. And the State Department has an integral role to play in both the diplomatic and developmental +parts of that tripod (while also being understanding of, and when necessary supportive of, implementing the military +part). +The connective tissue of security, prosperity and humanity is, as you suggest, ""purpose,"" or more prosaically - +""morality."" Morals. It is immoral for people to live in fear, to be unprotected, to be subject to harm and death. It is +immoral for people's human rights to be violated, to not have access to education and heatlh. And it is immoral to be +denied the opportunity to grow, to create a better future for children, etc. To let, as Roy has said, every child to live up +to his or her God-given potential. +one last point - on shared humanity, perhaps protecting the natural resources of the Earth - environmentalism - should +be referenced along with health and human rights. It's part of the underpinning of our international morality and the +kind of partnership we need to solve global warming, etc. +On Thu, May 21, 2009 at 11:33 AM, Mills, Cheryl D wrote: +Can you both take a look at this — if this implementing agenda works, we will use language of purpose to +surround it. +cdm +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758642 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +431,C05758643,UPDATE TO BLOG ON ,millscd@state.gov,H,80,2009-05-29T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_1-11M/DOC_0C05758643/C05758643.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Re: update to blog o,'millscd@state.gov.,H ,,"Friday, May 29, 2009 6:30 PM",F-2014-20439,C05758643,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758643 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: H +Sent: Friday, May 29, 2009 6:30 PM +To: 'millscd@state.gov. +Subject: Re: update to blog o +Original Message +From: Mills, Cheryl D +To: H +Sent: Fri May 29 17:51:59 2009 +Subject: FW: update to blog on +fyi +From: Toiv, Nora F +Sent: Friday, May 29, 2009 5:51 PM +To: Reines, Philippe I; MillsChe I D +Subject: update to blog on +UPDATE (May 29): is under consideration, but the appointment is not a done deal.

Obama had long wanted his former rival on his team, no matter what his friends and aides said about her +aggressive campaign... His staff opposed the idea for the most part, arguing that Clinton would never be truly loyal. But +Obama was willing to leave the primaries behind, including his own strong feelings at the time. ""I don't hold grudges,"" +he told his aides. ""I don't worry about the past. I'm concerned about what happens now. If she can help me and Bill +Clinton isn't too much of a liability, we should seriously look at this."" ... +Obama was under no illusion about the legacy of the long primary season. During one transition meeting, Obama said he +wanted to offer Clinton the diplomatic job. ""I'm really interested in pursuing this, but I know she has some hard feelings +coming out of this campaign."" Emanuel and John Podesta, the former Clinton official who ran the transition, assured +Obama that she was over those hard feelings now. Obama smiled and said, ""Believe me. She's not over it yet."" +His decision to offer her the job of secretary of state came surprisingly early. Well before the end of the primaries, when +his staff and friends still felt hostile to her, Obama decided that Clinton possessed the qualities to carry his diplomacy to +the rest of the world. ""We actually thought during the primary, when we were pretty sure we were going to win, that +she could end up being a very effective secretary of state,"" he told me later. ""I felt that she was disciplined, that she was +precise, that she was smart as a whip, and that she would present a really strong image to the world...I had that mapped +out."" +Recruiting and managing a team of rivals would not be easy, and Clinton came with her own set of issues. Chief among +them was her campaign debt, which she wanted eliminated before she took the job of secretary of state. Would the +president-elect go out and help her to do so? ""I'm not begging her to take this job,"" Obama told his senior aides. ""If she +•wants it, I could help. But I'm not willing to go out in these difficult economic times to do a flashy fundraiser in +California."" As it happened, plenty of people in the Senate were begging Obama to offer Clinton the job. Obama's aides +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758676 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758676 Date: 06/30/2015 +believed that many Senate Democrats thought Clinton had extended her presidential campaign far beyond the point +where she had lost the election. Her negative advertising wasted Democratic money, threatened to undermine the +party's nominee, and suggested that she was disloyal to the party. They were unwilling to offer the junior New York +senator a position ahead of her lowly rank, and she stood little chance of becoming majority leader. ""There was a lot of +encouragement from inside the Senate to get her into this job,"" said one senior Obama aide. ""They wanted her out of +there."" ... +As for controlling the uncontrollable Bill Clinton, Obama's aides drew up a series of checks on his fundraising for both +Clinton Global Initiative and his work on HIV/AIDS across the world. But they really counted on Hillary to be the ultimate +safeguard - against both her husband and her own ambition. ""It's in her interests to keep him in line,"" warned one senior +Obama aide. Others in Obama's inner circle said the president-elect believed Clinton needed to demonstrate that she +was a team player and to shape her own career and legacy. ""There are plenty who don't trust her and think she still +harbors something,"" said another senior adviser. ""It's still potentially problematic down the road. Barack's thinking on +this is that it's not in her interests to mess with us. She can't win that fight internally and she's smart enough that she +won't want that fight publicly."" +Several weeks into the administration, even Clinton's internal critics believed the relationship was a success. ""They have +both worked really hard at it,"" said one senior White House official. ""There's a natural affinity and respect that ironically +grew out of being opponents.

But what he cast as a principled difference of approach -- was the problem merely that +people couldn't afford insurance? or something more? -- seems to have been conceded. +Here's the relevant paragraph: +I understand the Committees are moving towards a principle of shared responsibility -- making every American +responsible for having health insurance coverage, and asking that employers share in the cost. I share the goal of ending +lapses and gaps in coverage that make us less healthy and drive up everyone's costs, and I am open to your ideas on +shared responsibility.

He has a remarkable story: +born in a mud hut in Ethiopia, he got his PhD from Purdue University in plant breeding and genetics and developed +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758705 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758705 Date: 06/30/2015 +strains of sorghum that are drought-tolerant, high-yield, and resistant to the Striga weed, which devastates crops across +Africa. +Outside the lab, he helped start the Sudanese commercial seed industry; developed systems to produce, certify, and +market hybrid seeds; and educated farmers about the use of fertilizers and soil and water conservation. And he has +trained and inspired the next generation of African agricultural scientists. +A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH: FROM LAB TO FARM TO MARKET TO TABLE +Dr. Ejeta's work reflects the breadth of this issue and the comprehensive approach needed to address it—one that +connects the labs where new seed technologies are developed.., the fields where small-scale farmers labor to feed their +families and make a living.., the markets where food is bought and sold... and the homes where people get the +nourishment they need to thrive. +In many places, that food chain is broken. One billion people worldwide woke up hungry this morning and will go to +sleep hungry tonight. Chronic hunger threatens health, while making it harder for people to work and students to learn, +which in turn stunts economic development. Last year's food riots demonstrated that when food is scarce, political +stability is threatened. +To date, the world's primary response to hunger has been to send emergency food aid. While this saves lives, it is a +short-term fix, and we need a long-term solution. +The Obama Administration is committed to leading in developing a new global approach. We will support the creation +of sustainable agricultural systems in appropriate regions around the world, to increase agricultural productivity, create +jobs, strengthen economies, and protect natural resources. +We will do this not by imposing one-size-fits-all solutions, but by assisting countries in carrying out individual strategies +that meet their needs—for example, through the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development Plan. To facilitate +coordination and share best practices, we will seek to convene donor governments, multilateral institutions, NG0s, +private companies, foundations, universities, and individuals. +THE ANCHORS OF OUR APPROACH +We've identified seven anchors that secure sustainable agriculture systems. These will guide our approach. +• Increase agricultural productivity by expanding access to quality seeds, fertilizer, irrigation, the credit to purchase +them, and the training to use them. +• Stimulate the post-harvest sector by improving the storage and processing of food and improving transportation to +connect small farmers to markets. +• Maintain natural resources so the land can be farmed well into the future and we can make the right adaptations +for the changing environment. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758705 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758705 Date: 06/30/2015 +Expand knowledge and training by support R&D and developing the next generation of agriculture scientists. +Increase trade so small-scale farmers in developing countries can sell their crops far and wide. +• Support policy reform and good governance, because sustainable agriculture flourishes in a,clear and predictable +policy and regulatory environment. +• Support women and families in agriculture. Seventy percent of the world's farmers are women, but most of the +programs that offer credit and training to farmers target men. This must change for agriculture to thrive. And children +must have nutrition to contribute to their communities' future. +A PREVIEW OF WHAT'S TO COME +In the coming weeks, President Obama, Secretary Vilsack and I will be reaching out to share our approach to global +coordination and agriculture in greater detail. We will seek the input, wisdom and guidance of those who have been +working so long in this arena—from the Congress to NGOs to academics to foundations to the private sector. The +President's conversations at the G-8 meeting in Italy in two weeks will address our approach, as well as my trip to Africa +in August. +Addressing hunger and food is essential to achieving economic recovery, stabilizing societies, and expanding opportunity +for hundreds of millions of people worldwide. This is why supporting sustainable agriculture worldwide will be a central +element of foreign policy in the Obama Administration. +CONCLUSION +You can circle back to the story of Dr. Ejeta to close. He represents the need for a multinational approach: born in +Ethiopia, educated in the United States, advised by Indian scientists, advisor to several African nations. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758705 Date: 06/30/2015 . + " +466,C05758707,JIM STEINBERG,abedinh@state.gov,H,80,2009-06-07T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/2_3_4/DOC_0C05758707/C05758707.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Jim steinberg,'abedinh@state.gov',H ,,"Sunday, June 7, 2009 9:52 AM",F-2014-20439,C05758707,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Thx.

That is why I feel compelled to add my voice to the growing +number of senior U.S. generals, admirals, and veterans calling for immediate actions to address the alarming national +security threats posed by climate change and our dependence on foreign oil. +We import over half our oil from countries that are hostile to us. Last year, we paid over $255 BILLION to Middle +Eastern countries that are the primary funders for terrorists groups like Al Qaeda and to Russia and Venezuela. +The U.S. consumes more energy than any other country in the world, so increased U.S. fuel efficiency standards and +reliance on renewable energy will directly affect not only our own economic prosperity, but world energy prices as well. +That matters because when the cost of a barrel of crude oil increases $10, the Ayatollah Khamenei in Iran gets $15 +billion more, Putin in Russia gets an extra $36 billion, and Hugo Chavez in Venezuela gets an additional $10 billion to +prop up his anti-American regime. +Furthermore, since the military is the largest energy consumer in the U.S., that same $10/barrel increase means DoD has +to spend $1.3 billion more on fuel, which is equal to the entire procurement budget for the Marine Corps. +But our reliance on foreign oil does more than fund our enemies. The droughts, famines, and rising sea levels caused by +climate change pose perhaps the greatest destabilizing influence the world will face over the next 50 years. +Forty percent of the world's population gets its drinking water from mountain glaciers that could disappear within +decades. Without forceful and decisive action, conflict will likely erupt among climate refugees competing for dwindling +resources and political destabilization will create ungoverned spaces where terrorists can flourish. These effects were +seen in Afghanistan in the 1990s and are currently being experienced in Somalia and Darfur, were genocide erupted +following the drying of Lake Chad, leaving 300,000 dead. +We must act now. A huge coalition of faith and military leaders have joined together to support efforts in Congress to +pass effective climate change legislation this year. We need you to add your voice to ours by taking 1 minute to +encourage your Member of Congress to support this effort.

Kudos to Jonathan Prince for getting +this written and placed. +The Settlements Facts +By Daniel Kurtzer +Sunday, June 14, 2009 +Faulty analysis of the Israeli settlement issue is being passed off as fact. Charles Krauthammer's June 5 column, ""The +Settlements Myth ,"" +is one example. +Here are the facts: In 2003, the Israeli government accepted, with some reservations, the ""road map"" for peace, which +imposed two requirements on Israel regarding settlements: ""GOI [Government of Israel] immediately dismantles +settlement outposts erected since March 2001. Consistent with the Mitchell Report, GOI freezes all settlement activity +(including natural growth of settlements)."" +Today, Israel maintains that three events -- namely, draft understandings discussed in 2003 between Prime Minister +Ariel Sharon and U.S. deputy national security adviser Stephen Hadley; President George W. Bush's April 14, 2004, letter +to Sharon; and an April 14 letter from Sharon adviser Dov Weissglas to national security adviser Condoleezza Rice -- +constitute a formal understanding in which the United States accepted continuing Israeli building within the +""construction line"" of settlements. The problem is that there was no such understanding. +The first event the Israelis cite is the 2003 discussions on a four-part draft that included the notion that construction +within settlements might be permitted if confined to the already built-up areas of the settlements. The idea was to draw +a line around the outer perimeter of built-up areas in settlements and to allow building only inside that line. This draft +was never codified, and no effort was made then to define the line around the built-up areas of settlements. +B6 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758778 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758778 Date: 06/30/2015 +Nonetheless, Israel began to act largely in accordance with its own reading of these provisions, probably believing that +U.S. silence conferred assent. +Second, President Bush's 2004 letter conveyed U.S. support of an agreed outcome of negotiations in which Israel would +retain ""existing major Israeli population centers"" in the West Bank ""on the basis of mutually agreed changes ...."" One +of the key provisions of this letter was that U.S. support for Israel's retaining some settlements was predicated on there +being an ""agreed outcome"" of negotiations. Despite Israel's contention that this letter allowed it to continue building in +the large settlement blocs of Ariel, Maale Adumim and Gush Etzion, the letter did not convey any U.S. support for or +understanding of Israeli settlement activities in these or other areas in the run-up to a peace agreement. +In his 2004 letter to Rice, Weissglas addressed the issue of the ""construction line,"" saying that ""within the agreed +principles of settlement activities, an effort will be made in the next few days to have a better definition of the +construction line of settlements in Judea & Samaria."" However, there never were any ""agreed principles of settlement +activities."" Moreover, the effort to define the ""construction line"" was never consummated: Israel and the United States +discussed briefly but did not reach agreement on the definition of the construction line of settlements. Weissglas's letter +also promised ""continuous action"" to remove all the unauthorized outposts, but Israel removed almost none of them. +Throughout this period, the Bush administration did not regularly protest Israel's continuing settlement activity. But this +is very different from arguing that the United States agreed with it. In recent days, former senior Bush administration +officials have told journalists on background that no understandings existed with Israel regarding continued settlement +activity. +Commentators also focus on the Obama administration's reiteration that a freeze must include the ""natural growth"" of +settlements. Krauthammer says that this ""means strangling to death the thriving towns close to the 1949 armistice line. +.. It means no increase in population. Which means no babies."" This is nonsense. No one suggests that Israelis stop +having babies. Rather, the blessing of a new baby does not translate into a right to build more apartments or houses in +settlements. The two issues have nothing to do with each other. Israelis, like Americans, move all the time when life +circumstances -- children, jobs, housing availability -- change. +The pattern of population growth in the territories actually undercuts the natural-growth argument. Since 1993, when +Israel signed the Oslo Accords, Israel's West Bank settler population has grown from 116,300 to 289,600. The numbers in +East Jerusalem increased from 152,800 to more than 186,000. This goes far beyond the natural increase of families +already living in the settlements. Inserting the provision of ""natural growth"" in official documents started with the 2001 +Mitchell Report and the 2003 ""road map,"" reflecting recognition that the concept was being abused as a justification for +expanding settlements. The Obama administration is pursuing policies that every administration since 1967 has +articulated -- that settlements jeopardize the possibility of achieving peace and thus settlement activity should stop. This +does not diminish the Palestinians' responsibilities, especially their commitment to stop violence and terrorism and +uproot terrorist infrastructure.

I am hopeful something can be worked out. In the meantime, I wanted to take you up on your offer below and +provide you with a few thoughts on China prior to the upcoming SED on July 27-28. I send you this note from Beijing +(midway through a four-day visit) via Blackberry -- so apologies for any typos. +1. Mounting signs of social instability have intensified China's growth imperatives. Beijing insiders are very concerned +about the Xinjiang uprising; Hu Jintao's pre-G-8 exit validates those concerns. Coming on the heels of last year's +problems in Tibet, social instability can no longer be dismissed as an isolated occurrence. In both cases, my sources claim +growth shortfalls have exacerbated ethnic disturbances. China's recent fiscal stimulus -- especially infrastructure +initiatives in the West -- attempts to address this. Growth has long been modern China's antidote to the risks of social +instability. +2. A massive external demand shock dilutes the growth antidote that China needs to contain social instability. In fact, +the global recession adds a new risk factor to China's social instability equation. The government has confirmed reports +of over 20 million layoffs of migrant workers in export-intensive Guangdong Province -- a direct outgrowth of the +collapse of Chinese exports over the past year (from growth of +25% in mid-2008 to a contraction of -25% in May 2009). +Driven by a record capitulation of the American consumer -- real US consumption down by -1.8% over the past four +quarters (a 58-year record plunge) -- China's biggest source of end-market export demand has been hit with an +extraordinary shock. To the extent there is more to come on this count -- and that remains my best guess, although with +a less dramatic US consumption adjustment than we saw over the past year -- external demand pressures will continue +to undermine China's growth imperatives and feed heightened concerns over social instability. +3. China's stimulus package is a ""quick fix"" that can only exacerbate its already worrisome structural imbalances. The +focus of the stimulus is on its two most unbalanced sectors -- fixed investment and exports, which collectively account +for about 80% of Chinese GDP. Fully 72% of the RMB4 trillion fiscal initiative announced last November goes to +infrastructure. And there are aggressive incentives directed at exporters (i.e., tax rebates, ""buy China"" procurement +incentives, SME credit support, etc.). Moreover, there has been a huge push of State-directed bank lending -- the full- +year 2009 lending target was hit in mid-April! This latter initiative underscores the risks of deteriorating loan quality and +associated banking problems down the road. Meanwhile, despite public claims to the contrary, very little has been done +to stimulate the one sector in China that needs it the most -- internal private consumption. Social safety net efforts are +still puny -- the recent healthcare plan translates into US$30 per person for three years and the National Social Security +Fund only has enough assets to provide about $90 of lifetime social security benefits per worker! This forces fear-driven +-- or precautionary -- saving that, in turn, inhibits the consumer-led impetus a Chinese rebalancing urgently needs. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758986 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05758986 Date: 06/30/2015 +4. All this points to an asymmetrical global rebalancing -- a very worrisome prognosis for a post-crisis world. Despite all if +our problems, the US is actually tempering its greatest macro imbalance -- excess consumption. At the same time, China +is unfortunately upping the ante on its two most unbalanced sectors -- investment and exports. Sadly, this could set up a +still unbalanced global economy for another serious accident in the not-so-distant future. +Sorry to have rambled so much. There is a good deal more to each of the points above -- but wanted to give you the +highlights ahead of the SED. Good luck with that -- and with all else that seems to be going on around the world.

On June 14, less than a month after his meeting with President Obama, Israeli Prime Minister +Benjamin Netanyahu gave one of the most comprehensive, thoughtful and highly personal speeches supporting the +Israeli-Palestinian peace process of any Israeli prime minister in recent years, perhaps ever. +One would have thought his speech would have been big news in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere. Mr. Netanyahu for +the first time clearly stated he would support a two-state solution, albeit with understandable requirements to +guarantee Israel's security, despite leaving a different impression during last month's U.S. visit. +Yet, the reaction of governments and media in the U.S. and Europe was the functional equivalent of a tree falling in the +forest with no one listening. Where it was covered, the writing emphasized the cynical and focused on the half-empty, +rather than the half-full, glass. +So let's take a closer look at what could turn out to be a very significant, game-changing speech. It can be divided, +essentially, into four parts: personal, historic, diplomatic and economic. +The personal aspect of the speech deals with the issue of peace. At one point, Mr. Netanyahu spoke directly to the +Palestinian people: ""We want to live with you in peace, as good neighbors. We want our children and your children to +never again experience war: that parents, brothers and sisters will never again know the agony of losing loved ones in +battle; that our children will be able to dream of a better future and realize that dream; and that together we will invest +our energies in plowshares and pruning hooks, not swords and spears."" +And then he reminded Palestinians that for him and his family, peace and war are quite personal: ""I know the face of +war. 1 have experienced battle. I lost close friends. I lost a brother. I have seen the pain of bereaved families. I do not +want war. No one in Israel wants war."" +Mr. Netanyahu also spent time in his speech on history, but not to relitigate the ancient argument over who lived in +Palestine first or for the longest time. Rather, Mr. Netanyahu explained that the ""root of the conflict"" has been based on +a fundamental misstatement of undeniable historical facts. +Palestinians have been taught that Israel was founded largely by alien foreigners, foisted on the native Palestinians by +Europeans feeling guilty over the Holocaust. That misstatement has been the central rationale for Arab and Palestinian +unwillingness to publicly recognize Israel as a Jewish state. +In fact, he points out, ""the attacks against us began in the 1920s,"" 20 years before the Holocaust. And the undeniable +historical fact is that ""the Jewish people and the land of Israel go back over 3,500 years"" - when Abraham, Isaac and +Jacob, forefathers of all Jews; David and Solomon, ancient Israel's two greatest kings; and Isaiah and Jeremiah, two of +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759019 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759019 Date: 06/30/2015 +the Jewish religion's greatest spiritual prophets, all lived in what was then Judea and Samaria, which today is called the +West Bank. +""The right of the Jewish people to a state in the land of Israel does not derive from the cascade of catastrophes that +befell our people,"" the prime minister said. ""There are those who say that if the Holocaust had not occurred, the state of +Israel would never have been established. But I say if the state of Israel would have been established earlier, it is the +Holocaust that would not have occurred."" +Third, the prime minister addressed the two simple requirements for peace between Israel and the Palestinians: +recognition and security. +As to the first, he put it quite simply: ""A fundamental prerequisite for ending the conflict is a public, binding and +unequivocal Palestinian recognition of Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people."" +As to the security, it is also quite simple: Palestine must be demilitarized, as guaranteed by the international community, +with open skies, no military alliances with hostile powers, and ""effective security measures to prevent weapons +smuggling into the territory - real monitoring, and not what occurs in Gaza today."" +Once these two issues of recognition and security for Israel have been guaranteed, the rest of the difficult issues seem +to come much easier: no more new settlements, with some wiggle room for the natural growth of current settlements +caused by families growing; equitable treatment and assistance in placing refugees in land and homes outside of Israel +(to preserve the essence of historic Israel as a Jewish state). +And on the always controversial issue of Jerusalem, Mr. Netanyahu was deftly ambiguous: ""Jerusalem, the capital of +Israel, must remain undivided, with continued religious freedom for all faiths."" That does not seem to exclude +Palestinian de facto control over certain parts of Jerusalem and certainly over their holy places. +Finally, the prime minister expressed a clear and concrete vision of economic prosperity for Palestinians in partnership +with Israel. Indeed, he stated that such economic prosperity can come even before a final peace agreement is reached. +""An economic peace is not a substitute for a political peace but an important element in achieving it. Together we can +undertake projects that overcome the scarcities of our region, like water desalination, or maximize its advantages, like +developing solar energy, and exploiting our geographic location by laying gas and petroleum lines and establishing +transportation links between Asia, Africa and Europe.... +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759019 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759019 Date: 06/30/2015 +""Together we can develop industrial areas that will generate thousands of jobs and develop tourist sites that will attract +millions of visitors eager to walk in the footsteps of history - in Nazareth and in Bethlehem, around the walls of Jericho +and the walls of Jerusalem, on the banks of the Sea of Galilee, and the baptismal site on the banks of the Jordan."" +Who cannot be moved by these words? Perhaps Mr. Netanyahu has it right - a new sequencing of the peace process: +First, economic partnership and prosperity between Israelis and Palestinians; and then peace, not the other way around. +It could not have been by accident that Mr. Netanyahu chose to deliver his remarkable speech at the Begin-Sadat Center +at Bar-Ilan University. It was slightly more than 30 years ago, on March 26, 1979, that Prime Minister Menachem Begin, +as the leader of the right-wing Likud or ""Consolidation"" Party, joined with Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and signed a +historic peace agreement between Israel and Egypt. +Now another man of the right, another Likud prime minister some three decades later, seems poised to make the lasting +peace between Israel and Palestinians that has so long eluded his predecessors. +One wonders whether Mr. Netanyahu might also be thinking: If Richard Nixon could go to China because of a base on +the right that trusted him, then I can bring peace and prosperity between Israelis and Palestinians. +Let's hope - and pray - that he is right. +Lanny J.

I will send a few further thoughts. +At the conclusion of yesterday's meeting, the Palau delegation caucused to discuss its reaction to the response of the +United States delegation to the proposals that it made in June in Washington D.C., and expanded upon in subsequent +communications. +While the Palau delegation has agreed to respond to certain additional questions raised by the United States delegation +on specific elements of the Palau proposal, and further has agreed to participate in certain working groups on specific +issues, the Palau delegation was deeply disappointed with the response of the United States delegation. The United +States delegation did not seriously respond, as required by the Compact, to the operational requirements of the +Government of Palau or to Palau's comprehensive and considered plans to achieve economic advancement and self- +sufficiency. +In light of the foregoing, the Palau delegation has determined that it must now return to Palau to discuss with President +Toribiong the next steps that Palau needs to take regarding the Compact.

The session would explore the steps for the peace and political process in NI and obviously a +session could have wider application into say the Middle East peace and political process. +To take this forward it would be helpful to explore this with President Clinton and State, and following their expression +of interest/approval, I would take this forward with the British and Irish Prime Ministers. +Let me know your thoughts. +Best +Shaun +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759138 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +665,C05759139,FYI...FW: SECRETARY CLINTON MUST FOCUS ON CAUSE OF CONGO CONFLICT,muscatinel@state.gov,H,80,2009-08-10T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05759139/C05759139.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05759139,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Pis print. +H +Monday, August 10, 2009 5:07 PM +'muscatinel@state.gov' +Fw: FYI....

In Congo, she came away +deeply shaken from a meeting with rape victims. Kenya's prime minister said Africa didn't need lectures from the West +about democracy, but Africa got one anyway. +At home, the U.S. secretary of state's visit may have been overshadowed by the aftermath of her husband's mission to +North Korea to bring home two imprisoned U.S. journalists. But on her seven-nation Africa tour, ending Friday with a +stopover in the West African island republic of Cape Verde, she made one splash after another. +Coupled with Barack Obama's visit last month, the two trips to Africa were the earliest into an administration by any +secretary of state or president, underlining Washington's pledges to pay more attention to the continent. +In the U.S., the headline-making moment of the trip was her testy response to a question about Bill Clinton. But in +Africa, it quickly became a footnote. What people wanted to hear was support for democracy, clean government and +ending its many civil wars. +Clinton's ambitious itinerary resembled those of China's foreign minister, who makes extensive annual tours of his +country's allies on the continent. But where China tends to sidestep the issues of corruption democracy, Clinton +confronted them head-on. +Kenyan Prime Minister Raila Odinga, speaking hours before Clinton arrived, said Africa did not need to be lectured about +democracy. After they met, she did just that. ""The absence of strong and effective democratic institutions has permitted +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759145 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759145 Date: 06/30/2015 +ongoing corruption, impunity, politically motivated violence and a lack of respect for a rule of law,"" Clinton said. ""These +conditions ... are continuing to hold Kenya back."" +Odinga switched to a more conciliatory tone, saying African countries could learn from Clinton's example when she +conceded defeat to Obama during the U.S. presidential primaries. +""That is a lesson Africa needs to learn seriously,"" he said. ""In Africa, in many countries, elections are never won, they are +only rigged. The losers never accept that they lost. If we do this, we will be able to develop democracy truly in the +African continent."" +In Angola, she told Foreign Minister Assuncao Afonso dos Anjos that his country needed to write a new constitution, +prosecute human rights crimes and hold a proper presidential election. +""So, Mr. Minister, we have our work cut out for us,"" she said. +And in Nigeria, Africa's biggest oil producer, she said ""the disconnect between Nigeria's wealth and its poverty is a +failure of governance at the federal, state and local level."" +To Africa's reformers, often an embattled minority, these were heartening words. +Emma Ezeazu, who campaigns for free and fair elections in his native Nigeria, said Clinton's visit showed that U.S. +officials ""are becoming more pro-active in their relationship with Nigeria, in particular on the subject of governance and +democracy. They are paying more attention."" +Tiseke Kasambala, a Johannesburg-based researcher for Human Rights Watch, commended her grasp of human rights +abuses in Africa — not just the headline-makers, like Zimbabwe and Congo, but the lesser publicized offenders such as +Angola. +In Goma, a Congo town in a region ravaged by gang rapes amid continuing fighting between army and rebels, Clinton +announced $17 million in American aid to help the victims. +She toured a squalid camp of 18,000 refugees and heard one of them tell her, ""We really want to return home, that's +why we are asking America to help stop the fighting."" +""That's why I'm here,"" Clinton replied. ""I want you to be able to go home."" +In Cape Town, South Africa, big, joyous crowds turned out for her at a housing project. In Liberia, founded in 1847 by +freed American slaves, rain-drenched crowds waved U.S. and Liberian flags at Clinton's motorcade. +The crowds in Nigeria and Angola were fewer, but community and religious leaders seemed excited just to be with +Clinton and be heard by her. +Nancy Kachingwe, a Malawian with the development group ActionAid, applauded Clinton's ""very strong emphasis +around women's rights."" +Some of former President George W. Bush's Africa initiatives, particularly on AIDS, have been widely praised in Africa. +But there were also sharp differences over world trade, global warming, and over the Bush administration's anti- +terrorism strategy. +Washington wants to buy Africa's oil and gain access to its markets, and fears instability in places like Somalia could fuel +anti-U.S. terrorism. Clinton won points by stressing that as the U.S. pursues its interests, it sees the virtue of ""working +with and listening to our friends and allies, and creating not a multipolar world, but a multi-partner world."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759145 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759145 Date: 06/30/2015 +Kachingwe said what matters now is the follow-up. +""There will be a positive impact"" from Clinton's trip, she said.

In exchange, she said, African leaders must deliver democracy and good government. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759228 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759228 Date: 06/30/2015 +Mrs. Clinton vowed to stay on top of Africa, even after she gets back to Washington, closely monitoring the issues she +addressed on her tour. She also pointed to Cape Verde, a set of palm-studded islands best known for their beaches and +enormous tourist hotels, as an example of what good leadership can do. +""This is possible,"" she said. ""You create not just economic growth but a sense of human dignity and possibility."" +Kenya. South Africa. Angola. Congo. Nigeria. Liberia. And finally Cape Verde. Mrs. Clinton saw with her own eyes some of +Africa's most promising countries - and some of its most troubled ones. In Kenya, she pushed for the government to +prosecute perpetrators of the postelection violence last year. In South Africa, the big issue was Zimbabwe and how the +South African government should do more to help ease the crisis there. +In Angola, the theme was good governing practices and oil, a strategic concern of the United States given the many +inroads China has made there and elsewhere in Africa in its hunger for natural resources. In Congo, Mrs. Clinton was +passionate about the need to end the nation's rape epidemic. +""The secretary's visit to the heart of the world's deadliest war zone in eastern Congo was a potential game-changer for +that conflict,"" said John Prendergast, a founder of the Washington-based Enough project. ""Her commitment to +addressing root causes such as the conflict minerals that power our electronics industry was a refreshing contrast to the +usual disaster sympathy tourism of visiting dignitaries."" +""Now,"" he added, ""comes the hard part: making good on the promises and living up to the high expectations +engendered by her visit."" +In Nigeria, Mrs. Clinton pressed for electoral changes. In Liberia, she praised the country's president, Ellen Johnson +Sirleaf, the only woman in Africa to be elected head of state. +The Liberian visit had a special warmth, almost like a meeting of long-lost cousins. Liberia was founded in the 19th +century by freed American slaves, and the country's flag, the people's names and even the police uniforms with plastic- +brimmed hats were all reminiscent of the American versions. Mrs. Clinton received possibly her most exuberant +welcome there, and a Liberian man with a long wooden horn followed her around most of the visit, blowing out loud +funny noises whenever she said something striking. +""I love that - the horn - I want to take that guy with me wherever I go,"" she said. +In Cape Verde, Mrs. Clinton seemed to have few bones to pick. For once, she said, she had a cheat sheet on a country +that included a list of far more positives than negatives. The country has fewer than 500,000 people and has escaped the +turmoil that has engulfed so much of Africa. The all-inclusive, poolside buffet resorts here feel like something found in +Canci.ln or the Bahamas. +Mrs. Clinton called Cape Verde ""a model of democracy and economic progress in Africa."" +On Friday, just as she had at every stop, she started her speech by saying, ""I bring you greetings from President Obama."" +She called him a ""son of Africa"" and said that under the Obama administration, the United States was determined to +help Africa reach its promise. +#4# +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759228 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +673,C05759247,AFRICA BUREAU,ValmoroLJ@state.gov,H,80,2009-08-15T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05759247/C05759247.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Africa Bureau,'ValmoroU@state.gov'; Huma Abedin,H ,,"Saturday, August 15, 2009 9:08 PM",F-2014-20439,C05759247,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,I should visit to thank them Mon or Tues.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759247 Date: 06/30/2015 +[RELEASE IN FULL +From: H +Sent: Saturday, August 15, 2009 9:08 PM +To: 'ValmoroU@state.gov'; Huma Abedin +Subject: Africa Bureau +I should visit to thank them Mon or Tues. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759247 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +674,C05759256,WEBB,abedinh@state.gov,H,80,2009-08-16T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05759256/C05759256.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Webb,'abedinh@state.gov',H ,,"Sunday, August 16, 2009 11:25 AM",F-2014-20439,C05759256,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"I'm talking w Jones next.

Llorens, SENT YESTERDAY MORNING. +AIL: I received a call from Arias late last night. He seemed to be recovering well from the flu but was at his home +resting. I briefed him on how I saw the situation in Honduras. I stressed the importance of a successful visit by the OAS +FMs. I agreed M's recent public comments again suggesting that Insulza was not welcomed were unhelpful. I noted that +somewhat better was the statement made by the Corrales delegation yesterday at a press conference in Toncontin +Airport upon returning from DC reaffirming that Insulza was expected to be with the delegation. I told Arias the +importance of arranging a substantive schedule for the FMs w regime, civil society, business, and religious leaders as +well as pro-Zelaya social sector supporters. I also stressed the importance of giving these folks a fair hearing but also +that it was critical that the FMs explain the international community's expectations and strong hope that both sides +return quickly to San Jose and reach and sign a final agreement. +Arias concurred that that was also his expectation. He expressed concern that the regime may be seeking to stall and +delay. He said the regime delegation did not seemed fully committed to reaching a deal and seemed focused on +tinkering with the political amnesty question. Arias believes that the core regime supporters in the business community +were still strongly resisting an agreement. He suggested that the US needed to increase the pressure on these folks and +consider taking away their visas and possibly freeze their bank accounts. I said I would pass on his suggestion. I said we +were reaching out to people in Honduras and urging the importance of a succesful FMs meeting as a prelude to a final +agreement. I said I would also speak to Corrales and get him focused on having the regime prepared for the FMs with +creative and concrete ways of bolstering the enforcement aspects of a final deal. Arias thanked our support and we +agreed to speak again over the weekend.

Eight years ago this morning, our nation was attacked by terrorist extremists +motivated by hatred and bent on destruction. It is always appropriate to remember the shock of that day, the innocent +lives lost, and the efforts our nation has made since that day to ensure that Afghanistan, the nation that hosted those +terrorists, cannot again become a safe haven for terrorists seeking to attack us. But today is an especially appropriate +occasion to take stock of those efforts, and consider how best to continue them. +I recently returned from a trip to Afghanistan, where I was joined by my colleagues Senators Jack Reed and Ted +Kaufman. The situation in Afghanistan is serious. Security has deteriorated. But if we take the right steps, we can ensure +that Afghanistan does not revert to a Taliban-friendly government that could once again provide a safe haven for al +Qaeda to terrorize us and the world. +The Obama administration's new strategy, focusing on securing the Afghan population's safety and partnering with the +Afghan security forces in that effort, is an important start at reversing the situation in Afghanistan. The change in +strategy has led our forces, in the words of General McChrystal's Counterinsurgency Guidance, to ""live, eat and train +together [with the Afghan security forces], plan and operate together, depend on one another, and hold each other +accountable....and treat them as equal partners in success."" The Guidance goes on to say that the success of the Afghan +security forces ""is our goal."" +• +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759468 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759468 Date: 06/30/2015 +To achieve that goal we should increase and accelerate our efforts to support the Afghan security forces in their efforts +to become self-sufficient in delivering security to their nation — before we consider whether to increase U.S. combat +forces above the levels already planned for the next few months. These steps include increasing the size of the Afghan +Army and police much faster than presently planned; providing more trainers for the Afghan Army and police than +presently planned; providing them more equipment than presently planned; and working to separate local Taliban +fighters from their leaders and attract them to the side of the government as we did in Iraq. +While the security situation in Afghanistan has worsened, we still have important advantages there. The Afghan people +hate the Taliban. Public opinion polls show support for the Taliban at about 5%. In addition, the Afghan army is highly +motivated and its troops are proven fighters. +Despite those advantages, we face significant challenges. General McChrystal believes, and I agree, that we need to +regain the initiative and create a momentum towards success. General McChrystal worries, and rightly so, about the +perception that we have lost that initiative, and the impact of that perception on the Afghan people, their government, +al Qaeda and the Taliban. By contrast, if we can dispel that perception, we have a chance to convince local and lower- +level Taliban fighters to lay down their arms and rejoin Afghan society. +I believe the most effective way to retake the initiative in Afghanistan is with a series of steps to ensure that +Afghanistan's army and police have the manpower, equipment and support to secure their own nation. +First, we should increase troop levels for the Afghan army and police faster than currently planned. There are +approximately 90,000 troops in the Afghan army now, and that number is scheduled to go up to 134,000 by October of +2010. The Afghan police are scheduled to reach a level of 82,000 by the same time. For a long time, many of us have +urged the establishment of a goal of 240,000 Afghan troops and 160,000 Afghan police by 2013. The Afghan Minister of +Defense has strongly supported those numbers. It now appears that our government and the Afghan government are +prepared to accept those goals. But the need for additional Afghan forces is urgent. I believe it both possible and +essential to advance those goals by a year, to 2012. +Our own military in Afghariistan has repeatedly pointed to a need for more Afghan forces. In one sector of Helmand +province we visited last week, our Marines outnumbered Afghan soldiers by 5 to one. A Marine Company commander in +Helmand province told the New York Times in July that a lack of Afghan troops ""is absolutely our Achilles heel."" +What do we need to do to increase the size of the Afghan army and police? According to Afghan Defense Minister +Wardak, there is no lack of Afghan manpower; we've been assured it is available. +But we will need significantly more trainers. We asked General Formica, who is in charge of the American effort to train +Afghan security forces, whether such an increase is possible. He indicated he would make an assessment of what would +be necessary in order to meet the earlier timetable. In the meantime, we should also press our NATO allies with much +greater forcefulness to provide more trainers. If our NATO allies are not going to come through with the combat forces +they have pledged, at least they could provide additional trainers. +Larger Afghan security forces will also require more mid-level Afghan officers. In addition to supporting efforts to +graduate more Afghan officers from army academies, we should consider the recommendation of Defense Minister +Wardak that previous mid-level officers who fought the war against the Soviets return to service on an interim basis. +Minister Wardak emphasized that those men are well qualified and well motivated, and while they may not be trained in +the most current tactics, they nonetheless could temporarily meet the need of the enlarged army while the new group +of officers is trained. A larger Afghan force will need supporting infrastructure, such a barracks. While the available +infrastructure may not be the most modern, it is adequate and exists in sufficient amounts. +Larger Afghan security forces will require additional equipment. There must be a major effort to transfer a significant +amount of the equipment that is coming out of Iraq to the Afghan army and police. Such a significant commitment to +equip the Afghan security forces would also help demonstrate U.S. determination to take the initiative and create +momentum in the right direction. There is an enormous amount of equipment coming out of Iraq; our military is calling +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759468 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759468 Date: 06/30/2015 +it one of the greatest transfers of military goods in the world's history. A significant part of it could be transferred to the +Afghan forces, increasing their capability without weakening our own readiness. And yet there does not seem to be that +kind of a crash effort in place to do that. We need to obtain on an urgent basis a list of the basic equipment needs of the +Afghan forces and a list of how those needs could be met in a major program to transfer equipment leaving Iraq. +Rapidly expanding Afghanistan's military and police forces would address one of the major problems and risks we now +face there. General McChrystal told us he worries that waiting until 2013 for a larger Afghan force creates a gap in +capabilities that brings significant risk of failure. But by accelerating the training and equipping of Afghan forces by a +year, we address his concern. Depending on additional capability from Afghan, rather than U.S., forces, also addresses a +major problem of public perception in Afghanistan. The larger our own military footprint there, the more our enemies +can seek to drive a wedge between us and the Afghan population, spreading the falsehood that we seek to dominate a +Muslim nation. +Finally, we should make a concerted effort to separate the local Taliban from their leaders. In Iraq, large numbers of +young Iraqis who had been attacking us switched over to our side and became.the ""Sons of Iraq."" They were drawn in +part by the promise of jobs and amnesty for past attacks, and in part by the recognition that the status quo was creating +horrific violence in their own communities. In their own interests and the interests of their nation, they switched sides +and became a positive force. +That same prospect exists in Afghanistan. Afghan leaders and our military say that local Taliban fighters are motivated +largely by the need for a job or loyalty to the local leader who pays them and not by ideology or religious zeal. They +believe an effort to attract these fighters to the government's side could succeed, if they are offered security for +themselves and their families, and if there is no penalty for previous activity against us. +General McChrystal himself has emphasized the potential of such re-integration to accomplish the same result as was +achieved in Iraq. Here is what General McChrystal said on July 28th: +""Most of the fighters we see in Afghanistan are Afghans, some with foreign cadre with them. But most we don't see are +deeply ideological or even politically motivated; most are operating for pay; some are under a commander's charismatic +leadership; some are frustrated with local leaders. So I believe there is significant potential to go after what I would call +mid- and low-level Taliban fighters and leaders and offer them re-integration into Afghanistan under the constitution."" +But this ""game changing"" possibility was apparently not factored into General McChrystal's assessment. There is no plan +yet to put in place a Sons of Iraq approach in Afghanistan. It is urgent that we lay out the steps that need to be taken to +involve local and national Afghan leaders in that effort. They alone can accomplish this crucial job, but first we and our +Afghan allies must draft such a plan on an urgent basis. And the potential positive impact of such a plan should be taken +into account as we consider the need for any additional U.S. military resources. +Afghanistan's people are grateful for our aid, but also eager to assume responsibility for their future. In a tiny village in +Helmand Province, we were invited to meet with the village elders at their council meeting, their shura. One hundred or +so men sat on the floor and chatted with us about their future and their country's future. When asked how long the +United States should stay, one elder said: ""Until the moment that you make our security forces self-sufficient. Then you +will be welcome to visit us, not as soldiers but as guests."" +Helping Afghanistan achieve self-sufficiency in their security is everybody's goal. On that there is little difference of +opinion, in Afghanistan's village councils or in the corridors of this Capitol. +Can we help Afghanistan reach self-sufficiency in security fast enough? Can we get there in a way that regains the +initiative and creates the momentum we need? Can we encourage those lower level Taliban to abandon an insurgency +headed by terrorists whose fanaticism they don't share? +I believe we can, by supporting a far more rapid growth in the Afghan Army and police; by providing more trainers more +quickly; by a rapid infusion to Afghan units of equipment no longer needed in Iraq; and by rapidly adopting a plan for the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759468 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759468 Date: 06/30/2015 +re-integration of lower level Taliban fighters into Afghan society. In other words, we need a surge of Afghan security +forces. +Our support of their surge will show our commitment to the success of a mission that is clearly in our national security +interest, without creating a bigger U.S. military footprint that provides propaganda fodder for the Taliban. +I believe that taking those steps on an urgent basis, While completing the previously planned and announced increase in +U.S. combat forces, provides the best chance of success for our mission: preventing Afghanistan from again being run by +a Taliban government which harbors and supports Al-Qaeda, whose goal is to inflict additional catastrophic attacks on +the United States and the world.

How our society deals with those +confronting death is understandably controversial. Unfortunately, the debate has degenerated into a cacophony of +demagoguery and distortion, including invocations of Hitler and fear-mongering about ""death panels."" As a result of +these attacks, a number of senators who are key to determining what bill will emerge from Congress have abandoned +support for end-of-life counseling. +Our family's experience this year provided a vivid perspective on the value of that service and the misguidedness of the +campaign against it. Brooke Shearer -- wife, mother and grandmother -- had been fighting cancer +for more than a year. She had undergone major surgery, numerous scans and biopsies, and two debilitating courses of +chemotherapy. Her doctors were among the best in their fields. Their expertise did not, however, extend to the fine +points of, and latest advances in, pain management. +Brooke was determined to maintain the highest possible quality of her own life and that of her family for whatever time +we had together. With that goal in mind, she sought advice and treatment from palliative-care specialists at Washington +Home and Community Hospices. Their ingenuity and skill in adjusting her medications significantly alleviated her +discomfort in her final months. Working closely with her primary physicians, the hospice staff helped Brooke anticipate +the likely course of her disease in a way that allowed her to make decisions and exercise a degree of control over both +her own condition and our family's adjustment to it. +When her oncologist concluded that chemotherapy was not working, Brooke put herself fully into the hands of +Washington Home as an outpatient. Regular house calls by hospice doctors, nurses and social workers enabled her to +stay active on professional projects, spend time with friends and family, and end her life at home, which was a +considerable comfort to her and to us. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759543 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759543 Date: 06/30/2015 +These, not issues of cost, were the principal considerations for our family. However, controlling the cost of health care -- +especially in the last year of life -- is an important part of the current national debate. Therefore it is worth noting that +Brooke's treatment in the last stages of her illness was far less expensive than it had been in the previous year. +It has often been said that dying can be a full-time job. That was emphatically not the case with Brooke. Until her final +days, she concentrated on living -- a choice that end-of-life counseling helped make possible. Hospice care more than +meets the standard of the Hippocratic oath: It not only does no harm -- it does good; it is not about hastening death but +enhancing life. If counseling about hospice services and palliative care is a beneficiary of health care reform, many +Americans will be as well. +Devin Talbott, along with his brother Adrian, is co-founder of GenerationEngage . +Strobe Talbott is president of the Brookings Institution . +Strobe Talbott +President, The Brookings Institution +1775 Massachusetts Avenue NW, +Washington, DC 20036 +202.797.6200 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759543 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +715,C05759548,CALL LIST,JilotyLC@state.gov,H,80,2009-09-07T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05759548/C05759548.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Call list,'JilotyLC@state.gov',H ,Huma Abedin,"Monday, September 7, 2009 12:28 AM",F-2014-20439,C05759548,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Pls revise as follows-- +Add +Mayor Tom Menino +Judith Hope","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759548 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: H +Sent: Monday, September 7, 2009 12:28 AM +To: 'JilotyLC@state.gov' +Cc: Huma Abedin +Subject: Call list +Pls revise as follows-- +Add +Mayor Tom Menino +Judith Hope +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759548 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +716,C05759551,SCHEDULE,ValmoroLJ@state.gov,H,80,2009-09-07T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05759551/C05759551.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Schedule,'ValmoroU@state.gov'; Huma Abedin,H ,,"Monday, September 7, 2009 8:04 AM",F-2014-20439,C05759551,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"For Tuesday, when will I see Daalder and Hill? +I'm not sure I have the time to go back to NY for Cronkite funeral altho I would still like to. +I need more time w Holbrooke on Thursday so see if he can be moved to 12:45 or another time that works like 8am. +I want to meet w people Thursday night so pls don't schedule anything after Capricia's event. +On Friday, can Kessler be moved to next week? +Rahm told me there may be a small mtg w the POTUS on Sunday morning so I may need to take plane back either late +Sat night or early Sun am.

While the FY10 Bill had broad bipartisan support prior to markup, it now includes a controversial Lautenberg +amendment that would reverse the Mexico City policy statutorily. With Lautenberg's amendment in the Bill, procedural +hurdles are almost certain to lengthen and slow down floor action. +It is possible that an agreement could be reached to bring up the Bill and structure votes so that the Republicans could +offer amendments including one to strike Lautenberg's language. +Should you agree to ask the Secretary to make such a call I would imagine she would want to get views from Jack Lew, +Pat Kennedy, Rich Greene, and Rich Verma, first. +Here are some points to consider for such a possible call: +Timely enactment of the FY 10 State/Foreign Ops appropriation is critical to national security. +• Operating under a Continuing Resolution for any extended period of time will negatively impact both State +operations and foreign assistance programs. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759552 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759552 Date: 06/30/2015 +• For example, the funds available to support State operations in Iraq are estimated to last only through the first +quarter of FY 2010.

In 2000, USAID spent $0 on grants[1] and $478.6 million on +contracts. By 2008, those figures had climbed to $5.2 billion and $3.2 billion, respectively (source: USAspending.gov[2]). +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759571 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759571 Date: 06/30/2015 +Contracting is still perceived as something peripheral to policy itself, but when contracting and grants comprise 75 +percent of State's total budget, as they did in 2008, that is clearly no longer the case. +The privatization trend predates the Bush Administration and is in part an appropriate response to globalization's +possibilities and more generally the changing nature of American power. But during the last eight years, laissez-faire +outsourcing to execute two ambitious wars carried the day, and oversight and management were often outsourced as +well as implementation. Today, the State Department and especially USAID are dependent on contractors, and +outsourcing, in turn, has remade the work environment for federal employees. Negative consequences are a private +sector that has been granted power without responsibility, a diminished and overtaxed DSS, a demoralized USAID, and +looming catastrophe in Iraq and Afghanistan, where reconstruction money first flowed into everyone's pockets except +those of ordinary citizens. +What is to be done? Smart-sourcing, not in-sourcing +To align our practices with our interests, the centrality of outsourcing to the contemporary business of government must +be properly acknowledged. America's allies today include a range of non-governmental actors, both for-profit and non- +profit, who are recipients of taxpayer dollars. While policy was once something that government devised (the ""what"") +and contractors executed (the ""how""), that is no longer the case in the information age. Especially in the development +realm, success or failure today turns on the how of US strategy, which effectively places a web of non-governmental +personnel in key policy-making positions. Since both development and democracy demand the engagement and +employment of local populations, turning the clock back and bringing whatever possible back in house would therefore +be a cure worse than the disease. We don't need a new prescription for our glasses; we need a new eye chart. +A smart-sourcing approach defines the ""how"" of policy as a strategic issue and proceeds on two fronts simultaneously. +First, smart-sourcing means building capacity for managing what OMB's July guidelines on contracting call the multi- +sector workforce. State Department contracting, programming, and information technology functions must be +redefined as collaborative ventures, so that State might more effectively orchestrate mission-oriented networks across +the public-private divide. Second, smart-sourcing involves identifying tasks that should never have been outsourced and +bringing those back in-house. It may be easiest to in-source according to political expediency, but that temptation must +be avoided. Clear guidelines for the limits of outsourcing must be delineated so that strategic rather than ad hoc choices +can be made. Both reforms have the virtue of directly advancing objectives outlined in OMB Director Peter Orszag's +July memoranda. +More specifically, a State Department committed to smart-sourcing should: +Support and promote OMB efforts to improve contracts and grants data quality, as well as the further +development of USA spending.gov to include subcontracts and subgrants. Transparency and accountability are the +critical values in a smart-sourcing orientation, and our anti-corruption efforts abroad will have enhanced credibility +when we are perceived to be upholding the same values at home. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759571 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759571 Date: 06/30/2015 +Restructure USAID so that it has the capacity to manage its contracts as well as write checks. Capacity involves +more than FTE counts. State needs to recruit, train, and retain a workforce of twenty-first century network managers +who can ensure quality work at all stages of a given project. +Rebuild DSS so that State can phase out reliance on armed contractors in war zones. Our current practices blur the +line between the legitimate and illegitimate use of force, which is just what terrorists want. +Craft contracts that employ the foreigners we are trying to help. Sustainable development follows from the +bottom-up engagement of local populations, not top-down advice from US experts. A sense of local ownership is often +best fostered by foreign nationals written into contracts and grants rather than being directly employed by the USG. +Consider the lessons of the MCC and the expanded contributions of the NGO community in charting USAID's +future. Both devolve decision-making to the local level and involve a less prominent USG footprint. If organizations like +the Clinton Global Initiative and the Gates Foundation advance American interests more effectively than traditional +direct government intervention, overseas direct investment may be a dated policy instrument. +Follow the money and identify DOD reconstruction contracts that rightfully belonged in State's domain to bolster +the already compelling argument for greater civilian resources. There can be no smart power without smart-sourcing. +Bottom line: The information revolution has rendered big government vs. small government debates beside the point. +To paraphrase President Obama's inaugural address, we don't need a big State Department or a small State Department +but a State Department that works. A smart-sourcing approach to reform will strengthen the operational link between +policy and resources, enabling State to exploit all the networks at its disposal in ways that advance the interests of the +United States. Nothing could be more strategic. +[1] USAID's problematic accounting practices are currently on full public display at USAspending.gov. No data on grants +is provided for FY2000-2006. +[2] Data quality appears extremely variable, especially for USAID, but for general trends, it can suffice. I use 2008 +numbers for the comparison, since 2009 aggregate numbers are still a moving target. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759571 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +726,C05759572,,JilotyLC@state.gov,H,80,2009-09-07T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05759572/C05759572.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re,'JilotyLC@state.gov',H ,,"Monday, September 7, 2009 4:22 PM",F-2014-20439,C05759572,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Thx.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759572 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: H +Sent: Monday, September 7, 2009 4:22 PM +To: 'JilotyLC@state.gov' +Subject: Re +Thx. +Original Message +From: Jiloty, Lauren C +To: H +Sent: Mon Sep 07 16:12:31 2009 +Subject: Re +III call the senate photographers office first thing in the morning to ask about getting another copy.

With an increase from +#12 last year to #5 this year, BusinessWeek ranked the Department in the Top 20 for the fourth consecutive year. The +ranking is based on a three-part methodology that includes combined survey data from careers services directors, +undergraduate students, and employers. For further information, please visit +http://www.businessweek.com/magazine/toc/09_37/B4146career.htm?chan=magazine+channel_top+stories + +Burns, +We missed our calling. +FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE +DELOITTE & TOUCHE TOPS BUSINESSWEEK'S ANNUAL LIST OF +""BEST PLACES TO LAUNCH A CAREER"" +New York, New York, September 3, 2009— The big four accounting firms once again dominate BusinessWeek's +fourth annual ranking of the ""Best Places to Launch a Career."" Deloitte & Touche jumped to the No.1 spot, unseating +Ernst & Young who ranked No.2. PricewaterhouseCoopers and KPMG took the third and fourth spot, respectively. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759596 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759596 Date: 06/30/2015 +With rich benefits, extensive training programs, and a combined recruiting effort that makes more than 10,000 +hires even in a tough year, the Big Four are hard to beat, and Deloitte is harder than most. With substantially higher +pay-18% of Deloitte's entry-level hires this year will earn north of $65,000—plus the industry's biggest signing bonuses +and most generous time-off policy, it's no wonder Deloitte is a favorite of students and career services directors. It +doesn't hurt that Deloitte's entry-level hiring took the smallest hit this year, down just 1.1% in the first half compared +with double-digit drops for No.2 Ernst & Young and No.4 KPMG. +To compile this ranking, BusinessWeek polled 60 college career services directors across the country; collected +data from a survey of 60,000 U.S. undergrads by Universum USA, a Philadelphia research company; and required +employers to submit statistics on everything from pay and benefits to training programs and retention. The number of +ranked employers is down sharply this year, owing to our decision to raise the bar on eligibility. And the tougher +competition—combined with a handful of new employers and shifts in sentiment among students and career services +directors—resulted in a shakeup in the standings. +Some companies, including No.11 Accenture and No.19 Prudential moved up more than 35 spots, while No.34 +Marriott and No.48 Lockheed Martin were down 28 and 40 spots, respectively. Even the top 10 underwent big changes +this year. Marriott and Lockheed were out, as was Google, which declined to participate. But three new employers +entered the winner's circle. The State Dept. and Teach For America, which places college grads in troubled school +districts, are both in the midst of ramped-up recruiting campaigns, while J.P. Morgan, a unit ofJPMorgan Chase, reaped +a survivor's benefit: It's one of the few big investment banks left standing. +BusinessWeek's ""Best Places to Launch a Career"" ranking is in the September 14, 2009 issue, on newsstands +September 4th.

Jan Schakowsky (D-III.) died Sunday in a snorkeling accident as he vacationed in Mexico with +his family, her office and family said. +Michael McLaughlin, 38, was with Schakowsky and other family members near Tulum, Mexico, at the beginning of a +week long vacation, Schakowsky's husband Robert Creamer said. +McLaughlin was married to Lauren, 35, who is the daughter of Schakowsky's husband and his previous wife Day Piercy, +who lives in New York. +McLaughlin was a filmmaker and editor who lived with his wife in Queens, N.Y. +Creamer said he and other family members were in their hotel near Solinon Bay when another guest with binoculars +told them there appeared to be a problem with McLaughlin, who was snorkeling in the bay about 7 miles north of +Tul urn. +Creamer was the first to reach McLaughlin in a kayak. He said he found his son-in-law face down in the water, and called +out to him but got no response. Creamer said he got closer, turned his son-in-law over and realized he was in trouble. He +administered mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and put a life vest on him, Creamer said. +""I yelled at him and poked at him and got no response, so I turned him over and it was clear he wasn't breathing,"" said +Creamer. +McLaughlin's wife then showed up along with Schakowsky and others in more kayaks to help put McLaughlin on a kayak +in the nearly 7-feet of water. Others also arrived in more kayaks to assist and pulled the craft carrying McLaughlin onto +the beach where they continued to try to revive him unsuccessfully. +McLaughlin was pronounced dead at a local hospital a short time later, Creamer said. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759603 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759603 Date: 06/30/2015 +In a phone interview from Mexico, Creamer said McLaughlin was an experienced snorkeler and diver who liked to +snorkel alone, a coroner's report said he had aspirated in his mask and died of asphyxiation, he said. +McLaughlin was cremated, following his own request, Creamer said. +Creamer described himself as heartbroken and praised his son-in-law and the 7-year marriage to his daughter. The +couple had planned to adopt their first child in September. +""Michael was one of the most loving and creative people I've ever met.... and he and my daughter Lauren had one of +the most loving marriages I have ever seen,"" Creamer said. +In 2005 Schakowsky's daughter-in-law Fiona died of cancer. She had been married to Schakowsky's son Ian. +Born Oct. 26, 1970, in Berkeley, Calif., McLaughlin was the oldest of three children and grew up in ""the shadow of Mount +Tamalpais, in Mann County,"" according to Creamer. +As a young man, McLaughlin was known for his love for the outdoors as his dinner table quips that entertained his +family. As a young adult, he attended Sarah Lawrence College where he studied theater and moved with a friend to New +York City, following college. +His family said McLaughlin never lost his zest for adventure, regularly white water rafting, skydiving, backpacking and +studying Karate. +McLaughlin later moved to San Francisco, where he met his wife Lauren and married her in July 2002. During their +marriage, McLaughlin helped his wife start her own business and she helped him pursue his film career as a filmmaker, +his family said. +During McLaughlin's career he worked in live theater, puppetry and short fiction. His short film ""Shadow Puppets of +Doom"" was shown in film festivals and won the ""Best Screenplay"" award in the Mann County Film Festival, his family +said. At the time of his death he was filming a pilot reality television show. +McLaughlin is survived by his wife, Lauren Creamer McLaughlin, his mother, Rohana, his sister, Halima, and his brother, +Marlin. +Tribune reporter Will Lee contributed. +--Carlos Sadovi +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759603 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +740,C05759604,OUT OF CHANNELS BUT...,JilotyLC@state.gov,H,80,2009-09-10T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05759604/C05759604.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Fw: out of channels but...,'JilotyLC@state.gov',H ,,"Thursday, September 10, 2009 7:58 AM",F-2014-20439,C05759604,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Pls print.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759604 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: H +Sent: Thursday, September 10, 2009 7:58 AM +To: 'JilotyLC@state.gov' +Subject: Fw: out of channels but... +Pls print. +Original Message +From: Brooke Shearer +To: hdr22@clintonemail.com +Subject: out of channels but... +Sent: Apr 13, 2009 9:29 AM +Dear Hillary, +Sorry for busting through ""the system,"" but +Brooke +Brooke Shearer +2812 Calvert St. NW +Washington DC 20008 +tel: 202-462-2002 +fax: 202-332-1214 +cell: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759604 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +741,C05759605,FW:,JilotyLC@state.gov,H,80,2009-09-10T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05759605/C05759605.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Fw:,'JilotyLC@state.gov',H ,,"Thursday, September 10, 2009 7:59 AM",F-2014-20439,C05759605,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Pls print.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759605 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: H +Sent: Thursday, September 10, 2009 7:59 AM +To: 'JilotyLC@state.gov' +Subject: Fw: +Pls print. +Original Message +From: Penn Rhodeen +To: Hillary Clinton +ReplyTo: Penn Rhodeen +Subject: Re: +Sent: Nov 21, 2008 10:31 AM +Penn +--- On Fri, 11/21/08, hr15@att.blackberry.net wrote: +> From: hr15@att.blackberry.net +> Subject: Re: +> To: ""Penn Rhodeen"" +> Date: Friday, November 21, 2008, 8:24 AM Thanks, my friend. +> Original Message +> From: Penn Rhodeen +> To: Hillary Clinton +> ReplyTo: Penn Rhodeen +> Sent: Nov 18, 2008 7:58 PM +> Subject: +> Dear Hillary, +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759605 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759605 Date: 06/30/2015 +> +> Have fun. +> +> Penn +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759605 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +742,C05759606,RE:,verveerms@state.gov,H,80,2009-09-10T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05759606/C05759606.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re:,'verveerms@state.gov',H ,,"Thursday, September 10, 2009 10:41 AM",F-2014-20439,C05759606,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Pis share w Esther and Steinberg.,"This is from B6 +from Egypt +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759606 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: H +Sent: Thursday, September 10, 2009 10:41 AM +To: 'verveerms@state.gov' +Subject: Re: +Pis share w Esther and Steinberg. +Original Message +From: Verveer, Melanne S +To: H +Sent: Thu Sep 10 10:22:51 2009 +Subject: FW: +FYI — what they are saying. +Melanne S.

Will send PIR comments shortly. +To: CDM +Fr: Caitlin +Re: Branch Book +Overview: +There are few surprises in this book. The ""surprises"" that might exist are buried and took a close reading to pick up on— +the two main ones are about the terror clause of WJC's crime bill and why he hadn't disclosed information about +Lewinsky (because he hadn't wanted to become a witness against her). There are a lot of things that have been covered +in My Life and other publications. Quite honestly the book was pretty boring and much more focused on Branch than I +had anticipated. While not as ""and this day, and the next day"" as My Life, it does share many of the same elements that +would engage only a true Clinton fanatic or historian. The fact that there appears to be no index also makes it difficult +for anyone looking for a quick hit to get one. Furthermore, WIC's words are so interlaced with Branch's recollection +through his dictations, that the number of direct WJC quotes was far fewer than I had expected. +HRC was not as much of a player as one might imagine. Her role is largely seen through her interactions with Branch +when he is recording WJC. Her statements were consistent with the past, with the exception of the Gephardt comment, +and didn't grab much attention at all.[1] (Others included HRC's devotion to CVC, thought that there should not be a +special prosecutor and images of her returning from meetings. They were pretty much aligned with her interactions with +Branch.) Surprisingly, or not surprisingly, many of the problems discussed in the book are those, which face the current +Administration—Middle East peace, North Korea, China, etc... +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 +Branch repeatedly injects his feelings on specific subjects and seems to use the book to voice his own opinion of the +Administration and events of the time. He clearly has topics he prefers over others (for example his connection with the +events in Haiti result in a lot of discussion about it), but there are some subjects that are strikingly sparsely discussed +such as Rwanda. Its absence from long discussions was surprising, but it did not appear as thought WJC ever-dodged +questions about the topic, they just weren't addressed. Much like My Life, one theme that repeated itself was WJC's +conflict with and disdain for the media, especially long passages about NYT and Washington Post. There are a few +instances where gives them credit on their reporting, but you would be hard-pressed to find them. Additionally, there +are numerous mentions of WJC's acute allergies and his chronic fatigue, with imagery of him falling asleep in sessions on +more than a couple occasions. +The book has quite a bit on Whitewater, but given the dearth of public documentation there is little that Branch could +write that hadn't been said. One thing I had not recalled was the D'Amato's subpoena of CVC's friends, later quashed, +who slept over while NBC's Rose Law Firm records were in the White House. Branch does portray a helpful distinction in +how WJC looked at Whitewater and other scandals. While WJC attacks Whitewater as a political hunt, Branch does have +him WJC saying that Filegate needed to be separated from Whitewater, because this was a legitimate inquiry. There are +some quips that could catch someone's eye, such as WJC referring to Paula Jones as ""a 'new bimbo' he [WJC] didn't +even recognize."" +Branch does not dwell on Lewinsky or the impeachment. With the exception of Bruce, Bennett and Kendall, no other +lawyers are mentioned. There is one passage that I am looking into, in which WJC says part of the reason he didn't +mention his relationship with Lewinsky at first was because she was being threatened with jail time if she was found to +be lying under oath and had he told the truth he could become a witness against her. This is a very small passage that +could easily be missed, but one that it is important to note as I don't recall hearing this before. (This is addressed more +fully below.) +There are a few relationships that track through the book more than others. They include WJC's relationship with Gore, +which maps in part because it is not a focal point until the end, and his contentious relationship with Janet Reno. The +one Senator that appears to be most discussed negatively is Moynihan. All three of these issues are discussed in turn +below. WJC is portrayed as an extremely loving and attentive father and HRC is portrayed in a much more human light +than other books/articles covering this time period, with ample mention of her relationship with CVC and images of +affection between her and WJC, both pre- and post-impeachment. +On foreign relations there is a lot of time spent discussing the Middle East, Northern Ireland, the Balkans, China, Russia, +Pakistan/India and in the beginning of the book, Haiti. (Note: Much of what is written about Haiti is about Branch's own +experience there and on the subject.) There is also a fair amount of discussion about North Korea, but nothing that has +not been discussed in the past few weeks. Bin Laden is discussed in what seems to track mention of him in My Life, +which seems to have more detail and background than this book. +In certain cases there is more detail here than in My Life, for example on his trip to Pakistan WJC wrote that the USSS +cancelled one stop because they would be ""defenseless"" flying in, whereas Brach writes that the streets would be lined +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 +with ""assassins."" There are candid looks at WIC's take on certain people and the relationship between some, such as +Albright and Berger's dislike of Holbrooke, and a more detailed depiction of Yeltsin's drinking, such as yelling outside of +Blair House for a cab to get pizza. +One thing to note, is that often times WJC seems to be speaking to Branch intentionally without the recorders going, but +Branch writes about those interactions and exchanges nonetheless. Such is the case with HRC's Gephardt comment. +The following items are addressed in the memo: +Wen Ho Lee and Terror Clause of Crime Bill 4 +WJC and Lewinsky's Silence 4 +HRC and Kissinger 4 +HRC and gay/lesbian 5 +Tension with Moynihan 5 +HRC as World Player 5 +Jesse Jackson 6 +Tension with Janet Reno 6 +Portrayal of Carter +Relationship with Gore 8 +Other (This includes: Maggie recommending Panetta, HRC and Haiti Invasion, ITAV co-author flap, Subpoenas of CVC's +Friends, Vernon Jordan on Extramarital Sex, Gore/HRC ticket, WJC suggesting Rubin run for Senate, Trip to South Asia) +11 +Wen Ho Lee and Terror Clause of Crime Bill +In discussing Wen Ho Lee's release Branch characterizes WJC's lack of knowledge about the strained interpretation of +the anti-terrorist provisions in the crime bill and arbitrary detentions as a ""confession."" My Life only mentions Lee's +accusation in passing and does not again discuss Lee. Below are two passages from Branch's book the first giving context +and the second about the Terror Clause of the Crime Bill. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 +0 The year closed on spies and terrorism. The Justice Department, after fierce debate among the security agencies, +indicted nuclear scientist Wen Ho Lee on fifty-nine counts of copying classified material to his personal computer. Lee +was being handled like a radioactive espionage defendant—no bail, lockdown, solitary confinement—even though the +long dragnet had produced no evidence that he offered secrets to China or anyone else. The president said experts were +telling him the worst spies sometimes stored their treason for a rainy day. This sounded fishy to me. Clinton shrugged. +Nothing would please him more than to establish Lee's innocence. [Branch, 577] +0 While Lee was indicted, Branch writes that WJC noted that others ""were being held in secret, uncharged and +untried...He [WIC] was embarrassed not to have sponsored this measure into law without foreseeing such arbitrary +detentions...Under the terrorist act, any prosecutor should decide within the legal limit...whether to bring charges on the +testimony of a secret informant or otherwise. To his dismay, Clinton had learned of defendants held incommunicado for +more than six months. One extreme detention had last three years. 'I think it's wrong,' he [WJC] said. 'It's not American. +We accept guilty people on the street to enjoy and protect our freedom."" [Branch, 629] +WJC and Lewinsky's Silence +Branch writes that part of WJC's motive for not discussing what had happened with Lewinsky was that it could send her +to jail, as she had denied it. +0 ""Also, he pointed out that Starr had been threatening to jail Lewinsky all year over her sworn denial of the affair. If +Clinton had come forward with anything at all about their relationship, he said Starr could have turned him into a +witness against Lewinsky, betraying her discreet silence. Such subtleties, while original, struck me as tendentious. The +president never claimed chivalry as the real motive for his steadfast denial, nor did he dispute the essential truth of +Lewinsky's account."" [Branch, 511] +HRC and Kissinger +The following could be fodder for people who want to continue to string along the notion of channeling Eleanor +Roosevelt. +0 There is a passage in which HRC describes an exchange she had with Kissinger at a dinner where he complained that +if the health care bill passed he wouldn't be able to see his own doctor. She continued to say ""it was interesting, in fact, +that she had dreamed about Kissinger only a few nights before. His visage turned suddenly effervescent at a banquet, +announcing gladly that his worries were over because the Clinton health care bill was dying. 'Oh, no, Dr. Kissinger,' she +replied coolly. 'Don't be sure that it's dead. We'll keep fighting, and there's always light at the end of the tunnel.' She +said Kissing blanched, speechless at her deft reminder of the Vietnam War...Now at last, in Hillary's dream, it registered +that his strategic designs had spewed carnage and venom for seven needless years...'That's what I dreamed,' Hillary +repeated, lost in thought. 'You know, I always get my revenge in dreams, but never in real life."" [Branch, 179] +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 +HRC and gay/lesbian +Writing about a call with HRC from NYS, Branch recalls how W1C's counsel got very ""exercised."" WJC left the room. ""He +was subdued on his return. 'You know, I've had a lot more contact with gay people in my life than Hillary.' He sighed. Her +temperament had a conservative, religious core, formed before homosexual issues were even mentionable. New York +politics was a tough crucible, and she was unsure what heat she could take. On the other hand, personal experience +could speed adaptation."" [Branch, 551] +Tension with Moynihan +There are several occasions throughout the book that Branch recalls WJC's grievances and frustration with Moynihan. +For example: +0 When Moynihan called for the international arms embargo to be unilaterally lifted so that Bosnia could fight for +themselves, Branch writes, ""The president flinched when I mentioned [it]...'That's just a freebie for him,' snapped +Clinton, 'and he knows it."" [p.140] +0 In regard to health care: ""Echoing comments by Hillary at dinner, he [WIC] faulted Senator Moynihan for aimless +hearings conducted without a strategy or theme."" [p.170] +0 Discussing Independent Counsel: ""She [HRC] was especially scornful of the Democrats, and quoted a number of +them. Senator Moynihan, for instance, publicly said the Clintons were nice people and he was sure they had nothing to +hide. 'Why not have an investigation?' he often asked. She said Moynihan skated blithely on the surface, never +produced results in Congress, and could not withstand such scrutiny himself for five minutes, living in an apartment +secured through his chairmanship of the Pennsylvania Avenue Development Corporation."" [Brach, 182] +0 ""Donnybrook"" argument in which Moynihan said of a fundraising speech WJC gave citing a regretted hypothetical +about a controversial decision. Moynihan told the press, ""He doesn't understand...that he's conceding the principles."" +WJC confronted him about lack of context given to the statement to the press and said that Moynihan knew what he +was doing by ""feeding the beast of hostile presumption about Clinton's motives."" [Branch, 299] +HRC as World Player +There are several images as HRC as a player on the world stage, both with WJC and on her own. Several examples +follow: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 +0 Middle East: Discussing peace with King Hussein: ""They had retreated for lunch as two couples—the Clintons, with +the king and his wife, Queen Noor—in the family dining room...Their agenda was a delicate race between Hussein's +failing health and his desire to make peace with Israel. The president said he and Hillary pounded away on symptoms of +national estrangement: closed boarders, water disputes, travel barriers, war grievances, contested airspace, sealed +electrical grids, and so on. Hussein gave them a feast of goodwill without commitment on any point."" [Branch, 170] +0 South Asia: Regarding her trip to South Asia with CVC in 1995, ""Her [HRC's] schedule was far more demanding than +ceremonial, pushing both conflict resolution and civic empowerment for downtrodden women."" [Branch, 236] Later +Branch tells of Benazir Bhutto praising CVC and HRC. ""By contrast with a superficial American press, which portrayed +Hillary as a demure tourist of no policy significance in exotic Asia, Bhutto said she had touched essential political chords +with whirlwind encouragements for citizenship groups and small-scale economic development."" (The note contrasting +Bhutto corresponds to a NYT article which Branch quotes in the footer saying, ""she [HRC] played the traditional role of +First Lady as wife and mother..."") [Branch, 246] +0 China Speech: Branch outlines how HRC felt the speech needed to be bigger than China and how she depicted the +""harsh reality everywhere"" from China to Africa. He then cites WJC commenting on the rave reviews of HRC's speech. +[Branch, 289] +0 Regarding the Russian financial system meltdown, Branch writes ""Yeltsin seemed so removed from urgent political +tasks that both Clintons counseled him directly."" [Branch, 512-513] +Jesse Jackson +Branch writes about Jesse Jackson calling CVC after the Lewinsky story broke and having continued contact with her +throughout the period. WJC thanks him for his support of CVC. This goes into some detail about WJCs gratitude, but the +fact that Jackson ""counseled"" CVC has been public knowledge dating back to at least 1999. +0 ""But now Jesse had done something he would not forget. When the Lewinsky news broke, he called Chelsea at +Stanford. Jesse was the only nonfamily adult with her cell phone number. How he got it was another story. Jesse said he +knew this was terrible for her. Nothing like it had ever happened in American politics. He did not know everything +involved, but he wanted to remind Chelsea how much her parents loved her.

If he +removed her, however, the pending decision on yet another special prosecutor [for 1996 campaign finance] would fall +to Reno's deputy, Jamie Gorelick, who, Clinton feared, may share Reno's wholesale devotion to outside control for any +case in which the president himself may become a target...lf he removed both Reno and Gorelick, to start fresh, it would +touch off a firestorm of protest like Nixon's Saturday Night Massacre of the Justice Department officials during the +Watergate scandal. That was not an option."" [Branch, 388-389] +0 Branch writes about WJC talking about Reno and Louis Freeh disregarding a letter from D'Amato and continuing to +allow independent counsel to go after Ciseneros. The same held true for Mike Espy. Branch then outlines a meeting +between WJC and Reno. Reno had made public statements about her ""desire to stay on the job. 'I told her I didn't like +that one damn bit,' the president said tersely. 'I didn't hire her to work for the New York Times and Washington Post. I +hired her to work for me."" [Branch, 398] He continues to outline that Clinton did give Reno credit for some good +achievements including coordination with U.S. attorneys and that he didn't blame her for the special prosecutor on +Whitewater, but that ""he did blame her for abdicating responsibility to supervise the investigations ever since, letting +mandates multiply almost at will. She accepted criteria that were ludicrous and crassly partisan. Reno had failed to +defend the presidency itself—not Clinton personally, but the institution—and by extension the entire executive +branch...He told me she had no clue what he meant. His advisers considered her more naïve than upright, and the +fuzziness of the distinction seemed to save her."" [Branch, 399] He cites that Clinton warned her that she should prepare +herself for not staying in the job for the entire second term. +Portrayal of Jimmy Carter +There are parallels that could be drawn between WJC/BHO and Carter/WJC both in terms of Carter's trip to North Korea +and the mission he went on to Haiti. WJC clearly was frustrated by Carter's seeming desire to be on the front lines. +North Korea: +0 ""On North Korea, he [WJC] said Jimmy Carter had initiated his own recent trip with a call to Al Gore, and Clinton had +approved the volunteer mission to break through North Korea's extreme isolation...Sure enough, Carter did reach North +Korean dictator Kim II-sung, who proposed to allow inspection of North Korea's nuclear facilities in exchange for relief +from the harsh economic sanctions. The only hitch was that Carter announced the terms on CNN before they became +official, adding gratuitously that he never had agreed with sanctions in the first place. News stories had the White House +seething, but Clinton made light of the spat. He said the deal was since ratified by an exchange of letters, and he did not +believe Carter would criticize official policy 'if the game were still in doubt.""

He didn't want to leave and WJC told him he had to. Like after North +Korea, Carter again, Carter went to the press first. ""The three negotiators flew back to Washington late Sunday, and +Carter, invited to stay over at the White House, called CNN's Judy Woodruff after midnight to arrange an interview the +next morning before he reported to Clinton on his mission. This conduct, the president said tersely, was not right...The +press was full of retrospective stories about friction between him and his three prominent negotiators... He said the +current newsweeklies lapped up criticism by Carter as an embarrassment to Clinton...Many of his advisers griped that +Jimmy Carter thought he was still president, but Clinton found this criticism too jaundiced. Carter had spoken with +restraint at their joint press conference, he allowed, exhibiting a keen political ear...To Clinton, Carter simply felt that he +had earned the right to speak his mind as an international statesman, even about a mission he had accepted for the +United States government complete with an Air Force jet. This sense of entitlement could make Carter a thorn, but +Clinton thought his value far outweighed the political annoyance. He considered Carter a sterling ex-resident."" [Branch, +200-201] +Dispatch of Bombers Near Iraq +0 ""He expected military strikes to win bipartisan assent, including former presidents Ford, Reagan and Bush. 'Dole will +support me,' he said. 'Carter will probably criticize me. Carter always criticizes, but he doesn't have much positive to +say."" [Branch, 518] +Gore +For the majority of the book, there is little discussion of WJC and Gore's relationship. There are few places where he is +briefly mentioned and a couple of scenes with some levity. The end, however, describes the seemingly brutally candid +conversation between the two about the 2000 election and the impeachment. +0 On page 92 Branch writes, ""No, he [Clinton] did not ask Gore to take over a failed foreign policy, as alleged, but to +improve public presentations by his troika of 'bad talkers': shy National Security Adviser Tony Lake, boring Secretary of +State Warren Christopher, and disorganized Defense Secretary Les Aspin."" [Branch, 92] +0 In one-passage WJC talks about asking Gore to lead the independent review of Hazel O'Leary and also having Gore +substitute for him at an economic conference in Japan. The latter did not fare well as other nations were offended that +Gore, not WJC attended. Gore insisted that WJC needed to go to Japan to redeem himself and the administration for his +absence. Gore pointed to a few days in January, but WJC ""pronounced them vital to Chelsea's schoolwork. Gore blinked. +So what?...Mutual exasperation spiked. 'Al,' Clinton told him, 'I am not going to Japan and leave Chelsea by herself to +take these exams.' Gore erupted. He thought Clinton had lost his bearing. They had a big fight, said the president, and +were still wrangling about dates for Japan."" Branch states that this fight wound up being around the time WJC saw +Lewinsky. [Branch, 316-317] +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 +0 On page 396-397 there is a scene, which shows Gore's sense of humor and Gore, WJC, et al working as a team to +secure the Cabinet for the second term. +0 Later there is a passage about an exchange between WJC and HRC about Gore trying to hire a second criminal +lawyer. HRC already knew he was paying the first one $30,000 per month. The conversation is about a leak of an offer +from Jim Neal of TN, the former Watergate prosecutor to defend Gore for free. The exchange is more on ethics of the +offer and its leak to the press than about Gore. +0 On Gore's announcing his campaign. ""The president had called twice to congratulate Gore for his kickoff events— +once from Geneva, hours later from Paris. Clinton thought the only glitches were technical...But Gore got all the big +things right. His twofold message was perfect: distinguish himself from Clinton's personal flaws, and tell voters exactly +what he would do for them in the White House. The president said it was fine for Gore to call Clinton's affair with +Monica Lewinsky 'inexcusable.' First, it was true. Second, it showed a necessary strength to criticized the boss. Third, +Gore would be badgered to death until he did. 'Al,' Clinton told him, 'if you thought it would help in the campaign, I +would let you flog me at noon right on the doorstep of the Washington Post."" [Branch, 553-554] Branch continues that +WJC told Gore to ignore reporting that he was offended or critical of his campaign. ""On tape, the president said he +confided his chief strategic worry only to Gore himself and to Gore's pollster, Mark Penn. The vice president must +project his platform—where he stood, precisely how and where he would lead the country—because the Republicans +would try to knock him off substance."" [Branch, 554] +0 WJC offered critiques of Gore's campaign throughout, but it was always framed as his fear of Gore not succeeding +him. For example, ""Clinton still thought Gore could win. Most people considered him smart, experience, and motivated. +He examined the pitfalls for Gore in a campaign showcasing presidential character over detailed agendas for the +country. Reporters called Gore ""stiff,"" but Clinton discounted this liability. He thought Gore's droll sense of humor would +wear well over time. Gore also was perceived to be too conventional a Democrat, therefore lacking independence, +which called for Gore to emphasize more his own passion and initiatives. Then the president said Gore could have a +brooding quality about him, not worrisome or off-putting in itself, but potentially damaging if his serious nature failed to +give voters a lifted. Clinton isolated the word ""sunny."" Gore needed more of it."" [Branch, 599] +0 He also complimented Gore's knowledge of government workings. ""Gore knew Washington. Believe me, said the +president, his administration would have made many more errors in the first two years had it not been for the vice +president."" He then goes on to say that WJC suggested Gore find someone who would be a bright spot to run with, +perhaps Durbin or Bradley or Kerrey, although he also goes into great detail about the virtues of Mikulski, even though +she would never get chosen. How much of this was WJC's emphasis versus Branch's focus on his home state senator is +unclear. [Branch, 599, 618-19] +0 WJC criticized Gore for not running on the successes of the administration. ""They should be running essentially for a +third term, said the president, but they were afraid the Clinton-Gore record would tarnish them with Clinton's +character."" [Branch, 623] Branch gives WJC's critique of Gore in debate that had been heard before—that Gore lacked +style and a light touch. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759656 Date: 06/30/2015 +0 Branch has WJC recalling a conversation between WJC and Gore where ""Gore had bared himself in one of their +stressful consultations by insisting that he, Gore, was a good politician, elaborating that he meant good on the policy, +and also good on the politics, but admitted that he did not instinctively blend the two. Gore said he had to think about +it, and Clinton thought this was pretty close to the bone...He had the stuff to be a great president, and this was the +message that Clinton must convey somehow without seeming to brag on his own record."" [Branch, 623-624] +0 The big passage about Gore begins on page 641 and extends to 645. Branch notes that WJC was unsure at first +about recording the details. At the outset it says, ""For his own part, Gore was not angry, nor did he blame Clinton for his +defeat, but he wanted to acknowledge forthrightly that some people around him did."" [Branch, 642] It has WJC +acknowledging that Gore's use of him was proper—he was best in the White House. Then he says, ""I think you made a +mistake not to use me more in the last ten days,"" Clinton told Gore, 'but otherwise that was not a big deal. I was much +more upset about your message, now that we're being honest."" [Branch, 642] Branch recalls WJC saying Gore fought +bag saying that ""Clinton's drag plagued every direction."" Clinton then said that Gore was better at governance than +Clinton, and Gore would be better for the nation than Bush, and that he was an ""unparalleled"" vice president, but that +he had ""blind spots."" Branch writes that WJC kept saying their confrontation was ""surreal."" +o Gore had a ""fresh grievance...he wanted Clinton to know that the Buddhist temple fund-raising scandal had been +the worst experience of his life. No one had ever questioned his personal integrity, but corrosive publicity and whispers +had tormented him now for four years. Gore said he had not been disposed to blame Clinton. However, he remembered +telling the president that he found himself the only English-speaking person at one of those Asian fund-raisers. And the +president was in charge of the party apparatus that was supposed to screen all the donations for trouble. So he did +blame Clinton in a way. The president told me he could scarcely believe the ensuing tales of suspicion. Gore must still be +in shock from the election, or unhinged. 'I thought he was in Neverland,' he said."" [Branch, 643-644] +o Branch continues: ""The vice president asked Clinton about Monica Lewinsky. He had supported Clinton all through +the impeachment, publicly and privately, while declaring himself disappointed. Yes, said the president. He appreciated +that. However, persisted Gore, Clinton did not confide any personal feelings. He never explained exactly what happened. +There was little to say, Clinton replied, beyond failure and regret. He was humiliated and angry, had made mistake. He +had misled the American people, and he was sorry. Gore closed his point with emphasis. Well, he said, this is the first +time you have apologized to me personally. Clinton did a double take...Gore treated the confession as a watershed. +Their colliding perspectives made both of them angry. Clinton exploded that Gore's reaction was phony. What was so +significant here?...Gore exploded back. He was feeling a stubborn repeat of the defensiveness and delayed honesty that +somehow cost the election. Clinton's character was at the root of it..."" [Branch, 644-45] +Other +0 Maggie as Person Recommending Panetta: Unlike in My Life, in Branch's book, it has WJC asking Maggie to compile +confidential suggestions for McLarty's replacement.

This should do it. +Let's speak when you have time. +Rep. Joe Wilson's Rebel Yell +Inside the racist klavern that Joe Wilson joined By Max Blumenthal +Since Republican Rep. Joe Wilson of South Carolina bellowed at President Barack Obama, ""You lie!"" during the +president's nationally televised speech on healthcare, the fourth term backbencher has emerged as a hero among the +conservative grassroots. One of the most enthusiastic endorsements of Wilson's histrionics came from the Sons of +Confederate Veterans (SCV), a group that Wilson has belonged to for several years. +""Mr. Wilson, never apologize for allowing your love of truth to overrun your desire to be polite,"" the SCV Tea Party declared on its website. ""It is the liar who must apologize, not the one who +identifies the liar!"" +Who are the SCV? A once-proud organization of Confederate history buffs and re-enactors who spent their +organization's money to restore Civil War-era battlefields and Confederate cemeteries, by 2006 the SCV was +substantially taken over by an organized +cadre of white supremacist radicals (read here for more background) who sought to turn the nation's oldest Southern historical society into what the +veteran white supremacist activist Kirk Lyons called ""a modern, 21st century Christian war machine capable of uniting +the Confederate community and leading it to ultimate victory."" When the racist junta had seized much of the SCV's +leadership positions, the Southern Poverty Law Center released an extensive list of SCV officials who belonged to +""hate groups."" +Lyons, a key leader of the white supremacists who took over the SCV, had harbored dreams of creating a seemingly +benign front group for a more sophisticated version of the Ku Klux Klan. ""I have great respect for the Klan historically, +but, sadly the Klan today is ineffective and sometimes even destructive,"" Lyons told a German neo-Nazi magazine in +1992. ""It would be good if the Klan followed the advice of former Klansman Robert Miles: 'Become invisible. Hang the +robes and hoods in the cupboard and become an underground org anization."" With the SCV, Lyons discovered he didn't +have to go underground after all. +Once Lyons helped install his close friend, Ron Wilson, as president of the SCV, the organization's political newsletter, The Southern Mercury (where Wilson served as senior editor), +transformed into a propaganda mill for crude white supremacist cant. Mailed to all dues-paying members of the SCV — +presumably including Rep. Joe Wilson — until it went defunct in 2008, the Mercury has published articles describing +blacks as genetically inferior to whites, calling African-Americans as ""a childlike people,"" and warned that if Obama runs +for re-election, race riots of an ""exceedingly violent nature"" would immediately ensure, leaving ""entire sections of some +of our cities in ruins."" +Here are a few highlights from the Southern Mercury: +""After the turn of the 20th century, the white Southerners had disfranchised and segregated the blacks, in perhaps the +mildest reaction possible at=2 Othat time to the blacks' transgressions. The blacks — then a childlike people — had been +selling their votes to the Democrats en masse for $.25 apiece in national elections."" +—""Where We Stand Now, And How We Got Here,"" by Frank Conner, Southern Mercury, September/October 2003 +""Previously, anthropologists had routinely recorded the notable differences in IQ among the races; but at Columbia, a +liberal cultural anthropologist named Franz Boas...decreed that there were no differences in IQ among the races, and the +only biological differences between the blacks and whites were of superficial nature... Meanwhile, the liberals in the +media heaped special praise upon black athletes, musicians, singers, and writers — and treated them as typical of the +black race. The liberals were creating a false image of the blacks in America as a highly competent people who were +being held back by the prejudiced white Southerners."" +--Conner, September/October 2003 +""It is very clear to me that if Barack Obama should be elected President, he would be extremely anti-white and would +demand reparations for slavery and press hard for affirmative action to the degree that it would hurt young whites who +were seeking jobs or admission to College and Graduate Schools."" +— +""Americans Face The Worst Presidential Candidates In History,"" by Robert Slimp, Southern Mercury, May/June 2008 +""I believe that [Obama's] rhetoric and anti-white legislative proposals would stir up racial riots.

Joe Wilson could have resigned from the SCV as soon as the organization's takeover by open white supremacists +began. But he didn't. Or he could have withdrawn his membership when the SCV's flagship journal turned into a racist +rag. But he didn't.

Its attached and pasted below for your review. +Thanks +Dan +A New Approach for Missile Defense +By Hillary Clinton +Iran's development of short- and medium-range ballistic missiles poses a clear and growing threat to the security of our +European allies and our own forces stationed in the region. That is why President Obama announced yesterday that the +United States is ready to deploy missile defenses in Europe specifically geared toward stopping these missiles. This is a +threat we cannot ignore. +Previous missile defense efforts have focused on protecting against intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching +the United States, but our intelligence now shows that the threat from these long-range weapons has not progressed as +quickly as had been feared. In contrast, evidence indicates that Iran is developing short- and medium- range missiles +that will eventually enable it to target most of Europe, the Caucuses and the Middle East, including U.S. and NATO +forces. +We deeply appreciate the willingness of the Czech and Polish Governments to host the original missile defense +architecture on their soil, and the decision to deploy other systems to better meet this growing threat came as a result +of a long and careful review of our policies, capabilities, and requirements. This decision does not alter the unshakeable +commitment of the United States to the security of these vital NATO allies. Rather, it reflects our determination to +jointly meet the threats that endanger us all. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759705 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759705 Date: 06/30/2015 +The old focus on long-range missile defense systems left significant gaps in our ability to defend against shorter-range +threats, exposing our allies and our forces stationed in Europe. Many experts have also expressed concerns about the +testing record and effectiveness of the long-range interceptors that were to be deployed in Poland. +Our new approach is different in a number of ways. +First, we will use well-tested missile defense systems, such as the Standard Missile-3, against the current threats. And +unlike the old fixed, silo-based interceptors, they will be mobile and able to shift as threats evolve. +Second, while previous efforts sought to by-pass NATO in favor of bilateral agreements, the Obama Administration plans +to make coordination with NATO a central element of our approach. By working with our allies to build a workable and +cost-effective missile defense system in Europe, we can better contribute to the protection of our NATO allies and +increase regional stability. +For 60 years, the NATO alliance has been a force for peace, prosperity and security in Europe and around the world +because of its commitment to collective security: an attack on one ally is an attack on all. An attack on London or +Warsaw is an attack on New York or Washington. NATO demonstrated this commitment after the September 11 +terrorist attacks, when for the first time, the alliance invoked Article V and NATO sent assets to the United States to help +protect us from additional terrorist attacks. +Unfortunately, the old long-range defense plan created the impression of ""two-tiers"" of security within the alliance by +focusing only on theoretical threats that could one day affect the mainland United States, while leaving our European +allies vulnerable to very real short- and medium-range missiles. +Our new plan corrects this imbalance. We will continue to monitor and counter longer-term threats, but we will work +with our allies to protect all NATO territory. We will focus on the most imminent threat, while also developing the +capacity to adjust quickly if the threat evolves. +Finally, we will engage with Russia as part of our new approach. Russia is also vulnerable to Iran's short- and medium- +range missiles and we will seek to cooperate to address this common threat. I am pleased that the Russians agreed at +the Moscow Summit to a joint threat assessment of the ballistic missile challenges of the 21st century, including from +Iran. This is a positive first step and I look forward to future progress. +In short, this new missile defense plan is more realistic about the threats we face, more reliable in the tools we will use, +and more inclusive of the allies we are pledged to protect. +While we pursue this new path, we will also redouble our diplomatic efforts to engage Iran and focus its leaders on a +clear choice: whether to join the international community as a responsible member or to continue down a path to +further isolation. +But the security of our allies and our forces cannot wait. That is why we are moving ahead with a new approach for +missile defense. +728 words +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759705 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +783,C05759707,SATURDAY,ValmoroLJ@state.gov,H,80,2009-09-16T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/1_5_9/DOC_0C05759707/C05759707.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Saturday,'ValmoroU@state.gov'; Huma Abedin,H ,,"Wednesday, September 16, 2009 11:30 PM",F-2014-20439,C05759707,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Could I leave earlier on Sat--btw 8-9am since the mtg is Fri night?,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759707 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN +FULL +From: H +Sent: Wednesday, September 16, 2009 11:30 PM +To: 'ValmoroU@state.gov'; Huma Abedin +Subject: Saturday +Could I leave earlier on Sat--btw 8-9am since the mtg is Fri night? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759707 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +784,C05759708,SHEIKHA MOSA OF QATAR,cb,H,80,2009-09-17T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/1_5_9/DOC_0C05759708/C05759708.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Sheikha Mosa of Qatar,'cb,H ,psolisdoyle,"Thursday, September 17, 2009 5:49 AM",F-2014-20439,C05759708,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Thanks for the help.

Now the request indicates the Military Prosecutor General +needs to fly all over the country to investigate. Not only is the request 18 months late in coming, it makes no sense. In 4 +of 5 cases, the military prosecutor in the Province has jurisdiction. They just need to continue their work. With the +suspects all in Kinshasa, it makes their work more difficult. +Is someone trying to make some money? Were they given the impression that the international community is +so interested in this case, but the government is not? Or is there so little trust in the local prosecutors that central +government wants more control? Or do governmental officials know so little about how criminal cases function that +they are inadvertently delaying procedures. +Conclusion.

Here's my piece.... +Thanks again for Friday. Much favorable comment. Good luck at the UNGA. +President Barack Obama's announcement of a new system for protecting America's allies against Iranian missiles has +ignited charges that he is scaling back the one he inherited from George W. Bush as a concession to the Russians. +In fact, the Obama plan is a big improvement on the Bush one, and it is designed to counter an evolving Iranian threat, +not to mollify Russian anxieties. +Mr Bush's decision to put 10 missile interceptors in Poland and an associated radar in the Czech Republic was based +on a concern that Iran was developing long-range rockets that could hit the US. The Bush system would have been less +effective against shorter-range Iranian missiles, and it would have left much of Europe, notably including America's ally +Turkey, unprotected. +Over the last several years, the Iranians have shifted their efforts from developing a few long-range rockets to +deploying large numbers of shorter-range ones that pose an immediate danger to southeastern Europe and the Middle +East, as well as to US forces stationed there. Unlike Mr Bush's, Mr Obama's plan will quickly field a missile-defence +capability to address an existing threat. It can be upgraded to deal with longer-range Iranian missiles in the future. +The Central Europeans who have reacted to the decision with apprehension or alarm should recognize that the +replacement of a conceptually flawed plan with a more credible one strengthens the bonds of transatlantic defence. +The view from Moscow has been clouded by outright paranoia. Military experts there suspected that the US rockets +in Poland, while advertised as defensive, could be used offensively, even pre-emptively, against Russia. Laying to rest +that far-fetched scenario was not the prime motivation for Mr Obama's decision, nor should it have been. However, by +removing what has been a gratuitous irritant in bilateral relations, the president has improved the prospects for US- +Russian arms control negotiations now underway in Geneva. +Those talks could produce by December a new treaty reducing numbers of strategic — that is, intercontinental — +weapons. If ratified by the US Senate (which will not be easy, given the ferocity of the partisan wars in Washington), the +US and Russia will be on track for further reductions in the future. Mr Obama and Russian President Dmitri Medvedev, +who are due to meet in New York this week, have jointly called for the eventual goal of eliminating nuclear weapons. +As they and their successors take steps in that direction, they will have to grapple with a stark paradox of the nuclear +age: mutual deterrence depends on each side being vulnerable to retaliation from the other. If either side has enough +defences to trump the other side's offence, the mutuality of deterrence breaks down and one or both sides will be on +hair-trigger, making war more likely in a crisis. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759768 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759768 Date: 06/30/2015 +American statesmen pounded this inescapable truth into the heads of their initially sceptical Soviet counterparts 40 +years ago. The result was the Anti-Ballistic Missile (ABM) treaty signed by Richard Nixon and Leonid Brezhnev in 1972. By +limiting the defensive capability of both superpowers, the ABM treaty was a necessary companion piece to a series of +treaties setting ceilings on offensive weaponry. Because nuclear weapons were expected to with us forever, the ABM +treaty was meant to last in perpetuity. +While the Soviets were converted to the logic of restricting defence, Ronald Reagan was not. The late US president +championed the development of a space-based comprehensive shield that would make offensive weapons — and +therefore mutual deterrence —""impotent and obsolete."" +Many experts believed Reagan's vision, which they derisively nicknamed Star Wars, was an impossible dream. So did +his successor, George H. W. Bush, who treated the program with benign neglect while negotiating with the Russians in +the Strategic Arms Reduction Talks (START) begun by Mr Reagan. +The second president Bush reversed his father's policy. He greatly weakened the START process, pulled the US out of +the ABM treaty and sought to revive a national missile defence (NMD) system. His decision to build the interceptor and +radar sites in Poland and the Czech Republic was, as one of his aides told me at the time, in large measure about +""pouring concrete for what will eventually be a global NMD."" +Key officials of the Obama administration — including the president himself, who studied arms control in college — +understand the linkage between reduction of offences and regulation of defences. However, they have avoided raising +that issue in the context of last week's decision. That is partly because they want their plan to be judged on its own +merits, vis-à-vis the Iranian threat. But it is because they have more than enough fights with the Republicans without +further energizing the right wing by trying to reinstate the principles of the ABM treaty. +Yet sooner or later the US administration will have to grasp the nettle of regulating strategic defences. Otherwise, +continued reductions in strategic nuclear offences will be either impossible or, worse, dangerous. +The author is president of the Brookings Institution. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759768 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +819,C05759772,CGI SPEECH FIRST DRAFT,Imuscatine,H,80,2009-09-20T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/1_5_9/DOC_0C05759772/C05759772.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,H,,F-2014-20439,C05759772,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"H +Sunday, September 20, 2009 10:19 PM +'Imuscatine +Re: CGI Speech First Draft +I'm in NY.

The past year may have been tough for the world's richest countries, but it has been far harder +for the poorest. Markets for exports have slumped as rich conumers have reined in their spending.

The CGI is not +about the old government-to-government aid model. Its members aim to deliver smart aid, based on partnerships +between business, philanthropists, and social entrepreneurs. Mrs. Clinton's speech is the perfect opportunity to show +that government is ready to work with the CGI crowd to rethink how it does aid. +One promising, for-profit solution to poverty is to take the model of microfinance -- one of the more resilient corners of +banking during the financial crisis -- and extend it to improve education, health care, clean water and sanitation. Loan- +based investments can be more sustainable than traditional aid or charity, because they tap the far larger sums available +in the capital markets and are not dependent on the whims of political leaders or budgetary wrangling. Some in +government may be reluctant to give up their near monopoly on aid but it is long overdue. +A second opportunity is to get the public more involved in the aid business. New giving organizations such as Kiva + have demonstrated how the public can play an effective role in allocating money to +needy people . +Government should be doing all it can to encourage his type of mass philanthrocapitalism that levers the generosity of +the American people and taps into the wisdom of crowds. It is time for government aid to be made more democratic by +letting Kiva and others like it distribute some of the tax dollars. +Finally, Mrs. Clinton should seize the opportunity to turn the aid business on its head and pass control from the +bureaucrats to the poor people themselves. Technology such as the internet and the mobile phone are now widespread +in the developing world, so why not use these tools to give a greater voice in aid spending to the people the money is +intended to help? Much aid has gone to waste because of a lack of feedback from the intended beneficiaries. Imagine +how the best technology entrepreneurs could transform the aid business, in the same way that they have changed the +media, by giving the poor a say in how the aid billions are spent. +The Obama Administration has made all the right noises about making government smarter by working more with the +philanthrocapitalists.

The past year may have been tough for the world's richest countries, but it has been far harder +for the poorest. Markets for exports have slumped as rich consumers have reined in their spending. Government +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759807 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759807 Date: 06/30/2015 +budgets are creaking under the strain of the global recession and foreign aid is threatening to dry up. At the same time, +the intellectual attack on aid has escalated, led by the author of ""Dead Aid"" , the African economist, Dambisa Moyo. +The CGI has become the showcase for those who believe Moyo is wrong and that aid can be effective. The CGI is not +about the old government-to-government aid model. Its members aim to deliver smart aid, based on partnerships +between business, philanthropists, and social entrepreneurs. Mrs. Clinton's speech is the perfect opportunity to show +that government is ready to work with the CGI crowd to rethink how it does aid. +One promising, for-profit solution to poverty is to take the model of microfinance -- one of the more resilient corners of +banking during the financial crisis -- and extend it to improve education, health care, clean water and sanitation. Loan- +based investments can be more sustainable than traditional aid or charity, because they tap the far larger sums available +in the capital markets and are not dependent on the whims of political leaders or budgetary wrangling. Some in +government may be reluctant to give up their near monopoly on aid but it is long overdue. +A second opportunity is to get the public more involved in the aid business. New giving organizations such as Kiva + have demonstrated how the public can play an effective role in allocating money to +needy people . +Government should be doing all it can to encourage his type of mass philanthrocapitalism that levers the generosity of +the American people and taps into the wisdom of crowds. It is time for government aid to be made more democratic by +letting Kiva and others like it distribute some of the tax dollars. +Finally, Mrs. Clinton should seize the opportunity to turn the aid business on its head and pass control from the +bureaucrats to the poor people themselves. Technology such as the Internet and the mobile phone are now widespread +in the developing world, so why not use these tools to give a greater voice in aid spending to the people the money is +intended to help? Much aid has gone to waste because of a lack of feedback from the intended beneficiaries. Imagine +how the best technology entrepreneurs could transform the aid business, in the same way that they have changed the +media, by giving the poor a say in how the aid billions are spent. +The Obama Administration has made all the right noises about making government smarter by working more with the +philanthrocapitalists. At home, the creation of a White House Office of Social Innovation + was a welcome first move, yet it is still to be seen whether this will amount to much +more than a new source of grant funding for the nonprofit sector. The big win is in remaking government through +innovative partnerships with the private sector. Mrs Clinton has been mulling over what to do with USAID for nearly a +year. What better opportunity than the CGI to announce a bold new strategy for smart aid? +Nora Toiv +Office of the Secretary +202-647-8633 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759807 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +836,C05759811,UN,cheryl.mills,H,80,2009-09-24T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/10_11_15_16/DOC_0C05759811/C05759811.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05759811,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"H +Thursday, Se tember 24, 2009 10:05 AM +'cheryl.mills sullivanjj@state.gov'; 'muscatinel@state.gov' +H2 +Fw: Un +B6 +Overlook the source but idea that I should do a topper on timely events and make case is probably right.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05759811 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Cc: +Subject: +H +Thursday, Se tember 24, 2009 10:05 AM +'cheryl.mills sullivanjj@state.gov'; 'muscatinel@state.gov' +H2 +Fw: Un +B6 +Overlook the source but idea that I should do a topper on timely events and make case is probably right. +Original Message +From: Mark J.

With +these 10 generals from the two countires, I am going to be in DC on October 21 and 22. these Generals have been part +our of our Sanya Initiative - the unofficial mil-mil dialogue I started last year. It'll be me, Joe Prueher, Charley Wilhelm, +Ron Fogleman, and Denny Reimer. The Chinese will be led by General Xiong Guangkai and include four other very senior +and respected Generals from the PLA. +The Chinese view this as a formal track one program and take it very seriously. We will meet with ADM Mullen and ADM +Keating in Honolulu and see GEN Cartwright at the Pentagon. It would be a terrific sign of the U.S.'s support for this +relationship if you were able join or host (I'd be pleased to fund) a very private dinner on the evening of the 21 or the +22nd of October.

They have +four experienced surgeons trained in Addis Ababa fistula hospital, and have performed over 1600 fistula surgeries. HEAL +Africa has a wide network of community based workers to identify and support patients coming and returning. HEAL +Africa's surgical teams perform outreach surgery in North Kivu and Maniema provinces in local general hospitals, linked +at the same time with in-service training of local staff, and referring only the most complicated cases to Goma. These +services are recognized by reputable agencies since the United States through IRC, through UNICEF and through +Engenderhealth, has invested in HEAL Africa staff, equipment and infrastructure over the past five year. The Spanish +Embassy has supported HEAL Africa's prevention of fistula initiatives over the past four years, through their wide- +reaching Safe Motherhood program, working through local associations of mothers-to-be for maternity insurance and +access to safe deliveries. +HEAL Africa has a clearly defined place within the government medical system of North Kivu where they are recognized +as the tertiary referral hospital of the province. Thus they are a recognized clinical training centre of the Medical Faculty +of the University of Goma, offering the first two years of accredited clinical specialization in Pediatrics, Obstetrics and +Gynecology, Family Medicine, Surgery and Orthopedics. +HEAL Africa is a Congolese not for profit association which has completely rebuilt itself after total destruction by the +volcano, with assistance from many friends in USA and around the world. They have a state of the art surgical suite, but +the buildings hastily erected in the aftermath of the volcano are inappropriate for the quality of care they wish to offer +to patients: they deserve better. +We wish to request that the State Department give assistance to HEAL Africa to increase the quality of their services and +training capacity through the newly announced package of financial aid. We would like to ask you to fund the +construction of the three storey building which is the final stage of reconstruction of the hospital after the catastrophe +of the volcano in January 2002. The second floor of this building will be entirely devoted to women's fistula services; +and the whole hospital is devoted to teaching and preparing Congolese doctors to give excellent service in the most +underserved areas of Congo. +Many visitors from the US Embassy in Kinshasa, from USAID in Washington and Nairobi, the Secretary General of the +United Nations Mr Ban Ki Moon, Ms Rice from the Security Council, US senators and deputies, and a great number of +aides from your government have visited HEAL Africa and have come away enchanted by a hospital of excellence run +entirely by Congolese staff of the highest caliber.

They have +four experienced surgeons trained in Addis Ababa fistula hospital, and have performed over 1600 fistula surgeries. HEAL +Africa has a wide network of community based workers to identify and support patients coming and returning. HEAL +Africa's surgical teams perform outreach surgery in North Kivu and Maniema provinces in local general hospitals, linked +at the same time with in-service training of local staff, and referring only the most complicated cases to Goma. These +services are recognized by reputable agencies since the United States through IRC, through UNICEF and through +Engenderhealth, has invested in HEAL Africa staff, equipment and infrastructure over the past five year. The Spanish +Embassy has supported HEAL Africa's prevention of fistula initiatives over the past four years, through their wide- +reaching Safe Motherhood program, working through local associations of mothers-to-be for maternity insurance and +access to safe deliveries. +HEAL Africa has a clearly defined place within the government medical system of North Kivu where they are recognized +as the tertiary referral hospital of the province. Thus they are a recognized clinical training centre of the Medical Faculty +of the University of Goma, offering the first two years of accredited clinical specialization in Pediatrics, Obstetrics and +Gynecology, Family Medicine, Surgery and Orthopedics. +HEAL Africa is a Congolese not for profit association which has completely rebuilt itself after total destruction by the +volcano, with assistance from many friends in USA and around the world. They have a state of the art surgical suite, but +the buildings hastily erected in the aftermath of the volcano are inappropriate for the quality of care they wish to offer +to patients: they deserve better. +We wish to request that the State Department give assistance to HEAL Africa to increase the quality of their services and +training capacity through the newly announced package of financial aid. We would like to ask you to fund the +construction of the three storey building which is the final stage of reconstruction of the hospital after the catastrophe +of the volcano in January 2002. The second floor of this building will be entirely devoted to women's fistula services; +and the whole hospital is devoted to teaching and preparing Congolese doctors to give excellent service in the most +underserved areas of Congo. +Many visitorsirom the US Embassy in Kinshasa, from USAID in Washington and Nairobi, the Secretary General of the +United Nations Mr Ban Ki Moon, Ms Rice from the Security Council, US senators and deputies, and a great number of +aides from your government have visited HEAL Africa and have come away enchanted by a hospital of excellence run +entirely by Congolese staff of the highest caliber.

Afghan +authorities imposed the ban on Tuesday with two decrees, the first barring journalists from reporting any violence in the +country between 6:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. (0130-1530 GMT) on polling day. The second ordered journalists to stay away +from the scenes of any attacks. The government says the measures are intended to prevent reports of violence from +scaring Afghans away from voting. Taliban fighters have vowed to disrupt the election.• The United Nations said Afghans +had a right to information, and restricting the media could undermine confidence in the poll. ""People need access to +information, not only on polling day but after polling day. The credibility of these elections is directly linked to the +information that they have access to,"" said Aleem Siddique, spokesman for the U.N. mission in Kabul. ""Its unclear to us +what if any legal basis there would be for such a directive when Afghanistan's constitution guarantees freedom of +expression and freedom of the press. We are making this point to the Afghan authorities,"" he said on Wednesday. +Afghan police have taken a more aggressive attitude towards reporters in recent days.

Although exact +numbers have not been confirmed, media is reporting that approximately 75 people were killed across Baghdad with +over 100 injuries. The most devastating attack appears to have been against the Iraqi MFA, where a VBIED was +exploded in front of the main gate. Zebari's Chief of Staff estimated that there were 35-40 fatalities and up to 40 +injuries resulting from this attack, with 70% of the building damaged. In April, you were the first senior U.S. official to +hold a meeting at the MFA. Deputy Foreign Minister Labid Abbawi, who attended your meeting at the MFA and who's +wife led your meeting with Iraqi war widows, was reportedly slightly injured and quite shaken by the attack. He may +have lost a number of staff members. At this point, we do not know if other senior-ranking MFA officials were killed or +wounded in the attack. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760045 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +892,C05760047,HEY BOSS...

Thus they are a recognized clinical training centre of the Medical Faculty +of the University of Goma, offering the first two years of accredited clinical specialization in Pediatrics, Obstetrics and +Gynecology, Family Medicine, Surgery and Orthopedics. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760047 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760047 Date: 06/30/2015 +HEAL Africa is a Congolese not for profit association which has completely rebuilt itself after total destruction by the +volcano, with assistance from many friends in USA and around the world. They have a state of the art surgical suite, but +the buildings hastily erected in the aftermath of the volcano are inappropriate for the quality of care they wish to offer +to patients: they deserve better. +We wish to request that the State Department give assistance to HEAL Africa to increase the quality of their services and +training capacity through the newly announced package of financial aid. We would like to ask you to fund the +construction of the three storey building which is the final stage of reconstruction of the hospital after the catastrophe +of the volcano in January 2002. The second floor of this building will be entirely devoted to women's fistula services; +and the whole hospital is devoted to teaching and preparing Congolese doctors to give excellent service in the most +underserved areas of Congo. +Many visitors from the US Embassy in Kinshasa, from USAID in Washington and Nairobi, the Secretary General of the +United Nations Mr Ban Ki Moon, Ms Rice from the Security Council, US senators and deputies, and a great number of +aides from your government have visited HEAL Africa and have come away enchanted by a hospital of excellence run +entirely by Congolese staff of the highest caliber.

I've thought about it some more and, while I have no silver bullet, here are some further +thoughts. +-- My impression is that the Pakistanis have been more cooperative lately in assisting us target some AQ in Pakistan and +that, where they hold back, it is less a function of affinity toward AQ and more about with whom AQ is imbedded.. +-- In particular, they seem to be more reluctant to target AQ where it is nestled with groups they want to cultivate in the +event we ""leave"" Afghanistan and they need influence there. They have seen that before and will hedge their bets. +-- So the first point is that we have to address the reason why they are holding back. If we can disabuse them of the +perception that we are leaving Afghanistan, it will be easier to get the Pakistanis to go after AQ in sanctuaries provided +by groups which would be part of a future Afghanistan dominated by the Taliban. +-- Second, I believe that coercive measures are more likely to be effective if they are targeted against military leaders +who give support to AQ and its allies. Assuming we have adequate intelligence, we can go after bank accounts, travel +and other reachable assets of individual Pakistani officers, raising the stakes for those supporting the militants without +creating an inordinate backlash. Blunter measures of coercion, like conditioning our assistance, are more likely to be +counterproductive. Given the level of distrust for us among the Pakistani people, they would see this as another sharp +swing of the U.S. pendulum which would harden their attitudes and make greater cooperation very difficult for the +Pakistani people to accept. +-- There may be greater leverage in giving the Pakistanis incentives to be more aggressive. Of course, the military's +calculation is most important. I'm not sure what is on their shopping list these days but we would need to balance what +would move the needle on AQ against undercutting our effort to get them to shift their strategic focus away from India.. +At the same time, we can be as forward leaning as possible in support of their counterinsurgency capabilities +(equipment, training, whatever material, intelligence and other assistance we can give them if they move into +Wazeristan -- including relief for displaced persons). If they finally take that step, we can do all that is possible to +demonstrate that our arrows are aligned with theirs.. +-- On the civilian side, their desire for greater control over how Kerry-Lugar money can be used can be played to our +strategic advantage. If we give them a greater sense that they are directing the use of these funds -- without greatly +undercutting their effectiveness -- it strengthens our position to press them on AQ. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760082 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760082 Date: 06/30/2015 +-- Finally, there is the defining relationship with India. Are there measures that the Indians could take that would reduce +Pakistani anxieties about the Indian front and thus better enable them to focus on threats to the East, including both AQ +and anti-Indian militant groups like LET? Are there confidence building measures such as information sharing on troop +movements that would both reduce uncertainty and support a Pakistani public narrative for a shift in emphasis from +India to the militancy? To the extent India seeks to have Pakistan move more vigorously against the militants, they could +see such steps as advancing their interests. This is tricky territory but may be worth pursuing. +Sandy +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760082 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +915,C05760084,RE:,pverveer,H,80,2009-11-01T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05760084/C05760084.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re:,'pvervee,H ,,"Sunday, November 1, 2009 10:13 AM",F-2014-20439,C05760084,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Melanne--thanks for all you're doing and say ""hello"" to everyone.

It is a unique partnership between governments of the +region, the G8, civil society representatives and private sector leaders to discuss +and exchange ideas on how to best work together to support progress and expand +opportunities for the people of the region. +The Forum for the Future was launched at the Sea Island G8 Summit in the United +States in June, 2004. During this summit, the G8 countries stressed their +commitment to promote progress in the BMENA region and to help establish an +environment conducive to an informal, flexible, open and inclusive dialogue. The +first Forum for the Future was held in Rabat in December 2004, co-hosted by The +Kingdom of Morocco and the United States. +In preparation for the 2009 ministerial, co-chairs Morocco and Italy along with +civil society partners convened three preparatory workshops across the region on: +economic reform (September 26-27, Beirut, Lebanon, in partnership with the +Organization for Civil Activities), political reform (October 5-6, Rabat, Morocco, +in partnership with the Moroccan Organization for Human Rights), and human +development (October 12-13, Doha, Qatar, in partnership with the National Human +Rights Committee and the Arab Democracy Foundation). +The BMENA Initiative complements the objectives outlined by President Obama +in his Cairo speech and is a natural partner for making progress in key areas — +notably economic opportunity, education, good governance, human rights, and +women's empowerment. BMENA's emphasis on cooperation among +governments, civil society and the private sector aligns with the President's vision +of partnership between the United States and countries in the region. The United +States will engage with leaders from the region on issues of common interest and +shared values, working together to infuse new energy into the partnership. In +particular, we believe our focus should be firmly on developing a path to +increasing opportunity for the youth of the region. +The Broader Middle East and North Africa participants include Afghanistan, +Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, Oman, +Pakistan, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Tunisia, United Arab Emirates, West Bank +and Gaza, and Yemen. +The G8 countries include Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, the +United Kingdom, and the United States. +For more information, visit: http://www.maec.gov.ma/future2009/en/defaulthtill +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760088 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760088 Date: 06/30/2015 +Drafted: E Pelton, x 74148 +Approved: NEA/FO: R Schlicher +NEA/FO: M Spirnak +Cleared: NEA/PPD: M Ratney ok +D: G Rana ok +P: C Lawson ok +S/P: G Behrman ok +NEA/PI: A Blayne-Allard ok +MAG/NEA: K Jones ok +SCA: D Ghosh ok +EUR: A Nardi ok +EEB: J Egan ok +DRL: J Barghout ok +PA/Clearances: ok +R: D Avendasora ok +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760088 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +919,C05760089,BROADER MIDDLE EAST AND NORTH AFRICA DEMOCRACY ASSITANCE DIALOGUE,,"NEA/PI/CE:Kiamie, Charles",28,,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05760089/C05760089.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05760089,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760089 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +Broader Middle East and North Africa +Democracy Assistance Dialogue +While many initiatives launched under the G8-Broader Middle East and North +Africa (BMENA) umbrella continue to make advances, the most striking progress +is in the Democracy Assistance Dialogue (DAD), which brings together NGOs and +governments in an ongoing basis to advance democratic reform in the region. +Representing a network of hundreds of BMENA NGOs and government +representatives, and with multilateral support, the DAD is now focused on in- +country activities that will implement reform recommendations from the Forum +deliberations.

This year's co-chairs, Italy and Morocco, and +civil-society groups selected political, economic, and social themes for discussion, +the latter of which includes issues such as education and the empowerment of +women.

Opening Session +The Forum's co-chairs, Moroccan Foreign Minister Fassi Fihri and Italian +Foreign Minister Frattini, will deliver opening remarks. You will then deliver +remarks for approximately 15-20 minutes. +Theme 1 — Political Reform / Local Governance and Democracy +The key to advancing and sustaining progress is action on the local level; civil +society groups and governments must develop effective working relationships +to benefit their citizens. While expanding the role of civil society is a long-term +effort between the citizens of the BMENA countries and their governments, we see +progress in some areas, including increased women's political participation, such +as in Morocco and Kuwait. The region's civil society continues to work toward +broadening the space for citizens to participate actively in public affairs, +particularly at the local level. Regrettably, some governments in the region have +sought to curtail the essential freedoms of expression and association. The United +States supports opening the political space for civil society to contribute ideas and +priorities to government policy-makers in shaping the future of the BMENA +countries. +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760093 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760093 Date: 06/30/2015 +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +- 2 - +HI. Theme 2 — Economic Reform / The Impact of the Financial Crisis on the +Economics of the BMENA Region +Sustainable progress requires opening spaces for innovation and creativity, +particularly for young people and women. Expanding opportunities for +entrepreneurs is key to addressing job creation, supporting economic development, +and furthering civic engagement. By assisting the growth of small and medium +enterprises (SMEs) through easing business regulations, enhancing transparency +and accountability, and improving access to financing, countries foster economic +growth and give society new sources of resilience. Additionally, educational +systems need to be responsive to labor-market needs. The United States supports +employment-focused approaches to education, as well as engagement with the +private sector to tackle comprehensively the obstacles that hinder economic growth +and development in the region. +IV. Theme S— Social Development: A New Perspective on Human Security +The United States supports sustainable development in all sectors of society. +Women's empowerment — political, economic, social, and cultural — is a +prerequisite for progress. Women across the region have been breaking silence +around many controversial issues, from breast cancer to domestic violence. We +applaud these efforts and will continue to support women who are working to raise +the levels of education, health, rights, and opportunity in their countries. +V. Closing Session +Concluding remarks will be delivered by the 2009 civil-society co-partners, +the Moroccan Organization for Human Rights and Italy's No Peace Without +Justice. Canada, as the next G8 president and Forum co-host in 2010, and the next +BMENA co-host will discuss plans and priorities for the 2010 Forum. After +Foreign Minister Frattini's closing remarks, Foreign Minister Fassi-Fihri will +present the Chair's Summary. The summary is traditionally drafted by the regional +co-chair and is not subject to negotiations, to avoid being bogged down in conflict. +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760093 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +922,C05760097,RE:,abedinh@state.gov,hrod17@clintonemail.com,80,2009-11-02T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05760097/C05760097.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re:,'abedinh@state.gov',H ,,"Monday, November 2, 2009 12:21 AM",F-2014-20439,C05760097,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Sorry--I'm up now so come when you are able.

I hope you have a productive trip to Pakistan. I wanted to let you know that Ambassador +Haqqani asked me to submit a proposal to help the Government of Pakistan strengthen its communications with the +Pakistani public. +You may recall that my firm did similar hands-on work in Lebanon. The idea is to enhance the Government's internal +capacity to raise public awareness of its accomplishments, build support for its policies, and demonstrate the benefits of +democratic governance. +With stronger communications, they'd obviously be in a better position to convey the benefits of the US-Pakistan +relationship. We've followed Pakistani media coverage of Kerry-Lugar -- with more strategic communications +management by the Government, that could have been a positive story. +(The anti-American forces have used the same messages to attack US aid packages for at least 10 years.

It is a very bizarre sense of autism."" +Lellouche, one of the most Anglophile members of Sarkozy's government, made his remarkable intervention after David +Cameron outlined a fresh Tory approach to the EU in the wake of +the full ratification of the Lisbon treaty. +A future Conservative government would seek to strengthen British sovereignty and repatriate a series of powers over +social and employment legislation, the Tory leader said. +Cameron said he was not seeking an immediate ""bust-up"" with the EU, and would allow the repatriation of powers +negotiations to last as long as five years. +But that position was not enough for the Tory MEP Daniel Hannan, who quit his role as the party's legal affairs +spokesman in Europe, saying he intended to fight for referendums to enable Britain to become ""self-governing"". +France's centre-right government condemned Cameron's plans, saying that they would marginalise Britain within the +EU. +Abandoning all diplomatic niceties, Lellouche said: ""It's pathetic. It's just very sad to see Britain, so important in Europe, +just cutting itself out from the rest and disappearing from the radar map .... This is a culture of opposition ... It is the +result of a long period of opposition. I know they will come back, but I hope the trip will be short."" He said Cameron's +approach was in line with the Tories' decision to abandon the main centre-right EPP grouping in the European +parliament, of which Sarkozy's UMP party is a member. +""They are doing what they have done in the European parliament. They have essentially castrated your UK influence in +the European parliament,"" he said. +Lellouche said he has told Hague personally that his position was a ""waste of time for all of us"". +""I have told William Hague: go away for two to three years, in your political economic situation you're going to be all by +your self and you'll come back. Go ahead and do it. That is my message to them ... You want to be marginalised? Well, +you go for it. But it's a waste of time for all of us,"" the French minister said. +Lellouche made clear the Tories had no hope of securing support for their plans. ""It's not going to happen for a minute. +Nobody is going to indulge in rewriting [treaties for] many, many years. Nobody is going to play with the institutions +again. It's going to be take it or leave it and they should be honest and say that,"" he said. ""It is a time of tumultuous +waters all around us. Wars, terrorism, proliferation, Afghanistan, energy with Russia, massive immigration, economic +crisis. It is time when the destiny of Europe is being defined — whether or not we will exist as a third of the world's GDP +capable of fighting it out on climateion trade, on every ... issue on the surface of the Earth. +""We need to be united, otherwise we will be wiped out and marginalised. None of us can do it alone. Whether you're big +or small, the lesson is the same. And [Britain's] risk is one of marginalisation. Irrelevance."" He explained: ""Finally we have +institutional package, but it took 15 years of looking at our navel and getting everybody bored to death with sterile +debate"" +In a sign of France's determination to resist the Tory plans to opt out of key EU legislation, Lellouche warned the French +would attempt to reduce Britain's EU budget rebate which will be up for negotiation during the next parliament. +He pointed out that France is a net EU contributor to the tune of €5bn (E4.5bn), unlike Britain which receives a rebate. +""If we get a government that is ferociously anti European that will vote down this kind of legislation then I think the +relationship is going to be very difficult.

You may have vaguely assumed there was a Deputy United States Trade +Representative, and an Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs, and an ambassador to Brazil, but +never thought much of them or what they do. +But ask American CEOs and business leaders who they turn to in Washington for help getting a fair shake in foreign +markets or untying global trade knots, and you will learn that these are the very officials they rely on. Yet today, when +every export dollar and trade-supported job is essential to America's economic recovery, these key positions sit empty. +And, surprisingly, these five seats are empty because of stalls and behind-the-scenes maneuvers by Senate Republicans +— usually key allies of U.S. business. +In each case, the names went up months ago. The nominees have strong credentials and many have demonstrated +strong bipartisan support. The reasons for the holds and delays vary. But even if the blocking actions are unrelated, +collectively they deny American businesses their most effective overseas advocates. +•Miriam Sapiro, who was unanimously approved by the Finance Committee in July to be Deputy United States Trade +Representative with responsibility for trade agreements and enforcement with Europe and the Americas (including +NAFTA), has a one-man hold by Sen. Jim Bunning (R-Ky.) over a Canadian tobacco bill. +•Arturo Valenzuela, nominee for Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere, was overwhelmingly approved by +the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in July, but Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) has a one-man hold on Valenzuela as a +protest against the administration's Honduras policy. +•Thomas Shannon, nominee for ambassador to Brazil, is also being blocked by Sen. DeMint over Honduras. Shannon is +hardly political, but is a career foreign service officer who was President Bush's top official for Latin America at the NSC +and then the State Department. +•Francisco Sanchez, nominated in April to be Under Secretary of Commerce for International Trade, responsible for +advancing U.S. export and trade opportunities around the world. Republican staff under Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) on +the Finance Committee have repeatedly delayed a hearing. +•Lael Brainard, nominated in March to be Under Secretary of Treasury for International Affairs, is also being held up by +the Republican staff on the Finance Committee. With an empty chair in this powerful position — it was previously held +by future Treasury Secretaries Timothy Geithner and Lawrence Summers — our ability to coordinate a response to the +financial crisis is hampered at a time when we can't afford it. +Who is hurt by these holds and staff delays? Certainly the president, who is facing the worst economic crisis in 50 years, +a stalled trade agenda, and economic and political turmoil in many parts of Latin America, including the hot-button crisis +in Honduras. +But U.S. businesses are also hurt. When American companies find themselves in commercial or trade disputes abroad, or +face unfair competition from foreign companies or discriminatory practices from regulators, they turn directly to the +roster above. With all these chairs empty, U.S. businesses with problems abroad find themselves facing a classic +Goldilocks problem — the Cabinet secretaries above are too big (and too busy), and the officials below are too small to +have an impact at the right levels. +Moreover, the international economic issues of greatest interest to U.S. businesses are precisely the ones that are being +hampered by these vacancies: balanced and coordinated growth out of the Great Recession, promotion of job- +generating U.S. exports, delayed trade agreements with Colombia and Panama, barriers into Brazil's huge market, trade +tensions with Canada (our largest trading partner) and security and border issues with Mexico (our second-largest), +among many others. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760158 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760158 Date: 07/31/2015 +And while all U.S. business interests overseas are affected by these vacancies, it is our business and political interests in +the Americas that are being hit most directly, because of the responsibilities and expertise of the five nominees. +Predictably, this lamentable situation is renewing cries from our neighbors that even under a promising new president, +they continue to be neglected. And as importantly, our ability to help shape political and economic events in our +hemisphere to advance U.S. interests is suffering greatly. Who wins when we can't act? Our foreign competitors; not +just foreign companies, but Hugo Chavez and his anti-democratic allies. +All this is not to cast blame on the United States Senate, which has a constitutional duty to provide ""advice and consent"" +on presidential nominations (though it may cause one to question the tradition that permits a single senator to put an +indefinite hold on a nominee). Nor is it to cast blame solely on Republican members or staff. Democratic senators and +their staffs used these same parliamentary maneuvers under Republican presidents. +But it is to say that those who engage in those tactics now — at a time of global economic crisis and with growing +financial, trade and political frictions in our own hemisphere — should be reminded of the harm done to important U.S. +interests. In the days after 9/11, the Democratically-controlled Senate moved swiftly to confirm the U.N. ambassador +and other stalled security-related posts. Today's circumstances are not the same by any means, but as we confront the +worst economic crisis in over 50 years, these are surely no ordinary times. +The time has come for the Senate to carry out its constitutional duty and to end the delays on these five key commerce +and trade nominations.

""The Chinese were very upset,"" says Elizabeth Baghley, who heads Mrs Clinton's office for +global partnerships. ""When she came back from China she said: 'Whatever it takes, this matters to China and to US +business and we are going to get this done'."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760164 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760164 Date: 06/30/2015 +The task was more arduous than expected. Unlike all the other participants in what is expected to be the largest trade +fair in history, the US administration is barred by federal law from spending a single public dollar on global trade fairs. +Mrs Clinton, who has extensive experience at fundraising as a presidential and senatorial candidate, was also prevented +from asking for money herself. +The bureaucratic obstacles were made worse by the fact the Chinese had already tapped large US companies, such as +Cisco and Coca-Cola, to spend money on their own corporate pavilions, which will face their national counterparts +across the river around the fair in Shanghai. The situation was retrieved when three companies - Chevron, GE and +PepsiCo - were persuaded to put up $5m (€3.4m, £3m) each. So far $46m has been pledged. +Mrs Clinton's emphasis on getting a US pavilion contrasted strongly with the attitude of the Bush administration. Some +even referred disparagingly to the ""Chi-comms"" - an old-fashioned abbreviation for Chinese communists.

""We're prepared to start +peace talks immediately,"" the notoriously reluctant Israeli Prime Minister proclaimed, with U.S. Secretary of State Hillary +Clinton standing at his side, poker-faced. ""I think we should ... get on it and get with it."" +It was a ploy, of course. The Palestinians were tangled up in themselves, yet again. They had elections looming, and their +leader, Mahmoud Abbas, had to hang tough: he was demanding a total freeze to Israeli settlement-building on the West +Bank — which was precisely what the Obama Administration had previously said it favored. Netanyahu was offering a +partial freeze, not including new settlements in East Jerusalem, the desired capital of a future Palestinian state. This was +a nonstarter for the Palestinians, but it had the holographic glow of a step forward. It was an ""unprecedented"" offer, +Netanyahu trumpeted, with the joy of a chess master springing a trap.(See photos from 60 years of Israel.) +It was a tough moment for Clinton, playing second fiddle at the Bibi-does-Gandhi show. President Barack Obama had +softened his language on the settlements a few weeks earlier: instead of a total freeze, he had talked about Israeli +""restraint"" in settlement-building. And now Clinton seemed to cement the Administration's retreat, agreeing that +Netanyahu's proposal was, indeed, ""unprecedented,"" even though the U.S. still favored a total freeze. The most +important thing, she added, was for the parties to get to the table as quickly as possible. The onus was back on the +Palestinians — and the Palestinians quickly expressed outrage at the Obama Administration's retreat. Their Arab +neighbors soon joined in, causing Clinton to backtrack two days later, telling reporters the Israeli plan ""falls far short"" of +U.S. expectations, although she still insisted on calling it ""unprecedented,"" which was neither diplomatic nor wise. +Suddenly the Obama Administration seemed wobbly on the Middle East; clearly, Clinton had been too bullish on +Netanyahu's proposal (which had been negotiated over months with Middle East envoy George Mitchell and was seen, +privately, by the Americans as real progress). But the Administration's mission was to get the parties into peace talks +without preconditions. The Israelis were now in favor of talks. The Palestinians were setting preconditions. And Clinton +had violated an essential rule of her job: boring is almost always better.(See photos from the life and career of former +Secretary of State Madeleine Albright.) +Clinton's Three Qualities +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 +For the past 40 years, the awkward Middle East press conference has helped define the job of Secretary of State. You go +to Jerusalem or Ramallah; you stand there ""guardedly optimistic"" in public; in private, you try to move a comma, but the +Israelis or Palestinians move a semicolon to block your comma. The result is almost always the same: gridlock. The +breakthroughs, when they come, emanate from others. Walter Cronkite asks Anwar Sadat if he'd be willing to go to +Jerusalem ... and Sadat, to everyone's surprise, says yes. The Israelis and Palestinians hold secret meetings in Oslo and +reach what appears to be a breakthrough — they're talking! — which then becomes another dead end. +The job of Secretary of State is more thankless than glamorous; in some ways, the Department of State, a noble antique, +is still trying to come to terms with the invention of the telephone. In an era when Twitter haiku-messaging rules, +diplomacy moves at the speed, and requires the nuanced complexity, of literature. Power has drifted from State to the +National Security Council and the Pentagon, especially in wartime. Only a few of Clinton's recent predecessors have +distinguished themselves. Henry Kissinger, a National Security Adviser who belatedly became Secretary of State, was +Richard Nixon's schizophrenic alter ego; George Shultz was a strong policy voice in the Reagan Administration; James +Baker had clout because he was George H.W. Bush's best friend and a world-class dealmaker. Most of the others have +been frustrated or forgettable. And yet this is Hillary Clinton we're talking about — the second most popular American in +the world, an eternally compelling and supremely talented character, the subject of constant speculation, a walking +headline. Her very presence in the job makes it crucial once more. +It is a cliché to say that by naming Clinton, Obama brought his most popular potential opponent into the tent. The +conventional wisdom, too cynical by half, is that he thereby succeeded in neutering her, a theory bolstered by Clinton's +reticence during her first nine months on the job, with special envoys like Mitchell and Richard Holbrooke doing the +heavy lifting of diplomacy. But by naming Clinton, Obama also gave her great power, which cuts both ways: if she +becomes dissatisfied with her role or the Administration's policies, she can become a torpedo aimed at the Oval Office. +Colin Powell had similar power and a real gripe — the Iraq war — but never used it. Clinton has no such gripe, but as the +Obama Administration settles in and policy differences begin to emerge among the key players, the Powell conundrum +looms: How will Clinton choose to use her power? How will Obama react if and when she does? +Traditionally, the Secretary of State is judged on his or her ability to formulate policy, negotiate deals and manage the +striped-pants bureaucracy. Clinton has no history as a global strategist, although her performance in the 2008 campaign +indicates that she is a bit more conservative than the President, more the foreign policy realist than the Wilsonian +idealist. It is also too early to judge her skill as a manager or negotiator — although her performance in Jerusalem +indicates that she needs a few lessons in Middle East Haggling 101. +There are, however, three qualities that could make her a memorable Secretary of State. She brings a vision of +departmental reform — the need to elevate foreign aid programs to the same status and rigorous scrutiny as diplomacy +— that could change striped pants into chinos in the developing world. She is also the first elected politician to hold the +office since Edmund Muskie briefly did during the Carter Administration, which has enabled her to better understand +and interact with the politicians who run places like Afghanistan and Pakistan. But most important, she is an +international celebrity with a much higher profile than any of her recent predecessors and the ability — second only to +the President's — to change negative attitudes about the U.S. abroad. +She has the potential to become the most powerful public diplomat the U.S. has fielded in quite some time, although +her performance so far, at home and abroad, has occasionally been perplexing. At home, she has often seemed +tentative and deferential. In a conversation with Secretary of Defense Robert Gates aired by CNN in early October, +Clinton's cautious formality took a backseat to Gates' brisk, humorous confidence on policy issues. Abroad, she seems +far more confident, at times to the point of recklessness, as in Jerusalem. (See photos of the last days of Hillary Clinton's +campaign.) +Independence and Candor +In the last week of October, Secretary Clinton moved squarely to the center of the world stage, attempting, at the +behest of her special envoys, to improve the rocky alliance with Pakistan and nudge the Middle East pugilists into talks. +In the course of the trip, there were the first stray wisps of a hint that Clinton wanted to begin asserting her +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 +independence, as the Administration, facing roadblocks across the world, struggled for a firmer foreign policy tone after +an opening nine months that might be called the Rodney King — ""Can't we all just get along?"" — phase. +During her three days in Pakistan, she ran a gauntlet of town-hall meetings and media interviews that may have been +unprecedented, to use the word of the week, for a U.S. Secretary of State. The trip, planned by Holbrooke and Pakistan +specialist Vali Nasr, offered an unusually subtle itinerary for a U.S. diplomatic mission. A visit to a Sufi mosque that had +been bombed by Sunni extremists, for example, sent a powerful message to Pakistan's moderate Islamic majority. ""We +saw her praying there,"" an academic named Shala Aziz told me, ""and, for the first time, I'm thinking, The Americans have +hearts.""(See photos of the suicide bombings in Islamabad.) +The big news was that Clinton allowed herself to be hammered with hostile questions from students, talk-show hosts +and Pashtun elders — and that, on occasion, she pushed back, raising incredibly sensitive issues, like why no one in the +Pakistani government knew where Osama bin Laden was, even though he had been in the country since 2002. Press +accounts either emphasized the embarrassment of a Secretary of State's getting pummeled or fixed on Clinton's +undiplomatic bluntness. But they missed the point: her candor, her willingness to listen to and acknowledge criticism, +had begun to undermine the prevailing Pakistani image of the U.S. as arrogant and bossy, more interested in having the +Pakistani military fight its war against al-Qaeda and the Taliban than in having a true strategic partnership. The contrast +was especially sharp after George W. Bush's eight years of unqualified support for the military dictatorship of Pervez +Musharraf. ""In the past, when the Americans came, they would talk to the generals and go home,"" said Farahnaz +Ispahani, a government spokeswoman and Member of Parliament. ""Clinton's willingness to meet with everyone, hostile +or not, has made a big impression — and because she's Hillary Clinton, with a real history of affinity for this country, it +means so much more."" +Transformative Experience +There are no toasts at state dinners in Pakistan, because there is no alcohol. There are opening statements, though, and +Clinton's — delivered impromptu on the first night of her trip after tossing aside her notes — was surprisingly emotional. +Earlier in the day, President Asif Ali Zardari, the widower of Benazir Bhutto, had presented the Secretary with an album +of photos from her first visit to Pakistan, in 1995, and a framed photo of Bhutto and her two sons with Clinton and +daughter Chelsea. ""It did bring tears to my eyes,"" Clinton said at the state dinner in her honor at the presidential palace, +""because I so admired your wife. She gave her life ..."" She faltered then, choking up, but quickly pulled herself together, +talking about the ""reasons why we do what we do — to provide opportunities for all."" +Clinton's first trip to Pakistan as First Lady in 1995 had been a transformative experience for her — the beginning, I +believe, of the process that made her a plausible candidate for Secretary of State. I traveled with her on that trip; when +we set off, she seemed depressed and even more private than usual. The Democrats had cratered in the 1994 +congressional elections, and she had been trounced in her efforts to enact a universal health care plan. It was a very +personal defeat; as Clinton traveled the country trying to sell the plan, crowds shouted her down and cursed her. +Privately she admitted she was shocked by the hatred. The trip to South Asia seemed a bit of a vacation — it was +Chelsea's spring break — but also a retreat to a more demure, First Lady–like role after two years as health care policy +czar, although it proceeded in a decidedly wonky, Hillarian fashion. Jackie Kennedy had gone to India and famously +ridden an elephant; Hillary Clinton traveled to five countries and packed her schedule with visits to NG0s. +""That was the greatest trip, just unbelievable,"" Clinton says now. We were sitting in her hotel suite the day after her +Jerusalem gaffe, the Secretary in an electric-blue shift rather than her usual formal jacket and pants. She was wearing +glasses and appeared rather freckly without her makeup. ""I guess that trip has animated and informed everything I've +done since,"" she said. She emerged from the trip reinvigorated, with a new mission. By the end of 1995, at the U.N. +Conference on Women in Beijing, the First Lady had propounded a new Clinton Doctrine: ""Women's rights are human +rights.""(See photos of Beijing's changing skyline.) +Clinton is not an easy interview. She is preternaturally cautious, a consequence of her Methodist propriety and 20 years +of insane public scrutiny. She does not like to talk about herself, but she did tell me one interesting story about Bhutto. +When her husband was governor of Arkansas, she and Bill and Chelsea visited London and stood on the sidewalk outside +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 +Bhutto's hotel, waiting for the then Pakistani Prime Minister to arrive. ""She was wearing a yellow embroidered shalwar +kameez with a chiffon scarf. I was just a fan, standing on the sidewalk with everyone else. It was the only time I ever did +anything like that,"" Clinton says. +When Clinton and Bhutto met formally, on the first day of the 1995 trip, they hit it off immediately, in part because +Bhutto was also obsessed with the impact the Islamist tide was having on women and children. I remember asking +Bhutto that day what the biggest change in her country had been over the past 25 years, and she said, ""I used to be able +to walk down the street wearing jeans, without a headscarf. Now I can't."" When I asked her why, she said — bluntly — +""The Saudis,"" who had been aggressively funding religious schools. Of course, Bhutto's acquiescence to, and +participation in, the general corruption of the Pakistani government was part of the reason public schools were so +inadequate and madrasahs became popular. (See photos from the aftermath of Benazir Bhutto's assassination in 2007.) +Ironically, the rise of Sunni extremist groups like al-Qaeda has brought Clinton's interests — microfinance, education and +health care — to the center of national-security policy for the first time. The impetus came not from the State +Department but from the military, where counterinsurgency doctrine demanded that social services in war zones — +schools, justice, economic development — reinforce the military's efforts to secure the population. As a result, there +was immediate chemistry between Clinton and General David Petraeus, author of the Army's counterinsurgency +manual, who became one of her prime military mentors when she served on the Senate Armed Services Committee. At +one point, well before Obama made his presidential intentions known, I asked Petraeus if there was any potential +Democratic candidate who understood how his mind worked, and he said, ""You mean, aside from Hillary?"" +It was Clinton who brought together Petraeus and Holbrooke (""my two alpha males,"" she calls them) for the first time — +at her home in Washington on the Friday before the Obama Inauguration. The affection and respect she gained for the +military while serving in the Senate has helped make the relationship between State and the Pentagon less fraught than +usual — although Defense Secretary Gates' insistence on the need for bigger State Department budgets hasn't hurt. In +fact, relations with the Pentagon have gone smoother, at times, than Clinton's relationship with the White House staff. +Clinton was particularly irritated by the ridiculously strict vetting process that thwarted her favored candidate for USAID +director, Paul Farmer, from getting the job. ""It was all sorts of niggling things,"" says a Clinton adviser, ""like, Farmer had +at one point brought more than $10,000 in cash into Haiti. The money was for a needle-exchange program, but the +amount was illegal."" +Another of Clinton's military mentors, retired General Jack Keane, once told me, ""I'm a Republican. I disagree with her +about practically everything, but she'd make a hell of a Commander in Chief."" There is a palpable toughness to the +woman, a hard edge that contrasts with the President's instinctive impulse toward conciliation. One of the sharpest +exchanges of the presidential campaign came when Obama accused Clinton of echoing the ""bluster"" of George W. Bush +after she said the U.S. would be able to ""obliterate"" Iran if it used nuclear weapons against Israel. Clinton's edgier tone +has been evident from the start of the Administration: she took a sharper position than the President on an Israeli +settlement freeze by claiming, in May, that Obama wanted ""to see a stop to settlements. Not some settlements, not +outposts, not natural-growth exceptions."" And then, in Jerusalem, her use of the word unprecedented seemed a +rhetorical leap beyond the No Drama ground rules.(Read ""Clinton's Collateral Damage."") +The White House was not entirely thrilled with either statement. But then the White House staff is several steps +removed from a negotiating process. The Palestinians are weak and divided. The Israelis have been difficult, as always: +whenever Mitchell raises East Jerusalem in talks with the Israeli Foreign Minister, the Israeli stands up and walks out of +the room. Despite Netanyahu's momentary, tactical enthusiasm for peace talks, his Likud Party has always favored the +de facto incorporation of Palestinian lands into the state of Israel. +Hillary's Choice +The tensions between the White House and State raise a fascinating question going forward. Obama and Clinton are in +substantive agreement on the President's diplomacy-first philosophy and on most policy issues — although neither is +willing to disclose the content of their private conversations — but style often predicts substance in foreign policy; +neither Obama's gauziness nor Clinton's inconsistent bluntness overseas seems particularly solid. There is a growing +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 +perception that the Administration's policies have been thwarted across the board: Afghanistan is a mess, Iran seems +ready to scuttle the nuclear negotiations, there's no progress in the Middle East, the Syrians and North Koreans remain +recalcitrant, the Russians have been offered a freebie on missile defense, and the Chinese have been given a pass on +human rights with no apparent quid pro quos. +The White House argues that some progress has been made: Iran is on the defensive, and North Korea has said it will +return to the six-party talks. Clinton argues, correctly, about the need for ""strategic patience."" But the only thing Obama +really has to show for his efforts so far is a Nobel Prize for Potential and — no small thing — the wisdom to have +refrained from doing anything so wildly stupid as invading Iraq. The President has been willing to use military force — +the Predator drones that have decimated al-Qaeda's leadership testify to his lack of squeamishness — but this +Administration is supposed to be about the efficacy of using subtler expressions of U.S. power. That doesn't happen +overnight, but for Obama's policies to be considered a success, it has to happen sooner or later, in a way that can be +explained to the public. +There is also a growing sense that the President's inexperience is beginning to show — not in his overall policy, which +represents the views of a broad, moderate national-security consensus ranging from Brent Scowcroft to John Kerry, but +in his execution of the details. The Afghan strategy review has been too public and taken too long; the Middle East peace +hunt has become a wild goose chase. A letter to Iran's Supreme Leader is a productive gesture only if it gets a response; +if it doesn't, it seems weak and supplicatory. A call for the Israelis to freeze settlements is effective only if it is +accompanied by the credible threat of a reduction in aid. ""You can't be seen pushing countries around — demanding +[that] Israel freeze settlements, demanding that Hamid Karzai reform his government — and not get results,"" says Leslie +H. Gelb, author of Power Rules. ""The leaders of these countries are tough, successful politicians, and they'll begin to take +you less seriously."" (See photos from the 1979 revolution in Iran.) +Clinton is unwilling to acknowledge these problems, and her staff is loath to admit her occasional mistakes. Her praise +for the President is fulsome, and aides say the relationship with Obama really — really — is strong. But there are also +burblings and emanations from Clinton's staff and friends, Foggy Bottom body language, that suggest there is a need for +the Administration to produce a second act after the Rodney King phase. And the White House is perplexed by the +uncharacteristic lack of discipline indicated by Clinton's occasional overseas gaffes. +These tensions are well within the boundaries of normal, creative policymaking. There is absolutely no indication that +the Secretary is frustrated to the point of jumping ship — or returning to politics as a candidate for governor of New +York, as has been rumored. Quite the contrary, she seems intent on making history as Secretary of State. To do that, +though, she will have to have the same authority at home as she has abroad. She will have to become the President's +primary foreign policy voice. Over the first nine months of the Obama Administration, seven different Obama officials +have spoken on the Sunday talk shows about foreign policy. Clinton has been on each of the Sunday shows once. ""Either +you have one person sending the foreign policy message, with the clear approval of the President,"" says a former +Republican Secretary of State, ""or there is no message.""(See photos from eight months of Obama's diplomacy.) +Aides to Obama say they would like to see her on the Sunday shows more often. (Indeed, Clinton's staff acknowledged +that she was asked to appear two additional times but was traveling and unable to do so.) Ultimately, though, television +is a metaphor for the larger questions that need to be resolved: How much can these former rivals — both extremely +guarded and private people — really trust each other; and, if not Clinton, who will emerge as the President's alter ego +on foreign policy? At this point, the strongest member of Obama's national-security team is Gates — but he's a +Republican and an unlikely spokesman or presidential confidant on anything beyond Pentagon issues. General Jim Jones +has settled in as National Security Adviser, but he's not a political animal — and every President needs a close foreign +policy adviser who understands the intersection of long-term strategy, politics and diplomatic chess. +Clinton's value to the Administration was clear in Pakistan. She wowed a public so skeptical that it had been questioning +the $7.5 billion in purely economic and humanitarian aid the Administration had promised. ""How much damage control +have you been able to do on this trip?"" asked Meher Bokhari, a television-news-show host, at the end of Clinton's +meeting with Pakistani women. The Secretary seemed nonplussed by the bluntness of the question. ""I don't know,"" she +said. ""I hope some."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 +Afterward, I asked Bokhari to answer her own question. ""Well, this trip was long overdue,"" she said. ""The Pakistani +people really needed to talk to an American about our concerns — the strings attached to aid programs, the drone +attacks, their history of support for the military dictatorship. And it needs to be followed up. But if you ask me about the +damage control"" — she paused, thinking it through — ""I'd have to say a lot. She accomplished a lot."" +In the end, though, Clinton's success will be determined by whether she can expand her role beyond public diplomat. +She will have to become a more sure-handed negotiator and, most important, a trusted adviser to a President who +knows where he wants to go in the world but hasn't quite figured out how to get there. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760165 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +970,C05760166,TROOPS,JilotyLC@state.gov,H,80,2009-10-08T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/10_11_15_16/DOC_0C05760166/C05760166.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05760166,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"pis print. +H +Thursday, October 8, 2009 7:15 AM +'JilotyLC@state.gov' +Fw: Troops","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760166 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +pis print. +H +Thursday, October 8, 2009 7:15 AM +'JilotyLC@state.gov' +Fw: Troops +Original Message +From: Mark J.

There were a few ineffective puffs of fire from Taliban anti-aircraft guns which +could do nothing against the bombs and missiles raining down on them. +It was a strange war to cover, not least because so little real fighting took place. The reputation of the Afghan fighting +man is partly based on agilely joining the winning side at the right moment. In the meantime they don't fight too hard +for anybody and try to avoid getting killed. +The US and British press mostly reported the war of 2001 as a real military conflict and rather missed the point that the +Taliban had just gone home. I remember visiting the former headquarters of a Taliban armoured brigade in the city of +Ghazni south west of Kabul. The tanks and armoured vehicles had all been smashed to pieces by American bombs, but +when I asked local people how many men the Taliban had lost, I was told ""none at all. They could see what was going to +happen so they just ran away."" +Just as the US military victory of 2001 was overstated, so eight years later is the sense of military crisis which is being +busily stoked by Gen Stanley A McChrystal, the top US and NATO commander in Afghanistan. In Washington military +officials are quoted as saying that the war will be won or lost in the next twelve months. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760173 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760173 Date: 06/30/2015 +This is nonsense. The Taliban have been able to advance so rapidly in the last three years because they have Pakistani +backing and because of the spectacular political and military weakness of President Hamid Karzai's government. But the +Taliban draw all their strength from the Pashtun community, which makes up 42 per cent of the Afghan population. +They will have great difficulty advancing into areas occupied by the other 58 per cent of the population where there is a +Tajik, Hazara or Uzbek majority. +Squads of six or eight Taliban on motorcycles might be harassing the roads around Kabul, but there is no need to treat +them as if they were North Vietnamese divisions at the gates of Saigon in 1975. +The strength of the Taliban is that not that they can take and hold territory, but that they can inflict quite small military +losses on the US which are politically unacceptable back home. They can do this through roadside bombs, something the +US army speaks as if it were a new device, though it was being used against the British army in Ireland in 1921. If the +Americans and British try to hold territory supposedly cleared of Taliban with penny packets of troops then these are +vulnerable to being suddenly targeted by the other side. +It is to prevent this happening that Gen McChrystal has asked for an extra 40,000 soldiers. But Afghans tell me that more +foreign troops will simply mean more violence and dead Afghans as more of the country becomes a battlefield. It is +absurd to imagine that the world's most heavily equipped military force is not going to use its weapons when it comes +under attack. Polls also show that Taliban support is at its height in just those areas where Afghan civilians have been +killed by American shells and bombs. +So what should Obama do? First of all he has time. He is not going to win or lose the war in the next year. Like it or not +he is stuck with Mr Karzai and he should get used to the idea. It is reasonable to suggest helping to produce a larger +Afghan army and police force but this cannot be done overnight. Most military recruits are there for the money and are +too malnourished even to wear American flack jackets. Speeding up security training f or Afghan police meant over the +summer that terrified men, often on heroin, were being sent to man dangerous and isolated police posts with just three +weeks training. Many of them did not come back. +One way Obama could strengthen the Afghan army and police is to make sure their men are paid properly. In Kabul +many facilities are being guarded by policemen earning $70 a month, which is not enough to live on unless +supplemented with bribes. This contrasts with $250,000 a year paid to foreign consultants who lurk inside heavily +defended compounds. Paying the Iraqi army properly really did make a difference in Baghdad and might do the same in +Afghanistan where 40 per cent of men are unemployed. A difference is that Iraqi oil revenues last year were $62 billion +while the Afghan government is dependent on foreign aid. +The US and its allies will have to pay. It is carefully thought out measures like this that Obama should be considering and +not the panicky dispatch of US Special Forces or tens of thousand of more troops. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760173 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +977,C05760174,TO CLARIFY,abedinh@state.gov,H,80,2009-11-05T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/AddBacks/DOC_0C05760174/C05760174.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: to clarify,'abedinh@state.gov'; 'ValmoroU@state.gov',H ,,"Thursday, November 5, 2009 3:35 PM",F-2014-20439,C05760174,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,POTUS is running late so Katie will tell us when to come back--not before 4:10.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760174 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: H +Sent: Thursday, November 5, 2009 3:35 PM +To: 'abedinh@state.gov'; 'ValmoroU@state.gov' +Subject: Re: to clarify +POTUS is running late so Katie will tell us when to come back--not before 4:10. +Original Message +From: Abedin, Huma +To: H +Sent: Thu Nov 05 14:53:372009 +Subject: to clarify +We didn't think you would come back. +3pm Botswana +4pm Weekly with potus +5pm Weekly PC +Then you come back +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760174 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +978,C05760176,WHI - POWDER COATING,JilotyLC@state.gov,H,80,2009-10-08T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/10_11_15_16/DOC_0C05760176/C05760176.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05760176,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Pis print. +H +Thursday, October 8, 2009 8:01 PM +'JilotyLC@state.gov' +Fw: WHI - powder coating +B6","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760176 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +Pis print. +H +Thursday, October 8, 2009 8:01 PM +'JilotyLC@state.gov' +Fw: WHI - powder coating +B6 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760176 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760176 Date: 06/30/2015 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760176 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +979,C05760179,MEMO: BERLIN SPEECHES.

The gate is +open, Europe is open, and our future together is open. +In the forty years from the Berlin airlift to the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Atlantic partnership proved itself the most +successful alliance for freedom in history. That alliance was, is and shall be the crowning achievement of American +foreign policy. And the German – American relationship has always served as its foundation. Our alliance represents the +reconciliation of former enemies, an inspiration to other peoples and continents devastated by war and hatred, and it +must never be taken for granted. +In the twenty years since the fall of the wall we have created architecture for an enduring peace. Instead of a wall we +have built a gateway to the future. President Kennedy said in 1963 that in the future free men everywhere will say, ""Ich +bin emn Berliner."" Today Berlin has gained a new and even more powerful meaning. Forever into the future, the opening +of this Gate will be the symbol of the return of the dream of freedom, not only to Berlin and Germany, but to the entire +world. +The Gate, we must remember, was not built as a symbol of freedom. And each of the tyrannies that used the Gate as a +symbol believed it represented their eternal power. The Gate was first erected as a symbol against the French +Revolution; then it became a symbol of the imperial ambitions of Napoleon who marched his army through. It was a +symbol of Prussian militarism and monarchy. It was seized by the Nazi Party as the symbol of its 1000 year rule. And +then it became a symbol of the Communist totalitarianism that built a wall to separate the people of Berlin as though +freedom could be contained in only one part of the city. Here, in Berlin, the Cold War was coldest. +We celebrate the fact that the wall that marred this proud city was taken down by the world's most enthusiastic +wrecking crew. The United States always believed in the freedom of Berlin because we believed in the future of +freedom. The courageous citizens of East Germany, Poland and other nations of the Communist bloc demonstrated their +dedication to free and peaceful solution of conflicts through their stand against dictatorship. America stood resolutely as +an ally at every moment of this struggle and moved swiftly to help the peoples of Europe reunite after 1989. +We celebrate the steadiness of purpose, the restraint and respect for ultimate goals that allowed the Cold War to end in +peace. For how the victory was won was essential to the triumph. 1989 was special. It was that rarest of historical +events: a revolution that did not descend into violence. As a result the Gate survives not as a cautionary monument to +history's darkest moments but to its brightest. Today we celebrate the revolution of 1989, the turning point that +transformed the Brandenburg Gate into the symbol of the hope of democracy and the promise of freedom. +Berliner Luft, the air of Berlin, has always been unique. I can feel and smell the spirit of freedom in your streets. The +great American poet Carl Sandburg called Berlin the Chicago of Europe. Chicago is where I was born and raised. I can +sense the same energy, openness and dedication to hard work in both great cities. Another Chicagoan, President Barack +Obama, was drawn to Berlin last July, a city that he said made him feel like a citizen of the world and a citizen of the +future. +I was very proud to visit our new Embassy at the Brandenburg Gate, located exactly where the Wall used to run. Our +presence here will forever underscore our determination that the spark of freedom from this city in 1989 will help light +the torches of freedom throughout the world. +The revolution of 1989 did not mark the end of history. Having made history together, we are summoned to secure +freedom for future generations. As vital at the beginning of the 21st century as it was in the last half of the 20th, the +Western alliance is called to new tasks. The dreams of 1989 reached far—and have farther to reach. Old hatreds and +conflicts—in the Balkins, the Caucauses, in the Middle East, East Asia, and Africa—still simmer. We have much to +demonstrate what we have learned from the last century. Without freedom, without the rule of law, without the +opportunity for people to support themselves and their families – without basic human rights-- anger, aggression and +violence will prevail. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760179 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760179 Date: 06/30/2015 +Today we are faced with difficult and often dangerous conflicts arising not from conflicts between nations but within +them, conflicts exploited by zealots who make the false claim that violence will purify the world and open the gates of +heaven. Once zealots tried to use this Gate to symbolize that message.

The long twilight +struggle to tear down this wall to make Europe whole and free inspires us, in this new century, to help other peoples +gain the same measure of security, respect and progress. +We need Berlin more than ever today. We need your courage, your fortitude, your commitment to the rights of men— +and women—we need your example. We are hardly at the end of the history of the West. Standing here, where a wall +once stood but is no more, in the light from the Gate, we have learned from history's deepest lessons.

The gate is open, Europe is open, and our future together is +open. +In the forty years from the Berlin airlift to the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Atlantic partnership +proved itself the most successful alliance for freedom in history.

President Kennedy said in 1963 that in +the future free men everywhere will say, ""Ich bin emn Berliner."" Today Berlin has gained a new +and even more powerful meaning. Forever into the future, the opening of this Gate will be the +symbol of the return of the dream of freedom, not only to Berlin and Germany, but to the entire +world. +The Gate, we must remember, was not built as a symbol of freedom. And each of the tyrannies +that used the Gate as a symbol believed it represented their eternal power. The Gate was first +erected as a symbol against the French Revolution; then it became a symbol of the imperial +ambitions of Napoleon who marched his army through. It was a symbol of Prussian militarism +and monarchy. It was seized by the Nazi Party as the symbol of its 1000 year rule. And then it +became a symbol of the Communist totalitarianism that built a wall to separate the people of +Berlin as though freedom could be contained in only one part of the city. Here, in Berlin, the +Cold War was coldest. +We celebrate the fact that the wall that marred this proud city was taken down by the world's +most enthusiastic wrecking crew. The United States always believed in the freedom of Berlin +because we believed in the future of freedom. The courageous citizens of East Germany, Poland +and other nations of the Communist bloc demonstrated their dedication to free and peaceful +solution of conflicts through their stand against dictatorship. America stood resolutely as an ally +at every moment of this struggle and moved swiftly to help the peoples of Europe reunite after +1989. +We celebrate the steadiness of purpose, the restraint and respect for ultimate goals that allowed +the Cold War to end in peace. For how the victory was won was essential to the triumph. 1989 +was special. It was that rarest of historical events: a revolution that did not descend into +violence. As a result the Gate survives not as a cautionary monument to history's darkest. +moments but to its brightest. Today we celebrate the revolution of 1989, the turning point that +transformed the Brandenburg Gate into the symbol of the hope of democracy and the promise of +freedom. +Berliner Luft, the air of Berlin, has always been unique. I can feel and smell the spirit of freedom +in your streets. The great American poet Carl Sandburg called Berlin the Chicago of Europe. +Chicago is where I was born and raised. I can sense the same energy, openness and dedication to +hard work in both great cities.

Those can be fitted in. +So, some ideas and language: +Twenty years ago the wall fell. Here, in Berlin, the moment when tens of thousands of citizens tore it down with +hammers and picks and bare hands is called ""Die Wende,"" a phrase that means more than simply a change but a turning +point in history.

Congresswoman Laura Richardson has +worked closely with Faleomavaega throughout this process given that she represents part of the greater Los Angeles +area, and the Samoan communities living in that area are her constituents. +""I want to personally thank Secretary Clinton for her untiring efforts in getting these relief supplies airlifted,"" Chairman +Faleomavaega said. ""Since the tsunami struck, Secretary Clinton has spared no effort in coming to our aid, and even +called upon the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) to quickly move these supplies from the West Coast to Samoa. Last +evening, Congresswoman Richardson and I learned that DOD had agreed to move the supplies but that due to legalities +of moving privately-donated goods, the process would take too long."" +""In a previous conference call yesterday, anticipating that DOD might be unable to quickly move these supplies, we +requested the State Department to fund a commercial flight through the Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance should we +encounter any problems with DOD,"" Faleomavaega and Rep. Richardson said. ""Last night, upon learning that the DOD +process would take too long and in consideration of our request for a more immediate airlift, Secretary Clinton assessed +the options while en route to Europe, and this morning the State Department informed us that Secretary Clinton has +agreed to fund the flight with OFDA funds."" +""The agreement is that this will be a one-time airlift, and our Samoan communities should make future donations in +cash, rather than in commodities. We will not be able to airlift frozen goods, and our offices will work closely with the +communities to gather the supplies to a central location for the airlift. Also, the airlift provided by the U.S. Department +of State can only be authorized to land in Samoa. While we were also hopeful to get supplies in to American Samoa, all +matters relating to American Samoa are decided between the Governor and FEMA, according to federal law."" +""I know from my meeting earlier this week with Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele Malielegaoi that he is thankful to the +Samoan congregations and communities in the greater Los Angeles area who responded from the heart by collecting +critical supplies that will now be airlifted to those in need,"" Faleomavaega said. ""For this reason, I want to thank the +Prime Minister for agreeing to accept this gift, and I also want to thank Reverend Liki Tiatia, Reverend John Mailo, +Reverend Misipauena Tagaloa, and High Chief Loa Pele Faletogo for all the good work they have done. Reverend Tiatia +and Reverend Mailo will be taking a flight to Samoa to make the presentation to the Government of Samoa on behalf of +our Samoan community on the West Coast and also on behalf of Congresswoman Richardson and myself."" +""I especially want to thank Congresswoman Richardson for working around the clock in support of our Samoan +communities living in her district, and in Samoa and American Samoa,"" Faleomavaega continued. ""Congresswoman +Richardson has stood by us every step of the way and has left no stone unturned in getting this done. She has been +staunch and solid in her dedication to us, and has earned her rightful place in our hearts. It is my honor to welcome +Congresswoman Richardson into our Pacific Island family."" +""With so many people in need of basic supplies in Samoa, it has been a privilege to work with Chairman Faleomavaega +to assist the people of my district in making sure the items they have collected will soon be in the hands of their families +and friends,"" Congresswoman Richardson said. ""This feat is only possible because of the dedication of Chairman +Faleomavaega and Secretary Clinton.

Afghanistan. And why?"" I was recruited by the +AFT' s international department to support the Afghan Teacher Education Department's RPM +(Rapid Production of Materials) activity in which two dozen curriculum experts wrote teacher +training materials for classroom teachers. The other two members of the AFT team, Betty Harris +(ABC California) and Amber Prentice (St. Paul), arrived in late August +The RPM took place daily over a period of five weeks at the Sayyed Jumalladin Teacher +Training College in Kabul. Twenty Afghan educators were organized into three groups, each +responsible for completing the training manuals for one grade level (4-6, 7-9 and 10-12). For +each subject at each grade level, a module of five 90-minute training sessions was created. This +activity was part of the ongoing USAID program aimed at providing in-service training to all +Afghan teachers across eleven provinces of the country. My primary assignment was to review +an English translation of sessions as they were produced and to make technical edits which +facilitated the flow and focus without losing the voice and intent of the Afghan authors. +The site staff included three translators and three Provincial Monitoring Officers +(PMO's) who had been diverted from training in the field in order to work on the RPM. The +PMO's played an important role in facilitating the whole project and in helping the AFT team to +positively influence the process. They were knowledgeable about pedagogical theories, teacher +training, and the needs of teachers in the field. We had regular daily conversations about teacher +and trainer needs and how to meet them. The PMO's then shared these ideas with the RPM +groups. Before sessions were translated into English for my review, the PMO's also reviewed, +edited and discussed the material with the drafting groups. This nuanced intervention by the +PMO's substantially improved the quality of the initial drafts. +In addition to editing, I was encouraged to monitor the drafting work and interact with +RPM participants. It soon became clear that Afghan teachers in the field needed low-prep, low- +resource ideas for encouraging active student learning. I made several short presentations to the +whole group on low resource teaching tools, such as two sheets of paper folded over into a four- +section flipbook. This becomes a handy organizer of information for students and teachers alike. +The PMO's helped to connect the ideas in my presentations to the specific interests of the +audience. +The AFT team's experience as working teachers and professional developers was +valuable in facilitating the RPM at several key points. For example, we were able to apply our +experience in coordinating the activities and output of large groups of teachers.

We were also +able to suggest practices, such as deliberate labeling of the teaching strategy and grouping for +each activity, which helped to produce higher quality drafts. +A great challenge to the production of effective training manuals was that they would +have to survive a ""cascade"" of at least three levels of turnkey training while retaining clarity and +effectiveness for final delivery to the often under-prepared, under-resourced, teachers in the +field. The training process had to build the skills of teachers, deepen their content knowledge, +and establish a foundation for ongoing professional collaboration at the school level. Moreover, +the teachers in the field, at least, would not be paid for attending the trainings, so the training +materials had to be coherent and speak to their immediate needs. One of the most important +AFT team contributions was to address these challenges by refining the five training sessions for +each subject into templates with standardized formats and language. The templates respected the +language and content choices of the Afghan drafters, but also helped to ensure that the training +could be executed effectively by moderately skilled trainers. +When my colleagues Betty Harris (ABC California) and Amber Prentice (St. Paul) +arrived in late August, the ground had been prepared for our team to complete the technical +editing of the Grades 4-6 RPM materials on schedule, to present appropriate teacher training +ideas to an audience of RPM participants and other Teacher Education Department officials, and +to consult constructively with the PMO's and NGO partners of Creative regarding the plans for +the implementation of the training materials. +Comments +o An earlier arrival would have helped the AFT team to make more strategic contributions +to the process, such as deepening participants' understanding of group learning activities +before they started drafting them. +o It was an advantage to send one member of the AFT team ahead in order to get a feel for +the project and prepare the ground for the rest of the team. +o Close interaction with Afghan educators helped us to discern some important issues. +These included the importance of recruiting and supporting first grade teachers, who are +often the first contact with formal education for children and their families, especially in +towns and villages. We also learned that there is a high dropout rate during Grades 4 to +6. It emerged that there is substantial variation in attitudes toward education in different +regions of the country, where local experience and tradition exert such powerful +influences. +• Language barriers, despite the help of translators, inhibited the kind of nuanced group +facilitation in which AFT/Teacher Center trainers are skilled. +o Helping to refine the flow of the twelve-day trainings is where our AFT experience and +skills would be especially valuable. We expected that Amber would be involved in this +for much of September, but there were apparently some delays. +o Some delays were undoubtedly due to the difficulties of retranslation of our edited +sessions back into Dani and Pashtu. The similar format and language of the edited +sessions was expected to save time in translation after the first example was complete, +but apparently this did not flow as smoothly as we had hoped. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760205 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760205 Date: 06/30/2015 +Afghanistan Education Support Nicholas Norman +July — August 2009 AFT Consultant +Collaboration with Creative Associates +I was profoundly impressed by the qualities of the local Afghan staff who work with the +U.S. contractor Creative Associates. They are serious people. In particular, the three Provincial +Monitoring Officers who worked on the RPM project demonstrated real depth of knowledge +about pedagogy, understanding of effective practices of professional development, and +familiarity with conditions in the field which are likely to influence the effectiveness of the RPM +training materials. The ancillary staff (translators and typists) were sometimes inconsistent in +their attendance and in the volume of their work. However, they always cheerfully helped with +presentations and facilitated interactions with non-English speakers. +Comments +o Better communication before our arrival would have facilitated better decisions about +what materials to bring and helped us to plan ahead in order to utilize most fully the skills +and experience of the AFT team. +O The practice of regular reporting to the COP and at staff meetings helped us to ensure that +the priorities, pace and quality of work were consistent with expectations. +o There was some confusion in working with the Afghan translators. They were cheerful +and professional, but it was difficult accurately to assess the efficiency of their work as +they translated the RPM materials back into Dan and Pashtu. +Living and Working Conditions +Accomodation at Creative's ""Green House"" residence in Kabul was comfortable but not +lavish. The rooms were air-conditioned (a necessity) and mine had its own bath. Local staff +cooked excellent meals took care of the rooms and our laundry. On a couple of occasions, we +were able to entertain people to meals. It certainly felt safe, since the gates were secured by +guards around the clock and the deputy security manager lived in. +For most of August, there were strict restrictions on movement. Even a short walk down +the street to the Creative main office involved half a dozen of the security staff. It was easy to +arrange with the security manager for outings in the evening to guarded restaurants which +catered to foreigners and for visits to the grocery store and certain secure shops. Tourist +activities such as strolling through the bazaar or along the main streets were not possible. After +Betty and Amber arrived, we were able to visit the National Museum (with evidence of multiple +lootings still visible) and the palace of the former Kings. The latter was an engrossing though +eerie experience — in many ways a symbol of all the havoc wrought upon Afghanistan by a +generation of war. +Conditions out at the teacher training site were rather more challenging. Although +traveling in an armored vehicle, we were often stuck in traffic jams and the trip sometimes took +upwards of forty-five minutes. The site was a spacious classroom in the middle of the Kabul +Teachers' College campus. There were crowds of students everywhere, but one of the Creative +security staff was always on duty at the door, while the car remained just outside throughout the +day. Until the election lockdown began in mid-August, we were out at the RPM site five and a +half days a week. The workday generally ran from 8:30 to about 3:30. We seldom moved from +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760205 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760205 Date: 06/30/2015 +Afghanistan Education Support +July — August 2009 +Nicholas Norman +AFT Consultant +the room until leaving at the end of the day. During one week the heat regularly reached 110 +degrees. There were electric fans and water coolers, but the flies and dust steadily swirling +through the open windows were hard on the people and computer equipment alike. When +working at the Creative main office, we were given our own desk space. +Comments +• Living conditions might seem a bit spartan to person attached to the comforts of home or +a hotel. +• Working conditions out at the Sayyed Jumalladin Teacher College site would be difficult +for a person unaccustomed to heat, dust, flies and minimal amenities. +• All movement outside of the residences is tightly controlled. One cannot stroll around +the neighborhood. +• On several occasions, we were conscious of gunfire and explosions in the general +vicinity. A person who felt especially nervous about random rockets at night or +explosions on the streets during the day would have found this mission difficult. +• Social life in Kabul exists, but is restricted by security considerations. +Assessment +This summer's collaboration in Afghanistan between the AFT and Ministry of Education +was a remarkable success. The skills and experience of the AFT team were well matched to the +needs of the BESST project. We shared in common with the Afghan educators so many similar +concerns about the training and support of teachers that it was it was easy to step in and support +the production of training manuals. The Provincial Monitoring Officers were remarkably +effective in helping us to understand and respond to the needs of Afghan teachers. The Creative +team in Kabul were practical, open-minded, and welcomed our participation in the project. Our +full AFT team of three persons, although only together for a week, was able to collaborate +frankly and efficiently from the start. Our primary tasks — supporting the rapid production by +Afghan educators of teacher training materials and preparing the Grades 4-6 manual for +publication — were completed on time and to a high standard of quality. The project could not +have been more serious. Our AFT Team, in my opinion, made a substantive contribution to the +idea that Afghan teachers can be a community of educators. +This was a marvellous professional experience. It has convinced me that if Americans +listen carefully and lead pragmatically, we can help Afghans to build a professional community +of educators which could be a sturdy foundation for civil society. The AFT, with our tradition of +practical support in response to the needs of teachers in the classroom, can fill an essential role in +the process. +Recommendations for the AFT in responding to the needs of educators in Afganistan +• Train Afghan educators in the use of low-prep, low-resource dependent strategies for +supporting active student learning, including graphic organizers and paper manipulatives; +• Share and support practices for developing reading materials which are both +developmentally and culturally appropriate, such as collections of stories about local +families, occupations, traditions, and history; +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760205 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760205 Date: 06/30/2015 +Afghanistan Education Support Nicholas Norman +July — August 2009 AFT Consultant +• Share experience and help develop techniques for handling large classes (sometimes of +100 students or more), especially in the early grades; +• Share experience in effective instructional planning and execution under circumstances +where the school day, school year, and student attendance are not consistent; +• Help Afghan Teacher Education Department officials and the teachers whom they train +and monitor to understand the value of formative assessments in monitoring student +learning, especially with regard to proficiency in reading and writing; +• Provide training in Curriculum Mapping and strategies for sustaining the practice so that +Afghan educators are enabled to coordinate their efforts among subjects, grade levels and +schools; +• Disseminate aspects of brain research with immediate, obvious application to instruction, +such as how the link between age and the length of attention span can inform lesson +planning; +• Support more efficient planning and instruction by teachers in the field by providing +templates, strategies for setting priorities, and techniques for self-evaluation; +• At the policy level, in training for school leaders, and in training for teachers, present a +paradigm of differentiated instruction which synthesizes common sense experience with +theories of learning into an agenda for sustained improvement of teaching and learning. +In support of this objective, I would recommend translating and adapting Judy Dodge's +Differentiation in Action and 25 Short Formative Assessments. These ideas are +digestible in small bites by teachers with limited resources; +• Support the expansion and refinement of Teacher Learning Circles (school-based +professional groups); +• Introduce and support effective practices for organizing, mobilizing, and sustaining +structures for local collaboration, such as Teacher Learning Circles, Lead Teachers, +community sponsorship of school activities, and provincial/district resource centers; +• Share experience in techniques for building connects between schools and parents; +• Help to develop a plan for teacher induction, development and retention; +• Share experience in developing supports for 1st Grade teachers, who play a critical role in +Afghanistan as the first point of contact with formal education for many children and +their parents; +• Help Afghan educators to widen the area of common language, experience and +benchmarks for proficiency in the teaching profession; +• Through training of administrators, lead teachers, and instructional specialists, facilitate +supportive school supervision and provincial leadership; +• Support analysis of the high drop-out rate in Grades 4-6 and help to develop strategic +responses so that more children move on to middle and high school; +• Share low-cost but effective practices for acknowledging and encouraging professional +accomplishment by teachers; +• Share techniques for building professional connections among teachers across provincial +boundaries.

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express my longstanding commitment to assist the Haitian people in +their pursuit of a stable, prosperous and democratic future. +During my trip to Haiti, I was reminded of the tremendous challenges facing this island nation. The U.N.'s appointment +of President Clinton as special envoy to Haiti has helped to keep a much-needed spotlight on Haiti. President Clinton's +appointment of Dr. Paul Farmer as the Deputy U.N. Special Envoy for Haiti, adds an invaluable wealth of experience and +knowledge to the U.N.'s work in Haiti. +As a founder of Partners in Health and the Institute for Justice & Democracy in Haiti, Dr. Farmer has demonstrated a +selfless commitment to the advancement of health and democracy in Haiti for the past 20 years. I have witnessed +firsthand Dr. Farmer's dedication to helping improve the lives of those in need. +He has strong south Florida ties. I am proud to call him a friend, along with our mutual friend, Jennie Block, who has also +worked so hard on issues of concern to the Haitian community. +I understand that the conference on the Inter-American Development Bank in Haiti went quite well. I was pleased to see +that the United Nations voted unanimously this week to extend the authorization for the U.N. Mission in Haiti for +another year. +I would also like to take a moment to express my condolences to the families of those who lost their lives in last +weekend's plane crash during a U.N. mission. The U.N. mission in Haiti has helped to play an important role in bringing +security and stability to some of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Haiti. I continue to support its mission and the +many men and women from around the world who work to carry it out. +However, it seems that Haiti just can't get to the next step. From assistance to debt relief, from trade benefits to +hurricane recovery, U.S. policy toward Haiti has run the gamut, but it is not achieving the long-term goals that we had +hoped for for the Haitian people and that the Haitian people want for themselves and their nation. +I am pleased to know that our State Department is taking a closer look at some of the challenges we are facing in Haiti. +Last week, Secretary Clinton's chief of staff and her point person on Haiti briefed Members on some of the initial +findings of this review. +I am confident that this review will help us to better understand how U.S. assistance to Haiti can be better targeted and +supportive of Haiti's own plans and goals; how assistance within the donor community can be better coordinated; how +the U.S. can better engage the Haitian Diaspora in our assistance efforts; and, finally, how the U.S. can finally make our +assistance sustainable so that outside efforts can ultimately be transferred into the hands of the Haitian government +and its people. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760221 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760221 Date: 06/30/2015 +It is crucial that the efforts made by the U.S., the U.N. and others are effectively coordinated to ensure maximum +efficiency and maximum benefit for the people of Haiti. Innovative microcredit and microenterprise programs would +help to empower individuals, create self-reliance and create sustainability at the grassroots level. We should also look at +the very small-scale renewable energy programs for impoverished rural villages and settlements that are not served by +electric grids. +One of the immediate ways we can help the people of Haiti would be to grant temporary protected status to the +Haitians currently living in the U.S. Granting TPS to Haitians is the missing piece of a successful U.S. approach to +supporting the people of Haiti in the short and long term. I will continue to work with my colleagues to encourage the +administration to take this important step. +In addition, I will continue to support Haiti's inclusion in security initiatives, such as the Merida Initiative, to ensure that +the U.S. is doing all we can to help President Preval in his efforts against the narcotr: +affickers. +Success in Haiti is in the U.S. national security interest, and we must work together to help address the many challenges +we face and that our Caribbean neighbor faces day in and day out. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760221 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1013,C05760222,,millscd@state.gov,H,80,2009-10-16T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_1-11M/DOC_0C05760222/C05760222.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Re:,'millscd@state ov',H ,,"Friday, October 16, 2009 3:09 PM",F-2014-20439,C05760222,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Let's discuss.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760222 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: H +Sent: Friday, October 16, 2009 3:09 PM +To: 'millscd@state ov' +Subject: Re: +Let's discuss. +Original Message +From: Mills, Cheryl D +To: H +Sent: Fri Oct 16 14:44:16 2009 +Subject: FW: +From: Slaughter, Anne-Marie +Sent: Friday, October 16, 2009 2:40 PM +To: Mills, Che I D +Subject: +Is she being considered?

Its success in the most difficult and dangerous +environments has been very impressive, as the four minute video that Sid gave to you on my behalf demonstrates. We +now want to bring that business model and philosophy to Africa where the social entrepreneurship and the +development of skilled labor is imperative for Africa's long term economic prospects, as you have so forcefully +articulated in past comments. +I am very enthusiastic about +Symbion.

Heyman, who stood out as a corporate raider who preferred to hold on to companies he bought and run them +rather that sell them for a quick profit, died Sunday at Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan. He was 70. +Mr. Heyman's death was confirmed by his wife, Ronnie, who said he had died after complications from open heart +surgery. +Mr. Heyman was most recently chairman of the GAF Corporation, a manufacturer of roofing materials, and a chemical +company that was spun off from GAF, called International Specialty Products. Both companies are based in Wayne, N.J. +A group led by Mr. Heyman bought GAF in 1983 and took it private in 1987 after the stock market crashed. He later spun +off GAF's chemical business into a separate company, I.S.P. +During that period, corporate raiders tended to buy companies, cut operational costs and then sell them at a profit. But +after Mr. Heyman won a battle with GAF's management for control of the company, he told The New York Times: ""There +is a very strong potential in chemicals, and we plan to make them grow."" +Mr. Heyman, who was also a lawyer, had diverse business holdings, including Heyman Properties, which owns shopping +malls in the Northeast and which grew out of a business he had inherited from his father. +""He was extremely methodical. There was a rhyme and reason to everything he did,"" said Leon Black, the chairman of +Apollo Management, a private equity firm, and a longtime friend who was once Mr. Heyman's investment banker. +Mr. Black added: ""He combined a strong legal background with a strong analytical business strength, and he was a fierce +negotiator. But what really made Sam kick was that he was a builder. It was all about building, whether it was his +companies, his real estate, his art collection or his family."" +Mr. Heyman was born March 1, 1939, in Danbury, Conn., to Annette and Lazarus Heyman. His father was a real estate +developer. After graduating from Yale in 1960 and Harvard Law School in 1964, Mr. Heyman went to work in the Justice +Department under Robert F. Kennedy and served as chief assistant United States attorney for Connecticut.

Attack on BBC to follow. Sid +The Independent +November 12, 2009 +Has Cameron done a deal with Murdoch? +By Andy McSmith +Lord Mandelson's attack shines spotlight on Tory leader's links with media mogul +David Cameron has been accused of making a ""contract"" with Britain's biggest media company to trade political support +before an election for government favours afterwards if the Tories win. +The accusation was levelled yesterday by the Business Secretary Peter Mande!son, who is increasingly the public face of +Gordon Brown's government. Ministers are angry at the campaign that The Sun has run against the Prime Minister all +this week over the spelling mistakes in a letter Mr Brown sent to the mother of a young soldier killed in Afghanistan. +They suspect that the Conservative Party has been tailoring its policies on media regulation and the BBC to suit the +commercial interests of News International, which owns The Sun, and that the paper's aggressive support for the Tories +is a pay-off that could spread to other parts of the mass media. +Examples of the apparent tie-in between what News International's boss, James Murdoch, wants, and what David +Cameron is ready to promise include the recent decision by the Conservatives to abandon the idea of ""top slicing"" the +BBC licence fee. It had been proposed that part of the money paid to the BBC would be siphoned off to help regional +television companies meet the threat from the Internet. But this would also have helped them compete more effectively +against Sky News, which is part of the Murdoch media empire. +When the policy was abandoned in September, Jeremy Hunt, the shadow Culture Secretary, said that it was because +enacting it might make the commercial television companies ""focus not on attracting viewers but on attracting +subsidies"". There was no gain for the BBC in the climbdown, because David Cameron had already said that the Tories will +freeze the licence fee. What it will mean is that the BBC's income will be capped, without the regional television +companies seeing any government help, which will strengthen the market position of Britain's only satellite television +company, Sky. ""This was done for News International,"" a Tory insider said yesterday. ""Murdoch wants Sky to go head to +head with the BBC. He doesn't want the independent companies strengthened."" +In April 2008, James Murdoch complained bitterly about the media regulator Ofcom in his first major speech after taking +over as chief executive of News Corporation in Europe and Asia. The following year, David Cameron announced that a +Conservative government would cut Ofcom down to size. +Last summer James Murdoch attacked the ""abysmal record"" of the BBC Trust - the body created by Labour to over see +the BBC - in a lecture he gave at the Edinburgh Festival, singling out its ""total failure"" to stop the BBC buying the Lonely +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760303 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760303 Date: 06/30/2015 +Planet travel guides, a takeover that Murdoch denounced as an ""egregious"" invasion of private enterprise by the state. +Less than two months later, Jeremy Hunt promised that the Tories would abolish the Trust. +In the same lecture, Murdoch complained that BBC performers like Jonathan Ross are being paid salaries that ""no +commercial competitor can afford"". He had barely uttered the words before Ed Vaizey, a shadow media minister, +promised that a Tory government would compel the BBC to publish the salaries of its top performers. +Lord Mandelson alleged yesterday that the Conservatives and News International had ""effectively formed a contract, +over the head, incidentally, of the newspaper's editor and their readers, in which they are sort of bound to one +another"". +Speaking to the BBC's Today programme, he added: ""What The Sun can do for the Conservatives during the election is +one part of the contract and, presumably, what the Conservatives can do for News International if they are elected is the +other side of the bargain. But there is a wider question. When The Sun creates the news in this way, this is then followed +up by Sky News, which then puts pressure on the BBC to follow suit."" +This was ""absolutely, categorically"" denied yesterday by The Sun's political editor, Tom Newton Dunn, who accused Lord +Mandelson of talking ""preposterous nonsense"". +The Sun, which supported Labour through three general elections under Tony Blair's leadership, announced that it was +jumping ship on the day that Gordon Brown delivered his annual speech.to the Labour Party conference in September. +Its onslaught on Gordon Brown for the mistakes made in a handwritten letter to Jacqui Janes is the most aggressive +attack that the newspaper has directed at any Labour Party leader since Neil Kinnock stood down after losing the 1992 +general election, a defeat for which The Sun claimed victory with the slogan ""It was The Sun wot won it"". +But there were signs yesterday that the attack may have rebounded on The Sun. Mr Brown, who is blind in one eye, has +admitted that his handwriting is bad and has apologised to Mrs Janes, whose 20-year-old son, Jamie, was killed by a +makeshift bomb in Afghanistan last month. +A poll yesterday for the website PoliticsHome, whose main shareholder is the Conservative Party deputy chairman Lord +Ashcroft, found that 65 per cent of those polled thought that The Sun's attack was ""inappropriate"" compared with 23 +per cent who thought it was ""legitimate"". +The closeness of the new Tory-Sun axis is shown up by the revelation, from an inside source, that David Cameron +personally consulted the editor of The Sun, Dominic Mohan, in three separate conversations before he abandoned his +""cast-iron"" promise to hold a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty, now that all 27 members states of the EU have ratified it. +Mr Cameron was understandably wary of how The Sun might react to the abandonment of that promise. The paper has +campaigned for years against what it sees as the growth of an EU superstate. It was in an open letter to readers of The +Sun that Cameron first made his guarantee, two years ago. +His announcement that a referendum is off the agenda was subjected to a scathing attack in the Daily Mail, but in The +Sun it was given kid-glove treatment under the headline ""Cameron's crusade for UK rights"". +The person behind this aggressively pro-Tory policy is James Murdoch, not his father, Rupert, who created The Sun +virtually from scratch in the 1970s. Rupert Murdoch claimed in an interview with Sky News Australia that he ""regretted"" +his son's decision to turn against Gordon Brown, ""who is a friend of mine"", but defended it on the grounds that Brown +has been a ""disappointment"". +Yesterday, The Times, another Murdoch newspaper, announced that its veteran political editor, Phil Webster, is leaving +the Commons, where he h8 been based for decades. Mr Webster is very well thought of by New Labour. His +replacement, Roland Watson, was a friend of David Cameron's at Eton but has no political ties with the Tories. +Tom Newton Dunn, newly appointed as The Sun's political editor, is another Old Etonian. His father, Bill, used to be a +Tory MEP, but defected to the Liberal Democrats in 2000. +Independent News and Media Limited +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760303 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1067,C05760304,THIS AM,abedinh@state.gov,H,80,2009-08-26T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/6_7_8/DOC_0C05760304/C05760304.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: This am,'abedinh@state.gov',H ,,"Wednesday, August 26, 2009 10:28 AM",F-2014-20439,C05760304,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Any word on Kennedy funeral?,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760304 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: H +Sent: Wednesday, August 26, 2009 10:28 AM +To: 'abedinh@state.gov' +Subject: Re: This am +Any word on Kennedy funeral? +Original Message +From: Abedin, Huma +To: H +Sent: Wed Aug 26 10:22:12 2009 +Subject: Re: This am +They will call the secure ste on 3rd floor at 10:30. +Original Message +From: H +To: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Wed Aug 26 09:42:12 2009 +Subject: Re: This am +Yes, I can do at 10:30. +Original Message +From: Abedin, Huma +To: H +Sent: Wed Aug 26 08:35:44 2009 +Subject: This am +Holbrooke asking to talk to as soon as possible. +Also can u do secure mitchell call at 10:30? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760304 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1068,C05760306,ARE YOU AWAKE,millscd@state.gov,H,80,2009-11-12T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05760306/C05760306.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: are you awake,'millscd@state.gov.,H ,,"Thursday, November 12, 2009 10:21 AM",F-2014-20439,C05760306,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Yes--call my berry or the black phone in my room.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760306 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: H +Sent: Thursday, November 12, 2009 10:21 AM +To: 'millscd@state.gov. +Subject: Re: are you awake +Yes--call my berry or the black phone in my room. +Original Message +From: Mills, Cheryl D +To: H +Sent: Thu Nov 12 10:19:26 2009 +Subject: are you awake +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760306 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1069,C05760307,ARE YOU AWAKE,millscd@state.gov,H,80,2009-11-12T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05760307/C05760307.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: are you awake,'millscd@state.gov',H ,,"Thursday, November 12, 2009 10:27 AM",F-2014-20439,C05760307,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,I haven't been able to get a line out on my berry so that may be why.

But they are frighteningly +closer. +And the irony screams out. +Carol Mann +On Monday, the same day Eric Holder, President Obama's attorney general, announced he would appoint a special +counsel to investigate whether torture was used by the CIA to extract confessions from foreign suspects, a U.S. appeals +court at the behest of the U.S. government ruled that it didn't have a problem sending Parlak back to the country where +he was tortured -- imprisoned for 17 months, shocked with electrodes, hung by his arms and sexually violated. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760312 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760312 Date: 06/30/2015 +A Turkish Kurd, Parlak was granted political asylum in 1992. It was before our government got cozier with Turkey, before +it re-classified some of the Kurdish separatist movement as ""terrorist"" and before the attacks of Sept. 11. With 9/11, +Ibrahim Parlak's horror began anew. +Suddenly he looked different to the newly created Department of Homeland Security and to the Justice Department's +Immigration courts. Instead of seeing a hard-working, tax-paying Chamber of Commerce member who ran Cafe Gulistan, +a small Middle Eastern restaurant in the resort town of Harbert, Mich., the feds now saw an international menace. +In 2004, the FBI grabbed Parlak and locked him up. +If it hadn't been for a volunteer team of lawyers, including a Reagan-appointed former U.S. attorney, a former FBI anti- +terrorism legal adviser and the bipartisan intervention of Michigan's Sen. Carl Levin, a liberal Democrat, and Rep. Fred +Upton, a conservative Republican, Parlak would still be in jail. +Thanks to them, this 47-year-old father of a 12-year-old girl is temporarily free. But just barely. +The newest outrage is the 2-1 decision issued by Cincinnati's 6th Circuit Court of Appeals on the same day Holder +launched his torture inquiry. +The majority opinion was issued by two Bush appointees put on the bench after 9/11. Judge Julia Smith Gibbons and +Judge Jeffrey Sutton upheld the Justice Department's Immigration courts ruling that Parlak failed to disclose his +relationship to the now-labeled terrorist organization even though he was never proven to be a member. +Let's remember something about our immigration courts. They are not independent. They work for whoever is the +attorney general. And the past rulings against Parlak came under two now-controversial Bush appointees, John Ashcroft +and Alberto Gonzales. +The fairness of immigration rulings has been ripped by none other than Judge Richard Posner of the 7th Circuit Court of +Appeals, one of the nation's most brilliant judges. By September of 2005, Posner noted ""a staggering 40 percent of the +136 petitions"" had been reversed due to, according to one ruling, a willingness to ignore ""the most basic of facts."" +Echoing Posner now is the dissenting judge on the Parlak appeal. Judge Boyce F. Martin, a Carter appointee, writes with +both clarity and conviction, arguing the government's ""awesome power was used here to railroad a man out of our +country."" +Like a surgeon, Martin dissects the Justice Department's immigration courts and the majority opinion of his own +colleagues, and ends by saying, ""I remain hopeful, nevertheless, that this case is but a sad remnant of an era of paranoid, +overzealous, error-riddled and misguided anti-terrorism and immigration enforcement that has now gone by the +wayside. It is just a shame that, even if my hope proves true, it is too late for Ibrahim Parlak."" +Parlak's legal team will appeal. +Meanwhile, Holder, like Ashcroft and Gonzales before him, is the new boss of the immigration courts. +As he investigates questions of U.S. torture abroad, here's hoping Holder examines the ongoing domestic legal torture of +Ibrahim Parlak. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760312 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1074,C05760313,FW:,JilotyLC@state.gov,H,80,2009-11-13T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05760313/C05760313.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05760313,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"H +Friday, November 13, 2009 6:41 AM +'JilotyLC@state.gov', 'Russorv@state.gov' +Fw: +Pis do a congrats letter.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760313 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +H +Friday, November 13, 2009 6:41 AM +'JilotyLC@state.gov', 'Russorv@state.gov' +Fw: +Pis do a congrats letter. +Original Message +From: Marty Torrey +To: H +Sent: Thu Nov 12 12:34:07 2009 +Subject: +born yesterday. +Also, great job in Berlin and with USS +New York.

For example, a new book by +Romesh Ratnesar (Tear Down This Wall: A City, a President, and the Speech that Ended the Cold War) argues that the +four-word dare that Reagan hurled at Mikhail Gorbachev in June 1987 catalyzed the forces that led to collapse of the +East German regime a little more than two years later. In a speech that Newt Gingrich gave on the anniversary titled, +""The Victory of the Cross: How Spiritual Renewal Helped Topple the Berlin Wall,"" he was expected to say that Reagan's +""constant moral and material support for the cause of freedom"" undermined the Iron Curtain. +But the real world-historical hero of that whole episode was Mikhail Gorbachev himself. If he had lost out in 1985 to any +of his rivals for the top job in the Kremlin—the Moscow or Leningrad party chiefs, for example—we'd probably still have +a cold war and, quite possibly, a divided Berlin. Gorbachev, now 78, made an appearance at the commemorative +ceremonies in Berlin on Monday, as did Russian President Dimitri Medvedev. +Two other decisive figures were Reagan's and Gorbachev's successors. +President George H.W. Bush served as a calm—and calming—air traffic controller, guiding an increasingly dispirited +Gorbachev as he piloted the Soviet state in for a soft landing on the ash heap of history. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760321 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760321 Date: 06/30/2015 +And had Boris Yeltsin not stood up to the hard-line communists who briefly ousted Gorbachev in 1991, the Soviet +Union—and the Soviet system—might have survived.

She was predeceased by her parents and siblings, Claude, Eddie, +Grady, Hansel, Clara, Isli, and Doyle. She was predeceased by her loving husband of 67 years, Stephen Fowler Spargo, +and by Jamie and Billy Gibbs, her daughter and sonin-law, and her son-in-law Allen Brown DeLamar. The Spargos, natives +of Hot Springs, made Arkadelphia home when Steve joined Reynolds Aluminum Company in 1954. +Mrs. Spargo is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Byron and Mary Lynda Spargo, of Baton Rouge, La., and her +daughters, Nancy Spargo DeLamar, of Little Rock, and Dr. Linda Spargo, of Oxford, Miss. Her grandchildren include +Megan DeLamar Schroeder and her husband, Trey, of Texarkana; Hattie Alton of Oxford, Miss.; Johni Beth Gibbs and her +fiance Jeremy Teague of Sheridan; Gwendy Clingman and her husband, Ed, of Mechanicsville, Va.; and Leslie Spargo of +Baton Rouge. Johnnie Mae was especially proud of her great-grandchildren: Frances and Eleanor Schroeder and Ryan +and Lauren Clingman. +She was a fierce and loyal advocate for each and every one of her offspring and truly believed that they could be +anything in the world they wanted to be. She was a member of the First Methodist Church in Arkadelphia. Johnnie Mae +was a pre-school teacher for many years at Margo Nelson's Wonderland School in Arkadelphia. She also helped her +community as a constant and reliable election poll worker. Even though Johnnie Mae was determined that she not be +perceived as a retiring little granny, her family was her universe. She was a strong, vibrant woman with black hair coiffed +on top of her head and clicking high heels, and she had beautiful skin that all of her progeny hope to inherit. She +believed in living to the fullest until the end, doing good works, helping all whom she encountered in ways that she +could, and imbuing her children and grandchildren with a strong work ethic and deep empathy for those less fortunate. +Many people in Arkansas have been the recipient of one of her lemon butter pound cakes for doing something kind for +one of her girls. When she won the 2003 Clark County Democrat of the Year, Johnnie Mae was described as a cross +between Eva Peron and Mary Poppins. +Johnnie Mae made her mark on Arkadelphia, determined that her children would enjoy to the fullest the experiences +that the Norman Rockwellian setting provided. She threw herself into any endeavor that her children and grandchildren +wanted to pursue. When Becky Fuller, now Rebecca Ward, was the first person from the city to win a statewide election +at Girl's State, Johnnie Mae organized a city-wide homecoming celebration complete with a parade for all the +Arkadelphia delegates that included her daughter Nancy. When Johnnie Mae's daughter Jamie wanted to pursue rodeo +and barrel racing, Nonnie perfected her ability to sew cowgirl outfits while also cheering-on her daughter from the +stands. When her daughter Linda wanted to serve as a cheerleader for Arkadelphia High School and then Ouachita +Baptist University, Johnnie Mae and Steve's house became nerve-center for all events athletic. When daughter Nancy +returned to Arkadelphia in 1964 with seven-month-old Megan to raise, Johnnie and Steve provided a nurturing, loving +home for daughter and granddaughter. Megan was the grandchild who gave Johnnie Mae her proudest title: Johnnie +Mae became ""Nonnie."" +Nonnie was queen of a tribe of three generations of women known as ""Spargo Girls."" When her great-granddaughters +Frances and Eleanor were born in 1999, Nonnie was determined that the twin girls would not use an exclusive +communication method. Nonnie's special task was to talk with them extensively and one-on-one, making sure that the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760369 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760369 Date: 06/30/2015 +girls' first desire was to talk to her. Active in Democratic politics at all levels and with a passion, she was equally a +dedicated life master of duplicate bridge and played many a set with her friends at the House of Bridge in Hot Springs. +Johnnie ultimately spent most of her time driving to wherever one of her children lived to help with whatever tasks of +life needed tending. In response to this demanding schedule, she famously responded, ""You can sleep when you are +dead!"" Her stock question when confronted with news from one of her children of a pending event — whether one was +receiving an award or going out for lunch — was ""Well, what will you wear?"" Raising all these Spargo girls, she was +expert not only at re-upholstering an entire set of living room furniture, she also sewed countless, spontaneous-yet- +appropriate attire, from couture evening gowns to cowgirl wear. Making ball gowns from the draperies was not +exclusive to other southern heroines. +Perhaps Johnnie Mae's most endearing qualities were unfailing optimism combined with great pragmatism. She lived in +the present and did not believe in guilt or regrets. Born before women could vote, she cast one of her last votes for the +woman she hoped would be the first woman President. When Hillary did not prevail, she once again enjoyed casting a +vote for a straight Democratic ticket. Nonnie would want the family to express special gratitude for the many kindnesses +extended to her by the staff and nurses at Presbyterian Village in Little Rock, where she resided since June 2009. Thank +you is extended also to Arkansas Hospice whose compassion and care comforted both family and friends. Thanks are +also expressed to the staff of Home Instead and their compassionate caregiver, Bette White. John Lee Roberts of +Arkadelphia provided unwavering help and assistance and was a much loved friend and companion to both Steve and +Johnnie Mae. +The family will have a visitation at 9:30-10:30 a.m. Wednesday at Ruggles-Wilcox Funeral Home in Arkadelphia, followed +by a graveside service at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday at Rose Hill Cemetery led by Father Douglas Anderson of St. James +Episcopal Church, Texarkana. Memorials may be made to Arkansas Hospice, 5600 W 12th St., Little Rock, Ark. 72204; +Presbyterian Village Foundation, 510 Brookside, Little Rock, Ark. 72205; or the Arkansas Nature Conservancy, 601 North +University, Little Rock, Ark. 72205.

The vote to invoke cloture will double as a vote on the motion to proceed, +allowing senators to head home for Thanksgiving recess following the 8 p.m. vote. +If cloture is invoked, Reid would immediately call up his bill as a substitute amendment to a House measure that will +serve as the shell for the motion to proceed vote. Senator Coburn had threatened to require the clerk to read the 2,000- +page bill following the vote on the motion to proceed, but Reid will call up the bill by number only, which prevents a +reading. +Whether Reid has the votes to break the filibuster Saturday hangs on three Democrats: Senators Lincoln, Landrieu, and +Ben Nelson. All three say they are undecided, but appear to indicate they are leaning toward voting in favor of cloture. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760390 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760390 Date: 06/30/2015 +Reportedly Landrieu has been using her leverage to attempt to change the bill as it moves forward and won a +particularly sweet deal that could bring billions to Louisiana. Following 2005's Hurricane Katrina, Louisiana saw an +increase in per capita income, which led to a significant drop in federal Medicaid funding. Reid included language in the +bill that will increase funding by 50 percent of the total decrease. +You will recall that Senator Snowe was the only Republican to vote in favor of the Finance bill, but said she has too many +concerns with Reid's version to support the cloture vote Saturday. +Earlier this week, the CB0 scored the Reid bill. The CBO estimates the total cost of the legislation is $848 billion. +Below please find a copy of the President's statement on the roll out of Reid's legislation: +STATEMENT FROM PRESIDENT OBAMA ON THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT +""Today we passed another critical milestone in the health reform effort with the release of the Patient Protection and +Affordable Care Act. I was particularly pleased to see that the Congressional Budget Office has estimated that the bill will +reduce the deficit by $127 billion over the next ten years and as much as $650 billion in the decade following, saving +hundreds of billions while extending coverage to 31 million more Americans. +From day one, our goal has been to enact legislation that offers stability and security to those who have insurance and +affordable coverage to those who don't, and that lowers costs for families, businesses and governments across the +country. Majority Leader Reid, Chairmen Baucus and Dodd, and countless Senators have worked tirelessly to craft +legislation that meets those principles. +Just yesterday, a bipartisan group of more than 20 leading health economists released a letter urging passage of +meaningful reform and praising four key provisions that are in the Senate legislation: a fee on insurance companies +offering high-premium plans, the establishment of an independent Medicare commission, reforms to the health care +delivery system, and overall deficit neutrality. The economists said that these provisions 'will reduce long-term deficits, +improve the quality of care, and put the nation on a firm fiscal footing.' Those are precisely the goals we should be +seeking to attain. +The challenges facing our health care system aren't new — but if we fail to act they'll surely get even worse, meaning +higher premiums, skyrocketing costs, and deeper instability for those with coverage. Today, thanks to the Senate's hard +work, we're closer than ever to enacting solutions to these problems. +I look forward to working with the Senate and House to get a finished bill to my desk as soon as possible."" +### +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760390 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1133,C05760392,ARE YOU UP?,cheryl.mills,H,80,2009-11-22T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05760392/C05760392.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Are you up?,'cheryl.mills 'millscd@state.gov',H ,,"Sunday, November 22, 2009 6:24 AM",F-2014-20439,C05760392,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,I am and would like to talk before 8 if you can.

On the eve of the president's announcement on Afghanistan the Western alliance is near-broken. The obvious: +Your trip to NATO will be the final call on Afghanistan. Whatever you scrap together there will be the remains of the day. +There will be no more. The spare change in troops you pick up will be the close-out deal. The Europeans will be less +amenable to contributions in the future than the House Democratic Caucus. +3. Consensus across the board in Britain—center, right, left—is that the Atlantic alliance—the special relationship— +the historic bond since World War II—is shattered. There is no dissenting voice, not one, and there are no illusions. +Opinion is unanimous. The bottom line is that the Obama administration's denigration of the UK is seen as the +summation of the Bush era. Undoubtedly, you saw this week Minister of Defense Bob Ainsworth's public criticism of +Obama's indecision and his accusation that the president is indifferent and damaging to British interest. While Downing +Street sought to ameliorate his remarks with an oleaginous statement his view is simply What everyone—everyone- +thinks. His clumsy outburst was a classic gaffe—an embarrassing mistake because it reveals something true. The Chilcot +inquiry of Parliament, publicly conducting hearings on the origins of UK involvement in the Iraq invasion, has put Bush's +war on terror—and British involvement—on trial—and the calmly conducted but eviscerating hearings will go on for +another year. Blair is seen as either complicit on the basis of knowing there was no casus belli or as an enthusiastically +deceived tool. Nick Clegg, leader of the Liberal Democrats, has stated that the reason support for the Afghanistan +mission has cratered is because of the lies told in the run-up to the Iraq war—another view universally held. Meanwhile, +former UK ambassador to the US Christopher Meyer has published his new book on the history of UK diplomacy with +concluding sections on the demise of the special relationship. He is not only being interviewed on all British media but +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 +also has appeared as a voluble witness before the Chilcot commission. (I've included a report below.) All British +newspapers and journals have prominently published many pieces within the last week on the decline and fall of the US- +UK relationship. (I've included below the lead editorial today from the London Times and the cover story from the +Spectator—two of the most resolutely pro-American sources.) The tone is not resentful, but reserved, disdainful and +superior. The US administration is considered blinkered, parochial and counter-productive. Conservatives are more +contemptuous than Labour, which feels abandoned and somewhat baffled. Rather than eager to be Obama's poodle, +Cameron would be superficially friendly and privately scornful. Class has a lot to do with the contempt. A Cameron +government would be more aristocratic and even narrowly Etonian than any Conservative government in recent history, +sharply contrasting especially with the striving and classless perspective of the grocer's daughter, Margaret Thatcher. +And yet, and yet, the most recent poll this week showed Labour within striking distance of the Tories, about five points +down, the result of a slight economic uptick. A hung parliament seems very possible. Given the distribution of voting +patterns, Labour need not win a plurality to have more seats than the Tories. The slight buoyancy for Labour in this +unique situation has only heightened anxiety about Obama's Afghanistan process, which has excluded the British +government from significant consultation and consideration of its interests. (See the lead to Con Coughlin's Spectator +piece.) Therefore, you might contemplate a brief trip to London and public appearance with Brown on your way back +from Brussels. +4. On the Western alliance, beyond its military part, NATO, there is much more to say and develop, but later. Read +three pieces below: +From The Times +November 26, 2009 +Atlantic drift +Washington's delay in announcing its Afghanistan strategy has left Brown drifting. Obama needs to invest more time and +attention in the transatlantic alliance President Obama declared on Tuesday that ""the whole world"" had a responsibility +to help the US-led mission in Afghanistan. He would, he said, soon lay out the ""obligations of our international partners"". +Those partners have been waiting a long time for the details. On Monday the President had his tenth meeting with his +advisers to work out his strategy for Afghanistan. He has now spent almost three months considering his options, and +has promised an announcement on deployments after the Thanksgiving holiday. +For Gordon Brown, this cannot come too soon. After the United States, Britain is the largest contributor of troops to the +Nato operation in Afghanistan. There has never been any suggestion that Britain has enough soldiers to pursue a +separate strategy or that it can operate independently of the US forces, which already number some 68,000 troops. +Until the White House decides whether to send an extra 40,000 or some figure significantly lower than the number +requested by General Stanley McChrystal, Mr Brown cannot properly plan the best support strategy. +It is becoming sadly apparent that Britain has been left drifting by the delays in Washington, and that the Obama +Administration is largely unaware of the embarrassment this is causing the Government. More worryingly, this does not +seem to be a source of concern within the Administration. Downing Street, diplomatically, turns aside any suggestion +that it is frustrated by the nonchalance with which it is being treated. But the insistent questions on Afghanistan, the +anger caused by the steady stream of returning war dead and the rapid crumbling of public support for the war cannot +be answered effectively until Mr Brown is taken into American confidence and seen as a full partner in the Nato +campaign. +On the surface, the continuing high regard in Britain for the dynamic and articulate new President has masked these +growling complaints. Mr Brown is not suffering, as his predecessor did, from the taint of close association with a deeply +unpopular US president. On the contrary: like several European leaders, he is still eager to position himself as close as +possible to Mr Obama to clothe himself in some of the President's European popularity. But within Government, there is +already worry that Britain's voice counts far less than it did in the past. This is not simply another instance of the +persistent but pointless British anxiety over the so-called special relationship; it is a justified concern that two of the +main pillars of the Nato alliance should have policies and strategies that are closely co-ordinated and sympathetically +understood on both sides when fighting a war. +The fault, glaringly, is on the American side. The White House no longer seems to be monitoring the reactions and +•political options of its transatlantic allies. It is not sufficient to suggest that the Administration sees little point in +investing time and diplomacy in a British government likely to be defeated in the coming general election; wartime allies +have interests that go far beyond the political make-up of the government of the day. Mr Obama promised during his +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 +election campaign to revive trust in American leadership and to re-engage in multinational diplomacy. In office, he has +certainly voiced the same ideals; but he has invested little in giving new substance and dynamism to the transatlantic +relationship. +On Afghanistan, Mr Brown has sometimes been left speechless by Washington. He talks of sending 500 extra troops. But +until he knows the likely US strategy, he cannot outline his own. Atlanticism is always fragile on the Left and was +stretched to breaking point by Tony Blair. It is now being undermined by indifference in Washington. Today America is +enjoying Thanksgiving. Tomorrow it must look out again to its all +THE SPECTATOR +A special form of disrespect +Con Coughlin +Wednesday, 18th November 2009 +Barack Obama's increasing disregard for Britain's views is no way to treat an ally whose troops have fought side by +side with America since September 11, says Con Coughlin +Washington +It says much about Britain's rapidly disappearing 'special relationship' with America that when I happened to +mention to some of our senior military officers that I was visiting Washington, they begged me to find out what the +Obama administration was thinking about Afghanistan. It is not just that the transatlantic lines of communication, so +strong just a few years ago, have fallen into disuse. There is now a feeling that, even if we reached the Oval Office, there +would be no one willing to take Britain's call. +• For weeks now, President Obama has been deliberating over what the Afghan strategy should be — and how many +troops to send. If there is confusion in Washington, then Britain's strategy is not much clearer. Gordon Brown has staged +a recent flurry of activity on the subject, from writing misspelt letters to grieving mothers to demanding that an exit +strategy be established for the withdrawal of British forces. Yet among our top brass, the general perception is that the +Prime Minister has little interest in the war. +• It is often as if Brown regards the Afghan campaign as a dead fish that Tony Blair has left in the top drawer of his +Downing Street desk. It has infected his premiership with a foul odour, and he wants to be rid of it as soon as possible. +This explains his promise, on Monday, to set a timetable for the withdrawal of British troops at the earliest available +opportunity. The signal is sent that an exit is not just in sight, but being approached. +• Brown's approach hardly squares with his Foreign Secretary's assertion, made the next day in his address to Nato's +Parliamentary Assembly, that British forces should remain until the Afghans are strong enough to take care of their own +affairs. Miliband might have his faults, such as his obsessive enthusiasm for Europe. But he is sound on Afghanistan +where — unlike the prime minister — he has been an articulate and well-informed advocate of the Nato cause. One has +the feeling that, if Mr Obama were able to talk about Afghanistan, Mr Miliband could have a decent conversation with +him. +But the very fact that these policy divisions are now starting to appear in London is symptomatic of a far deeper +malaise that lies at the heart of Afghan policy-making; it is a malaise that now threatens to jeopardise the success of the +entire mission. And this malaise is the absence of meaningful dialogue between the White House and its hitherto most +stalwart and reliable ally, particularly when it comes to the messy business of confronting Islamist militants through +force of arms. +• We all had a good giggle when Brown was reduced to chasing the Leader of the Free World through the +subterranean kitchen complex at the UN's New York headquarters in September. One can understand why Obama can +think of a million better ways to spend his time than talking to our obsessive, nail-chewing and electorally doomed +prime minister. But given that Britain and America are currently fighting a war together; one would hope that the true +statesman would overcome any personal reservations and deal with Mr Brown because of the country he represents. +What really troubles British policymakers is that the collapse in the relationship is institutional, not personal, and +that the president has little interest in listening to what Britain has to say on many world issues, even at a time when +British servicemen and women are sacrificing their lives in what is supposed to be a common cause. +• The astonishing disregard with which Mr Obama treats Britain has been made clear by his deliberations over the +Afghan issue. As he decides how many more troops to send to Afghanistan — a decision which will fundamentally affect +the scope of the mission — Britain is reduced to guesswork. The White House does not even pretend to portray this as a +joint decision. It is a diplomatic cold-shouldering that stands in contrast not just to the Blair–Bush era, but to the +togetherness of the soldiers on the ground. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 +One of the enduring cornerstones of the transatlantic alliance is the deep bond that exists between the British and +American armed forces. The strength of the American military might be many times that available to Britain but, as any +senior officer will tell you, on either side of the Atlantic, they are so close as to be joined at the hip. From the moment +they sign up, young American and British officers train together, socialise together and — since 9/11 — have fought and +died together. +• The relaxed familiarity between the two martial traditions was reflected in the warmth with which General Stanley +McChrystal, the American commander of Nato forces in Afghanistan, referred during his recent visit to London to British +contemporaries such as `Jatko', General Sir Michael Jackson, former head of the British army, and lamby', Lt-Gen Sir +Graeme Lamb, who is currently spending his well-earned retirement in Kabul helping to devise a new counter- +insurgency strategy to defeat the Taleban. So far as Afghanistan is concerned, it would be fair to say that American and +British military commanders are singing from the same Afghan prayer mat. +• Indeed, there was no shortage of enthusiasm on the part of the British military, or any of the other Whitehall +departments involved in the Afghan campaign, to support Obama when he announced last March a new counter- +insurgency strategy based on an Iraq-like military 'surge'. McChrystal was personally appointed by Obama to make the +policy a success, and General Sir David Richards, himself a former commander of Nato forces in Afghanistan, was one of +a number of senior army officers who quickly got behind the new initiative. So, too, did the redoubtable Sir Sherard +Cowper-Coles, our former ambassador to Kabul, who drafted numerous briefing documents making the case for greater +co-operation and cohesion within Whitehall, and the development of a comprehensive counter-terrorism strategy that +encompassed all the participants, and not just the military. +So where are they now, all these bright initiatives? Why is it that the Foreign.Office and our senior military +commanders are as much in the dark as anyone else as to what the strategy for Afghanistan is to be? We don't know, +because Mr Obama is too busy cosying up to his new churns in Moscow and Beijing to tell us. And as we stumble around +in the policy darkness, there is the inevitable tendency to make it up as we go along. Hence the conflicting policy edicts +issued this week by Messrs Brown and Miliband. +• The trouble started in the summer, when Obama appears to have had a change of heart and, rather than +proceeding with the Afghan strategy he announced in March, decided to undertake a review of it instead. And in the +process of so doing he has provided us with a telling insight into how we can expect the Obama presidency to function in +future. +Much of the criticism, at home and abroad, concerning the Afghan policy review has tended to focus on +accusations of White House dithering which, after nearly three and a half months, is not entirely without foundation. +But what should be far more worrying for all those countries, such as Britain, that had looked forward to co-operating +with Obama's apparent desire to reach out and engage with America's allies is the exclusivity of his style of decision- +making — if you can call it that. +As General McChrystal has found to his cost, Obama and his inner circle of Chicago pols do not take kindly to being +second-guessed by those whose advice they seek, but have every right to reject. There is no reason to doubt +McChrystal's gloomy prediction — which is generally endorsed by Whitehall — that without an extra 40,000 Nato troops +the Afghan mission is doomed to failure. But talk to any Obama aide these days and they will tell you that, fine soldier +though he undoubtedly is, McChrystal is politically naive, spoke out of turn and now thoroughly regrets the day he ever +set foot in a London think tank, where he stated his case too explicitly for the White House's liking. One recent two-hour +Afghan strategy meeting spent 24 minutes discussing whether McChrystal was the right man for the job after all. In +other words, to use the phrase- °logy popular in Chicago, he's dead meat. +• Obama, meanwhile, has made his own deliberations so secretive that only about three people in the whole of +Washington — and, ergo, the rest of the world — know precisely what he has in mind, and none of them is talking. Even +President George \N. Bush, who was frequently criticised for his arrogance and unilateralism, was better than this. From +9/11 until the Iraq war, he kept Tony Blair and other trusted allies (there weren't that many, let's face it) fully briefed on +what he was planning — so much so that Blair is now accused of colluding with him to invade Iraq from the spring of +2002. +• But with Obama there are no regular video-conferences bringing Downing Street up to date on the latest White +House thinking. No special envoys making secret visits to London to keep the key players informed. Instead we will have +to wait, like everyone else, for the puffs of smoke from the White House — which are now expected around the +Thanksgiving holiday — to find out what Obama really intends to do about Afghanistan. He is, in all too many ways, an +AWOL ally. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 +Nor is it just on Afghanistan that we can discern a high-handed approach from the American president. Did Obama +bother to consult Britain before cancelling the missile shield system for Eastern Europe (the early-warning detection +system is, after all, based at RAF Fylingdales on the North Yorkshire Moors)? No he did not. The Poles, who are rightly +sensitive about their security being used as a bargaining chip in negotiations with their super-power neighbours, had to +make do with a late-night call from Hillary Clinton on the eve of the announcement — the Poles understandably turned +down the call, a breach of both manners and protocol. In his keenness to befriend Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, +had Obama taken any account of the widespread European unease concerning the mood of resurgent nationalism +sweeping Moscow? Not a chance. +• And to judge from his recent peregrinations around the Far East, it seems Obama is far more interested in making +new friends than taking the trouble to keep up with old acquaintances. The enthusiasm he displayed when he bumped +into Dmitry Medvedev, Russia's Prime Minister, during this week's Apec summit in Singapore was considerably greater +than he has shown for many of his European allies. Not for Medvedev the indignity of conducting important bilateral +discussions in kitchens surrounded by vats of boiling noodles. And in Beijing Obama spent a convivial evening with +President Hu Jintao, discussing the evolution and histories of China and America. Being an American ally has never +seemed so unrewarding. +• There will, though, inevitably come a time when Obama discovers who America's true friends really are. Sooner or +later he will have to deal with the considerably more taxing issues of Islamist militancy, rogue nuclear states and other +tangible threats to the West's security. At that point, Obama will discover a simple but essential truth. The world divides +between those who support American values of freedom and democracy, and those who seek to destroy them. +• Few nations have been more committed to supporting those values with both blood and treasure than Britain. This +country, and especially those British troops fighting alongside their American counterparts, deserve far better than this +president's disregard. +• Con Coughlin is the Daily Telegraph's executive foreign editor and author of Khomeini's Ghost: Iran since 1979 +(Macmillan). +• The Spectator, 22 Old Queen Street, London, SW1H 9HP.

And we – the Americans, the British – have never really recovered from that because of +course there was no smoking gun."" +The US had first prepared for invasion in January but the date was later moved to March. ""Ail that said, when you looked +at the timetable for the inspections, it was impossible to see how [Hans] Biix [chief weapons inspector] could bring the +process to a conclusion, for better or for worse, by March."" +Meyer said he had been in favour of removing Saddam. He thought you did not need 9/11 or weapons of mass +destruction to justify confronting Iraq. Saddam had not lived up to the commitments given after the first Gulf war. He +had ""the means and the will"" to build weapons even if he hid not have them at the time. +Meyer said he did not know what made the UK fix ""on a very large land force by our standards"". He believed it would +not have damaged Britain's standing in the US to have sent fewer troops to Iraq, but actively opposing the war would +have done. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760453 Date: 06/30/2015 +Earlier Meyer said George Bush's administration was seen by many as ""running out of steam"" on the eve of the ""great +atrocity"" of the 9/11 attacks on the US. +It looked like an administration that had run into trouble very quickly, the former ambassador to Washington said. +People were saying the effort of getting big tax cuts and medical prescription benefits for older people through Congress +had ""killed"" Bush, Meyer said. He added that secretary of state Colin Powell's efforts to narrow and deepen sanctions +against Iraq had failed and there was a ""huge bear market"" against Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary. +Meyer said attitudes towards Iraq were influenced to an extent not appreciated by him at the time by the anthrax scare +in the US soon after 9/11 . US senators and others were sent +anthrax spores in the post, a crime that led to the death of five people, prompting policymakers to claim links to Saddam +Hussein. +Meyer told the third day of Sir John Chilcot's hearings that from the onset of the Bush presidency in 2001, there was +enthusiasm on the Republican right for arming and supporting Iraqi dissidents, ""mostly in London"", particularly the Iraqi +National Congress led by Ahmad Chalabi. +Powell was sceptical of such ""belligerent"" moves, concentrating on sanctions with Robin Cook, the then-British foreign +secretary, with whom, Meyer said, ""somewhat to my surprise"", he got on well. +On 9/11 Condoleezza Rice, then the US national security adviser, told Meyer she was in ""no doubt: it was an al-Qaida +operation"". The following weekend Bush and his key advisers met at Camp David and contacts later told Meyer there +had been a ""big ding-dong"" about Iraq and Saddam. +It seemed that Paul Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld's deputy, argued for retaliation to include Iraq, Meyer said. It was not clear +where Rumsfeld stood. But later that month Bush and Tony Blair, on a visit to Washington, were agreed on a ""laser-like +focus"" on al-Qaida and Pakistan. +Blair's reputation had soared ""above all others"" because of his support for the US, the former ambassador told the +inquiry. +But the anthrax scare had ""steamed up"" policy makers in Bush's administration and helped swing attitudes against +Saddam, who the administration believed had been the last person to use anthrax. +Rice fell more and more ""in the camp of Powell's enemies"". There was a ""sea change"" in attitudes to containment but +the UK still had ""a legal problem"" with regime change.

Please let me know what you think: +Statement by the Secretary +On the Restoration of Democratic and Constitutional Order In Honduras November 27, 2009 +The United States remains committed to help restore the democratic and constitutional order in Honduras in the wake +of the June 28 coup d'etat that removed President Zelaya and led to the suspension of Honduras from the Organization +of American States. As part of that effort, it is essential for both parties in Honduras to implement the measures they +agreed to in the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord, including the formation of a government of unity and national +reconciliation and the December 2 congressional vote on President Zelaya""s restitution. These are vital elements of the +Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord, and the Honduran people and the international community expect an expeditious +determination. We look forward to the Congressional deliberations getting underway as announced. +The November 29 national elections are another critical step in the restoration of the democratic and constitutional +order in Honduras. The electoral process -- launched well before June 28 and involving legitimate candidates +representing parties with longstanding democratic traditions from a broad ideological spectrum -- is conducted under +the stewardship of the non-partisan Supreme Electoral Tribunal, which was also selected before the coup. The electoral +renewal of presidential, congressional and mayoral mandates, enshrined in the Honduran constitution, is an inalienable +expression of the sovereign will of the citizens of Honduras. We wish the Honduran people well as they choose their +new leaders on Sunday, and we urge all sides to exercise their rights peacefully. +The holding of a free, fair and transparent election is necessary but not sufficient for Honduras to reestablish the +democratic and constitutional order. In order to help achieve that objective, we will continue, along with others in the +region, to support the step-by-step implementation of the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord as a democratic way forward for +the Honduran people. The president-elect who emerges from an election deemed free and fair will have a unique +opportunity to promote that vital mission. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760464 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1179,C05760465,EGYPT,Burnswj@state.gov,H,80,2009-11-27T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05760465/C05760465.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Egypt,'Burnswj@state.gov',H ,"Sullivan, Jacob J","Friday, November 27, 2009 6:48 AM",F-2014-20439,C05760465,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Great news.

""Women in the World: Stories and Solutions,"" will be hosted by The Daily Beast, the United Nations Foundation, +Vital Voices Global Partnership, and Diane von Furstenberg (and sponsored by Hewlett Packard who will bring their most +creative digital support). +We are delighted to announce that for our opening night on Friday, March 12, at the Hudson Theatre in Manhattan, we +have an extraordinary event planned. The legendary Broadway director Julie Taymor has agreed to direct the Vital +Voices play Seven, featuring acclaimed film and stage actresses. At the conclusion of this performance, we will host a +panel conversation featuring their real-life counterparts: Hafsat Abiola, Farida Azizi, Anabella De Leon, Inez McCormack, +Mukhtar Mai, Mu Sochua, and Marina Pisklakova-Parker. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760483 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760483 Date: 06/30/2015 +Madame Secretary, we would very much like to dedicate this performance to your lifelong efforts on behalf of women +around the world. Melanne tells me that you have not seen the play, and there is no doubt that with the caliber of +actresses that Taymor has in mind, this will be its most sensational performance ever. If there was also any chance that +you would be able to moderate a panel afterwards that set the agenda for our weekend's discussions, it would be a +superbly valuable call to arms for an audience of influential decision makers, international media, and committed +philanthropists. +The Women in the World weekend will showcase vivid, powerful, and deeply personal testimony through first-person +storytelling, films, performances, exhibits, and interviews. The goal is not only to make these issues vivid, but to provide +a concrete outcome at the end, through projects we will sponsor and through commitments we have won from the +influential women who are present. Some of the topics will +be: Women in Afghanistan and Pakistan, Rape as a Tool of War, Women as Peacemakers, and Girl Up - The United +Nations Foundation's Campaign to Keep Teenage Girls in School. +Expected participants to date are: Her Majesty Queen Rania of Jordan, Ambassador Luis CdeBaca, Under Secretary of +State for Democracy and Global Affairs Maria Otero, Washington D.C.

""Their energies are +misdirected."" +At issue is the detection by American intelligence agencies of a suspicious missile test on April 23 — a test never +announced by the Pakistanis — that appeared to give the country a new offensive weapon. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760490 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760490 Date: 06/30/2015 +American military and intelligence officials say they suspect that Pakistan has modified the Harpoon antiship missiles +that the United States sold the country in the 1980s, a move that would be a violation of the Arms Control Export Act. +Pakistan has denied the charge, saying it developed the missile itself. The United States has also accused Pakistan of +modifying American-made P-3C aircraft for land-attack missions, another violation of United States law that the Obama +administration has protested. +Whatever their origin, the missiles would be a significant new entry into Pakistan's arsenal against India. They would +enable Pakistan's small navy to strike targets on land, complementing the sizable land-based missile arsenal that +Pakistan has developed. That, in turn, would be likely to spur another round of an arms race with India that the United +States has been trying, unsuccessfully, to halt. ""The focus of our concern is that this is a potential unauthorized +modification of a maritime antiship defensive capability to an offensive land-attack missile,"" said another senior +administration official, who also spoke on the condition of anonymity because the matter involves classified +information. +""The potential for proliferation and end-use violations are things we watch very closely,"" the official added. ""When we +have concerns, we act aggressively."" +A senior Pakistani official, also speaking on the condition of anonymity because the interchanges with Washington have +been both delicate and highly classified, said the American accusation was ""incorrect."" The official said that the missile +tested was developed by Pakistan, just as it had modified North Korean designs to build a range of land-based missiles +that could strike India. He said that Pakistan had taken the unusual step of agreeing to allow American officials to inspect +the country's Harpoon inventory to prove that it had not violated the law, a step that administration officials praised. +Some experts are also skeptical of the American claims. Robert Hewson, editor of Jane's Air Launched Weapons, a +yearbook and Web-based data service, said the Harpoon missile did not have the necessary range for a land-attack +missile, which would lend credibility to Pakistani claims that they are developing their own new missile. Moreover, he +said, Pakistan already has more modern land-attack missiles that it developed itself or acquired from China. +""They're beyond the need to reverse-engineer old U.S. kit,"" Mr. Hewson said in a telephone interview. ""They're more +sophisticated than that."" Mr. Hewson said the ship-to-shore missile that Pakistan was testing was part of a concerted +effort to develop an array of conventional missiles that could be fired from the air, land or sea to address India's much +more formidable conventional missile arsenal. +The dispute highlights the level of mistrust that remains between the United States and a Pakistani military that +American officials like to portray as an increasingly reliable partner in the effort to root out the forces of the Taliban and +Al Qaeda on Pakistani territory. A central element of the American effort has been to get the military refocused on the +internal threat facing the country, rather than on threat the country believes it still faces from India. +Pakistani officials have insisted that they are making that shift. But the evidence continues to point to heavy investments +in both nuclear and conventional weapons that experts say have no utility in the battle against insurgents. +Over the years, the United States has provided a total of 165 Harpoon missiles to Pakistan, including 37 of the older- +model weapons that were delivered from 1985 to 1988, said Charles Taylor, a spokesman for the Defense Security +Cooperation Agency. +The country's nuclear arsenal is expanding faster than any other nation's. In May, Pakistan conducted a test firing of its +Babur medium-range cruise missile, a weapon that military experts say could potentially be tipped with a nuclear +warhead. The test was conducted on May 6, during a visit to Washington by President Asif All Zardari, but was not made +public by Pakistani officials until three days after the meetings had ended to avoid upsetting the talks. While it may be +technically possible to arm the Harpoons with small nuclear weapons, outside experts say it would probably not be +necessary. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760490 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760490 Date: 06/30/2015 +Before Congress departed for its summer recess, administration officials briefed crucial legislators on the protest to +Pakistan. The dispute has the potential to delay or possibly even derail the legislation to provide Pakistan with $7.5 +billion in civilian aid over five years; lawmakers are scheduled to vote on the aid package when they return from their +recess next month. +The legislation is sponsored by Senators John Kerry of Massachusetts and Richard G.

Enclosed below story on Chilcot: +http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/nov/29/iraq-war-inquiry-chilcot-blair +Chilcot Inquiry: Mandarins take revenge on Tony Blair over Iraq Civil servants and diplomats are lining up to stick a knife +into former PM's reputation +* Toby Helm and Rajeev Syal + +* The Observer , Sunday 29 November 2009 +* Whitehall mandarins are supreme masters of subtle evasion. But they do not rise to the top of their trade without +also knowing how to stick in the knife. +At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, which opened last week, resembled a +gentlemen's club moved to the sanitised surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Westminster. +Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment politely questioned other Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment +about who said what to whom in which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open and +closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the world. +Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another Whitehall +whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will not +seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows +how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and career +civil servants over the way Tony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted +to oust Saddam Hussein, bypassing the ""official channels"" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. +Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden themselves — +finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like +salami day after day. +Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday that the +threat from Saddam's,supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. +In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. ""We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical weapons +might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq +might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."" +Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference to the +case for war. ""I don't think it invalidated the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use,"" he said. But +he had set the tone. +On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already criticised the +government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of +Margaret Thatcher. ""I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite often I. think about this: +what would Margaret Thatcher have done?"" Meyer asked. ""I think she would have insisted on a coherent political and +diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you +removed Saddam Hussein."" +A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair +had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. ""We could have achieved more by playing a +tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, +that I will not be able to take part in any military operation unless we have palpable progress on the [Middle East] peace +process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature +— it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the nature of American planning."" +Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with +Washington's, Meyer added: ""I wouldn't say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760498 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760498 Date: 06/30/2015 +On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to +resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: ""I regard our participation in the +military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically +observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the majority of people inside the +UK."" +Today new arguments are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive +documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the +lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, unless all such +material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. +But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing testimony +could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy + adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo +which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. According to reports, +the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January +which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to carry out an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass +destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that +Blair made to parliament afterwards that Saddarn would be given a final chance to disarm. +The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly low over +Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America +and Britain. +Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more +than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's +evidence that Meyer received ""new instructions"" in early 2005 indicating that it was a ""complete waste of time"" to +oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. +On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, +the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence +committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to +office in 2001 that there were ""voices"" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told +the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush +that he would support military action ""to bring about regime change"". +According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as ""scrambling to establish a link +between Iraq and al-Qaida"" — a connection that was ""so far, frankly unconvincing"". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the +Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military +planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and +what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of +intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons. +After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral +the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General Sir +Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser +to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the +conflict. +The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who +will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. +When Chilcot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including Jack +Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the highly +controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry — in +January. +In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute +blame. But after only one week it is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. +The Washington Post +Afghanistan: The speech you'll miss +By Jim Hoagland +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760498 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760498 Date: 06/30/2015 +Sunday, November 29, 2009 +Dec. 1, 2009: +My fellow Americans, +This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech for the +only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. +Which is: steamed. +1 want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. +First, to let those know-it-alls, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one more thing: This is the last big troop +increase you get, so make it work. +! am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency. This is not July 1965, when +Westmoreland jumped the shark of escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. For all the +trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the shadowboxing that dominated my long war +council meetings. +Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to be characterized in the media as being +ready to bug out now. This helped us push back against McChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 addrtional U.S. +soldiers. +Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just saying I +should promote Denis? Maybe it was Denis? +Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number of, say, 23,000 new combat troops, +5,000 additional trainers and a ""NATO surge"" of 5,000 foreign troops. +That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech without losing the left of the Democratic Party -- +while being able to refute John McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. +Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all credibility, and David Petraeus's performance +was dazzling. Which presents two big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could get the Republican nomination in +2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think ahead.) And if the generals box me in, civilian control of the +military in this country becomes a mockery. Clinton was afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to it. I've got to get +the right balance back. +That's why I need Bob Gates and Jim Jones. Those who scoffed at my keeping on Bush's defense secretary, and then +making a retired Marine four-star I hardly knew my NSC guy, were not thinking that moments like this would come. I +already was. +Gates has maneuvered flawlessly through my waterboarding-by-leaks on Afghanistan. He will sell my final number to the +uniforms as the ""floor"" for U.S. troops that Petraeus argues we need for three years. But Gates knows I will make it a +ceiling. +We can't afford an open-ended commitment. I put Peter Orszag, as good a budget overseer as you can find, front and +center for the photographers in that last war council. Many missed it, but NBC's Andrea Mitchell got it right away. No +wonder she's married to Alan Greenspan. +I will bet that Stan McChrystaI never drew up a budget in his life. +Jones tells me these Special Operations commanders are used to getting whatever they ask for, especially since +September 11th. Nobody on the Hill will deny them anything. +Jones is also squeezing the Europeans to join the battle and is getting results, even from the Germans. What is it Jones +says? Maybe the worst thing of all would be to be perceived to lose in Afghanistan and then have the Europeans say: +Well, you never asked for more help at the crucial time. Makes sense to me. +We have sent NATO members the numbers we think they can and should provide, country by country. That new +secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, is pulling out the stops, visiting the capitals to get commitments. +""Say it now, pay it later,"" we tell the Europeans. They have until mid-2010 to deploy their new units. But I need pledges +now so !can get across tonight that this is NATO's war, not Obama's war. That's unspoken-goal number three. +So I have frontloaded the speech with allusions to this being about an exit strategy, without boxing myself in on timing, +and am presenting the ""civilian surge"" as being as essential as the troop buildup. That helps set up my Oslo speech. And +who knows? it may even work out that way. If God blesses us all. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760498 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1199,C05760499,ANOTHER MEMO ON BACKDROP TO THIS WEEK.

""I think she would have insisted on a coherent political and +diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you +removed Saddam Hussein."" +A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair +had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. ""We could have achieved more by playing a +tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, +that I will not be able to take part in any military operation unless we have palpable progress on the [Middle East] peace +process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature +— it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the nature of American planning."" +Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with +Washington's, Meyer added: ""I wouldn't.say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that."" +On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to +resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: ""I regard our participation in the +military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically +observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the majority of people inside the +IJK."" +Today new argurnents'are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive +documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the +lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, unless all such +material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. +But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing testimony +could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy + adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo +which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. According to reports, +the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January +which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to carry out an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass +destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that +Blair made to parliament afterwards that Saddam would be given a final chance to disarm. +The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly low over +Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America +and Britain. +Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more +than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's +evidence that Meyer received ""new instructions"" in early 2005 indicating that it was a ""complete waste of time"" to +oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. +On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office IVIiddle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, +the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence +committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to +office in 2001 that there were ""voices"" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told +the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush +that he would support military action ""to bring about regime change"". +According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as ""scrambling to establish a link +between Iraq and al-Qaida"" — a connection that was ""so far, frankly unconvincing"". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the +Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military +planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and +what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of +intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760499 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760499 Date: 06/30/2015 +After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral +the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General Sir +Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser +to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the +conflict. +The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who +will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. +When Chi!cot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including Jack +Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the highly +controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry — in +January. +In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute +blame. But after only one week it is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. +The Washington Post +Afghanistan: The speech you'll miss +By Jim Hoagiand +Sunday, November 29, 2009 +Dec. 1, 2009: +My fellow Americans, +This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech for the +only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. +Which is: steamed. +I want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. +First, to let those know-it-ails, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one more thing: This is the last big troop +increase you get, so make it work. +I am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency. This is not July 1965, when +Westmoreland jumped the shark of escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. For all the +trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the shadowboxing that dominated my long war +council meetings. +Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to be characterized in the media as being +ready to bug out now. This helped us push back against McChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 additional U.S. +soldiers. +Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just saying I +should promote Denis? Maybe it was Denis? +Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number of, say, 23,000 new combat troops, +5,000 additional trainers and a ""NATO surge"" of 5,000 foreign troops. +That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech without losing the left of the Democratic Party -- +while being able to refute John McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. +Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all credibility, and David Petraeus's performance +was dazzling. Which presents two big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could get the Republican nomination in +2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think ahead.) And if the generals box me in, civilian control of the +military in this country becomes a mockery. Clinton was afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to it. I've got to get +the right balance back. +That's why I need Bob Gates and Jim Jones. Those who scoffed at my keeping on Bush's defense secretary, and then +making a retired Marine four-star I hardly knew my NSC guy, were not thinking that moments like this would come. I +already was. +Gates has maneuvered flawlessly through my waterboarding-by-leaks on Afghanistan. He will sell my final number to the +uniforms as the ""floor"" for U.S. troops that Petraeus argues we need for three years. But Gates knows I will make it a +ceiling. +We can't afford an open-ended commitment. I put Peter Orszag, as good a budget overseer as you can find, front and +center for the photographers in that last war council. Many missed it, but NBC's Andrea Mitchell got it right away. No +wonder she's married to Alan Greenspan. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760499 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760499 Date: 06/30/2015 +I will bet that Stan McChrystal never drew up a budget in his life. +Jones tells me these Special Operations commanders are used to getting whatever they ask for, especially since +September 11th. Nobody on the Hill will deny them anything. +Jones is also squeezing the Europeans to join the battle and is getting results, even from the Germans. What is it Jones +says? Maybe the worst thing of all would be to be perceived to lose in Afghanistan and then have the Europeans say: +Well, you never asked for more help at the crucial time. Makes sense to me. +We have sent NATO members the numbers we think they can and should provide, country by country. That new +secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, is pulling out the stops, visiting the capitals to get commitments. +""Say it now, pay it later,"" we tell the Europeans. They have until mid-2010 to deploy their new units. But I need pledges +now so I can get across tonight that this is NATO's war, not Obama's war. That's unspoken-goal number three. +So I have frontloaded the speech with allusions to this being about an exit strategy, without boxing myself in on timing, +and am presenting the ""civilian surge"" as being as essential as the troop buildup. That helps set up my Oslo speech. And +who knows? It may even work out that way.

Britain and Europe are riveted by Chi;cot, especially official circles. The objective correlative, of +course, is trust in any U.S. administration and deep skepticism about the Afghanistan project. Yet another undercurrent +among the mandarins is disdainful resentment of indifference to Britain, a sentiment beyond Labour or the Tories but +what has emerged as the view of the permanent establishment at Whitehall and elsewhere. +Mandelson Watch: After Miliband declined to reach for the EU foreign secretaryship (though Sarkozy wanted him to +take it and Brown was not averse, even favorable), Mandelson personally campaigned on his own for it among the +Europeans. Mandelson was eager to Miliband to take the EU post, allowing Mandelson to be appointed foreign +minister. When Miliband refused, MandeIson's ambition was thwarted, and tried to seize the EU position for himself, +but without any backing in Europe or from Gordon. The Europeans thought him mad. Suddenly, they recalled his bad or +strange behavior as UK commissioner to the EU. When Christine Ashton was named, Mandelson briefed the press on her +lack of credentials, etc. Ashton, as it happens, had worked the press to try to help Mandelson when he had gotten into +the mess that led to his first resignation. Those inside the government who remember this see it as an illustration of the +principle that no good deed goes unpunished. Mandelson, in a snit, is now not speaking to Gordon as though his +rejection were Gordon's fault. +One more item: Did you read Jim Hoagland in the Washington Post today? He nails McDonough for trashing Biden, +among other things. Enclosed below story on Chilcot: +http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/nov/29/iraq-war-inquiry-chilcot-blair +Chilcot Inquiry: Mandarins take revenge on Tony Blair over Iraq Civil servants and diplomats are lining up to stick a knife +into former PM's reputation +* Toby Helm and Rajeev Syal + +* The Observer , Sunday 29 November 2009 +* Whitehall mandarins are supreme masters of subtle evasion. But they do not rise to the top of their trade without +also knowing how to stick in the knife. +At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, which opened last week, resembled a +gentlemen's club moved to the sanitised surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Westminster. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760500 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760500 Date: 06/30/2015 +Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment politely questioned other Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment +about who said what to whom in which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open and +closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the world. +Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John ChiIcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another Whitehall +whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will not +seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows +how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and career +civil servants over the way Tony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted +to oust Saddam Hussein, bypassing the ""official channels"" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. +Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden themselves — +finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like +salami day after day. +Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday that the +threat from Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. +In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. ""We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical weapons +might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq +might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."" +Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference to the +case for war. ""I don't think it invalidated the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use,"" he said. But +he had set the tone. +On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already criticised the +government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of +Margaret Thatcher. ""I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite often I think about this: +what would Margaret Thatcher have done?"" Meyer asked.

""We could have achieved more by playing a +tougher role... if, for example...

We should congratulate the Honduran people, we should connect +today's vote to the deep democratic vocation of the Honduran people, and we should call on the community of +democratic nations (and especially those of the Americas) to recognize, respect, and respond to this accomplishment of +the Honduran people. +Finally, this Administration, which worked so hard to manage and resolve this crisis, should be the one who defines the +results and perceptions of today's vote, and not our critics on the Hill (who had no clear pathway to elections) or our +adversaries in the region (who never wanted this day to happen). +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760551 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1240,C05760552,HONDURAS ELECTIONS,sullivanjj@state.gov,H,80,2009-11-29T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05760552/C05760552.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Honduras elections,'sullivanjj@state.gov',H ,,"Sunday, November 29, 2009 9:32 PM",F-2014-20439,C05760552,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Ok,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760552 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: H +Sent: Sunday, November 29, 2009 9:32 PM +To: 'sullivanjj@state.gov' +Subject: Re: Honduras elections +Ok +Original Message +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +To: H +Sent: Sun Nov 29 21:29:31 2009 +Subject: Honduras elections +The team proposes to put out the following statement in Ian's name tonight.

Fewer than one in four disapprove. +""Nine in 10 Democrats approve of Clinton -- that's no surprise,"" said Keating Holland, CNN's polling director. ""But by a 50 percent to 43 +percent margin, Republicans also think she is doing a good job at the State Department. That's an interesting result for a polarizing +figure like Clinton."" +The poll's release comes as Clinton teams up with Mexican officials to kick off weeks of meetings intended to find ways to fight drug +violence on both sides of the U.S.-Mexican border. The Obama administration on Tuesday announced a major increase in security +funding and agent deployments along the border.

""The +secretary maintains close ties with her former colleagues on Capitol Hill and meets regularly with congressional leaders."" +The former first lady, senator from New York and one-time primary rival to Obama already has clocked close to 60,000 miles in her first +two trips overseas -- one journey to China, the other to the Middle East and Europe -- since becoming secretary of state in January. +Clinton was met by large crowds and warmly received by world leaders on both trips, although ""she met some criticism in Beijing, where +she was criticized for a lower-key approach that seemed to downplay the importance of human rights in the overall relationship with +China,"" Labott said. +""Her aides said she wanted a new approach to dealing with China's human rights record, including less public criticism and more +private discussions, which may prove more productive in changing Chinese behavior."" +Clinton's approval rating is higher than that of her boss: The same CNN/Opinion Research poll put Obama's approval rating at 64 +percent, 7 percentage points lower than Clinton's. +Clinton has a couple of advantages over Obama in public opinion today, Holland said. +36 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760590 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760590 Date: 06/30/2015 +""She hasn't had a prominent role in the administration's economic or budget policies,"" he said.

How did he and his vaunted political machine go from ""No Drama Obama"" to +bailout bonus blunders, Tim Geithner death watches and Special Olympic insults in less than two +months? • +The easy answer is that circumstances have changed, and there is a lot of truth to that. Governing is +fundamentally different than campaigning—particularly in the pressure cooker of an economic +meltdown. But that's exactly why I would argue that the president's escalating execution troubles are +really a function of what has largely stayed the same since the election--the mismatched, +understaffed team of loyalists around him. +Indeed, as best I can tell, Obama has more than a Geithner problem. He has what I would call a +Rumsfeld problem. That is to say, in the infamous words of the imperious defense secretary, the +president made the mistake of going to economic war with the army he had—which was built for +political speed and presidential comfort—instead of the army he needs to beat back the crisis of +confidence that is crippling our markets and feeding the AIG blood lust. +This is not a question of having good personnel. Obama had some of the best minds working in +politics and policy helping him take down Hillary Clinton and John McCain. And it's only natural he +would want to bring many of them into his White House to help run his government, much like most +every modern president has done. +•Rather, it's a question of having the right personnel in the right place to make the best case for +Obama's complicated and challenging economic agenda--and perhaps most important, to persuade +42 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760595 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760595 Date: 06/30/2015 +the American people to swallow their anger along with another round of distasteful but necessary +bailouts. +By that measure, if you step back and look at Obama's sales force, it seems pretty clear so far that +the president has the wrong mix of credibility, diversity and sensitivity for this seller's market. That's +true for Treasury, for the White House and, most acutely, across the airwaves. +Geithner, who joined Team Obama on the late side last November, has been the obvious poster child +for this problem. But he is far from alone. +Both Geithner and Larry Summers, who advised Obama during much of the campaign, have proven +to be ineffective and at times damaging advocates for the president's policies. That's in part because +of their uneven communications skills. But the bigger problem, critics on the right and left now agree, +is that these two brilliant experts are too close to the Wall Street elites they are trying to rescue to +procure the pound of contrition the public is demanding in exchange for more bailout money. Hence +the tin ear for AIG's gilded ripoff. +The White House's top talking heads have the opposite limitation: They are too removed from +workings of the financial system to speak credibly about it. +Press Secretary Robert Gibbs is by all accounts a talented political operative, who shone during the +campaign. But unlike some of his recent predecessors--such as Clinton spokesman Mike McCurry +(State Department) and Bush spokesman An Fleischer (House Ways and Means Committee)--Gibbs +does not have any high-level policy experience. And according to Clinton refugees I know who now +work on Wall Street, Gibbs' lack of financial literacy too often shows in his vague, halting answers to +tough bailout questions. That's not his fault. He's just the wrong fit for this trust-building role. +Obama's chief strategist, David Axelrod, has a similar knowledge deficit. To be sure, Axelrod is one of +the most intuitive and resonant message meisters in the country, and few are better at doing political +battle on the Sunday shows. But he has never worked in business or government, and just does not +have the facility or standing of a Leon Panetta or even a David Gergen to make the case for a +complex initiative like the bank rescue program the administration unveiled on Monday. +Obama is suffering from not having a Gergen--in more ways than one. Indeed, when it comes to +domestic issues, this White House often appears more a team of radicals than rivals. Forget about a +Republican counterweight in Obama's inner circle--there does not seem to be any evidence even of a +Democratic contrarian among the campaign loyalists and liberal acolytes in the West Wing. +That is to say, the kind of independent thinker who would have pushed Obama to veto the earmark- +laden, omnibus-pending bill that wound up making him look like a hypocrite; or to announce a list of +programs the president would be cutting or eliminating before he released his budget to show he was +serious about fiscal balance and discipline. Not to triangulate, but to reanimate the country-over-party +spirit Obama widely inspired last year and to reassure millions of centrist supporters who have +Understandable qualms about the dramatic expansion of deficit spending the president is pursuing. +That lack of perspective is compounded by the lack of people in key positions in major agencies. And +no one has paid a bigger price for that than Geithner, as Obama himself acknowledged in his 60 +Minutes interview Sunday. Without any top political appointees in place at Treasury, Geithner had no +one to bail him out on the AIG mess--to make up for his tone-deafness, monitor the bonus process +and prod him to nip the issue in the bud before it could explode into a capital-eating and capital- +wasting fireball. +43 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760595 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760595 Date: 06/30/2015 +The obvious solution to these sales force problems would be the kind of major shakeup Clinton +instituted following the collapse of his health care plan and the drubbings Democrats took in the 1994 +midterms, which brought in Panetta, Gergen and a handful of other old-hand pragmatists. Some will +say it's too early to press the eject button, but you could just as easily argue that this is not a learning +curve problem that is going to improve with time. +Nevertheless, it's just not realistic to expect Obama to take emergency measures now, especially +after the president unequivocally expressed his support for Geithner and the markets rallied around +the rollout of the Treasury secretary's toxic asset plan. So I would bet on Obama to opt for addition +over subtraction, and, instead of firing his top salesmen, to bring in more fine-tuned and effective +reinforcements to pitch Congress, the press and the public on his behalf. +Ideally, that would mean elevating someone like Paul Volcker, who is currently chairing Obama's +recovery advisory group, into the public face of the president's recovery program. The former Fed +chairman projects strength, confidence and legitimacy in ways that Geithner never could. He is not +tainted by the original Bush bailout packages. And he is clearly the most credible spokesman on +financial matters within the Obama orbit. +Best of all, because Volcker is already on the team, his elevation would be seen as a shift, not a +shakeup, and give Geithner breathing room to do his best wonk work. +The president would also be well-served, as long as the financial crisis is going on, to take some of +the burden off of Gibbs. One option: split the daily press briefings into two. Let Gibbs continue +handling the general part of the briefing, and then bring in a specialist to handle the economic portion +of the program. +Someone like McCurry, the gold standard of recent White House spokesmen; or, as one Clinton alum +suggested, Howard Schloss, a former assistant secretary for public affairs at the Treasury under +Clinton and now the head of communications for the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. +Splitting the briefing duties may seem a little unconventional. But these are hardly normal times. +Besides, you didn't see the White House press secretary doing the Pentagon briefings during the last +two wars with Iraq. +It's this general posture, more than any specific move, that will most help Obama reduce the drama, +reassert his primacy and, not least of all, avoid repeating the worst mistakes of the Rumsfeld reign. +We know too well what happens when a president sticks with the same ineffective team and the +same failed strategy purely out of loyalty and stubborness. +If this is no time for politics as usual, as the president has rightly said, it should be no time for political +staffing as usual, either.

We are endangered by +weak and failed states as well as by strong states. We are endangered by diseases and climate change emissions +half a world away. We are endangered when we allow chaos and crisis to create the conditions for ideologies of +radical hatred and violence to take root. And it is clear to all that meeting these global challenges will require +far more than our military: it will require a strengthened commitment to diplomacy and development. +To put this as simply and bluntly as possible, that's why passing a robust foreign affairs budget is a matter not +just of America's world leadership, but also of our national security. But don't take my word for it: +Ask our Secretary of Defense, Bob Gates. He said: ""What is clear to me is that there is a need for a dramatic +increase in spending on the civilian instruments of national security – diplomacy, strategic communications, +foreign assistance, civic action, and economic reconstruction and development."" +Ask our Secretary of State and former colleague, Hillary Clinton, who testified in her confirmation hearing that +""the relatively small but important amount of money we do spend on foreign aid is in the best interests of the +American people"" and ""promotes our national security and advances our interests and reflects our values."" +When our soldiers and generals join our top diplomats in demanding increased civilian capacity and increased +civilian funding—even in the midst of an economic crisis— that's when you know there is not just a growing +consensus, but a real sense of urgency behind strengthening our civilian mission. +Returning diplomacy and development to their rightful place cannot be achieved through words alone: It takes +money to drive civilian foreign policy—and if it keeps us safer, as I believe it will, then that is money well +spent. +Full funding of the President's international affairs budget is a vital step toward greater civilian capacity, and I +urge my colleagues to support it. That's why, along with Senators Lugar, Leahy, Voinovich, Durbin, Kaufman, +Menendez, Dodd, Feinstein, Brown, Sanders, Lieberman, Casey, and Corker, I ask for approval of this +amendment to restore $4 billion worth of funding to the President's FY 2010 international affairs budget request +for the Function 150 Account. The offset here will come from the Function 920 Account. +The reality is that right now, we are not doing nearly enough to invest in diplomacy and development. That's +the finding of numerous studies conducted inside and outside of government. Funding for the Department of +Defense is over half a trillion dollars. In 2008, the Army added about 7,000 soldiers to its total; that's more +people than serve in the entire American Foreign Service. 1,100 Foreign Service officers could be hired for the +cost of a single C-17 military cargo plane. And four billion dollars is less than two percent of what the +government has given to AIG. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F!2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015 +That is vital context for any discussion of the President's proposed increase in the international affairs +budget. The President requested $53.8 billion in FY 2010 to fund next year's budget—an increase of 8%, or $4 +billion, over last year's funding level of $49.8 billion. +We must recognize just what a small share of our overall spending the President's international affairs budget +comprises: 1.4% of the total FY 2010 Budget and only 6.8% of the ""national security budget,"" which includes +defense and homeland security. Even with this year's proposed increase in funding, the international affairs +budget still represents just 0.35% of GDP. This sliver of our budget funds all State Department operations, +foreign aid and foreign policy programs, our diplomatic programs, global health initiatives on HIV/AIDS, +Malaria and Tuberculosis programs, and humanitarian assistance to help stabilize fragile states, reduce global +poverty and assist refugees. +Some have described the President's request as a 41% increase from last year's budget of $38 billion, but that +simply isn't accurate: The figure of $38 billion doesn't include last year's supplemental appropriations, which +raise the total to nearly $50 billion. The President's FY 2010 budget includes supplemental +appropriations. That's why the actual increase is only $4 billion, or 8%. When we talk about changes in +spending, we have to compare apples to apples. +What's more, the President should be commended for following through on his pledge to enhance transparency +and improve fiscal discipline by shifting supplemental appropriations into a single budget. This is a more +straightforward way of doing business that doesn't seek to hide or massage spending figures by tucking extra +spending into supplemental bills. That is why my colleague Senator Conrad, the Chairman of the Budget +Committee, has been vocal in praising this new approach. +But the real question we are facing today is what will this extra $4 billion get us? This $4 billion will bring +vital foreign aid increases to programs in Pakistan and Afghanistan. This $4 billion will build civilian capacity +and put our diplomats back on the front lines of American foreign policy. This $4 billion will provide life +saving treatment for people with HIV/AIDS and supports broad prevention efforts that save lives every +day. This $4 billion will help make people all over the world safer, and in the process, it will help keep +America safer. +Of course, some will claim that in the midst of a global economic crisis, we do not have the luxury of leading on +the global stage. But this is precisely the moment when our investment is most needed—and it is also a +moment when our leadership and our economic system face the greatest challenge. And ultimately, efforts in +the developing world win us influence and respect, and they also contribute to the growth and stability of future +consumers of our products and future trading partners. +There is scarcely a corner of the globe where our efforts are not impacted by this budget: +In Afghanistan and Pakistan, we must finally reverse years of neglect and drift. +Imagine a nation as populous as Iraq, Afghanistan and North Korea—combined. A nation with a full arsenal of +nuclear weapons, and ballistic missiles capable of delivering them anywhere in a thousand- kilometer +range. Imagine a nation whose population is overwhelmingly moderate, overwhelmingly committed to +democracy and rule of law—but deeply suspicious of its leadership, and of America's friendship. Imagine a +nation in which Osama bin Laden and the leadership of Al Qaeda has found sanctuary for the past seven +years—a haven from which they and their confederates have plotted and carried out attacks on their host +country, on neighboring countries, and on sites around the globe. +This nation could serve the keystone for a new, cooperative relationship between the Western and Muslim +worlds—or become an epicenter for radicalism and violence on a cataclysmic scale. Now imagine that +17 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015 +America took a long, hard look at the status quo of our policy towards a nation at just such a crossroads—and +decided to do nothing different. +• We need a bold, new strategy for Pakistan: Our current path has not brought success, and simply tinkering +around the margins is guaranteed to fail. We have little choice but to think big. That is why President Obama +called on Congress to pass the Enhanced Partnership With Pakistan Act that Sen. Lugar and I will introduce +very soon: It will authorize $1.5 billion annually, in order to help shape a new relationship with +Pakistan. Without the full authorization of the President's budget, even a priority as vital as this one could be +shunted aside. +We are not the only ones vying for influence. You know who else understands clearly how powerful a weapon +foreign aid can be? Iran does. That's why after its proxy Hezbollah provoked Israel's bombing of Lebanon, +they painted the green Hezbollah flag on houses all over Lebanon—houses they plan to rebuild, largely with +Iranian money. If we don't spend money on aid, we are surrendering the field to those who do. +Nor can we afford to abandon our efforts against global AIDS. We know that PEPFAR has won America +friends and allies across Africa and the world we know that AIDS contributes to failed states, not to mention +incalculable human misery amongst the sick and dying and the orphans they leave behind—and that is why our +national interest and our moral interest demand that we deliver on our commitments at a moment of +crisis. Last year, both parties came together to authorize up to $48 billion over five years. Today, it is +imperative that we do all we can to fund these programs. If we don't, we will freeze enrollment of patients into +life-saving antiretroviral treatment. Meanwhile, prevention efforts –the most cost-effective way to stop AIDS +from ravaging a society—will be the first ones cut. And tragically, we know what will happen next: more +people will contract HIV, and more will die from AIDS-related illnesses. +Refugees and human rights advocates also need our help. Economic support funds are vital to support those +living inside countries with repressive regimes, like Burma and Zimbabwe. We know that refugees and +displaced populations can be the spark for large-scale violence, and today we face that very threat from the +millions displaced from homes in Iraq. Our Migration and Refugee Assistance is more important than ever to +help us provide immediate, effective assistance to these vulnerable populations. +Our international affairs budget will also have profound implications for another national security issue that will +only grow in importance: the threat of global climate change. This December, the global community will be +meeting in Copenhagen to create a new international agreement to address the urgent threat of global climate +change. The science is screaming at us: we have no time to lose if we hope to avert catastrophe. If we want to +persuade the developing nations of the world to do what is necessary and in all of our interests— we must help +them to respond now to the impacts of the crisis that are already being felt globally—and to preemptively make +the dramatic technological changes across their economies that this threat demands. +Our leverage at the negotiating table in Copenhagen will depend directly on our ability to offer a strong +financing package. Negotiators are meeting for an interim session this week in Bonn, and it is essential that we +send a clear signal that the United States Congress is serious about financing to support the commitments the +Obama Administration makes on the world stage—and serious about being part of the global solution to one of +the greatest threats we face. +We also need more diplomats and aid officers to troubleshoot on the front lines. The 2010 budget also marks +the first year of a new commitment to a significant increase in the size of the Foreign Service at both the State +Department and USAID. Today we are barely covering attrition rates. We have asked these agencies to +expand their missions and operations into new theaters like Iraq and Afghanistan—and we need to expand their +resources accordingly. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015 +Even as we face long-term security threats such as climate change, we must also address the immediate and +urgent threats of nuclear proliferation and nuclear terrorism. The President's budget provides additional +nonproliferation and counter-proliferation funding to secure nuclear materials around the world, and to fund +new and ongoing initiatives to build the counterterrorism capacity of partnering countries to do the +same. That's how you leverage our civilian spending to keep America safe. +Surveying the wide range of commitments and aspirations this budget addresses, it is clear that our challenge is +immense. And yet, even as we confront a crisis here at home, we cannot afford to delay the task of restoring our +leadership, returning to our best traditions of civilian outreach, and restoring our influence and authority. We +cannot afford to come up short on our promises to allies, to vulnerable populations, and to the world. We +cannot try to be a world leader on the cheap. If we fail to do our part to solve the world's problems, those +problems will eventually find us here at home. +From pandemics to climate change to failed states, this century's security challenges demand that a new level of +commitment to diplomacy and development. With this relatively small investment, we are making significant +strides toward restoring America's leadership role in the world. It will make the world safer, and it will make +us safer. And so I urge my colleagues to join me in supporting the President's budget request. +### +THE PRESIDING OFFICER: WHO YIELDS TIME IN OPPOSITION TO THE +AMENDMENT? +THE SENATOR FROM NORTH DAKOTA. +MR. CONRAD: MR. PRESIDENT, WHEN THE SENATOR APPROACHED ME ABOUT +THIS YESTERDAY, I TOLD HIM THAT I WOULD STRONGLY OPPOSE THIS +AMENDMENT. AND I TOLD HIM THAT BECAUSE THIS HAS BEEN HARD TO +PUT TOGETHER, AND WE'VE TRIED TO HAVE AN EQUAL SHARING OF +SACRIFICE BETWEEN ALL OF THE SPENDING ELEMENTS OF A BUDGET. +WE'VE TRIED TO DO IT WITH RESPECT TO DOMESTIC SPENDING, DEFENSE +SPENDING. WE'VE TRIED TO DO IT WITH MANDATORY SPENDING. AND +INTERNATIONAL IS A COMPONENT OF THE DISCRETIONARY SIDE OF THE +BUDGET, SO WE THOUGHT IT WAS ONLY FAIR THAT THEY BE ASKED TO +MAKE A CONTRIBUTION. NOW, WHEN I TOLD THE SENATOR YESTERDAY +THAT I WOULD STRONGLY RESIST THIS AMENDMENT, I DID NOT KNOW, I +WAS NOT AWARE THAT HE HAD AN OFFSET FOR THAT AM AMENDMENT, AND +THAT DOES ALTER THE SITUATION. THAT MAKES IT MORE PALATABLE +BECAUSE WE MAINTAIN THE SAME BOTTOM LINE. BUT IT DOES CONCERN +ME THAT WE ARE UPSETTING THE BALANCE OF WHAT I THINK IS A FAIR +DISTRIBUTION OF THE PAIN OF THE CUTBACKS THAT WE HAVE HAD TO +MAKE. AND I WANT TO BE VERY CLEAR ABOUT THAT. I AM CONCERNED +THAT, YOU KNOW, OTHER PARTS OF THE BUDGET ARE BEING ASKED TO +TAKE REDUCTIONS FROM THE PRESIDENT'S REQUEST AND NOW +INTERNATIONAL WILL NOT. SO I JUST WANT TO SAY, I FIND THAT +TROUBLING. I UNDERSTAND ABSOLUTELY THE SUBSTANCE OF THE +ARGUMENT THAT THE SENATOR IS MAKING, AND HE IS RIGHT TO MAKE +IT. HE IS CHAIRMAN OF THE FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEE, BUT I DO +HOPE THAT COLLEAGUES THINK CAREFULLY ABOUT KIND OF THE EQUITY +OF THE BURDEN HERE. THE EQUITY OF THE BURDEN. THE SECOND THING +I WANT TO SAY WITH RESPECT TO THIS AMENDMENT IS IT USES A 920 +OFFSET. AND WE CAME OUT OF THE COMMITTEE WITH ABOUT $7 BILLION +IN SAVINGS IN 920. THAT'S GENERAL OVERHEAD OF ALL OF THE +AGENCIES. IN OTHER WORDS, ITS A ACROSS THE BOARD -- IT'S ACROSS +THE BOARD, GOES TO THEIR OVERHEAD ACCOUNTS AND COULD WE TAKE +19 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760665 Date: 06/30/2015 +SOMEWHAT MORE IN 920? +YES, BUT NOT MUCH MORE. BUT NOT MUCH MORE. WE CAME OUT OF THE +COMMITTEE AT $7 BILLION. I'VE ALWAYS TRIED TO STAY AT ABOUT $10 +BILLION IN 920. THIS WOULD TAKE US TO $11 BILLION. AND SO I'M +TROUBLED BY THAT AS WELL. WITH THAT SAID, I DON'T -- I DON'T +INTEND TO OPPOSE THIS AMENDMENT, BUT I DO FIND IT TROUBLING ON +THOSE TWO GROUNDS. ONE, IT DOES AFFECT THE FAIRNESS OF THE +DISTRIBUTION OF THE PAIN, IF YOU WILL, OF THE CUTBACKS WE'VE +HAD TO MAKE. AND, NUMBER TWO, IT ADDS TO THE SECTION 920 +OFFSETS IN A WAY THAT, TO ME, TAKES IT A LITTLE PAST THE REALM +OF WHAT'S REASONABLE. BUT WITH THAT SAID, I DON'T INTEND TO +OPPOSE THIS AMENDMENT AND ASK COLLEAGUES TO VOTE AGAINST IT.

But he still needs to show more leadership, at +home and abroad +HILLARY CLINTON'S most effective quip, in her long struggle with Barack Obama for the +Democratic nomination last year, was that the Oval Office is no place for on-the-job +training. It went to the heart of the nagging worry about the silver-tongued young +senator from Illinois: that he lacked even the slightest executive experience, and that in +his brief career he had never really stood up to powerful interests, whether in his home +city of Chicago or in the wider world. Might Mrs Clinton have been right about her foe? +Not altogether. In foreign policy in particular Mr Obama has already done some +commendable things. He has held out a sincere hand to Iran; he has ordered +Guantanamo closed within a year; he has set himself firmly against torture. He has, as +the world and this newspaper wanted, taken a less strident tone in dealing with friends +and rivals alike. +But at home Mr Obama has had a difficult start. His performance has been weaker than +those who endorsed his candidacy, including this newspaper, had hoped. Many of his +strongest supporters—liberal columnists, prominent donors, Democratic Party +stalwarts—have started to question him. As for those not so beholden, polls show that +independent voters again prefer Republicans to Democrats, a startling reversal of +fortune in just a few weeks. Mr Obama's once-celestial approval ratings are about where +George Bush's were at this stage in his awful presidency. Despite his resounding +electoral victory, his solid majorities in both chambers of Congress and the obvious +goodwill of the bulk of the electorate, Mr Obama has seemed curiously feeble. +Empty posts, weak policies +6 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760667 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760667 Date: 06/30/2015 +There are two main reasons for this. The first is Mr Obama's failure to grapple as fast +and as single-mindedly with the economy as he should have done. His stimulus package, +though huge, was subcontracted to Congress, which did a mediocre job: too much of the +money will arrive too late to be of help in the current crisis. His budget, though in some +ways more honest than his predecessor's, is wildly optimistic. And he has taken too long +to produce his plan for dealing with the trillions of dollars of toxic assets which fester on +banks' balance-sheets. +The failure to staff the Treasury is a shocking illustration of administrative drift. There +are 23 slots at the department that need confirmation by the Senate, and only two have +been filled. This is not the Senate's fault. Mr Obama has made a series of bad picks of +people who have chosen or been forced to withdraw; and it was only this week that he +announced his candidates for two of the department's four most senior posts. Filling +such jobs is always a tortuous business in America, but Mr Obama has made it harder by +insisting on a level of scrutiny far beyond anything previously attempted. Getting the +Treasury team in place ought to have been his first priority. +Second, Mr Obama has mishandled his relations with both sides in Congress. Though he +campaigned as a centrist and promised an era of post-partisan government, that's not +how he has behaved. His stimulus bill attracted only three Republican votes in the +Senate and none in the House. This bodes ill for the passage of more difficult projects, +such as his big plans for carbon-emissions control and health-care reform. Keeping those +promises will soon start to bedevil the administration. The Republicans must take their +share of the blame for the breakdown. But if Mr Obama had done a better job of selling +his package, and had worked harder at making sure that Republicans were included in +drafting it, they would have found it more difficult to oppose his plans. +If Mr Obama cannot work with the Republicans, he needs to be certain that he controls +his own party. Unfortunately, he seems unable to. Put bluntly, the Democrats are +messing him around. They are pushing pro-trade-union legislation (notably a measure to +get rid of secret ballots) even though he doesn't want them to do so; they have been +roughing up the bankers even though it makes his task of fixing the economy much +harder; they have stuffed his stimulus package and his appropriations bill with pork, +even though this damages him and his party in the eyes of the electorate. Worst of all, +he is letting them get away with it. +Lead, dammit +There are some signs that Mr Obama's administration is learning. This week the battered +treasury secretary, Tim Geithner, has at last come up with a detailed plan to rescue the +banks (see article and article). Its success is far from guaranteed, and the mood of +Congress and the public has soured to the point where, should this plan fail, getting +another one off the drawing-board will be exceedingly hard. But the plan at least +demonstrates the administration's acceptance that it must work with the bankers, +instead of riding the wave of popular opinion against them, if it is to repair America's +economy. And it's not just in the domestic arena that Mr Obama has demonstrated his +willingness to learn: on Iraq, he has intelligently recalibrated his views, coming up with a +7 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760667 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760667 Date: 06/30/2015 +plan for withdrawal that seeks to consolidate the gains in Iraq while limiting the costs to +America. +But Mr Obama has a long way to travel if he is to serve his country—and the world—as +he should. Take the G20 meeting in London, to which he will head at the end of next +week. The most important task for this would-be institution is to set itself firmly against +protectionism at a time when most of its members are engaged in a game of creeping +beggar-thy-neighbour. Yet how can Mr Obama lead the fight when he has just pandered +to America's unions by sparking a minor trade war with Mexico? And how can he set a +new course for NATO at its 60th-anniversary summit a few days later if he is appeasing +his party with talk of leaving Afghanistan? +In an accomplished press conference this week, Mr Obama reminded the world what an +impressive politician he can be. He has a capacity to inspire that is unmatched abroad or +at home. He holds a strong hand when it comes to the Democrats, many of whom owe +their seats to his popularity at last year's election.

Clinton presented at the end of the dinner. I thought that a few +insights gleaned from having been in Mexico all this week might be of use to the secretary, although after my breakfast +with Leslie Bassett on Wednesday I am more convinced than ever that the Secretary is receiving high quality +information about Mexico from her embassy here. So there may not be that much for me to add, nevertheless... +I had breakfast Thursday with President Calderon's main foreign policy adviser, Rafael Fernandez de Castro, a very old +and good friend. He made two points I think are worth relaying to you and Anne-Marie: +1)As I mentioned at dinner, Mexico is impatient and President Calderon frustrated (more so now after the trucking +spat). To the extent that secretary Clinton can bring something tangible -- a sort of down payment on the kind of +relationship we would like to build with Mexico -- it would help enormously. In that context, Rafael reminded me that +President Calderon would very much like to be remembered as Mexico's first ""Green President"" (and is in something of a +competition with the Mayor of mexico City on this score). +2) rafael also related a very useful conceptuilization of President Calderon the man that I think will be of use to you: +he is a social conservative, Mexican nationalist (which by definition carries with it some anti-US sentiments) but also +harbors profound liberal values -- he is a true democrat (not all Mexican politicians are) and a strong supporter of free +trade and of a market economy that is largely free but regulated where required (which by definition carries some +sympathy for US values and Democratic party values), it is this dichotomy that defines him as a person and makes him +intelligible as a politician. +I also met with two female Senators who suggested to me the possibility of arranging a meeting between Sec. Clinton +and Mexico's female governors (2) and senators (about 20). In an obviously male-dominated society, they have been +working hard to promotewomen's issues and they think that the symbolism of a meeting with the secretary would help +their cause enormously. I agreed to pass the suggestion along in part becasue I am impressed by how these women -- +from political parties that otherwise find it very hard to collaborate -- are cooperating across party lines to promote +women's issues, this kind of cross-party cooperation is much less common than it ought to be in Mexico's still formative +democracy. And it is obviously in the US interest to encourage this kind of behavior and thereby help solidify democratic +practices in Mexico. I know it is very late in your trip-planning to make this suggestion, but if there is not time for such +a meeting this trip, maybe for the next one. +I hope these musings were of some use. +Warm regards, +Pamela +Pamela K.

These would supplement the material in her book. We are aware that these will be tough +meetings, but we also view them as a good opportunity to also cover a lot of ground.

I care deeply about this, I got into politics because I was frustrated by how little I could help +living in a refugee camp on the Ethiopian-Somali border. The substantive policies obviously matter most, we got some +right and some wrong in Clinton years, but the results of our bipartisan research may be useful. Here's my super-concise +private summary: +1. The goal is help people be able to help themselves. The size of the program is important to advocates, but Americans +want to know the ultimate goal is to be helping people be able to care for themselves (like grow enough food for Africa). +2.We all agree that kids should be a key focus and the best reason for any program is the moral importance. It's fine to +acknowledge we do these programs for a variety of pragmatic reasons, but the most powerful reason is moral. It is the +right thing to do. +3.We mostly all agree it is ok to spend money on these programs, but we should always note how we are fighting for +reform too.

For others, a place of historic and cultural ties. For all of us, a test of collective +commitment and resolve. +Some may ask why a small nation in the middle of the Caribbean Sea should command our attention today. Why +countries in the Western Hemisphere, Europe, the Middle East and Asia should offer assistance to Haiti in the midst of a +global economic downturn that has shaken us all. +We're gathered at this conference because what happens in Haiti will resound far beyond the Caribbean and beyond the +Americas. The success or failure of this one small nation has economic, social and political implications, not just for its 9 +million citizens, but for a region whose future will be shaped by the strength of our commitment to achieve economic +recovery, political progress and wider opportunity for people from Portland to Porto Alegre to Port-au-Prince. +The United States is here, first and foremost, because it is the right thing to do for our neighbor and friend. Our ties to +Haiti reach back to the early years of both our nations and have endured for generations-through our struggles for +independence; through the defeat of slavery in Haiti, which inspired slaves and abolitionists in the U.S. to press on with +their fight for freedom; and more recently, through the hundreds of thousands of Haitians who emigrated to the United +States and strengthened it through their contributions in politics, business, science, sports and culture-the benefits of +which I experienced firsthand as a senator representing New York. +We are also here because we are committed to creating a hemisphere in which every nation-no matter their present +level of wealth or current political circumstances-is moving in the same direction, toward greater peace, prosperity, +freedom and opportunity. +With Haiti, we have the chance through global cooperation and collaboration to stand in solidarity with a people who +are seeking to march forward. A nation where small investments and assistance from other countries are beginning to +reap dividends in economic growth, wider access to health care, stronger governmental institutions, greater safety and +security-and the higher quality of life that results when the material conditions of people's lives improve. +Today, Haiti is the poorest nation in the hemisphere, with one of the region's biggest gaps between the haves and have- +nots. But in 2006, Haiti had its highest economic growth since the 1990s. It is on track to reach the completion point for +the IMF's Heavily Indebted Poor Countries Initiative in the next few months, which means significant debt relief is on the +way, which will free up approximately $4 million a month-money that Haiti can invest directly in improving the lives of +its people and building a future of self-sufficiency and confidence. +Haiti has the region's highest rate of HIV/AIDS, the highest rate of maternal mortality, and the highest rate of child +mortality. But the numbers of HIV infections and child and maternal deaths are all coming down. +Not long ago, Haiti endured three decades of a brutal dictatorship. But the national and presidential elections in 2006 +jump-started Haiti's democracy, and President Preval and Prime Minister Pierre Louis are seeking to maintain a strong +commitment to democratic governance, which will take another step forward on Sunday with elections for the Senate. +Like many nations, including the United States, Haiti struggles against crime, particularly the global scourge of drug +trafficking. But reforms to improve policing, strengthen the justice system and fight corruption are now underway, and +a peacekeeping force led by Brazil has helped bring stability to many Haitian communities. +Haiti made these strides with help from its own citizens and many of the nations and institutions represented here +today. And this progress did not come only through government-to-government partnerships, but also through links +among businesses, universities, NG0s, religious and cultural groups, and individuals-the full range of resources and +relationships, which is the heart of smart power. +That trajectory of progress has been undermined by the combined winds of hurricanes and a global economic recession. +Haiti is in danger of stalling. +This conference gives us an opportunity to reignite its path to progress and work as a team-with Haiti at the helm-to +advance a comprehensive, long-term strategy for Haiti's growth, by coordinating hemispheric and international efforts, +targeting clear goals, and deploying our diverse skills and resources efficiently and effectively. +President Preval and Prime Minister Pierre Louis have identified what help Haiti needs to get back on track. With these +priorities as our guide and Haiti as our partner, we can make high-impact investments that will help lay the foundation +for stronger democratic institutions, a vibrant civil society, and an open market economy that creates more stability, +attracts international investment, and offers more jobs and wider economic opportunities for Haiti and our region as a +whole. +Now is the time to step up our investment in Haiti-not because the situation is so dire, but because the consequences of +inaction could lead to significantly larger costs in both human and financial terms down the road. +With $100, we can pay for a year of schooling for one Haitian child or immunize five. That's a tiny fraction of the cost of +solving these problems if they escalate over time. +The United States will target our support toward three areas that the Haitian government has requested, which are +aimed at promoting conditions that are essential for national and regional progress. +First, the Haitian people need to be secure. They must be able to travel safely to work and school and participate in the +civic lives of their communities without fear of violence. +Second, the country needs stronger infrastructure, particularly roads, which are the circulatory system of any robust +economy. Meanwhile, the people of Haiti are ready to work, but jobs are in short supply. We can accomplish two things +at once by putting people to work building roads and other infrastructure throughout Haiti. +And third, last year's hurricanes blew a hole in the government's budget. +Now Haiti is facing a huge deficit, which will make it harder to provide services in the short-term or fund major projects +in the long-term. Their debt obligations further constrain their ability to lay the groundwork for the future. +On each of these issues-security, jobs and infrastructure, and debt relief-the United States is lending its assistance and +seeking to partner with other nations to maximize our collective impact. +First, security. Effective international partnerships have already helped stem violence and improve security in Haiti. Cite +Soleil, for example, was a no-man's-land for years, but today, violence has subsided and a new sense of freedom is felt in +the streets. +The Haitian National Police have been supported in their work by the UN peacekeeping operation in Haiti, which is the +first in the hemisphere in which Latin American and Caribbean nations have participated. Brazil has led the mission with +determination and skill. This level of engagement and collaboration is a major step forward for our region. +But criminal networks operating in Haiti have not been eliminated. Haiti continues to fight drug traffickers who have +made this country a distribution point for illegal drugs headed to the United States, Canada and Europe. +Drug trafficking is a problem that involves many nations, all of which have a role to play in ending this deadly trade. That +includes the United States. We will give $2 million to fight drug trafficking in Haiti through the Merida Initiative, a plan +conceived by Mexico, Central America and the United States. This money will fund a secure communications network +for the Haitian police; provide a maritime base, vehicles and operational support for police drug units; provide training +to promote cross-border cooperation between Haiti and the Dominican Republic; and sharpen the investigation and +prosecution of drug crimes. +Once security is established, opportunity can take root. Nations from Canada to Spain to Japan offered generous +assistance to help repair the damage from last year's storms. Now it is time to take the next step-to move beyond +peacekeeping and disaster relief to long-term reconstruction and development. +Haiti has the highest unemployment rate in the hemisphere; 70 percent of its people don't have jobs. It also has one of +the region's highest population growth rates. Together, these trends have created what one development expert has +called a ""youth tsunami""-nearly 1 million youths are expected to come into the job market in the next five years. +To spur the creation of jobs, the United States passed the HOPE Act in 2006, to give garments made in Haiti tariff-free +access to the U.S. market. Last October, we extended this trade preference for another decade. Apparel is one of the +largest sectors in Haiti's economy. We see great potential for job creation in this field, and we are gratified by Brazil's +interest in supporting the Haitian apparel industry as well. +But to build a diversified economy, Haiti needs more than trade deals. It also needs the infrastructure to support the +flow of goods and services. The roads in Haiti are beyond inadequate; many communities are isolated by the lack of a +passable road, which prevents people from holding jobs, children from going to school, and farmers from bringing their +crops to market. +Better roads could facilitate greater trade and bring more Haitians into the global economy. +Haiti also needs better roads in tourist areas, to promote that sector of the economy. Other urgent infrastructure needs +include digging water catchments to prevent floods, completing a garment workers' training center, and creating canals +to help irrigation. +As part of the $287 million in non-emergency assistance we will provide to Haiti this year, we have authorized $20 +million in aid to generate jobs, to help people put their skills to work building their country's future. We look forward to +working with Haiti to distribute that money quickly and effectively, to trigger a virtuous circle for long-term economic +growth. +All the fiscal responsibility in the world can't prevent a natural disaster. +The hurricanes didn't just wash away crops and houses; they also washed away +months of government planning for the future. Haiti is facing an +approximately $50 million budget deficit, which could undermine Haiti's long-term ambitions as well as services that +people depend on to survive. +The United States will provide $20 million to pay Haiti's upcoming debt service obligations, to free Haiti to use its +resources to fill that budget gap. +[There is a fourth urgent need that the United States is committed to helping Haiti resolve. The combined effect of +rising food prices globally and the destruction of crops by the hurricanes have exposed millions of Haitians to +malnutrition and its destructive effects on health and productivity. Malnourished people are often too weak to work; +chronically hungry children struggle to learn in school. Food insecurity is not only a source of suffering, but a direct +threat to economic growth and global stability. The United States will provide a $15-million in-kind contribution of food +to help Haiti as it continues to rebuild. ] +These are some of the ways in which the United States is ready to partner with Haiti and other nations. But there are +additional pieces of the larger mission that need support-from helping Haiti adapt to climate change so future +hurricanes won't claim thousands of lives; to strengthening health systems; promoting sustainable agriculture; and +developing civil society. +This work is not only a matter for governments, but also a mission for our people. Here in the U.S., I have heard from +many individuals and groups who care about Haiti and want to help it develop but don't know how to invest their time +and money in a way that will make a real impact. We should think creatively about helping people outside government +get involved in a meaningful way with Haiti's future. Our people are our most valuable resource, and their potential to +help in places like Haiti has not yet been tapped. +We know from empirical data that small investments go a long way. This is something I've seen for myself in my own +visits to Haiti. I traveled there with my husband shortly after our wedding, and again years later as First Lady. I met a +doctor who had emigrated to the United States and became a U.S. Air Force Colonel, but returned to his home town of +Pignon to run a center for health, women's literacy and microcredit. He and his staff had few resources, but they +offered a comprehensive range of services to thousands of clients. +I visited a family-planning clinic where young people were trained to educate their peers about how to protect their +health and prevent teen pregnancy. +And I met with women from a group called Women in Democracy. These women had attended a global conference on +women's leadership in Montevideo, Uruguay, and when they returned home, they created this organization to support +Haitian women running for office. +Eleven years later, their organization is larger and stronger than ever, and so is their mission. In addition to supporting +women candidates, they also hold trade fairs for women entrepreneurs, run civic education programs to teach women +their rights, support women journalists, and build connections between women throughout the Caribbean. +These Haitian women remind us that we will never achieve real progress if we leave millions of people behind. And they +demonstrate a powerful commitment on the part of the Haitian people to participate in and lead their nation's recovery. +Our role is to support their work however we can, and to demonstrate through our actions our belief that their future is +as important as our own. +What happens next in Haiti will send a message to the world about the power of collaboration on behalf of every poor +nation that has worked hard to earn a foothold in the global economy but has tumbled in recent months. +On behalf of every man and woman in the hemisphere, from the northern expanses of Canada to the southern tip of +Argentina, who is working harder than ever with fewer resources and for smaller rewards. and the children whose +futures have been jeopardized by forces far beyond their control. let us prove our commitment to an economic recovery +that reaches not only the citizens of our individual nations but all people everywhere.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760795 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Cheryl Mills +Sent: Saturday, April 11, 2009 1:36 PM +To: +Subject: Haiti Draft -- Attached and Below in Text +Attachments: Haiti donors 041109 12p.doc +April 11, 2009 12pm +Word count: 2,392 (19 min) +Rooney (x7-7203, 202-431-6498) +SECRETARY OF STATE HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON REMARKS TO THE HAITI DONORS CONFERENCE Washington, D.C. +Tuesday, April 14, 2009 +For some of us, Haiti is a neighbor. For others, a place of historic and cultural ties. For all of us, a test of collective +commitment and resolve. +Some may ask why a small nation in the middle of the Caribbean Sea should command our attention today. Why +countries in the Western Hemisphere, Europe, the Middle East and Asia should offer assistance to Haiti in the midst of a +global economic downturn that has shaken us all. +We're gathered at this conference because what happens in Haiti will resound far beyond the Caribbean and beyond the +Americas. The success or failure of this one small nation has economic, social and political implications, not just for its 9 +million citizens, but for a region whose future will be shaped by the strength of our commitment to achieve economic +recovery, political progress and wider opportunity for people from Portland to Porto Alegre to Port-au-Prince. +The United States is here, first and foremost, because it is the right thing to do for our neighbor and friend. Our ties to +Haiti reach back to the early years of both our nations and have endured for generations-through our struggles for +independence; through the defeat of slavery in Haiti, which inspired slaves and abolitionists in the U.S. to press on with +their fight for freedom; and more recently, through the hundreds of thousands of Haitians who emigrated to the United +States and strengthened it through their contributions in politics, business, science, sports and culture-the benefits of +which I experienced firsthand as a senator representing New York. +We are also here because we are committed to creating a hemisphere in which every nation-no matter their present +level of wealth or current political circumstances-is moving in the same direction, toward greater peace, prosperity, +freedom and opportunity. +With Haiti, we have the chance through global cooperation and collaboration to stand in solidarity with a people who +are seeking to march forward. A nation where small investments and assistance from other countries are beginning to +reap dividends in economic growth, wider access to health care, stronger governmental institutions, greater safety and +security-and the higher quality of life that results when the material conditions of people's lives improve. +Today, Haiti is the poorest nation in the hemisphere, with one of the region's biggest gaps between the haves and have- +nots. But in 2006, Haiti had its highest economic growth since the 1990s. It is on track to reach the completion point for +the IMF's Heavily Indebted Poor Countries Initiative in the next few months, which means significant debt relief is on the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760795 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760795 Date: 06/30/2015 +way, which will free up approximately $4 million a month-money that Haiti can invest directly in improving the lives of +its people and building a future of self-sufficiency and confidence. +Haiti has the region's highest rate of HIV/AIDS, the highest rate of maternal mortality, and the highest rate of child +mortality. But the numbers of HIV infections and child and maternal deaths are all coming down. +Not long ago, Haiti endured three decades of a brutal dictatorship. But the national and presidential elections in 2006 +jump-started Haiti's democracy, and President Preval and Prime Minister Pierre Louis are seeking to maintain a strong +commitment to democratic governance, which will take another step forward on Sunday with elections for the Senate. +Like many nations, including the United States, Haiti struggles against crime, particularly the global scourge of drug +trafficking. But reforms to improve policing, strengthen the justice system and fight corruption are now underway, and +a peacekeeping force led by Brazil has helped bring stability to many Haitian communities. +Haiti made these strides with help from its own citizens and many of the nations and institutions represented here +today. And this progress did not come only through government-to-government partnerships, but also through links +among businesses, universities, NG0s, religious and cultural groups, and individuals-the full range of resources and +relationships, which is the heart of smart power. +That trajectory of progress has been undermined by the combined winds of hurricanes and a global economic recession. +Haiti is in danger of stalling. +This conference gives us an opportunity to reignite its path to progress and work as a team-with Haiti at the helm-to +advance a comprehensive, long-term strategy for Haiti's growth, by coordinating hemispheric and international efforts, +targeting clear goals, and deploying our diverse skills and resources efficiently and effectively. +President Preval and Prime Minister Pierre Louis have identified what help Haiti needs to get back on track. With these +priorities as our guide and Haiti as our partner, we can make high-impact investments that will help lay the foundation +for stronger democratic institutions, a vibrant civil society, and an open market economy that creates more stability, +attracts international investment, and offers more jobs and wider economic opportunities for Haiti and our region as a +whole. +Now is the time to step up our investment in Haiti-not because the situation is so dire, but because the consequences of +inaction could lead to significantly larger costs in both human and financial terms down the road. +With $100, we can pay for a year of schooling for one Haitian child or immunize five. That's a tiny fraction of the cost of +solving these problems if they escalate over time. +The United States will target our support toward three areas that the Haitian government has requested, which are +aimed at promoting conditions that are essential for national and regional progress. +First, the Haitian people need to be secure. They must be able to travel safely to work and school and participate in the +civic lives of their communities without fear of violence. +Second, the country needs stronger infrastructure, particularly roads, which are the circulatory system of any robust +economy. Meanwhile, the people of Haiti are ready to work, but jobs are in short supply. We can accomplish two things +at once by putting people to work building roads and other infrastructure throughout Haiti. +And third, last year's hurricanes blew a hole in the government's budget. +Now Haiti is facing a huge deficit, which will make it harder to provide services in the short-term or fund major projects +in the long-term. Their debt obligations further constrain their ability to lay the groundwork for the future. +On each of these issues-security, jobs and infrastructure, and debt relief-the United States is lending its assistance and +seeking to partner with other nations to maximize our collective impact. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760795 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05760795 Date: 06/30/2015 +First, security. Effective international partnerships have already helped stem violence and improve security in Haiti. Cite +Soleil, for example, was a no-man's-land for years, but today, violence has subsided and a new sense of freedom is felt in +the streets. +The Haitian National Police have been supported in their work by the UN peacekeeping operation in Haiti, which is the +first in the hemisphere in which Latin American and Caribbean nations have participated. Brazil has led the mission with +determination and skill. This level of engagement and collaboration is a major step forward for our region. +But criminal networks operating in Haiti have not been eliminated.

The essential +argument is that a top-down, ""big-plan"" approach to foreign assistance — the Jeff Sachs' approach - has not +worked in the past and will not work in the future. +Both Easterly and Moyo argue for a bottom-up approach that supports overall economic growth. They +emphasize expanding access to capital markets and low-cost financing, promoting better governance and +accountability, policy reform to enhance foreign investment, and support for market-driven social +entrepreneurs. +I will give Nora a couple of articles for you to take home and look at. One of them, by Paul Collier, offers a +strong alternative to the USAID approach of funding small holder farmers.

Johnson has made some effort to include Hispanics in his +Administration. Hispanics have held top level positions in the administrations of Lyndon B. Johnson, Richard +M. Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush. +Ronald Reagan was the first President to appoint Hispanics to cabinet-level positions. He appointed two and +every President since Reagan has had at least one Hispanic serving in a cabinet-level position in their +administration whether they served two, four, or eight years as President. Bill Clinton was the first to have +three Hispanics in cabinet-level positions at the same time when he exercised his prerogative and elevated the +office of the Administrator of SBA to cabinet level. George W. Bush chose not to continue the designation but +still had two Hispanics in his cabinet throughout his two terms. +All Presidents want to fill positions in their administration with the best qualified persons, and that is the way it +should be. No one should expect to be appointed to any position by the President because of their race, gender +or national origin, even though as presidential candidates they promise to do so. More importantly, given +massive demographic change that the country is experiencing, it is no longer possible to craft or implement +effective policies and programs without the experience and expertise provided by a diverse, truly representative +government. +Still, Presidents try to accomplish something in the course of appointing the best qualified persons to their +administration. Bill Clinton wanted a government that looked like America and in the process named two +Hispanics to head two major departments in his cabinet, elevated a third to cabinet level, brought an +unprecedented number of Hispanics into his administration, and signed Executive Order 13171, which called +for government-wide strategies to address the persistent under-representation of Latinos within the federal +1 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 +workforce. He was also very much aware of the fact that Hispanics helped him carry 14 of 16 major electoral +vote states in which over 90% of the Hispanic vote was concentrated. +George W. Bush brought a natural sensitivity and affinity to his administration, having served as Governor of +Texas, a state with the second largest Hispanic population in the nation. He too appointed two Hispanics to his +cabinet, chose to extend Executive Order 13171, and, like Clinton, brought a reasonably high number of +Hispanics into his administration. Similarly, George Bush was very much aware of the fact that Hispanics +helped him carry six major electoral vote states in which 90% of the Hispanic vote was concentrated. +Barack Obama assumed the Presidency promising change, which lends itself more to qualitative measurement +than quantitative. Still, during his first 100 days he nominated three Hispanics to major cabinet-level +positions. One nominee withdrew and the other two were subsequently confirmed by the Senate. It remains to +be seen how many Hispanics are ultimately named to high positions in his administration, and whether he will +choose to extend Executive Order 13171. And, like his last two predecessors, he too is very much aware of the +fact that Hispanics helped him carry 14 of 16 major electoral vote states in which 90% of the Hispanic vote is +concentrated, in addition to North Carolina, Virginia, and Indiana. +On comparing the Clinton, Bush, and Obama Administrations +In order to make a fair comparison as to how Hispanics have fared during the first 100 days of the Clinton, +Bush, and Obama administrations, one should first recognize that the Hispanic community has changed +considerably since 1992. In 1992 the estimated Hispanic population was 22.4 million, 5.1 million were +registered to vote, approximately 4.2 million voted, and 61% voted for Clinton. In 2000 the estimated Hispanic +population was 33.3 million, 7.5 million were registered to vote, approximately 5.9 million voted, and 35% +voted for Bush. In 2008 the estimated Hispanic population was 44 million, 14 million were registered to vote, +approximately 10 million voted, and 67% voted for Obama. So not only has the Hispanic population grown +exponentially since 1992, the Hispanic electorate has grown dramatically, and in 2008 helped carry traditional +states and more importantly proved decisive in carrying non-traditional states. +So from Clinton to Obama the Hispanic population doubled, voter registration nearly tripled, and voter turnout +more than doubled. Obama received more Hispanic votes than the combined total number of votes cast in 1992 +and 2000. He received 4.1 million more Hispanics votes than Clinton in 1992 and 4.6 million more Hispanic +votes than Bush in 2000. The November 2008 election created a new political reality — a new political reality +that has emboldened the Latino community and Latino leaders to demand the change President Obama +promised and to expect more than we got from both Clinton and Bush. Clinton and Bush did not give Hispanics +something to strive for. They gave us something to surpass. Anything less is not change, but more of the same +or worse. +President Obama's first 100 days +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. Fg:2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 +President Obama is to be commended on the appointments of Hispanics he has made to date and for the access +to the process that NHLA has had, but NHLA is very disappointed in the overall results. For the record, the +Transition Team and NHLA leaders worked very closely from the beginning to find and encourage well +qualified Hispanics to apply. Once the President was sworn into office NHLA continued working with the +White House Office of Presidential Personnel to ensure that more Hispanics would be nominated and appointed +and that more prospective candidates would continue to apply. NHLA commends the President for the access +we have had and the transparency with which the process has been conducted, but the results speak for +themselves. These efforts fell well short of the target. Latinos remain one of the most under-represented groups +in government and the most under-represented at the Senior Executive Service level. +We are also mindful of the fact that senior White House appointees and the Office of Presidential Personnel +have been similarly accessible to other Hispanic groups on matters pertaining to personnel as well as policies, +and the President is to be commended for that as well. But regardless of the group with which the +Administration has worked, the results have fallen below target and Latinos remain seriously under- +represented. +As of April 27, has announced 58 Hispanics who have been nominated or appointed to positions in the Obama +administration, including 19 that require Senate confirmation. +The Cabinet. NHLA commends the President for nominating two highly qualified Hispanics to major cabinet +level positions — Hilda Solis at Labor and Ken Salazar at Interior. Both departments are extremely important, +given the nature, scope, and purview of their responsibilities. +And while NHLA also commends the President for nominating a third Hispanic, Governor Bill Richardson, to a +major cabinet level position (Commerce), NHLA is extremely disappointed in that another Hispanic was not +nominated from the impressive list of well qualified and experienced Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, and Cubans +that NHLA provided when Governor Richardson withdrew, considering that no Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, +Cubans, or Central and South Americans had been nominated for anything at the time. +The White House. NHLA commends the President for appointing four highly qualified Hispanics to senior +staff level positions in the White House — Cecilia Munoz, Louis Caldera, Adolfo Carrion, Jr., and Moises Vela, +Jr. +But NHLA is extremely disappointed in that only four Hispanics are among the 49 Presidential appointees +selected to date to fill senior staff positions in the White House and that no Cubans or Dominicans have been +included. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 +And while NHLA commends the President for appointing five highly qualified Hispanics to the position of +Special Assistant to the President including Alejandro Perez at Legislative Affairs, Michael Camunez at +Presidential Personnel, and Roberto Rodriguez, Carlos Monje, and Tino Cuellar at the Domestic Policy Council, +NHLA is extremely disappointed in that not one Hispanic has been appointed Assistant to the President or +senior advisor, the President's inner circle. NHLA is also disappointed in that not one of the five Special +Assistants is Puerto Rican, Cuban, or Dominican. +The Sub-Cabinet.

There are 75 positions yet to be filled, which provide an +excellent opportunity for qualified Hispanics to be appointed and for the Obama Administration to improve on +its record. +Conclusion. While NHLA commends the President for his commitment to change, there is none to be seen with +regard to personnel. Hispanics are under-represented at the sub-cabinet and senior staff levels, and on the +White House staff Of the countless number of positions filled to date by the Administration, including senior +advisors, Cabinet, sub-cabinet, White House staff, and senior staff in major departments, only 58 have been +filled by Hispanics. This is not change. This is more of the same, below target. More announcements of +Latinos being nominated for Senate confirmation required positions are expected in the coming days, weeks and +months, which will undoubtedly improve what has been accomplished during the President's first 100 days. +NHLA would respectfully suggest to the President that he impress upon his Cabinet Secretaries, senior White +House staff and the Office of White House Personnel, and the Office of Personnel Management that they need +to be more attentive to the serious under-representation of Hispanics in the Obama Administration. NHLA +respectfully urges the President to order an agency-by-agency review of the hiring process being utilized and +request a ""Plan for Change and Improvement"" from each department as it pertains to appointing more Latinos +for high level positions, and urge him to call for a comprehensive report on Hispanic employment in 90 days. +The 16 departments surveyed in this report have a combined total of 205 vacancies which would be the logical +place to start implementing a ""Plan for Change and Improvement"" and increasing the number of high-ranking +Hispanics in the Obama Administration including Senior Executive Service level positions. +The all but total lack of Hispanic appointments to councils in the Executive Office of the President, as well as to +Regulatory Agencies and Independent Agencies, is a great source of disappointment to NHLA and leaves very +much room for improvement. NHLA respectfully urges the President to order a thorough review of all +applications submitted to identify qualified Hispanic candidates for possible appointment to boards, +commissions, and agencies, and to request more applications if necessary. +NHLA remains committed to working with the President, the Office of Presidential Personnel, and all +departments to assist in identifying qualified Hispanics to serve in the Obama Administration, but realizes that +the direction and enforcement must come from the President. +Finally, we commend the President for the aggressive steps he has taken to address tough issues of public policy +that, while affecting all Americans, have disproportionately had an adverse affect on the Latino community, i.e., +mortgage foreclosures, unemployment, education, health (SCHIP), small businesses and immigration +reform. NHLA also looks forward to working with the President and his Administration on specific proposals +that affect all Americans and the Hispanic community particularly, pertaining to education, civil rights, +immigration, economic empowerment, health, and governmental accountability. +24 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 +NHLA reaffirms its unqualified commitment to continue working with the President and those in his +Administration to help get America back on the right track and moving again. +For further information: +Dr. Juan Andrade via email at docandrade@ushli.organd by phone at (312) 371-5826. +National Institute for Latino Policy (NiLP) +101 Avenue of the Americas I New York, NY 10013 +800-590-2516 Fax: 917-677-8593 +wwvviatinopolicy.orglinfo@iatinopolicy.org +To make a tax-tleductiblle domition to N1LP, click here. +To get on our mailing list to receive the beano Policy eNewsktter, click here +Messages in this topic (1) Reply (via web post) I Start a new topic +Messages I Files I Photos I Links I Database I Polls I Calendar +PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD! +MARKETPLACE +I Got Fired But now make S350/day online!. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761078 Date: 06/30/2015 +I'm happy I lost my Job.

After reviewing a +representative sample of the Chinese reports, I'll move to the logic behind their approach, +or where it comes from, and finally, what China's aims are, before offering a preliminary +assessment of their success. To give you a preview, my answer is, clearly, yes, the +Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leadership is trying to influence or shape American +perceptions of, and policies toward, China. Mainly, up to now, these efforts have been in +the direction of reassurance, to allay US concerns about China's economic rise, military +build-up, and increasing political and diplomatic influence. +Let me begin by referring to a Chinese report addressing the need for, and character of, +foreign-directed strategic information capabilities. This article, a kind of roadmap for +foreign-directed information campaigns, appeared in a February 2009 Reference News +(Cankao Xiaoxi) outlet, and it was translated by the American Open Source Center, along +with the other articles that I am going to cite today. Reference News publications come +out of a special branch of the official Chinese news agency Xinhua that is charged with +preparing information and analysis for senior cadres. In theory, the circulation of these +Reference News reports is limited to high-ranking Party members. To be sure, I am not +about to quote a policy document but rather an analytical piece. It seems to be +representative of a certain cast of mind, however, as we will see. The article from +February refers to ""national public relations weapons,"" which it defines: ""By national +public relations, we mean dialogues between nations or between a country and relevant +stake holders against the backdrop of competition over power and interest."" +The need to ""set the agenda for foreign media"" is explicitly stressed. Under a subhead of +the article called ""Media Diplomacy: Breaking the Siege of Public Opinion in the West,"" +the author writes: +It is obvious that the West still has the upper hand while the East remains weak... +Whenever there is an agenda dispute, international public opinion will form a force +that involves the West's besieging the East. +And the article proceeds to explain: +Influencing and setting the foreign media agenda fully embodies a rule of the game +in modern society — that is, whoever can influence the media agenda can influence +the public agenda... The foreign media are not a taxi on the road that can be flagged +when one needs it and shoved away when one does not need it. +In other words, the foreign press has to be cultivated, so that when a crisis strikes, certain +outlets can be counted upon to report favorably on China. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761110 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761110 Date: 06/30/2015 +How can this be achieved? ""Foreign media outlets should be given special treatment so +that they will not be forced to unite and form a confrontational alliance."" In other words, +divide them, or keep them divided. The article elaborates on this question, emphasizing +the need to ""provide them with specialized information..."" That is, grant privileges to +encourage positive coverage. +Under the same heading of ""Breaking the Siege of Public Opinion in the West,"" the +article also offers general precepts such as, +When a negative event occurs, [the authorities] should not order the media to shut up. +Public opinion is like a big container. The more information you inject.., the less +space there is for other people's views and ability to return fire. +In other words, flood the zone. +More specifically, under the heading of ""Lobbying,"" the author writes: +We need to influence the influential. In every country, there are famous +commentators and writers, and they are the media and public focus. With the +support of these foreign 'eloquent speakers' and writers, the national public relations +drive can yield twice the results with half the effort. In addition, it is necessary to +fully mobilize overseas elites and [overseas] Chinese who are 'familiar with +China.' ... [Because they] understand the cultural environment abroad, they can be +good assistants in China's public relations. +Where does all this come from? Whence this talk of a ""siege of public opinion,"" ""national +public relations weapons,"" and the like? It flows from a tradition that stresses the role of +information in political and geopolitical interactions — that is, in both domestic and +foreign strategy. I'd go so far as to say that the Chinese tradition puts managing +perceptions at the heart of strategy. This is evident from Sun Zi's injunction to know the +enemy and oneself to the CCP's extensive domestic propaganda and information +management efforts, which have been explored by scholars such as Anne-Marie Brady, +David Shambaugh, Daniel Lynch and Ashley Esarey, among others. Perhaps most +relevant for our purposes, the emphasis on information in China's strategic culture is +evident in Deng Xiaoping's famous injunction that China should ""bide its time and hide +its capabilities,"" which can only be understood as a call to shape the data that reaches +foreigners, in this case to conceal certain data. +In this connection, consider the formulation designed to influence how foreigners +understand China's increased power on the world stage, ""peaceful rise."" The line, +promulgated by Zheng Bijian in 2002, was later changed to ""peaceful development,"" lest +the word ""rise"" provoke anxiety and undermine the intended effect of reassuring +foreigners about China's trajectory. But before this change took hold, Zheng slipped up +in a September 2004 Shanghai TV appearance, as quoted in a recent China Quarterly +article by Daniel Lynch: ""Working in this way [touting the ""peaceful rise] has its +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761110 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761110 Date: 06/30/2015 +advantages — in obtaining greater understanding, sympathy and support, in winning +discourse power on the question of China's development path, in winning discourse +power in the international sphere... It is all extremely advantageous, and there is +absolutely no downside."" This is a pretty stunning shift from insisting that ""peaceful +rise"" is an earnest description of China's present and future to describing the label as +instrumental, a tool for ""winning discourse power."" +Now Zheng is affiliated with the Central Party School of the Chinese Communist Party, +but he has been a senior member of the Party's propaganda apparatus, an extensive +network of offices that exists behind the official bureaucracy, since the 1960s. Zheng is +never identified this way in Chinese Western-language news outlets. Further, the Party +School is often referred to as a Chinese think tank. Is this an institution just like our +Brookings or AEI? No. In another recent article called ""It Is Difficult for Chinese Think +Tanks to Learn from the American Model,"" the author explicitly notes the differences: +""US private think tanks are in ... a thriving state. This is unique in the entire world, ... a +byproduct of ... the US dual-party election system... fundamentally different from the +domestic conditions of China."" Therefore, ""one is afraid that what China think tanks can +learn from US think tanks is more about micro-level management and operational +models."" In other words, because most Chinese think tanks are sponsored by the Party, +while American think tanks are private, all Chinese think tanks can learn from their US +counterparts is internal organizational details. +A different recent piece, ""China Must Have Strong Nongovernmental Diplomatic +Power,' published in a Chinese People 's Daily [Renmin Ribao] outlet that tracks foreign +opinion on China for senior cadres, reviews the fundamental differences between the +United States and China in the think tank realm, and assesses that China is at a +disadvantage: +The diversified nongovernmental forces have provided US diplomacy with multiple +abilities to set up various agendas. In the meantime, China can do nothing but rely on +its government's single-track diplomacy. This has placed China in a passive position, +in which it is hard to cope with the situation, as if it is shooting mosquitoes with a +cannon. +The article goes on to say that to avoid embarrassments like the crackdown on free Tibet +protestors in the run-up to the Olympics, China must unleash overseas Chinese to counter +Western public expressions of sympathy for Tibet. +What is this talk of ""discourse power in the international sphere"" and ""shooting +mosquitoes"" about? Well, with regard to the United States and the lines about ""biding +time, and hiding capabilities"" and ""peaceful rise,"" we can be sure that there is an effort to +keep America friendly and complacent. But there is also increasing realism in the +Chinese reports about the continuing feasibility of this approach as China passes through +different stages of modernization and development and starts to assume roles associated +with great powers. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761110 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761110 Date: 06/30/2015 +From the ""national public relations"" document that I quoted at the outset, here is a +description of a natural evolution for China's foreign-directed information campaigns: +China's public relations drive is not a.. .competition that involves waging a quick +battle, but what Chairman Mao.. .described as a 'long-running battle.' According to +Chairman Mao, a long-running battle involved three stages: defense, confrontation, +and counterattack. From the strategic level of national public relations, the defense +stage comprises passive defense and active defense. We divide the confrontation +period into two parts: confrontation resulting from both sides being well matched in +strength, and [then] dialogue brought about by a balance of power. The counterattack +stage involves attacking and conquering. +Within the PRC today, there seems to be significant discussion of whether China can +continue to bide its time or whether China will be compelled to shift its foreign-directed +information efforts. The roadmap article concludes, ""While we should not demonstrate +toughness characteristic of the confrontation stage and the counterattack stage, we cannot +continue making the kind of unprincipled compromises or maintaining the unrestrained +modesty that marks the passive defense stage."" +In addition to shifting the message directed at the United States, China may accelerate its +wooing of other countries. Perhaps inspired by the idea of ""soft power,"" the Chinese +seem to believe that a competition exists in the realm of ""international public opinion."" +A January 2008 analysis by the scholar Yan Xuetong, published in a journal of the +Chinese Institute of Contemporary International Relations (CICIR), a ""think tank"" with +ties to the Ministry of State Security, which oversees Chinese counterintelligence, argues +that ""if a country has relatively many strategically friendly countries, it is likely to win +support from other countries."" According to Yan, the United States has an advantage in +allies, or ""international mobilization ability,"" but this can be eroded in three to five years +if China properly ""positions"" itself or manipulates impressions of China's ""identity"": +We may think of repositioning China's international identity and expanding the +homogeneity between China and other countries in identity. Economically, China +may position itself as a burgeoning modern country, being between a developed and +underdeveloped country. Politically, China may position itself as a democratizing +country, ... between a democratic country and ... [an autocracy]. Culturally, China +may position itself as a Confucian country, between a religious and a nonreligious +country... +I have been talking about Chinese intentions up to now. To conclude, I would like to turn +to an assessment of effects. But effects are difficult to measure, in part because any +judgment requires addressing the counterfactual question, Would we have acted as we +have in the absence of Chinese foreign-directed information campaigns? As a +preliminary answer, let me adduce the article ""Have China Scholars All Been Bought,"" +by the Hong Kong-based professor Carsten Holz. Holz begins, ""Academics who study +China, which includes the author, habitually please the Chinese Communist Party, +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761110 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761110 Date: 06/30/2015 +sometimes consciously, and often unconsciously."" Consider, too, the words of one of the +most senior American scholars of China, Orville Schell: +I try to say, 'Okay, here is what I think, what I understand, what I think I see, have +learned and read.' Then, I try and think through what the Chinese government's +reaction will be... And then I try to be as truthful as I can in a way that is respectful +and unprovocative but that is not pandering. China has a tremendously highly +evolved capacity to create panderers both among its own people and foreigners who +become involved with them. +Where is all of this going if China succeeds in reassuring the United States while +increasing its ""international mobilization ability""? That's a subject for a different hearing, +I think. Thank you again, and I look forward to your questions. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761110 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1409,C05761111,PARADE,preines,H,80,2009-10-24T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/10_11_15_16/DOC_0C05761111/C05761111.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Parade,'preines Huma Abedin; 'sullivanjj@state.gov',H ,,"Saturday, October 24, 2009 10:18 AM",F-2014-20439,C05761111,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,What did you think of the photo and article?,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761111 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: H +Sent: Saturday, October 24, 2009 10:18 AM +To: 'preines Huma Abedin; 'sullivanjj@state.gov' +Subject: Parade +What did you think of the photo and article? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761111 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1410,C05761113,MESSAGE FROM JOHNNIE CARSON - UGANDA HATE CRIMES,millscd@state.gov,H,80,2009-10-24T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/10_11_15_16/DOC_0C05761113/C05761113.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Message from Johnnie Carson - Uganda Hate Crimes,'millscd@state.gov',H ,"Posner, Michael H; Yamamoto, Donald Y; Lanier, Jerry P (Kampala); Bando, Jun","Saturday, October 24, 2009 10:25 AM",F-2014-20439,C05761113,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"That is good news.

Really worth reading. +This Week in Copenhagen +December 12, 2009 +Editorial +We didn't expect much from the first week of the global warming conference in Copenhagen. Countries need to do a +little posturing before getting down to the hard work, which is supposed to start on Monday. But the belligerent talk +from China seemed to go well beyond the usual positioning. • +•The best hope is that the talks will produce an interim understanding under which industrialized countries would +commit to fairly precise targets for reduced emissions, and others, like China, to broader but measurable goals. The +industrial countries would be expected to help poorer countries shift to less-polluting forms of energy. +That would set the stage for a legally binding deal in 2010. But there is no chance of even an interim agreement without +the enthusiastic participation of China, the biggest emitter of greenhouse gases. China's absence would give other +developing countries — and the United States Senate — an excuse to do less than needed. +Beijing's recent pledge to slow the growth in emissions seemed like a positive shift in attitude. Then on Tuesday, in a +surprising show of defensiveness, China's top negotiator, Su Wei, said the greatest burden rested with the industrialized +countries and jumped on the United States, Japan and the European Union for not being aggressive enough. Another +Chinese official urged Washington to do ""some deep soul-searching"" and improve its proposal. +Todd Stern, the chief American negotiator, responded correctly: With emissions in many industrialized countries peaking +or declining, just about all of the growth in greenhouse gases is expected to come from the developing world between +now and 2030, half from China. Rich nations must still reduce emissions sharply, Mr. Stern said, but ""there is no way to +solve this problem by giving the major developing countries a pass."" +China has also been demanding that rich nations contribute hundreds of millions of dollars a year to help poor countries +address the threat of climate change. Again Mr. Stern was blunt. Washington is prepared to help those who need it, but +given China's huge reserves and revved-up economy, he said he could not envision ""public funds, certainly not from the +United States, going to China."" +The most positive development has been a pledge by the European Union to contribute $10.5 billion over the next three +years to help poorer countries deal with climate change. The United States has said that it will make a contribution but +has not said how big it will be. +Transparency is another difficult issue that must be resolved, at least in principle, this week. There is no point in setting +targets, or threatening penalties for noncompliance, unless countries are required to report emissions accurately. +Transparency has never been one of Beijing's virtues, and emerging countries generally need aid to create sophisticated +monitoring systems. +Copenhagen's broadest challenge is finding an equitable way to distribute the burden of confronting climate change. +Despite some differences, the industrialized nations have pretty much agreed to trim their emissions by 15 percent to 20 +percent from 2005 levels in the next 10 years, and by 80 percent by midcentury. And all seem to be willing to make +expensive investments to get there. President Obama will need help from Congress, no sure thing. +A host of developing countries — including India, Brazil, Indonesia — have put broad goals on the table, though in.some +cases they seem more aspirational than real. But the bottom line is that the hope for a meaningful deal is vanishingly +small if China doesn't sign on. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761219 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1473,C05761220,,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-05-06T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_18-20M/DOC_0C05761220/C05761220.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,FW:,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Toiv, Nora F","Wednesday, May 06, 2009 8:29 AM",F-2014-20439,C05761220,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"I think you still should do but see below.

Washington is prepared to help those who need it, but +given China's huge reserves and revved-up economy, he said he could not envision ""public funds, certainly not from the +United States, going to China."" +The most positive development has been a pledge by the European Union to contribute $10.5 billion over the next three +years to help poorer countries deal with climate change. The United States has said that it will make a contribution but +has not said how big it will be. +Transparency is another difficult issue that must be resolved, at least in principle, this week. There is no point in setting +targets, or threatening penalties for noncompliance, unless countries are required to report emissions accurately. +Transparency has never been one of Beijing's virtues, and emerging countries generally need aid to create sophisticated +monitoring systems. +Copenhagen's broadest challenge is finding an equitable way to distribute the burden of confronting climate change. +Despite some differences, the industrialized nations have pretty much agreed to trim their emissions by 15 percent to 20 +percent from 2005 levels in the next 10 years, and by 80 percent by midcentury. And all seem to be willing to make +expensive investments to get there. President Obama will need help from Congress, no sure thing. +A host of developing countries — including India, Brazil, Indonesia — have put broad goals on the table, though in some +cases they seem more aspirational than real. But the bottom line is that the hope for a meaningful deal is vanishingly +small if China doesn't sign on. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761222 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1475,C05761230,SCHEDULE,ValmoroLJ@state.gov,H,80,2009-12-13T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/10_11_15_16/DOC_0C05761230/C05761230.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Schedule,'ValmoroU@state.gov'; Huma Abedin,H ,,"Sunday, December 13, 2009 7:45 AM",F-2014-20439,C05761230,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"What happens to my schedule if I have to go to Copenhagen, probably Wed-Fri?","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761230 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: H +Sent: Sunday, December 13, 2009 7:45 AM +To: 'ValmoroU@state.gov'; Huma Abedin +Subject: Schedule +What happens to my schedule if I have to go to Copenhagen, probably Wed-Fri? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761230 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1476,C05761232,PAKISTAN INTERVIEWS,sullivanjj@state.gov,H,80,2009-10-25T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05761232/C05761232.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Pakistan interviews,'sullivanij@state.gov'; Huma Abedin,H ,,", Sunday, October 25, 2009 8:06 PM",F-2014-20439,C05761232,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Do we have good answers for the Blackwater allegations?

I would like to take this opportunity to make a +brief suggestion for Thursday's trip to Haiti: +We discussed the catalytic role the United States could play in leveraging much needed private +investment in large scale job creation, for example through direct involvement of OPIC. In my +report I pointed out that the port in Port-au-Prince is the most expensive port in the Caribbean +and recommended the opening of new private ports. Ports remain a critical bottleneck to a job +creation strategy both in garment manufacturing and agriculture. They also play a pivotal role in +ensuring that some of the complementary imports necessary for the proposed road construction +projects can enter the country both in the required quantities and in a cost-effective and timely +manner. Elsewhere I have argued that spiraling prices in construction booms often mean that +available funds only go half way to the finishing line. +The Haitian authorities have already made inroads in addressing some of these inefficiencies and +stand ready to do more. In fact, Prime Minister Pierre-Louis noted in the letter to investors which +was presented at the meeting with Charles Rangel and garment entrepreneurs on Monday, that +""ISPS certification of port facilities and alleviation of customs procedures"" are in progress.

Sid +CONFIDENTIAL +October 27, 2009 +For: Hillary +From: Sid +Re: Latest on EU presidency +The political timing on the EU presidency is accelerating. Sarkozy and Merkel are meeting tonight (October 18) to discuss +it. The Czech constitutional court will issue its verdict on the legality of the Lisbon treaty on November 3. Shortly after, +perhaps that week, before you meet with Merkel on November 8-9, there may be an EU Council meeting to decide the +matter. So you may want to weigh in before then. +Tony is somewhat downcast on his chances. (He met with Jim Hoagland of the Washington Post yesterday; his mood +was described to me.) The Tories have ramped up their campaign against him—not only do they not want him but they +also do not want an effective EU president. Cameron has come down on the side of the anti-EU wing of his party on this, +an easy move. In an intriguing complication, there's talk now of David Miliband becoming EU foreign secretary if Tony +does not become EU president. Miliband denied he was interested and endorsed Tony. This is part of the anti-Blair +campaign ginned up by the Tories, extended to hurt Miliband if they can. Jonathan Powell is less gloomy than Tony, +thinks everything is still in play, which is why your part in this may yet be important. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761296 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1515,C05761298,FOLLOWUP ON DANSPECKGRUBER,H,"Sullivan, Jack",87,2009-05-07T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/20_21_22/DOC_0C05761298/C05761298.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,followup on Danspeckgruber,,Jake Sullivan <_,,"Thursday, May 7, 2009 6:39 PM",F-2014-20439,C05761298,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Holbrooke's shop reached out to Danspeckgruber and offers the following update: +• Funding for railroads in and out of Afghanistan is on the agenda of next week's Regional Economic +Cooperation Conference on Afghanistan in Islamabad.

LEW +DEPARTMENT OF STATE +Fiscal 2010 State-Foreign Operations Appropriations +Introduction: A New American Leadership +Madam Chairwoman, Representative Granger, members of the subcommittee, it is an +honor to appear before you today to discuss the principles and priorities that underlie +President Obama's international affairs budget request for 2010. During our first months +in office, the Obama Administration has launched an ambitious foreign policy agenda, +recognizing, as the President has said, that the challenges of our time will not wait for +sequencing. The United States confronts what may well be the most complex array of +threats in our history -- Iraq, Afghanistan, and Pakistan, terrorism, climate change, +pandemic disease, extreme poverty, nuclear proliferation, and global criminal networks. +American leadership remains essential. But we cannot meet these threats alone. Nor can +we use only one set of tools. Tackling these challenges successfully -- and seizing the +opportunity to help build a more peaceful and prosperous world -- requires robust +partnerships, greater capacity, and stronger institutions. It also means that we must invest +more in the programs and people with the skills and capabilities to address these complex +challenges. +This approach is what Secretary of State Clinton has called ""smart power."" As she has +explained, only through the appropriate use of smart power -- harnessing the tools of +diplomacy, development and defense -- will we succeed. These three pillars of smart +power are essential to prevent and deter conflict and emerging threats. +The resources in this budget fund the operational elements required to support two pillars +of our smart-power strategy -- diplomacy and development. We know that the key to our +security and prosperity is a stable and secure world. And we also know that our power +does not just come from our military might, but from our values, our capacity to form +strong partnerships, and our ability to improve the lives of others so we do not pay the +price of global poverty, instability, and ultimately, conflict. This budget represents a +fraction of what our government spends each year on what has traditionally been defined +as national security, reflecting the cost-effectiveness of prevention through diplomacy +and development. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +That is why the Secretary of Defense has come to Congress and asked that more +resources be devoted to foreign affairs. As Secretary Gates said in his recent testimony +with Secretary Clinton, ""I believe that the challenges confronting our nation cannot be +dealt with by military means alone. They instead require whole-of-government +approaches -- but that can only be done if the State Department is given resources +befitting the scope of its mission across the globe. This is particularly important in +Afghanistan and Pakistan, where our ability to provide resources beyond military power +will be the decisive factor."" Or, as Senators Kerry and Lugar noted in their successful +bipartisan effort to fully fund international affairs in the Budget Resolution, ""From +pandemics to climate change to failed states, this century's security challenges demand a +new level of commitment to diplomacy and development. With this relatively small +investment, we are making significant strides toward restoring America's leadership role +in the world."" +This budget -- a total of $53.9 billion, of which $48.6 billion is for the State Department +and USAID -- is a 9 percent increase over the total FY 2009 funding level, including +supplemental appropriations. It reflects the Obama Administration's commitment to +fiscal discipline and transparency by shifting funding for predictable and recurring +programs, previously funded in emergency supplemental appropriations, into the +FY 2010 request. +.We understand that this is a difficult moment to ask the American people to support even +a modest increase in spending overseas. At the same time, the American people +understand that our future security depends on avoiding future conflicts that will force us +to pay a terrible cost in lives and dollars. Humanitarian objectives are also security +requirements. Children need basic education to pursue opportunities rather than hatred; +parents need jobs to reject the appeal of extremists who often seem to offer the only way +to support their families; and for many, survival requires minimal access to basic health +care services. With this request, we seek to strengthen America's position of global +leadership -- ensuring that we remain a force for peace and prosperity in the world, +advancing our own security even as we expand the circle of dignity and opportunity for +people left outside of it. +Five Smart Power Funding Objectives +First, we must build the civilian capacity within the Department of State and USAID +necessary for 21st Century missions. +Our diplomatic and development missions have evolved. Foreign and civil service +personnel deploy alongside the military in Afghanistan and Iraq, reaching far beyond +embassy walls to connect with citizens and communities whose support we enlist to +suppress insurgency and drive out enemies like the Taliban and al-Qaeda. They build the +capacity of fledgling political parties, ministries, and trade associations. They help create +the conditions for economic growth and democratic progress, and lay the groundwork for +expanded access to health, education, and other basic needs. And they build the alliances +necessary to use smart power;including multilateral engagement and private sector +2 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +collaboration. Our diplomatic and development teams are increasingly posted in +situations that resemble military conditions rather than traditional diplomatic +assignments. We simply cannot spread our workforce thinner, and thinner without +increasing the risk that while we address a current hotspot we are missing an opportunity +to prevent the next crisis or engage in such a way as to build new and capable partners. +The FY 2010 budget requests $283 million to support adding over 740 new Foreign +Service personnel at the Department of State, a significant step toward achieving a 25 +percent increase in State Foreign Service personnel over four years. I want to call special +attention, however, to our efforts to rebuild USAID, where, as many of you have noted, +human resources have significantly eroded over the past decade, even as we have ramped +up development activities and our expectations of our lead development institution. The +FY 2010 request includes a 45 percent increase in USAID operations to support adding +an additional 350 new permanent USAID Foreign Service Officers and related capital +improvements under the Agency's Development Leadership Initiative. The FY 2010 +budget puts the USAID on a path to double its Foreign Service officers by 2012. The +budget also would provide the resources needed to train the expanded workforces of both +State and USAID with the language, diplomatic, development and managerial skills +necessary for their mission, and allow us to increase civilian presence and leadership in +places like Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq. +We must not only expand our reach but improve our management and oversight capacity. +We see contract reform as a critical component of that effort. In FY 1990, USAID +employed nearly 3,500 permanent direct hires administering $5 billion a year in +assistance. As of FY 2008, USAID employed about 2,200 permanent direct hires +administering $13.2 billion in assistance. USAID's ability to provide strategic direction +and appropriate oversight is clearly challenged at this level. This diminished workforce +has resulted in contracting out more and more programs and activities, bundling activities +under large mechanisms, and in many cases, higher overall costs. +The only way to reverse this trend is to increase the core of foreign and civil service staff +whose full time and sole responsibility is to serve their mission. Foreign and civil service +officers on the ground need to be developing objectives, working with locally based +organizations, providing oversight, and making decisions about how resources are +utilized. We have announced our intent to double foreign assistance by 2015. This can +only be accomplished if we have the people on board to drive the program. +The State Department has long needed greater capacity to respond quickly to stabilize +situations at times of conflict or crisis. These situations may be caused by political or +natural disasters, but they share a common need for a rapid civilian response. Our +military men and women are often called upon to respond to situations for which they +were not trained and where a civilian presence would be more effective. The military has +done an extraordinary job, but it cannot -- and should not -- handle these situations alone. +In order to build the capacity to deploy civilians rapidly, we are requesting $363 million +for the Civilian Stabilization Initiative. This will expand our total response team to over +four thousand persons and greatly increases our ability to prevent and respond to conflict +3 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +with an immediately deployable civilian counterpart to the U.S. military, ready and able +to help stabilize countries in the transition from war to peace. +Included in that request is $40 million for a Stabilization Bridge Fund, which will provide +the Civilian Responders immediate resources for critical transition and stabilization +programs to reduce the need for long-term deployments of military forces or +peacekeepers. Separately, we also request $76 million for a Rapid Response Fund to help +stabilize turmoil in new and fragile democracies, such as what we saw during Kenya's +most recent election, where a quick infusion of resources can help reconcile competing +interests and support the will of the people. +In order to increase personnel and conflict response capacity, we also need the tools and +infrastructure to enable our overseas personnel to do their jobs. The FY 2010 budget +includes $2.095 billion to construct safe, secure, functional new embassies; a +strengthened American presence in critical emerging areas; and expanded and secure +global classified and unclassified information technology networks. These resources also +support efforts to improve the efficiency of diplomatic and development operations, +including modernizing antiquated software systems; integrating State and USAID +information technology; participating in e-government initiatives that promote +transparency, accountability and citizen engagement; upgrading reporting and financial +management systems, and consolidating State and USAID administrative platforms. +Smart power means using all of the tools available to reach out to the world, and the FY +2010 budget requests $1.13 billion for public diplomacy and educational and cultural +exchanges, providing the resources required to engage and influence people around the +world, advance understanding of our country's principles and values, and facilitate the +formation of strategic partnerships through the exchange of people and ideas. These +programs connect people to people -- exchanging knowledge, information, and expertise, +and bring people together around shared values. Public diplomacy programs often help +build the sustainable relationships with local communities that become foundations of our +development programs. And in a world in which 60 percent of the population is under +the age of 30, our youth programs are among the most critical investments we can make. +Extracurricular programs, educational opportunities, and exchanges help divert at-risk +youth away from the influence of violent actors, and the use of innovative new media +greatly expands our reach into this critical population. +Second, we must promote long-term development and human security -- both from +the top-down and bottom-up. +Americans have seen first-hand the threats that emerge from ungoverned spaces -- the +dangers that can take root with poverty, political oppression, and disenfranchisement. +Elevating development alongside diplomacy as an equal pillar of our foreign policy is not +only a moral commitment, but a national security imperative. Our superb military can +stem conflict, but it cannot lay the foundations of long-term economic growth, good +governance, and human capacity that will result in sustainable peace and prosperity. In +the long run, the more effective we are at development, the less we will be forced to turn +to defense. +4 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +Our ""top-down"" development strategy must strengthen the ability of governments to +support just and capable institutions that meet the basic needs of their populations; and +the enabling environment for broad-based, equitable economic growth, including access +to the global economy. +Our ""bottom-up"" development strategy partners with citizens and civic groups to build +human capacity, ultimately spurring the power of individuals and societies to innovate, +cooperate, and solve problems -- both locally and globally. Overall, 56 percent of our +assistance request is targeted to development programs, with special emphasis on +economic development and good governance, global health, food security, education, and +global climate change. +As Secretary Clinton has said, ""We believe that extreme poverty poses a grave threat to +global security and certainly to prosperity."" Development experts have predicted that 50 +million more people could end up living in poverty this year. A sharp increase in global +poverty has the potential to spark new humanitarian crises, erode gains from a wide range +of U.S. taxpayer investments in development, reverse progress toward achieving the +Millennium Development goals, and destabilize countries that are our partners. Many +responsible countries cannot raise funds to support safety nets, restore financial markets, +or serve the poor. +These burdens will disproportionately fall on women and children, who are the most +marginalized in many populations and who constitute the great majority of poor around +the globe. Raising the status of women and their families -- and supporting their +participation in the political, economic and social spheres of society -- is a key ingredient +of our development goals. Moreover, investing in women is one of the most effective +development tools for poverty alleviation and a country's general prosperity. It remains a +simple fact that no country can hope to get ahead if half of its citizens are left behind. In +recognition of this imperative, the Secretary has consolidated activities that were spread +across the State Department in an Office of Global Women's Issues to ensure that our +foreign policy programs, including our development initiatives, reflect the needs and +perspectives of women and girls. +Economic Development & Good Governance: The FY 2010 request demonstrates the +Administration's strong commitment to fighting poverty, both because it is important for +our national security interests, but also to further American values. Funding for +economic growth and democratic progress, both critical to achieving sustainable +development and accountable governance, are up significantly over last year's level: +$4.7 billion -- a 16 percent increase over FY 2009 -- is requested to drive economic +growth; and $2.8 billion -- a nine percent increase over FY 2009 -- is requested for +assistance to strengthen democracy and good governance worldwide. +Support for economic growth and governance is particularly critical in Africa and each is +up by more than 30 percent over the current year: economic growth in Africa grows from +$891 million in FY 2009 to a request of $1.175 billion, and governance from $265 +million to $347 million. Funding is targeted to development needs and economic +opportunity and governance programs critical to the success of the investments we have +5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +made through the Millennium Challenge Corporation and the President's Emergency +Plan for AIDS Relief. +Food Security: The President announced at the G20 meeting in London that we will +seek to double U.S. financial support for agricultural development in developing +countries in order to, in his words, ""give people the tools they need to lift themselves out +of poverty."" The FY 2010 request makes good on this commitment by including $1.36 +billion, an increase of 62 percent from last year, including the FY 2009 Spring +Supplemental Request, to address the root causes of food insecurity by increasing +agricultural production and productivity. Our strategy meets short-term needs and builds +long-term foundations to reduce food insecurity by improving production, increasing +rural household incomes, improving the nutritional status of children, and reducing +reliance on international food aid. Another $1.99 billion will be used to provide food aid, +of which $300 million will support emergency food security interventions such as cash +voucher and cash transfer programs and the local and regional purchase of food. +Education: Our request for basic education expands the United States' leadership in +global efforts to help all girls and boys access quality basic education. The FY 2010 +request ramps up support for basic education to nearly $1 billion, an increase of 26 +percent over the current year, to expand access to schooling, improve educational quality, +increase emphasis on educational results, and provide alternatives to extremist ideology. +The request expands focus to include at-risk and out-of-school youth, and programs are +coordinated with partner countries, other donors, and multilateral institutions, including +the Education For All Fast-Track Initiative, to reduce the global education deficit. +Global Climate Change: Since taking office, President Obama and Secretary Clinton +have made it clear that the United States is fully engaged and committed to meeting the +challenges of climate change. The Obama Administration is bringing significant +resources to the table -- almost a $1 billion overall U.S. Government increase, including +funds requested by the Treasury Department, signifying robust and ambitious measures +by the Obama Administration to combat climate change and help put the world on a +pathway to a low carbon future. +Within the State and USAID budget, the FY 2010 request includes $309 million of +additional international climate change assistance, added to an FY 2009 base of $272 +million for a total of $581 million. These funds will help developing countries most +vulnerable to the impacts of climate change adapt and become more climate-resilient and +also assist them in pursuing low carbon economies through the development of clean +energy alternatives. Further, we will support international programs aimed at reducing +emissions from the energy sector, industry, and urban areas and encourage sustainable +water and land use, including deforestation, which accounts for about 17 percent of +global greenhouse gas emission. +Global Health: The United States continues to lead on global health in HIV/AIDS, TB, +and malaria, and we are now taking the next steps that will save the lives of millions +more women, children and families in the developing world. The FY 2010 budget +request includes $7.6 billion for global health programs for the Global Health and Child +6 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +Survival (GHCS) Account. This request is part of a six-year, $63 billion effort to launch, +alongside our existing commitments and partners, an integrated approach to increase +resources for maternal and child health, family planning and neglected tropical diseases +with the potential to enhance dramatically quality of life, exponentially increase the +number of lives saved, and break the cycle of poverty and disease. +To combat HIV/AIDS, this budget provides a $100 million increase for HIV \AIDS +bilateral programs over FY 2009 enacted and demonstrates this Administration's +commitment to continuing the fight against HIV/AIDS as the centerpiece of its global +health agenda. In FY 2010, HIV\AIDS funding is almost 75% of the GHCS funding. In +addition, a total of $585 million is requested to support the malaria initiative to reduce +malaria deaths by 50 percent in each of 15 priority countries; and the $525 million +requested for maternal and child health and $475 million requested for family planning is +an increase over the robust levels appropriated by Congress in FY 2009. +Third, we must enhance strategic bilateral and multilateral partnerships critical to +global security, stability, and prosperity. +We must renew our diplomacy and target our development assistance to address global +threats too big and complex to meet alone, helping to develop the capacity of willing +partners to work with us to solve global problems. Our strategy focuses on states that can +or must be partners in regional peace and prosperity and those tipping-point states whose +frailties present regional and global threats. And it seeks to leverage multilateral +engagement, always a force multiplier in addressing challenges of mutual concern. +Our simultaneous top-down and bottom-up approach allows us to focus on building +much-needed capabilities in government institutions while at the same time reaching out +directly to meet humanitarian needs of the population. As the President and Secretary +have made clear, the Administration is committed to ensuring that our spending in these +areas is guided by clear plans with achievable outcomes. Such assistance will not be a +blank check -- we will hold ourselves and others accountable and establish clear +indicators for success. +In Afghanistan, we are seeking to help develop self-reliant Afghanistan Security Forces; +promoting capable, accountable and effective government at the provincial, local and +national levels; ramping up quick impact civilian assistance efforts that promote licit +economic opportunities to support counter-insurgency efforts; and increasing alternative +development funding as part of our counter-narcotics strategy. The FY 2010 request +includes significant resources for non-military assistance to Afghanistan -- $2.79 billion - +- an increase of four percent over the FY 2009 total, including the Spring Supplemental +Request. +In Pakistan, we will work toward improving Pakistan's capability to fight extremists; +strengthening government capacity and the rule of law; providing emergency economic +relief and promoting economic growth, agriculture, infrastructure, and education as +alternatives to extremist ideology; and developing a strategic communications strategy to +counter terrorist propaganda. The FY 2010 request for Pakistan is $1.6 billion, an 11 +7 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +percent increase from FY 2009 and a tripling of non-military aid from $457 million in FY +2008 to $1.3 billion in FY 2010. +And in Iraq, our funding request advances efforts to continue our support toward greater +Iraqi self reliance. The FY 2010 request of $500 million, a decrease of 18 percent from +the FY 2009 total, focuses on key areas that will help the Iraqis lay a foundation for +lasting peace and stability, including strengthened institutional capacity at both the +national and provincial levels, assistance to displaced Iraqis, and support to advance +national reconciliation. +In the broader Middle East, we will continue to work to support greater stability and +prosperity. The United States remains committed to a comprehensive and secure peace +between Israel and its Arab neighbors, including a two-state solution to the Israeli- +Palestinian conflict. We remain steadfast in our commitment to Israel's security. The FY +2010 request includes $2.8 billion for Israel, a $225 million increase from FY 2009, to +support the second year of a ten-year, $30 billion commitment to help Israel maintain its +qualitative military edge. Other U.S. assistance to the countries of the region, including +Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon, support this objective by fostering stability, security and the +economic prosperity of our allies and mitigating the influence of extremists. +Our assistance also supports the conditions necessary for a Palestinian state to be realized +while continuing to meet immediate humanitarian needs. We are seeking funds to help +strengthen the Palestinian Authority's governing institutions. These steps are essential to +resuming serious negotiations toward a comprehensive peace in the region and +establishment of a Palestinian state that will live side-by-side with Israel in peace and +security. +The FY 2010 request includes $502 million for the West Bank and Gaza to support +reforms of the security sector; improve local infrastructure; build institutional capacity; +strengthen moderate voices, including in the private sector; create jobs; provide necessary +humanitarian assistance; and promote initiatives in health and education. In all cases, our +assistance programs in Gaza will be based on work with fully-vetted private individuals, +organizations, and public international organizations, and will be carried out in a +transparent, accountable manner to help ensure that aid does not end up in the hands of +terrorist organizations. We will work with the Palestinian Authority and our +implementing partners to follow established safeguards that will ensure that our funding +is used only where, and for whom, it is intended. +Finally, in keeping with our prevention strategy, the FY 2010 request increases funding +for Yemen by 83 percent, to $55 million. We believe we must work to help keep Yemen +out of failed state status. We have requested significant across-the-board development +increases in education, health, and jobs creation to mitigate this threat. +Closer to home, we seek to strengthen ties with our partners in Mexico and Central and +South America. Our approach is one of true collaboration, targeted to needs they identify +and building the security capacity of the state while also focusing on the root causes of +crime in the region, including economic inequality, the lack of educational opportunities, +8 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +corruption, impunity, and weak governmental institutions. We request $550 million in +the FY 2010 request to strengthen our efforts under the Merida Initiative to combat +narcotics and arms trafficking, gangs and organized crime in our hemisphere by +strengthening law enforcement and interdiction capacity. Other regional priorities +include continued support for Colombia's fight against terrorism and narcotics trafficking +-- although at a reduced rate as Colombia continues assuming greater responsibility for +counter-narcotics efforts. And we are meeting the President's Summit of the Americas +Commitments with $55 million for energy and climate change, $31 million for a +Caribbean Security Initiative as part of the President's Shared Security Partnership to +compliment Merida, and $10 million for an education partnership for at-risk youth. +Together with the review of our strategy in Haiti, and on the heels of the Secretary's visit, +we are requesting significant funding for Haiti to strengthen its democracy, reduce +poverty, protect the environment, and expand counter-narcotics programs. In the security +sector, U.S. programs will focus on recruiting, training and equipping Haiti's police, and +on stabilizing urban hot zones that until recently were incubators of gang warfare and +political violence. On economic growth, we will focus on developing the country's +finance sector, helping the government create a regulatory environment favorable to +investors, and growing the capacity of the country's agriculture industry. +In Africa, the imperative to counter the threats of AIDS, Malaria, and other major +obstacles to health and prosperity remains compelling. The global economic crisis has hit +Africa harder than expected, with food insecurity exacerbated by low commodity export +revenues and dwindling remittances and investment flows. These factors have threatened +social unrest and political instability, particularly in the form of coups. Our response is +designed to promote economic growth and support good governance in order to create +greater opportunities, as well as to address issues such as food insecurity, with significant +resources targeted to those countries in Africa that have the potential to become regional +bread baskets. We also seek to buttress the continent against the erosion of the hard-won +gains in political stability and democratic progress, particularly in Kenya and Liberia. +Finally, our request is targeted to help resolve and prevent destabilizing conflicts, +especially in Sudan, Somalia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. African +entrepreneurs and civil society leaders have begun to reorient their societies toward +growth and better governance. With our support and partnership, we can save lives, +prevent instability and extremism from advancing, and put Africa back on the road to a +prosperous future. +Many countries of East Asia and the Pacific have, in the course of a generation, lifted +themselves out of poverty and become models for economic prosperity and political +diversity. Our goals for the region include ensuring peace, consolidating democratic +gains, and fostering continued economic reforms to reach the region's poorest citizens. +Our programs in the Philippines and our work in North Korea help to reduce the risk of +terrorism and nuclear proliferation which threaten the United States and the region. On +the democracy front, Secretary Clinton announced the launch of a U.S.-Indonesian +Comprehensive Partnership during her trip to Jakarta in February. This partnership seeks +to support the successful transformation of the world's third largest democracy into a +9 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +stable, democratic and moderate voice, and a beacon of promise around the world. +Finally, our programs in Burma, Cambodia, and Vietnam not only foster a more vibrant +civil society, but put in place the building blocks for prosperity and wellbeing for +vulnerable populations by investing in public health, education, and broad-based +economic development. +In Europe, we are seeking to support policies geared to promote a continent whole, free +and at peace. That includes supporting democratic reformers in Georgia, Ukraine and +Moldova. For Russia, our request seeks to support the efforts of those in Russia +promoting democratic reform while cooperating with the government in areas of common +interest. For Southeast Europe, ensuring the success of newly-independent Kosovo is a +top priority, followed closely by the need to facilitate progress on reform in Serbia and +prevent ethnic-based crises that would prevent implementation of the Dayton Accords in +Bosnia and Herzegovina. In addition, the request restores full U.S. support for the +Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) budget, preventing further +operating shortfalls. Providing full financial support to the OSCE is in keeping with the +Administration's emphasis on revitalizing multilateral engagement, which includes active +participation on our part, as well as a commitment to paying our dues on time and in full. +In all of these areas -- from Iraq and Afghanistan to the Balkans -- our objectives and +investments are greatly enhanced when pursued in partnership with the international +community. Many of our foreign policy challenges rely on coalitions of like-minded +partners, forged within our international institutions. And as demonstrated through our +support for U.N. peacekeeping activities, the dollars we contribute to these fora leverage +significant returns. +Therefore, success lies in maintaining U.S. leadership in the international community. +Responsible global leadership means meeting our financial commitments to international +institutions, even as we work with them to institute reforms to strengthen their efficacy. +The Administration's budget requests $4.1 billion for assessed contributions to +multilateral organizations and peacekeeping assessments, demonstrating our resolve to +work together with members of the international community in the pursuit of common +goals. Our overall request meets U.S. financial commitments to the United Nations and +other international organizations that support a wide range of U.S. national security, +foreign policy, and economic goals, including full funding of all 2010 scheduled +payments to the Multilateral Development Banks, and a portion of outstanding arrears. +Fourth, we must strengthen global security capabilities. +One of the most basic responsibilities of government is to provide security and order to +its people. Our allies and partners must be able to defend their territory and borders +against both external and internal attacks. That is why our strategy seeks to forge +partnerships among states to help build global security capacity in a host of areas, +including peacekeeping, police training, non-proliferation, and combating nuclear +terrorism. Notable examples include our Cooperative Threat Reduction Program with +Russia; the Global Initiative to Combat Nuclear Terrorism, which brings together 75 +10 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +partner countries; and the Proliferation Security Initiative, a global effort that aims to stop +trafficking of weapons of mass destruction supported by over 90 countries. +The FY 2010 request also includes $90 million to launch a new multi-year effort to help +address the wide array of threats posed by terrorist organizations. The Shared Security +Partnership will allow the United States to forge strategic partnerships with allies to +confront common global extremist threats, building on previous law enforcement and +counter-terrorist efforts to create a regional and global information-sharing and +coordination infrastructure. +This budget also continues funding for the Global Peace Operations Initiative (GPOI), +which builds and maintains the capacity and effectiveness of peace operations worldwide. +GPOI is on track to complete its global target of training 75,000 peacekeepers, and is +shifting its focus from the direct training of peacekeepers to building sustainable, +indigenous capacity. Funding will also enhance the ability of our partners to address +counterterrorism threats through the Trans-Sahara Counterterrorism Partnership and the +East Africa Regional Strategic Initiative programs; reform military forces in the +aftermath of conflict into professional military forces with respect for the rule of law, +including those in Southern Sudan, Liberia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and +Somalia; and address critical regional coastal and border security problems in Africa. +Finally, our resource request for nonproliferation, anti-terrorism, and demining activities +is up 17 percent, including increases to expand the terrorist interdiction watchlist system +and efforts to destroy conventional weapons stockpiles. +Fifth, we must maintain the resources to respond to urgent humanitarian needs. +The U.S. remains the leader in responding to the most vulnerable populations, providing +basic life-sustaining support in the face of disasters; and protection of refugees, conflict +victims, and internally displaced persons overseas. Our humanitarian assistance +programs are the most fundamental expression of our values, from responding to the +devastating impacts of the cyclone in Burma to the victims of conflict and instability in +Darfur, Zimbabwe, and now Sri Lanka and Pakistan. We have also seen that leading with +these values has a multiplier effect. It was our humanitarian assistance in the aftermath +of the earthquake in Pakistan that began to turn the sentiments of Pakistani citizens away +from extremists, and to see the United States as a force for good in their lives. And we +know that the deep human suffering -- the lack of access to the most basic of needs -- can +feed instability and further conflict. +Our request aims to budget fully for expected requirements for refugees, rather than +continuing to rely on supplemental appropriations. The request includes $4.1 billion in +refugee, disaster, displaced persons and emergency food assistance, which is part of our +comprehensive U.S. food security efforts. In addition to basic needs, these resources +assist refugees with voluntary repatriation, local integration, or permanent resettlement in +a third country, and provide critical humanitarian relief, rehabilitation, and reconstruction +in countries around the world affected by natural and man-made disasters. +11 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +Conclusion: Managing for Success +Securing the resources to promote our goals is an important step toward restoring +American global leadership. But resources are not enough. With leadership comes +responsibility, and especially in these difficult economic times, we must be better +managers of our resources. Congress has been at the forefront of identifying ways to +improve our assistance policies and practice, and we thank you for your leadership and +welcome your ongoing consultation. +I hope that the simple fact that I am here before you today is a sign of our commitment to +greater fiscal discipline and efficiency in international affairs. One of Secretary Clinton's +first orders of business was to fill for the first time the position of Deputy Secretary of +State for Management and Resources. This reflected her seriousness and determination +that the Department must be a responsible steward of taxpayer dollars and maximize +resources for greatest effect. +Among my first duties has been to undertake a comprehensive review of our foreign +assistance programs. Secretary Clinton has asked me to make recommendations on new +ways to speed the cause of development in nations left behind by poverty, to use foreign +aid to buttress our foreign policy aims, and to bring the full power of our resources to +bear. This effort is well underway, and we look forward to working with you as it +evolves. +At that same time, we are already acting on some of the principles that will help guide +our new approach to foreign assistance. We are learning from real-world experiences +what works and what does not. We are also rethinking where to focus our attention to +best advance our nation's security. +In particular, let me highlight the importance of an integrated approach to development to +our efforts in Afghanistan and Pakistan. To get our policies right toward these two +critically important countries, we must deploy our resources for maximum impact. +Both the State Department and USAID are building upon the Administration's overall +strategic review to craft and implement a comprehensive effort that focuses on ways that +civilian agencies -- State, USAID, working together the Department of Agriculture and +others -- can bolster both security and development. We recognize that over the long +haul, we will not have one without the other. Different agencies have different tools and +different strengths. We are working to unite them behind a common mission. +You can see a similar focus on unity of effort in an entirely different initiative -- the +Administration's efforts to develop a new food security strategy to dramatically reduce +global hunger and poverty. The State Department is leading a whole-of-government +process to design and implement this new strategy. We are creating an inventory of each +agency's programs, identifying gaps in our current programming, and coordinating +among all agencies to develop a shared strategy. +Both of these efforts underscore the need to develop basic mechanisms that allow us to +integrate our strengths -- acting as a sort of diplomatic force multiplier under a shared +12 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 +mission. State and USAID account for about 70 percent of official U.S. development +assistance; we are just two of the nearly 20 U.S. agencies involved in providing foreign +aid. We must care more about strategy, unity and results than we do about turf. We must +be able to look at a country, a function, or an objective, and be able to identify everything +that the US. government is doing in that area -- not just State. To meet the challenges of +a world being bound closer together, we need a government that is working closer +together. +Similarly, we must speak with one voice. Our partners abroad have sometimes received +mixed messages from the array of agencies working in international affairs, each of +which has its own rules of engagement. Our ability to get results on the ground will +depend on our ability to field coordinated teams, both in Washington and around the +globe. This is why we are so urgently focused on better coordination of U.S. efforts in +Afghanistan and Pakistan, and it is why we are reviewing options about how best to +develop systems and incentives to strengthen coordination across our foreign affairs +programs. +Let me also mention another key principle behind our reform efforts: accountability. We +must demand results. That means defining specific strategic priorities; developing and +validating ways to measure performance with OMB, Congress, and other key +stakeholders; and making budget and program-management decisions on the basis of +results -- or lack thereof. +Finally, we are mindful that in an age of economic crisis and foreign challenges, the +United States must be a more effective donor. Development progress is best achieved +when priorities are determined and implemented by responsible partners, and aid levels +are sustained, predictable, and coordinated with other donors. We must continue to strive +for our assistance to be demand-driven, giving our people in the field the means to +leverage opportunities and enhancing our ability to partner with responsible governments. +This is an ambitious agenda, but Secretary Clinton and I are looking forward to the +challenges. With the right resources and your good counsel, we are confident that we can +rise to meet the moment. We look forward to consulting closely with the Congress and +other stakeholders as we continue to move ahead in the coming weeks and months. And +I look forward to our discussion today. Thank you again for having me here today, and +thank you for your time. +13 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761340 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1542,C05761341,THANKS FOR A GREAT JOB,shannonta@state.gov,H,80,2009-10-30T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05761341/C05761341.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Thanks for a great job,'shannonta@state.gov',H ,'ValmoroU@state.gov',"Friday, October 30, 2009 10:11 AM",F-2014-20439,C05761341,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Tom-- +Thanks to you, Craig and Dan for making this happen.

She said +she would seek a briefing on the security situation from the American military commander, Gen. Ray Odierno, in her first +meeting on Saturday, a day packed with appointments. +But she played down suggestions that the attacks augured a return to the relentless sectarian violence that convulsed +Iraq in 2006. She said they did not signal that a new jihadist movement was taking root in Iraq, which could derail the +progress the country has made in the last two years. +""In Iraq, there will always be political conflicts,"" Mrs. Clinton said to reporters before setting off on the unannounced +visit Friday evening. ""But I really believe that Iraq, as a whole, is on the right track."" +She characterized the latest bout of violence as the last gasp of ""rejectionists"" who fear that the government will +succeed in creating a united and peaceful Iraq. The suicide bombings, she said, are ""in an unfortunately tragic way, a +signal that the rejectionists fear that Iraq is going in the right direction."" +""Are there going to be bad days? Yes, there are,"" Mrs. Clinton said.

She said +she would seek a briefing on the security situation from the American military commander, Gen. Ray Odierno, in her first +meeting on Saturday, a day packed with appointments. +But she played down suggestions that the attacks augured a return to the relentless sectarian violence that convulsed +Iraq in 2006. She said they did not signal that a new jihadist movement was taking root in Iraq, which could derail the +progress the country has made in the last two years. +""In Iraq, there will always be political conflicts,"" Mrs. Clinton said to reporters before setting off on the unannounced +visit Friday evening. ""But I really believe that Iraq, as a whole, is on the right track."" +She characterized the latest bout of violence as the last gasp of ""rejectionists"" who fear that the government will +succeed in creating a united and peaceful Iraq. The suicide bombings, she said, are ""in an unfortunately tragic way, a +signal that the rejectionists fear that Iraq is going in the right direction."" +""Are there going to be bad days?

Sid +CONFIDENTIAL +October 31, 2009 +For: Hillary +From: Sid +Re: Cameron Blowup in Europe +Without passing ""Go,"" David Cameron has seriously damaged his relations. with the European leaders. Sending a letter to +Czech leader Vaclay Klaus encouraging him not to sign the Lisbon Treaty, as though Cameron were already Prime +Minister, he has offended Sarkozy., Merkel and Zapatero. Within the Conservative Party the Shadow Foreign Minister +William Hague has arduously pressured for an anti-EU stance, despite his assurances to you that Tory policy toward +Europe would be marked by continuity. Cameron has attempted to straddle factions, fending off calls for a national +referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. But this letter is proof positive of his tilt to the Tory right on Europe. The European +leaders understand that the letter signals his future policy and are reacting accordingly. Cameron's presumptive strike +has accelerated the predicted Tory-European split from post-election to pre-election. Whether this affects Merkel's +attitude on Blair and the EU presidency remains unclear, but Cameron's high-handed behavior is precisely the sort of +thing that provokes her. See the Guardian report below: +Guardian +Europe leaders incensed by David Cameron's letter Sarkozy, Merkel and Zapatero criticise Tories for attempt to delay +treaty Nicholas Watt and Ian Traynor + +guardian.co.uk , Friday 30 October 2009 22.21 GMT Leaders of three of the most powerful +countries in Europe have strongly criticised David Cameron at the +EU summit over Conservative plans to scupper the Lisbon treaty. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761367 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761367 Date: 06/30/2015 +Nicolas Sarkozy, Angela Merkel and Jose Luiz Rodriguez Zapatero are understood to have privately criticised the Tory +leader after he sent a handwritten letter to the Czech president Vaclay Klaus, who is refusing to sign the treaty. The +letter was seen as an attempt to influence the Czech Republic, the only country not to have ratified the treaty. +Senior British sources familiar with thinking at the highest levels of the EU say that the leaders of France, Germany + and Spain all raised +questions about the Cameron letter. +It is understood that Cameron encouraged Klaus to delay the ratification of the treaty by setting out Tory policy to hold a +referendum in Britain on the treaty if it has not been ratified by all member states. +The sources have told the Guardian that: +*Sarkozy was overheard telling Gordon Brown that he was incensed by Cameron's letter, which the French saw as an +attempt to wreck the Lisbon treaty. +• Merkel was also said to be upset by Cameron's letter. The German chancellor is understood to have echoed concerns +of senior figures in her CDU party, such as the former European parliament president Hans Gert Poettering, that +Cameron's behaviour had been untrustworthy. +• Zapatero — who addressed the recent Labour party conference and will have to negotiate directly with Cameron if he +wins the election because Spain holds the EU's rotating presidency until July 2010 — made clear to diplomats that he +regarded Cameron's letter as damaging and an attempt to scupper the treaty. +The interventions by the EU leaders come as the Tories plan to abandon their two-year campaign to hold a referendum +on the Lisbon_treaty. Senior Tories told the Guardian that Cameron will set out his thinking in the coming weeks if, as +expected, the Czech president finally ratifies the treaty. +It is understood that Cameron will drop his pledge to hold a referendum on the treaty on the grounds that it is +impossible to open a treaty that has entered EU law. A Tory government would instead focus on repatriating social and +employment laws, in effect restoring the British opt-out from the social chapter. This has been sprinkled around various +EU treaties since Tony Blair ended the opt-out in 1997, meaning that its measures could only be restored to Britain with +the agreement of all member states. +Brown yesterday used his appearance at the summit, where he held a series of formal and informal one-to-one +meetings with EU leaders, to launch a strong attack on the Tories' approach to Europe. Speaking of the Tory decision to +abandon the main centre-right EPP grouping in the European parliament in favour of a smaller group consisting mainly +of fringe parties from the hard right in eastern Europe, the prime minister said: ""The Conservative party are standing +apart from the mainstream in Europe. +""They are part of a very small group of minorities — of 23 people apart from the Conservative party. They are standing on +the fringes of Europe. That is a huge mistake for British interests."" +A Tory spokeswoman said: ""We have never concealed the fact that we sent the letter ... David Cameron has made no +secret of its contents. It sets out his public opinion in a private letter."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761367 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1564,C05761368,CDM IN NY ON WEDNESDAY FOR FUNERAL,"Sullivan, Jacob J","Mills, Cheryl",32,2009-05-18T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/20_21_22/DOC_0C05761368/C05761368.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,CDM in NY on Wednesday for Funeral,"'Sullivan, Jacob J'; 'Abedin, Huma'; 'Lew, Jacob J'",Cheryl Mills,laszczychj@state.gov; ToivNF@state.gov,"Monday, May 18, 2009 9:56 PM",F-2014-20439,C05761368,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"I will be out on Weds to attend a funeral so am going to adjust my calendar accordingly tomorrow. +cdm","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761368 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Cheryl Mills +Sent: Monday, May 18, 2009 9:56 PM +To: 'Sullivan, Jacob J'; 'Abedin, Huma'; 'Lew, Jacob J' +Cc: laszczychj@state.gov; ToivNF@state.gov +Subject: CDM in NY on Wednesday for Funeral +I will be out on Weds to attend a funeral so am going to adjust my calendar accordingly tomorrow. +cdm +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761368 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1565,C05761370,YOUR BOSS,millscd@state.gov,H,80,2009-10-31T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/12_13_14/DOC_0C05761370/C05761370.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Your boss,'millscd@state.gov',H ,,"Saturday, October 31, 2009 3:16 AM",F-2014-20439,C05761370,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Wow!

Indeed, the volume of literature on this topic led the +Center for Global Engagement to produce a ""Report on Reports,"" to summarize the +major points of consensus and disagreement among reports and outline another +series of recommendations. To make the key decisions to shape our foreign +assistance reform effort we need to answer three basic questions: (1) What are we +trying to achieve? (2) Where are we now? and (3) What do we need to change? +The U.S. Record on Foreign Assistance +The U.S. is the world's largest donor of bilateral foreign assistance. In calendar +year 2008 the United States disbursed $26 billion in Official Development +Assistance (ODA). Elements of this assistance include: +• $6.5 billion to sub-Saharan Africa, an increase from $4.6 billion in 2007; +• $6.9 billion in bilateral assistance to least developed countries; +• $4.4 billion in U.S. humanitarian assistance. +In addition, over the past five years the U.S. committed: +• $18.8 billion in funding through the U.S. President's Emergency Plan for +AIDS Relief to treat HIV\AIDS, Malaria & TB; +• $6.4 billion in Compact funding for 18 strongly performing countries by the +Millennium Challenge Corporation. +The President's 2010 budget request provides $53.9 billion to State and other +international programs, of which $36.5 billion is for foreign assistance -- putting +the U.S. on the path to doubling foreign assistance by 2015. Meanwhile the 2009 +supplemental funding meets diplomatic and assistance needs focused on terrorism, +humanitarian assistance, stabilization and peacekeeping operations including in +Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761432 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761432 Date: 06/30/2015 +I. What are we trying to achieve? +The development of a comprehensive foreign assistance strategy requires both an +articulation of the problems we seek to address, as well as the principles, +objectives, and operational strategies that will guide our efforts. We have already +defined and articulated a number of ideas: Smart Power; the Three Ds — defense, +diplomacy and development; and the three P's of principles, partnership, and +pragmatism. Our challenge is to further define: +> What are the goals of our foreign assistance programs? +> What principles and objectives should guide the formulation of our strategy? +> What emphasis should be placed on security and strategic objectives, vice +humanitarian and poverty goals? +> What problems are we trying to solve? +> What gaps remain in our foreign assistance programs relative to the +outcomes we seek? +> How do we need to be organized to get the job done? +> What budget, planning and coordination functions do we need in the long- +term and in the short-term during the period of transition? +II. Where are we now? +In keeping with the Administration's commitment to renewing America's global +leadership through vigorous diplomacy and innovative development efforts, initial +efforts have focused on getting State and USAID the resources needed to rebuild +capacity and on the civilian aspects of our most immediate foreign policy priorities +(Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq) : +The 2009 Omnibus and supplemental start the investment in capacity; +The 2010 Budget increases investment in capacity and program; +Afghanistan, food security, global health and other initiatives reflect new +approach to coordination and identification of key objectives; +2 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761432 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761432 Date: 06/30/2015 +The 2011 Budget process is being developed to drive collaboration across +silos, integrating USAID, MCC, PEPFAR with regional and functional +bureaus of State; +In the short-term, Defense authorizations have been limited in time and +scope and are now in process to be driven to strategic resolution; +Proposed foreign aid authorization bills and NSC processes create pressure +to accelerate work on a long-term strategic plan. +III. What needs to be changed? +Our foreign assistance programs are too fractured and discordant and the question +is what policy and structural changes are needed to achieve a greater level of +coordination and coherence. The following structures and mechanisms form the +key elements of any reform agenda: +(1) Structural & Management Change: DC +> What should be the relationship between State and USAID? Between +State and MCC? Between PEPFAR and these institutions? To the extent +changes in structures and relationships require legislative reform, what is +the likelihood this can be achieved? +> What is the best budget management structure within the State +Department? What is the current budgeting and planning process, and +what role do F and M play in it? +> What training and recruitment practices need to be developed to build the +civilian capacity we need? +(2) Structural & Management Change: Field +> What role should the Ambassador and DCM play in coordinating our +foreign assistance programs in the field? What mechanisms are needed +to achieve greater coordination, including with programs managed from +Washington? +> How can we improve flexibility and responsiveness to circumstances on +the ground? +3 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761432 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761432 Date: 06/30/2015 +(3) Contract Reform +We need to quickly constitute a task force to address issues related to the +following categories of service providers: (1) DC-based contractors +(""Beltway Bandits""); (2) implementing partners and NG0s; and (3) security +and service contracts. +> How do we ensure that even ""good contractors"" receive strategic +guidance at the front end? +> What are alternatives to the contracting model? Nation-to-nation +cooperation, greater reliance on local organizations, public-private +initiatives, economic drivers such as remittances. +(4) Relationship between State and DoD +> What is the appropriate balance between civilian and military +involvement in foreign assistance activities? +> How do we define ""conflict"" situations, and where do we draw the lines +in this regard? +> How do we make sure the authorities and the money move together? +(5) Metrics & Accountability +> How do we measure efficacy and achieve accountability for results? +> How do we create sustainable and durable programs and avoid the +narrow focus on achieving numerical targets? +Coming out of this discussion, we need to define a process that will develop a +comprehensive and detailed strategy that addresses each of these areas.

By DAVID E. SANGER +WASHINGTON — It is not every 31-year-old who, in a first government job, finds himself dismantling General Motors +and rewriting the rules of American capitalism. +But that, in short, is the job description for Brian Deese, a not-quite graduate of Yale Law School who had never set foot +in an automotive assembly plant until he took on his nearly unseen role in remaking the American automotive industry. +Nor, for that matter, had he given much thought to what ailed an industry that had been in decline ever since he was +born. A bit laconic and looking every bit the just-out-of-graduate-school student adjusting to life in the West Wing — +""he's got this beard that appears and disappears,"" says Steven Rattner, one of the leaders of President Obama's +automotive task force — Mr. Deese was thrown into the auto industry's maelstrom as soon the election-night parties +ended. +""There was a time between Nov. 4 and mid-February when I was the only full-time member of the auto task force,"" Mr. +Deese, a special assistant to the president for economic policy, acknowledged recently as he hurried between his desk at +the White House and the Treasury building next door. ""It was a little scary."" +But now, according to those who joined him in the middle of his crash course about the automakers' downward spiral, +he has emerged as one of the most influential voices in what may become President Obama's biggest experiment yet in +federal economic intervention. +While far more prominent members of the administration are making the big decisions about Detroit, it is Mr. Deese +who is often narrowing their options. +A month ago, when the administration was divided over whether to support Fiat's bid to take over much of Chrysler, it +was Mr. Deese who spoke out strongly against simply letting the company go into liquidation, according to several +people who were present for the debate. +""Brian grasps both the economics and the politics about as quickly as I've seen anyone do this,"" said Lawrence H. +Summers, the head of the National Economic Council who is not known for being patient whenever he believes an +analysis is sub-par — or disagrees with his own. ""And there he was in the Roosevelt Room, speaking up vigorously to +make the point that the costs we were going to incur giving Fiat a chance were no greater than some of the hidden costs +of liquidation."" +Mr. Deese was not the only one favoring the Fiat deal, but his lengthy memorandum on how liquidation would increase +Medicaid costs, unemployment insurance and municipal bankruptcies ended the debate. The administration supported +Q1 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761441 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761441 Date: 06/30/2015 +the deal, and it seems likely to become a reality on Monday, if a federal judge handling the high-speed bankruptcy +proceeding approves the sale of Chrysler's best assets to the Italian carmaker. +Mr. Deese's role is unusual for someone who is neither a formally trained economist nor a business school graduate, and +who never spent much time flipping through the endless studies about the future of the American and Japanese auto +industries. +He lives a dual life these days. He starts the day at a desk wedged just outside of Mr. Summers's office, where he can +hear what young members of the economic team have come to know as ""the Summers bellow."" From there, he can +make it quickly to the press office to help devise explanations for whytaxpayers are spending more than $50 billion on +what polls show is a very unpopular bailout of the auto industry. +Several times a day he speed-walks to Treasury, taking a shortcut through the tunnel under the colonnade, near the +kitchens. The other day he talked about how sharply perceptions of the industry's future changed after Mr. Obama's +election. +""At the first meeting with Rick Wagoner,"" he said, referring to G.M.'s recently deposed chief executive, ""they were in a +very different place. He said publicly that bankruptcy was not a viable option. It's been a long process getting everyone +to look at the options differently."" +In fact, from before Inauguration Day, few in Mr. Obama's circle saw any other choice. Every time Mr. Deese ran the +numbers on G.M. and Chrysler, he came back with the now-obvious conclusion that neither was a viable business, and +that their plans to revive themselves did not address the erosion of their revenues. But it took the support of Mr. +Rattner and Ron Bloom, senior advisers to the task force charged with restructuring the automobile industry, to help +turn Mr. Deese's positions into policy. +""The president's instruction to us was that we had to come up with a solution that would work on a commercial basis, +that didn't involve indefinite federal financing,"" Mr. Deese said. ""But we didn't want liquidation, which would have even +worse effects. So the question was how do you design a very substantial restructuring, and do it fast."" +Mr. Deese's route to the auto table at the White House was anything but a straight line. He is the son of a political +science professor at Boston College (his father) and an engineer who works in renewable energy (his mother). He grew +up in the Boston suburb of Belmont and attended Middlebury College in Vermont. He went to Washington to work on +aid issues and was quickly hired by Nancy Birdsall, a widely respected authority on the effectiveness of international aid +and the founder of the Center for Global Development. +But he wanted to learn domestic issues as well, and soon ended up working as an assistant for Gene Sperling, who 17 +years ago in the Clinton White House played a similar role as economic policy prodigy. Eventually, Mr. Deese headed to +Yale for his law degree. But his e-mail box was constantly filled with messages from friends in Washington who were +signing up to work for the Obama or Hillary Rodham Clinton campaigns. Mr. Deese chose Senator Clinton's. +""He was pretty quickly functioning as the top economic policy staffer through her campaign,"" Mr. Sperling said. ""He +could blend the policy needs and the political needs pretty seamlessly."" On the day that the Clinton campaign ended, +Mr. Deese left her concession speech and received a message on his BlackBerry from a friend in the Obama campaign +urging him to sign on immediately to Mr. Obama's team. +He resumed his policy work there, and found himself stuck in Chicago — unable to fly to Washington with his dog — as +the economic crisis deepened. Finally, one night, he decided to get into his car with his dog and just started driving back +to Washington. Tired, he pulled over to catch some sleep in the car. +97 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761441 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761441 Date: 06/30/2015 +""I slept in the parking lot of the G.

""I'm really interested in pursuing this, but I know she +has some hard feelings coming out of this campaign."" Emanuel and John Podesta, the former Clinton official +who ran the transition, assured Obama that she was over those hard feelings now. Obama smiled and said, +""Believe me. She's not over it yet."" +His decision to offer her the job of secretary of state came surprisingly early. Well before the end of the +primaries, when his staff and friends still felt hostile to her, Obama decided that Clinton possessed the qualities +to carry his diplomacy to the rest of the world. ""We actually thought during the primary, when we were pretty +sure we were going to win, that she could end up being a very effective secretary of state,"" he told me later. ""I +felt that she was disciplined, that she was precise, that she was smart as a whip, and that she would present a +really strong image to the world.. .I had that mapped out."" +Recruiting and managing a team of rivals would not be easy, and Clinton came with her own set of issues. Chief +among them was her campaign debt, which she wanted eliminated before she took the job of secretary of state. +Would the president-elect go out and help her to do so? ""I'm not begging her to take this job,"" Obama told his +senior aides. ""If she wants it, I could help. But I'm not willing to go out in these difficult economic times to do a +flashy fundraiser in California."" As it happened, plenty of people in the Senate were begging Obama to offer +Clinton the job. Obama's aides believed that many Senate Democrats thought Clinton had extended her +presidential campaign far beyond the point where she had lost the election. Her negative advertising wasted +Democratic money, threatened to undermine the party's nominee, and suggested that she was disloyal to the +party. They were unwilling to offer the junior New York senator a position ahead of her lowly rank, and she +stood little chance of becoming majority leader. ""There was a lot of encouragement from inside the Senate to +get her into this job,"" said one senior Obama aide. ""They wanted her out of there."" ... +As for controlling the uncontrollable Bill Clinton, Obama's aides drew up a series of checks on his fundraising +for both Clinton Global Initiative and his work on HIV/AIDS across the world.

Jackie +Memorandum +To: Department of State +From: Long Term Strategy Group +Re: +Issue: The Long Term Strategy Group would undertake by means of a consulting agreement to explore major +shifts in American strategy for interacting with the major powers of Asia. This would involve simulations of +alternative interactions among Asian powers, and the impact of alternative American strategies on the outcome +of those interactions. Because these explorations involve speculative contingencies, they are most appropriately +conducted through non-governmental institutions, though they can ultimately be used to inform debate within +the American government. +Background: The strategic landscape of Asia has changed substantially over the last few decades, and may yet +shift suddenly in ways that are currently under-explored. The growth of Chinese power is altering the Asian +balance of power; the government of India is exploring new defense alignments; and Japanese officials are +openly discussing subjects that were previously off limits, up to and including a nuclear weapons option for +Japan. The current economic crisis will very likely lead to higher levels of political instability within major +Asian countries, including China, which may, in turn lead to discontinuities in their external policies, creating a +need to explore a range of possible new political configurations within the region, and possible new modes of +American interaction with traditional allies, new friends, and potential rivals. The explicit examination of these +new configurations and modes of interaction calls for combinations of activities (e.g., conduct of simulations of +long-range regional interactions, some of which entail non-incremental shifts in American foreign policy) and +consideration of scenarios that are inevitably politically sensitive and are most appropriately conducted outside , +the American government. +The role of non-government groups working with the American government to explore speculative +contingencies is well established. The Center for New American Strategy has been exploring strategic options +in Afghanistan. The Brookings Institution and Center for Strategic and International Studies have regularly +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761495 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761495 Date: 06/30/2015 +worked on plans to restructure agencies and departments within the American government that are not as well +positioned to conduct that sort of planning themselves. +The Long Term Strategy Group has specialized in the analysis of modes of strategic decision-making and +behavior that differ from those anticipated by the United States. It has focused on China, Iran, India, Pakistan, +and Japan, and has presented its work to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, National +Intelligence Council, NSC staff members, and the Office of the Secretary of Defense. LTSG has participated in +and organized multiple simulations for the American government to explore the nature and outcome of complex +interactions among states that do not behave in ways commonly anticipated by the United States. As a private, +for-profit organization, it can conduct work that remains the exclusive, not-for-publication property of the +contracting party (i.e., the government). +The initial issues to be explored by LTSG would include: +--The impact of a potential severe and prolonged economic contraction on the foreign policies of China, Japan, +and Russia; the resulting shifts in alliances and relationships of conflict within the region; and the alternative +strategies for interacting with Asia that might be considered by the United States. +--The impact of a potential end of effective central government in Pakistan that leaves a Punjab state co-existing +with a Baluch/Sindh state and an Afghanistan that expands to control the border regions now part of Pakistan. +--The impact of the acquisition of nuclear weapons by Iran on intra-Asian relations. +In each case, the deliverables would constitute one monograph, the conduct of one simulation exercise +involving non-government participants (and government observers/participants if desired), and one workshop +report. +Action: To approve the general plan of work set forth above, and to initiate administrative measures to +complete the work within 15 months of initial approval. +Jacqueline Newmyer +President, Long Term Strategy Group +12 Eliot St., Cambridge, MA 02138 +617-661-1620 (ph) +617-661-1626 (fax) +www.ltstrategy.com +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761495 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1631,C05761496,CAN YOU PUT TOGETHER BRIEFING BOOK ON CLIMATE CHANGE/COPENHAGEN?,sullivanjj@state.gov,H,80,2009-12-15T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/10_11_15_16/DOC_0C05761496/C05761496.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Can you put together briefing book on climate change/Copenhagen?,'sullivanjj@state.gov',H ,,"Tuesday, December 15, 2009 7:34 AM",F-2014-20439,C05761496,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Thx.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761496 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN +FULL +From: H +Sent: Tuesday, December 15, 2009 7:34 AM +To: 'sullivanjj@state.gov' +Subject: Re: Can you put together briefing book on climate change/Copenhagen? +Thx. +Original Message +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +To: H +Sent: Tue Dec 15 07:26:36 2009 +Subject: Re: Can you put together briefing book on climate change/Copenhagen? +I will work on this today.

""I felt that she was disciplined, that she was +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-1014-20439 Doc No. C05761498 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761498 Date: 06/30/2015 +precise, that she was smart as a whip, and that she would present a really strong image to the world...I had that mapped +out."" +Recruiting and managing a team of rivals would not be easy, and Clinton came with her own set of issues. Chief among +them was her campaign debt, which she wanted eliminated before she took the job of secretary of state. Would the +president-elect go out and help her to do so? ""I'm not begging her to take this job,"" Obama told his senior aides. ""If she +wants it, I could help. But I'm not willing to go out in these difficult economic times to do a flashy fundraiser in +California."" As it happened, plenty of people in the Senate were begging Obama to offer Clinton the job. Obama's aides +believed that many Senate Democrats thought Clinton had extended her presidential campaign far beyond the point +where she had lost the election. Her negative advertising wasted Democratic money, threatened to undermine the +party's nominee, and suggested that she was disloyal to the party. They were unwilling to offer the junior New York +senator a position ahead of her lowly rank, and she stood little chance of becoming majority leader. ""There was a lot of +encouragement from inside the Senate to get her into this job,"" said one senior Obama aide. ""They wanted her out of +there."" ... +As for controlling the uncontrollable Bill Clinton, Obama's aides drew up a series of checks on his fundraising for both +Clinton Global Initiative and his work on HIV/AIDS across the world. But they really counted on Hillary to be the ultimate +safeguard - against both her husband and her own ambition. ""It's in her interests to keep him in line,"" warned one senior +Obama aide. Others in Obama's inner circle said the president-elect believed Clinton needed to demonstrate that she +was a team player and to shape her own career and legacy. ""There are plenty who don't trust her and think she still +harbors something,"" said another senior adviser. ""It's still potentially problematic down the road. Barack's thinking on +this is that it's not in her interests to mess with us. She can't win thaffight internally and she's smart enough that she +won't want that fight publicly."" +Several weeks into the administration, even Clinton's internal critics believed the relationship was a success. ""They have +both worked really hard at it,"" said one senior White House official. ""There's a natural affinity and respect that ironically +grew out of being opponents.

This would involve simulations of alternative interactions among Asian +powers, and the impact of alternative American strategies on the outcome of those +interactions. Because these explorations involve speculative contingencies they are most +appropriately conducted through non-governmental institutions, though they can +ultimately be used to inform debate within the American government. +Background: The strategic landscape of Asia has clearly changed substantially over the +last few decades, and may shift suddenly in ways that are currently under-explored. The +growth of Chinese power is altering the Asian balance of power; the government of India +is exploring new defense alignments; and Japanese officials are openly discussing +subjects that were previously off limits, up to and including a nuclear weapons option for +Japan. The current economic crisis will very likely lead to higher levels of political +instability within major Asian countries, including China, which may, in turn lead to +discontinuities in their external policies, creating a need to explore a range of possible +new political configurations within the region, and possible new modes of American +interaction with traditional allies, new friends, and potential rivals. The explicit +examination of these new configurations and modes of interaction calls for combinations +of activities (e.g., conduct of simulations of long-range regional interactions, some of +which entail non-incremental shifts in American foreign policy) and consideration of +scenarios that are inevitably politically sensitive that are most appropriately conducted +outside the American government. +The role of non-government groups working with the American government to explore +speculative contingencies and potentially controversial departures from current policy is +well established. The Center for New American Strategy has been exploring strategic +options in Afghanistan. The Brookings Institution and Center for Strategic and +International Studies have regularly worked on plans to restructure agencies and +departments within the American government that are not as well positioned to conduct +that sort of planning themselves. +The Long Term Strategy Group has specialized in the analysis of modes of strategic +decision-making and behavior that differ from those anticipated by the United States. It +has focused on China, Iran, India, Pakistan, and Japan, and has presented its work to the +Office of the Director of National Intelligence, National Intelligence Council, NSC staff +members, and the Office of the Secretary of Defense, and participated in and organized +multiple simulations for the American government to explore the nature and outcome of +complex interactions among states that do not behave in ways commonly anticipated by +the United States. As a private, for-profit organization, it can conduct work that remains +the exclusive, not-for-publication property of the contracting party (i.e., the government). +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761499 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761499 Date: 06/30/2015 +The initial issues to be explored by LTSG would include: +--The impact of a potential severe and prolonged economic contraction on the foreign +policies of China, Japan, and Russia; the resulting shifts in alliances and relationships of +conflict within the region; and the alternative strategies for interacting with Asia that +might be considered by the United States. +--The impact of a potential end of effective central government in Pakistan that leaves a +Punjab state co-existing with a Baluch/Sindh state and an Afghanistan that expands to +control the border regions now part of Pakistan. +--The impact of the acquisition of nuclear weapons by Iran on intra-Asian relations. +In each case, the deliverables would constitute one monograph, the conduct of one +simulation exercise involving non-government participants (and government +observers/participants if desired), and one workshop report. +Action: To approve the general plan of work set forth above, and to initiate +administrative measures to complete the work within 15 months of initial approval. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761499 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1635,C05761500,,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C",116,2009-05-22T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/20_21_22/DOC_0C05761500/C05761500.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05761500,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Jiloty, Lauren C +Friday, May 22, 2009 6:41 AM +Today, Friday 5/22, is +goodies in his honor. +birthday.

After reviewing a +representative sample of the Chinese reports, I'll move to the logic behind their approach, +or where it comes from, and finally, what China's aims are, before offering a preliminary +assessment of their success. To give you a preview, my answer is, clearly, yes, the +Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leadership is trying to influence or shape American +perceptions of, and policies toward, China. Mainly, up to now, these efforts have been in +the direction of reassurance, to allay US concerns about China's economic rise, military +build-up, and increasing political and diplomatic influence. +Let me begin by referring to a Chinese report addressing the need for, and character of, +foreign-directed strategic information capabilities. This article, a kind of roadmap for +foreign-directed information campaigns, appeared in a February 2009 Reference News +(Cankao Xiaoxi) outlet, and it was translated by the American Open Source Center, along +with the other articles that I am going to cite today. Reference News publications come +out of a special branch of the official Chinese news agency Xinhua that is charged with +preparing information and analysis for senior cadres. In theory, the circulation of these +Reference News reports is limited to high-ranking Party members. To be sure, I am not +about to quote a policy document but rather an analytical piece. It seems to be +representative of a certain cast of mind, however, as we will see. The article from +February refers to ""national public relations weapons,"" which it defines: ""By national +public relations, we mean dialogues between nations or between a country and relevant +stake holders against the backdrop of competition over power and interest."" +The need to ""set the agenda for foreign media"" is explicitly stressed. Under a subhead of +the article called ""Media Diplomacy: Breaking the Siege of Public Opinion in the West,"" +the author writes: +It is obvious that the West still has the upper hand while the East remains weak... +Whenever there is an agenda dispute, international public opinion will form a force +that involves the West's besieging the East. +And the article proceeds to explain: +Influencing and setting the foreign media agenda fully embodies a rule of the game +in modern society — that is, whoever can influence the media agenda can influence +the public agenda... The foreign media are not a taxi on the road that can be flagged +when one needs it and shoved away when one does not need it. +In other words, the foreign press has to be cultivated, so that when a crisis strikes, certain +outlets can be counted upon to report favorably on China. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015 +How can this be achieved? ""Foreign media outlets should be given special treatment so +that they will not be forced to unite and form a confrontational alliance."" In other words, +divide them, or keep them divided. The article elaborates on this question, emphasizing +the need to ""provide them with specialized information..."" That is, grant privileges to +encourage positive coverage. +Under the same heading of ""Breaking the Siege of Public Opinion in the West,"" the +article also offers general precepts such as, +When a negative event occurs, [the authorities] should not order the media to shut up. +Public opinion is like a big container. The more information you inject.., the less +space there is for other people's views and ability to return fire. +In other words, flood the zone. +More specifically, under the heading of ""Lobbying,"" the author writes: +We need to influence the influential. In every country, there are famous +commentators and writers, and they are the media and public focus. With the +support of these foreign 'eloquent speakers' and writers, the national public relations +drive can yield twice the results with half the effort. In addition, it is necessary to +fully mobilize overseas elites and [overseas] Chinese who are 'familiar with +China.' ... [Because they] understand the cultural environment abroad, they can be +good assistants in China's public relations. +Where does all this come from? Whence this talk of a ""siege of public opinion,"" ""national +public relations weapons,"" and the like? It flows from a tradition that stresses the role of +information in political and geopolitical interactions — that is, in both domestic and +foreign strategy. I'd go so far as to say that the Chinese tradition puts managing +perceptions at the heart of strategy. This is evident from Sun Zi's injunction to know the +enemy and oneself to the CCP's extensive domestic propaganda and information +management efforts, which have been explored by scholars such as Anne-Marie Brady, +David Shambaugh, Daniel Lynch and Ashley Esarey, among others. Perhaps most +relevant for our purposes, the emphasis on information in China's strategic culture is +evident in Deng Xiaoping's famous injunction that China should ""bide its time and hide +its capabilities,"" which can only be understood as a call to shape the data that reaches +foreigners, in this case to conceal certain data. +In this connection, consider the formulation designed to influence how foreigners +understand China's increased power on the world stage, ""peaceful rise."" The line, +promulgated by Zheng Bijian in 2002, was later changed to ""peaceful development,"" lest +the word ""rise"" provoke anxiety and undermine the intended effect of reassuring +foreigners about China's trajectory. But before this change took hold, Zheng slipped up +in a September 2004 Shanghai TV appearance, as quoted in a recent China Quarterly +article by Daniel Lynch: ""Working in this way [touting the ""peaceful rise""] has its +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015 +advantages — in obtaining greater understanding, sympathy and support, in winning +discourse power on the question of China's development path, in winning discourse +power in the international sphere... It is all extremely advantageous, and there is +absolutely no downside."" This is a pretty stunning shift from insisting that ""peaceful +rise"" is an earnest description of China's present and future to describing the label as +instrumental, a tool for ""winning discourse power."" +Now Zheng is affiliated with the Central Party School of the Chinese Communist Party, +but he has been a senior member of the Party's propaganda apparatus, an extensive +network of offices that exists behind the official bureaucracy, since the 1960s. Zheng is +never identified this way in Chinese Western-language news outlets. Further, the Party +School is often referred to as a Chinese think tank. Is this an institution just like our +Brookings or AEI? No. In another recent article called ""It Is Difficult for Chinese Think +Tanks to Learn from the American Model,"" the author explicitly notes the differences: +""US private think tanks are in ... a thriving state. This is unique in the entire world, ... a +byproduct of ... the US dual-party election system... fundamentally different from the +domestic conditions of China."" Therefore, ""one is afraid that what China think tanks can +learn from US think tanks is more about micro-level management and operational +models."" In other words, because most Chinese think tanks are sponsored by the Party, +while American think tanks are private, all Chinese think tanks can learn from their US +counterparts is internal organizational details. +A different recent piece, ""China Must Have Strong Nongovernmental Diplomatic +Power,"" published in a Chinese People's Daily [Renmin Ribao] outlet that tracks foreign +opinion on China for senior cadres, reviews the fundamental differences between the +United States and China in the think tank realm, and assesses that China is at a +disadvantage: +The diversified nongovernmental forces have provided US diplomacy with multiple +abilities to set up various agendas. In the meantime, China can do nothing but rely on - +its government's single-track diplomacy. This has placed China in a passive position, +in which it is hard to cope with the situation, as if it is shooting mosquitoes with a +cannon. +The article goes on to say that to avoid embarrassments like the crackdown on free Tibet +protestors in the run-up to the Olympics, China must unleash overseas Chinese to counter +Western public expressions of sympathy for Tibet. +What is this talk of ""discourse power in the international sphere"" and ""shooting +mosquitoes"" about? Well, with regard to the United States and the lines about ""biding +time, and hiding capabilities"" and ""peaceful rise,"" we can be sure that there is an effort to +keep America friendly and complacent. But there is also increasing realism in the +Chinese reports about the continuing feasibility of this approach as China passes through +different stages of modernization and development and starts to assume roles associated +with great powers. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015 +From the ""national public relations"" document that I quoted at the outset, here is a +description of a natural evolution for China's foreign-directed information campaigns: +China's public relations drive is not a.. .competition that involves waging a quick +battle, but what Chairman Mao.. .described as a 'long-running battle.' According to +Chairman Mao, a long-running battle involved three stages: defense, confrontation, +and counterattack. From the strategic level of national public relations, the defense +stage comprises passive defense and active defense. We divide the confrontation +period into two parts: confrontation resulting from both sides being well matched in +strength, and [then] dialogue brought about by a balance of power. The counterattack +stage involves attacking and conquering. +Within the PRC today, there seems to be significant discussion of whether China can +continue to bide its time or whether China will be compelled to shift its foreign-directed +information efforts. The roadmap article concludes, ""While we should not demonstrate +toughness characteristic of the confrontation stage and the counterattack stage, we cannot +continue making the kind of unprincipled compromises or maintaining the unrestrained +modesty that marks the passive defense stage."" +In addition to shifting the message directed at the United States, China may accelerate its +wooing of other countries. Perhaps inspired by the idea of ""soft power,"" the Chinese +seem to believe that a competition exists in the realm of ""international public opinion."" +A January 2008 analysis by the scholar Yan Xuetong, published in a journal of the +Chinese Institute of Contemporary International Relations (CICIR), a ""think tank"" with +ties to the Ministry of State Security, which oversees Chinese counterintelligence, argues +that ""if a country has relatively many strategically friendly countries, it is likely to win +support from other countries."" According to Yan, the United States has an advantage in +allies, or ""international mobilization ability,"" but this can be eroded in three to five years +if China properly ""positions"" itself or manipulates impressions of China's ""identity"": +We may think of repositioning China's international identity and expanding the +homogeneity between China and other countries in identity. Economically, China +may position itself as a burgeoning modern country, being between a developed and +underdeveloped country. Politically, China may position itself as a democratizing +country, ... between a democratic country and ... [an autocracy]. Culturally, China +may position itself as a Confucian country, between a religious and a nonreligious +country... +I have been talking about Chinese intentions up to now. To conclude, I would like to turn +to an assessment of effects. But effects are difficult to measure, in part because any +judgment requires addressing the counterfactual question, Would we have acted as we +have in the absence of Chinese foreign-directed information campaigns? As a +preliminary answer, let me adduce the article ""Have China Scholars All Been Bought,"" +by the Hong Kong-based professor Carsten Holz. Holz begins, ""Academics who study +China, which includes the author, habitually please the Chinese Communist Party, +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761506 Date: 06/30/2015 +sometimes consciously, and often unconsciously."" Consider, too, the words of one of the +most senior American scholars of China, Orville Schell: +I try to say, 'Okay, here is what I think, what I understand, what I think I see, have +learned and read.' Then, I try and think through what the Chinese government's +reaction will be... And then I try to be as truthful as I can in a way that is respectful +and unprovocative but that is not pandering. China has a tremendously highly +evolved capacity to create panderers both among its own people and foreigners who +become involved with them. +Where is all of this going if China succeeds in reassuring the United States while +increasing its ""international mobilization ability""? That's a subject for a different hearing, +I think.

Two articles on the legal inquries into Berlusconi below: +http://www.independent.co.uk/news/worldieurope/berlusconi-cut-deal-with-mafia-court-told-1834647.html +Berlusconi 'cut deal with Mafia', court told Former hitman claims Italian PM gave 'benefits' to the Mob for political +support By Michael Day in Milan Saturday, 5 December 2009 The Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi, made a deal +with the Sicilian Mafia in the early 1990s that put the country ""in the hands"" of the Mob, a court in Turin was told +yesterday. +Gaspare Spatuzza, a jailed Mafia hitman turned witness, told a packed and heavily guarded bunker courtroom that his +Cosa Nostra Godfather boss had cut a deal with Mr Berlusconi in 1993 that provided unspecified ""benefits"" to the Mafia +in exchange for political support. The media tycoon entered politics a few months later and won his first term as Prime +Minister in 1994. +Spatuzza said his boss, Giuseppe Graviano, who was jailed over Mafia bomb attacks in Rome, Milan and Florence, had +told him that the Mob had ""got everything"" with the help of Mr Berlusconi, adding that Graviano called Mr Berlusconi +""the man from Channel 5"", in reference to his TV network. +The damaging claims came at the appeal hearing of Marcello Dell'Utri, a key Berlusconi associate and senator, who is +challenging his nine-year jail sentence for links with the Mafia. +Spatuzza, in prison for several murders, testified: ""Graviano told me the name of Berlusconi and said that thanks to him +and the man from our home town [an apparent reference to Dell' Utri] we have the country in our hands."" +Mr Berlusconi has denounced the claims of Spatuzza as ""vile"", and ""unfounded and defamatory"", denying ever having +links with the Mafia. The Prime Minister's spokesman said the testimony yesterday was the Mafia's ""completely logical"" +revenge against the Prime Minister for his ""determined"" fight against organised crime. +Dell'Utri told the court that neither he nor Mr Berlusconi had Mafia connections. ""It's in the interest of the Mafia to +force the collapse of the Berlusconi government because this government has done the most in the fight against +organised crime,"" he said. Mr Berlusconi, who recently lost his legal immunity to prosecution, was said to have been +furious this week, after the parliamentary Speaker, Gianfranco Fini, the man who is supposed to be his closest ally, had +said that the Spatuzza evidence was ""an atomic bomb"". +Mr Fini was recorded by an unobserved microphone while talking privately at an official dinner. Rumours of the +conservative Prime Minister's links with the Mob have persisted since investigators learnt that a Cosa Nostra hitman, +Vittorio Mangano, worked as Mr Berlusconi's ""stable-master"" at the media mogul's villa in Arcore outside Milan in the +1970s. Much speculation has also centred on the origins of Mr Berlusconi's vast wealth. +Last week, the Prime Minister's broadcast group, Mediaset, and his holding company, Fininvest, announced it intended +to sue the left-wing newspaper La Repubblica over an article that said Mediaset was ""20 per cent owned by the Mafia"". +La Stampa newspaper noted that the ""dread combination of Mafia allegations and separation from his wife are now his +principal torments"". Mr Berlusconi's estranged wife, Veronica Lario, is said to be seeking a £3m-a-month divorce +settlement, and a messy courtroom battle looms. Mr Berlusconi also faces a retrial on the charge that he bribed the +British lawyer David Mills to lie in court. +TIME +Friday, Dec. 04, 2009 +After a Court Ruling, Berlusconi's Legal Woes Resume By Jeff Israely The world has spent the past six months wondering +how — and with whom — Silvio Berlusconi spends his Saturday nights. But the combative, scandal-plagued Prime +Minister of Italy would prefer to talk about his mornings instead. ""Do you know how I've been forced to spend my +Saturday mornings since I entered politics?"" Berlusconi once declared to business leaders in Rome. ""With my lawyers."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761507 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761507 Date: 06/30/2015 +Italy's self-proclaimed Defendant in Chief makes a point of lamenting all those weekends spoiled by stacks of court +dossiers as further proof that he is the victim of politically motivated magistrates, whom he called during the same +speech ""the spreading cancer of our democracy."" (See Berlusconi's worst gaffes.) + +To combat such perceived persecution, Berlusconi has tested the bounds of decorous democratic conduct, including his +allies' pushing a bill through Parliament last year that gave him and other top Italian officeholders immunity from +prosecution. But since the Constitutional Court overturned that law in October, several criminal investigations into +Berlusconi's business dealings have been reopened, with other new charges rumored to be looming. +The potentially most damaging trial is set to resume Friday, Dec. 4, in Milan, with the 73-year-old billionaire being +accused of paying British attorney David Mills $600,000 in 1997 to withhold incriminating evidence about his +broadcasting empire Mediaset. Mills is appealing a conviction in the same case; both men have denied any wrongdoing. +So, alas, Berlusconi is back to spending his downtime with a well-paid cadre of more than a dozen avvocati, who have +been successful so far in keeping their biggest client clear of criminal convictions. Not that the lawyers have ever really +gone away. Since the media baron first ran for office 15 years ago, his legal advisers have doubled as political consiglieri, +key members of Parliament and even important Cabinet Ministers. Indeed, while some critics have spoken of +Berlusconi's reign as a kind of sultanate of showgirls or government by gaffe, others have described it as a republic of +attorneys. (See what Berlusconi's Obama ""jokes"" say about Italy.) + +His longtime lawyer Cesare Previti served as Italian Defense Minister during Berlusconi's first term in 1994 before being +convicted of corruption himself (and losing twice on appeal). During Berlusconi's second term (2001-06), Gaetano +Pecorella, a former leftist, served as president of Parliament's Justice Commission, where he was instrumental in +shepherding through new laws that helped shield Berlusconi from investigating magistrates. +Giovanni Sartori, a Columbia University professor of constitutional law, says the role Berlusconi's personal lawyers have +played in his legislative agenda is yet another gargantuan conflict of interest to add to those related to his ownership of +Italy's main private television stations. But by now, Sartori says, Berlusconi's lawyers have perfected the art of exploiting +Italy's painfully slow justice system: many cases conclude without a final verdict because the statute of limitations has +been reached. ""It is more a mania than a necessity,"" Sartori says of Berlusconi's near obsession in battling magistrates. +""He feels persecuted, and fighting the judges is what makes him happy."" +Berlusconi's current point man is Nicolo Ghedini, a somber-faced, lanky 49-year-old criminal-defense attorney from the +northern city of Padua, who has served in both the Italian Senate and the lower house of Parliament. Ghedini has +continued to mount a grinding defense in the criminal cases, arguing in the Mills case that Berlusconi cannot be present +in the Milan courtroom for the next several months because of time conflicts with his duties as Prime Minister. Ghedini +has also spearheaded an increasingly aggressive legal strategy that has included several libel suits against opposition +newspapers. He declared in September that if necessary, Berlusconi would testify in a suit against a journalist who +referred to rumors that the Prime Minister is impotent. Last week, Berlusconi vowed to launch additional suits against +newspapers that printed unsubstantiated reports that a close adviser of his was involved in a 1993 bombing campaign ' +by the Sicilian Mafia. (Read ""An Offended Berlusconi Goes on the Offensive."") + +Despite these many legal headaches, Berlusconi is embroiled in one other particularly thorny case that even he can't +blame on overzealous magistrates. Veronica Lario, Berlusconi's wife of more than 20 years, filed for divorce earlier this +year, which sparked an avalanche of accusations that he frequented a prostitute from Bari and an underage model from +Naples. The Milan daily Corriere della Sera reported last week that Lario has demanded 3.5 million euros ($5.2 million) in +monthly payments, and Berlusconi countered with an offer of 300,000 euros ($450,000). No matter how this and the +other cases shake out, there is little hope that Berlusconi can avoid a mountain of lawyers' fees and some grim +Saturdays that he'd rather devote to other business and pleasures. +Find this article at: +http://www.time.com/time/world/article/0,8599,1945439,00.html +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761507 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1641,C05761508,FINAL PAKISTAN CAMPAIGN TQ,"Mills, Cheryl D","Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-06-02T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/23_24_25_26/DOC_0C05761508/C05761508.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,FW: FINAL Pakistan Texting Campaign TQ,"Mills, Cheryl D","Mills, Cheryl D ","Pierce, Thomas 3N","Tuesday, June 02, 2009 1:41 PM",F-2014-20439,C05761508,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE +Office of the Spokesman +For Immediate Release June 2, 2009 +2009/ +Question Taken at June 1, 2009 Daily Press Briefing +Current results of Texting Campaign for Humanitarian Aid to Pakistan +Q.

The Prime Minister's spokesman said the testimony +yesterday was the Mafia's ""completely logical"" revenge against the Prime Minister for his +""determined"" fight against organised crime. +2 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761515 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761515 Date: 06/30/2015 +Dell'Utri told the court that neither he nor Mr Berlusconi had Mafia connections. ""It's in the +interest of the Mafia to force the collapse of the Berlusconi government because this government +has done the most in the fight against organised crime,"" he said. Mr Berlusconi, who recently lost +his legal immunity to prosecution, was said to have been furious this week, after the +parliamentary Speaker, Gianfranco Fini, the man who is supposed to be his closest ally, had said +that the Spatuzza evidence was ""an atomic bomb"". +Mr Fini was recorded by an unobserved microphone while talking privately at an official dinner. +Rumours of the conservative Prime Minister's links with the Mob have persisted since +investigators learnt that a Cosa Nostra hitman, Vittorio Mangano, worked as Mr Berlusconi's +""stable-master"" at the media mogul's villa in Arcore outside Milan in the 1970s. Much +speculation has also centred on the origins of Mr Berlusconi's vast wealth. +Last week, the Prime Minister's broadcast group, Mediaset, and his holding company, Fininvest, +announced it intended to sue the left-wing newspaper La Repubblica over an article that said +Mediaset was ""20 per cent owned by the Mafia"". +La Stampa newspaper noted that the ""dread combination of Mafia allegations and separation +from his wife are now his principal torments"". Mr Berlusconi's estranged wife, Veronica Lario, is +said to be seeking a £3m-a-month divorce settlement, and a messy courtroom battle looms. Mr +Berlusconi also faces a retrial on the charge that he bribed the British lawyer David Mills to lie in +court. +TIME +Friday, Dec. 04, 2009 +After a Court Ruling, Berlusconi's Legal +Woes Resume +By Jeff Israely +The world has spent the past six months wondering how — and with whom — Silvio Berlusconi +spends his Saturday nights. But the combative, scandal-plagued Prime Minister of Italy would +prefer to talk about his mornings instead. ""Do you know how I've been forced to spend my +Saturday mornings since I entered politics?"" Berlusconi once declared to business leaders in +Rome. ""With my lawyers."" +Italy's self-proclaimed Defendant in Chief makes a point of lamenting all those weekends spoiled +by stacks of court dossiers as further proof that he is the victim of politically motivated +magistrates, whom he called during the same speech ""the spreading cancer of our democracy."" +(See Berlusconi's worst gaffes.) +3 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761515 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761515 Date: 06/30/2015 +To combat such perceived persecution, Berlusconi has tested the bounds of decorous democratic +conduct, including his allies' pushing a bill through Parliament last year that gave him and other +top Italian officeholders immunity from prosecution. But since the Constitutional Court +overturned that law in October, several criminal investigations into Berlusconi's business +dealings have been reopened, with other new charges rumored to be looming. +The potentially most damaging trial is set to resume Friday, Dec. 4, in Milan, with the 73-year- +old billionaire being accused of paying British attorney David Mills $600,000 in 1997 to +withhold incriminating evidence about his broadcasting empire Mediaset. Mills is appealing a +conviction in the same case; both men have denied any wrongdoing. +So, alas, Berlusconi is back to spending his downtime with a well-paid cadre of more than a +dozen avvocati, who have been successful so far in keeping their biggest client clear of criminal +convictions. Not that the lawyers have ever really gone away. Since the media baron first ran for +office 15 years ago, his legal advisers have doubled as political consiglieri, key members of +Parliament and even important Cabinet Ministers. Indeed, while some critics have spoken of +Berlusconi's reign as a kind of sultanate of showgirls or government by gaffe, others have +described it as a republic of attorneys. (See what Berlusconi's Obama ""jokes"" say about Italy.) +His longtime lawyer Cesare Previti served as Italian Defense Minister during Berlusconi's first +term in 1994 before being convicted of corruption himself (and losing twice on appeal). During +Berlusconi's second term (2001-06), Gaetano Pecorella, a former leftist, served as president of +Parliament's Justice Commission, where he was instrumental in shepherding through new laws +that helped shield Berlusconi from investigating magistrates. +Giovanni Sartori, a Columbia University professor of constitutional law, says the role +Berlusconi's personal lawyers have played in his legislative agenda is yet another gargantuan +conflict of interest to add to those related to his ownership of Italy's main private television +stations. But by now, Sartori says, Berlusconi's lawyers have perfected the art of exploiting +Italy's painfully slow justice system: many cases conclude without a final verdict because the +statute of limitations has been reached. ""It is more a mania than a necessity,"" Sartori says of +Berlusconi's near obsession in battling magistrates. ""He feels persecuted, and fighting the judges +is what makes him happy."" +Berlusconi's current point man is Nicolo Ghedini, a somber-faced, lanky 49-year-old criminal- +defense attorney from the northern city of Padua, who has served in both the Italian Senate and +the lower house of Parliament. Ghedini has continued to mount a grinding defense in the +criminal cases, arguing in the Mills case that Berlusconi cannot be present in the Milan +courtroom for the next several months because of time conflicts with his duties as Prime +Minister. Ghedini has also spearheaded an increasingly aggressive legal strategy that has +included several libel suits against opposition newspapers. He declared in September that if +necessary, Berlusconi would testify in a suit against a journalist who referred to rumors that the +Prime Minister is impotent. Last week, Berlusconi vowed to launch additional suits against +newspapers that printed unsubstantiated reports that a close adviser of his was involved in a 1993 +bombing campaign by the Sicilian Mafia.

Veronica Lario, Berlusconi's wife of • +more than 20 years, filed for divorce earlier this year, which sparked an avalanche of accusations +that he frequented a prostitute from Bari and an underage model from Naples. The Milan daily +Corriere della Sera reported last week that Lario has demanded 3.5 million euros ($5.2 million) +in monthly payments, and Berlusconi countered with an offer of 300,000 euros ($450,000). No +matter how this and the other cases shake out, there is little hope that Berlusconi can avoid a +mountain of lawyers' fees and some grim Saturdays that he'd rather devote to other business and +pleasures. +• Find this article at: +• http://www.time.comitime/world/article/0,8599,1945439,00.html +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761515 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1644,C05761516,UNHRC,"Sullivan, Jacob J",MillsCD@state.gov,32,2009-03-31T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/17_18_19/DOC_0C05761516/C05761516.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Fw: UNHRC,"Sullivan, Jacob J","Mills, Cheryl D ","H; Abedin, Huma","Tuesday, March 31, 2009 4:25 AM",F-2014-20439,C05761516,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Jake: +Can you getline travelling to get you high side materials for hrc. +We also need a quote for inclusion from her. +Cdm","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761516 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B5 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Tuesday, March 31, 2009 4:25 AM +To: Sullivan, Jacob J +Cc: H; Abedin, Huma +Subject: Fw: UNHRC +Jake: +Can you getline travelling to get you high side materials for hrc. +We also need a quote for inclusion from her. +Cdm +From: Simon, Jennifer 3 +To: Barks-Ruggles, Erica 3; Mills, Cheryl D +Cc: Anderson, Brooke D (USUN) +Sent: Mon Mar 30 21:06:24 2009 +Subject: RE: UNHRC +Cheryl, +Tonight I will also send you on the high side the package which has been cleared by DRL, 10, H, L, S/P and D front +offices.

Critics +say that system costs too much, takes too long to provide aid and depresses local prices when U.S. products +arrive. +The bill, by panel ranking Republican Richard G. Lugar of Indiana, also would create a global food ""czar"" +position at the White House and authorize $7.75 billion for agriculture research and exchange programs through +fiscal 2014. +""We can bring America's dedication to science, innovation, technology and education together to lead an effort +devoted to overcoming the obstacles to food security,"" Lugar said upon introducing the bill last month. +To keep up with rising population and an expanding middle class in countries such as China and India, farmers +will have to double their food output by 2050, Lugar said. At the same time, he said, the share of U.S. +development spending devoted to agriculture dropped from 25 percent in 1980 to 1 percent in 2003. +Anti-hunger activists support Lugar's effort to allow local purchase of food, but past efforts have run into farm- +state interests that support requirements to buy U.S. crops.

That +language was not included in this bill, in part because OPIC already examines its projects' greenhouse gas +impact and also because of expectations that the Obama administration's plans for climate change legislation +would impose a similar requirement. +Coburn also argued that the program failed to target the world's poorest countries, lacked accountability and +gave too much in loans to large corporations. +The reauthorization would bar OPIC assistance to companies that have loans to, or sizable investments in, the +energy sector of any state that sponsors terrorism.

Family members often must uproot their lives, +endure hardship conditions, and put their own careers on hold. Like all families, our Foreign Service families come in +different configurations; all are part of the common fabric of our Post communities abroad. +Historically, domestic partners of Foreign Service members have not been provided the same training, benefits, allowances, +and protections that other family members receive. These inequities are unfair and must end. Providing training, medical +care and other benefits to domestic partners promote the cohesiveness, safety and effectiveness of our Posts abroad. It will +also help the Department attract and retain personnel in a competitive environment where domestic partner benefits and +allowances are increasingly the norm for world-class employers. At bottom, the Department will provide these benefits for +both opposite-sex and same-sex domestic partners because it is the right thing to do. +The Department will be exercising its inherent authority to change its regulations in the Foreign Affairs Manual and +Department of State Standardized Regulations to allow the domestic partners of Department Foreign Service personnel to +qualify as family members for a variety of benefits and allowances. Where appropriate, this extension of benefits and +allowances will apply to the children of domestic partners as well. To qualify for these benefits and allowances, an employee +must file an affidavit identifying his or her domestic partner and certifying to certain eligibility requirements that will be set +forth in the FAM. +The Department of State intends to provide the following additional benefits and allowances for declared domestic partners of +eligible employees serving overseas: +Diplomatic passports, +Inclusion on employee travel orders to and from posts abroad, +Shipment of household effects, +Inclusion in family size calculations for the purpose of making housing allocations, +Family member preference for employment at posts abroad, +Use of medical facilities at posts abroad, +Medical evacuation from posts abroad, +Emergency travel for the partners to visit gravely ill or injured employees, +Inclusion as family members for emergency evacuation from posts abroad, +Subsistence payments related to emergency evacuation from posts abroad, +Inclusion in calculations of payments of overseas differentials and allowances (e.g., payment for quarters, cost of +living, and other allowances), +Representation expenses, and +Training at the Foreign Service Institute. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761559 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761559 Date: 06/30/2015 +The Department also will work with our inter-agency partners and host country governments to provide domestic partners +with diplomatic visas, appropriate diplomatic and consular privileges and immunities, and authorization to work in the local +economy abroad. +We look forward to implementing these changes. +Richard Socarides +Brady Klein Weissman LLP +501 Fifth Avenue, 19th Floor, New York, NY 10017 +w: 212.949.5800 m: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761559 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1663,C05761561,CALLS,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-05-22T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/20_21_22/DOC_0C05761561/C05761561.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05761561,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Abedin, Huma +Friday, May 22, 2009 4:48 PM +Calls +- call cheryl +- Durbin called u back. +Is available for next few hours on +- don't return barak call.

What we heard is accurate. More: Labour will suffer a large defeat in the European +elections on June 4. (New poll in Guardian shows widespread disaffection with all parties as a result of the Commons +expenses scandal; 27 percent voting for fringe parties.) Gordon will attempt to overwhelm news coverage of the loss +with a cabinet reshuffle, as early as the next day, June 5. The plot (sounds like the Tudors): David is the target, from +multiple angles and motives, personal ambition mixed with anti-Blairism. Peter has always wanted to be Foreign +Secretary, a job held by his grandfather, Herbert Morrison. (Morrison was also deputy PM, why doesn't Peter want +that?) New Labour people regard Peter as more ambitious than New Labour at this point. He supported Gordon's utterly +misbegotten and wildly unpopular proposal to raise the top tax rate to 50 percent. The fallout is less resentment of the +affluent to paying more or grudging understanding of need for new revenues as it is a sense that Labour under Gordon is +abandoning the project for social aspiration and opportunity that is at the heart of the New Labour message. Ed Balls, +one of Gordon's closest longtime advisers, is also determined to topple David. Balls is a contemporary of David's, wants +to be leader of the party himself, and continues the Gordon v. Tony bitter rivalry into the future. Balls is currently +Minister for Children and Schools and was linked to Damian McBride (Gordon's hatchetman, who has trashed Blairites, +got caught out on his blogging scheme to smear Cameron). If Gordon names Peter to David's job, Balls would take +Peter's and become Business Secretary. David would be pushed into Home Secretary. Once Balls takes Peter's job, Balls +will likely reverse Peter's privatization proposal for the Royal Mail to win support from party's left-wing base, beginning +of his campaign against David for post-Gordon leadership struggle. Tony sees the situation as terminal. Hope to speak wi +th him soon. He is trying to become President of Europe if and when Lisbon treaty passes.

Despite promising to end cronyism in Washington, Barack Obama is about to appoint one of his home town +friends and financial backers to the plum posting of US ambassador to London. +The next ambassador extraordinary and plenipotentiary will be Louis Susman, a lawyer and financier with little +experience of foreign affairs. +The appointment will end months of speculation. Susman's name first surfaced in a diary column in the Washington Post +in February, but Caroline Kennedy was also mentioned, as was Oprah Winfrey, another of Obama's Chicago supporters. +There was no official confirmation of Susman's nomination today, but the Guardian has learned that the paperwork has +been completed. Buckingham Palace approved the appointment this month and Obama will announce it shortly. +London has become a retirement posting for many backers of US presidents, offering a comfortable home in one of the +best mansions in the city, Winfield House in Regent's Park. +Recent ambassadors have been political appointees more interested in country walks than Iraq or nuclear non- +proliferation. Most of the work is left to the number twos at the embassy, career diplomats. +Susman, 71, a vice-president of Citigroup until he retired in February, has long been a backer of the Democrats, +nicknamed the Vacuum Cleaner by the Chicago Tribune for his ability to hoover up campaign funding. ""I don't think +anyone enjoys raising money, but for some reason I seem to have a knack,"" he told the paper. Susman, who lives in an +expensive neighbourhood of Chicago overlooking Lake Michigan, raised at least $500,000 (?320,000) for Obama's +campaign and a further $300,000 for his inauguration. +He is so much a part of Obama's inner circle that he was invited to an exclusive party on the Sunday before the +inauguration. Other guests included Rahm Emanuel, Obama's chief of staff, who typifies the sharp-suited, foul-mouthed +approach of those brought up on Chicago politics. +London is not the only posting being used to reward political supporters. +Other positions in Europe are expected to be filled on the basis of patronage. Dan Rooney, owner of the Pittsburgh +Steelers football team, who campaigned for Obama, is to be the ambassador to Dublin. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761571 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761571 Date: 06/30/2015 +The appointments will disappoint former US career diplomats who have been pressing Obama to end the practice, +especially since he promised to offer more of the top jobs to diplomats. In the Washington Post in December, a retired +diplomat with 30 years' service, Morton Abramowitz, called on Obama to ""declare that he will not appoint ambassadors +who have secured their posts through financial contributions and who have little background to merit any such +appointment"". +Ronald Neumann, a former career diplomat and ambassador and president of the Washington-based American +Academy of Diplomacy, wrote to Obama last year, saying ambassadors should have had experience of the country they +are being appointed to. Neumann said today: ""You would think with our most important ally we might occasionally send +someone with some experience."" +• Historically, about 25% to 30% of the diplomatic posts have been political appointees. It is too early to say, but Obama's +ratio could yet be lower. +The president's choice of Susman could be viewed as a snub to the UK. The relationship between the Obama +administration and the UK government got off to a bad start. At least one member of the administration was irritated +over the leaking during the campaign of a memo from the British ambassador, Sir Nigel Sheinwald, assessing Obama as +""aloof"". But the minor rows over the memo, the removal of the Churchill bust from the Oval office, the DVD present to +Gordon Brown and other perceived slights have been presentational problems rather than a sign of ruptured relations. +Obama's predecessor, George W Bush, sent two of his financier backers to the +UK: William Farish, a Texas multimillionaire, and Robert Tuttle, a California car dealer. The lack of an experienced +diplomat in London was felt most in the runup to the war in Iraq in 2003, with Farish invisible when a figure was needed +to put the US case on camera and in print. +Copyright Guardian Newspapers Limited 2009 +If you have any questions about this email, please contact the guardian.co.uk user help desk: userhelp@guardian.co.uk. +Please consider the environment before printing this email. +Visit guardian.co.uk - the UK's most popular newspaper website http://guardian.co.uk http://observer.co.uk +To save up to 33% when you subscribe to the Guardian and the Observer visit http://www.guardian.co.uk/subscriber +This e-mail and all attachments are confidential and may also be privileged.

For the speech, +we will have to shorten it and add more examples, as well as put it more in your distinctive voice. +You will see lots of places where I have indicated in footnote that we need examples from what you +have done over the past four months. We also need to flesh out the smart power toolbox section — +this is a chance to roll out a lot of the innovative techniques/ideas that Alec Ross, Jared Cohen and I +have been working on with others in the building. I have asked Alec and Jared to start working on +that section already. +There are enough big ideas here to power several speeches, and perhaps too many for one +speech. You could, for instance, make this speech primarily about power and purpose — discussing +the world we are in, the strategy for expanding and using our power, and the final section on +purpose, and then give a second speech that would focus on a new opportunity for American +leadership using all the tools of smart power (with again a particular emphasis on how we can +innovate with mobile information technology). In addition, however you decide you want to deliver +the ideas contained here, I propose that this big speech, or two big general speeches, then drive a +series of major policy addresses over the next six months on 1) development, 2) human rights and +democracy (you could give that one at the Community of Democracies meeting in Lisbon and July +and outline your distinctive approach to using democracy as tool to improve people's lives through +more accountable government), 3) global governance/making multilateralism work (you could give +that one at the UN), and then several on more specific policies such as a strategy for failing and +failed states, climate change/energy security, creating global economic opportunity, a global +educational initiative, etc. This would all build up to an idea that PJ has proposed of giving a ""State +of the World Address"" in December before the President's State of the Union address in January. +You will see here that I describe the overall grand strategy (our broad plan for employing the +various instruments of national power to advance the U.S. national interest and other national goals) +as partnership, which I then qualify in terms of pragmatic and principled partnership. I do that +because lots of conversations have convinced me that the strategy itself has to be summed up in one +or two words w/o adjectives — e.g. containment, engagement, power-balancing, isolationism, liberal +internationalism. That's the difference b/w a strategy and a slogan. The principled and pragmatic +parts are critical, but they should come in the elaboration of the strategy if this is too have legs. +I have road-tested this in roughly 8-10 different presentations, largely in house to our new +ambassadors and lots of different classes of FSOs and folks from the rest of government over at the +Foreign Service Institute, but also at closed presentations at think tanks. The response has been very +positive in terms of the way this frame brings a lot of different things together. Various other ideas +here have also been previewed in your speeches and testimony already. +I am leaving for Asia on Wednesday for policy planning tglks w/ my Chinese counterpart, +for a trilat policy planning talk w/ my Japanese and Korean counterparts (these are all established +before me), and then w/ my G-8 counterparts and also the other 6 countries invited to L'Aquila. I +will have lots of time on planes to revise and incorporate comments from you and the rest of the +team, as well as working w/ Lissa. We will then still have a full week when I get back before the +earliest day you might give this speech. I have loved working on this; if we get it right you will stand +w/ Marshall and Kissinger as a Secretary of State who took American foreign policy in a new and +bold direction in response to changing historical circumstance. +0 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761671 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1694,C05761674,A NEW COMPACT,,,,,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/20_21_22/DOC_0C05761674/C05761674.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05761674,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B5 +A NEW COMPACT +1 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761674 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1695,C05761680,S.M.

As mainstream +Democratic politicians such as Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) move to support same-sex +marriage, gay rights advocates say that the barrier-breaking president looks increasingly +odd for opposing what they see as full equality. +""Obama is out of step with his party, which is overwhelmingly in favor of marriage at this +stage,"" said David Mixner, a veteran gay rights activist who is among the organizers of a +march on Washington for same-sex marriage scheduled for this fall. ""He's out of step with +the next generation."" +Gay rights issues have been moving at breakneck speed, none faster than same-sex +marriage. Most public opinion polls now show more than 40 percent of Americans support +same-sex marriage, seen as a fringe issue just a few years earlier. Already, five New +England states and Iowa have same-sex marriage laws on the books. +""Politicians are finding out that their voters are moving faster than they anticipated,"" said +Democratic pollster Celinda Lake, who called Obama's place behind that curve +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. V-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761682 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761682 Date: 06/30/2015 +""surprising, because he is the next-generational candidate."" +She noted that Obama could be concerned about alienating older voters in the Midwest +who would be turned off if he came out in support of same-sex marriage. +The Politico 44 Story Widget Requires Adobe Flash Player. +The White House has been reluctant to spend its political capital pushing Obama's +highest-profile pro-gay positions believing, White House allies say, that it could detract +from priorities like health care. And it may be even less likely to do next year, with +midterms approaching. +But officials have told restive gays and lesbians to give them until the end of this month to +show movement on a number of lower-profile issues they support, including restrictions on +visas for people with HIV. The Pentagon also has toned down public opposition to +reversing the gay ban, and the new secretary of the Army's job will be, in part, to smooth +the way for that move. +""The president remains fully committed to advancing LGBT rights. His positions on all of +these issues are well-established and well-known. His staff continues to work with +Congress on a variety of LGBT issues,"" said Jim Messina, the deputy White House chief +of staff who is the point man on gay and lesbian issues, citing White House efforts to +move hate crimes legislation through the Senate. ""While we recognize that some in the +community are anxious, the president's commitment has not wavered."" +Meanwhile, however, marriage equality has emerged as the movement's central issue, a +question that's seen as a simple matter of justice and fairness by a growing number of +Democrats. +""There's going to come a point where's he going have to deal with it,"" former Democratic +National Committee Chairman Howard Dean, who now supports same-sex marriage, said +of Obama. ""I'm in favor of giving him a little more time. He's got an awful lot on his plate."" +""But he is a politician like everybody else, and he's going to respond to pressure. And I +don't blame the LGBT community for trying to push,"" Dean said. +Rep. Jared Polis (D-Colo.), who is openly gay and was a major Democratic donor before +being elected last year, said he was ""very hopeful [Obama's] position will evolve."" +But Polls warned, ""If his position doesn't evolve, it could turn off some strong supporters."" +Gay leaders in Washington, though, have been loath to publicly criticize the president. +They say they still view Obama as an ally and think private talks are more promising than +public pressure. +Still, it was especially frustrating for some left-leaning gay figures to see the otherwise +dreaded former Vice President Dick Cheney publicly express his support this week for +letting states allow gay marriage -- a position that puts him to theleft of Obama. +21 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761682 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761682 Date: 06/30/2015 +""I think that freedom means freedom for everyone,"" Cheney said in an appearance +Monday at the National Press Club. +Obama also has been criticized for a joke at the expense of same-sex marriage. After the +White House Correspondents Association dinner, columnist Dan Savage fumed that +Obama's only reference since being sworn in to the high-profile drive toward same-sex +marriage in Iowa had been a joke about going to the state with longtime friend and adviser +David Axelrod to ""make it official."" +""The best he can do — all he's willing to do — is toss off an Adam Sandler-level joke,"" +Savage wrote. +Another Obama ally, writer Andrew Sullivan, recently referred to Obama's stance on gays +as ""the fierce urgency of whenever."" +And on the front line, in the states, gay rights advocates are also growing increasingly +impatient with Washington. +""His position has been causing some problems for those of us working in the states, those +who are against it are using him for cover,"" said Alan Van CapeIle, the executive director +of New York's Empire State Pride Agenda, who called on Obama to fulfill another +neglected campaign promise and back the full repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act, +which blocks the federal government from extending benefits to married same-sex +couples. +Gay activists cringed recently when reminded by Donald Trump, of all people, that Miss +California Carrie Prejean shared the same position on gay marriage as the progressive +president. +""I'm still optimistic that the president is going to be good on his word,"" said Aubrey Sarvis, +the executive director of the Servicemembers Legal Defense Networks, which opposes +the military ban. +""No one believes that [anti-gay federal policies] will be miraculously changed overnight,"" +said Human Rights Campaign president Joe Solmonese, who added nevertheless that his +group is ""frustrated at the pace of progress."" +Behind the scenes, patience is wearing thin. +""People are far angrier than they're saying publicly, because they don't want to jeopardize +[White House] relationships with the groups,"" said John Aravosis, an openly gay blogger +who speaks to gay leaders. ""But everyone is feeling like we've entered a danger zone +where the administration is backing away from us fast, and I can tell you that the +professional gay crowd in Washington, D.C., to a person, feels a sense of impending +betrayal."" +The most heated battle is in California, where some of the same voters who +overwhelmingly elected Obama also passed a referendum barring same-sex marriage. +Proposition 8 has since energized the state's gay rights movement. +22 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761682 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761682 Date: 06/30/2015 +The Army linguist, Dan Choi, spoke at a rally across the street from the Beverly Hills Hilton +while Obama spoke inside at a high-dollar fundraiser late last month.

The other issue that surfaced at the time was a colossal error in judgment by one of the +contractors' employees in hiring an adolescent boy dancer for some sort of event that, at least to most folks, +looked very inappropriate. The Post is now looking at the dancing boy, which was not included in the April 17, +article, and we expect will soon publish a story on it. +The Post inquiry at this point focuses only on confirming whether or not there's an OIG investigation. We are, +of course, referring the Post to the OIG on such a question. However, the premise for the question raises the +issue again in some eye-popping rhetoric which could feature in the follow-up story, so I wanted to make sure +everyone had a heads-up. +We have already relieved the folks involved with both incidents and I am meeting with the firm's CEO today to +hear his report on his trip to Afghanistan and Iraq to address these, as well as other, issues on which we have +demanded corrective actions. +I'm attaching the original note to Deputy Secretary Lew at the time of the original inquiry which lays out both +issues, a copy of the memo the INL section at Embassy Kabul provided to Post Management on the most +recent Post inquiry, as well as the Post inquiry itself for context. +David. +Incoming from Post: +""According to my reporting, the week of April 13th, the DynCorp regional commander from Konduz, Flint Chambers, +allowed his men to hire a 15-year-old boy dancer to do tribal dances at a DynCorp party on the training site. +Some 15 or so DynCorp employees in attendance pulled out a single chair and had the boy do mock lap dances.

The +organizers of the festival must be convinced to reverse themselves. This, because of the inherent wrongness of it and +that if it succeeds, it will encourage and motivate those who fomented the boycott to other, probably even worse, +action. For example, there is in effect or pending (I am not certain which) a UK-Israeli treaty on film production; we +should cut off at the pass any attempts to derail it. +Our Embassy in London does not yet have our Ambassador.

Bruce +May 20, 2009 +Edinburgh film festival bows to pressure from Ken Loach over Israeli boycott +Mike Wade +A row threatened to engulf the Edinburgh International Film Festival yesterday after it bowed to pressure from the +director Ken Loach and returned a £300 grant it had received from the Israeli Embassy. +Sir Jeremy Isaacs, the former chief executive of Channel Four, accused the festival's organisers of making ""an appalling +decision"" and called on them to rescind it. Describing Loach's intervention as an act of censorship, he said: ""They must +not allow someone who has no real position, no rock to stand on, to interfere with their programming."" +6 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761710 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761710 Date: 06/30/2015 +The grant was intended to enable Tali Shalom Ezer, a graduate of Tel Aviv University, to travel to Scotland for a +screening of her film, Surrogate. +After days of protest against the award from pro-Palestinian organisations, Loach, an outspoken opponent of Israel's +policies in Lebanon and Gaza, urged filmgoers on Monday to boycott Edinburgh. +""The massacres and state terrorism in Gaza make this money unacceptable,"" he said. ""With regret, I must urge all who +might consider visiting the festival to show their support for the Palestinian nation and stay away."" +The intervention brought an immediate capitulation from the organisers. In a statement the festival said it accepted that +Loach spoke ""on behalf of the film community, therefore we will be returning the funding issued by the Israeli Embassy"". +Sir Jeremy said that he was disgusted both by Loach's actions and by the capitulation of the festival organisers. ""Ken +Loach has always been critical of censorship of his own work, albeit it was many years in the past. The idea that he +should lend himself to the denial of a film-maker's right to show her work is absolutely appalling,"" he said. He was +""equally horrified"" that festival organisers should accept that Loach was speaking on behalf of all British film-makers. +Sir Jeremy worked closely with Loach in the 1980s when, as chief executive of Channel Four, he commissioned a number +of controversial documentaries from him. One, A Question of Leadership, was made in 1981 but never broadcast, +leading to accusations of political censorship from Loach. The irony of the director's present position was all the more +obvious, given the spirit of the Edinburgh festival, Sir Jeremy said. +""It must be good for cinemagoers at an international film festival to see films by Jews, Arabs, Israelis and Palestinians, to +the benefit of all,"" he said. +""I have admired the Edinburgh International Film Festival for many years and would like to think that this appalling +decision will be rescinded."" +Loach's acclaimed new film Looking for Eric has made him the toast of the Cannes Film Festival. It is, uncharacteristically, +a comedy, although its lead character is an authentic Loach creation — a Mancunian postman who goes off in search of +his idol, the footballer Eric Cantona. +Ezer's film makes no reference to war or politics.

North Korea's behavior increases tensions and undermines stability in Northeast Asia. Such +provocations will only serve to deepen North Korea's isolation. It will not find international acceptance unless it +abandons its pursuit of weapons of mass destruction and their means of delivery. +The danger posed by North Korea's threatening activities warrants action by the international community.

As a Yankees fan (though not as expert as Kris), and an eyewitness to the ""cap"" fiasco, I share everyone's +sensitivity to sports references. But I'm not dead set against trying to leverage that sensitivity in a self- +deprecating, appropriately funny way. A couple thoughts along those lines: +a. ""As you can see, I resisted the urge to wear my Yankees cap."" +b. (if the stage is set up near, for example, second base; substitute whatever part of the field she's near) ""This +is about as close as I'm going to get to playing second base for the Yankees"" +c. ""I kind of feel at home here in Yankee Stadium, because ever since January, I've been playing on a team +with a bunch of guys wearing pinstripes."" +(on the other hand, I'm a little concerned about suggesting that the 1923 team ""looked the same, talked the +same, and came from the same cities and towns"" - seems to be a little dismissive of a team that included such +outsized personalities as Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. +Also, saying ""Today's Yankees play with the strength of a global team"" could provoke an unintended laugh +because they are playing so poorly this year, so far. Maybe safer to broaden it to all of baseball - like ""Major +League Baseball is comprised of truly global teams."" +And the ""I don't care whether you bring us home a World Series"" seems like stretching too far for a sports +metaphor, but in a way that doesn't really make sense in context. maybe better as ""I have every confidence that +you will. ..You are starting your post-graduate life on a field of dreams, and you have every reason to believe +that your own dreams of a better world can come true."" (or something akin to that). +2. I think the speech could benefit from one clear ""soundbite"" that more succinctly captures the essence of her +remarks. More of a clarion call to service, something like: +""...And I hope some of you will join our ranks. But the State Department cannot go up against the great +challenges of our time alone.

Always fun, always interesting and always fulfilling. +Below is a sample of the kind of emails I sent to various people (studio heads; Dan Glickman; etc), which have started to +• generate concern, interest and action. AJC is also active on other fronts, as well. +Just below the email you will find the news item which first called this abomination to my attention. +I hope you can enlist Hilary's support (and please give her my personal best). We need, for many reasons, to have the +US protest and condemn this outrageous boycott and to oppose the anti-Semitism inherent in it; cf Durban. The +organizers of the festival must be convinced to reverse themselves. This, because of the inherent wrongness of it and +that if it succeeds, it will encourage and motivate those who fomented the boycott to other, probably even worse, +action. For example, there is in effect or pending (I am not certain which) a UK-Israeli treaty on film production; we +should cut off at the pass any attempts to derail it. +Our Embassy in London does not yet have our Ambassador. The charge d'affaires is Robert Lebaron who I hope will +receive appropriate instructions from DOS. If he acts quickly, it is likely that other nations will follow suit; again, +compare Durban. +This is truly appalling and serious and I earnestly solicit your assistance with the Secretary, and through you my earnest +solicitation of her assistance. +With appreciation and love, Bruce +PS Naturally, you are free to share this email. +Dear Michael, This is disgusting and outrageous. +If you have any films in the festival or can lean on anyone else who does, please get them withdrawn. We would not +boycott the films of any other nation, even those we consider outlaws. Neither should they. And they should learn that +boycotts beget boycotts. +Thanks for whatever help you can be. +Warmest regards.

Describing Loach's intervention as an act of censorship, he said: ""They must +not allow someone who has no real position, no rock to stand on, to interfere with their programming."" +The grant was intended to enable Tali Shalom Ezer, a graduate of Tel Aviv University, to travel to Scotland for a +screening of her film, Surrogate. +After days of protest against the award from pro-Palestinian organisations, Loach, an outspoken opponent of Israel's +policies in Lebanon and Gaza, urged filmgoers on Monday to boycott Edinburgh. +""The massacres and state terrorism in Gaza make this money unacceptable,"" he said. ""With regret, I must urge all who +might consider visiting the festival to show their support for the Palestinian nation and stay away."" +The intervention brought an immediate capitulation from the organisers. In a statement the festival said it accepted that +Loach spoke ""on behalf of the film community, therefore we will be returning the funding issued by the Israeli Embassy"". +Sir Jeremy said that he was disgusted both by Loach's actions and by the capitulation of the festival organisers. ""Ken +Loach has always been critical of censorship of his own work, albeit it was many years in the past. The idea that he +should lend himself to the denial of a film-maker's right to show her work is absolutely appalling,"" he said. He was +""equally horrified"" that festival organisers should accept that Loach was speaking on behalf of all British film-makers. +Sir Jeremy worked closely with Loach in the 1980s when, as chief executive of Channel Four, he commissioned a number +of controversial documentaries from him. One, A Question of Leadership, was made in 1981 but never broadcast, +leading to accusations of political censorship from Loach. The irony of the director's present position was all the more +obvious, given the spirit of the Edinburgh festival, Sir Jeremy said. +""It must be good for cinemagoers at an international film festival to see films by Jews, Arabs, Israelis and Palestinians, to +the benefit of all,"" he said. +""I have admired the Edinburgh International Film Festival for many years and would like to think that this appalling +decision will be rescinded."" +Loach's acclaimed new film Looking for Eric has made him the toast of the Cannes Film Festival. It is, uncharacteristically, +a comedy, although its lead character is an authentic Loach creation — a Mancunian postman who goes off in search of +his idol, the footballer Eric Cantona. +Ezer's film makes no reference to war or politics. It is a romance set in a sex-therapy clinic. It won the audience award at +an international women's film festival in Israel recently. +14 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761784 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761784 Date: 06/30/2015 +Lord Janner of Braunstone, a Labour peer and former chairman of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, said that he was +disappointed by the festival's decision.

They questioned in particular the +extent of Clinton's powers and the term of his mandate, wondering what role will be attributed to Haiti's elected +representatives. Several pointed out that Heidi Annabi, Ban's special representative in Haiti, and President Rene Preval +would be subservient to Clinton, their senior in rank and described by some media as Haiti's new chief. As expected, +Haitian Government officials and most foreign diplomats hailed this nomination and expressed their optimism about it. +Several political leaders objected to Clinton's being named special envoy to Haiti, saying that it showed the international +community wanted to bring Haiti under its control. +o Former Senate President Belizaire, president of the National Council of the Haitian Political Parties, pointed out that +Haiti has had a foreign force in the country, the UN Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH), since 2004 and now has +an envoy such as President Clinton who is in a ""higher position than any other UN personnel."" These both indicate the +country is being considered a ""genuine protectorate,"" according to Belizaire (Signal FM, 27 May). +o Socialist Identity and Liberty Collective spokesman Cherubin referred to Clinton's mission as an umpteenth ""civil +commission,"" alluding to the administrative steps France took to restore order and peace when Haiti was under French +rule, intended to speed up the process of ""taking charge"" of Haiti. Cherubin added that in the current international +jargon this is called ""colonialism of a third type, or colonialism of necessity"" +(www.alterpresse.org, 22 May). +o According to Christian Movement for a New Haiti leader Mesadieux, Ban's decision will further help put Haiti under +foreign supervision. He asserted that the international community wants to reinforce its control over Haiti's +administration (Radio Vision 2000, 21 May). +o Dr. Eugene of the Haitian Social Christian Party, speaking on the ""Pickup Talk Show"" live from the United States, said +that ""Clinton's responsibility is to control events in Haiti and he will control them in a firm manner"" (Radio Caraibes FM, +23 May). Eugene was ""offended"" by this appointment and called it ""a shame for all Haitians"" and ""a slap in the face of +the entire nation"" (Radio Galaxie, 29 May). +24 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761810 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761810 Date: 06/30/2015 +Lawmakers and political analysts, who questioned how far Clinton's powers would extend and described him as a +colonial administrator, also concluded that Haiti was under trusteeship or protectorate status. +oSenate President Bastien, who said the UN usually sends special emissaries only to ""places where there are crises and +conflicts,"" wondered why former President Clinton had been named special envoy to Haiti. He particularly questioned +the extent of Clinton's mandate, asking ""where do his powers end?"" and concluded that the ongoing rumors of Haiti +being put under trusteeship will be confirmed if clarifications are not offered (Radio Vision 2000, 26 May). +o Professor Lalanne, a former ambassador under the Duvalier regime, described Clinton as ""the new administrator of +the colony called Haiti."" Lalanne said this nomination shows that the international community is not happy with Annabi's +work. He added that he had ""no other interpretation [of the appointment other than it Is]... a reinforcement of the +occupation"" (Radio Kiskeya, 25 May). +oReacting to the appointment, political analyst Gracien Jean referred to Article 76 of the UN fundamental charter and +said that although Haiti is not a classic protectorate with an administrator, the very fact that it cannot administer itself +and has foreign forces in charge of ensuring its security, is an indication that the country is ""under trusteeship or +protectorate status because in principle there is partial restriction of its sovereignty"" (Radio Vision 2000, 26 May). +Media commentators highlighted the powers conferred to President Clinton as minimizing the role of Haitian or UN +officials. +oThe oldest and most famous Haitian newspaper, Le Nouvelliste, questioned in an editorial what mandate former +President Clinton would have in his new role. The paper noted that even though Clinton was presented as ""an +international lawyer for Haiti,"" the country's moderate national ists consider him the new ""governor general,"" recalling +the title given by France to colonial Haiti's highest authority. The paper further asked what role Haiti's elected +representatives would have if President Clinton has responsibility for ""a complete political program."" Moreover, the +editorial questioned how long the program would last (20 May). +o In an article entitled ""Haiti Under High Surveillance,"" journalist Nancy Roc, host of Radio Metropole's famous weekly +talk show ""Metropolis,"" reported: ""This nomination establishes the eviction of the Latin Americans and represents the +response of the Obama Administration to the powerlessness and irresponsibility of the Haitian rulers.... Through this +nomination, Haiti has a new chief.... Annabi and Preval are relegated to a position of secondary importance and will have +to execute to the letter any instructions from [Clinton] their senior in rank (Le Matin, 25 May). +Predictably, government officials and foreign diplomats hailed Clinton's mission and emphasized its beneficial +socioeconomic influence. +oLe Nouvelliste reported on 19 May that ""President Preval received this nomination favorably,"" saying that it is ""a vital +push"" for assuring Haiti's needs remain ""a priority for the international community."" Responding to a journalist who +asked him about Haiti being put under protectorate status, Preval replied that he knew Haiti, as a UN member, was like +many countries with problems who have accepted UN help (Radio Vision 2000, 26 May). +o Prime Minister Pierre-Louis saw in the naming of President Clinton a positive sign all the more so since he is ""a long +time friend of Haiti."" She said it was in the interest of the country to take advantage of all international opportunities +(Radio Caraibes FM, 21 May). +oMINUSTAH spoke of its limits to help social and economic problems, and stressed the appropriateness and the +importance of President Clinton's mission after the hurricanes that hit Haiti last year (Le Nouvelliste, 20 May). +25 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761810 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761810 Date: 06/30/2015 +o The Chilean Chancery said in a communique issued on 26 May that it received this nomination with ""total +approbation"" and expected it to help put Haiti's economic and social development and reconstruction on the +international agenda (www.radiokiskeya.com, 26 May). +On another note, however, OAS representatiave in Haiti, Ricardo Seitenfus reacted defensively to rumors about +President Clinton's appointment, telling Signal FM that ""Haiti will never fall under the protectorate of another country"" +even if it is a ""disguised protectorate."" He further said that the ""OAS will constantly watch to make sure that does not +happen"" (26 May). +26 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761810 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1748,C05761813,SONIA SOTOMAYER,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-05-26T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/23_24_25_26/DOC_0C05761813/C05761813.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,sonia sotonnayer,,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Tuesday, May 26, 2009 8:33 AM",F-2014-20439,C05761813,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761813 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE +IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Tuesday, May 26, 2009 8:33 AM +To: +Subject: sonia sotonnayer +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761813 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1749,C05761815,EDEPARTMENT NOTICE FOR 6/5/2009,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-06-05T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/23_24_25_26/DOC_0C05761815/C05761815.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,FW: eDepartment Notice for 6/5/2009,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Mills, Cheryl D","Friday, June 05, 2009 5:27 PM",F-2014-20439,C05761815,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Importance: High +See below","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761815 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 5:27 PM +To: +Subject: FW: eDepartment Notice for 6/5/2009 +Importance: High +See below +From: Smith, Daniel B +Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 12:54 PM +To: Abedin, Huma; Sullivan, Jacob 3; Valmoro, Lona 3 +Cc: Mills, Cheryl D +Subject: FW: eDepartment Notice for 6/5/2009 +Importance: High +I received this message in The Secretary's Suggestion Box this morning. +From: Pate, Michael 3 +Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 11:39 AM +To: Secretary's Suggestion Box +Subject: FW: eDepartment Notice for 6/5/2009 +Importance: High +Please pass this message to Secretary Clinton. +Thank you so much for your support for the GLT community.

In other words, the Iranians are talking a good game but not delivering. It is within this +context that Mary Beth picked up on the comment by the Secretary of this large embassy in Manangua that +It turns out is not under construction, at least not yet. +On the record, I said that the Secretary picked this up from one of her counterparts from the region during a bilateral. If +it turns out that is not happening, that's good news. The Iranians see themselves as the big winners in the second Gulf +War.

connect it to an array of +global issues, including economic development, health and education, expanding opportunity for women, and +political stability; and declare the Administration's commitment to tackling hunger at its roots, through effective +and efficient collaboration with an array of partners. +Additionally, your remarks can point to a shift from past approaches by emphasizing the need to support local +solutions and focus on long-term sustainability to help people feed themselves and reduce the need for +emergency assistance down the road. +The speech could be framed as follows: +THE PRIZE AND PRIZE-WINNER +You can begin by announcing the winner of the 2009 World Food Prize, Dr. Gebisa Ejeta. He has a remarkable +story: born in a mud hut in Ethiopia, he got his PhD from Purdue University in plant breeding and genetics and +developed strains of sorghum that are drought-tolerant, high-yield, and resistant to the Striga weed, which +devastates crops across Africa. +Outside the lab, he helped start the Sudanese commercial seed industry; developed systems to produce, certify, +and market hybrid seeds; and educated farmers about the use of fertilizers and soil and water conservation. And +he has trained and inspired the next generation of African agricultural scientists. +A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH: FROM LAB TO FARM TO MARKET TO TABLE +Dr. Ejeta's work reflects the breadth of this issue and the comprehensive approach needed to address it—one +that connects the labs where new seed technologies are developed.., the fields where small-scale farmers labor +to feed their families and make a living.., the markets where food is bought and sold... and the homes where +people get the nourishment they need to thrive. +In many places, that food chain is broken. One billion people worldwide woke up hungry this morning and will +go to sleep hungry tonight. Chronic hunger threatens health, while making it harder for people to work and +students to learn, which in turn stunts economic development. Last year's food riots demonstrated that when +food is scarce, political stability is threatened. +44 +To date, the world's primary response to hunger has been to send emergency food aid. While this saves lives, it +is a short-term fix, and we need a long-term solution. +The Obama Administration is committed to leading in developing a new global approach. We will support the +creation of sustainable agricultural systems in appropriate regions around the world, to increase agricultural +productivity, create jobs, strengthen economies, and protect natural resources. +We will do this not by imposing one-size-fits-all solutions, but by assisting countries in carrying out individual +strategies that meet their needs—for example, through the Comprehensive Africa Agriculture Development +Plan. To facilitate coordination and share best practices, we will seek to convene donor governments, +multilateral institutions, NG0s, private companies, foundations, universities, and individuals. +THE ANCHORS OF OUR APPROACH +We've identified seven anchors that secure sustainable agriculture systems. These will guide our approach. +• Increase agricultural productivity by expanding access to quality seeds, fertilizer, irrigation, the credit to +purchase them, and the training to use them. +• Stimulate the post-harvest sector by improving the storage and processing of food and improving +transportation to connect small farmers to markets. +• Maintain natural resources so the land can be farmed well into the future and we can make the right +adaptations for the changing environment. +• Expand knowledge and training by support R&D and developing the next generation of agriculture +scientists. +• Increase trade so small-scale farmers in developing countries can sell their crops far and wide. +• Support policy reform and good governance, because sustainable agriculture flourishes in a clear and +predictable policy and regulatory environment. +• Support women and families in agriculture. Seventy percent of the world's farmers are women, but +most of the programs that offer credit and training to farmers target men. This must change for +agriculture to thrive. And children must have nutrition to contribute to their communities' future. +A PREVIEW OF WHAT'S TO COME +In the coming weeks, President Obama, Secretary Vilsack and I will be reaching out to share our approach to +global coordination and agriculture in greater detail. We will seek the input, wisdom and guidance of those who +have been working so long in this arena—from the Congress to NGOs to academics to foundations to the +private sector. The President's conversations at the G-8 meeting in Italy in two weeks will address our +approach, as well as my trip to Africa in August. +Addressing hunger and food is essential to achieving economic recovery, stabilizing societies, and expanding +opportunity for hundreds of millions of people worldwide. This is why supporting sustainable agriculture +worldwide will be a central element of foreign policy in the Obama Administration. +CONCLUSION +You can circle back to the story of Dr. Ejeta to close. He represents the need for a multinational +approach: born in Ethiopia, educated in the United States, advised by Indian scientists, advisor to several +African nations. +45 +June 6,2009 11:30 +Rooney (x7-7203, +CONCEPT NOTE FOR WORLD FOOD PRIZE CEREMONY +Thursday, June 11, 2009 +This speech is an opportunity to signal the urgency of the problem of global hunger; connect it to +an array of global issues, including economic development, health and education, expanding +opportunity for women, and political stability; and declare the Administration's commitment to +tackling hunger at its roots, through effective and efficient collaboration with an array of +partners. +Additionally, your remarks can point to a shift from past approaches by emphasizing the need to +support local solutions and focus on long-term sustainability to help people feed themselves and +reduce the need for emergency assistance down the road. +The speech could be framed as follows: +THE PRIZE AND PRIZE-WINNER +You can begin by announcing the winner of the 2009 World Food Prize, Dr. Gebisa Ejeta.

Seventy percent of the world's farmers are +women, but most of the programs that offer credit and training to farmers target men. +This must change for agriculture to thrive.

He +has a remarkable story: born in a mud hut in Ethiopia, he got his PhD from Purdue University in +plant breeding and genetics and developed strains of sorghum that are drought-tolerant, high- +yield, and resistant to the Striga weed, which devastates crops across Africa. +Outside the lab, he helped start the Sudanese commercial seed industry; developed systems to +produce, certify, and market hybrid seeds; and educated farmers about the use of fertilizers and +soil and water conservation. And he has trained and inspired the next generation of African +agricultural scientists. +A COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH: FROM LAB TO FARM TO MARKET TO TABLE +Dr. Ej eta's work reflects the breadth of this issue and the comprehensive approach needed to +address it—one that connects the labs where new seed technologies are developed.., the fields +where small-scale farmers labor to feed their families and make a living.., the markets where +food is bought and sold... and the homes where people get the nourishment they need to thrive. +In many places, that food chain is broken. One billion people worldwide woke up hungry this +morning and will go to sleep hungry tonight. Chronic hunger threatens health, while making it +harder for people to work and students to learn, which in turn stunts economic development. +Last year's food riots demonstrated that when food is scarce, political stability is threatened. +To date, the world's primary response to hunger has been to send emergency food aid. While +this saves lives, it is a short-term fix, and we need a long-term solution. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761859 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761859 Date: 06/30/2015 +The Obama Administration is committed to leading in developing a new global approach.

As an implementing partner on +several of these awards, FINCA International thinks that the benefits of multiple layers of +contracted assistance rarely materialize. In F1NCA's experience prime contractors (a) +pass very little funding to their implementing partners, (b) greatly increase the cost to the +taxpayer through 'reselling' the industry's technical expertise at high mark ups, and/or (c) +provide unclear instructions to the organization actually implementing the program on the +ground regarding goals or compliance procedures. FINCA's experiences with direct +awards from USAID missions have proven to be much more successful. +With respect to point A, as a specialized organization, FINCA is unable to compete as a +prime for these multi-disciplinary awards. As a result, FINCA (like many other special- +ized agencies) joins a larger team as a sub-contractor, helping the prime demonstrate to +USAID that they have assembled a team of implementing partners with the skill and ex- +pertise to deliver. However, after the prime wins the award, FINCA often finds that the +primes have little interest in utilizing the mechanism to fund sub-contractor activities. +While USAID generally makes multi-million dollar awards, FINCA's sub-awards rarely +exceed $100,000. +There is little transparency within consortia and very little information is readily available +from USAID, so it is difficult for FINCA to state unequivocally how much money prime +contractors receive, how much they spend on their own overhead and profit, and how +much they pass to sub-contractors, but FINCA's experience includes: +• Haiti: In 2006, USAID Haiti issued a task order under the AMAP MF IQC to +support Haiti's microfinance, small and medium enterprise sector. DAI won the +award in the amount of $6-8 million. DAI sub-contracted a total of $1.2 million. +FINCA received $85,000. +• Uganda: In 2002, FINCA signed a sub-award with Chemonics as part of the +USAID-funded SPEED project to facilitate the transformation of FINCA Uganda. +While the sub-award to FINCA was for $600,000, the procurement process was +so restrictive, that FINCA was only able to receive $325,000. FINCA believes +that the total award to Chemonics was $30 million. +• Armenia / Georgia / Mexico / Ecuador: There are certainly more examples, but +over the last six to eight years, Chemonics and DAI received sizable awards to +support micro-enterprise in these markets. Though running the largest or one of +the largest MFIs in each of these countries, FINCA International has received no +sub-award funding through these mechanisms. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761872 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761872 Date: 06/30/2015 +As a result of their failure to secure funding through the IQC system, a coalition of practi- +tioners (FINCA among them) raised concerns about the system to USAID. USAID re- +plied that given limited staffing they could not manage contracts with individual micro- +finance institutions (MFIs) and suggested that the coalition organize itself and find a +leader to bid against the big contractors. In preparing to bid on the Leaders with Associ- +ates Award (LWA), the industry followed USAID's advice, selecting AED to serve as the +prime since none of the MFIs had the capacity to manage such a large contract. The +ARIES funding for Afghanistan was channeled through the LWA mechanism. Unfortu- +nately, although FINCA has received significant funding for its program in Afghanistan, +AED's limited industry expertise created another reporting layer between USAID and the +MFIs while providing little technical value to the MFIs or USAID when things got tough +in Afghanistan. +With respect to point B, senior FINCA staff who have been hired away by large consult- +ing firms to provide technical assistance to FINCA and other MFIs at a much higher cost +to the US Government include Phil Broughton (hired by Chemonics but who has returned +to FINCA because of its more productive environment), Mark Rostal (hired by DAI) and +Adam Blanco (also hired by DAI). At best, this practice duplicates the talent required for +a project (FINCA must replace these employees). At worst, as contractors lose or reas- +sign these individuals a lack of continuity constantly hinders forward progress. +In addition, much of the technical assistance provided by contractors — despite the quality +of the people they have hired — has been overly broad and not valuable to the organiza- +tion's needs. +With respect to point C, FINCA has on numerous occasions found it difficult to obtain +instructions directly from the local Mission or from AID in Washington, and dialogue +with the prime contractor has in many cases been conspicuously influenced by self- +interest or based on lack of understanding or attention to the goals/outcomes sought by +USAID. We believe that this process is exacerbated by a proclivity to use the grant to +hire as many consultants as possible, resulting in a short term outlook and a diminution of +funds available to achieve the desired outcomes. FINCA believes that direct dialogue +and reporting with AID can ensure a common understanding of goals and an effective +resolution of issues that arise in the course of a project. +When contracting directly with USAID missions, FINCA has found substantially more +success. In 2004, FINCA received an award for $1.2 million from the USAID mission in +Kinshasa to launch a new program in the DR Congo. FINCA earlier had received direct +awards from USAID missions for programs in Kyrgyzstan ($6.2 million) and Azerbaijan +($4 million). These programs are today among FINCA' s most successful affiliates.

WITH $150 IN HIS POCKET, +DANIEL YOHANNES BRINGS A +QUIET DETERMINATION TO HIS TRUSTEE ROLE. +By Leah Arroyo +This article was published in Museum, July/August 2008. +Trustee. The word brings to mind a venerable patrician of senior years, ""trusted"" to guide the interests of an organization or +individual with wisdom and perspective. Someone with old-boy or -girl connections, decades of expertise and, especially, big bucks— +not to mention the ability to pry others away from theirs. Ascot not required, but it couldn't hurt. +In certain ways, Daniel Yohannes of Denver is not your typical museum trustee. At 17, with $150, he moved from Ethiopia to Los +Angeles as an exchange student without knowing a soul. He immediately got a part-time job as a stock boy in a clothing store and +went on to support himself through high school, Claremont McKenna College and the MBA program at Pepperdine. He began his +banking career as a teller at Security Pacific Bank. +But in other ways, Yohannes is the very portrait of a board member. At 55, the president and CEO of M&R Investments, a firm +specializing in real estate, financial institutions and energy. A former vice chairman of U.S. Bancorp. A few years ago he started a +bank in San Francisco on the side. His board membership extends from the financial (a Fortune 100 company) and educational (U.C. +Denver Business School) to community organizations (the chamber of commerce, the National Jewish Hospital and Research Center, +the Boy Scouts Council)—not to mention political service (chairing the transition team of Gov. Bill Ritter, Democrat of Colorado). +And museums, a priority among the board invitations he has accepted. He served on the Smithsonian Institution's national board for +six years and is now a trustee of the Denver Art Museum (DAM), where he established the Daniel Yohannes Family African Gallery. ""I +get a lot of my inspirations intellectually and culturally through art and history, primarily through museums,"" he says. ""So when I +was asked to sit on the [DAM] board, it was just a natural fit for me."" +For all his success, though, Yohannes hardly gives the impression of a Type-A personality. Courtly, soft-spoken, with a melodious +accent paying homage to his Ethiopian roots despite his decades in the U.S., he is generous and unhurried with his time in +interviews. On the phone, he asks how you are, what you've been up to lately; told that an interviewer just bought her first house, +he chats for a few moments about how delightful and meaningful that purchase is. In person, for a conversation at the AAM Annual +Meeting in Denver last spring, he walked into a rather dreary underground room in the convention center, suave in a conservative +navy suit and warm in his greetings, politely oblivious to the tables cluttered with the conference staff's walkie-talkies, office supplies +and assortment of snacks. The photographer got sent to the wrong room and his interviewer had to scurry the length of several +football fields to find her? No problem; he'd reserved plenty of time to talk. ""Take your time."" +And yet you can at times glimpse the calm determination of a man who gets things done and, moreover, fiAly expects to. Vicki +Sterling, the Denver Art Museum's assistant director, says that ""what was truly unique about working with [Yohannes] on the African +gallery was his ability to bring together people from outside the regular museum donor community and get them interested in the +Denver Art Museum."" When you ask him how he did this, who these new museophiles were, you can almost hear him shrug over the +phone. ""Friends of mine, people I knew,"" he says. ""They contributed because I asked them to."" He also shrugs off the question of +how he fits all his commitments into his schedule: ""I think as long as there's a desire to get everything done, it gets done."" Asked +what he does for fun, he has to think for a moment. ""That's a good one. . . . I walk, I play a little golf, do a little bicycling, +sightseeing."" He also collects art, particularly African works, inspired years ago by his travels, though ""only as a hobby."" Last but not +least, he cherishes spending time with his three children, two of whom live in the area, and was overjoyed to become a grandfather +in May (""She's beautiful,"" he beams). +31 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761884 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761884 Date: 07/31/2015 +You walk away from him with an impression of a quietly dynamic man who has more priorities than most of us but can somehow +bring extraordinary focus to each in turn. He says he was driven from the very beginning. ""It was my decision to come here, not my +family's. I've always been a very adventurous person, ever since I was a child, so I made a decision early on that I wanted to make +it on my own. I wanted to go to a place that provided that opportunity for someone like myself, an immigrant. I could not find any +other place but here in the United States that provided all of that opportunity."" Perhaps later generations of his family will be more +jaded about the American dream, but Yohannes speaks of it with unembarrassed directness. ""For someone like myself, it's much +easier to give to the community that has given you so much."" +Fortunately, he sees museum leadership as part of that obligation. +PS: +Margaret +32 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761884 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +1783,C05761885,TIANANMEN STATEMENT,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-06-06T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/23_24_25_26/DOC_0C05761885/C05761885.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,FW: Tiananmen statement,•H,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Saturday, June 06, 2009 4:18 PM",F-2014-20439,C05761885,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"See below. +cdm","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761885 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Saturday, June 06, 2009 4:18 PM +To: •H +Subject: FW: Tiananmen statement +See below. +cdm +From: Stewart, Karen B (DRL) +Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 10:46 AM +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Subject: Fw: Tiananmen statement +Given your meeting in March with NGOs working on human rights in China, I thought you might be interested in this very +positive reaction from Human Rights Watch on the Secretary's Tiananmen statement. +Karen +From: Sophie Richardson [mail to +Sent: Friday, June 05, 2009 4:44 AM +To: Osullivan, Susan X (DRL); Thornton, Susan A +Subject: Tiananmen statement +Susan, Susan, +Many thanks for the Tiananmen statement, which hit all they key points, and went a long way towards resolving any lingering +ambiguity from the Secretary's February comments.

WITH $150 IN HIS POCKET, DANIEL YOHANNES BRINGS A QUIET DETERMINATION TO HIS +TRUSTEE ROLE. +By Leah Arroyo +This article was published in Museum, July/August 2008. +Trustee. The word brings to mind a venerable patrician of senior years, ""trusted"" to guide the interests of an +organization or individual with wisdom and perspective. Someone with old-boy or -girl connections, decades of expertise +and, especially, big bucks—not to mention the ability to pry others away from theirs. Ascot not required, but it couldn't +hurt. +38 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761893 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761893 Date: 07/31/2015 +In certain ways, Daniel Yohannes of Denver is not your typical museum trustee. At 17, with $150, he moved from +Ethiopia to Los Angeles as an exchange student without knowing a soul. He immediately got a part-time job as a stock +boy in a clothing store and went on to support himself through high school, Claremont McKenna College and the MBA +program at Pepperdine. He began his banking career as a teller at Security Pacific Bank. +But in other ways, Yohannes is the very portrait of a board member. At 55, the president and CEO of M&R Investments, +a firm specializing in real estate, financial institutions and energy. A former vice chairman of U.S. Bancorp. A few years +ago he started a bank in San Francisco on the side. His board membership extends from the financial (a Fortune 100 +company) and educational (U.C. Denver Business School) to community organizations (the chamber of commerce, the +National Jewish Hospital and Research Center, the Boy Scouts Council)—not to mention political service (chairing the +transition team of Gov. Bill Ritter, Democrat of Colorado). +And museums, a priority among the board invitations he has accepted. He served on the Smithsonian Institution's +national board for six years and is now a trustee of the Denver Art Museum (DAM), where he established the Daniel +Yohannes Family African Gallery. ""I get a lot of my inspirations intellectually and culturally through art and history, +primarily through museums,"" he says. ""So when I was asked to sit on the [DAM] board, it was just a natural fit for me."" +For all his success, though, Yohannes hardly gives the impression of a Type-A personality. Courtly, soft-spoken, with a +melodious accent paying homage to his Ethiopian roots despite his decades in the U.S., he is generous and unhurried +with his time in interviews. On the phone, he asks how you are, what you've been up to lately; told that an interviewer +just bought her first house, he chats for a few moments about how delightful and meaningful that purchase is. In +person, for a conversation at the AAM Annual Meeting in Denver last spring, he walked into a rather dreary +underground room in the convention center, suave in a conservative navy suit and warm in his greetings, politely +oblivious to the tables cluttered with the conference staff's walkie-talkies, office supplies and assortment of snacks. The +photographer got sent to the wrong room and his interviewer had to scurry the length of several football fields to find +her? No problem; he'd reserved plenty of time to talk. ""Take your time."" +And yet you can at times glimpse the calm determination of a man who gets things done and, moreover, fully expects to. +Vicki Sterling, the Denver Art Museum's assistant director, says that ""what was truly unique about working with +[Yohannes] on the African gallery was his ability to bring together people from outside the regular museum donor +community and get them interested in the Denver Art Museum."" When you ask him how he did this, who these new +museophiles were, you can almost hear him shrug over the phone. ""Friends of mine, people I knew,"" he says. ""They +contributed because I asked them to."" He also shrugs off the question of how he fits all his commitments into his +schedule: ""I think as long as there's a desire to get everything done, it gets done."" Asked what he does for fun, he has to +think for a moment. ""That's a good one.... I walk, I play a little golf, do a little bicycling, sightseeing."" He also collects +art, particularly African works, inspired years ago by his travels, though ""only as a hobby."" Last but not least, he +cherishes spending time with his three children, two of whom live in the area, and was overjoyed to become a +grandfather in May (""She's beautiful,"" he beams). +You walk away from him with an impression of a quietly dynamic man who has more priorities than most of us but can +somehow bring extraordinary focus to each in turn. He says he was driven from the very beginning. ""It was my decision +to come here, not my family's. I've always been a very adventurous person, ever since I was a child, so I made a decision +early on that I wanted to make it on my own. I wanted to go to a place that provided that opportunity for someone like +myself, an immigrant. I could not find any other place but here in the United States that provided all of that +opportunity."" Perhaps later generations of his family will be more jaded about the American dream, but Yohannes +speaks of it with unembarrassed directness. ""For someone like myself, it's much easier to give to the community that +has given you so much."" +Fortunately, he sees museum leadership as part of that obligation. +39 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761893 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761893 Date: 07/31/2015 +PS: +Margaret +40 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761893 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +1787,C05761895,THANK YOU,H2,,,2009-05-13T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_18-20M/DOC_0C05761895/C05761895.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Thank you,H2,,,"Wednesday, May 13, 2009 4:46 PM",F-2014-20439,C05761895,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Madame Secretary, +Thank you for the meeting today.

It is engaged in two major wars, each of which require +improving local economic conditions to achieve success. And it +faces a variety of challenges around the world—from responding to +natural disasters to promoting democratic governance—that demand +effective responses. +Despite these circumstances, the United States does not have a +comprehensive, coherent strategy to guide its development assistance +programs. With the advent of a new administration, the time is ripe +to have a serious policy discussion about the merits of a National +Strategy for Global Development. +The Sustainable Security Program at the Center for American +Progress has written a National Strategy for Global Development, +which it hopes will spark debate. The authors of the document, Dr. +Reuben E. Brigety, II and Sabina Dewan, will discuss their proposal +for an NSGD at this event.

Your accomplishments are too numerous to mention +in more detail, but the depth, breadth and excellence of our agencies and posts in China are acclaimed as +without equal among U.S. diplomatic missions. +Just as important have been successes in improving work-life balance throughout the Mission, in +facilitating employment of our family members, and in promoting the sense of community and mutual +support among employees, sections, and agencies as well as with constituent and neighboring posts. +I am hopeful that some have noticed the effort to provide deserving officers, specialists, family members +and LES employees with opportunities for professional growth including in supervisory and leadership +roles. Because of the ever-increasing diversity and talent of our team, the exit of any one colleague has +never diluted our combined strength nor caused us or the Department concern. I am therefore confident +that we will manage the many transitions we'll address in the coming months with exceptional +competence and that we can count on each others' support as we prepare for new leadership throughout +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761918 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05761918 Date: 06/30/2015 +this terrific Mission. +As many of you know, Christina has been preparing our Hawaii home since March.

It's INSANE that fewer than 1 +in 5 state Department are able to access their email or documents when they're away from their desk. +It has contributed to the 9:00-5:00 culture here and exacerbates the disconnection between D.C. and the missions. This +is a good short-term win and by my estimates will produce new fewer than 624,000 more hours of productivity by end +of year one which I think is extremely conservative - it assumes just 1.5 additional hour online per employee per week. +Given that those being given the tools are principally foreign service officers and people more senior than the mean +average DoS employee, I think this is very reasonable. Will put an evaluative instrument into this to see if I'm correct. +More detail on all this below if you want it. +I should point out that Pat Kennedy and the CO have been great. This has been one of several instances where they +listened, they got it, and they're moving forward. The CIO said she'd thought of it before, just didn't know if she could +handle the politics.

SWO; NEWS-Mahogany; NEWS-EAP +Subject: NYTimes - Utah Governor to Become Ambassador to China +Utah Governor to Become Ambassador to China +By Jeff Zeleny +Updated President Obama on Saturday selected one of the nation's leading Republican governors to serve as +the ambassador to China, nominating Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman for the diplomatic post that Mr. Obama called +""as important as any in the world."" +""We will launch a new era of partnership between our two nations that will advance our shared dreams of +opportunity and security in America, in Asia and around the world,"" Mr. Obama said. ""I can think of no more +important assignment than creating the kinds of bridges between our two countries that will determine the well +being not just of Americans and Chinese, but also the future of the world."" +In a morning announcement at the White House, Mr. Huntsman stood at the president's side in the Diplomatic +Room and accepted the position that he said came as a surprise. As a co-chairman of Senator John McCain's +presidential campaign last year, Mr. Huntsman said he did not expect to be ""called into action by the person +who beat us."" +Mr. Huntsman, 49, learned to speak Mandarin Chinese from his days as a Mormon missionary in Taiwan. He +has worked in two Bush administrations, serving as the ambassador to Singapore in the final year of George +H.W. Bush's term and as a deputy United States trade ambassador for George W. Bush. +For Mr. Obama, whose advisers already have their eyes set on his re-election in 2012, the selection of Mr. +Huntsman is something of a political coup. He has emerged as one of the nation's most visible Republican +governors and was expected to at least consider seeking his party's presidential nomination to run against Mr. +Obama. +""In the breadth of issues at stake, this ambassadorship is as important as any in the world,"" Mr. Obama said. ""I +believe there is much to be gained from a closer working relationship with China, but improved relationships +will require candor on issues in which we don't always agree."" +As the Republican Party forges through a period of reinvention, Mr. Huntsman has been a leading voice for the +direction of the party. He has been a political moderate on issues like immigration, gay rights and the +environment, even though he represented one of the most conservative states in the country. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762241 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762241 Date: 06/30/2015 +It was far from certain whether Mr. Huntsman would have actually sought the Republican presidential +nomination — his centrist views could have created a challenge in early-voting states — but if he is confirmed by +the Senate for the ambassadorship to China, he is part of the Obama team at a time when China is of critical +importance. And he is out of the mix in the 2012 presidential race. +""When the president of the United States asks you to step up and serve in a capacity like this, that to me is the +end of the conversation and the beginning of the obligation to rise to the challenge,"" said Mr. Huntsman, who +was joined by his wife Mary Kaye, and the couple's seven children, one of whom was adopted from China. +The courtship of Mr. Huntsman was overseen by the White House Chief of Staff, Ralun Emanuel, who met with +him last Saturday when the governor was in town for the White House Correspondent's dinner. Mr. Obama also +spoke to Mr. Huntsman, aides said, and was impressed by his experience and views on China. +""Governor Huntsman has respect for China's proud traditions,"" Mr. Obama said Saturday. ""He understands +what it will take to make America more competitive in the 21st century and will be an unstinting advocate for +America's interests and ideals."" +The nomination of Mr. Huntsman is the latest in a series of high-level Republican appointments in the Obama +administration. The president selected two Republicans to serve in his Cabinet, but aides said he was frustrated +when a third choice, Senator Judd Gregg, Republican of New Hampshire, withdrew his nomination as +Commerce Secretary. +Mr. Huntsman, who was elected to his second term of governor last year, intends to step down if he is +confirmed by the Senate. +""I hope the good people of Utah will forgive me and understand how proud they should be of their governor for +his willingness to serve,"" Mr. Obama said.

Minister Davutoglu and I just had a very productive, broad-ranging, comprehensive +discussion. And it is a great privilege to welcome him here to the State Department within the very first weeks of his having been +appointed foreign minister. Of course, I was very honored to have gone to Turkey very early in my term as Secretary of State, and +President Obama had a wonderful visit to Turkey. +And all of that is to confirm the strength and importance of our partnership and alliance. We have a lot of work to do together. Turkey, +the United States, and the entire global community certainly face a great number of challenges, but we also see opportunities. So our +message coming out of the meeting today and our prior meetings is that we're going to deepen and strengthen our cooperation on an +ongoing basis, because we believe that both Turkey and the United States have unique roles to play. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762253 Date: 06/30/2015 +B6 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762253 Date: 06/30/2015 +Now, we obviously already collaborate. Not only are we both members of NATO, but we are working with the G-20 to respond to the +global economic crisis, we're exploring ways to enhance our trade and commerce between our two countries, we're working to develop +new energy sources, including resources from the Caucasus and Central Asia. We're partners in the fight against global terrorism. We +share the goal of a stable Pakistan and Afghanistan, and to deny al-Qaida safe haven that can threaten our countries and many others. +We support Turkey in its fight against the terrorist activities of the PKK, which has been a very important cooperation. +And I underscored again today the United States' strong support for Turkey's bid to become a member of the European Union. Turkey +has made significant progress toward membership. It's been in a process of reform that is generated by its own internal decisions but +which has certainly responded to many of the concerns regarding the strength of the bid that Turkey had. And so we applaud what +Turkey has already done and pledge our efforts to continue working with Turkey. +And so we ranged across a broad number of issues, and I want to just make a special note. As President Obama said yesterday in +Cairo, the United States is committed to broad engagement with Muslims everywhere across the globe based on mutual interests and +mutual respect. We believe strongly in the freedom of religion and expression, in vibrant civil societies, and we know that +those are values that Turkey shares. +And I want to thank the minister and his government for the role that Turkey plays as a force for peace and stability. This is important, +and it's already been demonstrated in the work that Turkey has done for a number of years and continues with respect to +comprehensive peace in the Middle East. And we are strongly supportive of the Turkish efforts to normalize relations with Armenia, and +we are also very strongly supportive of the efforts to resolve the Nagomo-Karabakh conflict. +We discussed Cyprus, which is an issue that the President also addressed when he was in Turkey in April. The two Cypriot leaders +have an opportunity through their commitment to negotiations under the United Nations Good Offices Missions, and the United States is +willina to help the parties. We want to work toward a settlement that reunifies Cyprus into a bi-zonal and bi-communal federation. +We discussed many, many concerns, and I'm just grateful for the commitment by the minister and by his government to play an active +role in our dynamic world. Our relationship is not just about security; it is about seizing these opportunities, and I look forward to +working with you. +7$1 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762253 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1841,C05762254,I JUST FAXED LATEST BARNARD DRAFT FOR YOU TO REVIEW.,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-05-17T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/20_21_22/DOC_0C05762254/C05762254.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,I just faxed latest barnard draft for you to review.,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Sunday, May 17, 2009 8:08 AM",F-2014-20439,C05762254,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,16,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762254 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Sunday, May 17, 2009 8:08 AM +To: +Subject: I just faxed latest barnard draft for you to review. +16 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762254 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1842,C05762256,PHILIPPINE BURMA STATEMENT,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-05-17T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/20_21_22/DOC_0C05762256/C05762256.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Fw: Philippine Burma Statement,,"Abedin, Huma ",SES-O_Shift-11,Sun May 17 08:45:38 2009,F-2014-20439,C05762256,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762256 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent Sunday, May 17, 2009 9:06 AM +To: +Subject: Fw: Philippine Burma Statement +Fyi +Original Message +From: Learned, George E +To: S_SpecialAssistants; Abedin, Huma +Cc: SES-O_Shift-11 +Sent: Sun May 17 08:45:38 2009 +Subject: FW: Philippine Burma Statement +Colleagues, +Per Mr. Gibbons request, please see below. +Best regards, +George Learned, Watch Officer +State Department Operations Center +Original Message +From: Gibbons, Thomas B (Manila) +Sent: Sunday, May 17, 2009 8:35 AM +To: SES-0 +Cc: Memmott, Larry L (Manila); Fernandez, Mario A (Manila); Thompson, Philip A (Manila); Schinnerer, Karen P (Manila); +Marcie!, Scot A; Lakhdhir, Kamala S; Kleine, Michael F; Burgwinkle, Kevin .1; Kenney, Kristie A (Manila) +Subject: Philippine Burma Statement +Ops - Following Secretary Clinton's call on Saturday, May 16, Philippine Foreign Secretary Alberto Romulo had the +Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) issue the following statement on Sunday, May 17.

I've copied below texts of three articles you might not have seen. The first, by Juan Cole, +leading expert from University of Michigan on Iraq/Iran, lays out evidence so far on the +stolen election. Second, I've included the key graphs from Bill Keller's piece today in the +Times on same. And, third, Jane Mayer's article in the new issue of The New Yorker, out +tomorrow. (She sent me a digital copy.) The piece includes an interview with Panetta, +who himself discloses the internal administration debate—he was initially for a +commission but was overruled by Rabin and Axelrod. +2. On the Iranian election, the international press will obviously pursue the story of the +rigging of the vote, which will damage the legitimacy of regime. It's clear from reports +that even the Iranian man-on-the-street is affected by global public opinion and receives +international news through a wide variety of media. Ahmadinejad post-election continues +to ratchet up paranoia to consolidate support. After his statement and post-Bibi today, +there may be a remark to be made to address and defuse paranoia. If anything, whatever +the facts about the integrity of democracy in Iran, there is more reason than ever for all +sides to dispense with the politics of paranoia and discover that there are overriding +shared interests for peace, etc. But when to say anything depends upon how long to let +internal bitterness over the aftermath in Iran to simmer and the pressure from press for a +statement from you. +3. Jane Mayer's piece details the many moving and uncontrolled parts of the torture debate, +which has become chronic and will flare up again and again. The ""distraction"" will not go +away. I would avoid ever being drawn into commenting on any aspect. +4. One additional thought: The Iranian election points to the truism that things can +potentially go awry. Building up ""the brand"" of the president as the solvent for entangled +and often intractable diplomatic crises creates the basis for an opposite reaction. Raised +expectations can foster even greater disillusionment. After Lebanon's election, the US +press built up the magic of the brand as the new dynamic factor causing change. So +there's a fine line here to be walked. I would attribute positive changes or movements to +those people making them themselves, to the extent US commendation does not injure +their causes, and underline that a new global community will serve those and their +nation's interests who participate as active and responsible actors. But to reemphasize: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +the danger of attributing any and all change in the world to presidential charisma is that +the bad will get assigned as well as the good. +http://www.truthoutorg/061409Z +Stealing the Iranian Election +Saturday 13 June 2009 +by: Juan Cole I Visit article original @ Informed Comment +Top Pieces of Evidence that the Iranian Presidential Election Was Stolen +1.It is claimed that Ahmadinejad won the city of Tabriz with 57%. His main opponent, Mir +Hossein Mousavi, is an Azeri from Azerbaijan province, of which Tabriz is the capital. Mousavi, +according to such polls as exist in Iran and widespread anecdotal evidence, did better in cities +and is popular in Azerbaijan. Certainly, his rallies there were very well attended. So for an Azeri +urban center to go so heavily for Ahmadinejad just makes no sense. In past elections, Azeris +voted disproportionately for even minor presidential candidates who hailed from that province. +2.Ahmadinejad is claimed to have taken Tehran by over 50%. Again, he is not popular in the +cities, even, as he claims, in the poor neighborhoods, in part because his policies have produced +high inflation and high unemployment. That he should have won Tehran is so unlikely as to raise +real questions about these numbers. [Ahmadinejad is widely thought only to have won Tehran in +2005 because the pro-reform groups were discouraged and stayed home rather than voting.) +3.It is claimed that cleric Mehdi Karoubi, the other reformist candidate, received 320,000 +votes, and that he did poorly in Iran's western provinces, even losing in Luristan. He is a Lur and +is popular in the west, including in Kurdistan. Karoubi received 17 percent of the vote in the first +round of presidential elections in 2005. While it is possible that his support has substantially +declined since then, it is hard to believe that he would get less than one percent of the vote. +Moreover, he should have at least done well in the west, which he did not. +4.Mohsen Rezaie, who polled very badly and seems not to have been at all popular, is alleged +to have received 670,000 votes, twice as much as Karoubi. +5.Ahmadinejad's numbers were fairly standard across Iran's provinces. In past elections there +have been substantial ethnic and provincial variations. +6.The Electoral Commission is supposed to wait three days before certifying the results of the +election, at which point they are to inform Khamenei of the results, and he signs off on the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +process. The three-day delay is intended to allow charges of irregularities to be adjudicated. In +this case, Khamenei immediately approved the alleged results. +I am aware of the difficulties of catching history on the run. Some explanation may emerge for +Ahmadinejad's upset that does not involve fraud. For instance, it is possible that he has gotten the +credit for spreading around a lot of oil money in the form of favors to his constituencies, but +somehow managed to escape the blame for the resultant high inflation. +But just as a first reaction, this post-election situation looks to me like a crime scene. And here +is how I would reconstruct the crime. +As the real numbers started coming into the Interior Ministry late on Friday, it became clear +that Mousavi was winning. Mousavi's spokesman abroad, filmmaker Mohsen Makhbalbaf., +alleges > that the ministry even contacted Mousavi's camp and said it would begin preparing the +population for this victory. The ministry must have informed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, +who has had a feud with Mousavi for over 30 years, who found this outcome unsupportable. +And, apparently, he and other top leaders had been so confident of an Ahmadinejad win that they +had made no contingency plans for what to do if he looked as though he would lose. +They therefore sent blanket instructions to the Electoral Commission to falsify the vote counts. +This clumsy cover-up then produced the incredible result of an Ahmadinejad landlside in +Tabriz and Isfahan and Tehran. +The reason for which Rezaie and Karoubi had to be assigned such implausibly low totals was +to make sure Ahmadinejad got over 51% of the vote and thus avoid a run-off between him and +Mousavi next Friday, which would have given the Mousavi camp a chance to attempt to rally the +public and forestall further tampering with the election. +This scenario accounts for all known anomalies and is consistent with what we know of the +major players. +More in my column, just out, in Salon.com: More in my column, just out, in Salon.com: +""Ahmadinejad reelected under cloud of fraud,"" where I argue that the outcome of the presidential +elections does not and should not affect Obama's policies toward that country - they are the right +policies and should be followed through on regardless. +The public demonstrations against the result don't appear to be that big. In the past decade, +reformers have always backed down in Iran when challenged by hardliners, in part because no +one wants to relive the horrible Great Terror of the 1980s after the revolution, when faction- +fighting produced blood in the streets. Mousavi is still from that generation. +My own guess is that you have to get a leadership born after the revolution, who does not +remember it and its sanguinary aftermath, before you get people willing to push back hard +against the rightwingers. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +So, there are protests against an allegedly stolen election. The Basij paramilitary thugs and the +Iranian Revolutionary Guards will break some heads. Unless there has been a sea change in Iran, +the theocrats may well get away with this soft coup for the moment. But the regime's legitimacy +will take a critical hit, and its ultimate demise may have been hastened, over the next decade or +two. +What I've said is full of speculation and informed guesses. I'd be glad to be proved wrong on +several of these points. Maybe I will be. +PS: Here's the data: +So here is what Interior Minister Sadeq Mahsouli said Saturday about the outcome of the +Iranian presidential elections: +""Of 39,165,191 votes counted (85 percent), Mahmoud Ahmadinejad won the election with +24,527,516 (62.63 percent)."" +He announced that Mir-Hossein Mousavi came in second with 13,216,411 votes (33.75 +percent). +Mohsen Rezaei got 678,240 votes (1.73 percent) +Mehdi Karroubi with 333,635 votes (0.85 percent). +He put the void ballots at 409,389 (1.04 percent). +http://vvww.nytimes.com/2009/06/14/world/middleeast/14memo.html? r=l&hp +Memo From Tehran +Reverberations as Door Slams on Hope of Change +By Bill Keller +On the street, the speculation focused more on how the election was manipulated, as many voters +insisted it must have been for Mr. Ahmadinejad to score such a preposterous margin of victory. +One version (from somebody's brother who supposedly knew someone inside) had it that vote +counters simply were ordered to doctor the numbers: ""Make that 1,000 for Ahmadinejad a +3,000."" +Others pointed out that the ballots seemed designed to lead opposition voters astray. Voters were +obliged to choose a candidate and fill in a code. Though Mr. Moussavi was candidate No. 4, the +code No. 44 signified Mr. Ahmadinejad. +One employee of the Interior Ministry, which carried out the vote count, said the government +had been preparing its fraud for weeks, purging anyone of doubtful loyalty and importing pliable +staff members from around the country. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +""They didn't rig the vote,"" claimed the man, who showed his ministry identification card but +pleaded not to be named.

A few miles +from the agency's headquarters, which +are in Langley, Virginia, former Vice- +President Dick Cheney delivered an extraordinary +attack on the Obama Administration's +emerging national-security +policies. Cheney, speaking at the American +Enterprise Institute, accused the +new Administration of making ""the +American people less safe"" by banning +brutal C.I.A. interrogations of terrorism +suspects that had been sanctioned by the +Bush Administration.

I think that's +dangerous politics."" +Panetta was also absorbing criticism +from the left. The day before, a group of +progressive human-rights advocates had +been given an off-the-record briefing +with Obama, where they discussed his +plans for handling terrorism suspects; +some of the advocates were enraged at +what they saw as a tacit continuation of +the Bush approach. According to a participant, +Obama warned the group that +such comparisons were ""not helpful."" +Nevertheless, Kenneth Roth, the executive +director of Human Rights Watch, +who also attended the briefing, went on +to denounce the Administration for considering +""preventive detention""—incarcerating +certain terror suspects indefinitely, +without trial. Obama's position, Roth +said, ""mimics the Bush Administration's +abusive approach."" +Since January, the C.I.A. has become +the focus of almost daily struggle, as +Obama attempts to restore the rule of +law in America's fight against terrorism +without sacrificing safety or losing the +support of conservative Democratic and +independent voters. So far, he has insisted +on trying to recalibrate the agency's +policies without investigating past mistakes +or holding anyone responsible for +them. Caught in the middle is Panetta, +who is seventy years old and has virtually +no experience in the intelligence field. +Indeed, his credentials for running the +world's foremost spy agency are so unlikely +that when John Podesta, the head +of Obama's transition team, asked him to +take the job he responded, ""Are you +sure?"" Podesta assured Panetta that his +outsider status was actually an advantage: +""He said, 'You don't carry the scars of the +past eight years. Besides, the President +wants somebody who will talk straight to +him on these issues.' "" +Although Panetta served briefly in the +military, half a century ago, his reputation +has been built almost entirely on his +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +mastery of domestic policy.

Colleagues +say that Panetta, who attends Mass regularly, +can be principled to the point of rigidity. +It was partly Panetta's rectitude +that got him the C.I.A. job. During the +Bush years, he decried the country's loss +of moral authority; in a blunt essay for +Washington Monthly last year, he declared +that Americans had been transformed +""from champions of human dignity and +individual rights into a nation of armchair +torturers."" He concluded, ""We either believe +in the dignity of the individual, the +rule of law, and the prohibition of cruel +and unusual punishment, or we don't. +There is no middle ground."" +Panetta's impassioned essay unexpectedly +became an asset during the +Obama transition, after John Brennan— +the initial candidate for C.I.A. +director—was pressured to withdraw. +Critics accused Brennan, who had been +a top agency official during the Bush +years, of complicity with the torture +program. (A friend of Brennan's from +his C.I.A. days complained to me, +""After a few Cheeto-eating people in +the basement working in their underwear +who write blogs voiced objections +to Brennan, the Obama Administra- +tion pulled his name at the first sign of +smoke, and then ruled out a whole class +of people: anyone who had been at the +agency during the past ten years couldn't +pass the blogger test."") +Panetta had one other strong qualification: +he was close to Rahm Emanuel, +the new chief of staff.

When Panetta became +chief of staff, however, he reinstated +Emanuel as a top aide. ""I thought he +had a lot of street smarts and good political +sense,"" Panetta told me. +In 1994, Panetta discovered, to his +dismay, that the President had quietly +turned to Dick Morris, a political consultant +with a dubious ethical reputation. +Harold Ickes, a former White +House aide, recalls Panetta walking the +halls late one night and saying that he +needed a shower after attending a meeting +with Morris. Later, a tabloid newspaper +reported that Morris had been +meeting with a prostitute in a nearby +Washington hotel. In 1997, Panetta left +the White House, by mutual agreement; +he and his wife, Sylvia, founded +the nonpartisan Panetta Institute for +Public Policy, in Northern California. +In January, 1998, it was revealed that +Clinton had conducted an extramarital +affair with Monica Lewinsky—Panetta's +former intern. An associate described +Panetta then as ""very disappointed +in Bill Clinton, because of +Monica Lewinsky. He saw him as a +man with no personal discipline."" +Eleven years later, Barack Obama +called Panetta for advice on who might +make a good chief of staff. Panetta recommended +Emanuel, telling him that +""Rahm knows the Hill, he certainly +knows the White House, and he's got +the tough side"" necessary for the job. In +January, Emanuel recommended Panetta +for the C.I.A. post. Emanuel said +of Panetta, ""Leon has great judgment, a +great compass.,He's a great manager, and +he's trusted by both parties."" (Panetta +was a Republican until 1971.) Some former +C.I.A. officers, such as Tyler Drumheller, +who retired in 2005 as the head of +clandestine operations in Europe, welcome +the choice.

He added, ""An agency +like that can turn on a director. That's +the challenge: he's got to both lead it +and reform it."" +The record of outsiders taking over the +C.I.A. is mixed. John McCone, a +California shipping magnate who ran the +agency in the Kennedy and Johnson years, +is often cited as being among the most +successful directors; having been trained as +a mechanical engineer, he was skilled at +assessing threats posed by both conventional +and nuclear weapons. But other +outsiders have been met with intense hostility. +James Schlesinger was named C.I.A. +director by President Richard Nixon after +heading the Atomic Energy Commission. +Given instructions to ""get rid of the +clowns,"" Schlesinger dismissed or forced +into retirement more than five hundred +analysts and a thousand clandestine +officers. He faced death threats, and his +tenure lasted six months. In 1995, President +Clinton appointed John Deutch, +who had previously served at the Pentagon. +Deutch tried to improve the oversight +of clandestine operatives after evidence +surfaced that an agent in Guatemala +had covered up two murders.

At +least three prisoners died. +Torture is a felony, and is sometimes +treated as a capital crime.

Senator +Dianne Feinstein, the new chairman +of the Intelligence Committee, +told me, ""There's no vote that I regret +more than the vote to authorize war +with Iraq""; her vote was based on intelligence +that she describes as ""flat wrong."" +Feinstein went on, ""I am absolutely determined +to reform the process of gathering +and analyzing intelligence."" +As soon as Obama took office, he overturned +most aspects of the Bush Administration's +interrogation policy. He issued +an executive order banning inhumane +treatment of prisoners by any government +officials, and one closing the C.I.A.'s network +of secret ""black site"" prisons, which +stretched from Poland to Thailand. He +also vowed to close the military prison in +Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, where fourteen +former C.I.A. prisoners are being held. +But Obama's message has been uncharacteristically +muddled on the question of accountability. +He has said that Attorney +General Holder should be the one to decide +whether to take criminal action; he +has also said that he would support further +congressional investigation, as long as it +was done in a bipartisan fashion. At the +same time, he has signalled that he has no +appetite for ""looking backwards,"" and in +late April, during a private White House +meeting with congressional leaders, he rejected +the idea of an outside truth commission. +In the meantime, Republicans +have seized the political initiative, expressing +grave concern about the plans to close +Guantanamo and transfer the prisoners to +U.S. facilities. +Tim Weiner, the author of ""Legacy +of Ashes,"" a recent history of the C.I.A., +says that Panetta is facing a series of +""unappetizing choices."" Weiner believes +that the country is in a period similar to +the Watergate era, when a series of disturbing +state secrets—such as the existence +of the Phoenix Program, a C.I.A.- +supported initiative, in which the South +Vietnamese were alleged to have tortured +civilians—spilled out. Speaking of +Panetta, he said, ""It can't be comfortable +for a man who said, 'This is un-American,' +to be put in the position of saying, +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +'Well, we hold no one accountable.'"" +Panetta, whose conversation with me at +C.I.A. headquarters was his first +lengthy interview on the topic of abusive +interrogations, said that when he took +over the agency he ""wanted to be damn +sure"" that there was nobody on the payroll +who should be prosecuted for torture or +related crimes. He asked John Helgerson, +then the C.I.A.'s inspector general, to +conduct a review. In theory, the inspector +general is politically independent, and +therefore able to render unbiased judgments. +In 2004, Helgerson had written +a classified report on the C.I.A.'s secret +detention-and-interrogation program, in +which he questioned both the legality and +the effectiveness of the agency's brutally +coercive techniques. Panetta cited Helgerson's +""credibility"" as a reason to trust his assessment. +According to Panetta, Helgerson, +who is not a lawyer, assured him that +no officer still at the agency had engaged +in actions that went beyond the legal +boundaries as they were understood during +the Bush years. Helgerson, who retired +from the agency in May, says he told +Panetta only that he was not aware of any +cases that merited prosecution, though +""continuing work was being done."" +Panetta told me, ""I'm going to give +people the benefit of the doubt. . . . If they +do the job that they're paid to do, I can't ask +for a hell of a lot more."" His words echo +those of President Obama, who on April +16th promised immunity from prosecution +to any C.I.A. officer who relied on the +advice of legal counsel during the Bush +years. Jeffrey H. Smith, a former general +counsel to the C.I.A., points out that this +is a low standard, given that ""what the Justice +Department approved was outrageous."" +For example, for more than a century +the U.S. had prosecuted waterboarding +as a serious crime, and a ten-year prison +sentence was issued as recently as 1983. Indeed, +the memos authorizing interrogators +to torment prisoners clashed so glaringly +with international and U.S. law that some +of them were later withdrawn by lawyers in +Bush's own Justice Department. +Smith, who has advised Obama informally +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +on how to handle the C.I.A.'s legacy +of abuse, thinks that prosecutions are +not politically viable at this point, and +would in any case be unfair to officers who +thought they were adhering to the law. +And many Republicans, from Newt Gingrich +to John McCain, have argued that +pressing charges against government +officials would threaten morale and inhibit +risk-talcing at a time when the agency +faces wars on two fronts and a continuing +threat from Al Qaeda. The Harvard law +professor Laurence Tribe disagrees. ""It's +hard not to do something to those who +performed the act,"" he says. ""It's not beyond +the pale to imagine that even people +armed with legal opinions might be held +legally responsible for violating the criminal +law in the area of torture."" +Panetta told me, ""Frankly, I didn't +support these methods that were used, +or the legal justification for why they did +it. . . . I also believed if I were to take this +job it was about dealing with the threats +that are out there, and trying to really +bring the C.I.A. into a new chapter."" He +said that once he felt confident that +there was no criminal liability inside the +agency he ""didn't want to spend a lot of +time dealing with the past and what +mistakes were made."" +It turns out, however, that Panetta initially +supported the creation of a truth +commission. ""I'm not big on commissions,"" +Panetta told me. ""On the other +hand, I could see that it might make some +sense, frankly, to appoint a high-level +54 THE NEW YORKER, JUNE 22, 2009 +commission, with somebody like Sandra +Day O'Connor, Lee Hamilton—people +like that."" The appeal was that Obama +could delegate to others the legal problems +stemming from Bush Administration actions, +allowing him to focus on his ambitious +political agenda. ""In the discussion +phase""—early in the spring, before Obama +decided the issue—""I was for it,"" Panetta +said. ""Because every time a question came +up, you could basically say, 'The commission, +hopefully, is looking at this.' ""But by +late April Obama had vetoed the idea, +fearing that it would look vindictive and, +possibly, inflame his predecessor. ""It was +the President who basically said, 'If I do +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +this, it will look like I'm trying to go after +Cheney and Bush,' ""Panetta said. ""He just +didn't think it made sense. And then everybody +kind of backed away from it."" +Ken Gude, an associate director at the +Center for American Progress, who specializes +in national-security issues, and who +has close ties to the White House, believes +that Obama's instinct, like Panetta's, was +to set up a truth commission of some sort. +""I think the political staff walked it back,"" +he says. ""They said it would be a distraction."" +Obama's political advisers dread any +issue that could trigger a culture war and +diminish his support among independent +voters. They also see little advantage in +picking a fight with the C.I.A. But the decision +to discourage an accountability process, +Gude says, has backfired. The Administration +has lost control of the story, as +revelations about C.I.A. misdeeds have +continued to emerge through lawsuits and +the press. ""It's now become the distraction +they wanted to avoid,"" Gude says. ""The +White House briefings have been dominated +by questions about releasing documents +and photos."" It's understandable, he +says, that Obama wouldn't want to spend +his energy on Bush's mistakes. But, he +warns, ""they can't leave the impression that +they're trying to cover it up."" +Panetta may not have scars from the +past eight years, but he is surrounded +by people who do. Some of his closest +advisers have connections to the torture +program. Panetta brought only one person +with him to the agency: Jeremy +Bash, the well-regarded former chief +counsel to the House Intelligence Committee, +who now serves as his chief of +staff. Phil Trounstine, a California-based +political consultant and analyst who has +known Panetta for years, says of him, +""Here's a guy who has been very critical +of the Bush world view, who has to enforce +a new set of guidelines and policies +by leading the same agency and the same +people as in the past."" +Several of Panetta's top deputies worked +closely with George Tenet, the agency's +director from 1997 until 2004. Under +Tenet, the C.I.A. took the lead role in +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +fighting terrorism, and its officers became +the jailers, and sometimes the tormentors, +of many U.S.-held detainees. Tenet, who +is now a managing director of the investment +bank Allen & Company, has all but +disappeared from public sight in Washington. +He recently cancelled an appearance +scheduled at the Panetta Institute this +month. (""George has not wanted to do +stuff in front of a camera,"" Panetta noted.) +But in his 2007 memoir, ""At the Center of +the Storm,"" Tenet defended the use of +""enhanced"" interrogation techniques on +terror suspects, claiming that the information +they elicited had prevented other attacks +and saved American lives. (He also +assured President Bush that the case for +going to war in Iraq was ""a slam dunk."") +But a former senior agency official who +worked with many of Tenet's top team +members says, ""These people carried out +this policy. . . but they'll muddy the waters +by explaining why what they did was O.K. +They will say that 'Bush was bad' but they +weren't. A lot of it is just to protect their +own positions. It's amazing to me that all +these Tenet people survived!"" +Behind Panetta's desk—next to a +framed, tattered American flag that was +rescued from the ruins of the World +Trade Center—is a door leading to the +office of Stephen Kappes, whom Panetta +has kept on as the agency's second-incommand. +Kappes, a former U.S. marine, +is widely admired within the agency, in +particular for his role in persuading the +Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi to +abandon his nuclear-weapons program, in +2003. ""Kappes is the case officer's case +officer,"" John Radsan, who was a lawyer at +the C.LA. during President Bush's first +term, says. Intense, serious, and fluent in +Russian and Farsi, Kappes has served as a +station chief in Moscow, New Delhi, and +Frankfurt, and has supervised many clandestine +operations. In April, President +Obama paid a visit to C.I.A. headquar- +ters and singled out Kappes as the wise +""graybeard"" in the building. Senator Fein- +stein insisted to Obama Administration +officials privately that Kappes continue as +deputy director; it was a condition of her +support for Panetta, whose lack of experience +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +in covert operations she questioned. +During the first term of the Bush Administration, +Kappes was a top official +in the Directorate of Operations. This +group oversaw the agency's Counterterrorist +Center, which, in turn, managed +the secret detention-and-interrogation +program. Few doubt that he was aware +that the C.I.A. was engaging in brutality. +One former officer recalls that Kappes +voiced qualms, warning that the program +amounted to ""torture."" According to the +former officer, once Kappes was overruled +he went along; Kappes was ""the brains"" of +the directorate, the former officer says. +(Kappes, through a spokesman, denied +having had a direct role in the interrogation +program, or having called its tactics +torture.) Another former C.I.A. operative +says, ""It would be hard to say someone so +involved could be robustly objective"" in +advising Panetta. +Panetta says that most of the individuals +who managed the secret interrogation +program have since left the agency. One of +the holdovers is Jonathan Fredman, who +was formerly the chief counsel to the division +that ran the interrogation program; +he is now on temporary assignment with +the director of National Intelligence. According +to notes from a 2002 meeting, +which were disclosed at a recent Senate +hearing, Fredman advised that torture ""is +basically subject to perception. If the detainee +dies, you're doing it wrong."" The +notes, whose accuracy Fredman has disputed, +describe him saying that videotapes +of interrogations would look ""ugly."" Fredman's +former boss is John A. Rizzo, the +C.I.A.'s acting general counsel, who +was the recipient of many of the Justice +Department's torture memos. (Rizzo is +scheduled to leave the agency once a replacement +has been confirmed.) And the +current head of the Counterterrorist Center— +the officer, who is undercover, cannot +be identified—ran the interrogation +program for part of Bush's second term. +Several current station chiefs and division +chiefs were also deeply involved in brutal +interrogations, as were pilots, logistical experts, +medical personnel, and others. +Meanwhile, John Brennan—the man +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +who was considered too politically toxic for +the top C.I.A. job—has become a senior +official on the National Security Council. +Brennan, who, as one former C.I.A. officer +puts it, was once ""joined to George Tenet +at the hip""—he served as Tenet's chief of +staff—now advises Obama on terrorism +and other national-security issues. He has • +reportedly lobbied hard to maintain secrecy +on past abuses. According to Newsweek, +Brennan recently persuaded Panetta +to join him in protesting Obama's plan to +release four shocking Justice Department +memos about the interrogation program. +The documents, written by lawyers in the +Office of Legal Counsel, showed that the +C.I.A. had waterboarded one suspect at +least a hundred and eighty-three times and +subjected many others to harrowing mistreatment. +Opponents have argued that +exposing such details could spark an anti- +American backlash. Panetta also argued +forcefully in favor of indemnifying any +C.I.A. officers whose actions, as described +in the memos, might have opened them +up to criminal charges. +Several well-respected former C.I.A. +officials—including Fred Hitz, a former +inspector general, and Paul Pillar, a former +Middle East analyst—told me that • +they saw no harm in releasing the documents. +Dennis C. Blair, the director of +National Intelligence, who oversees the +U.S. intelligence establishment, including +the C.I.A., also supported the release +of the documents, after his staff concluded +that the disclosures would likely +do no damage. +After intense consideration, and a latenight +meeting in Rahm Emanuel's office, +Obama rejected Panetta's arguments for +secrecy, deciding that it was in the public +interest to release the memos. But Obama +also endorsed the notion of giving blanket +amnesty to any C.I.A. officers performing +authorized work. +Panetta's resistance to public disclosure +seemed out of character to some longtime +colleagues. ""I was surprised by Leon's +position on the O.L.C. memos,"" Phil +Trounstine told me. ""It's tough to maintain +your principles when you're head of +the C.I.A., because you need to be seen as +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +someone that the people inside the agency +want to follow."" Panetta had become an +advocate for secrecy so quickly, a White +House official joked, that ""it's like 'Invasion +of the Body Snatchers.'"" +Panetta's advisers may have had a personal +stake in opposing transparency. Another +former C.I.A. official, who knows +Brennan well, noted that, if the Bush torture +program were to be further investigated, +""potentially, both Brennan and +Kappes could have a lot to lose."" Brennan's +supporters have argued that he had no operational +control over the interrogation +program, and point out that his tenure +as Tenet's chief of staff ended in March, +2001, before the Al Qaeda attacks. But he +was subsequently named deputy executive +director, and served in that position until +March, 2003—the period when the most +brutal detainee treatment occurred. In addition, +Brennan often briefed President +Bush about daily developments in the war +on terror. Brennan has described himself +as an internal critic of waterboarding—a +position that friends, such as Emile Nakhleh, +a former senior officer, confirm. Yet, +in an interview with me two years ago, +Brennan defended the use of ""enhanced"" +interrogation techniques and extraordinary +renditions, +in which the C.I.A. abducted +terror suspects around the globe +and transported them to other countries to +be jailed and interrogated; many of those +countries had execrable human-rights records. +He also questioned some people's +definition of ""torture."" ""I think it's torture +when I have to ride in the car with my kids +and they have loud rap music on,"" he said. +Asked if ""enhanced"" interrogation techniques +were necessary to keep America +safe, he replied, ""Would the U.S. be handicapped +if the C.I.A. was not, in fact, able +to carry out these types of detention and +debriefing activities? I would say yes."" +Anthony Lake, who was the national- +security adviser under Clinton, +said of Brennan, ""I've known John a long +time, and he's a really good guy. I would +argue, you can't throw out the whole +agency."" Lake, in fact, recommended +Brennan to the Obama campaign when +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +it was looking for intelligence advisers— +after consulting with their mutual friend +George Tenet. America's intelligence +community is an incestuous one, making +it difficult for a President to break +with old ways of thinking. +Indeed, a well-informed analyst with +close ties to the White House says that the +C.I.A. has been lobbying hard to get +Obama to support some form of preventive +detention for terror suspects. An agency +spokesman denies this. But the analyst +56 THE NEW YORKER, JUNE 22, 2009 +says, ""They definitely want the flexibility to +hold people in some form of detention. +They have been saying, 'We need deep +authorities.' They've been presenting the +President with nightmare scenarios."" +Panetta, for his part, has been persuaded +that renditions are a tool worth +keeping. The rendition program began, in +a more carefully monitored form, during +the Clinton Administration, but in the +Bush years it was transformed into what +John Radsan, the former C.I.A. lawyer, +called ""an abomination."" As many as +seven detainees were misidentified and +abducted by mistake; many other suspects +have alleged that they were hideously tortured +by foreign governments. Panetta +told me, ""The worst part of rendition was +rendition to a black site. That will not be +the case anymore. If we render someone, +it will be to a country with jurisdiction +over that individual."" During the Bush +years, however, some of the most horrific +allegations of abuse were made by detainees +rendered not to black sites but to +Egypt, Syria, and Morocco. The Obama +Administration, Panetta says, will take +precautions to insure that rendered suspects +are treated humanely, as the law requires. +""I've talked to the State Department, +and our people have to make very +sure that people won't be mistreated,"" Panetta +said. ""Some places, obviously, it's +more difficult to do. But we're going to +have to press to make sure it doesn't happen, +because it would fly in the face of everything +the President has said we stand +for."" The Bush Administration professed +to be taking similar precautions. +The C.I.A. has apparently done nothing +to penalize the officer who oversaw one +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +of the most notorious renditions—that of +a German car salesman named Khaled el- +Masri. He was abducted while on a holiday +in Macedonia, and flown by the agency +to Afghanistan, where he was detained in +a dungeon for five months without charges, +before being released. From the start, the +rendition team suspected that his case was +one of mistaken identity. But the C.I.A. +officer in charge at Langley—the agency +asked that the officer's name be withheld— +insisted that Masri be further interrogated. +""She just looked in her crystal ball +and it said that he was bad,"" a colleague recalls. +Masri says that he was chained in a +freezing cell with no bed, and given water +so putrid that he could smell it across the +room. He was threatened and stripped, +and could hear other detainees crying all +around him. After several weeks, the +C.I.A. officer in charge learned that Masri's +German passport was not a forgery, as +was originally suspected, and that he was +not the terror suspect the agency thought +he was. (The names were similar.) Even so, +the officer in charge refused to release him. +Eventually, Masri went on a hunger strike, +losing sixty pounds. Skeptics in the agency +went directly over the officer's head to +Tenet, who realized that his agency had +been brutalizing an innocent man. Masri +was released after a hundred and forty-nine +days. But the officer in charge was not disciplined; +in fact, a former colleague says, +""she's been promoted—twice."" Masri, +meanwhile, has been unable to sue the +U.S. government for either an apology or +damages, because the courts consider the +very existence of rendition a state secret— +a position that the Obama Justice Department +has so far supported. +No criminal charges have ever been +brought against any C.I.A. officer involved +in the torture program, despite the +fact that at least three prisoners interrogated +by agency personnel died as the result +of mistreatment. In the first case, an +unnamed detainee under C.I.A. supervision +in Afghanistan froze to death after +having been chained, naked, to a concrete +floor overnight. The body was buried in +an unmarked grave.

A forensic examiner +found that he had essentially been +crucified; he died from asphyxiation after +having been hung by his arms, in a hood, +and suffering broken ribs.

(Several other detainees have +disappeared and remain unaccounted for, +according to Human Rights Watch.) +During his tenure at the C.I.A., John +Helgerson, the former inspector general, +forwarded the crucifixion case, along with +an estimated half-dozen other incidents, to +the Justice Department, for possible prosecution. +But the case files have languished. +An official familiar with the cases told me +that the agency has deflected inquiries by +the Senate Intelligence Committee seeking +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +information about any internal disciplinary +action. (Helgerson told me, ""Some +individuals have been disciplined. And +others no longer work at the agency."") +Panetta acknowledges that there are +some people still at the C.I.A. who may be +tainted by the torture program. Nevertheless, +he says, ""I really respect the people +who say we shouldn't have gotten involved +in the interrogation business but we had to +do our jobs. I don't think I should penalize +people who were doing their duty. If +you have a President who exercises bad +judgment, the C.I.A. pays the price."" +On June 1st, former Vice-President +Cheney asserted in a speech that the +C.I.A., rather than the White House, first +proposed hurting prisoners during interrogations. +""It was their initiative,"" he said. +""They had a couple of cases where they +thought enhanced interrogation techniques +would provide information."" Panetta +has a different view. ""There is no +question in my mind,"" he said. ""The interrogation +thing, to some extent, was cast +upon us, because the military walked away +from it, and the F.B.I. walked away from +it, and so everybody came down on the +C.I.A.,"" he said. This is technically true, although +the F.B.I. ""walked away"" from interrogations +of terrorism suspects after its +director, Bob Mueller, heard complaints +from an agent, Ali Soufan, that the C.I.A.'s +interrogation methods amounted to ""borderline +torture."" John Helgerson told me +that he holds the the Pentagon, +and the White House equally responsible: +""They went arm in arm into it."" +Without a thorough public investigation, +it's difficult to assess the truth behind +such contradictory accusations. ""Everyone +says, 'It's over, it's known,' ""Nathaniel +Raymond, who works with the advocacy +group Physicians for Human Rights, told +me. ""But what is known? We still don't +know how many detainees were in the +black sites, or who they were. We don't +fully know the White House's role, or the +C.I.A.'s role. We need a full accounting, +especially as it relates to health professionals."" +The recently released Justice Department +memos, he noted, contain numerous +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +references to C.I.A. medical personnel +participating in coercive interrogation +sessions. ""They were the designers, the +legitimizers, and the implementers,"" +Raymond said. ""This is arguably the single +greatest medical-ethics scandal in +American history. We need answers."" +Some conservatives are also calling for +greater openness. Will Taft, the general +counsel to the State Department in the +Bush Administration, told me, ""There are +some twenty or thirty people whom the +My eyes each day thaw. +One day the water cuts off. +Then back on. +They are outside dogs— +which is to say, healthy +& victorious, purposeful +& one giant muscle +like the heart.

Those names have never been released. +The government should identify +all the people in the program and account +for them."" +The Senate Intelligence Committee +recently embarked on its own, closed-door +investigation of the torture program; Panetta +told me that he has been assured that +the committee members' work ""would be +about lessons learned, as opposed to going +after people."" So the C.I.A. is ""cooperating +with them, giving them whatever information +they need to try to conduct their +review."" He says that the committee has +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +already identified some ten million relevant +documents. ""It's going to take a +while,"" he said. +The Senate investigation will, among +other things, probe the question of torture's +efficacy. Dick Cheney has repeatedly +claimed that ""enhanced"" interrogations +yield results. Opponents say that torture is +counterproductive. Panetta is more agnostic. +He told me, ""The bottom line would +be this: Yes, important information was +gathered from these detainees. It provided +information that in fact was acted upon. +Was this the only way to obtain this information? +I think that will always be an open +question."" But he is certain that ""we did +pay a price for using those methods."" +A number of recently released documents +call into question the notion that the +C.I.A. played a passive role in relation to +torture policy. A 2008 report by the Senate +Armed Services Committee indicates +that the agency hired contract psychologists +who went on to design and implement +specific forms of abuse—such as +locking a detainee, doubled up, in a tiny, +airless cage—months before August, 2002, +when the Justice Department granted legal +authorization with its infamous ""torture +memo."" More troublingly, footnotes in the +Office of Legal Counsel memos suggest +that some C.I.A. interrogators may have +egregiously exceeded the legal boundaries +set down by the Justice Department and +the White House—which seemingly puts +them outside the legal safety zone demarcated +by Obama and Panetta. In 2002, the +Bush Administration authorized interrogators +to re-create the ostensibly safe waterboarding +techniques used in military +training. But, instead of limiting the sessions +to a maximum of two twenty-second +bouts of controlled drowning, as prescribed +in military training, the C.I.A. interrogators +forced one detainee to undergo at least +a hundred and eighty-three sessions, and +another at least eighty-three. And, instead +of using a very small amount of water, as +the Justice Department stipulated, the +C.I.A. interrogators subjected the detainees +to ""large volumes"" of water. The memos +quote Inspector General Helgersott's +finding, in his secret 2004 report on coercive +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +techniques, that the interrogators +amplified the pain deliberately, in order to +make the sensation of drowning ""more +poignant and convincing."" Helgerson also +found that the psychologists and interrogators +who designed the agency's protocols— +and who claimed that their judgments +were based on knowledge of military +standards—had ""probably misrepresented"" +their ""expertise."" In addition, the C.I.A.'s +Office of Medical Services found that +there was ""no reason to believe that applying +the waterboard with the frequency and +intensity with which it was used by the +psychologist/interrogators . . was either +efficacious or medically safe."" +In April, Panetta fired all the C.I.A.'s +contract interrogators, including the former +military psychologists who appear to +have designed the most brutal interrogation +techniques: James Mitchell and +Bruce Jessen. The two men, who ran a +consulting company, Mitchell, Jessen & +Associates, had recommended that interrogators +apply to detainees theories of +""learned helplessness"" that were based on +experiments with abused dogs. The firm's +principals reportedly billed the agency a +thousand dollars a day for their services. +""We saved some money in the deal, too!"" +Panetta said. (Remarkably, a month after +Obama took office the C.I.A. had signed +a fresh contract with the firm.) +According to ProPublica, the investigative +reporting group, Mitchell and Jessen's +firm, which in 2007 had a hundred +and twenty people on its staff, recently +closed its offices, in Spokane, Washington. +One employee was Deuce Martinez, +a former C.I.A. interrogator in the blacksite +program; Joseph Matarazzo, a former +president of the American Psychological +Association, was on the company's board. +(According to Kirk Hubbard, the former +head of the C.I.A.'s research and analysis +""I've put everything in your name in case my creditors come after me."" +• • +THE NEW YORKER, JUNE 22, 2009 59 +division, Matarazzo served on an agency +professional-standards board during the +time the interrogation program was set +up, but was not consulted about the +interrogations.) +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +Lawsuits against abusive contractors +remain a possibility, and any one of them +could expose a line of authorizations leading +directly up the chain of command at +the C.I.A., and into the Bush White +House. George Brent Mickum IV, a lawyer +representing Abu Zubaydah, a C.I.A. +prisoner who was repeatedly waterboarded, +said, ""I'd like to sue Mitchell and +Jessen in a minute."" (Mitchell was an adviser +on Zubaydah's interrogation.) After +Zubaydah was waterboarded, his lawyers +say, his mental state deteriorated, and he +has since been prescribed the antipsychotic +drug Haldol. +Few activists expect lawsuits against +the C.I.A. or its contractors to succeed. +But John Sifton, an attorney who specializes +in human-rights law, and who is part +of Zubaydah's legal team, notes that there +are other ways for the detainees' grievances +to become public. ""The act of prosecuting +the high-value detainees will be +the accountability process,"" Sifton said. +""It's impossible to try these detainees +without allowing them to air all the information +about their torture."" +Other legal actions threaten to expose +yet more secrets of the C.I.A.'s torture +program. A prosecutor appointed by +the Justice Department, John Durham, has +convened a grand jury in Washington to +weigh potential criminal charges against +C.I.A. officers who were involved in +the destruction of ninety-two videotapes +documenting the interrogations of Abu +Zubaydah and other detainees. Mickum +told me that he has met several times with +Durham, and believes that the scope of his +inquiry may have expanded to include a review +of whether the C.I.A. began using +brutal methods on Zubaydah before it received +written authorization from the Justice +Department. (This would provide an +extra motive for destroying the videotapes.) +Mickum said, ""I got the sense he was very +serious."" (Durham declined to comment.) +The A.C.L.U., meanwhile, is suing to get +access to classified descriptions of what was +on the destroyed videotapes. Last week, +Panetta filed an affidavit opposing the disclosure, +which he said ""could be expected +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +to result in exceptionally gave damage to +the national security."" Once again, he was +protecting Bush-era interrogation secrets. +Pressure is also coming from abroad. +In Italy, two dozen C.I.A. officers are on +trial in absentia for participating in a 2003 +rendition. Robert Seldon Lady, the agency's +station chief in Milan at the time, can +no longer travel to Italy without danger of +arrest, nor can the other C.I.A. officers +named in the case. Spain has opened a +criminal investigation of six Bush Administration +officials in connection with torture. +And in London a former rendition +victim is suing the British authorities. +After a British judge ruled that the +plaintiff; Binyam Mohammed, should be +given access to C.I.A. intelligence documents +that the agency shared with British +authorities, the Obama Administration +surprised liberals by pressuring the British +government to stop the disclosures. +Several other legal challenges to the +agency's interrogation program are working +their way through the U.S. court system. +A judge in California recently rejected +the Justice Department's claims of +blanket state secrecy in a case brought by +five rendition victims against Jeppesen +Dataplan, a subsidiary of Boeing, which +provided the flight plans for the C.I.A.'s +renditions. In a press conference in April, +Obama indicated that he had had second +thoughts about the Justice Department's +assertion of blanket state secrecy in the +case, but on June 12th the Administration +reasserted its original claim. +Earlier this month, Philip Mudd, +Obama's nominee for a top Homeland +Security post, withdrew from consideration +after it became clear that his Senate +confirmation would turn into a fight over +his previous role in the C.I.A.'s interrogation +program. Rahm Emanuel, speaking +of the many challenges posed by the torture +scandal, told me, ""It's a day-to-day— +I won't say struggle—but problem. There +are a lot of cases in the queue that require +response. Many of them. But I've seen the +President in the Situation Room, and I +know he wants to move forward."" +Panetta is already forging ahead on one +important reform: he plans to replace the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +abusive interrogation program with a legally +acceptable, non-coercive alternative. +A task force led by the Harvard Law +School professor Philip Heymann has +been advising him on a proposal to create +an elite U.S. government interrogation +team, staffed by some of the best C.I.A., +F.B.I., and military officers in the country, +and drawing on the advice of social scientists, +linguists, and other scholars. ""What +I'm pushing for is to establish a facility +where we develop a team of interrogators +trained in the latest techniques,"" Panetta +said. ""That's the one thing I'm worried +about, frankly. There just aren't that many +people who have the interrogation abilities +we're going to need."" Heymann describes +the effort to create ""the best non-coercive +interrogation team in the world"" as the +equivalent of ""a NASA-like, man-on-themoon +effort"" for human-intelligence gathering. +He said that members of his task +force have travelled to France, England, +Japan, Australia, and Israel, in order to +compile comparative information on what +interrogators do. ""We also went to the best +people in the U.S.,"" he added. +Panetta has many ambitions for his tenure +at the agency. He spoke to me of the +need for the C.I.A. to increase its foreignlanguage +skills, and to recruit officers of +more diverse backgrounds, who can more +easily infiltrate hostile parts of the world. +But, as Panetta sees it, the C.I.A.'s effort to +""disrupt, destroy, and dismantle"" Al Qaeda +remains its top priority. The agency continues +to acquire intelligence suggesting +that Al Qaeda is planning attacks on America, +he told me. ""We're conducting pretty +robust operations in Pakistan, and I think +we're doing a good job of trying to disrupt +Al Qaeda. But, clearly, that is a threat."" +The greatest danger, he said, is that Al +Qaeda will ""find other safe havens to go +to,"" in states such as Somalia and Yemen. +""Our mission is to make sure they can't find +a place to hide."" Finding and bringing +to justice Al Qaeda's leaders—in particular, +Osama bin Laden and Ayman al- +Zawahiri—""remains +a focal point,"" Panetta +said. ""It's not easy, as you can imagine."" +Last week, the Times reported on escalating +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762308 Date: 06/30/2015 +friction over jurisdiction between +Panetta and Dennis Blair, the National +Intelligence director.

""Here, +though,"" he said, gazing out over the +C.I.A.'s serene grounds, ""the decisions +come to me. And a lot of them involve life +and death.""

An official announcement is expected in the coming days. +The Obama administration will announce that Ross has been reassigned to another position in the White House. In his +new post, the former Mideast peace envoy under President Bill Clinton will deal primarily with regional issues related to +the peace process. +Washington insiders speculate that a number of reasons moved the administration to reassign Ross. One possibility is +Iran's persistent refusal to accept Ross as a U.S. emissary given the diplomat's Jewish background as well as his +purported pro-Israel leanings. Ross is known to maintain contacts with numerous senior officials in Israel's defense +establishment and the Israeli government. +Advertisement +Diplomatic sources in Jerusalem surmised that another possibility for Ross' ouster is his just-released book, ""Myths, +Illusions, and Peace - Finding a New Direction for America in the Middle East."" +Ross, who co-wrote the book with David Makovsky, a former journalist who is a fellow at the Washington Institute for +Near East Policy, argued against a linkage between the Palestinian issue and the West's policy against Iran's nuclear +ambitions. +Ross and Mokovsky also raised the possibility of military action against Iran. +""Tougher policies - either militarily or meaningful containment - will be easier to sell internationally and domestically if +we have diplomatically tried to resolve our differences with Iran in a serious and credible fashion,"" they wrote. +Another possible reason for the reshuffle could be Ross' dissatisfaction with his present standing in the State +Department, particularly given the fact that Washington's two other envoys to the region - George Mitchell, who is +overseeing the Mideast peace process; and Richard Holbrooke, who is dealing with Pakistan and Afghanistan - wield +great influence and are featured prominently. +A diplomatic source in Jerusalem speculated that perhaps Ross preferred to work for the National Security Agency, +which answers directly to President Barack Obama, and would thus be considered a more enhanced role. +Last year, Ross was an advisor to Obama's successful presidential campaign. Before Obama's inauguration, speculation +was rampant as to which job Ross would assume in the new administration. +On February 24, 2009, he was officially appointed as Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's advisor on the Persian Gulf and +special envoy to Iran. +http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1093058.html +100 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762336 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762336 Date: 06/30/2015 +, +101 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762336 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1874,C05762337,CLEARANCE REQUESTED - PRESIDENTIAL DELEGATION TO MONGOLIA,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-06-15T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/23_24_25_26/DOC_0C05762337/C05762337.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,FW: CLEARANCE REQUESTED - Presidential Delegation to Mongolia,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Perla, Laura; Carpenter, Margaret V.W.","Monday, June 15, 2009 11:34 AM",F-2014-20439,C05762337,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,fvi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762337 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Monday, June 15, 2009 11:34 AM +To: +Subject: FW: CLEARANCE REQUESTED - Presidential Delegation to Mongolia +fvi +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Monday, June 15, 2009 10:27 AM +To: Samuelson, Heather F; Mills, Cheryl D; Abedin, Huma +Cc: Perla, Laura; Carpenter, Margaret V.W. +Subject: RE: CLEARANCE REQUESTED - Presidential Delegation to Mongolia +Works. +From: Samuelson, Heather F +Sent: Monday, June 15, 2009 8:47 AM +To: Mills, Cheryl D; Abedin, Huma; Sullivan, Jacob J +Cc: Perla, Laura; Carpenter, Margaret V.W. +Subject: FW: CLEARANCE REQUESTED - Presidential Delegation to Mongolia +As an fyi, the following will be attending the Presidential Delegation to Mongolia: +1) Amb.

And he and I got to know each other at the +G20 summit. We are now in the process of planning the G8 summit that +Italy will be hosting. We emphasized the strong, historic ties between +the United States and Italy. Our bilateral relationship has been marked +by cooperation across the board. And I am extremely grateful for his +friendship. +129 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 +Just a couple of things that we specifically discussed. First of +all, I thanked the Prime Minister for his support of our policy of closing +Guantanamo. This is not just talk. Italy has agreed to accept three +specific detainees, and has also been part of the leadership in Europe +that today announced a framework in which European nations can accept +detainees. And that was something that I was very appreciative of. It +will give us an opportunity to create a lasting and durable international +legal framework for dealing with terrorism that I think is very important +on both sides of the Atlantic. +We discussed Afghanistan and Pakistan, where Italy has been a +critical part of the coalition that is trying to assist Afghanistan in +stabilizing itself and ensuring that it's not a safe haven for +terrorism. We had an extensive discussion about my interest in pursuing +nonproliferation as an important agenda for all people. And given that +I'll be visiting Russia before I visit Italy for the G8, Prime Minister +Berlusconi, who has strong relationships with the Russians, was able to +offer some insight in terms of how to approach reductions in nuclear +arsenals. And that hopefully is going to be a topic at the G8 summit, as +well. +And in addition to discussing the general situation in the world +economy, which obviously will be a central topic of the G8, we also +discussed specifically the issue of food security and how G8 nations can +assist people who are in most desperate poverty to ensure that they're not +slipping into hunger and further poverty. And that is going to be a major +topic of the G8 summit. And so I'm very appreciative of the leadership +that Prime Minister Berlusconi has shown on that front. +So overall I am very grateful to Prime Minister Berlusconi's +leadership, his consistent friendship towards the United States. We have +some of the strongest bilateral relations in the world. I am confident +that that will continue as long as both of us are occupying our positions. +And so thank you very much for taking the time to visit. +PRIME MINISTER BERLUSCONI: (As translated.) First of all, I would +like to thank President Obama for his welcome and for the possibility +offered us to provide our perspective, our opinions on many of the most +difficult and hardest issues at the international level. And we've +discussed, as he already briefed you, many of the issues and the topics, +and we went through in a detailed manner the three days of the G8 +summit. We want this G8 to reach concrete solutions. And we want to +reach concrete solutions on many extremely important issues. +Clearly, the first issue is the world economy, the economic crisis +and how to get out of this crisis. And we also discussed the work that +our ministers of economy are carrying out right now to try and develop a +body of principles and to prevent similar situations from happening, +similar situations to the one we are experiencing right now. +130 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 +We both agreed on the fact that the G8 will certainly not be able to +produce this body of rules, but this is going to be just one of the steps +leading to that drafting of rules. There will be then the G20 summit in +Pittsburgh, which will work on it, but the hope is to finally reach a body +of rules which can be shared by everybody which -- which are not going to +affect or hinder the free expansion of the economy and trade. +And we discussed two important issues. One of them, which will be +discussed in L'Aquila as well, is food security, as President Obama has +already said. We hope that the countries there will make concrete efforts +and concrete proposals. The United States has already promised to +increase the aid to other countries and they're going to make in the next +three years huge amounts of money available. We try and will push the +other countries in the G8, trying to persuade them to do the same. +And another important issue is that of climate change. And another +important achievement we are aiming at is to reduce CO2 emissions -- +something, however, which has to be contributed to by all countries and +not only a limited number of them. And since the Doha Round has reached a +stop, we hope that by inviting Lamy, who is the director of the WTO, to +attend the G8 summit, that we can try and give another push to the Doha +Round, hoping to achieve positive results. +Probably what I forgot to mention up to now is that the meeting in +L'Aquila is not going to be confined to the G8 countries. The next day, +the second day, will be G8-plus-6. The major economies of the world will +be there; India, China, South Africa, Mexico, Brazil, and Egypt will +attend the second day of meetings. There will be the major economies +forum with the participation of South Korea, Indonesia, and Australia, and +then there is another meeting which will be attended also by the +Netherlands, Spain, and Denmark -- and we are going to have before all of +these meetings together. +The dinner will be attended also by the representatives of the main +international organizations. And the third day, we are going to have the +President of the African Union, the representatives of the main African +organizations, together with the representatives of some of the main +African countries. We are going to discuss the development of this +continent and the issue of hunger in that area. +And I can't but thank President Obama and express my warmest felt +appreciation to him for -- and this position is coming from a person +that's been long enough in international politics to chair for the third +time the G8 summit; the first one was in the 1994; the second one in 2001; +and now the third one -- I want to express my appreciation for his deep +knowledge and precision and accuracy with which he discusses all of the +issues. +And the positions that he expresses are not only innovative positions +looking at a different future, but they're always very concrete and +absolutely based on common sense. And it is extremely comforting and a +131 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 +pleasure to see that the destiny of the biggest democracy in the world is +in very good hands. +PRESIDENT OBAMA: I hope my staff all caught +that. (Laughter.) Gibbs, write that down. (Laughter.) +Let me call on a couple people. Steve Thomma, McClatchy. There you +are. +Mr. President, on Iran, does the disputed election results +affect -- there's been violence in the street -- in any way change your +willingness to meet with Mr. Ahmadinejad without preconditions? And also, +do you have anything to say, any message to send to people who are on the +streets protesting, who believe their votes were stolen and who are being +attacked violently? +PRESIDENT OBAMA: Obviously all of us have been watching the news +from Iran. And I want to start off by being very clear that it is up to +Iranians to make decisions about who Iran's leaders will be; that we +respect Iranian sovereignty and want to avoid the United States being the +issue inside of Iran, which sometimes the United States can be a handy +political football -- or discussions with the United States. +Having said all that, I am deeply troubled by the violence that I've +been seeing on television. I think that the democratic process -- free +speech, the ability of people to peacefully dissent -- all those are +universal values and need to be respected. And whenever I see violence +perpetrated on people who are peacefully dissenting, and whenever the +American people see that, I think they're, rightfully, troubled. +My understanding is, is that the Iranian government says that they +are going to look into irregularities that have taken place. We weren't +on the ground, we did not have observers there, we did not have +international observers on hand, so I can't state definitively one way or +another what happened with respect to the election. But what I can say is +that there appears to ba a sense on the part of people who were so hopeful +and so engaged and so committed to democracy who now feel betrayed. And I +think it's important that, moving forward, whatever investigations take +place are done in a way that is not resulting in bloodshed and is not +resulting in people being stifled in expressing their views. +Now, with respect to the United States and our interactions with +Iran, I've always believed that as odious as I consider some of President +Ahmadinejad's statements, as deep as the differences that exist between +the United States and Iran on a range of core issues, that the use of +tough, hard-headed diplomacy -- diplomacy with no illusions about Iran and +the nature of the differences between our two countries -- is critical +when it comes to pursuing a core set of our national security interests, +specifically, making sure that we are not seeing a nuclear arms race in +the Middle East triggered by Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon; making sure +that Iran is not exporting terrorist activity. Those are core interests +not just to the United States but I think to a peaceful world in general. +132 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 +We will continue to pursue a tough, direct dialogue between our two +countries, and we'll see where it takes us. But even as we do so, I think +it would be wrong for me to be silent about what we've seen on the +television over the last few days. And what I would say to those people +who put so much hope and energy and optimism into the political process, I +would say to them that the world is watching and inspired by their +participation, regardless of what the ultimate outcome of the election +was. And they should know that the world is watching. +And particularly to the youth of Iran, I want them to know that we in +the United States do not want to make any decisions for the Iranians, but +we do believe that the Iranian people and their voices should be heard and +respected. +PRIME MINISTER BERLUSCONI: ANSA. +(As translated.) President Obama, after this meeting with Prime +Minister Berlusconi, what do you expect, in concrete terms, from the +relationship between United States and Italy? And to Prime Minister +Berlusconi, you had very strong relations with President George W. +Bush. Do you expect and do you hope to build the same type of relations +with President Obama, as well? +PRIME MINISTER BERLUSCONI: I took an oath of gratitude towards +United States, which gave me freedom and which gave my country dignity +after World War II. So I'm here to cooperate with the President of the +United States. I'm here to cooperate with President Obama, as I +cooperated with President Clinton and as I did with President Bush. +So if I can express a hope, I really hope we can build a direct and +friendly relationship with President Obama. I would be more than happy to +do so. And facts will tell. +But anyway, I think we had a good start. +PRESIDENT OBAMA: Absolutely. We've had a very good start. What I +expect from the Prime Minister is an honest, frank sharing of views and a +recognition that the United States and Italy share common values, common +interests. Our economies have very strong commercial ties. And if we're +acting on those mutual interests, then I have no doubt that we'll continue +to see strong cooperation. +As I said before, Prime Minister Berlusconi's assistance on our +efforts to close Guantanamo is very important to us. I have to say, by +the way, that Bermuda has done us a great service, as well, on that front, +and I'm grateful to them. +When it comes to Afghanistan and Pakistan, we are part of the same +coalition that wants to make sure that the Afghan government is able and +strong to sustain development for the Afghan people, but also to make sure +that they're not serving as a safe haven for extremists. +133 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 +When it comes to the world economy, I think all of us have an +interest in improving the kinds of financial regulations that will prevent +the kinds of crises that we saw happening most recently. +So, across the board, I think we have a host of common interests. In +addition to liking Prime Minister Berlusconi personally, our peoples like +each other and recognize that we have shared interests. And that, I +think, will make the path for continued cooperation that much easier. +(After translation.) I must say, my answers sound very elegant in +Italian. (Laughter.) +Steve Collinson. +Thank you, Mr. President. Of the conditions that Prime Minister +Netanyahu laid out yesterday for a Palestinian state, the basis for +negotiation, do you think they will likely prove a stumbling block, given +the broadly negative reaction from the Arab states and the Palestinians? +PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, first of all, I think it's important not to +immediately assess the situation based on commentary the day after a +speech. I think any time an Israeli Prime Minister makes a statement, the +immediate reaction tends to be negative on one side. If the other side is +making a statement, oftentimes the reaction is negative in Israel. +Overall, I thought that there was positive movement in the Prime +Minister's speech. He acknowledged the need for two states. There were a +lot of conditions, and obviously working through the conditions on +Israel's side for security, as well as the Palestinian side for +sovereignty and territorial integrity and the capacity to have a +functioning, prosperous state, that's exactly what negotiations are +supposed to be about. But what we're seeing is at least the possibility +that we can restart serious talks. +Now, I've been very clear that, from the United States' perspective, +Israel's security is non-negotiable. We will stand behind their +defense. I've also made very clear that both sides are going to have to +move in some politically difficult ways in order to achieve what is going +to be in the long-term interests of the Israelis and the Palestinians and +the international community. +On the Israeli side, that means a cessation of settlements. And +there is a tendency to try to parse exactly what this means, but I think +the parties on the ground understand that if you have a continuation of +settlements that, in past agreements, have been categorized as illegal, +that's going to be an impediment to progress. On the Palestinian side, +whether it's the Palestinian Authority or other groups like Hamas that +claim to speak for the Palestinians, a recognition of the Quartet +principles, ensuring that there's a recognition of Israel's right to +exist, making sure that past agreements are abided to, that there's an end +134 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 +to incitement against Israel and an end to violence against Israel. Those +are necessary pillars of any serious agreement that's to be reached. +And those pillars have to be supported by the Arab states, because +Israel's security concerns extend beyond simply the Palestinian +Territories; they extend to concerns that they have in a whole host of +neighbors where there's perceived and often real hostility towards +Israel's security. So I'm glad that Prime Minister Netanyahu made the +speech. The United States will continue to try to be as honest as +possible to all sides in this dispute to indicate the degree to which it's +in everybody's interests to move in a new direction. And I think it can +be accomplished, but it's going to require a lot of work and a partnership +with key countries like Italy in order to help the parties come together +and recognize their own interests. +You discussed during the meeting the crisis, the economic +crisis, you're going to discuss at the G8. The package of measures you +are discussing right now, can this be a kind of basis for the next +meetings -- G8 and G20? +PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, our respective finance ministers, not just +Italy's and the United States', but all the G8 members', have been meeting +diligently. They've put forward a framework that will be discussed and +hopefully ratified at the G8. That will provide a broad set of +principles. +Now, the United States is putting forward some very specific +regulatory reforms that are going to make sure that we don't find +ourselves in this position again, that improves oversight, ensures that +banks aren't taking risks with highly leveraged money that can result in +systemic collapse, that consumers and investors are protected more +effectively. +So we're going to have a lot of work to do. It's going to be a big, +complex piece of legislation. Different countries are going to have +different needs. Prime Minister Berlusconi was indicating to me that the +banking system in Italy has not been under the same kinds of pressures as +the banking system in the United States and some other European countries. +But I think the general principle -- that we're going to have +improved oversight, better practices, and that there's some coordination +and information-sharing between countries on issues like tax havens, for +example, so that you don't have global capital avoiding more stringent +rules by going to countries with weaker rules -- I think that's going to +be something that all G8 members affirm, and we very much appreciate Prime +Minister Berlusconi's leadership on this issue. +PRIME MINISTER BERLUSCONI: I would like to add to this that our +ministers of finance have been working on all of these issues and +packages. In particular they paid attention, for instance, to corporate +governments and rules for transparency and a regulation of the financial +sectors, accounting rules, and as President Obama has also mentioned, +135 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762382 Date: 06/30/2015 +also, the issue of tax havens, to try and prevent those situations from +happening again. And the idea is to work out a set of rules and +regulations which can prevent situations and conditions like the ones +we've experienced which have led -- from happening, experience that is to +-- which led first to the financial crisis and then to the economic crisis +that we are experiencing right now. +PRESIDENT OBAMA: Thank you.

Then there were massive protests that filled the streets, often +marching in dignified but ominous silence; there was bloodshed as nervous security men with guns faced +determined but unarmed crowds; there were sullen mourning parades;20there were catchy chants and +ritual calls of ""Down with the shah!""; at night the rooftops rang with shouts of allahu akbar. +You need only change ""shah"" to ""dictator,"" and you have a description of what is happening in Iran +today. +But there is one very big difference. Thirty years ago, Iran had a charismatic cleric named Ayatollah +Khomeini who had a refined sense of strategy and a willingness to risk everything for the cause he +represented. On the other side was Mohammed Reza Shah, who had been on the throne for some 37 +years and who commanded one of the most powerful military and security regimes in the world. On the +surface it appeared to be an uneven battle — guns against turbans — but the ruler with the guns wavered +and the turbans grew in size and confidence until the old order collapsed. +Today the nominal leader of the opposition forces is a reformed radical, Mir Hossein Mousavi, who is +notably lacking in personal charisma. On the other side is the constitutional Leader, Ayatollah +IChamene' i, who is widely perceived as a cautious political animal with limited qualifications for his +religious post and who compensates for his own lack of charisma by manipulation of the political system +and the institutions most loyal to him — particularly the politically minded clergy and the powerful +security forces, including the Revolutionary Guards. +Neither of these men seems to be fully in control of their own forces, let alone the situation. The +fraudulent election defeat of Mousavi was a triggering event, but the energy behind these unprecedented +demonstrations is due more to the sense of outrage and betrayal at the gross manipulation of numbers by +the regime than it is about any undying devotion to Mousavi. Yesterday Mousavi ordered that people +stay home in face of a conflicting pro-regime demonstration. They marched anyway (and the daughter of +former president Rafsanjani joined them and urged them on). Mousavi then ""ordered"" everyone to +march the following day (which they were probably going to do with or without his orders). +IChamene'i announced the ""divine assessment"" of the election outcome — even before it would probably +have been physically possible to count the more than 40 million ballots. Then, in the face of mass protests, +he ordered an investigation of the results by the Guardian Council— the same organization that was +responsible for managing the election in the first place. No one believed him in either case, and no one +expected anything of importance from the Guardian Council. Khamene'i has ordered peace and +reconciliation. No one paid any attention. +I deliberately did not mention president-elect Ahmadinejad. After celebrating his ""victory,"" he went off +to a largely symbolic meeting in Moscow. He seems to be out of the decision loop and more of a passive +player than a major actor in these events. +So who is calling the shots? Mousavi seems to be running along after the crowd, not leading it. But that is +probably all that is required to keep the protest in motion. +On the other side, the very little evidence we have suggests that the important decisions are being made +by the ultra-conservative leadership of the Revolutionary Guards, whose political role has ballooned over +the past decade, perhaps in cooperation with their extremist counterparts in the clergy. They are utterly +ruthless and ideologically fueled. +New York Times columnist Nick Kristoff reminded us several days ago (see blog item on June 15 below) +at the end of the day, as I saw at Tiananmen 20 years ago, when Might and Right do battle, it's often prudent +to bet on Might, at least in the short run. +The regime seems to have miscalculated badly. They seemed to believe that a sudden coup — the +announcement of dramatic election results followed by a show of force — would intimidate and silence the +opposition and consolidate their control. That is perhaps more understandable if the decisions were being +made by military leaders who tend to see the battle in Manichaean terms, rather than politicians such as +IChamene'i who are accustomed to seeing shades of gray. In any event, it b ackfired and they now have a +much larger crisis on their hands than if they had simply arranged for Ahmadinejad to win by a slim +margin (which was at least believable). +All parties are now in uncharted territory. A significant portion of the Iranian population seems to have +concluded that their social contract with the rulers — accepting Islamic rule in return for a respectful +regard for the opinion of the governed, an Islamic Republic — is no longer valid. They do not trust their +rulers. +The rulers, whose support has been declining for years in the face of their own inept management of the +country, are increasingly replacing popular support with repression.

Since President Obama named her as his pick for +Secretary of State in November, Clinton's transition staff and the State Department had been working with members of the American +Foreign Service Association and the group GLIFAA (Gays & Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies) on what could be done to extend +benefits to domestic partners of diplomats serving abroad. +At her very first senior staff meeting Clinton instructed the State Department to review whether she had the authority to extend +benefits to same-sex domestic partners. About a week later a gay employee asked Clinton during a town hall with employees to +eliminate discrimination against same sex partners. The Secretary of State drew loud applause when she said the issue was ""of real +concern"" to her, and that she was already working on it. +Several weeks ago, a memo to employees from Clinton instituting the changes was leaked to the press. Clinton's aides at the time said +the memo was a draft, and that Clinton couldn't change policies without an ""interagency review"" of the issue to make sure State +Department actions wouldn't negatively affect other agencies. But the memo seemed to light a fire under the administration, which +quickly caught up to Clinton's lead. +12 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762432 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762432 Date: 06/30/2015 +Still, the health benefits announced Wednesday for same sex partners of non-State Department civil employees is a drop in the bucket +compared to the long list of other benefits the State Department extended to the gay partners of US diplomats serving abroad. In +addition to health benefits and access to medical and emergency evacuation, domestic partners will also get diplomatic passports, +training at the Foreign Service Institute and housing allowances. Same sex partners will get the same preference for US embassy jobs +that spouses currently enjoy, and the State Department will now work with foreign governments to provide same-sex domestic +partners, to the extent possible, with diplomatic visas, work permits and other privileges, including diplomatic immunity. The State +Department will even pay for them to fly home if a relative is gravely ill. Few of these benefits are currently offered to domestic +partners. +Although the Foreign Service has difference rules and regulations which allow the State Department to do more in the first place, +Clinton extended the full range of legally available benefits and allowances to same sex partners of members of the Foreign Service. +In a statement issued Thursday acknowledging the support partners provide to overseas posts, Clinton said, ""domestic partners of +federal employees have for too long been treated unequally."" +Clinton knows the move is also good business. Today's US diplomats serving around the world are increasingly having to shed their +pinstripe suits and get dirty in the field, which requires a whole different skill set. These days the State Department is competing for +the same Arabic and Farsi speakers and technology gurus as top notch multinational companies, where domestic partner benefits and +allowances are increasingly the norm.

Thanks! +• UPMC's Relationship with Italy: +UPMC has a long and successful track record in Italy. More than a decade ago, UPMC entered into a public- +private partnership in Italy, and in collaboration with the region of Sicily and two existing +hospitals, established a major transplant and specialty care hospital. The construction of the +18 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762435 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762435 Date: 06/30/2015 +facility, (""ISMETT"") was funded by the government and UPMC , which oversaw the +construction and continues to manage it. It has been a great success - bringing transplantation and +specialized services to Sicily, reducing costs to the nation of ""exporting"" patients who need transplants, and as +an economic driver for the region. Based on the success of ISMETT, UPMC is now working with +the Italian government and an alliance of educational institutions to construct RIMED, a Biomedical Research +and Biotechnology Center (BRBC) outside of Palermo, which will focus on sparking a +biotechnology/regenerative medicine sector in the region. (Please see attached RiMED document.) The +government has appropriated 330 million Euros for this initiative. Further, UPMC is a consultant to the Italian +Government and is in negotiations with the regional governments in Milan and Florence. Our international +offices are in Rome. +• UPMC's Relationship with Prime Minister Berlusconi: +(a.) UPMC has had a long term and stable relationship in Italy over the past ten years, including two +governments led by Prime Minister Berlusconi. He is knowledgeable about UPMC, as is Giarmi Letta, Italian +Council of Ministry Under Secretary. +(b.) The RiMED initiative was conceived during his previous term of office and in 2005, the letter of intent for +RiMED was personally signed by Prime Minister Berlusconi and Mr. Jeffrey A. Romoff, President of UPMC. +(c.) It was under the Berlusconi administration that the decision was made to fund RiMED and 330 million +Euros were appropriated for this purpose. Mr. Romoff participated in a press conference at Palazzo Chigi +with the Prime Minister. +(d.) Recently, because of the devastating earthquake and the economic downturn, the resources to fund +RiMED have become constrained, but it is felt this is simply an issue of an unexpected contingency, rather than +any lack of interest and support. +(e.) Mr. Romoff has met with Prime Minister Berlusconi several times and is fluent in Italian. +(f .) Many of the significant political figures in Sicily are very closely associated with the Prime Minister and +his party and the importance of UPMC to the Region and potentially to Italy is reinforced. +• UPMC's Proposed 21CB: +We are pursuing funding for a flexible, multi-product biologics facility in Southwestern PA, to develop and +manufacture vaccines and therapeutic drugs as a defense against our nation's gravest threat: the Pandemic +spread of diseases and diseases used by bioterrorists as weapons of mass destruction. Thanks +to the tremendous help from our partners, Governor Rendell and Senator Arlen Specter, we have garnered +wide spread support from many across the executive Branch and Congress including Vice President Biden and +HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius. We will have the opportunity to brief DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano on +June 15th. The economic impact to the region would be unparalleled, resulting in approximately 1000 direct +jobs and up to 6000 indirect jobs, all the while reducing production costs to the U. S. Government by 80 +%. (Please see attached 21st Century Biodefense document.) +• UPMC's Proposal for the Italian Government: +10 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762435 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762435 Date: 06/30/2015 +Prime Minister Berlusconi is very much tied to the American agenda and would likely be interested in +developing and funding a companion vaccine manufacturing facility- (600 million Euros,) under UPMC +management, which would serve not only to enhance the strategic defense relationship between Italy and the +United States, but also demonstrate that the Prime Minister is responsive to the increasing public concern +regarding H1N1. It can be an economic driver to both countries, as well. Italy has close ties in the +Mediterranean basin and northern Africa, in particular, and producing vaccines for these countries is desirable +in keeping with the newUS. Global Health Care Initiative. Thus, for both substantive and strategic/political +reasons, the 21CB vaccine facility should be exceedingly attractive to Italy. +As importantly, the economic gains for UPMC and the western region of Pennsylvania (Pittsburgh) are +very significant. As the largest employer in western Pa. , the Region depends on UPMC's +economic vitality. Excess revenue (profits) gained from exporting the intellectual and managerial capital +cultivated and developed in Pittsburgh to Italy and abroad, serve to create jobs and growth at home. Given +the unique expertise of UPMC and the international focus on health care reform, this is potentially a multi- +billion dollar export industry bring both funds and prestige to the United States. +Nora Toiv +Office of the Secretary +202-647-8633 +20 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762435 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1912,C05762436,GOOD NEWS!,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-06-19T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/23_24_25_26/DOC_0C05762436/C05762436.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,FW: Good news!,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Reines, Philippe I","Friday, June 19, 2009 4:28 PM",F-2014-20439,C05762436,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Yeah!,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762436 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Friday, June 19, 2009 4:28 PM +To: +Subject: FW: Good news! +Yeah! +From: Adler, Caroline E (Special Use Only) +Sent: Friday, June 19, 2009 4:11 PM +Cc: Reines, Philippe I +Subject: Good news! +Hi guys — Just wanted to share the exciting news that Andrew Shapiro was confirmed today as Assistant Secretary for +Political-Military Affairs! +Also confirmed today: Bonnie D.

Jeff +June 20, 2009 +The Myth of the $12 Million Uighur +. By STUART BECK +CONGRATULATIONS Palau. Our little country, a group of islands 500 miles east of the Philippines, has become, if only +briefly, a household word. President Obama, much admired in Palau, asked our new president, Johnson Toribiong, to do +the United States a favor: Please accept, as refugees, a group of innocent Chinese Muslims. They are not anti-American +terrorists, but victims of human rights violations, who landed at Guantanamo Bay for seven years. Innocent, stateless, +harmless. +President Toribiong, a lawyer trained at the University of Washington and a highly regarded litigator, told President +Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that he needed to assure his people that the Uighurs were indeed harmless, +and could be integrated into Palau's small, diverse and friendly culture. Assuming that this due diligence brought +satisfactory results, Palau would be pleased to give the refugees temporary residence. Last weekend, he dispatched a +number of officials to Guantanamo to interview the Uighurs and review their records. +One would have thought that this positive gesture of friendship from a staunch American ally would have been applauded, +at least in the United States. Instead, for reasons that are beyond me, unattributed leaks and unsubstantiated rumors have +twisted Palau's act of decency into another grab for dollars by a cunning third-world country. In breaking the story that +Palau was amenable to President Obama's request, the Associated Press reported that two anonymous State Department +officials had linked Palau's acceptance of the Uighurs to a $200 million payoff. +Almost immediately, much of the news media took the bait, did the math and asserted that Palau was getting nearly $12 +million dollars per Uighur. Within a day or two, The Wall Street Journal was pontificating against a shakedown. +Before the story gets too far out of hand, let's consider a few facts. It is true that the United States and Palau have an +economic relationship. Palau has been receiving American aid since it was wrested from the Japanese in 1944. (Over the +past 15 years, this has averaged about $56 million a year.) This aid has come with strings; as the United States has always +insisted that the Palauan government be ready to promptly turn over land for bases should the security of the United +States or Palau require it. +B6 +In 1994, the two countries agreed to a 50-year option that allows the United States to use Palau for military purposes. That +agreement's economic terms expire in October 2009, and a new economic package for the remaining 35 years is in the +works — and has been for some time. But there has never been a mention of $200 million. And no one has even hinted at +linking the deal to Palau's acceptance of the Uighurs. The United States simply offered to pay relocation costs for the +Uighurs of less than $90,000 per person to cover transportation, food, housing and medical help until the men can get +oriented and get jobs. +Palau is a small and peaceful community. Its constitution bans weapons of all kinds. Capital crimes are virtually unknown. +Social life revolves around the family. Children wander from house to house. Could anyone believe that the leaders of +Palau would risk the safety and serenity of their modern Eden in exchange for money? Is it plausible that these close-knit +people would countenance the presence of terrorists in their midst? I can assure you the answer is no. +Last week, the Palauans lowered their flags to half-staff in memory of Sgt. Jasper Obakrairur, a Palauan who joined the +United States Marines and died on June 1 helping to root out the Taliban in Afghanistan. He was the fourth Palauan +serviceman to die in recent years, following his fallen comrades in American uniform Cpl. JayGee Meluat, Cpl. +Meresebang Ngiraked and Specialist Philton Ueld.

I will separately send their initial letter. +I have talked with Ambassador Christian Kennedy about this scurrilous and unrepresentative attack, made just before the +Prague Conference is to begin. We agree it emanates from two related causes. First, it was instigated by Sam Dubbin, a +class action lawyer in Miami who has spent the better part of ten years trying to get Congress to overturn the agreements +I negotiated on behalf of the Clinton Administration, which obtained over $8 billion for Holocaust survivors and other +victims of Nazi persecution around the world. He wants to be free to sue the very companies who paid these sums, in +return for getting assurances of the U.S. government would do all it could to provide ""legal peace"" from future suits. +Several federal courts have upheld our agreements. He has lobbied for legislation last year and again this year. Indeed, +Chairman Frank held a hearing in 2008 on this matter. +The second basis of the letter is a long-standing dispute between some survivors against the Jewish Claims Conference, +based in New York City, which was officially designated in the 1950s by the governments of Germany and Israel to be the +negotiator with the German government on behalf of Jewish Holocaust survivors. The bulk of the $60 billion paid by the +German government since the 1950s in reparations is passed through the Claims Conference, which then distributes it to +survivors. Their complaints range from a lack of transparency in their operations to the 80%-20% split, by which 80% of +their proceeds go directly to survivors and 20% to various Jewish organizations for projects of remembrance and +education about the Holocaust. +My association with the Jewish Claims Conference, which was fully disclosed during my vetting, is very tangential. I +volunteered to lead their once a year negotiation with the German government to improve pensions for survivors, to +provide new services like home care, and to increased the population of survivors covered by the German government. I +have done this once, in March of this year, with, by the way, major breakthroughs for survivors. None of these issues is +involved in the Prague Conference, and the German government has no problem with my participation. That is the only +involvement I have with the Claims Conference. I do not participate in their governing bodies, and have no hand in their +allocation or other decisions. I will not be involved again, until their next negotiation, in 2010, unless I decide not to +continue my voluntary negotiation for them. +Moreover, the letter is unbelievably inaccurate. While I have only been involved for several weeks as the official head of +the delegation, it is grossly inaccurate for them to allege that survivors have been left out of the process. Ambassador +Kennedy has done remarkable outreach to the survivor community for many months, in preparation for the Prague +Conference, and survivors are well represented on the Delegation. In the period since I have been officially involved, I +have met with the German Insurance Association to see if they would make a contribution for the social needs of +survivors; have talked with Judah Gribetz, the Special Master for the Swiss bank settlement, to see if any of the extra +sums they will have left over can be given to survivors; have worked to get language in the Terezin Declaration to +encourage countries to set up special funds for survivors and to use heirless property to assist them. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762459 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762459 Date: 06/30/2015 +Ambassador Kennedy is preparing a press statement to be used if there is a question about the letter and the Haaretz +letter at the daily State Department press briefing. +Best wishes, +Stu Eizenstat +From: Menachem Rosensaft +Sent: Sunday, June 21, 2009 8:11 PM +To: hebrish +Subject: Your June 22, 2009 article on the Prague Conference +Dear Mr. Liphshiz, +With respect to your article yesterday on the utterly unwarranted personal attack on Ambassador Stuart +Eizenstat by a group of American Holocaust survivors, you should be aware that the leadership of the largest +organization of survivors and descendants of survivors in the United States, the American Gathering of Jewish +Holocaust Survivors and Their Descendants, in no way shares these sentiments. On the contrary, we hold +Ambassador Eizenstat in the highest esteem, know him to be a man of the highest integrity and ethical +standards, and are deeply grateful to him for everything he has done and continues to do on behalf of the +survivors over many years. +Neither David Schaecter nor Leo Rechter speak for anyone other than the groups they represent, and Mr. +Rechter's statement that survivors have ""no confidence"" in Ambassador Eizenstat is, viewed most charitably, a +gross overstatement in that he seeks to attribute his personal prejudices to the many thousands of survivors who +do not share his views and who have never authorized him to speak in their name. The lives of thousands upon +thousands of survivors throughout the world have been made easier over the past 15 years thanks to +Ambassador Eizenstat's tireless work on their behalf. I cannot think of anyone more appropriate to head the +U.S. delegation to the Prague conference. +The fact is that Ambassador Eizenstat's only association with the Claims Conference is a once a year, three day +negotiation as a volunteer with the German government for the interests of the survivors. The first such +negotiation took place earlier this year in March and resulted in 13,000 survivors who had previously been +turned down becoming eligible for for reparations for the first time, and in the improvement in existing pension +payments to survivors totaling over $50 million. Moreover, the specific pension issues for which he +volunteered to negotiate with the German government bear no relationship to the issues being covered by the +Prague Conference. +During the Clinton Administration, Ambassador Eizenstat was the Special Representative of the President and +Secretary of State on Holocaust era issues and the lead negotiator on such issues with the Swiss, German, +Austrian and French governments, as well as with various Eastern and Central European governments. In that +capacity, he obtained over $8 billion dollars in compensation and restitution for Holocaust survivors, including +payments to slave and forced laborers, the return of thousands of Jewish communal and private properties, the +payments of tens of thousands of previously undisclosed bank accounts, the recovery of hundreds of pieces of +looted art, and the payments on thousands of insurance policies. Indeed, Ambassador Eizenstat is more +responsible than any other single person for placing the issue of justice for Holocaust survivors on the +international agenda more than half a century after the end of World War II. He has also headed the U.S. +delegations to every one of the four previous international conferences dealing with Holocaust era assets, +beginning with the 1997 London Conference on Nazi Gold. Messrs. Schaecter and Rechter are well aware of +all this, and the fact that they chose to engage in an ad hominem attack against Ambassador Eizenstat one week +before the opening of the Prague conference - his appointment as head of the U.S. delegation was publicly +announced weeks ago - is unseemly and disingenuous in the extreme. +34 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762459 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762459 Date: 06/30/2015 +By way of introduction, I am vice president of the American Gathering of Jewish Holocaust Survivors and +Their Descendants (I am the son of two survivors of Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen), and I am a member of the +U.S. delegation to the Prague conference.

This challenges the notion that +Ahmadinejad's victory was due to the massive participation of a +previously silent conservative majority. +•In a third of all provinces, the official results would require that +Ahmadinejad took not only all former conservative voters, all former +centrist voters, and all new voters, but also up to 44% of former +Reformist voters, despite a decade of conflict between these two +groups. +•In 2005, as in 2001 and 1997, conservative candidates, and +Ahmadinejad in particular, were markedly unpopular in rural areas. +That the countryside always votes conservative is a myth. The claim +that this year Ahmadinejad swept the board in more rural provinces +flies in the face of these trends. +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 3 +1. Irregularities in Voter Turnout +Two provinces show a turnout of over 100% and four more show a turnout of +over 90%. Regional variations in participation have disappeared. There is no +correlation between the increase in participation, and the swing to +Ahm adinejad. +Firstly, across the board there is a massive increase in turnout, with several +provinces increasing their participation rate by nearly 75%. This increase +results in substantially less variation in turnout between provinces, with the +standard deviation amongst provincial turnouts falling by just over 23% since +2005. The 2005 results show a substantial turnout gap, with seven provinces +recording turnout below 60%, and ten above 70%. In 2009, only two were +below 70% and 24 were above 80%. In fact, 21 out of 30 provinces had +turnouts within 5% of 83%. The data seems to suggest that regional variations +in participation have suddenly disappeared. +This makes the evident lack of any sort of correlation between the provinces +that saw an increase in turnout and those that saw a swing to Ahmadinejad +(Fig.1) all the more unusual. There is no significant correlation between the +increase in participation for a given province and the swing to Ahmadinejad +(Fig.1). This lack of correlation makes the argument that an increase in +participation by a previously silent conservative majority won the election for +Ahmadinejad somewhat problematic. +Furthermore, there are concerns about the numbers themselves. Two +provinces, Mazandaran and Yazd, have results which indicate that more votes +were cast on 12 June than there were eligible voters and that four more +provinces had turnouts in the mid-nineties. +In a country where allegations of 'tombstone voting' — the practice200f using the +identity documents of the deceased to cast additional ballots — are both longstanding +and widespread, this result is troubling but perhaps not unexpected. +This problem did not start with Ahmadinejad; according to official statistics +gathered by the International institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance +in Stockholm, there were 12.9% more registered voters at the time of +Mohammed Khatami's 2001 victory than there were citizens of voting age. +In conclusion, a number of aspects of the reported turnout figures are +problematic. The massive increases from 2005, the collapse of regional +variations, and the absence of any clear correlation between increases in +turnout and increased support for any candidate on their own make the results +problematic. +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 4 +Source: Ministry of Interior Publications 2005 and 2009 (See appendix) +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 5 +2. Where did Ahmadinejad's New Votes Come From? +According to the official Ministry of Interior voting data (see Appendix), +Mahmud Ahmadinejad has increased the conservative vote by 113% +compared to the 2005 election. There is little correlation in provincial level +results between the increase in turnout and the swing to the President, +challenging the notion that a previously silent conservative majority has come +out to support him. Interestingly, in 1.0 out of 30 provinces, mainly former +Mehdi Karrubi strongholds, the official data suggests that Ahmadinejad +received not only the votes of all former non-voters and former Rafsanjani +voters, but also took up to 44% of the vote from those who had previously +voted Reformist. +According to the official data1, Mahmud Ahmadinejad has received +approximately 13m more votes in this election than the combined conservative +vote in the 2005 Presidential election2. +Assuming that Ahmadinejad retained all 11.5m Conservative votes from 2005, +these additional 13m votes could have come from three sources, in +descending order of likelihood: +•The approximately 10.6m citizens who did not vote in 2005, but chose +to vote in this election +•The 6.2m citizens who voted for the centrist Rafsanjani in 2005 +•The 10.4m citizens who voted for Reformist candidates in 2005 +In order to examine in detail where Ahmadinejad's increased support came +from, the table below (Fig.3) shows the composition of the 2009 vote by +province, dividing it into those who voted Conservative, Rafsanjani, and +Reformist in 2005, and those who did not vote at all in 2005. It assumes that +2005 voters will vote again. +The table demonstrates that in the 10 of Iran's 30 provinces highlighted red, in +order for the official statistics to be correct Ahmadinejad would have needed to +win over all new voters, all former Rafsanjani voters, and also up to 44% of +former reformist voters. +1 Serious complaints have been raised about both the 2005 elections and the 2009 +elections. Government data is not perfectly reliable. +2 In 2005 there were three Conservative candidates in the first round. Ahmadinejad can +reasonably be expected to have received in 2009, all votes cast for Conservatives in +2005. Here, Ahmadinejad's 2009 performance is compared to the combined +performance of all three Conservatives in 2005. +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 6 +It is notable that many of these are provinces where the Reformist cleric Mehdi +Karrubi polled highly in 2005, and the government's figures would appear to +suggest that his former supporters have not voted tactically for the likely +Reformist challenger Mir Hussein Musavi, as many had expected, but rather +that they have defected to the hard-line conservative incumbent Ahmadinejad. +This interpretation is to some extent supported by the relationship between the +percentage of former Karrubi voters in a province, and its swing to +Ahmadinejad (Fig.2). +To many Reformists, this situation is extremely unlikely. Mehdi Karrubi is a +well-known reformist, of polar opposite views to Ahmadinejad on issues of +political and cultural freedoms, economic management, and foreign policy. +They allege fraud, and it is likely that the provinces where Karrubi's vote has +collapsed will provide the bulk of the 600+ complaints which the defeated +c andidates are lodging against the conduct of the election. +However, Karrubi, like Ahmadinejad, is seen as a 'man of the people', and +Ahmadinejad is as much a re-incarnation of the Islamic Republic's early hard +left as he is a leader of its current hard-right. Ahmadinejad's supporters thus +claim that rural voters voted for Ahmadinejad in 2009 for precisely the same +reasons that they voted for Karrubi in 2005. +The data offers no arbitration in this dispute, although Roukema's application +of statistical fraud detection techniques to the 'by district' data has turned up +some anomalies with respect to the figures for Karrubi's vote,3 which may +suggest that they were created by a computer. These can be followed up +should the fully disaggregated 'by polling station' data be released during the +ongoing dispute. +3 B Roukena, 'Benford's Law Anomalies in the 2009 Iranian Presidential Election' (as +yet unpublished article, 2009). +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 7 +Source: Ministry of Interior Publications 2005 and 2009 (See appendix) +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 8 +Potential sources of new votes for Ahmadinejad (Fig.3) +Province +Ahmadinejad +Voters '09 +Ahmadinejad +Voters '05 +Other +Conservative +Voters '05 +Non-Voters +'05 +Rafsanjani +Voters '05 +Reformist Voters '05 +Assumed Take +of Former +Reformist +Voters +East +Azerbaijan +1,131,111 198,417 150,235 684,745 268,954 690,784 -24.79% +West +Azerbaijan +623,946 75,319 156,724 520,896 151,525 409,798 -68.45% +Ardebil 325,911 34,090 114,038 161,510 95,490 232,505 -34.07% +Isfahan 1,799,255 801,635 271,861 854,867 260,858 423,098 -92.17% +Ilam 199,654 32,383 47,865 20,165 40,580 168,179 34.88% +Bushehr 299,357 82,376 55,169 81,202 97,412 171,637 -9.79% +Tehran 3,819,495 1,500,829 860,548 2,424,653 1,274,276 1,345,533 -166.54% +Chaharmahal +& Bakhtiari +359,578 90,960 87,195 126,366 59,521 128,451 -3.48% +Southern +Khorasan +285,984 101,638 54,759 95,657 57,244 71,939 -32.41% +Razavi +Khorasan +2,214,801 377,732 956,641 638,925 527,707 656,736 -43.58% +Northern +Khorasan +341,104 22,954 116,991 115,487 70,407 135,090 11.30% +Khuzestan 1,303,129 232,874 206,798 543,802 319,921 707,428 -0.04% +Zanjan 444,480 93,309 94,234 132,237 110,698 150,062 9.33% +Semnan 295,177 98,024 65,249 90,128 69,773 56,344 -49.69% +Sistan & +Baluchistan +450,269 47,743 93,559 117,432 155,147 563,454 6.46% +Fars 1,758,026 242,535 334,925 738,209 403,074 786,195 5.00% +Qazvin 498,061 118,414 102,048 188,868 108,928 168,013 -12.02% +Qom 422,457 256,110 36,686 125,178 104,004 67,557 -147.31% +Kordestan 315,689 22,353 59,174 251,014 54,004 211,918 -33.44% +Kerman 1,160,446 129,284 333,275 337,502 480,271 215,357 -55.67% +Kermanshah 573,568 70,117 137,472 251,113 137,010 374,100 -5.92% +Kohgilouye & +Boyerahmad +253,962 34,396 72,565 53,615 56,154 148,985 24.99% +Golestan 515,211 56,776 129,856 156,256 155,498 358,715 4.69% +Gilan 998,573 149,026 221,632465,190 215,478 420,258 -12.55% +Lorestan 677,829 69,710 101,394 162,848 121,130 500,859 44.47% +Mazandaran 1,289,257 159,291 581,654 581,269 311,949 270,104 -127.69% +Markezi 572,988 161,669 89,086 200,024 143,118 184,172 -11.35% +Hormozegan 482,990 81,054 103,487 136,459 75,601 340,740 25.35% +Hamedan 765,723 195,030 96,988 218,400 175,997 322,938 24.56% +Yazd 337,178175,206 76,209 150,781 77,924 123,828 -115.44% +Totals 24,515,209 5,711,254 5,808,317 10,624,798 6,179,653 10,404,777 +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 9 +3. Do Rural Voters Support Ahmadinejad? +Many commentators have suggested, before and after the Presidential +Election, that Ahmadinejad is very popular in rural areas and that this explains +his high levels of support. However, the data from the 2005 Presidential +election does not support this contention. Instead, it confirms that what +support Ahmadinejad did gain in 2005 was mainly from urban and suburban +areas. The graphs below show the levels of support for Ahmadinejad against +the rural population of the province in question (Fig.4) and Conservatives as a +group (Fig.5). +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 10 +Source: Ministry of Interior Publications 2005 and 2009 and Iranian Census of +2006 (see appendix) +This data supports the con tention of academic experts on rural Iranian politics4 +that rural voters have not been the dedicated Ahmadinejad supporters +occasionally described in western media. This is supported by the fact that +much of Iran's rural population is comprised of ethnic minorities: Lors, Baluch, +• +Kurdish, and Arab amongst others. These ethnic minorities have a history both +of voting Reformist and of voting for members of their own ethnic group. For +example, they were an important segment of Khatami's vote in 1997 and 2001 +and voted largely for Karrubi and Mostafa Moin in 2005. +The 2009 data suggests a sudden shift in political support with precisely these +rural provinces, which had not previously supported Ahmadinejad or any other +conservative (Fig.5) showing substantial swings to Ahmadinejad (Fig.6). At the +same time, the official data suggests that the vote for Mehdi Karrubi, who was +extremely popular in these rural, ethnic minority areas in 2005, has collapsed +entirely even in his home province of Lorestan, where his vote has gone from +440,247 (55.5%) in 2005 to just 44,036 (4.6%) in 2009. This is paralleled by +an overall swing of 50.9% to Ahmadinejad, with official results suggesting that +he has captured the support of 47.5% of those who cast their ballots for +4 Cf.

The claim +that this year Ahmadinejad swept the board in more rural provinces +flies in the face of these trends. +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 3 +1. Irregularities in Voter Turnout +Two provinces show a turnout of over 100% and four more show a turnout of +over 90%. Regional variations in participation have disappeared. There is no +correlation between the increase in participation, and the swing to +Ahm adinejad. +Firstly, across the board there is a massive increase in turnout, with several +provinces increasing their participation rate by nearly 75%. This increase +results in substantially less variation in turnout between provinces, with the +standard deviation amongst provincial turnouts falling by just over 23% since +2005. The 2005 results show a substantial turnout gap, with seven provinces +recording turnout below 60%, and ten above 70%. In 2009, only two were +below 70% and 24 were above 80%. In fact, 21 out of 30 provinces had +turnouts within 5% of 83%. The data seems to suggest that regional variations +in participation have suddenly disappeared. +This makes the evident lack of any sort of correlation between the provinces +that saw an increase in turnout and those that saw a swing to Ahmadinejad +(Fig.1) all the more unusual. There is no significant correlation between the +increase in participation for a given province and the swing to Ahmadinejad +(Fig.1). This lack of correlation makes the argument that an increase in +participation by a previously silent conservative majority won the election for +Ahmadinejad somewhat problematic. +Furthermore, there are concerns about the numbers themselves. Two +provinces, Mazandaran and Yazd, have results which indicate that more votes +were cast on 12 June than there were eligible voters and that four more +provinces had turnouts in the mid-nineties. +In a country where allegations of 'tombstone voting' — the practice200f using the +identity documents of the deceased to cast additional ballots — are both longstanding +and widespread, this result is troubling but perhaps not unexpected. +This problem did not start with Ahmadinejad; according to official statistics +gathered by the International institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance +in Stockholm, there were 12.9% more registered voters at the time of +Mohammed Khatami's 2001 victory than there were citizens of voting age. +In conclusion, a number of aspects of the reported turnout figures are +problematic. The massive increases from 2005, the collapse of regional +variations, and the absence of any clear correlation between increases in +turnout and increased support for any candidate on their own make the results +problematic. +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 4 +Source: Ministry of Interior Publications 2005 and 2009 (See appendix) +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762461 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762461 Date: 06/30/2015 +2. Where did Ahmadinejad's New Votes Come From? +According to the official Ministry of Interior voting data (see Appendix), +Mahmud Ahmadinejad has increased the conservative vote by 113% +compared to the 2005 election. There is little correlation in provincial level +results between the increase in turnout and the swing to the President, +challenging the notion that a previously silent conservative majority has come +out to support him. Interestingly, in 1.0 out of 30 provinces, mainly former +Mehdi Karrubi strongholds, the official data suggests that Ahmadinejad +received not only the votes of all former non-voters and former Rafsanjani +voters, but also took up to 44% of the vote from those who had previously +voted Reformist. +According to the official data1, Mahmud Ahmadinejad has received +approximately 13m more votes in this election than the combined conservative +vote in the 2005 Presidential election2. +Assuming that Ahmadinejad retained all 11.5m Conservative votes from 2005, +these additional 13m votes could have come from three sources, in +descending order of likelihood: +•The approximately 10.6m citizens who did not vote in 2005, but chose +to vote in this election +•The 6.2m citizens who voted for the centrist Rafsanjani in 2005 +•The 10.4m citizens who voted for Reformist candidates in 2005 +In order to examine in detail where Ahmadinejad's increased support came +from, the table below (Fig.3) shows the composition of the 2009 vote by +province, dividing it into those who voted Conservative, Rafsanjani, and +Reformist in 2005, and those who did not vote at all in 2005. It assumes that +2005 voters will vote again. +The table demonstrates that in the 10 of Iran's 30 provinces highlighted red, in +order for the official statistics to be correct Ahmadinejad would have needed to +win over all new voters, all former Rafsanjani voters, and also up to 44% of +former reformist voters. +1 Serious complaints have been raised about both the 2005 elections and the 2009 +elections. Government data is not perfectly reliable. +2 In 2005 there were three Conservative candidates in the first round. Ahmadinejad can +reasonably be expected to have received in 2009, all votes cast for Conservatives in +2005. Here, Ahmadinejad's 2009 performance is compared to the combined +performance of all three Conservatives in 2005. +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 6 +It is notable that many of these are provinces where the Reformist cleric Mehdi +Karrubi polled highly in 2005, and the government's figures would appear to +suggest that his former supporters have not voted tactically for the likely +Reformist challenger Mir Hussein Musavi, as many had expected, but rather +that they have defected to the hard-line conservative incumbent Ahmadinejad. +This interpretation is to some extent supported by the relationship between the +percentage of former Karrubi voters in a province, and its swing to +Ahmadinejad (Fig.2). +To many Reformists, this situation is extremely unlikely. Mehdi Karrubi is a +well-known reformist, of polar opposite views to Ahmadinejad on issues of +political and cultural freedoms, economic management, and foreign policy. +They allege fraud, and it is likely that the provinces where Karrubi's vote has +collapsed will provide the bulk of the 600+ complaints which the defeated +c andidates are lodging against the conduct of the election. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762461 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762461 Date: 06/30/2015 +However, Karrubi, like Ahmadinejad, is seen as a 'man of the people', and +Ahmadinejad is as much a re-incarnation of the Islamic Republic's early hard +left as he is a leader of its current hard-right.

Do Rural Voters Support Ahmadinejad? +Many commentators have suggested, before and after the Presidential +Election, that Ahmadinejad is very popular in rural areas and that this explains +his high levels of support. However, the data from the 2005 Presidential +election does not support this contention. Instead, it confirms that what +support Ahmadinejad did gain in 2005 was mainly from urban and suburban +areas. The graphs below show the levels of support for Ahmadinejad against +the rural population of the province in question (Fig.4) and Conservatives as a +group (Fig.5). +Preliminary Analysis of Voting Figures in Iran's 2009 Presidential Election +www.chathamhouse.org.uk 10 +Source: Ministry of Interior Publications 2005 and 2009 and Iranian Census of +2006 (see appendix) +This data supports the con tention of academic experts on rural Iranian politics4 +that rural voters have not been the dedicated Ahmadinejad supporters +occasionally described in western media. This is supported by the fact that +much of Iran's rural population is comprised of ethnic minorities: Lors, Baluch, +• +Kurdish, and Arab amongst others. These ethnic minorities have a history both +of voting Reformist and of voting for members of their own ethnic group.

At the +same time, the official data suggests that the vote for Mehdi Karrubi, who was +extremely popular in these rural, ethnic minority areas in 2005, has collapsed +entirely even in his home province of Lorestan, where his vote has gone from +440,247 (55.5%) in 2005 to just 44,036 (4.6%) in 2009.

The committee +shall review all existing APP action plans that focus on technology advancement, including +cleaner fossil fuel and power generation, determine the projects that should be expedited and +then leverage existing financial mechanisms to fund them. The bill authorizes funding of $200 +million annually from 2010 to 2015. The new committee enables the APP to strengthen its focus +on development and commercialization of clean energy technologies — as well as: +• Engages specific countries with the largest markets, manufacturing bases, and +distribution chains in order to leverage their assets to achieve lower technology +development and commercialization costs and influence global standards. +• Receives a minimum of 100% match in funding. Existing APP Program Office policy +requires all projects to have a minimum 1 for 1 match for funding from partners — +equaling a program total of $2 billion in 5 years, contingent on U.S. funding at $200 +million per year. +• Strengthens U.S. International Climate Diplomacy efforts by strengthening existing +channels of engagement with critical countries (China and India) in areas where they can +effectively contribute to the global effort of reducing GHG emissions. +APP Background +Initiated in July of 2005, The Asia-Pacific Partnership on Clean Development and Climate (APP) +brings together seven major Asia-Pacific countries — Australia, Canada, China, India, Japan, +Korea, and the United States — that collectively account for more than half of the world's +economy, population, and energy use. Within this framework; the Partners are cooperating in +voluntary and collaborative efforts to address increased energy needs and the associated issues of +air pollution, energy security, and climate change. An innovative public-private sector effort, the +Asia-Pacific Partnership was established to achieve these objectives in ways that promote +economic development, reduce poverty, and accelerate the development and deployment of +cleaner, more efficient technologies. The work of the Asia-Pacific Partnership comprises a wide +range of activities. The initial portfolio of Partnership projects is weighted toward activities such +best practice identification, and technology research and demonstration, with project examples +including: standardized energy efficient lighting; transforming waste to fuel in cement kilns; +improving carbon capture technology for coal-fired power plants; developing coal mining health +and safety strategies; sharing best practices in power generation; promoting solar power +deployment; and increasing usage of cleaner steel technologies. +1 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762500 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1938,C05762501,THE PASSPORT CARD TRAVEL ENHANCEMENT ACT (S.321),,,,,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/23_24_25_26/DOC_0C05762501/C05762501.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05762501,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762501 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +THE PASSPORT CARD TRAVEL ENHANCEMENT ACT (S. 321) +As part of efforts to implement the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI), the Department of +State (State) developed the U.S. passport card as a cheaper, more portable alternative to the U.S. passport +book in 2008 as required by P.L. 109-295. Over 1 million passport cards have been issued to date. +Applicants for a passport card complete the exact same application as applicants for a passport book +(http://travel.state.gov/passport/ppt_card/ppt_card_3926.html), and those applications are adjudicated by State +using ""the exact same standards"" (http://travel.state.gov/passport/ppt_cardippt_card_3921.html). +Despite these similarities, State only allows U.S. nationals to use the passport card to enter U.S. land and sea +ports-of-entry from Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and Bermuda. State does not allow the passport card to be +used for any air travel despite the fact that, prior to 2007, rarely was any documentation required for U.S. +citizens to travel by air between the U.S. and Canada, Mexico, Bermuda and the Caribbean. +Therefore, the Passport Card Travel Enhancement amendment would require the Departments of +Homeland Security (DHS) and State to accept the passport card as a WHTI-compliant document for air +travel between the U.S. and Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and Bermuda. In today's economic climate, +such steps are necessary to provide more, less expensive ways for U.S. citizens to comply with WHTI. +While the passport card is not a globally interoperable document that conforms to International Civil +Aviation Organization (ICAO) standards, Senator Voinovich questions why the card needs to be a +globally interoperable document in order for U.S. nationals to use it to fly within the Western Hemisphere +to Canada, Mexico, Bermuda and the Caribbean since U.S. nationals generally didn't need any +documentation to fly to those destinations prior to 2007 and even today, Canada, Mexico and Bermuda +rarely require any documentation from U.S. citizens, much less ICAO compliant documentation. Further, +he questions why the passport card needs to meet ICAO standards since DHS already accepts NEXUS +cards, which do not meet ICAO standards, for air, land and sea travel between the U.S. and Canada +(http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/travel/trusted_traveler/nexus_proginexus.xml). +Additionally, Senator Voinovich does not believe allowing the passport card to be used for Western +Hemisphere air travel would cause any more confusion than is already associated with WHTI and the +multiple travel documents that have been deemed WHTI compliant for some or all entries, or than will +result from the status quo, which allows the passport card to be used for some (land and sea) but not all +(air) Western Hemisphere air travel; +Lastly, Senator Voinovich does not believe allowing passport cards to be used for limited air travel would +increase the cost of providing emergency citizen services abroad because prior to 2007, rarely was any +documentation needed to travel to Mexico, Canada, Bermuda and the Caribbean, and the cost of +emergency citizen services abroad at that time was not an issue, and furthermore, State does not track the +cost of such services by country, so at present, there is no way to track increased costs. +In its comments to State's Proposed Rule regarding the passport card, the Canadian Government +suggested allowing the passport card to be used for air travel between Canada and the U.S. Additionally, +at the 2008 U.S.-Canada Inter-Parliamentary Group meeting, a resolution was passed declaring that +passport cards should be valid for air travel between Canada and the United States. +S. 321 is cosponsored by Senators Klobuchar, Collins, Tester, Murkowski and Bingaman and is supported +by the Air Transport Association, the U.S. Travel Association and the National Business Travel +Association. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762501 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +1939,C05762507,FOLLOW-UP INFORMATION REGARDING LEGISLATION MENTIONED IN SENATOR VOLNOVCH'S CALL TO THE SECRETARY (S. 321 AND S. 840),H,"Verma, Richard R",180,2009-06-23T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/23_24_25_26/DOC_0C05762507/C05762507.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05762507,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Verma, Richard R WermaRR@state.gov> +Tuesday, June 23, 2009 7:12 PM +Abedin, Huma +Re: Follow-up information regarding legislation mentioned in Senator Voinovich's call to the +Secretary (S. 321 and S. 840) +Got it.

I +was reminded of that article when I read today's piece by Elliott Abrams in the Wall Street Journal, which +should, I believe, have been entitled ""The West Bank Settlers' Lawyer."" +Before anyone accuses me of casting aspersions on Mr. Abrams' honor or motivations, let me be clear: I have +no doubt he has taken the case pro bono. For him, advocating for the settlers is clearly a labor of love. And the +settlers are fortunate to have Elliott volunteering for the job. He brings a unique combination of expertise and +experience, combined, it would seem, with a shameless willingness to cherry-pick the facts and, when the facts +don't support his argument, to fall back on the ""I was there and I know what happened."" +An interesting approach from a man who does not have a spotless record when it comes to truth-telling and +foreign policy (for anyone who has forgotten the history: ""Elliott Abrams — Pleaded guilty October 7, 1991, to +two misdemeanor charges of withholding information from Congress about secret government efforts to support +the Nicaraguan contra rebels during a ban on such aid. U.S. District Chief Judge Aubrey E. Robinson, Jr., +sentenced Abrams November 15, 1991, to two years probation and 100 hours community service. Abrams was +pardoned December 24, 1992."") +But that was a long time ago. Let's forgot the ugly and embarrassing Iran-Contra history and focus on the +""facts"" in the current case, as Elliott sees them: +In today's WSJ article, Elliott offers an almost completely unverifiable history of what he says transpired +between June 2003 and August 2005 (the date of Israel's ""disengagement"" from Gaza). Predictably, he focuses +on the letter President Bush gave to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon on April 14, 2004. In that letter, Elliott notes +(correctly), Bush wrote: ""In light of new realities on the ground, including already existing major Israeli +populations centers, it is unrealistic to expect that the outcome of final status negotiations will be a full and +complete return to the armistice lines of 1949."" +61 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762522 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762522 Date: 06/30/2015 +What Elliott neglects to mention is that in the letter Bush also re-stated his commitment to the Roadmap (""the +United States remains committed to my vision and to its implementation as described in the roadmap""), which +in stage I states that ""Consistent with the Mitchell Report, GOI freezes all settlement activity (including natural +growth of settlements)."" +Elliott then goes on to assert that ""On settlements we also agreed on principles that would permit some +continuing growth."" His evidence of such an agreement? Exhibit A: A statement by Prime Minister Sharon, not +President Bush: ""Mr. Sharon stated these clearly in a major policy speech in December 2003: 'Israel will meet +all its obligations with regard to construction in the settlements. There will be no construction beyond the +existing construction line, no expropriation of land for construction, no special economic incentives and no +construction of new settlements."" +Is this extremely experienced lawyer and foreign policy professional seriously arguing that a statement by +Sharon should be understood as an accurate articulation of US policy, even in the absence of any corroborating +statement by the US President? Even when that lengthy policy speech went into a range of issue where - at least +officially - there was public disagreement with the US? (for example, in this same speech Sharon makes clear +Israel views the Roadmap commitments as sequential - the Palestinians do everything they have to do, and only +then does Israel act. ) Apparently so. +But it gets better. For further evidence, Elliott asserts that, really, the US agreed with everything Sharon was +saying. His evidence? Exhibit B: A letter from Arid Sharon's Chief of Staff, Dov Weissglas, Secretary of State +Rice.. +It is like saying ""your honor, I swear my client did not sideswipe that car in the parking lot. I was there and I +saw the whole thing. And as proof I give you my statement and a statement from my client and his wife, written +to the owner of the damaged car, making clear that they were not the ones who hit his car. I rest my case."" +So there are not quotes from President Bush or Secretary Rice to support Elliott's narrative - only statements by +Israeli officials. +But Elliot has more proof to bring before the court: media reports. Exhibit #C: Elliott notes that ""Stories in the +press also made it clear that there were indeed 'agreed principles.' On Aug. 21, 2004 the New York Times +reported that 'the Bush administration . . . now supports construction of new apartments in areas already built +up in some settlements, as long as the expansion does not extend outward."" +Interesting. So if the NYT reported it, it must be true, right? Or rather, what must be true is that they were +reporting what someone told them, at the time. And according to the first paragraph of the article Elliott cites, +the source is: ""American and Israeli officials."" Who could these officials be? Could they be Abrams himself +(who at this point can no longer deny that he is personally invested in such a policy), and maybe Dov +Weissglas? There is no way to know, but regardless, this is clearly not definitive proof of anything, other than +the fact that there were Israeli and US officials spinning the story this way. +The rest of Elliott's article is simply hearsay and innuendo, speculation, and conjecture - not a single ""fact"" that +can be examined, let alone refuted. Elliott rests his case on statements by two Israeli officials who never hid +their desire to do everything possible to keep building West Bank settlements, and press reports based on un- +named US and Israeli officials. +With this kind of evidence, it is hard to see why the jury is still debating this case at all. Clearly the settlers' +have a really excellent lawyer. +62 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762522 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762522 Date: 06/30/2015 +And since some of us prefer to rely on facts, rather than clever argumentation and bombastic statements, here +are some actual statements by President Bush about settlements, from the same period Elliott is addressing: +President Bush 9/21/04: ""...Israel should impose a settlement freeze, dismantle unauthorized outposts, end the +daily humiliation of the Palestinian people and avoid any actions that prejudice final negotiations..."" +President Bush,11/27/07: ""...Israel must demonstrate its support for the creation of a prosperous and successful +Palestinian state by removing unauthorized outposts, ending settlement expansion, and finding other ways for +the Palestinian Authority to exercise its responsibilities without compromising Israel's security."" +President Bush,1/9/2008: "" ...The second track is to help both parties deal with road map issues.

Ellen 0. Tauscher enjoyed an enthusiastic reception from the Senate Foreign +Relations Committee on Tuesday, but a senior Republican said she'll be blocked from quick floor +consideration. +Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., said he plans to place a hold on the Tauscher nomination as soon as it +is reported out of the committee, as leverage to get information and assurances from the Obama administration +on issues including — but not limited to — nuclear reduction talks with Russia and the deployment of ballistic +missile defense. +""All I'm going to ask for is for the administration to abide by commitments that it has made, which one would +think it could easily do,"" said Kyl. He declined to reveal the specifics of the assurances he is seeking. +As the White House's top arms control adviser, Tauscher would be charged with pushing for ratification of the +Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) and a follow-on to the expiring Strategic Arms Reduction +Treaty (START) with Russia. +Tauscher, chairwoman of the House Armed Services Strategic Forces Subcommittee, would have to contend +with considerable push-back from Senate Republicans to implement either treaty. +Many treaty opponents argue the test-ban could undermine the U.S. capacity to deter other nations from using +nuclear weapons. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762567 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762567 Date: 06/30/2015 +She said Tuesday that numerous advances have been made in test-ban verification procedures and ensuring the +safety of the U.S. stockpile since the Senate rejected ratification of the CTBT nearly 10 years ago. +""Stopping nuclear proliferation by protecting our stockpile, maintaining the credibility of our deterrent and +preventing terrorists from getting a hold of a weapon of mass destruction has become my life's work,"" she told +the panel Tuesday. +She also said she would back President Obama's diplomatic efforts to persuade the eight other non-signatories +— China, North Korea, India, Pakistan, Indonesia, Iran, Israel and Egypt — to ratify the treaty. Indonesia's +foreign minister said Monday it would ratify the CTBT, which bans all nuclear explosions for any purpose, +immediately after the United States does. +Tauscher would need to tackle critics among Senate Republicans who contend the Obama administration is +rushing into an agreement on nuclear arms reduction with Russia. +At an Armed Services Strategic Forces Subcommittee hearing last week, Sens. David Vitter, R-La., and Jeff +Sessions, R-Ala., said it was imprudent for the Obama administration to agree to reduced nuclear warhead +levels with Russia before the release of the Defense Department's Nuclear Posture Review, which sets the +course of the nation's nuclear stockpile, in early 2010. Administration negotiators aim to have a renewed +agreement with Russia before the current treaty expires on Dec. 5. +Tauscher told the Senate Foreign Relations panel Tuesday that she would work to allay those concerns. ""We +can multi-task. . . . I'm confident we can assure everyone . . . that what is going on in the review is informing +the negotiations."" +Chairman John Kerry, D-Mass., said he would move Tauscher's nomination quickly through the committee and +would urge the full Senate to follow quickly thereafter. +Josh Rogin contributed to this story. +First posted June 9, 2009 2:28 p.m. +Source: CQ Today Print Edition +Round-the-clock coverage of news from Capitol Hill. +C 2009 Congressional Quarterly Inc.

But some suspect the reason has its roots in an event that +holds a storied place in White House lore — President Bill Clinton's 1998 speech to a +massive crowd in the sweltering heat of Accra, Ghana, where Obama will visit as well. +For Clinton, the first stop on a 12-day, six-country African journey was a chance to bask in +the adulation far from Washington, then consumed with the Monica Lewinsky scandal. +Clinton now regularly pegs the size of the crowd that day at 1 million, though years ago he +described it simply as more than 500,000. +Whatever the number, the overheated, overcrowded, overwhelming event left some in +Clinton's party worried that he'd been shot, and a doctor concerned that he could contract +HIV from frantic interaction with the crowd. And it took a threatening turn at the end, as a +red-faced, shouting Clinton implored the crowd, ""Get back! Back off!"" as it threatened to +crush a woman near the front of the stage. +""The crowd was so large that it began surging towards the stage. Suddenly, a woman in +the front of the crowd began to get trampled,"" recalled Sandy Berger, Clinton's national +security adviser at the time. ""Clinton jumped up and put his arm down over the side and +grabbed her. The Secret Service thought he'd been shot and freaked out."" +A7 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762645 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762645 Date: 06/30/2015 +""He saved her life,"" Berger said. ""It was a kind of tumultuous scene."" +Clinton's White House physician Dr. Connie Mariano said she started out that day worried +about the heat, but wound up concerned about HIV. +""It was steamy, and hot, and miserable,"" Mariano recalled. ""[Ghana's president General +Jerry] Rawlings put a ceremonial robe over [Clinton's] dark business suit and I thought, +'Oh my God, he's going to pass out,"" she said. +Mariano said the feverish crowd and the scuffle over people being crushed at the front left +the president nicked up. +""He got scratches. His hands were cut because people's nails were scratching him +because they wanted to hold him,"" she said. ""Realize how many HIV-positive people there +were there. ... It was an extremely frightening experience."" +As the crowd surged forward, police wielding rubber truncheons slammed them down on +the hands of people holding onto the barricades. The front-line people would jump back, +only to be pushed forward, grab the barricades, and have their hands whacked again. +Reporters offering bottled water to parched Ghanaians nearly triggered a stampede. +""I just remember the mass of flesh. There was like a gazillion people, more than I had ever +seen in my life,"" said Ann Scales, who covered the event for The Boston Globe. +Clinton's speechwriter that day, Ted Widmer, recalled a feeling of sensory overload. +""It was surreal in many ways — just one sensation after the next,"" he said. ""Sweat was +pouring out of every pore in my body. ... I was seeing these people do a lion dance with +deafening drums. ... I've been at plenty of unmemorable political speeches. This one was +carnival-esque and fun."" +During the presidential primary campaign last year, Clinton often invoked the memory of +his Accra speech as an example of when he was at his rhetorical peak. ""Back when I was +in politics, I was a reasonably good speaker,"" Clinton told college students in Austin, +Texas last February. ""I once spoke to a million people in Ghana."" +Estimates of how many people were actually on hand that day vary widely. In Clinton's +book, ""My Life,"" he says ""more than half a million people."" White House officials speaking +to reporters that day said security aides to Rawlings had also estimated the crowd at more +than 500,000. However, The Associated Press reported that Ghanaian officials put it at +more than 1 million. The New York Times used the half-million estimate, but also reported +that Independence Square, where Clinton spoke, ""has a capacity of more than 200,000."" +Whatever the true number, Obama isn't trying to top it. He'll address Ghana's parliament, +meet the country's president, and tour a slave fort on Ghana's coast on the final stop of +week-long trip that also takes him to Russia to meet the country's leaders and Italy for a +G-8 summit and to see Pope Benedict XVI. +A senior White House official, speaking on background, said staging Obama's major +speech at the parliament ""primarily reflects and emphasizes the importance of different +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762645 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762645 Date: 06/30/2015 +institutions in the political life of Ghana,"" the official said. +In a briefing for reporters this week, the National Security Council's director for African +Affairs, Michelle Gavin, indicated Obama's main interaction with ordinary people during his +less-than-24-hour visit will come at the Accra airport during ""a departure ceremony that +will allow more Ghanaians an opportunity to participate in the visit."" +In addition to the challenges inherent in controlling a friendly crowd, another possible +factor weighing against a major outdoor speech by Obama is the terrorist threat posed by +at Qaeda. The bombings of the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania came in August +1998, about five months after Clinton spoke to the throngs in Ghana. Since September 11, +2001, there have also been reports of al Qaeda activity in the West African countries +Liberia and Sierra Leone. +""It's another world,"" Mariano said. ""We were pre-9/11 with Clinton. After 9/11, everything +changed."" +Even without a formal public event, thousands of Ghanaians are sure to flock into the +streets in the hopes of getting a glimpse of Obama. There should be no shortage of +pictures of excited Africans cheering the U.S. president's visit. +When President George W. Bush went to Ghana in February 2008, he avoided venues +that might draw a large crowd. There was no grand speech. Bush met with Peace Corps +volunteers at the U.S. ambassador's residence, talked to development groups at a foreign +trade center, took in a one-inning tee-ball game, and attended a State Dinner at Osu +Castle, which was then the seat of government. +One highlight of Bush's visit was the performance of the U.S. national anthem by +American Idol winner Jordin Sparks, who works against malaria. +Of course, in a sense Obama may already have broken whatever record Clinton set in +Accra 11 years ago. When Obama was sworn in in January, Washington, D.C. officials +estimated the crowd at 1.8 million. Other estimates ranged from 800,000 to 3 million. Of +course, no one was in danger of heatstroke. Frostbite was more like it. +In 2008, during the presidential campaign, Obama spoke in Germany to a crowd Berlin +police estimated at more than 200,000. +The purported million-strong turnout for Clinton's speech is all the more impressive given +Ghana's size. The country's population back in 1998 was estimated at 18.5 million, while +about 2 million people lived in the capital. +Berger said Ghanaians still remember the event fondly.

This is down from a 57 - 36 percent approval +May 6. A total of 66 percent of Ohio voters are ""somewhat dissatisfied"" or ""very dissatisfied"" with the way +things are going in the state, while 33 percent are ""very satisfied"" or ""somewhat satisfied,"" numbers that haven't +changed since Obama was elected. +In the race for Ohio's U.S. Senate seat being vacated by retiring George Voinovich in 2010, Lee Fisher and +Jennifer Brunner remain neck-and-neck for the Democratic nomination and both would defeat any of the GOP +candidates if the election were today. +""The economy in Ohio is as bad as anywhere in America. These numbers indicate that for the first time voters +have decided that President Barack Obama bears some responsibility for their problems,"" said Peter A. Brown, +assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. +""Until now voters have given President Obama high ratings on the economy, blaming former President George +W. Bush for their problems. They might be taking out their frustration on President Obama, possibly deciding +that the change he promised has not come as quickly as they expected."" +""Ohio historically has been the prototypical swing state. One of the reasons Barack Obama won the p residency +by such a wide margin is that he carried Ohio with 52 percent of the vote and captured the lion's share of +independent votes,"" Brown added. +""Now, by a 48 - 46 percent margin, Ohio independent voters give the President a failing grade on the economy. +These numbers indicate that he may be losing, at least for now, some of those who voted for him in November +and should be an indication to the White House that his honeymoon with the voters may be ending."" +In the Senate race, Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher holds a 24 - 21 percent lead over Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner in +the race for the Democratic nomination, with 51 percent undecided. +Former U.S. Rep. Rob Portman holds a 33 - 10 percent lead over car dealer Tom Ganley on the Republican +side, with 55 percent undecided. +In general election trial heats, Brunner would defeat Ganley 35 - 31 percent and get 35 percent to Portman's 34 +percent. Fisher leads Ganley 36 - 30 percent and Portman 37 - 33 percent. +From June 26 - July 1, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,259 Ohio voters, with a margin of error of +/- 2.8 +percentage points. The survey includes 483 Democrats with a margin of error of +/- 4.5 percentage points and +445 Republicans with a margin of error of +/-4.7 percentage points. +The Quinnipiac University Poll, directed by Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., conducts public opinion surveys in +Florida, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Ohio and the nation as a public service and for +research.

This is down from a 57 - 36 percent approval +May 6. A total of 66 percent of Ohio voters are ""somewhat dissatisfied"" or ""very dissatisfied"" with the way +things are going in the state, while 33 percent are ""very satisfied"" or ""somewhat satisfied,"" numbers that haven't +changed since Obama was elected. +In the race for Ohio's U.S. Senate seat being vacated by retiring George Voinovich in 2010, Lee Fisher and +Jennifer Brunner remain neck-and-neck for the Democratic nomination and both would defeat any of the GOP +candidates if the election were today. +""The economy in Ohio is as bad as anywhere in America. These numbers indicate that for the first time voters +have decided that President Barack Obama bears some responsibility for their problems,"" said Peter A. Brown, +assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Polling Institute. +""Until now voters have given President Obama high ratings on the economy, blaming former President George +W. Bush for their problems. They might be taking out their frustration on President Obama, possibly deciding +that the change he promised has not come as quickly as they expected."" +""Ohio historically has been the prototypical swing state. One of the reasons Barack Obama won the p residency +by such a wide margin is that he carried Ohio with 52 percent of the vote and captured the lion's share of +independent votes,"" Brown added. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762667 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762667 Date: 06/30/2015 +""Now, by a 48 - 46 percent margin, Ohio independent voters give the President a failing grade on the economy. +These numbers indicate that he may be losing, at least for now, some of those who voted for him in November +and should be an indication to the White House that his honeymoon with the voters may be ending."" +In the Senate race, Lt. Gov. Lee Fisher holds a 24 - 21 percent lead over Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner in +the race for the Democratic nomination, with 51 percent undecided. +Former U.S. Rep. Rob Portman holds a 33 - 10 percent lead over car dealer Tom Ganley on the Republican +side, with 55 percent undecided. +In general election trial heats, Brunner would defeat Ganley 35 - 31 percent and get 35 percent to Portman's 34 +percent. Fisher leads Ganley 36 - 30 percent and Portman 37 - 33 percent. +From June 26 - July 1, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,259 Ohio voters, with a margin of error of +/- 2.8 +percentage points. The survey includes 483 Democrats with a margin of error of +/- 4.5 percentage points and +445 Republicans with a margin of error of +/-4.7 percentage points. +The Quinnipiac University Poll, directed by Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., conducts public opinion surveys in +Florida, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Ohio and the nation as a public service and for +research.

Use as you wish. Several ideas +are at the core of this version: in particular, the concept of the US as a modern global nation and how +that serves our capacity for leadership. +For most policy speeches a generic tone and workmanlike prose are acceptable. But for this one, it is not. +This speech can't afford to be lackluster. It will then be held up in invidious comparison to Obama's +glittering best efforts. Your speech must have, amid the policies, a distinctive and authoritative voice. +Your early draft makes no distinctions between allies or partners; indeed, it barely mentions allies. The early +draft also features a strong malaise theme. Even if rebutted after being raised, the focus is on obstacles +and hindrances, not on achievements, opportunities and what can be achieved. There's no accounting of +progress so far. The effect is downbeat in tone. At the same time, the draft contains passages of vague +and gauzy liberal universalism, while in one line assailing it, an unconvincing juggling act. The notion +that all nations and peoples want the same things as Americans will not fly and is open to derision. It +reflects blithe liberal cultural imperialism, among other things. (See Graham Greene. And, on the +contrary, some nations—and peoples—seek nuclear weapons, like Iran; some don't want to curb global +warming, like China; some don't care about human rights, like most Arab nations; some have contempt +for democracy, including de facto allies like Egypt, not to mention Myanmar; and some are indifferent +to poverty, any number of African kleptocracies.) Also there is some confusion of definitions, for +example, asserting dialogue with adversaries is ""strategic engagement,"" when that is a concept usually +applied to allies and partners. +The speech must be crafted with a sense of real time and cannot be delivered out of sync with it. Slogans +can become shopworn, especially those that lack analytical, historical and descriptive power. What +served you once, at your confirmation, may not serve again in the same way. The most cogent foreign +policy columnists from Clive Crook of the Financial Times to David Rothkopf of Foreign Policy have +already written columns in the last week on the limits of ""soft power"" (i.e., ""smart power"") and others I +understand are preparing to make similar criticisms. I would use sparingly or not at all.

(A fact they have carefully hidden behind a veil of hundreds of years of economic and political +catastrophe.) +Somehow, the formula that has been working for Barack Obama since early in 2007 suddenly seems to have +gone cold. It is not enough simply to be him or to roll out Michelle and the girls (all of whom joined him in +Moscow...unlike say, his top two State Department officials). What's more, it's not just Russia. Oh sure, the +press still swoon in most corners of the world and crowds and political leaders still get all fluttery when first +exposed to America's charming, thoughtful, intelligent, young president. But we are now starting to see what +happens when being Barack Obama is not enough. We are now starting to see the shortcomings of the new +administration's approach wherein the president has actually been the policy. +He has said we had changed and offered himself as evidence. He has been what we have offered to friends in +terms of visits, access and calls. He has been the headline grabber, the spokesperson, the new voice of America. +He has enabled the administration to take inherited policies and wrap them in Obama-paper with Obama-glitter +all over it and all of a sudden, the old was repackaged into appearing new. Where there have been differences, +as with the concept of engagement, the change has been sold as a difference between him and his predecessor, +with his speeches describing what was new and the possibility of interacting with him being the potential pay- +off. +This played big during his early trips overseas, the novelty value was high and the eagerness to move on from +the painful prior era was great. At the G20 meeting, at the Summit of the Americas, in Cairo, the concept of +""president as policy"" seemed to be working. But now we see where it is not. Not in Russia. Not with the +Iranians who are happy to accept engagement and anything else that will be given to them but no strings, please +Not with Hugo Chavez, who hammed it up with Obama in Trinidad but led his misfit chorus in reflexively +hammering the United States after the coup in Honduras. Certainly not in North Korea. +It seems that having the president as policy works best with the people who are pre-disposed to like us and to +some extent with the young and the disenfranchised. But with the hard cases, with our enemies, it falls painfully +and dangerously flat. +In these instances, the new president is discovering that something much more than personal diplomacy and +smile from the genuinely appealing Obama clan is needed. In these instances, we are going to need to go back +to the drawing board and do the grunt work of foreign policy, the tough negotiations, the nuanced position +changes, the threats, the cajoling. It's a very different game from American politics and, in fact, is often +completely unconnected to it. What works here, very often does not play at all overseas. +There is a problem with this new reality. It requires a coordinated, multi-tiered, high-functioning foreign policy +establishment. It needs the State Department to be in a central role. It needs the NSC to work both as a policy +development and policy implementation mechanism and the National Security Advisor to be seen and +respected.. .like the Secretary of State.. .as key advisors. It requires that the foreign policy of the United States is +not centered too heavily either the president or the executive office of the president -- although the president +will always remain the ultimate key. It is perfectly appropriate for the president to be part of the product, part +of the rewards offered, and the mastermind...but he needs to move beyond campaign mode to something new. It +is much akin to the entrepreneur of a successful company recognizing that for the company to grow further, to +become a mature organization, he is going to need a mature structure that depends less on him and more on +delegation of power to effective lieutenants and their teams. +We're not there yet. The secretary of state and the State Department have been visibly marginalized. She has +become a kind of behind the scenes player. She's not on the Sunday morning shows. The president or the vice +president handles the big media assignments (often not sounding exactly like they were on the same page). The +National Security Advisor, for all his personal strengths, is viewed as a bit of a lost cause five months into the +presidency. One of his predecessors in the job said to me when asked whether he viewed General Jones as +failing in the job, ""to me, on that issue, where there is smoke, there is fire."" Tom Donilon, Jones's deputy, is +seen to be managing the NSC process. Denis McDonough and Mark Lippert, Obama confidantes, are seen to be +working closely with him and his inner office team (Rahm Emanuel, the VP, David Axelrod, Greg Craig and +others) to play the leading role in shaping policy. +Clearly neither Hillary Clinton nor Jim Jones is a weak person. But all power in the U.S. national security +apparatus flows from the president. And there is no denying that, despite the fact that they show up at work +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762715 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762715 Date: 06/30/2015 +every day and go through the motions, that their roles don't measure up to many of their predecessors and the +structure that is emerging suggests problems to come. +It's time to move out of campaign mode and into governing mode.

It's time to recognize that it does not reflect badly on the president if we all agree he cannot +transform the world single handedly, that however different he may be from his predecessors, that alone is not +enough. +ALEXEY DRUZHININ/AFP/Getty Images +David Rothkopf I Permalink I I Comments?

The conversations with Medvedev and Putin were tense, the +body language awkward. The speech at the New Economic School laid an egg.

And as for real results, well, there weren't +any. +Looking for explanations in an article Clifford Levy and Ellen Barry in today's New York Times +called ""In Russia, Obama's Star Power Does Not Translate,"" a range of possible answers were +rolled out: Russians are jaded, Russians don't go for U.S. political posturing, Obama's speeches +don't translate well, and, according to one person who ought to understand politics, a Russian +circus designer, ""Russians are the smartest people in the world."" (A fact they have carefully +hidden behind a veil of hundreds of years of economic and political catastrophe.) +Somehow, the formula that has been working for Barack Obama since early in 2007 suddenly +seems to have gone cold. It is not enough simply to be him or to roll out Michelle and the girls +(all of whom joined him in Moscow...unlike say, his top two State Department officials). What's +more, it's not just Russia. Oh sure, the press still swoon in most corners of the world and crowds +and political leaders still get all fluttery when first exposed to America's charming, thoughtful, +intelligent, young president. But we are now starting to see what happens when being Barack +Obama is not enough. We are now starting to see the shortcomings of the new administration's +approach wherein the president has actually been the policy. +He has said we had changed and offered himself as evidence. He has been what we have offered +to friends in terms of visits, access and calls. He has been the headline grabber, the spokesperson, +the new voice of America. He has enabled the administration to take inherited policies and wrap +them in Obama-paper with Obama-glitter all over it and all of a sudden, the old was repackaged +into appearing new. Where there have been differences, as with the concept of engagement, the +2 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762718 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762718 Date: 06/30/2015 +change has been sold as a difference between him and his predecessor, with his speeches +describing what was new and the possibility of interacting with him being the potential pay-off. +This played big during his early trips overseas, the novelty value was high and the eagerness to +move on from the painful prior era was great. At the G20 meeting, at the Summit of the +Americas, in Cairo, the concept of ""president as policy"" seemed to be working. But now we see +where it is not. Not in Russia. Not with the Iranians who are happy to accept engagement and +anything else that will be given to them but no strings, please Not with Hugo Chavez, who +hammed it up with Obama in Trinidad but led his misfit chorus in reflexively hammering the +United States after the coup in Honduras. Certainly not in North Korea. +It seems that having the president as policy works best with the people who are pre-disposed to +like us and to some extent with the young and the disenfranchised. But with the hard cases, with +our enemies, it falls painfully and dangerously flat. +In these instances, the new president is discovering that something much more than personal +diplomacy and smile from the genuinely appealing Obama clan is needed. In these instances, we +are going to need to go back to the drawing board and do the grunt work of foreign policy, the +tough negotiations, the nuanced position changes, the threats, the cajoling. It's a very different +game from American politics and, in fact, is often completely unconnected to it. What works +here, very often does not play at all overseas. +There is a problem with this new reality. It requires a coordinated, multi-tiered, high-functioning +foreign policy establishment. It needs the State Department to be in a central role. It needs the +NSC to work both as a policy development and policy implementation mechanism and the +National Security Advisor to be seen and respected.. .like the Secretary of State. ..as key advisors. +It requires that the foreign policy of the United States is not centered too heavily either the +president or the executive office of the president -- although the president will always remain the +ultimate key. It is perfectly appropriate for the president to be part of the product, part of the +rewards offered, and the mastermind.. .but he needs to move beyond campaign mode to +something new. It is much akin to the entrepreneur of a successful company recognizing that for +the company to grow further, to become a mature organization, he is going to need a mature +structure that depends less on him and more on delegation of power to effective lieutenants and +their teams. +We're not there yet. The secretary of state and the State Department have been visibly +marginalized. She has become a kind of behind the scenes player. She's not on the Sunday +morning shows. The president or the vice president handles the big media assignments (often not +sounding exactly like they were on the same page). The National Security Advisor, for all his +personal strengths, is viewed as a bit of a lost cause five months into the presidency. One of his +predecessors in the job said to me when asked whether he viewed General Jones as failing in the +job, ""to me, on that issue, where there is smoke, there is fire."" Tom Donilon, Jones's deputy, is +seen to be managing the NSC process. Denis McDonough.and Mark Lippert, Obama +confidantes, are seen to be working closely with him and his inner office team (Rahm Emanuel, +the VP, David Axelrod, Greg Craig and others) to play the leading role in shaping policy. +3 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762718 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762718 Date: 06/30/2015 +Clearly neither Hillary Clinton nor Jim Jones is a weak person.

And there is no denying that, despite the fact that +they show up at work every day and go through the motions, that their roles don't measure up to +many of their predecessors and the structure that is emerging suggests problems to come. +It's time to move out of campaign mode and into governing mode. It's time recognize that it +really does take a big team of empowered leaders to make the complex foreign policy of the U.S. +work and evolve in the right directions. It's time to recognize that it does not reflect badly on the +president if we all agree he cannot transform the world single handedly, that however different +he may be from his predecessors, that alone is not enough. +ALEXEY DRUZHININ/AFP/Getty Images +David Rothkopf I Permalink ??,,icri01 Comments?

Unfortunately, the 60 minutes interview has been raising +jingoistic fervor in Turkey. As I told you, the Foreign Ministry called HAH on Friday to express their dismay and concern +that He was disparaging Turkey in such a public manner. Of course, HAH expressed His love for His country, Turkey, but +reiterated the painful, laundry list of issues faced by the Greek Orthodox Christian minority. Today, many of the news +outlets in Turkey are attacking HAH saying that He has condemned Turkey's good name. One of the nationalist papers +called HAH crazy and pictured Him hanging from a cross. (see attachment) The Foreign Ministries said, acourse, that +he was sure the EP made ""a slip of the tongue."" +Our concern is that some nationalists will attempt to do damage to the Patriarchate or, ever worse some nut from the +Grey wolves will be let loose to hurt/kill HAH. Of course, the Government may over react once they see the full +interview. It is an honest piece of journalism - but very very tough ""to face the country in the mirror"". Sadly, some +Greek Nationalists fan the flames from their side as well. +I am also sending you a blogwhich shows some of the the lunacy out there on this issue. +Fortunately, we have good friends like you and an Administration that believes in human rights, religious freedom, civil +rights and dignity of every individual.

U.S. activists are also shedding new light on +the risks that gays face in East Africa. +In his book called The Family, American journalist Jeff Sharlet criticizes a group of influential American Christian leaders +and conservative lawmakers with close ties to politicians in East Africa. +He accuses them of treating some of the countries they deal with as social and political experiments. +""It has become sort of a Frankenstein's monster and is the family going to take responsibility for the empowerment they +have given to some of these politicians?,"" asked Jeff Sharlet. +In his book, Sharlet specifically refers to politicians in Uganda proposing an anti-gay law that would criminalize +homosexuality. The law, which could be passed within weeks despite international condemnation, includes possible +punishment by death. +Anti-gay laws were recently passed in Burundi, are being discussed in Rwanda, and could soon be expanded in Kenya +and Tanzania. +The American group Sharlet calls The Family is also known as The Fellowship. It organizes an annual National Prayer +Breakfast with the U.S. president and foreign guests, but besides that activity shuns publicity and does not openly list its +members. +But Sharlet says more American reporters are looking into the group and its alleged ties to Africa. These include helping +African politicians with money so they can push socially conservative agendas. +""We see reporters in Iowa, in Pennsylvania, and in Oklahoma, going to their elected representatives who have a link to +this whole thing and saying 'tell us about the link',"" he said. ""They are not accusing them of anything, they are saying, +'You have a relationship with the Ugandan government, what is the nature of that relationship? And, are you going to +use that influence to oppose this legislation that seems to be supported by some of your allies?"" +Religious leaders like Rick Warren have also been under the microscope. He is the senior pastor of the California-based +Saddleback church, which is active in both Uganda and Rwanda. +After being questioned about his role by U.S. media, Warren issued a video message on the Internet, denying his +support for the law in Uganda. +""As an American pastor, it is not my role to interfere with the politics of other nations, but it is my role to speak out on +moral issues and it is my role to shepherd other pastors who look to me for guidance, and it is my role to correct lies and +errors and false reports when others associate my name with a law that I had nothing to do with, [and which] I +completely oppose and I vigorously condemn,"" said Rick Warren. ""I am referring to the pending law under consideration +by the Ugandan parliament, known as the Anti-Homosexuality Bill."" +Rwanda's parliament is also working to pass a law which would criminalize homosexuality but Warren has yet to address +his church's role in that matter. In 2005, he called Rwanda a ""purpose driven nation."" Warren went with dozens of +American evangelicals to hold meetings with government ministers, lawmakers and donate materials to churches across +Rwanda. +Several American lawmakers who have been linked to the Fellowship, like Nevada Senator John Ensign have called the +Ugandan law proposal ""outrageous"". But others like Kansas Senator Sam Brownback, who went to Uganda in 2004, +have said they do not know enough about the bill to comment. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762738 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762738 Date: 06/30/2015 +The executive director of the U.S.-based International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission, Cary Alan Johnson, +welcomes some of the questions now being asked. +""It is a debate that has to happen and we are glad it is happening,"" said Cary Alan Johnson. ""Rwanda and Uganda are +both countries with deeply spiritual people and as of late we have understood that some of the more conservative +elements in the United States have been funding the most violent and homophobic discourses about homosexuality."" +Johnson says those seeking to push an agenda should understand the consequences of their actions. He warns anti-gay +laws could worsen already high HIV levels in east Africa. +""The impact of these laws on HIV prevention is extremely worrisome to us,"" he said. ""Laws we are talking about in +Uganda, Rwanda, will make it impossible for groups to do HIV education that targets men who have sex with men or +that targets bisexual people and we know that there is a strong impact of HIV on this community and on society in +general."" +Lisa Laurel Weinberg, from the Massachusetts Lutheran Social Services Human Rights Protection Project, says the +situation is already very difficult. In her other job as an asylum attorney, she recently helped a young Ugandan woman +win asylum to the United States. The woman's apartment had been raided by police while she was inside with her +girlfriend. +""The police broke in and brought them to the police station and raped them in what is called a corrective rape,"" said Lisa +Laurel Weinberg.

U.S. activists are also shedding new light on +the risks that gays face in East Africa. +In his book called The Family, American journalist Jeff Sharlet criticizes a group of influential American Christian leaders +and conservative lawmakers with close ties to politicians in East Africa. +He accuses them of treating some of the countries they deal with as social and political experiments. +""It has become sort of a Frankenstein's monster and is the family going to take responsibility for the empowerment they +have given to some of these politicians?,"" asked Jeff Sharlet. +In his book, Sharlet specifically refers to politicians in Uganda proposing an anti-gay law that would criminalize +homosexuality. The law, which could be passed within weeks despite international condemnation, includes possible +punishment by death. +Anti-gay laws were recently passed in Burundi, are being discussed in Rwanda, and could soon be expanded in Kenya +and Tanzania. +The American group Sharlet calls The Family is also known as The Fellowship. It organizes an annual National Prayer +Breakfast with the U.S. president and foreign guests, but besides that activity shuns publicity and does not openly list its +members. +But Sharlet says more American reporters are looking into the group and its alleged ties to Africa. These include helping +African politicians with money so they can push socially conservative agendas. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762743 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762743 Date: 06/30/2015 +""We see reporters in Iowa, in Pennsylvania, and in Oklahoma, going to their elected representatives who have a link to +this whole thing and saying 'tell us about the link',"" he said. ""They are not accusing them of anything, they are saying, +'You have a relationship with the Ugandan government, what is the nature of that relationship? And, are you going to +use that influence to oppose this legislation that seems to be supported by some of your allies?"" +Religious leaders like Rick Warren have also been under the microscope. He is the senior pastor of the California-based +Saddleback church, which is active in both Uganda and Rwanda. +After being questioned about his role by U.S. media, Warren issued a video message on the Internet, denying his +support for the law in Uganda. +""As an American pastor, it is not my role to interfere with the politics of other nations, but it is my role to speak out on +moral issues and it is my role to shepherd other pastors who look to me for guidance, and it is my role to correct lies and +errors and false reports when others associate my name with a law that I had nothing to do with, [and which] I +completely oppose and I vigorously condemn,"" said Rick Warren. ""I am referring to the pending law under consideration +by the Ugandan parliament, known as the Anti-Homosexuality Bill."" +Rwanda's parliament is also working to pass a law which would criminalize homosexuality but Warren has yet to address +his church's role in that matter. In 2005, he called Rwanda a ""purpose driven nation."" Warren went with dozens of +American evangelicals to hold meetings with government ministers, lawmakers and donate materials to churches across +Rwanda. +Several American lawmakers who have been linked to the Fellowship, like Nevada Senator John Ensign have called the +Ugandan law proposal ""outrageous"". But others like Kansas Senator Sam Brownback, who went to Uganda in 2004, +have said they do not know enough about the bill to comment. +The executive director of the U.S.-based International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission, Cary Alan Johnson, +welcomes some of the questions now being asked. +""It is a debate that has to happen and we are glad it is happening,"" said Cary Alan Johnson. ""Rwanda and Uganda are +both countries with deeply spiritual people and as of late we have understood that some of the more conservative +elements in the United States have been funding the most violent and homophobic discourses about homosexuality."" +Johnson says those seeking to push an agenda should understand the consequences of their actions. He warns anti-gay +laws could worsen already high HIV levels in east Africa. +""The impact of these laws on HIV prevention is extremely worrisome to us,"" he said. ""Laws we are talking about in +Uganda, Rwanda, will make it impossible for groups to do HIV education that targets men who have sex with men or +that targets bisexual people and we know that there is a strong impact of HIV on this community and on society in +general."" +Lisa Laurel Weinberg, from the Massachusetts Lutheran Social Services Human Rights Protection Project, says the +situation is already very difficult. In her other job as an asylum attorney, she recently helped a young Ugandan woman' +win asylum to the United States. The woman's apartment had been raided by police while she was inside with her +girlfriend. +""The police broke in and brought them to the police station and raped them in what is called a corrective rape,"" said Lisa +Laurel Weinberg.

That ties into her ""brand"" +and into a reality.

We want to contain extremist, nihilistic, violent ideologies and +movements whereever they might take root, and a good way to do that is to focus on development, on women, +on technology, on education. +The power of diplomacy rests on two foundations. On the one hand, there is the reality and potentiality of +military force. Without having the capacity to defend, and to project force, diplomacy is inherently weak and +ineffectual. +On the other hand, development is the other foundation upon which successful diplomacy can be built. It's the +carrot to the military's stick. And the State Department has an integral role to play in both the diplomatic and +developmental parts of that tripod (while also being understanding of, and when necessary supportive of, +implementing the military part). +The connective tissue of security, prosperity and humanity is, as you suggest, ""purpose,"" or more prosaically - +""morality.""

Una prensa que aguarda paciente los productos del dialog°, en lugar +de los productos del odio, del enfrentamiento o de la guerra, es en sí misma un simbolo +democratic°. A traves de ustedes, el mundo ha hecho una vigilia por la paz en Honduras. +Como es de su conocimiento, el martes 7 de julio los dos sectores involucrados en +este conflict° solicitaron mi mediaciOn para dialogar sobre sus dfferencias. Acepte sin +dudarlo, porque estoy convencido de que ningtin costarricense debe negarse jamas a +permitir que prevalezca el dialog° sobre la intransigencia, el perdOn sobre el rencor o el +acuerdo sobre la fuerza. El mandato de nuestra historia es darle la 'nano a quien quiera +transitar las sendas de la democracia, porque sabemos que eso no disminuye sino que +dignifica a nuestro pueblo. For eso, desde el dia de ayer abri las puertas de :mi propio +hogar para recibir a los representantes hondurerios. Ambos sectores expusieron dos +versiones muy distintas de los hechos ocurridos en su pals, antes y despues del 28 de jtmio +pasado. Asi se empiezan a sanar las heridas de un conflicto: hablando de frente con la +verdad. +Ayer les dije que esto tomaria tiempo. Pero insistire hasta el cansancio que en la +larga epopeya de la humanidad, el paso dedsivo es siempre el pr-imero. Los hermanos +hondurerios han dado aqui ese paso, se han visto a los ojos y han hablado con franqueza. +Eso es, por su cuenta, un logro capital para su pals. Ambos sectores han afirmado su +convicciOn de que es con el verbo, y no con la polvora, con que se escribiran los trazos de +su reconciliacion. En ningtin momento hemos escuchado insultos ni amenazas en las +conversaciones sostenidas. En ningtin momento los sectores se han dejado de escuchar. +Ambos han acordado continuar con las conversaciones a la mayor brevedad posible, y no +descansar hasta akanzar un acuerdo que resuelva esta crisis. +Costa Rica continuara mediartdo mientras se lo sigan pidiendo los sectores +involucradas. Si algo en nuestra historia o en nuestra cultura puede servir para traer +trartquilidad a nuestros hermanos, no dudaremos en prestar nuestro servicio. Porque +sabemos que en ausencia de dialog°, una visi6n debe necesariamente aniquilar a la otra. +Solo en el dialog°, dos versiones clistintas de una misma realidad pueden convivir. Para +quienes no creen en lo que estamos haciendo aqui, para quienes fustigan nuestras +intenciones, les digo que no sere yo, ni los delegados que tan arduamente han trabaj ado, +quienes desmentiremos sus acusaciones. Seran los acuerdos que los sectores alcancen. Sera +la paz que regresara a Honduras. Sera la estabilidad que solo surgira de las voluntades +conjuntas de ambos sectores. Estas puertas son a prueba de balas retoricas, y asi como hace +veintidos arios no nos desalentaron los oscuros presagios de quienes veian el dialog° como +un obstaculo, y no como un fin, esta vez tampoco nos van a desalentar. No mandare a +callar a nadie. Nunca ha sido mi estilo. Yo lucho por principios y no contra personas.

And, with much of Shanghai's foreign correspondent corps +preoccupied with more pressing news elsewhere in China, it didn't receive much coverage.

And, until two weeks ago, there was absolutely no reason to believe that a participation +agreement would ever be signed.

As +recently as last month, one of its members — Frank Lavin, a former US ambassador to Singapore and +Undersecretary of Commerce — issued a press release falsely claiming that the US Congress had ""adopted"" a +resolution in support of the US pavilion.

For those of us +following the events, the question was no longer ""How badly will the US damage its relationship with China if +it doesn't participate?"" but instead became ""What's worse for US-China relations? Turning down Shanghai's +Expo invite or continuing the current, incompetent effort?"" +The July 1 appointment of Jose Villarreal as Commissioner General to the US pavilion effort seems to have +changed the equation. A lawyer with ties to the Clintons, Secretary of State Clinton empowered him to oversee +the US effort. He didn't waste any time, either, arriving in Shanghai on Monday, and managing to pull of the +signing on Friday. One person familiar with Villarreal's role described it as the arrival of an ""adult"" to a chaotic +situation that badly needed one.

And, with much of Shanghai's foreign correspondent corps +preoccupied with more pressing news elsewhere in China, it didn't receive much coverage. Fair enough, I think. +However, insofar as the US pavilion – or lack thereof– had become an increasingly thorny diplomatic issue +between China and the United States, the signing ceremony was an important signal that some kind of +resolution was at hand. +I've been following the mostly sad saga of the US pavilion for several months now, both on Shanghai Scrap, +and elsewhere. And, until two weeks ago, there was absolutely no reason to believe that a participation +agreement would ever be signed. Shanghai Expo, Inc., a non-profit authorized by the US State Department to +fund-raise, design, build, and operate a US pavilion, had failed to raise sufficient funds to break ground. At +yesterday's signing ceremony, Beatrice Camp, the US Consul General in Shanghai blamed the underwhelming +fundraising on the global economic crisis – a point that was picked up by the Chinese media. No doubt, the +economic crisis played a role, but as Camp and others close to the US effort surely know, the other important +factor was the inexperienced and increasingly erratic trio running the non-profit Shanghai Expo, Inc. As +recently as last month, one of its members – Frank Lavin, a former US ambassador to Singapore and +Undersecretary of Commerce – issued a press release falsely claiming that the US Congress had ""adopted"" a +resolution in support of the US pavilion. This incident, and others like it, succeeded in alienating potential +donors (including major US corporations with operations in China), vast swaths of the US expatriate business +community in Shanghai, and – most crucially – members of the Shanghai government. For those of us +following the events, the question was no longer ""How badly will the US damage its relationship with China if +it doesn't participate?"" but instead became ""What's worse for US-China relations? Turning down Shanghai's +Expo invite or continuing the current, incompetent effort?"" +The July 1 appointment of Jose Villarreal as Commissioner General to the US pavilion effort seems to have +changed the equation. A lawyer with ties to the Clintons, Secretary of State Clinton empowered him to oversee +the US effort. He didn't waste any time, either, arriving in Shanghai on Monday, and managing to pull of the +signing on Friday. One person familiar with Villarreal's role described it as the arrival of an ""adult"" to a chaotic +situation that badly needed one. Indeed, if there's one telling detail to the handful of official and press accounts +of yesterday's signing, it's the total absence of the Shanghai Expo, Inc. members from the official comments +and photos (US Consulate coverage here; Shanghai government account here), none of whom live or work in +Shanghai, anyway. If that was a conscious decision, it was a wise one. +A final point. As Villarreal conceded, the US effort must still raise roughly half of its $61 million budget. I +suspect that – with Villarreal in charge of the effort – reluctant wallets will become less so. Regardless, though, +150 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762769 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762769 Date: 06/30/2015 +this raises a still unresolved question: namely, what are the actual fundraising rules for the US pavilion effort? +Back in 2007, the State Department indicated that it would not sign a participation agreement with Expo 2010, +Inc until all funds were raised for a pavilion. Apparently, that ill-conceived policy has changed. I say apparently +because, up until now, the State Department has refused to release the ""action plan"" that governs fundraising +and other rules related to the US pavilion in Shanghai. As a result of this official intransigence, a Freedom of +Information Act request has been filed to obtain this document(s?). Why the secrecy? It's anybody's guess, and +according to the State Department's FOIA office, we can keep guessing until Thanksgiving — it's around then +that they'll get around to releasing the documents. +[UPDATE: Just received notice that groundbreaking for the US pavilion will be on July 17 at 10:30 AM. +Secretary of Commerce Gary Locke will be present.] +IRS Circular 230 Notice Requirement: This communication is not given in the form of a +covered opinion, within the meaning of Circular 230 issued by the United States Secretary +of the Treasury.

Even as we +meet here today, America supports now the restoration of the democratically elected president of Honduras, +even though he has strongly opposed American policies. We do so not because we agree with him. We do so +because we respect the universal principle that people should choose their own leaders."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case NOTF-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762786 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762786 Date: 06/30/2015 +The immediate lesson was to teach Russia to stay out of Georgia and Ukraine. The message, however, also +resonated throughout Latin America, undercutting the polarization efforts of Venezuelan President Hugo +Chavez. +That the administration has joined with the Organization of American States in condemning the ouster of +Honduran President Manuel Zelaya has left Chavez puffing a lot of hot air with no one to fight against. +When three Chavez allies -- the presidents of Argentina, Ecuador and Paraguay -- sought unsuccessfully to +escort Zelaya back to Honduras on Venezuelan planes, they looked irresponsible for setting off violence that +resulted in one death. Clinton, meanwhile, working quietly with Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Chile and other +moderate countries, has brought the two opposing Honduran camps together in a mediation with one of the +grand old men of Latin America, Costa Rican Oscar Arias, a Nobel Peace laureate. +There is now genuine movement toward a peaceful resolution of the crisis. +The United States, long seen as a bully in the region, is suddenly being seen as respectful and wise. The +flummoxed Chavez could only come up with a patently hilarious formula in which the ""Yankee empire"" was +still the villain in Honduras but Obama may not be responsible because he is more like a prisoner of the +empire."" +More fundamentally, Obama and Clinton, perhaps because neither is particularly experienced in Latin America, +have approached the region with fresh eyes and wonder what all the fuss is about. The Moscow speech and their +actions in Honduras underline that the Cold War really is over. +Chavez is a nuisance, but Washington has no enemies in Latin America. Our major interests are immigration, +crime and trade, not ideologies, as much as the extremists on the right and the left there and here might want to +make it so. +So, are we sacrificing Honduras? No. Zelaya is the main culprit in this crisis, but what counts is the rule of law. +His hand has been slapped very hard. Allowing him to serve out the last six months of his term while not +holding the referendum that would have opened the way to succession has a better chance of bringing peace and +stability to the country than the current standoff. +The bigger question will be: What have the rest of us learned? We have all been pushing Latin Americans to +uphold the rule of law, but beyond simply insisting that Zelaya was elected, few in the OAS, the European +Union or other critics have been willing to give much credence to Hondurans for trying to do just that. +The Honduran Supreme Court, as it is empowered to do under the constitution, ordered the army to arrest +Zelaya after he began to carry out a referendum for a constitutional convention that the court, Congress and his +own attorney general said was illegal. Yet, many Latin American and European governments still call it a +""military coup"" or, as the Associated Press called it several days afterward, a ""military power grab."" Clinton and +Obama dropped calling it a coup. +There are gray areas having to do with presidential powers and the fact that the Honduran constitution prohibits +extradition of citizens. The army exiled Zelaya in consultation with civilian leaders to avoid precisely the sort of +violence seen when Zelaya tried to return. He forced the country and its institutions against the wall, and for +that he should take his medicine. +Edward Schumacher-Matos is syndicated by the Washington Post Writers Group.

Will update you when I hear from her, and if there is anything else I should do, let me know. All +best, Jackie +ps Saw that Foreign Minister Yeo was on your schedule today. Fyi, he is one of my favorite Singaporeans +because of this 2007 speech on China, which he posted to his blog (!): +April 12, 2007 +Foreign Minister George Yeo's speech at a dinner organised by the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy on 5 +February 2007, which he gave off-the-cuff. +Thank you Kishore for your kind words. Dear friends, ladies and gentlemen. I was in India two weeks ago, had +a good trip, spent nine days there. While in Calcutta after calling on the Chief Minister, I had a bit of time to +look around so I attended a mass at Mother Theresa's house. Very interesting gathering; there was a Singapore +nun there, she had been there for over ten years; Sister Maria Tony. I wondered why someone from Singapore +would want to dedicate her life to picking up the dead and the dying in the back alleys of Calcutta and living +that life. There were many nuns there who were in their ninth year. They take their first vow in the fifth year, +renewable every year. In the tenth year they have to decide - final vows for eternity. So if you are not sure, +please, there's a way out; if you are sure, then you're in the room. So the priest gave a very tough sermon and +while he was talking, I could hear the din of traffic noise outside, in the streets of Calcutta. Then suddenly, I +heard the call of the muezzin. Now this is a Hindu city. I told myself, I thought wow, what diversity in this +country, India, and its ability to internalise this diversity and to find it unremarkable that the tiny woman from +Albania should come into their midst, become one of them and then when she was beatified, was celebrated as +an Indian, on the way to canonization. +China and India in that comparison- China is not India. China has a very different sense of itself; its deep +internal construction is very different. Superficially there are similarities, as there is between China and the US +and China and Europe. But if you look into it's deep construction, it is very different. When we talk about +China's future and China in the 21st century, how China will behave in a world community, China's attitudes +towards democracy, towards law, towards social justice. It is important first to look into this deep construction +because that is their nature. Naturally we should not be deterministic, there is nothing inevitable in human +history, but when we understand its nature, it becomes easier to anticipate its moves and you'll be less suprised +by its actions. +A few years ago, the Chinese government embarked on a major project which is its dynastic duty- to write the +history of the Qing dynasty, the Manchus, from 1368 to 1644. Ever since the Han dynasty, roughly +contemporaneous with the Roman Empire, they developed a historiographic tradition of each dynasty writing +the history of the previous period. So Sima Qian of the Later Han wrote of the earlier Han and the entire period +before that; then later on they wrote about the Later Han, Jin wrote up the Three Kingdoms; Ming wrote up the +Yuan: The Yuan, which was Mongol in its origins wrote up the Sung. Sung wrote up the Tang dynasty which +was the Classical Period. The last dynasty, the Qing, collapsed in the Republican Revolution of 1911; this is +now 2007. I think in 2003, they embarked on this project, 'The Official History of the Qing dynasty'. When the +former Vice Premier Li Lanqing was in Singapore recently, I asked him about it. He said ""we told the scholars +not to rush this project"". I asked him how long it would take to write this history. He said it would take many +years, easily 10 years. I said, ""have you collected the material?"" He said yes. I asked, ""external sources?"" He +said yes, external sources too. All the countries, the Vatican, European countries, the whole lot; all assembled - +24 official histories, this would be the 26th. And Li's instruction to them was not to be too quick to draw +conclusions! +Now Mao Tze Tung was a revolutionary, he was a great revolutionary. He overturned everything before but he +knew his history, he read the 24 histories, and not only did he read them, he annotated them. But he wrote with +a terrible, illegible scrawl, so scholars had to decipher those scrawls. Then they wrote commentaries on his +commentaries and now it's all published. It is very difficult for the Chinese to depart from their own history +because it's the same great plains, the same mountains more or less, the same neighbours more or less and they +have seen the same patterns recur. So a long time ago during the Ming dynasty they wrote up the romantic +period of the Three Kingdoms. The first line said: ""Below heaven, great movements, great currents, long +disunity leads to unity and long unity leads to disunity."" So they accept as a part of their own deep nature that +there are cycles in their civilisation; that they have ups and downs. In recent years, when you visit them, you +could sense them feeling their own re-emergence, it's a bit scary. In the initial years, they were lacking in +confidence, they asked many questions, but now they know that there is an organic vitality. It is like an +adolescent who watches his own development, and conscious of it. I say scary because for those of us who live +on the periphery of that empire, what happens there will radiate its influence on us and eventually, to a greater +or lesser degree envelope us. +How do we see China? I think to begin with, it's important not to try and, from an intellectual viewpoint, +transpose our own experiences on to China, because I believe it will develop according to its own logic, +according to its own DNA. It is growing now, it will continue to grow, it will develop its own contradictions +and one day those contradictions, many years from now, will lead to its own decline. So they say at the +beginning of a dynasty the taxes are light but the treasury is full, and at the end of a dynasty, the taxes are +crushing but the treasury is empty. The important thing to realise about China is that some things are deeply +resistant to change. Take Confucius. Every time they had to overturn a dynasty, they had to overturn Confucius, +because Confucius justified the status quo. So throughout the 19th century, whether it was the Taiping +Revolution, the Communist movement or Sun Yat Sen; they spent their lives debunking Confucius. It reached +its final moment when they criticised Zhou Enlai together with Confucius- no- Lin Biao together with +Confucius. That was the last paroxysm. Today, Hu Jingtao said [in Mandarin He Xie She Hui ], ""harmonious +society"". Suddenly you hear the resonance of Confucius coming back. And everywhere in the world on the +pattern of Alliance Francaise, the Goethe Institute, the USIA, they establish Confucius Institutes and the +learning of the Confucianist classics are coming back with remarkable force in China, not yet in the state +curriculum but just parents wanting to teach their children the Confucianist ditties. Now why is this important? +From Mao to Deng to Jiang Zemin, at every stage, they re-interpreted Marx. They are comfortable with the +young Marx, the idea of the superstructure on the economic base, the idea that politics is concentrated +economics- that they like. But the class struggle, they downplay. They talk about the Three Represents, the +progressive forces, the progressive elements, they nurture those. Now Hu Jingtao says ""harmonious society"", +""peaceful re-emergence"". This mindset has a certain attitude towards law, has a certain attitude towards religion, +towards democracy and towards foreign policy and I would like, to deal with each in turn. +Joseph Needham many years ago, I think in the 60's, the man who wrote The Science and Civilisation of China, +that great encyclopedic work; he said its not that the Chinese have no legal tradition. In fact, by his estimation, +the Chinese had a greater corpus of legal codification than the West. A greater corpus of legal codification than +the West! Surprise, surprise. But the idea that the Emperor is below the law, that is completely alien to their +thinking. Where did that idea come from? Well in the West, you may trace it back to Hammurabi, you may +trace it back to Moses, to Greece, to Rome. But if you trace the evolution of that DNA, it goes back, way back, +into its early beginnings. The Chinese had a very different evolutionary starting point. It was not in law, it was +in an idea they call '1i' which is proper conduct among human beings. They believe, deep in their instincts, that +law is only a means towards justice, and that when the outcome of law is perverse, then that law must be +overridden, because justice, proper conduct, the proper relationship among human beings must take +precedence. And to suddenly say that all that had happened in the previous dynasties, all that the earlier +histories have summarised, are all wrong and that they should instead adopt something with its origins in +Western Europe, which had as its crowning moment the crowning of Charlemagne by the Pope in the year 800; +to them, what are you talking about? For the Chinese, laws are more like regulations, means towards a larger +end. Their attitude towards democracy follows a parallel pattern. +Democracy is not an end in itself, democracy is a means and they are quite happy to consider democracy as a +useful means towards government and that at appropriate places and appropriate levels, democracy is good. So +at the village and the township level they have democracy, it is a universal franchise. They approve a slate of +candidates, and they have fierce elections, fierce campaigning, and those who are incompetent or arrogant or +despotic, they get chucked out. But once you reach the level of the cities and the provinces, they say no. No +direct democracy. Why not? Because they do not believe, with their view of the universe, that that is the way to +produce good government. Any more than the Catholic Church believes that the way to elect the Pope is +through universal franchise. That the parishioners should decide who should be the parish priest. The Parish +Council, maybe, that's ok. But the parish priest? Bishops? Universal franchise? That's against God's laws. They +have that kind of instinct embedded in them, it is not Communist, it is just Chinese. And they know that too +much democracy, invariably leads to 'localitis'; of favouritism towards friends, relatives, people who are from +the same villages whom we have a relationship with. +We have the same problem in Singapore, in fact this problem exists throughout East Asia. Till today, apart from +Singapore, among Chinese communities and among many East Asian communities, the idea that ultimate +control of the business should go outside the family is unpersuasive. You talk to Li Ka-shing, you talk to Robert +Kwok, you talk to Lim Soe Liong, you talk to any of them; they will go back to the family. Why? Because they +believe that in the end, what matters at the deepest level, is trust. And the family guarantees you that trust. +This is also the Indian wisdom. So you have the Marwaris controlling the economy of Calcutta, you have the +Parsees, you have Sindhis, of which Kishore is a member, you have the Chettiars. They operate on the basis of +deep trust and at a completely different level from that of contract law. And because they distrust local +affiliations, in two dynasties, Ming and Qing, no senior official could serve within 400 miles of where he was +born. No local official to serve within 400 miles, so in other words, in Singapore, no Singaporean can govern +Singapore. They go beyond that, today there's almost no province in China where the provincial leader is from +that province. Now you consider this, you transpose this onto Europe, it's as if routinely, the President of France +is not French. And if you are a German, you are disqualified as a Chancellor of the Republic. And an Italian +cannot be trusted to serve in Rome. Ancient wisdom! What is remarkable is this is accepted as legitimate. If you +are Cantonese and you have a Northener squatting over you, you do not consider it perverse or an abomination. +This is part of life and in fact, you are more likely to have impartial governor than if a local boy were to be +there, because he is more likely to favour those who are related to him or those who are his friends. +So when you talk democracy to the Chinese, it is against this cultural backdrop. So what applied to the Qing +dynasty, the Ming dynasty, they have taken a step further recently in China. They introduced even more rules, +governing the circumstances under which you are disqualified from serving in the area near where you were +born. You can't stay in a ministry for too long, you can't stay in a department for too long beacuse if you stay +too long, you develop affiliations and those affiliations will result in sidedoors and guanxi and corruption. Of +course, many of these rules will still be breached, and there will be scandals from time to time and they will act +on those scandals. For as long as the central leadership is pristine, the system can be maintained. But one day +they will become corrupt, as in so many previous dynasties, and a downward spiral begins. And it is very +difficult in that situation to reverse it. +So I mentioned at the table that for India, it's not a country that can sustain a revolution, because its deep +structure would not allow for it. I think China is a country which can only be renewed through periodic +revolutions. Kishore asked me when- I said well maybe in 200 years time because these are long cycles and +they expect as a matter of course that the history of the People's Republic would not be written by the People's +Republic. It will be written by the next dynasty. Except that right now they say we shouldn't call it a dynasty, +we are now democrats, we are a republic, there is no Emperor...Well, whatever term you call it, it will be done +much later. +Let me now talk about their attitude towards religion. Being a Roman Catholic I follow quite closely the ups +and downs in their relationship with the Vatican and I find it quite fascinating. The Jesuits, when they went to +China in the Ming dynasty, hoped that they could convert the Emperor, and all of China would become Catholic +and a great mission would have been achieved. They never succeeded. Some of the brightest minds from +Europe went there. Matteo Ricci, he corrected the Chinese calendar, he repaired the clocks in the palace, he saw +the throne, but he never got to meet the Emperor and he died in China. And his tomb, it's in the compound of +the Beijing Party School today. And the church which he founded is still there today. 'Li Matou', that's what he +called himself, he applied for permission to be buried in China and he was given that permission. Then when +the Manchus swept southwards, in 1644, the missionaries thought now they had a chance, ""the Manchus will be +a bit more accomodating towards us, we will yet Christianise China"". So if you read the despatches of the +missionaries during that period, the Tartar Wars they described it, they were full of hope. But not a chance. +They appealed to the Second Emperor, Kangxi. +""Can we send more missionaries?"" ""No problem"". ""Can we have them all report to a papal legate in Beijing"" +""No such thing"". The Emperor imposed one condition: ""you can send as many priests as you want to China but +they must die in China, they cannot leave after that"". You see, instinctively, the Chinese, when they see the +Catholic Church, they see someone like themselves, someone whose claim to its members is total. And for +whom that loyalty is a jealous one. +Mind you they do not try to control everything; they just control the big things, dogma, doctrine. After that you +are left on your own and you are financially independent, but on the big issue of who appoints ministers and +provincial secretaries, it's the same as the Pope appointing Bishops and Bishops ordaining Priests and governing +this vast empire, whether we're talking about the Chinese empire or the Catholic empire. They have about the +same number of members in the world which is why their interaction is a complex and difficult one. And over +the appointment of Bishops, both seek ultimate authority. In the end they have got to find a way to resolve it. I +can anticipate the Vatican's argument that ""we are not of this realm, we are of the other realm, so please we are +not in conflict"". As for the Chinese leaders, their attitude towards religion from the earliest days is to keep +religion at arm's length.

So you always treat visitors better +than your own family members because the visitor is capricious, he can harm you so make sure you fit him in. +Those who are within your authority, you can always maintain order anyway. This is the way, in their minds, +the universe is ordered. So I can understand why the Koreans, the Japanese, the Vietnamese, to some extent, the +Singaporeans, they feel uncomfortable about what they see as a repetition of a pattern they have seen many +times before in the past. Will the Chinese change this principle of foreign policy, I think they have, because, +never in their history have they met, have they existed in close contact with competing centers of power, with +the US, with Europe, India, and you are no longer separated by oceans which cannot be crossed, mountains +which cannot be crossed, now they are connected. So they are making adjustments. +It will be interesting to watch how they handle their Olympics; if the Olympics become an exercise of pure +Chinese nationalism, I think the international reaction against China will be very severe. But I think the Chinese +will be sophisticated. I expect they will organise cheer teams for the Americans, for the Japanese, so that there +is an appearance of courtesy and common humanity. They are very careful to ensure that their words fit +conditions today. +But let me say in their defence that many of these methods they use arise out of fear, not out of a desire to +dominate. If you analyse the old tributary system, those who sent tributes got more than they gave in return. It +became a racket. So the Japanese merchants competed to get tokens from [Ryukyu] in order to be able to do the +China trade because it meant a lot of money. The Chinese are fearful of foreigners. They are fearful of the +Russians to the north, the Muslims to the West, the Indians across the Himalayas, but mostly the Americans +across the Pacific. Their strategy is to keep the temperature low, low profile, hide the shine of your armour, the +shine of your sword, just play the game and concentrate on economic development. Internally will they make +preparations? I have no doubt, because they have a deep fear. Is their intention to dominate, to conquer, the way +the European powers did in the past? I don't think so. I don't think there is a great desire to turn non-Chinese +into Chinese. Maybe Korea, maybe Vietnam, maybe Mongolia, who at various points in time were part of their +greater empire, they might consider worth civilising. But beyond that, Sinicising Indians, Russians? No, I don't +think they will want to do that. So as they now become stronger and more powerful, I believe that while their +old nature will re-assert itself, they will also be reacting to us. If they find the world a threatening place, they +will develop their own responses to those threats. +Quite early in the day, they wanted to neutralise Southeast Asia, Asean. It had never been an area which +threatened them, historically. So they didn't worry about Southeast Asia as a threat. But resources, sea lanes, +they go through Southeast Asia. And they made a dramatic move a few years ago. Zhu Rongji was here for the +ASEAN-China summit. He said, ""free trade agreement"". At that time when he announced it, the leaders of +ASEAN almost fell off their chairs. We thought of China an economic threat to us. Not as a partner. Took us +almost a year to digest the implications and to say yes, let's negotiate. Step by step. And all the time China was +assuring us that we would benefit more than they would benefit. When the Framework Agreement was signed +by Zhu Rongji in 2002 in Phonm Penh, he made two remarkable statements. He said if after 10 years, the +agreement benefits China more than it benefits Southeast Asia, let us renegotiate it. I can never imagine the +American USTR, or the European Trade Commissioner, talking like that. I mean in a contract, a deal is a deal, +it's settled for eternity. Then he said: ""China does not seek for itself an exclusive position in Southeast Asia"", so +he acknowledged that we were not just going to date one girl, we intended to be promiscuous from the +beginning. Towards Northeast Asia, I think it is very complicated, because there is so much history and legacy. +Towards Central Asia, towards Russia, they have deep fears. Towards America, it has become a relationship +bound together at so many points, a rupture would become more and more unthinkable. But it is going to be a +very difficult relationship, it will be the most important and most difficult relationship to manage in this +century. If it's badly managed there will be war, if it's properly managed there will be another generation of +peace and hundreds of millions of people in the world would be raised out of the depths of poverty. In this area, +you are the experts, but whenever I see China and watch its moves, I go back to its deep nature because it's not +easy for a country so vast, with such a sense of itself, to depart too much from its deep nature.

Will update you when I hear from her, and if there is anything else I should do, let me know. All +best, Jackie +ps Saw that Foreign Minister Yeo was on your schedule today. Fyi, he is one of my favorite Singaporeans +because of this 2007 speech on China, which he posted to his blog (!): +April 12, 2007 +Foreign Minister George Yeo's speech at a dinner organised by the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy on 5 +February 2007, which he gave off-the-cuff. +Thank you Kishore for your kind words. Dear friends, ladies and gentlemen. I was in India two weeks ago, had +a good trip, spent nine days there. While in Calcutta after calling on the Chief Minister, I had a bit of time to +look around so I attended a mass at Mother Theresa's house. Very interesting gathering; there was a Singapore +nun there, she had been there for over ten years; Sister Maria Tony. I wondered why someone from Singapore +would want to dedicate her life to picking up the dead and the dying in the back alleys of Calcutta and living +that life. There were many nuns there who were in their ninth year. They take their first vow in the fifth year, +renewable every year. In the tenth year they have to decide - final vows for eternity. So if you are not sure, +please, there's a way out; if you are sure, then you're in the room. So the priest gave a very tough sermon and +while he was talking, I could hear the din of traffic noise outside, in the streets of Calcutta. Then suddenly, I +heard the call of the muezzin. Now this is a Hindu city. I told myself, I thought wow, what diversity in this +country, India, and its ability to internalise this diversity and to find it unremarkable that the tiny woman from +Albania should come into their midst, become one of them and then when she was beatified, was celebrated as +an Indian, on the way to canonization. +China and India in that comparison- China is not India. China has a very different sense of itself; its deep +internal construction is very different. Superficially there are similarities, as there is between China and the US +and China and Europe. But if you look into it's deep construction, it is very different. When we talk about +China's future and China in the 21st century, how China will behave in a world community, China's attitudes +towards democracy, towards law, towards social justice. It is important first to look into this deep construction +because that is their nature. Naturally we should not be deterministic, there is nothing inevitable in human +history, but when we understand its nature, it becomes easier to anticipate its moves and you'll be less suprised +by its actions. +A few years ago, the Chinese government embarked on a major project which is its dynastic duty- to write the +history of the Qing dynasty, the Manchus, from 1368 to 1644. Ever since the Han dynasty, roughly +contemporaneous with the Roman Empire, they developed a historiographic tradition of each dynasty writing +the history of the previous period. So Sima Qian of the Later Han wrote of the earlier Han and the entire period +before that; then later on they wrote about the Later Han, Jin wrote up the Three Kingdoms; Ming wrote up the +Yuan: The Yuan, which was Mongol in its origins wrote up the Sung. Sung wrote up the Tang dynasty which +was the Classical Period. The last dynasty, the Qing, collapsed in the Republican Revolution of 1911; this is +now 2007. I think in 2003, they embarked on this project, 'The Official History of the Qing dynasty'. When the +former Vice Premier Li Lanqing was in Singapore recently, I asked him about it. He said ""we told the scholars +not to rush this project"". I asked him how long it would take to write this history. He said it would take many +years, easily 10 years. I said, ""have you collected the material?"" He said yes. I asked, ""external sources?"" He +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015 +said yes, external sources too. All the countries, the Vatican, European countries, the whole lot; all assembled - +24 official histories, this would be the 26th. And Li's instruction to them was not to be too quick to draw +conclusions! +Now Mao Tze Tung was a revolutionary, he was a great revolutionary. He overturned everything before but he +knew his history, he read the 24 histories, and not only did he read them, he annotated them. But he wrote with +a terrible, illegible scrawl, so scholars had to decipher those scrawls. Then they wrote commentaries on his +commentaries and now it's all published. It is very difficult for the Chinese to depart from their own history +because it's the same great plains, the same mountains more or less, the same neighbours more or less and they +have seen the same patterns recur. So a long time ago during the Ming dynasty they wrote up the romantic +period of the Three Kingdoms. The first line said: ""Below heaven, great movements, great currents, long +disunity leads to unity and long unity leads to disunity."" So they accept as a part of their own deep nature that +there are cycles in their civilisation; that they have ups and downs. In recent years, when you visit them, you +could sense them feeling their own re-emergence, it's a bit scary. In the initial years, they were lacking in +confidence, they asked many questions, but now they know that there is an organic vitality. It is like an +adolescent who watches his own development, and conscious of it. I say scary because for those of us who live +on the periphery of that empire, what happens there will radiate its influence on us and eventually, to a greater +or lesser degree envelope us. +How do we see China? I think to begin with, it's important not to try and, from an intellectual viewpoint, +transpose our own experiences on to China, because I believe it will develop according to its own logic, +according to its own DNA. It is growing now, it will continue to grow, it will develop its own contradictions +and one day those contradictions, many years from now, will lead to its own decline. So they say at the +beginning of a dynasty the taxes are light but the treasury is full, and at the end of a dynasty, the taxes are +crushing but the treasury is empty. The important thing to realise about China is that some things are deeply +resistant to change. Take Confucius. Every time they had to overturn a dynasty, they had to overturn Confucius, +because Confucius justified the status quo. So throughout the 19th century, whether it was the Taiping +Revolution, the Communist movement or Sun Yat Sen; they spent their lives debunking Confucius. It reached +its final moment when they criticised Zhou Enlai together with Confucius- no- Lin Biao together with +Confucius. That was the last paroxysm. Today, Hu Jingtao said [in Mandarin He Xie She Hui ], ""harmonious +society"". Suddenly you hear the resonance of Confucius coming back. And everywhere in the world on the +pattern of Alliance Francaise, the Goethe Institute, the USIA, they establish Confucius Institutes and the +learning of the Confucianist classics are coming back with remarkable force in China, not yet in the state +curriculum but just parents wanting to teach their children the Confucianist ditties. Now why is this important? +From Mao to Deng to Jiang Zemin, at every stage, they re-interpreted Marx. They are comfortable with the +young Marx, the idea of the superstructure on the economic base, the idea that politics is concentrated +economics- that they like. But the class struggle, they downplay. They talk about the Three Represents, the +progressive forces, the progressive elements, they nurture those. Now Hu Jingtao says ""harmonious society"", +""peaceful re-emergence"". This mindset has a certain attitude towards law, has a certain attitude towards religion, +towards democracy and towards foreign policy and I would like, to deal with each in turn. +Joseph Needham many years ago, I think in the 60's, the man who wrote The Science and Civilisation of China, +that great encyclopedic work; he said its not that the Chinese have no legal tradition. In fact, by his estimation, +the Chinese had a greater corpus of legal codification than the West. A greater corpus of legal codification than +the West! Surprise, surprise. But the idea that the Emperor is below the law, that is completely alien to their +thinking. Where did that idea come from? Well in the West, you may trace it back to Hammurabi, you may +trace it back to Moses, to Greece, to Rome. But if you trace the evolution of that DNA, it goes back, way back, +into its early beginnings. The Chinese had a very different evolutionary starting point. It was not in law, it was +in an idea they call '1i' which is proper conduct among human beings. They believe, deep in their instincts, that +law is only a means towards justice, and that when the outcome of law is perverse, then that law must be +overridden, because justice, proper conduct, the proper relationship among human beings must take +precedence. And to suddenly say that all that had happened in the previous dynasties, all that the earlier +histories have summarised, are all wrong and that they should instead adopt something with its origins in +Western Europe, which had as its crowning moment the crowning of Charlemagne by the Pope in the year 800; +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015 +to them, what are you talking about? For the Chinese, laws are more like regulations, means towards a larger +end. Their attitude towards democracy follows a parallel pattern. +Democracy is not an end in itself, democracy is a means and they are quite happy to consider democracy as a +useful means towards government and that at appropriate places and appropriate levels, democracy is good. So +at the village and the township level they have democracy, it is a universal franchise. They approve a slate of +candidates, and they have fierce elections, fierce campaigning, and those who are incompetent or arrogant or +despotic, they get chucked out. But once you reach the level of the cities and the provinces, they say no. No +direct democracy. Why not? Because they do not believe, with their view of the universe, that that is the way to +produce good government. Any more than the Catholic Church believes that the way to elect the Pope is +through universal franchise. That the parishioners should decide who should be the parish priest. The Parish +Council, maybe, that's ok. But the parish priest? Bishops? Universal franchise? That's against God's laws. They +have that kind of instinct embedded in them, it is not Communist, it is just Chinese. And they know that too +much democracy, invariably leads to 'localitis'; of favouritism towards friends, relatives, people who are from +the same villages whom we have a relationship with. +We have the same problem in Singapore, in fact this problem exists throughout East Asia. Till today, apart from +Singapore, among Chinese communities and among many East Asian communities, the idea that ultimate +control of the business should go outside the family is unpersuasive. You talk to Li Ka-shing, you talk to Robert +Kwok, you talk to Lim Soe Liong, you talk to any of them; they will go back to the family. Why? Because they +believe that in the end, what matters at the deepest level, is trust. And the family guarantees you that trust. +This is also the Indian wisdom. So you have the Marwaris controlling the economy of Calcutta, you have the +Parsees, you have Sindhis, of which Kishore is a member, you have the Chettiars. They operate on the basis of +deep trust and at a completely different level from that of contract law. And because they distrust local +affiliations, in two dynasties, Ming and Qing, no senior official could serve within 400 miles of where he was +born. No local official to serve within 400 miles, so in other words, in Singapore, no Singaporean can govern +Singapore. They go beyond that, today there's almost no province in China where the provincial leader is from +that province. Now you consider this, you transpose this onto Europe, it's as if routinely, the President of France +is not French. And if you are a German, you are disqualified as a Chancellor of the Republic. And an Italian +cannot be trusted to serve in Rome. Ancient wisdom! What is remarkable is this is accepted as legitimate. If you +are Cantonese and you have a Northener squatting over you, you do not consider it perverse or an abomination. +This is part of life and in fact, you are more likely to have impartial governor than if a local boy were to be +there, because he is more likely to favour those who are related to him or those who are his friends. +So when you talk democracy to the Chinese, it is against this cultural backdrop. So what applied to the Qing +dynasty, the Ming dynasty, they have taken a step further recently in China. They introduced even more rules, +governing the circumstances under which you are disqualified from serving in the area near where you were +born. You can't stay in a ministry for too long, you can't stay in a department for too long beacuse if you stay +too long, you develop affiliations and those affiliations will result in sidedoors and guanxi and corruption. Of +course, many of these rules will still be breached, and there will be scandals from time to time and they will act +on those scandals. For as long as the central leadership is pristine, the system can be maintained. But one day +they will become corrupt, as in so many previous dynasties, and a downward spiral begins. And it is very +difficult in that situation to reverse it. +So I mentioned at the table that for India, it's not a country that can sustain a revolution, because its deep +structure would not allow for it. I think China is a country which can only be renewed through periodic +revolutions. Kishore asked me when- I said well maybe in 200 years time because these are long cycles and +they expect as a matter of course that the history of the People's Republic would not be written by the People's +Republic. It will be written by the next dynasty. Except that right now they say we shouldn't call it a dynasty, +we are now democrats, we are a republic, there is no Emperor...Well, whatever term you call it, it will be done +much later. +Let me now talk about their attitude towards religion. Being a Roman Catholic I follow quite closely the ups +and downs in their relationship with the Vatican and I find it quite fascinating. The Jesuits, when they went to +China in the Ming dynasty, hoped that they could convert the Emperor, and all of China would become Catholic +and a great mission would have been achieved. They never succeeded. Some of the brightest minds from +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762814 Date: 06/30/2015 +Europe went there. Matteo Ricci, he corrected the Chinese calendar, he repaired the clocks in the palace, he saw +the throne, but he never got to meet the Emperor and he died in China. And his tomb, it's in the compound of +the Beijing Party School today. And the church which he founded is still there today. 'Li Matou', that's what he +called himself, he applied for permission to be buried in China and he was given that permission. Then when +the Manchus swept southwards, in 1644, the missionaries thought now they had a chance, ""the Manchus will be +a bit more accomodating towards us, we will yet Christianise China"". So if you read the despatches of the +missionaries during that period, the Tartar Wars they described it, they were full of hope. But not a chance. +They appealed to the Second Emperor, Kangxi. +""Can we send more missionaries?"" ""No problem"". ""Can we have them all report to a papal legate in Beijing"" +""No such thing"". The Emperor imposed one condition: ""you can send as many priests as you want to China but +they must die in China, they cannot leave after that"". You see, instinctively, the Chinese, when they see the +Catholic Church, they see someone like themselves, someone whose claim to its members is total. And for +whom that loyalty is a jealous one. +Mind you they do not try to control everything; they just control the big things, dogma, doctrine. After that you +are left on your own and you are financially independent, but on the big issue of who appoints ministers and +provincial secretaries, it's the same as the Pope appointing Bishops and Bishops ordaining Priests and governing +this vast empire, whether we're talking about the Chinese empire or the Catholic empire. They have about the +same number of members in the world which is why their interaction is a complex and difficult one. And over +the appointment of Bishops, both seek ultimate authority. In the end they have got to find a way to resolve it. I +can anticipate the Vatican's argument that ""we are not of this realm, we are of the other realm, so please we are +not in conflict"". As for the Chinese leaders, their attitude towards religion from the earliest days is to keep +religion at arm's length. Those who govern the empire, they are areligious, they can have private religions, but +in matters of their public conduct, they are Confucianist. In public, you are not a Catholic, you are not a +Muslim, you are not a Buddhist. When the Jesuits went to China, they were very impressed by this - that it was +possible to create a moral order based not on religion but on ethics. So impressed, that they wrote about it, and +influenced people like Voltaire and the other Encyclopedists. It helped inspire the Frence revolution- that you +could get rid of the Church, and still maintain a moral order in society. +I've talked about China and law, China and democracy, China and religion, now let me talk about China and +foreign policy which is perhaps your greatest interest; about which I can only talk about generally because you +are the experts in this field. I think it's very difficult for the Chinese to break from their old mindset that they are +[Zhong Guo], the Middle Kingdom, they are at the center of the Universe, then there are the other 'chopsticks +peoples' who are semi-Sinic. I think they consider Singapore to be semi-Sinic. Then there are those who are +beyond that realm, who are what the Greeks would have called Barbarians.

The missile appeared to be a modified surface-to-air missile with a +range of up to 160 km (99 miles), Dong-a Ilbo said. +The two Koreas have fought two deadly naval clashes on their disputed maritime border in the past 10 years and the +North has warned another could happen. +U.S. Defense Department spokesman Geoff Morrell said on Friday there had been no sign of stepped-up North Korean +military activity. +But a U.S. defense official said the United States had observed ""above average activity"" in the past 24 hours at a site in +North Korea that has previously been used to test fire long-range missiles. +South Korea's Defense Ministry said it had seen the number of Chinese fishing boats near the peninsula in the Yellow +Sea drop sharply in recent days and is watching the North's activities for indications of aggression. +74 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762828 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762828 Date: 06/30/2015 +In Singapore, defense ministers of South Korea, Japan and the United States will meet to discuss responses to North +Korea's further provocations, South Korea's defense ministry said. +Andrea Gorog +Watch Officer +Department of State Operations Center +202-647-1512 +75 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762828 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +2151,C05762829,PERSONAL,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2009-06-25T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/27_28_29/DOC_0C05762829/C05762829.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Re: Personal,,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Thursday, June 25, 2009 10:27 PM",F-2014-20439,C05762829,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,I will.

I was in the room +As recriminations fly post-Copenhagen, one writer offers a fly-on-the-wall account of how talks failed +Mark Lynas +guardian.co.ul«http://www.guardian.co.uk> , Tuesday 22 December 2009 19.54 GMT +Copenhagen was a disaster. That much is agreed. But the truth about what actually happened is in danger of being lost +amid the spin and inevitable mutual recriminations. The truth is this: China +wrecked the talks, intentionally humiliated Barack Obama, and insisted on an awful ""deal"" so western leaders would +walk away carrying the blame. How do I know this? Because I was in the room and saw it happen. +China's strategy was simple: block the open negotiations for two weeks, and then ensure that the closed-door deal +made it look as if the west had failed the world's poor once again. And sure enough, the aid agencies, civil society +movements and environmental groups all took the bait. The failure was ""the inevitable result of rich countries refusing +adequately and fairly to shoulder their overwhelming responsibility"", said Christian Aid. ""Rich countries have bullied +developing nations,"" fumed Friends of the Earth International. +All very predictable, but the complete opposite of the truth. Even George Monbiot, writing in yesterday's Guardian, +made the mistake of singiy blaming Obama. But i saw Obama fighting desperately to salvage a deal, and the Chinese +delegate saying ""no"", over and over again. Monbiot even approvingly quoted the Sudanese delegate Lumumba Di-Aping, +who denounced the Copenhagen accord as ""a suicide pact, an incineration pact, in order to maintain the economic +dominance of a few countries"". +Sudan behaves at the talks as a puppet of China; one of a number of countries that relieves the Chinese delegation of +having to fight its battles in open sessions. It was a perfect stitch-up. China gutted the deal behind the scenes, and then +left its proxies to savage it in public. +Here's what actually went on late last Friday night, as heads of state from two dozen countries met behind closed doors. +- Obama was at the table for several hours, sitting between Gordon Brown and the Ethiopian prime minister, IVIeles +Zenawi. The Danish prime minister chaired, and on his right sat Ban Ki-moon, secretary-general of the UN. Probably only +about 50 or 60 people, including the heads of state, were in the room. I was attached to one of the delegations, whose +head of state was also present for most of the time. +What I saw was profoundly shocking. The Chinese premier, Wen Jinbao, did not deign to attend the meetings personally, +instead sending a second-tier official in the country's foreign ministry to sit opposite Obama himself. The diplomatic +snub was obvious and brutal, as was the practical implication: several times during the session, the world's most +powerful heads of state were forced to wait around as the Chinese delegate went off to make telephone calls to his +""superiors"". +Shifting the blame +To those who would blame Obama and rich countries in general, know this: it was China's representative who insisted +that industrialised country targets, previously agreed as an 80% cut by 2050, be taken out of the deal. ""Why can't we +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762860 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762860 Date: 06/30/2015 +even mention our own targets?"" demanded a furious Angela Merkel. Australia's prime minister, Kevin Rudd, was +annoyed enough to bang his microphone. Brazil's representative too pointed out the illogicality of China's position. Why +should rich countries not announce even this unilateral cut? The Chinese delegate said no, and I watched, aghast, as +Merkel threw up her hands in despair and conceded the point. Now we know why — because China bet, correctly, that +Obama would get the blame for the Copenhagen accord's lack of ambition. +China, backed at times by India, then proceeded to take out all the numbers that mattered. A 2020 peaking year in +global emissions, essential to restrain temperatures to 2C, was removed and replaced by woolly language suggesting +that emissions should peak ""as soon as possible"". The long-term target, of global 50% cuts by 2050, was also excised. No +one else, perhaps with the exceptions of India and Saudi Arabia, wanted this to happen. I am certain that had the +Chinese not been in the room, we would have left Copenhagen with a deal that had environmentalists popping +champagne corks popping in every corner of the world. +Strong position +So how did China manage to pull off this coup? First, it was in an extremely strong negotiating position. China didn't +need a deal. As one developing country foreign minister said to me: ""The Athenians had nothing to offer to the +Spartans."" On the other hand, western leaders in particular — but also presidents Lula of Brazil, Zuma of South Africa, +Caldenin of Mexico and many others — were desperate for a positive outcome. Obama needed a strong deal perhaps +more than anyone. The US had confirmed the offer of $100bn to developing countries for adaptation, put serious cuts +on the table for the first time (17% below 2005 levels by 2020), and was obviously prepared to up its offer. +Above all, Obama needed to be able to demonstrate to the Senate that he could deliver China in any global climate +regulation framework, so conservative senators could not argue that US carbon cuts would further advantage Chinese +industry. With midterm elections looming, Obama and his staff also knew that Copenhagen would be probably their only +opportunity to go to climate change talks with a strong +mandate. This further strengthened China's negotiating hand, as did the complete lack of civil society political pressure +on either China or India. Campaign groups never blame developing countries for failure; this is an iron rule that is never +broken. The Indians, in particular, have become past masters at co-opting the language of equity (""equal rights to the +atmosphere"") in the service of planetary suicide — and ieftish campaigners and commentators are hoist with their own +petard. +With the deal gutted, the heads of state session concluded with a final battle as the Chinese delegate insisted on +removing the 1.5C target so beloved of the small island states and low-lying nations who have most to lose from rising +seas. President Nasheed of the Maldives, supported by Brown, fought valiantly to save this crucial number. ""How can +you ask my country to go extinct?"" demanded Nasheed. The Chinese delegate feigned great offence — and the number +stayed, but surrounded by language which makes it all but meaningless. The deed was done. +China's game +All this raises the question: what is China's game? Why did China, in the words of a UK-based analyst who also spent +hours in heads of state meetings, ""not only reject targets for itself, but also refuse to allow any other country to take on +binding targets?"" The analyst, who has attended climate conferences for more than 15 years, concludes that China +wants to weaken the climate regulation regime now ""in order to avoid the risk that it might be called on to be more +ambitious in a few years' time"". +This does not mean China is not serious about global warming. It is strong in both the wind and solar industries. But +China's growth, and growing global political and economic dominance, is based largely on cheap coal. China knows it is +becoming an uncontested superpower; indeed its newfound muscular confidence was on striking display in +Copenhagen. Its coal-based economy doubles every decade, and its power increases commensurately. its leadership will +not alter this magic formula unless they absolutely have to. +Copenhagen was much worse than just another bad deal, because it illustrated a profound shift in global geopolitics. +This is fast becoming China's century, yet its leadership has displayed that multilateral environmental governance is not +only not a priority, but is viewed as a hindrance to the new superpower's freedom of action. I left Copenhagen more +despondent than I have felt in a long time. After all the hope and all the hype, the mobilisation of thousands, a wave of +optimism crashed against the rock of global power politics, fell back, and drained away. + +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762860 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +2171,C05762861,AID DIR,H,"Mikulski, BAM",15,2009-05-30T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_18-20M/DOC_0C05762861/C05762861.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Re: Aid dir,,"Mikulski, BAM (Mikulski) .",,"Saturday, May 30, 2009 8:25 AM",F-2014-20439,C05762861,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"No. I'm in.

That much is agreed. But the truth about what +actually happened is in danger of being lost amid the spin and inevitable mutual +recriminations. The truth is this: China +wrecked the talks, intentionally humiliated Barack Obama, and insisted on an +awful ""deal"" so western leaders would walk away carrying the blame. How do I +know this? Because I was in the room and saw it happen. +China's strategy was simple: block the open negotiations for two weeks, and then +ensure that the closed-door deal made it lock as if the west had failed the +world's poor once again. And sure enough, the aid agencies, civil society +movements and environmental groups all took the bait. The failure was ""the +inevitable result of rich countries refusing adequately and fairly to shoulder +their overwhelming responsibility"", said Christian Aid. ""Rich countries have +bullied developing nations,"" fumed Friends of the Earth International. +All very predictable, but the complete opposite of the truth. Even George +Monbiot, writing in yesterday's Guardian, made the mistake of singly blaming +.Obama. But I saw Obama fighting desperately to salvage a deal, and the Chinese +delegate saying ""no"", over and over again. Monbiot even approvingly quoted the +Sudanese delegate Lumumba Di-Aping, who denounced the Copenhagen accord as ""a +suicide pact, an incineration pact, in order to maintain the economic dominance +of a few countries"". +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762863 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762863 Date: 06/30/2015 +Sudan behaves at the talks as a puppet of China; one of a number of countries +that relieves the Chinese delegation of having to fight its battles in open +sessions. It was a perfect stitch-up. China gutted the deal behind the scenes, +and then left its proxies to savage it in public. +Here's what actually went on late last Friday night, as heads of state from two +dozen countries met behind closed doors. Obama was at the table for several +hours, sitting between Gordon Brown and the Ethiopian prime minister, Meles +Zenawi. The Danish prime minister chaired, and on his right sat Ban Ki-moon, +secretary-general of the UN. Probably only about 50 or 60 people, including the +heads of state, were in the room. I was attached to one of the delegations, +whose head of state was also present for most of the time. +What I saw was profoundly shocking. The Chinese premier, Wen Jinbao, did not +deign to attend the meetings personally, instead sending a second-tier official +in the country's foreign ministry to sit opposite Obama himself. The diplomatic +snub was obvious and brutal, as was the practical implication: several times +during the session, the world's most powerful heads of state were forced to wait +around as the Chinese delegate went off to make telephone calls to his +""superiors"". +Shifting the blame +To those who would blame Obama and rich countries in general, know this: it was +China's representative who insisted that industrialised country targets, +previously agreed as an 80% cut by 2050, be taken out of the deal. ""Why can't we +even mention our own targets?"" demanded a furious Angela Merkel. Australia's +prime minister, Kevin Rudd, was annoyed enough to bang his microphone. Brazil's +representative too pointed out the illouicality of China's position. Why should +rich countries not announce even this unilateral cut? The Chinese delegate said +no, and I watched, aghast, as Merkel threw up her hands in despair and conceded +the point. Now we know why - because China bet, correctly, that Obama would get +the blame for the Copenhagen accord's lack of ambition. +China, backed at times by India, then proceeded to take out all the numbers that +mattered.

The long-term target, of global 50% +cuts by 2050, was also excised. No one else, perhaps with the exceptions of +India and Saudi Arabia, wanted this to happen. I am certain that had the Chinese +not been in the room, we would have left Copenhagen with a deal that had +environmentalists popping champagne corks popping in every corner of the world. +Strong position +So how did China manage to pull off this coup? First, it was in an extremely +strong negotiating position. China didn't heed a deal. As one developing country +foreign minister said to me: ""The Athenians had nothing to offer to the +Spartans."" On the other hand, western leaders in particular - but also +presidents Lula of Brazil, Zuma of South Africa, Calderon of Mexico and many +others - were desperate for a positive outcome. Obama needed a strong deal +perhaps more than anyone. The US had confirmed the offer of $100bn to developing +countries for adaptation, put serious cuts on the table for the first time (17% +below 2005.1evels by 2020), and was obviously prepared. to up its offer. +Above all, Obama needed to be able to demonstrate to the Senate that he could +deliver China in any global climate regulation framework, so conservative +senators could not argue that US carbon cuts would further advantage Chinese +industry. With midterm elections looming, Obama and his staff also knew that +Copenhagen would be probably their only opportunity to go to climate change + talks with a strong +mandate. This further strengthened China's negotiating hand, as did the complete +lack of civil society political pressure on either China or India. Campaign +groups never blame developing countries for failure; this is an iron rule that +is never broken. The Indians, in particular, have become past masters at +co-opting the language of equity (""equal rights to the atmosphere"") in the +service of planetary suicide - and leftish campaigners and commentators are +hoist with their own petard. +With the deal gutted, the heads of state session concluded with a final battle +as the Chinese delegate insisted on removing the 1.5C target so beloved of the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762863 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762863 Date: 06/30/2015 +small island states and low-lying nations who have most to lose from rising +seas. President Nasheed of the Maldives, supported by Brown, fought valiantly to +save this crucial number. ""How can you ask my country to go extinct?"" demanded +Nasheed. The Chinese delegate feigned great offence - and the number stayed, but +surrounded by language which makes it all but meaningless. The deed was done. +China's game +All this raises the question: what is China's game? Why- did China, in the words +of a UK-based analyst who also spent hours in heads of state meetings, ""not only +reject targets for itself, but also refuse to allow any other country to take on +binding targets?"" The analyst, who has attended climate conferences for more +than 15 years, concludes that China wants to weaken the climate regulation +regime now ""in order to avoid the risk that it might be called on to be more +ambitious in a few years' time"". +This does not mean China is not serious about global warming. It is strong in +both the wind and solar industries. But China's growth, and growing global +political and economic dominance, is based largely on cheap. coal. China knows it +is becoming an uncontested superpower; indeed its newfound muscular confidence +was on striking display in Copenhagen_ Its coal-based economy doubles every +decade, and its power increases commensurately. Its leadership will not alter +this magic formula unless they absolutely have to. +Copenhagen was much worse than just another bad deal, because it illustrated a +profound shift in global geopolitics. This is fast becoming China's century, yet +its leadership has displayed that multilateral environmental governance is not +only not a priority, but is viewed as a hindrance to the new superpower's +freedom of action. I left Copenhagen more despondent than I have felt in a long +time. After all the hope and. all the hype, the mobilisation of thousands, a wave +of optimism crashed against the rock of global power politics, fell back, and +drained away. + +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762863 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +2173,C05762864,MAJOR ECONOMIES FORUM,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-04-29T04:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/17_18_19/DOC_0C05762864/C05762864.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,,,,"Stern, Todd D (S/SECC)",,F-2014-20439,C05762864,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Fyi below +Mills, Cheryl D +Wednesday, April 29, 2009 3:18 AM +Fw: Major Economies Forum","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762864 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +Fyi below +Mills, Cheryl D +Wednesday, April 29, 2009 3:18 AM +Fw: Major Economies Forum +From: Todd Stern +To: Sullivan, Jacob J; Mills, Cheryl D; Abedin, Huma; Steinberg, James B; Lew, Jacob J +Cc: Stern, Todd D (S/SECC) +Sent: Tue Apr 28 23:58:35 2009 +Subject: Major Economies Forum +Quick note to tell you the meeting ended today after lunch and it turned out to be a very positive event.

But, I can return on April 8th or thereafter if you believe that +a meeting would be possible. +In closing, you know me; so if my request has not been expressed in just the right way, please forgive me. +Let me know what you would like me to do next after reading my letter for the SOS which follows. +Best regards, +Ron +""Madame Secretary, +Under the Obama Presidency and your leadership at the U.S. State Department, the U.S. Government has shifted its strategic focus +from a predominantly military-led approach to one using ""smart power"" based on diplomacy, defense and development. The direction +you've chosen and the commitments you have made - to international organizations that advance collective security, to embracing and +implementing global solutions to security - are a vast improvement over prior policy and constitute the best approach to safeguarding +the United States and countries around the world against terrorism. +During my eight years as INTERPOL's Secretary General and based on having visited 123 countries to learn firsthand what their +security concerns were and how to best address them, my INTERPOL team and I have identified a number of serious global security +gaps which put Americans and citizens all over the world at risk to acts of terrorism and other serious crimes but which could be easily +closed. Surprisingly, and until now, no government has made INTERPOL and the role of international law enforcement in protecting +its citizens from acts of terrorism a real priority. Consequently, significant gaps in global security remain which require the immediate +attention of Heads of State or Ministers of State, Justice and Interior and the private sector. +These dangerous but resolvable problems include +1.The 850 million international arrivals that pass through the world's airports each year without being checked against the only global +database of over 10 million stolen and lost passports developed and managed by INTERPOL. +2.The culture which discourages countries from issuing international alerts when terrorists escape from prison. +3. The gap in policing where terrorists are arrested without their fingerprints and DNA profiles being compared against global +databases. +4. The failure of far too many countries to notify INTERPOL when their citizens' passports have been reported lost or stolen, which +significantly undermines any screening of passports used to enter the U.S. or other counties. +5. The lack of global anti-crime and anti-corruption centers, which leaves us under-protected against the scourge of human +trafficking, slavery, and other serious transnational crimes. +6. The absence of robust facilities world-wide where police can work, train and exchange information under the umbrella of +INTERPOL. +7. The threat to the rule of law that requires well-trained police at the national and international levels especially in post-conflict +areas like Afghanistan. +INTERPOL has launched its Global Security Initiative in order to enhance support for developing effective and growing programs in +each of these seven areas. Our capacity to address these threats can grow not only with greater resources but also with a larger +personal commitment to the kinds of policies that reflect the direction that you and President Obama have chosen in the name of +national security. +INTERPOL is a global international police organization with 187 member countries. Our Constitution prevents us from getting +involved in matters of a political, religious, military or racial nature. We have one goal and one goal only: to help law enforcement +worldwide keep their citizens and visitors to their country safe from terrorism and other forms of serious international crime. +89 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762902 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762902 Date: 06/30/2015 +Our successes over the last several years have been nothing short of extraordinary. More terrorists and dangerous international +criminals have been identified, located and arrested than ever before. The security of more borders has been enhanced. More police +information has been exchanged globally. More international pedophiles have been caught. More transnational crime groups have +been exposed. +Against the backdrop of this success, it remains the case that neither Heads of State nor Ministers of Foreign Affairs, Justice and +Interior have made the kind of investment in INTERPOL worldwide that can help to keep their citizens safe at home and +abroad. They should and you can be a leader among them. +It is my strong belief that in your capacity as U.S. Secretary of State, you can show the world that by making INTERPOL an integral +part of the U.S.'s new ""smart power"" strategy, all of the world's citizens will be safer than they otherwise would be. I would welcome +any opportunity to travel to Washington or anywhere in the world to meet with you to offer recommendations for solving the problems +outlined above and to discuss the range of resources required to meet these challenges. +Sincerely, +Ronald K.

You will see that in spite of our efforts to +protect the son, the Brazilian family chose to make a spectacle outside the Consulate this morning by parading Sean +through a crowd. Ms. Lamego recently visited the U.S. where she met with members of Congress and others to explain +all that the Brazilian Central Authority was doing to reunite Sean and his father under the Hague Convention. The +delays we saw in this case were largely the result of a wealthy, well connected family able to influence court decisions. +We are all relieved and thrilled to see this long overdue but very happy ending. I should also highlight the amazing +work done by US Mission Brazil. The consular staff, Charge, Acting DCM (Marie Damour, the Consul General in Brasilia), +LegATT, RSO, and a host of others all played a role in this successful return. My OCS DAS, Michele Bond, and her +dedicated team also played a big role in communicating with David, his lawyers, Congress, and the press.

While there were +disagreements at times over tactics, we all agreed that we were working towards the same goal: the safe return of +Sean. +We particularly appreciate the strong support from the Secretary.

OIG gave us the draft report in October, and SRAP/SCA/INL immediately sent a joint response to +OIG (attached), highlighting that we were already working on many of the issues highlighted in the report. +Given the change in policy and our letter to them, we found it pretty egregious that the OIG didn't report on the changes +underway or adjustments already made, as the report is being portrayed in the press as currently applicable. Michael +Keays on the Afghan desk and Peggy, who both help to oversee CN issues, are already working on a letter to OIG +expressing our strong concern about the report and the process which got us to this point, and Vikram and his team are +ginning up press points which also note that we have already begun to robustly address many of these points (I've cc'ed +them all on this). +If you'd like to talk further, I'm happy to come up to your office at some point this morning to discuss. +Dan +From: Lew, Jacob J +Sent: Thursday, December 24, 2009 8:10 AM +To: Feldman, Daniel F; Jones, Paul W +Cc: Campbell, Piper +Subject: IG Report +Have you seen the IG report on the counternarcotics program (reported in NYT) this am?

You will see that in spite of our efforts to +protect the son, the Brazilian family chose to make a spectacle outside the Consulate this morning by parading Sean +through a crowd. Ms. Lamego recently visited the U.S. where she met with members of Congress and others to explain +all that the Brazilian Central Authority was doing to reunite Sean and his father under the Hague Convention. The +delays we saw in this case were largely the result of a wealthy, well connected family able to influence court decisions. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762996 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05762996 Date: 06/30/2015 +We are all relieved and thrilled to see this long overdue but very happy ending. I should also highlight the amazing +work done by US Mission Brazil. The consular staff, Charge, Acting DCM (Marie Damour, the Consul General in Brasilia), +LegATT, RSO, and a host of others all played a role in this successful return. My OCS DAS, Michele Bond, and her +dedicated team also played a big role in communicating with David, his lawyers, Congress, and the press. We had +Members of Congress, former Assistant Secretaries and US Ambassadors all pitching in. While there were +disagreements at times over tactics, we all agreed that we were working towards the same goal: the safe return of +Sean. +We particularly appreciate the strong support from the Secretary. Many people will try to take credit for today's happy +reunion but it was the Secretary's continued concern and interest in this case that made the difference. We could not +have provided a better gift to David Goldman during this season of giving.

This most despicable man is not accepting the fact that, despite his life long relationships with influential +authorities in Brazil, he was unable to win the case and Sean is finally being reunited with his only real father. +I just hope that David and the Goldman family find enough time to recover their lives and their relationship with Sean. +They need time more than anything else and now it is up to the US government to guarantee that David Goldman will +not have to face the maternal family once again in the US courts where, according to Mr. Tostes last declaration to the +Brazilian press, he will ""fight to defend the child"". +Please allow David Goldman to live in peace with his son and have the life that he deserves after fighting so much for so +many years. +In my name and in the name of all the staff of the Brazilian Central Authority I wish David, Sean, and their family all the +best and a most happy life once they are finally back in the United States. +And to all of you who worked so much in support of this case, our deepest gratitude.

recommended on Sunday that state prosecutors charge +Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman for bribery, fraud and money laundering. Lieberman, whose +ultranationalist Yisrael Beiteinu party is a key partner in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's ruling coalition, +accused police of waging a ""campaign of persecution"" against him and said their allegations were +unfounded. In a statement, police said a nine-year investigation found ""a basis of evidence"" against Lieberman +of bribe-taking, fraud, violation of public confidence and obstruction of justice with regard to suspected money +laundering. The investigation, conducted mostly while Lieberman held other government posts, focused on the +transfer of millions of Israeli shekels to shell companies and accounts belonging to people close to him, the +statement said. Lieberman, in a statement released by his spokesman, said there was ""no basis for the police +recommendation"" and expressed confidence he would not be indicted. Police handed their recommendation to +state prosecutors who have to decide whether to charge Lieberman, the latest in a line of Israeli public figures to +face police questioning. Ehud Olmert was forced to resign as prime minister a year ago over a corruption +probe, though he has denied any wrongdoing. The Moldavan-born Lieberman has been denounced by Israeli +Arabs as a racist for his party's introduction of legislation to curb the liberties of citizens deemed as disloyal to +the state, moves widely seen as targeting Israel's Arab minority. +REUTERS +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F +-1014-20439 Doc No. C05763139 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2320,C05763140,YEAR AND REPORT,sullivanjj@state.gov,H,80,2009-12-29T05:00:00+00:00,2015-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCAll_1_1-29_JuneWEB/10_11_15_16/DOC_0C05763140/C05763140.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JuneWeb,Year end report,'sullivanjj@state.gov.,H ,,"Tuesday, December 29, 2009 12:16 PM",F-2014-20439,C05763140,06/30/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,I feel a little guilty asking about the report but could we get an outline by the weekend?,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763140 Date: 06/30/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: H +Sent: Tuesday, December 29, 2009 12:16 PM +To: 'sullivanjj@state.gov. +Subject: Year end report +I feel a little guilty asking about the report but could we get an outline by the weekend? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763140 Date: 06/30/2015 + " +2321,C05763144,WHITEHAVEN COCKTAIL TABLES,rrh.interiors,AbedinH@state.gov,81,2009-08-03T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_031/DOC_0C05763144/C05763144.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,,,"Abedin, Huma",,F-2014-20439,C05763144,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Abedin, Huma +Monday, Au ust 03 2009 3:34 AM +rrh.interiors H +Re: Whitehaven cocktail tables +She's headed to africa tomorrow (monday) evening.

The Haitian people didn't fare well under the decade of +Aristide tyranny and corruption following that U.S. intervention. But key Democrats, who secured contracts with the Haitian +government, did. +This sad chapter in U.S. foreign policy is a reminder of the immortal words of the French statesman Charles Talleyrand: ""Countries +don't have friends, they have interests."" The Clinton administration had interests in Haiti. And that fact is worth recalling as +President Barack Obama, defying all logic, insists that Castro-ally Manuel Zelaya be restored to the presidency in Honduras. +The democratically elected Aristide took office in February 1991. When the national legislature considered a no-confidence vote +against his prime minister, Rene Freya!, in August, he called on his supporters to take to the streets. The mobs set property on fire +and threatened members of the opposition. The Associated Press quoted the vice president of the Chamber of Deputies saying that +many representatives were ""afraid to sleep in their own homes."" After weeks of terror, Aristide was removed from office by the +military and went into exile in Washington. +Haiti's assets in the U.S. were frozen. But then-President George H. W. Bush released them to Aristide on the grounds that he was +the legitimate president. The largest source of hard currency was the income to the telephone monopoly, Haiti Teleco, from U.S. +carriers terminating phone traffic in the country. In the summer of 1994 Haiti's legislature claimed it had proof that as of April 15, +Aristide had drawn $49.9 million on the telephone account, which had originally contained $53 million. +Once restored to power, Aristide ruled Haiti for a decade, either as president or as the power behind the throne during the +presidency of Mr. Freyal. It wasn't until he was chased out of the country a second time, in 2004, that Haitians were able to +document that their government had been doing business in telecommunications with Americans who were close to Mr. Clinton. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763204 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763204 Date: 07/31/2015 +Haitians had been complaining to me since the late 1990s about the relationship between Haiti Teleco and a company called Fusion +Telecommunications. They alleged that Fusion had ties to Joseph P. Kennedy II, a vociferous supporter of Aristide, and that instead +of paying the official settlement rate that all U.S. carriers were supposed to pay, it was getting a special price. The company would +not even acknowledge that it operated in Haiti. What I did learn at that time was that Fusion was run by former Democratic Party +Finance Chairman Marvin Rosen. Mr. Kennedy was on the board. So too was Mr. Clinton's former aide, Thomas ""Mack"" McLarty, +and former Mississippi Democratic Gov. Ray Mabus. +The U.S.-Haiti telecom route is one of the busiest in the hemisphere. But weird things happened when I tried to learn about Fusion's +Haiti business. +Contracts with foreign monopolies are supposed to be public information at the Federal Communications Commission, but when I +asked for the Haiti file I was told it had gone missing. The FCC asked companies for duplicate copies of contracts so it could +recreate the public file. But Fusion went to court to keep me from seeing its agreement. I won that fight. +The Fusion contract shows that while the settlement rate for terminating calls to Haiti was 46 cents a minute, Fusion paid just 12 +cents. When I saw the contract I immediately thought of how Haitian pleas for U.S. help during the decade of Aristide abuses went +unheeded. Then I thought of Talleyrand. +The Honduran constitutional crisis is very different than the Haiti case, in that the Honduran military has never been in charge. +When Mr. Zelaya was deported, the presidency was passed, as the constitution requires, to the president of Congress. Mr. Zelaya's +party is still governing the country. +Yet there are important lessons from Bill Clinton's Haiti policy that hold for Honduras. One is that the U.S. is more than capable of +misjudging a constitutional crisis and of backing the wrong guy. When it does, there is no guarantee it will rectify the problem. +Another lesson from Haiti is that a Caribbean despot can offer good terms to foreign investors. Since the Haiti episode Venezuela's +Hugo Chavez has conducted a courtship with Democrats too. He gives Mr. Kennedy's Citizen's Energy company cut-price home- +heating oil that the former Massachusetts congressman distributes to the poor in order to polish the Democrats' image.

It's disappointing that while we are focused on +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. P2014-20439 Doc No. C05763231 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763231 Date: 07/31/2015 +reviving the economy and fighting two wars, others spend their time pointing fingers in an attempt to promote +their own status."" +Mr. Craig has come under criticism from inside the administration and in Congress for a perceived failure to +manage the political issues that have originated from Mr. Obama's decision to close Guantanamo, according to +officials in the administration and in Congress. This criticism has drawn focus away from president's priorities, +such as health care and energy. +One administration official involved in Guantanamo matters defended Mr. Craig, saying he has been responsive +and helpful when consulted. One member of Congress who has worked with Mr. Craig on detainee issues, +called Mr. Craig ""a smart guy who understands Congress very well."" +As an example of the difficulties Mr. Craig faced, the officials cite the president's move in May to reverse a +decision that would have led to the release of photos showing abuse of terror detainees during the Bush +administration. +Weeks earlier, Mr. Craig brought Mr. Obama plans to release Justice Department memorandums detailing the +Bush administration's policies on terrorism detainees. Some Obama national-security officials complained they +hadn't been consulted, people familiar with the matter said, and the objections prompted weeks of debate inside +the administration. +Mr. Craig and Attorney General Eric Holder won the fight to release the memorandums, with minimal +redactions, but the White House had to move quickly to limit political damage. Former Vice President Dick +Cheney sharpened criticism of Mr. Obama during a televised speech that followed Mr. Obama's own address +intended to explain his national-security vision. +At around the same time, the administration was running into trouble with plans to move to northern Virginia at +least some Chinese Muslim Uighurs who remain detained at Guantanamo despite being cleared for release. The +furor over the possible release of former suspects in the U.S. led Congress to overwhelmingly pass new +restrictions, including barring spending to close the Guantanamo prison. +Mr. Obama signed executive orders during his first week in office to close the Guantanamo prison, to review +the cases of the more than 200 detainees there and to draw up possible changes to detention and interrogation +policies. +At the time Mr. Obama enjoyed public support for his Guantanamo plans, polls showed. Six months later that +public support has dissipated, polls show. +Sen. Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.), one of the administration's allies on the Guantanamo closure, faulted the White +House handling of Guantanamo. ""Announcing the closure without a plan has put in jeopardy the ability to close +Guantanamo. Now public opinion has turned,"" Mr. Graham said Monday. +Mr. Craig, 64 years old, was with Williams & Connolly, a prominent Washington law firm, before joining the +Obama campaign. President Bill Clinton tapped him in 1998 to lead his defense during congressional +impeachment proceedings against the president. +Mr. Craig has built a White House counsel's office of formidable size, with 41 lawyers, according to the +administration's most recent filings. Mr. Bush left office with about 30 lawyers in his counsel's office. +cn +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763231 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763231 Date: 07/31/2015 +In response to earlier questions about why he had built such a large office, Mr. Craig said: ""We have the best +new law firm on the planet.""

Thanks +Observations +1. There is a considerable change in Indonesian attitudes toward the United States. The latest Pew Global Polls +indicate a 73% approval level; the last time it was nearly this level was only in the wake of the generous help +provided after the Tsunami disaster. Higher education officials warmly welcomed our trip and, more importantly, +are eager to increase student flows to America and institutional partnerships between U.S. and Indonesian +universities. The Director General for Higher Education (DGHE) has been given a special budget to promote this, +seven leading schools have been given special budgets by DGHE to explore partnerships, and the Ministry will +support a delegation of leading Indonesian educators and Rectors to visit the U.S. sometime in late fall/early +winter. +2. The Delegation represented over 30 colleges and universities arrived only 9 days after the terrorist bombing of +two hotels in Jakarta, which meant our Indonesian hosts deeply appreciated the show of solidarity we made by +coming. During our visit, the White House announced that President Obama would come to Jakarta in +November. The U.S. Ambassador arranged for the entire Country Team to brief us on our first day; we saw him +and his senior staff three more times during the week for substantive meetings, and he attended the farewell +dinner given by the Minister of Education. We were also scheduled to be received by President Susilo Bambang +Yudhoyono (SBY), who had to cancel at the last minute due to the onset of flu. Earlier in the week we were +hosted by his Spokesman. +3. Nearly every Indonesian senior official with whom we met had been educated in the United States. But many of +the officials just below that level had not had this chance. Some characterized this cohort as a lost generation +and the senior officials all spoke about providing opportunities for this group now (through a ""re-charging"" program +that the Government will fund) for short term study visits and about making sure that the next generation will now +have the chances that the most senior group once did to come to America for especially graduate education. +4. Indonesia, the 4th most populous country in the world, is the sixteenth-leading country of origin for students +coming to the U.S.; number 15 is Hong Kong (8200 students). A little more than 7600 Indonesians are currently +enrolled in U.S. colleges and universities. This is approximately half the number that were enrolled a decade +ago. The decline began in the wake of the Asian Economic Crisis of 1997 and accelerated after 2001 when there +were substantial visa issues and problems — coupled to a growing perception by Indonesians that America was an +unfriendly and not very welcoming country, especially for Muslims. At the same time, major campaigns were +launched by the governments of Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, China, Germany and the Netherlands to recruit +Indonesian students; today there are over 20,000 Indonesians studying in Australia alone. The appeal of these +countries also stems from the relative ease of applying to non-US higher education institutions and the willingness +to take students with low levels of English. +77 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763378 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763378 Date: 07/31/2015 +5. We did not hear a single visa complaint during our meetings and public forum. The U.S. embassy is on track to +issue a record number this year and now estimates that 80 percent of all student visa applications are being +granted. +6. The market for study abroad is probably very large. A recent poll by the Kompas newspaper found that 76.3% of +Indonesian students would prefer to go abroad for at least one degree. There are over 4.5 million final-year high +school students and 4.3 million currently enrolled in Indonesian universities, represent about a 17% enrollment +rate about the college-age cohort. The Government wants to raise this to 25% by 2011. This means adding over +400,000 new university students each year and doubling the size of the nation's entire teaching faculty. There are +approximately 154,000 faculty, but only 7% have any form of advance degrees and fewer than 5,000 have a +PhD. Capacity and quality challenges are huge. +7. We were repeatedly told that Higher Education is a top national priority and that the Government would like a +minimum international student enrollment of 5% in order to continue Indonesia's embrace of globalization nd +better prepare their students for work in a globalized world. A Higher Education Reform effort is just getting +underway, with initial emphasis on improving the quality and government support for science and +technology. There are over 2800 institutions of higher education, but only 86 public universities and +polytechnics. Enrollment in the public schools is about 1 million versus 3.4 million in private higher +education. The Government is coming to terms with how best to regulate the private sector; a recently-passed +law in Parliament calls for all private institutions to be brought under greater government control and oversight +over the next 6 years. All boards of trustees will by then have to report on their activities to a government +agency. +8. A very small number of Americans, 132 in 2006-2007, study abroad for credit and most do so on short term, +faculty-led study visits. The highest this number has ever been was only 215 (in 1994-1995). Most of the +delegation did not immediately see how they could send their students here for semester or year-long programs, +but an increasing number of courses are being taught in English at some leading universities. Almost all felt that +only Gadjah Made University in Yogyakarta was well set up to receive U.S. students and able to offer a significant +number of courses for them to take. Other institutions (especially in Bogor and possibly Bandung) offer promising +sites for field research in agriculture, environmental studies ,and marine science. Bali will remain an important +site for those in programs associated with the humanities and cultural studies. +9. Education Ministry officials stressed their desire to move rapidly to build on the momentum of this visit, create new +institutional partnerships, and expand educational programs under the official US-Indonesia Bilateral Partnership +proposed by President SBY (who went to the US six times during the course of his education and is a graduate of +Webster university) and endorsed by Secretary of State Clinton. +Dr. Allan E.

Jim noted that, in effect, this is a certification. He said that +there is still insufficient transparency on the part of the Mexicans and that it is unclear that their proposal to try +alleged military human rights violations in military courts covers the full range of potential transgressions. Jim +said he would have a meeting later this morning to review with WHA, INL, H and others what needed to be +added, but the goal is to turn it around as quickly as possible and ensure that we do not lose out on the 15 +percent. +Somalia +• Jack said that he had looked at the draft OFAC letter on humanitarian assistance to Somalia and thought it went +about as far as possible in addressing the concerns of USAID, short of granting a license in advance for any +actions that might inadvertently provide material support to terrorist groups. In essence, the OFAC letter tells +AID that they do not need authorization to proceed as they plan. The concern is that USAID may not be fully +satisfied and may try to re-litigate the issue. L was going to join AID in a meeting later today to discuss and +would seek to persuade them to accept the answer they had received from OFAC. +Colombia +• Jim voiced his displeasure over a cable from WHA on the proposed U.S.-Colombia Defense Cooperation +Agreement. I can provide you more details on the high side if you want, but in essence he noted that the policy +has not been fully thought out and that there needs to be a full policy review before we provide such guidance +to the field. +Honduras +B5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763505 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763505 Date: 07/31/2015 +• Jim asked me where we stood on the milair request for the OAS delegation to Honduras.

That release followed a surprise visit by former President Bill Clinton, who held +talks with North Korean leader Kim Jong II. +The 44-year-old technician, surnamed Yoo, worked at an industrial zone in the North's border city of Kaesong, where +about 110 South Korean-run factories employ about 40,000 North Korean workers. He was detained in March for +allegedly denouncing the North's political system. +Though one of the few joint projects still running, the complex's viability has come under questions in recent months as +the North refused to release Yoo and demanded a massive increase in payments and recent at the industrial park. It now +has only a skeletal South Korean staff. +Unification Ministry spokeswoman Lee Jong-joo said Yoo — an employee of the Hyundai Group's North Korean business +arm, Hyundai Asan — had been released and was expected to return to South Korea later Thursday. +""It's fortunate that Yoo is returning to his family, though it's rather late,"" presidential spokesman Lee Dong-kwan said in +a statement.

Our visit here, inconceivable just a few +years ago, is another indication of the remarkable transformation of relations between our two +countries. +During our visit, we met with the National Security Advisor, with Col. Qadafi, and with a +number of advisors to the leader. We expressed our appreciation for Libya's decision to give up +its weapons of mass destruction programs and become a partner in the fight against violent +Islamic extremism, and discussed the ways in which relations between our countries can +continue on a positive and productive path. In particular, we discussed the possibility of +moving ahead with the provision of non-lethal defense equipment to the government of Libya. +As we move ahead with the many ways in which the United States and Libya can work closely +as partners, there remain areas where there remains real work to be done. The status of human +rights and political reform in Libya will remain a chief element of concern. In addition, we +understand that no final decision has been reached regarding the potential release from Scottish +prison of Abdel Basset al Megrahi, the man convicted of involvement in the bombing of Pan +Am Flight 103. Nevertheless, we made clear in our meetings with Libyan officials that we are +resolutely opposed to his release. +We encouraged our Libyan interlocutors to handle this case — which, after all, involves an +individual convicted of killing American citizens — in a fashion that will strengthen the growing +ties of friendship between our two countries, rather than hinder its progress. +We discussed these and other issues in a spirit of mutual respect and friendship.

In exchange, she said, African leaders must deliver democracy and good government. +Mrs. Clinton vowed to stay on top of Africa, even after she gets back to Washington, closely monitoring the issues she +addressed on her tour. She also pointed to Cape Verde, a set of palm-studded islands best known for their beaches and +enormous tourist hotels, as an example of what good leadership can do. +""This is possible,"" she said. ""You create not just economic growth but a sense of human dignity and possibility."" +Kenya. South Africa. Angola. Congo. Nigeria. Liberia. And finally Cape Verde. Mrs. Clinton saw with her own eyes some of +Africa's most promising countries - and some of its most troubled ones. In Kenya, she pushed for the government to +prosecute perpetrators of the postelection violence last year. In South Africa, the big issue was Zimbabwe and how the +South African government should do more to help ease the crisis there. +In Angola, the theme was good governing practices and oil, a strategic concern of the United States given the many +inroads China has made there and elsewhere in Africa in its hunger for natural resources. In Congo, Mrs. Clinton was +passionate about the need to end the nation's rape epidemic. +""The secretary's visit to the heart of the world's deadliest war zone in eastern Congo was a potential game-changer for +that conflict,"" said John Prendergast, a founder of the Washington-based Enough project. ""Her commitment to +addressing root causes such as the conflict minerals that power our electronics industry was a refreshing contrast to the +usual disaster sympathy tourism of visiting dignitaries."" +""Now,"" he added, ""comes the hard part: making good on the promises and living up to the high expectations +engendered by her visit."" +In Nigeria, Mrs. Clinton pressed for electoral changes.

He conveyed to the +generals that it would be hard for the world to view the Burmese elections as free and fair without the +participation of ASSK and her supporters. Asked whether free and fair elections are possible given the Burmese +constitution's structure, Webb said the constitution does not necessarily constrain elections. +• Senator Webb explained he was not a U.S. Government envoy. Asked whether his visit would trigger a review +of U.S. Burma policy, the Senator responded that Secretary Clinton had already called for a review and that he +would discuss his visit with the Secretary. +• Asked why he was received by the Burmese leadership while the UN Secretary General was not, the Senator +referred to his 18-year record of working on Southeast Asia issues and his record in Vietnam. He did not +characterize his own position on sanctions. With respect to human rights groups' fear that his visit would lend +legitimacy the regime, Webb firmly restated his qualifications and record. +• The Senator indicated that he viewed this as a possible opening for progress, but did not make any indications or +suggestions on next steps. +Hugo Rodriguez +Senior Watch Officer +State Department Operations Center +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763756 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763756 Date: 07/31/2015 +202-647-1512 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763756 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2450,C05763757,"DRAFT OF MONDAY, AUGUST 17TH","Abedin, Huma","Valmoro, Lona J",124,2009-08-16T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_032-033/DOC_0C05763757/C05763757.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,"draft of monday, august 17th","Abedin, Huma; H","Valmoro, Lona J ",,"Sunday, August 16, 2009 12:30 PM",F-2014-20439,C05763757,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"«August.17.09.drafttwo.doc>> +8:15 am DEPART Private Residence +En route State Department +[drive time: 10 minutes] +8:25 am ARRIVE State Department +8:25 am PRESIDENTIAL DAILY BRIEFING +8:30 am Secretary's Office +8:30 am DAILY SMALL STAFF MEETING +8:45 am Secretary's Office +Participants: Cheryl, Huma, Jake, Joe, and Lona +8:45 am DAILY SENIOR STAFF MEETING +9:15 am Secretary's Conference Room +Participants: Jack Lew, Bill Burns, Pat Kennedy, P.J.

We sincerely hope that the US government and USAID will take the next step +in working alongside community based organizations in Eastern Congo. +After studying the announcement of the package of assistance that is being prepared to contribute to fighting Gender +Based Violence in the east of Congo, we are mystified to hear that the United States and the Norwegian government +have decided to build for North Kivu a centre of excellence for training doctors in fistula repair and care of mothers. +According to good development principles, outside assistance builds on what is already in place and functioning well, +developing proven capacity and giving local actors the additional tools they need to do a better job. +As friends and supporters of HEAL Africa for many years, we know that this hospital has pioneered fistula repair in North +Kivu and Maniema provinces since 2002, when no one else was interested in caring for women with fistula. They have +four experienced surgeons trained in Addis Ababa fistula hospital, and have performed over 1600 fistula surgeries. HEAL +Africa has a wide network of community based workers to identify and support patients coming and returning. HEAL +Africa's surgical teams perform outreach surgery in North Kivu and Maniema provinces in local general hospitals, linked +at the same time with in-service training of local staff, and referring only the most complicated cases to Goma. These +services are recognized by reputable agencies since the United States through IRC, through UNICEF and through +Engenderhealth, has invested in HEAL Africa staff, equipment and infrastructure over the past five year. The Spanish +Embassy has supported HEAL Africa's prevention of fistula initiatives over the past four years, through their wide- +reaching Safe Motherhood program, working through local associations of mothers-to-be for maternity insurance and +access to safe deliveries. +HEAL Africa has a clearly defined place within the government medical system of North Kivu where they are recognized +as the tertiary referral hospital of the province. Thus they are a recognized clinical training centre of the Medical Faculty +of the University of Goma, offering the first two years of accredited clinical specialization in Pediatrics, Obstetrics and +Gynecology, Family Medicine, Surgery and Orthopedics. +HEAL Africa is a Congolese not for profit association which has completely rebuilt itself after total destruction by the +volcano, with assistance from, many friends in USA and around the world. They have a state of the art surgical suite, but +the buildings hastily erected in the aftermath of the volcano are inappropriate for the quality of care they wish to offer +to patients: they deserve better. +We wish to request that the State Department give assistance to HEAL Africa to increase the quality of their services and +training capacity through the newly announced package of financial aid.

But she is expected also to engage her hosts candidly on two issues that +have been contentious in the past and may be in future: climate change and nuclear +non-proliferation. +In both areas, President Barack Obama's positions are radically different from his +predecessor's. Unlike George W. Bush, Mr Obama understands the need for a rules- +based international system that will regulate and reduce levels of greenhouse gas +emissions and nuclear weaponry. In particular, Mr Bush, like the Republican-controlled +US Senate of the late 1990s, opposed the Kyoto protocol on climate change and the +ratification of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT). He also had little use for the +Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT), even though it was largely an American +initiative going back to the dawn of the cold war. +Those Bush policies suited many Indians. In their view, a global regime to restrict +carbon emissions could hinder India's growth, while the CTBT and the NPT blocked +265 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763800 Date: 06/30/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763800 Date: 06/30/2015 +their right to develop the nuclear-weapons capability their government demonstrated +when it conducted a series of tests in 1998. Under Mr Bush, the US and India +negotiated a pact on co-operation in civil nuclear power that will, when the details of its +implementation are worked out, grant India an exemption from the terms of the NPT. +Mr Obama, however, is committed to ratifying the CTBT, strengthening the NPT, and +pursuing other treaties to prevent the spread of dangerous material and technology. He +also intends for the US to be part of the international effort to replace the Kyoto +protocol with a treaty-based climate-control regime including India, China and other +emerging powers. +As a result, on both proliferation and climate change, many Indians regard Mr Bush +with nostalgia and Mr Obama with muted apprehension. Mrs Clinton, however, is seen +as a staunch friend of India. Her trip there as first lady in 1995 helped break the ice in +US-Indian relations after 50 years of estrangement, paving the way for President Bill +Clinton's visit in 2000. She is therefore in an ideal position to deliver a message in New +Delhi that is both reassuring and cautionary. +The US administration knows it cannot coax or bully India into formally joining the NPT, +nor will it renege on the civil nuclear deal it inherited from Mr Bush. At the same time, +Washington policymakers hope that India's Congress party-led government, now that it +has been returned to power with an increased mandate, will join the US in tightening +the verification authorities of the International Atomic Energy Agency, accelerating +negotiations to stop the production of fissile material (the stuff at the core of nuclear +warheads) and bringing the CTBT into force. +These steps would make India's region safer, since Pakistan might follow suit in a +positive direction, just as it did in a negative one when it conducted a nuclear test +shortly after India's in 1998. A similar appeal to self-interest might prevail with respect +to climate change. Since much of India's population lives in rural and coastal areas, it +is acutely vulnerable to the devastation of agricultural lands and rising sea levels that +come with global warming. +Key figures in India are beginning to accept the idea of a global compact on climate +change. However, they are focused on the 12-to-1 disparity between the average +American's carbon footprint and the average Indian's. Therefore they want progress +towards parity in the final agreement. If the US achieves the 80 per cent cut in +emissions by 2050 that Mr Obama supports, the gap between the US and Indian +footprints per capita would shrink dramatically. +Indians (like many Americans) need to be persuaded to see the urgency of prompt +action. There are few voices more persuasive than that of the Indian scientist R. K. +Pachauri, the head of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change who shared the +2007 Nobel Peace Prize with Al Gore.

I invited them to make their points first +(they often complain that people don't listen to them). They focused on the abuses Zelaya committed before +June 28, pointing out that the San Jose Accord, while'key to a solution, would not restore the institutional +damage done to Honduras. +I said that clearly the San Jose Accords were necessary but not sufficient to clean up all the broken crockery in +Honduras. But they ARE necessary — and urgent. Only by implementing the agreement can Hondurans repair +the other damage with the support of the international community — which is essential for the country's +success. I then reviewed all the carrots and sticks we discussed this morning. I cited the Secretary in +underscoring urgency. Other countries join us, I emphasized, in seeing the mixed messages coming out of +Tegucigalpa as a deliberate delaying tactic designed to move the country toward elections without +Zelaya. The United States and others are losing patience with these tactics and want to see solid commitment +to the Accord now. +The de factos acknowledged that the world perceives them as delaying and that they need to move quickly. I +said they should commit publicly to the San Jose Accord when the OAS FMs are in Honduras next week. They +said that made sense. +Then they brought up another issue. The San Jose Accord grants political amnesty but not amnesty for other +crimes. They can arrest Z for corruption as soon as he returns to the country. I pushed back hard, saying no +one — Arias, the OAS, the United States — understands the San Jose Accord as leading to Z's immediate +arrest. The understanding is that he would resume limited functions with a national unity cabinet until he +hands over power to an elected successor.

Pickering, a former undersecretary of state and U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. +""This was a first meeting to investigate the positions in general terms of both parties without any commitment +on any side."" +U.S. officials say they see the previously undisclosed June meeting between Pickering and the two senior +Hamas officials differently. They said Pickering had not been asked to approach llamas and had no official +standing; U.S. officials learned of the meeting only afterward. Policy toward the Islamist group, they said, +remains what it was under President George W. Bush: that llamas is a terrorist organization with which the +United States will not even sanction a meeting. +Before llamas can participate in peace talks, ""we have made it clear, both publicly and privately, through all +kinds of pronouncements, that we would expect llamas to recognize Israel and renounce violence and agree to +abide by prior agreements,"" Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said Wednesday in Washington. +Still, the Pickering meeting took place in the context of Obama administration efforts to reach out to forces in +the Middle East that were shunned under Bush. It was held in between President Obama's June 4 speech in +Cairo, in which he acknowledged popular support for llamas among Palestinians, and a June 25 speech by +llamas leader Khaled Meshal, in which Meshal said the armed movement was ready to deal with the +international community in order to reach an agreement with Israel. Pickering, co-chair of the nonprofit +International Crisis Group, would not comment. +As the Obama administration's Middle East diplomacy intensifies -- with U.S. officials jetting to capitals such +as Damascus that were off limits at the end of the Bush administration, and offering dialogue with Iran -- +Hama remains one of the most significant outliers. +777 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763811 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763811 Date: 07/31/2015 +Hamas is, at once, a political party, a paramilitary group that targets Israeli civilians and troops, a provider of +charitable services, and a religious organization. The group seized control of the Gaza Strip in June 2007 in a +clash with the Fatah movement of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. The authority continues to +hold sway in the West Bank. +Even as Obama pushes for a renewal of talks between Abbas and Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, +there is no clear plan for how to address the presence of an organization that won 2006 Palestinian legislative +elections but does not recognize Israel and remains committed to armed insurrection against the Jewish state. +Israeli officials say that since their offensive in Gaza ended earlier this year, they have been focused on +preventing Hamas from rearming itself with smuggled or homemade weapons. Beyond that, U.S. and Israeli +strategy rests on a hope that improving the economy and security in the West Bank will undercut popular +support for llamas and strengthen Palestinian moderates. +""If we can energize that process, it will do more to delegitimize llamas than anything else,"" said Netanyahu +spokesman Mark Regev. +The International Monetary Fund reported Wednesday that recent changes in Israel's network of checkpoints, as +well as improvements in security, have put the West Bank economy on track for growth of as much as 7 percent +this year. Gaza's economy remains under an Israeli blockade, with unemployment estimated at 40 percent or +more. +In an interview after touring the West Bank this week, special Middle East envoy Tony Blair said that, if current +trends continue, llamas would soon ""have a choice"" as Gaza's 1.5 million residents slip further behind +Palestinians in the West Bank. +A recent lull in rocket fire and other attacks, coupled with Meshal's speech and a visit to Gaza by former U.S. +president Jimmy Carter, has led to speculation that llamas is trying to earn a place at the negotiating table. +Others argue that the group is simply pausing to rearm and will never accept the conditions laid out by the +United States and others -- including a renunciation of violence and acceptance of earlier Palestinian +agreements acknowledging Israel. +Yuval Diskin, head of Israel's internal security organization, Shin Bet, said at a closed briefing in May that he +saw practically no chance of a political compromise and that Israel would ultimately have to overthrow Hamas +in Gaza, according to an account of his comments provided by someone who attended the briefing. +Meshal's speech, delivered from Damascus, the Syrian capital, was considered an overture to Obama. ""The +purpose of the speech was to convince the West that llamas is a partner for dialogue,"" retired Israeli Brig. Gen. +Shlomo I3rom, director of the Israeli-Palestinian Relations Program at Tel Aviv University, wrote in a recent +paper. ""The speech will make it easier for elements in Western Europe and within Obama's administration that +support dialogue with llamas to advance their position."" +But U.S. and Israeli officials say they see little substantive change in Meshal's position. Meshal and other +llamas officials have said that hostilities might end for a decade or more through an extended truce, but that +they are not interested in reconciling with Israel over the long term. +""There is a recognition that Israel exists,"" said Omar Abdel-Razeq, who was elected to the Palestinian +Legislative Council from llamas in 2006 and was recently released from Israeli prison. ""The recognition of its +right to exist is another matter. I don't think time lies on the Israeli side.

""I don't think it will be long coming,"" +Grahame told BBC radio. ""I suspect we might have something maybe tomorrow (Thursday) morning. We will probably go +for compassionate release. It avoids a lot of difficulties."" Scotland's Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill is considering two +requests from Megrahi to be released early, on compassionate grounds or under a prisoner transfer agreement (PTA) +between Britain and Libya. +Andrea &wog +Watch Officer +Department of State Operations Center +202-647-1512 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763835 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2490,C05763838,ZEBARI CALL SHEET,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-08-19T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_032-033/DOC_0C05763838/C05763838.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Re: Zebari call sheet,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Wednesday, August 19, 2009 2:12 PM",F-2014-20439,C05763838,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,I already told them to plan on calling chris hill first.

Although exact +numbers have not been confirmed, media is reporting that approximately 75 people were killed across Baghdad with +over 100 injuries. The most devastating attack appears to have been against the Iraqi MFA, where a VBIED was +exploded in front of the main gate. Zebari's Chief of Staff estimated that there were 35-40 fatalities and up to 40 +injuries resulting from this attack, with 70% of the building damaged. In April, you were the first senior U.S. official to +hold a meeting at the MFA. Deputy Foreign Minister Labid Abbawi, who attended your meeting at the MFA and who's +wife led your meeting with Iraqi war widows, was reportedly slightly injured and quite shaken by the attack.

""We are not +against a dialogue. We are not against any negotiation for the issues of common concern,"" Japan's Kyodo news agency +quoted North Korean ambassador to the United Nations Sin Son Ho as saying Friday. But the ambassador, speaking in +New York, dismissed the possibility of a return to stalled nuclear negotiations involving the two Koreas, the U.S., Japan, +China and Russia, saying ""the six-party talks are gone forever."" The U.S. has offered to hold talks with the North within +the six-nation process if it returns to the negotiating table and takes irreversible steps for denuclearization. Last +weekend, Assistant U.S. Secretary of State Kurt Campbell indicated that the chances for direct talks between North +Korea and the U.S. were slim. ""Our bilateral negotiations are between the U.S. and South Korea about our collective +approach"" to the North, Campbell told reporters in Seoul. Sin said the five other parties to the nuclear talks ""cheated"" +North Korea, accusing them of not implementing what they had agreed under a disarmament-for-aid deal. No more +details were given in the Kyodo report. Sin was not available for comment Saturday. The North Korean mission to the +U.N. declined to comment. North Korea quit the nuclear talks in April to protest a U.N. statement condemning a rocket +launch. North Korea insisted it sent a satellite into orbit, while the U.S. and its allies said it was actually a long-range +missile test. North Korea conducted its second nuclear test in May and a barrage of missile tests in July, drawing +international condemnation and new U.N. sanctions. U.S. and Chinese officials are expected to discuss North Korea's +nuclear programs and other regional security issues at a strategic dialogue next week in Washington. ""North Korea will +be a significant topic, but obviously one among many,"" State Department spokesman Philip Crowley said Friday in +Washington. The U.S. and North Korea engaged in a sharp war of words earlier this week over U.S. Secretary of State +Hillary Rodham Clinton's recent comment likening the regime in Pyongyang to ""small children"" demanding attention. At +a regional security conference in Thailand, Clinton also said the North ""has no friends left.""

But the ambassador, speaking in +New York, dismissed the possibility of a return to stalled nuclear negotiations involving the two Koreas, the U.S., Japan, +China and Russia, saying ""the six-party talks are gone forever."" The U.S. has offered to hold talks with the North within +the six-nation process if it returns to the negotiating table and takes irreversible steps for denuclearization. Last +weekend, Assistant U.S. Secretary of State Kurt Campbell indicated that the chances for direct talks between North +Korea and the U.S. were slim. ""Our bilateral negotiations are between the U.S. and South Korea about our collective +approach"" to the North, Campbell told reporters in Seoul. Sin said the five other parties to the nuclear talks ""cheated"" +North Korea, accusing them of not implementing what they had agreed under a disarmament-for-aid deal. No more +details were given in the Kyodo report. Sin was not available for comment Saturday. The North Korean mission to the +U.N. declined to comment. North Korea quit the nuclear talks in April to protest a U.N. statement condemning a rocket +launch. North Korea insisted it sent a satellite into orbit, while the U.S. and its allies said it was actually a long-range +missile test. North Korea conducted its second nuclear test in May and a barrage of missile tests in July, drawing +international condemnation and new U.N. sanctions. U.S. and Chinese officials are expected to discuss North Korea's +nuclear programs and other regional security issues at a strategic dialogue next week in Washington. ""North Korea will +be a significant topic, but obviously one among many,"" State Department spokesman Philip Crowley said Friday in +Washington. The U.S. and North Korea engaged in a sharp war of words earlier this week over U.S. Secretary of State +Hillary Rodham Clinton's recent comment likening the regime in Pyongyang to ""small children"" demanding attention. At +a regional security conference in Thailand, Clinton also said the North ""has no friends left."" North Korea's Foreign +Ministry described her Thursday as ""a funny lady"" who sometimes ""looks like a primary schoolgirl and sometimes a +pensioner going shopping."" +298 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763901 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2505,C05763902,ARE YOU ON THIS CALL?,H,cheryl.mills,32,2009-07-25T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_030/DOC_0C05763902/C05763902.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05763902,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Yes,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763902 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +Yes +Original Message +From: Hrc New +To: Cheryl Mills +Sent: Jul 25, 2009 1:14 PM +Subject: Are you on this call? +cheryl.mills +Saturday, July 25, 2009 1:46 PM +H +Re: Are you on this call? +Sent via 13IackBerry by AT&T +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763902 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2506,C05763903,REMINDERS,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-07-25T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_030/DOC_0C05763903/C05763903.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Reminders,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Saturday, July 25, 2009 3:53 PM",F-2014-20439,C05763903,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"No word back from kristy but I told her 7am Karine and barbara will be there at 7:15. +Call reminders: holbrooke and moratinos. +79Q","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763903 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Saturday, July 25, 2009 3:53 PM +To: +Subject: Reminders +No word back from kristy but I told her 7am Karine and barbara will be there at 7:15. +Call reminders: holbrooke and moratinos. +79Q +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763903 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2507,C05763904,HONDURAS,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-07-25T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_030/DOC_0C05763904/C05763904.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Honduras,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Saturday, July 25, 2009 3:55 PM",F-2014-20439,C05763904,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Tom shannon passed on the below points: +The Honduran Armed Forces released a statement late last evening.

Although exact +numbers have not been confirmed, media is reporting that approximately 75 people were killed across Baghdad with +over 100 injuries. The most devastating attack appears to have been against the Iraqi MFA, where a VBIED was +exploded in front of the main gate. Zebari's Chief of Staff estimated that there were 35-40 fatalities and up to 40 +injuries resulting from this attack, with 70% of the building damaged. In April, you were the first senior U.S. official to +hold a meeting at the MFA.

Mack and Rep. Bilbray). Prior to their arrival +announcement on Friday, Mack staffers had already made a number of appointments on their own. However, the +Embassy provided full logistical support and security, and set up a number of other appointinents where it was +appropriate for Embassy officials to participate consistent with our non-contact policy. The CODEL arrived at mid-day +yesterday. I hosted a country team briefing over lunch at the Residence. They made clear that they were in strong +disagreement with many aspect of our (Administration) policy on Honduras, but they did hear us out on our perspective +on the situation since the coup. Following the country team briefing, the CODEL went to the Presidential Palace to meet +with de facto regime President Micheletti. No Embassy staff was present or involved in that meeting, although we +provided the CODEL with security and transportation. Following the 90-minute session with M, the CODEL returned to +the Residence and met with Supreme Court President Rivera and several of the court magistrates. The Rivera discussed +his views on the legal aspects of the coup. He made the case that the process involving the Attorney General and the +Supreme Court was legal, although he acknowledged that by extraditing President Zelaya the military had disregarded +Court instructions and its issuance of an arrest warrant. The Honduran court members found a very receptive CODEL to +their arguments. The CODEL then stayed at the Residence for a meeting with a group of legislators. We had five +members of the Honduran National Congress representing three political parties. Three of the members were +supportive of Micheletti and two were strongly opposed to the coup. In a very interesting debate, former Minister of +Defense Orellana (a Liberal Congressmen who resigned following the coup) won the debate making a very powerful +presentation arguing that the events of June 28 were unquestionably a coup. Orellana's arguments for very muck track +with ours, and I believe this meeting had an impact on both Rep. Mack and Rep. Bilbray views about the coup. I am +convinced they came out of this meeting much more aware of the serious legal flaws in the regime's case that the coup +was constitutional. +The CODEL returned to their hotel where they met with a group of U.S. and Honduran business leaders to discuss the +current situation. We were not asked to participate in this event. The CODEL returned this morning to the Residence +for a breakfast I hosted with six of the country's presidential candidates. This was a an interesting session and allowed +for a review of the political situation and a look at possible ways forward. In the meeting Bilbray laid out the CODEL's +perspectives and the message they planned to take back to the Hill and to the Administration. Both stated that they +supported the idea of a negotiated solution under the Arias mediation. However, they said they would advocate an +agreement that would call for Micheletti's resignation, but not the restitution of Z. The CODEL's proposal was for some +type of constitutional succession involving the President of the Supreme Court as Micheletti's successor. Following this +meeting, the CODEL met with Pastor Anderson, a U.S. religious and social worker here. He was accompanied by several +Honduran human rights workers who made a cogent case that the human rights situation in Honduras had deteriorated +significantly since the June 28 coup. +The CODEL left for the airport about an hour ago. This CODEL was friendly and professional, but they certainly were not +helpful to Administration policy goals in Honduras. The CODEL sent a strong message of support for the Micheletti +regime. The meeting of the CODEL with Micheletti received prominent press coverage by the establishment media, +which are mostly in the anti-Zelaya camp. +As usual, our staff did a splendid job handling all aspects of this short fused visit.

Children given or sold into this system are known as +restaveks, a Creole term based on the French ""restez avec"" (""stay with""). While some restaveks +are cared for by their host families and sent to school, most of these children are subjected to +years of hardship, abuse, and involuntary domestic servitude. At one time the practice may +have benefitted both child and the host family, but for most restaveks it is now a modern form +of slavery. +The roots of the restavek system reach back generations, and mirror involuntary child domestic +servitude patterns in West Africa. The practice is so entrenched in Haitian society that it is not +limited to the upper classes -- poor families routinely keep one or more restaveks who come +from even poorer families. +318 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763959 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763959 Date: 07/31/2015 +Estimates from NGOs and the Haitian government of the number of restaveks in the country +run from 90,000 to 300,000, the majority of whom are girls between the ages of six and +14. NGOs believe another 3,000 Haitian restaveks are in the Dominican Republic. Exploited +restaveks in either country typically work excessive hours on physically demanding tasks +without pay or adequate food, do not attend school, and are often physically and sexually +abused by their host family. +On average, parents offer their children to host families when they are as young as six. Girls +are primarily trafficked into private homes in the city, while boys more often end up exploited +for labor on farms. +Restaveks who do not run away or escape usually remain with the host family until they are 14- +years old; Haitian labor laws require employers to pay domestic workers over 15 years old, so +many host families force restaveks out of the household before that age. Abandoned and +runaway restaveks make up a significant proportion of the large population of children living on +the street, where most are forced into prostitution or street crime by violent criminal gangs. The +restavek system thus has a destabilizing effect far beyond the individuals involved. +Some restaveks do escape, and those who are picked up by the authorities are referred to the +social welfare organization IBESR (Institut pour le bien-etre social et la recherche), and then +temporarily cared for in dedicated shelters. Two centers in Port au Prince receive financial and +technical support from the International Organization for Migration (IOM) to provide shelter, +food, medical and psychosocial services for these children until their parents can be found and +conditions are in place for the children to return to their families. +The shelter's capacity is limited, however, and the rescued children cannot always return to +their families. Since 2005, IOM has only been able to assist about 300 children. +Action Needed: +The permanent demise of the restavek system cannot come about without overhauling both the +Haitian legal system -- which does not prohibit or punish this form of modern slavery -- and the +historical institutions and attitudes which support it. +Some of these changes are already in process, although without long-term international support +they are likely to prove fruitless. The UN, USAID, World Bank, IOM, US Institute of Peace, +and other reputable organizations currently conduct rule-of-law and legal reform assistance +programs that seek in part to revise Haiti's criminal laws, which have been in place relatively +untouched since 1826. +Most programs plan to develop a new legal structure that is easy for the general public to +understand, fosters trust in the government, and develop a culture of the rule of law.

National elections in 2006 elected a president and a Parliament that replaced an appointed +interim government, but the effectiveness of state institutions remained severely limited. Civil unrest in April +2008 left the country without a government for five months. The Government of Haiti's ability to provide basic +services and security for citizens, and to control rampant crime in the capital, Port-au-Prince, continues to be +compromised by limited resources, an untrained and poorly equipped police force, entrenched government +corruption, and perennially weak government institutions. +The UN Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH) continued to maintain more than 6,950 troops and 1,900 +police throughout the country to provide security. Haiti remains a Special Case for the fourth consecutive year +as the new government formed in September 2008 has not yet been able to address the significant challenges +facing the country, including human trafficking. The U.S. government, however, notes the progress of Haiti's +government, and urges the Government of Haiti to take immediate action to address its serious trafficking-in- +persons problems. The following background and recommendations are provided to guide government officials. +Scope and Magnitude: Haiti is a source, transit, and destination country for men, women, and children +trafficked for the purposes of forced labor and sexual exploitation. Haitian women, men, and children are +trafficked into the Dominican Republic, The Bahamas, the United States, Europe, Canada, and Jamaica for +exploitation in domestic service, agriculture, and construction. Trafficked Dominican women and girls are +forced into prostitution. Some may be patronized by UN peacekeepers in Haiti, although MINUSTAH is +implementing programs among its personnel to suppress this practice. Several NGOs noted a sharp increase in +the number of Haitian children trafficked for sex and labor to the Dominican Republic and The Bahamas during +2008. +The majority of trafficking cases are found among the estimated 90,000 to 300,000 restaveks in Haiti, and the +3,000 additional restaveks who are trafficked to the Dominican Republic. Poor, mostly rural families send their +children to cities to live with relatively wealthier ""host"" families, whom they expect to provide the children with +food, shelter, and an education in exchange for domestic work. While some restaveks are cared for and sent to +school, most of these children are subjected to involuntary domestic servitude. These restaveks, 65 percent of +whom are girls between the ages of six and 14, work excessive hours, receive no schooling or payment and are +often physically and sexually abused. Haitian labor laws require employers to pay domestic workers over the +age of 15, so many host families dismiss restaveks before they reach that age. Dismissed and runaway restaveks +make up a significant proportion of the large population of street children, who frequently are forced to work in +prostitution or street crime by violent criminal gangs. Women and girls from the Dominican Republic are +trafficked into Haiti for commercial sexual exploitation. Some of the Haitians who voluntarily migrate to the +Dominican Republic, The Bahamas, the United States, and other Caribbean nations, subsequently face +conditions of forced labor on sugar-cane plantations, and in agriculture and construction. +Government Efforts: Haitian officials recognize that human trafficking is a serious problem in the country, +including the exploitation of restavek children as domestic servants. As a policy matter, however, the national +police child protection unit, the Brigade for the Protection of Minors (BPM), does not pursue restavek +trafficking cases because there is no statutory penalty against the practice. Haitian law also does not specifically +321 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763961 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05763961 Date: 07/31/2015 +prohibit trafficking in persons, which limits its ability to punish traffickers and protect victims. It did shut down +a number of unregistered orphanages whose residents were believed to be vulnerable to trafficking. +The Ministry of Social Affairs and Labor (MAST) should make every effort to complete its revision of and +resubmit to Parliament its comprehensive anti-trafficking bill; Parliament should consider it, and then pass a law +prohibiting all forms of human trafficking. Until then, authorities could begin to enforce existing criminal +statutes penalizing slavery, kidnapping, forced prostitution and forced labor to prosecute trafficking offenses. +Judges, police, and prosecutors throughout the country need additional anti-trafficking training before they can +effectively prosecute and punish trafficking offenders. Lacking its own resources, the government cooperates +with numerous NGOs to assist victims and to train officials about trafficking issues. Haitian immigration +officers working with MINUSTAH proactively identified potential child trafficking victims at airports and the +border with the Dominican Republic. +The Office of National Identification, with technical assistance from the Organization of American States and +the Government of Canada, began to provide national identity cards to persons who reached the legal voting age +since the last election. It continued to provide birth certificates to citizens who had not previously been issued +official identity documents. The government does not follow systematic victim identification procedures, +though Haitian authorities work closely with NGOs to refer identified victims -- primarily children -- and +coordinate protective services as needed. Shelter services for adult trafficking victims do not exist, and the +government should make every effort to open or support facilities which could provide men and women with +appropriate assistance. +From: CdeBaca, Luis +Sent: Monday, July 27, 2009 2:50 PM +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Subject: Cheryl, here is a quick backgrounder on child slavery in Haiti +Hi Cheryl, +The Secretary asked me to send her, through you, an informal paper that she could share with President Clinton on the +restavek problem.

This +environment has resulted in chronic turnover by U.S./ex-pat guards. According to the State +Department, ""nearly 90% of the incumbent US/Expats left within the first six months of contract +performance.""7 According to POGO sources, the U.S./ex-pat guard turnover may be as high as +100 percent annually. This untenable turnover prevents the guard force from developing team +cohesion, and requires constant training for new replacement recruits. The guards have come to +POGO because they say they believe strongly in the mission, but are concerned that many good +guards are quitting out of frustration or being fired for refusing to participate in the misconduct, +and that those responsible for the misconduct are not being held accountable. +After extensive interviews with eyewitnesses, and examination of documents, +photographs, videos, and emails, POGO believes that the management of the contract to protect +the U.S. Embassy Kabul is grossly deficient, posing a significant threat to the security of the +Embassy and its personnel—and thereby to the diplomatic mission in Afghanistan. +Ineffectual Oversight by the Department of State +Failed management of security contractors by the Department of State is not new, and +since the 2007 Iraqi Mansour Square massacre involving five Blackwater personnel, the State +Department has promised repeatedly to strengthen its oversight.8 Yet, as in Iraq, the Department +of State has utterly failed to properly manage another contractor, this time at the U.S. Embassy +Kabul, Afghanistan. State has repeatedly warned AGNA about its performance on this security +contract, but its threats have been empty. As a result, violations of the contract continue. +In June 2009, an investigation by the Senate Subcommittee on Contracting Oversight +revealed a pattern of ineffectual Department of State oversight of the AGNA contract.9 The +Senate found, for instance, that in July 2007, State issued a ""cure notice,"" a formal advisory that +AGNA's deficiencies were endangering the performance of the contract. In the cure notice, State +identified 14 performance deficiencies, including the failure of AGNA to provide an adequate +number of guards, relief personnel, and armored vehicles. The contracting official stated ""I +consider the contract deficiencies addressed below to endanger performance of the contract to +such a degree that the security of the US Embassy in Kabul is in jeopardy.... +,I0 +6 Ex-pat is short for expatriot, a blanket designation native-English-speaking guards use to describe themselves.

State also cited AGNA for failing to correct many of the +deficiencies identified in the July 2007 cure notice, including those related to staffing and +training of the guard force. State further informed AGNA that, due to the contractor's continued +weaknesses and deficiencies, the Department was considering not extending the contract for +another year.11 +In July 2008, despite AGNA's continuing problems, State decided to extend the contract +for an additional year, noting that based on satisfactory meetings with the incoming Wackenhut +managers, it was ""reasonable"" to expect that all performance problems would be corrected by +October of that year.I2 Just a month later, however, the Department of State reiterated to AGNA +that it questioned the contractor's ability to provide security for the U.S. Embassy in the hostile +environment of Afghanistan. Citing ongoing staffing concerns, State concluded that ""AGNA +needs to come quickly to terms with contract requirements especially in light of the current +incidents occurring in and around Kabul and the corresponding threat environment they pose.""13 +By September 2008, AGNA's performance problems had grown so severe that +Department of State issued a ""Show Cause"" letterI4 and advised that it was considering +terminating the contract because the failure to provide an adequate number of guards ""has +negatively impacted the security posture of the Local Guard Program for the U.S. Mission to +Kabul....[T]he staffing situation has further deteriorated to a level that...gravely endangers +performance of guard services in a high-threat environment such as Afghanistan.""15 +In March 2009, the Department of State again informed AGNA that it had ""grave +concerns"" relating to AGNA's continuing failure to provide sufficient numbers of guards.

Around March, according to numerous participants, he was confronted by +some 50 guards at Camp Sullivan who complained to him directly about a severe, ongoing guard +shortage. Then, in an April 2009 memo to a State Department official, U.S. Embassy Kabul +guard force Commander Werner Ilic reported that guard shortages had caused chronic sleep +deprivation among his men. He described a situation in which guards habitually face 14-hour- +day work cycles extending for as many as eight weeks in a row, frequently alternating between +day and night shifts. He concluded that ""this ultimately diminishes the LGF's [Local Guard +Force's] ability to provide security."" (Attachment 1) The contract with the State Department +specifies that guards may not be on duty for longer than 12 consecutive hours.2° Interviewees and +documents reveal that short-staffing frequently results in the denial of contractually guaranteed +leave and vacation, and that those who do not comply are threatened with termination or actually +fired. +In further contradiction of Mr. Brinkley's assurances, the Knoxville News reported on +August 22 that Wackenhut has moved or is planning to deploy up to 18 guards from the nuclear +weapons facilities in Tennessee to cover guard shortages in Kabul, quoting a Wackenhut +spokesperson as confirming the use of the guards ""to deal with personnel shortages at the +embassy....""21 +12 Their statements are available at the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs website: +http://hsgac.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Hearings.Hearing&Hearing_ID=39448b8f-4f71-4ae3-b090- +3bac4e854f9a (Downloaded August 27, 2009) +18 Local Guard Services Kabul, Afghanistan, Contract No. S-AQMPD-07-00054, Section B.3 and B.4, pp. 5-19 and +USASpending.gov, ""Federal Contracts for Contract ID Number (PHD) : SAQMPDO7C0054, Federal Fiscal Year : +2009."" +http://www.usaspending.gov/fpds/fpds.php?agencyID=STATE%20Department%20of&modNumber=M019&transa +ctionNumber=0&IDVAgencyID=&IDVPILD=&PIID=SAQMPD07C0054&fiscal_year=2009&fromITSearch=true +(Downloaded August 27, 2009) +19 Testimony of Samuel Brinkley, Vice President, Homeland and International Security Services, Wackenhut +Services, Incorporated, June 10, 2009, p. 1. +20 Local Guard Services Kabul, Afghanistan, Contract No. S-AQMPD-07-00054, Section C, C.3.1.1 (Guard Duty, +Hour Limits), p. 35. +21 Frank Munger, ""OR guards agree to help in Afghanistan: New posts to alleviate shortages in personnel,"" +Knoxnews.com, August 22, 2009. http://www.knoxnews.com/news/2009/aug/22/or-guards-agree-to-help-in- +afghanistan/ (Downloaded August 20, 2009) +4 +1100 G Street, NW, Suite 900 .

According to a Pentagon counter-terrorism expert, tactical +communications are critical to success in either preventing a gunfight or the successful execution +of one should it occur, and are part of the fabric of a good military or security unit. If different +languages are used, the fog of battle is significantly increased, small tactical formations do not +adjust as required, and close tactical formations are likely to fail in their mission. Further, any +soldier or security officer who does not know of changes in mission orders as the fight continues +is more likely to respond incorrectly, unnecessarily placing them in harm's way and increasing +the chances of unit fratricide. Poor tactical communications make mission failure highly +probable. +This is a real risk at U.S. Embassy Kabul. The language barrier between the non-English- +speakers and English-speakers has forced both sides to use pantomime in order to convey orders +or instructions and interpreters to convey facilitate radio communications. One guard described +the situation as so dire that if he were to say to many of the Gurkhas, ""There is a terrorist +standing behind you,"" those Gurkhas would answer ""Thank you sir, and good morning."" Clearly +this is an unacceptable situation, especially given that security emergencies require immediate +response. +The State Department has acknowledged the issue as a problem, but has not fixed it. In +June 2009, State officials briefed the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs +Subcommittee on Contracting Oversight, admitting that ""inadequate English language +proficiency among the guard force"" remains a contract deficiency.23 +Supervisors Engaging in Deviant Hazing and Humiliation +Guards have come to POGO with allegations and photographic evidence that some +supervisors and guards are engaging in near-weekly deviant hazing and humiliation of +subordinates. Witnesses report that the highest levels of AGNA management in Kabul are aware +of and have personally observed—or even engaged in—these activities, but have done nothing to +stop them. Indeed, management has condoned this misconduct, declining to take disciplinary +action against those responsible and allowing two of the worst offending supervisors to resign +and allegedly move on to work on other U.S. contracts. The lewd and deviant behavior of +approximately 30 supervisors and guards has resulted in complete distrust of leadership and a +breakdown of the chain of command, compromising security. +22 Gurkhas are people from Nepal and Northern India who are best known for their history of bravery and strength in +the Indian Army's Gurkha regiments and the British Army's Brigade of Gurkhas. The term ""Gurkha"" may also be +used generically to describe guards from the region who are employed by private security contractors. There is a +high degree of variability in the skills and training. +23 New Information about the Guard Force Contract at the U.S. Embassy in Kabul, p. 3. +5 +1100 G Street, NW, Suite 900.

One +email from a current guard describes scenes in which guards and supervisors are ""peeing on +people, eating potato chips out of [buttock] cracks, vodka shots out of [buttock] cracks (there is +video of that one), broken doors after drnken [sic] brawls, threats and intimidation from those +leaders participating in this activity...."" (Attachment 2) Photograph after photograph shows +guards—including supervisors--at parties in various stages of nudity, sometimes fondling each +other. These parties take place just a few yards from the housing of other supervisors. +Multiple guards say this deviant hazing has created a climate of fear and coercion, with +those who declined to participate often ridiculed, humiliated, demoted, or even fired. The result +is an environment that is dangerous and volatile. Some guards have reported barricading +themselves in their rooms for fear that those carrying out the hazing will harm them physically. +Others have reported that AGNA management has begun to conduct a witch hunt to identify +employees who have provided information about this atmosphere to POGO. +Beyond basic decency standards, the situation at Camp Sullivan is clearly in violation of +AGNA's contract with the State Department, which specifies, ""Each contractor employee or +subcontractor employee is expected to adhere to standards of conduct that reflect credit on +themselves, their employer, and the United States Government.""24 More broadly, the behavior is +evidence of a complete breakdown of discipline and the chain of command among guards and +their leadership, itself a significant security issue. +In fact, an email from a current guard expressed concern about the impact of the +supervisors' behavior on the chain of command. ""I am convinced the greatest threat to the +security of the Embassy is the erosion of the guard forces trust in its leadership and ultimately +the [Department of State]. The failure of [the supervisors] to protect those they have been tasked +to lead is unacceptable, and if not held accountable will further compromise our mission. The +chain of command's failure to curtail [one supervisor's] deviant actions and to not hold him +accountable for countless infractions involving alcohol has made them ineffective. This has led +to threats and intimidation as the only means to accomplish the day to day operations here [at +Camp Sullivan] and at the Embassy. This is 'not' a onetime incident that went unnoticed by [his] +direct chain of command. These are events [that] took place over the past year and a half and +were ignored by the leadership at the cost of the well being of countless guard force members. If +these individuals are not held accountable for their actions it will only embolden those who +remain to make the same offenses against this guard force."" (Attachment 3) +Alleged Victimization of Afghan Nationals +An Afghan national employed as a food service worker at the guard corps' base at Camp +Sullivan submitted a signed statement dated August 16, 2009, attesting that a guard force +supervisor and four others entered a dining facility on August 1, 2009, wearing only short +underwear and brandishing bottles of alcohol. Upon leaving the facility, the guard force +supervisor allegedly grabbed the Afghan national by the face and began abusing him with foul +language, saying, ""You are very good for fXXXing."" The Afghan national reported that he ""was +too afraid of them I could not tell them any thing.""

Photographs posted +on the internet show Embassy guards hiding in abandoned buildings in Kabul, armed, dressed as +Afghans (despite contractual requirements that they be in uniform when on duty), engaged in a +mission for which they had never trained. AGNA guards train for their mission of static security +of the Embassy, not for reconnaissance exercises away from the Embassy. This incident created +the danger that guards could have been drawn into a military incident with or taken hostage by +Taliban or Afghan locals, and created a vulnerability at the Embassy by removing military +equipment, leaving the Embassy largely night-blind. AGNA management awarded a +commendation to 18 participants trumpeting their ""Intrepidity"" in a document improperly +bearing the seal of the Department of State. (Attachment 5) +According to many guards, another situation in which Embassy security may have been +compromised is when, on at least one occasion, supervisors brought prostitutes in to Camp +Sullivan. This is a breach of security and discipline made worse because the prostitutes were +escorted to the facility by some guard force supervisors themselves. Some interviewees recalled +that two AGNA guard force supervisors made no secret that, to celebrate a birthday, they +. brought prostitutes into Camp Sullivan, which maintains a sign-in log. Women believed to be +prostitutes were observed attending the birthday party. +Is Protecting a U.S. Embassy in a Combat Zone an Inherently Governmental Function? +Because the diplomatic mission in Afghanistan is so critical, and because that mission is +in a combat zone, the need for effective Embassy security is particularly acute. Just this year at +the U.S. Naval Academy 2009 McCain Conference, there was a seminar on ""Ethics and Military +Contractors: Examining the Public-Private Partnership"" which looked at the question of whether +security in a combat zone is an inherently governmental function. According to the Executive +Summary of the conference, ""contractors should not be deployed as security guards, sentries, or +even prison guards within combat areas. [Armed Private Security Contractors] should be +restricted to appropriate support functions and those geographic areas where the rule of law +prevails. In irregular warfare...environments, where civilian cooperation is crucial, this +25 Rhoda Margesson, ""Afghan Refugees: Current Status and Future Prospects,"" January 26, 2007, p. 7. +http://fpc.state.gov/documents/organization/80250.pdf (Downloaded August 27, 2009) and Islamic.World.Net, ""5 +Pillars of Islam."" http://www.islamic-world.net/children/muslimfacts/5pillars.htm (Downloaded September 1, +2009) +7 +1100 G Street, NW, Suite 900.

At the very least, this is a question that needs to be examined regarding +the protection of the U.S. Embassy Kabul and other embassies in combat zones. +The use of private contractors for security in a combat zone poses several dilemmas. One +is the inherent tension between the effective performance of a mission and the financial interests +of the contractor. Cutting costs is good for the bottom line, but can put security at risk. A legal +case against AGNA brought by two former U.S. Embassy Kabul guard force supervisors, James +Sauer and Peter Martino, illustrates this problem. According to the complaint, AGNA officials +""acknowledged that AGNA had underbid the contract in order to secure it,"" and told Sauer and +Martino ""to 'make do' and put a 'good face' on the situation to ensure that a profit would be +made on the contract and that shareholders would be satisfied....Defendants implemented plans +requiring more hours per individual and fewer shifts of staff in order to cut costs and maximize +Defendants' profit margin.""29 This is a clear example of the contractor endangering the U.S. +diplomatic mission in order to advance its bottom line. +Another dilemma is the threat of work-stoppages—which, according to witnesses, has +happened at least twice with the U.S. Embassy Kabul guard force. On two separate occasions, +the Gurkhas (who make up two-thirds of the guard force) threatened to walk off the job. In fact, +in one instance, buses had arrived in order to take the Gurkhas to the airport to return to Nepal. +According to POGO sources, the time it took to resolve just one of those incidents resulted in the +on-duty guard shift pulling an 18-hour day. +Yet another dilemma is that the laws in place do not adequately hold accountable +contractors who violate rules and endanger security in combat zones. Unlike the military, which +once had the responsibility of guarding embassies and which is bound by the Uniform Code of +Military Justice, private employers such as security firms cannot ensure a binding chain of +command that provides adequate discipline and professionalism in the guard force. +26 United States Naval Academy, Stockdale Center for Ethical Leadership, ""Symposiums & Seminars: McCain +Conference."" http://www.usna.edu/Ethics/Seminars/mccain.htm (Downloaded August 27, 2009) +27 Public Law 110-417, Sec. 832, ""Sense of Congress on Performance by Private Security Contractors of Certain +Functions in an Area of Combat Operations."" http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi- +bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=110 congpublic laws&docid=f:pub1417.110.pdf (Downloaded August 27, 2009) +28 110th Congress, Senate Bill S. 3001, ""National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2009."" +http://frwebgate.access.gpo.gov/cgi-bin/getdoc.cgi?dbname=110_cong_bills&docid=fs3001pcs.txt.pdf +(Downloaded August 31, 2009) +29 Sauer v.

For +example, to cut costs, AGNA ""downgrade[d] the quality of the vehicles to be purchased...."" 3° +AGNA sought to maximize its profit by sacrificing the quality of protective vehicles it bought to +secure the Embassy. In addition, as mentioned earlier, the State Department has repeatedly +chastised AGNA for the contractor's repeated failures to fulfill staffing, language, and other +contract provisions. AGNA has also failed to properly manage Camp Sullivan, as has been +detailed above. +The problems with AGNA's U.S. Embassy Kabul security contract do not appear to be +unique for this contractor. Recently, an ArmorGroup security guard in Baghdad's Green Zone +allegedly shot and killed two fellow guards and wounded at least one Iraqi. Extraordinarily, that +guard had a criminal record and was described by one security guard who worked with him as ""a +walking time-bomb,"" yet was hired by ArmorGroup anyway. I This particular incident raises +serious concerns about ArmorGroup's vetting process, and adds to the bigger picture of a +contractor in serious need of strict oversight. +Recommendations +1.After two years of failed attempts by the Department of State to upgrade the performance of +its private security contractors in both Afghanistan and Iraq, the Department should enter into an +arrangement with Defense Secretary Gates to provide immediate military supervision of the +private security force at the U.S. embassies in Kabul and Baghdad. +2. The State Department should promptly initiate a thorough and independent investigation of the +U.S. Embassy Kabul security contract in order to hold corporations as well as individuals +accountable for the above noted misconduct and contract violations. Simply removing a few +people from contract management at AGNA or Wackenhut, or creating a new corporate ethics +compliance officer, is not going to ensure serious accountability. Allowing those responsible to +quietly resign and seek work with other U.S. contractors, as guard force whistleblowers report is +happening now, will only perpetuate this problem. +3.State Department representatives either knew or should have known about this longstanding +and dangerous situation regarding U.S. Embassy Kabul security. The State Department's +repeated warnings to AGNA were of no consequence, and Department officials responsible for +oversight of this contract themselves should be held accountable. +3° Sauer v.

Those whistleblowers who have come forward to disclose the mismanagement of this State +Department contract should be protected from retaliation for doing so. +5. The State Department should consider whether the security of an embassy in a combat zone is +an inherently governmental function, and therefore not subject to contracting out. The language +in the 2009 National Defense Authorization Act could be strengthened to prohibit the reliance on +private security contractors for inherently governmental functions, and to include protection of +the diplomatic mission in a combat zone as being inherently governmental. If embassy security +in combat zones is determined not to be an inherently governmental function, the State +Department should consider requiring military supervision of its private security contractors +guarding U.S. embassies in combat zones. +6. The State Department should consider initiating suspension and debarment proceedings +against the companies ArmorGroup North America, Inc.

PJ +STATEMENT BY THE SPOKESMAN +Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, in remarks Wednesday before the United Nations Security Council on the adoption of a +resolution to combat sexual violence in armed conflict, stated that we have seen rape used as a tactic before in a +number of countries. In her statement, she specifically cited Sri Lanka, which prompted an official protest by the +Government of Sri Lanka and some news commentary around the world. +Regarding the Secretary's reference to Sri Lanka in her address, we want to be clear. Over the course of the difficult +conflict between the government of Sri Lanka and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), stretching well into this +decade, the State Department as well as credible human rights organizations substantiated numerous reports of rape +and sexual violence in Sri Lanka, particularly acts committed against women held in detention by the government. At the +same time, in the most recent phase of the conflict, from 2006 to 2009, though we remained deeply concerned about +reports of extrajudicial killings, disappearances and mistreatment of detainees, we have not received reports that rape +and sexual abuse were used as tools of war, as they clearly have in other conflict areas around the world. We hope that +this clarification puts the issue in its proper context. +This controversy should not detract from the specific actions that Sri Lanka needs to take now.

Its attached and pasted below for your review. +Thanks +Dan +A New Approach for Missile Defense +By Hillary Onion +Iran's development of short- and medium-range ballistic missiles poses a clear and growing threat to the security of our +European allies and our own forces stationed in the region. That is why President Obama announced yesterday that the +United States is ready to deploy missile defenses in Europe specifically geared toward stopping these missiles. This is a +threat we cannot ignore. +Previous missile defense efforts have focused on protecting against intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching +the Jnited States, but our intelligence now shows that the threat from these long-range weapons has not progressed as +quickly as had been feared. In contrast, evidence indicates that Iran is developing short- and medium- range missiles +that will eventually enable it to target most of Europe, the Caucuses and the Middle East, including U.S. and NATO +forces. +We deeply appreciate the willingness of the Czech and Polish Governments to host the original missile defense +architecture on their soil, and the decision to deploy other systems to better meet this growing threat came as a result +ofa long and careful review of our policies, capabilities, and requirements. This decision does not alter the unshakeable +commitment of the United States to the security of these vital NATO allies. Rather, it reflects our determination to +jointly meet the threats that endanger us all. +The old focus on long-range missile defense systems left significant gaps in our ability to defend against shorter-range +threats, exposing our allies and our forces stationed in Europe. Many experts have also expressed concerns about the +testing record and effectiveness of the long-range interceptors that were to be deployed in Poland. +Our ile\p:/ approacri is different in a number of ways. +First, we will use well-tested missile defense systems, such as the Standard Missile-3, against the current threats. And +unlike the old fixed, silo-based interceptors, they will be mobile and able to shift as threats evolve. +50 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764095 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764095 Date: 07/31/2015 +Second, while previous efforts sought to by-pass NATO in favor of bilateral agreements, the Obama Administration plans +to make coordination with NATO a central element of our approach. By working with our allies to build a workable and +cost-effective missile defense system in Europe, we can better contribute to the protection of our NATO allies and +increase regional stability. +For 60 years, the NATO alliance has been a force for peace, prosperity and security in Europe and around the world +because of its commitment to collective security: an attack on one ally is an attack on all. An attack on London or +Warsaw is an attack on New York or Washington. NATO demonstrated this commitment after the September 11 +terrorist attacks, when for the first time, the alliance invoked Article V and NATO sent assets to the United States to help +protect us from additional terrorist attacks. +UnfoJunately, the old long-range defense plan created the impression of ""two-tiers"" of security within the alliance by +focusing only on theoretical threats that could one day affect the mainland United States, while leaving our European +allies vulnerable to very real short- and medium-range missiles. +Our new plan corrects this imbalance. We will continue to monitor and counter longer-term threats, but we will work +with our allies to protect all NATO territory. We will focus on the most imminent threat, while also developing the +capacity to adjust quickly if the threat evolves. +Finally, we will engage with Russia as part of our new approach. Russia is also vulnerable to Iran's short- and medium- +range missiles and we will seek to cooperate to address this common threat. I am pleased that the Russians agreed at +the Moscow Summit to isi joint threat assessment of the ballistic missile challenges of the 21st century, including from +Iran. This is a positive first step and I look forward to future progress. +. In short, this hew missile defense plan is more realistic about the threats we face, more reliable in the tools we will use, +and more inclusive of the allies we are pledged to protect. +While we pii1SUE this new path, we will also redouble our diplomatic efforts to engage Iran and focus its leaders on a +clear choice: whether to join the international community as a responsible member or to continue down a path to +further isolation. +But the security of our allies and our forces cannot wait. That is why we are moving ahead with a new approach for +missile defense. +728 words +51 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764095 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2598,C05764096,OUT OF OFFICE AUTOREPLY: EGYPTIAN PROPOSAL,H,"Feltman, Jeffrey D",94,2009-10-03T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_041/DOC_0C05764096/C05764096.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,,"Feltman, Jeffrey D ",,"Saturday, October 3, 2009 1:29 PM",F-2014-20439,C05764096,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"I am in back-to-back meetings on Friday, October 2, and will have only limited access to e-mails.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764096 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Feltman, Jeffrey D +Sent: Saturday, October 3, 2009 1:29 PM +To: +Subject Out of Office AutoReply: Egyptian proposal +I am in back-to-back meetings on Friday, October 2, and will have only limited access to e-mails. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764096 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2599,C05764097,,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-08-21T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_032-033/DOC_0C05764097/C05764097.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Friday, August 21, 2009 7:29 AM",F-2014-20439,C05764097,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Holbrooke and eikenberry want to talk about elections.

Many experts have also expressed concerns about the +testing re-cc,rd and effectiveness of the long-range interceptors that were to be deployed in Poland. +Our view approach is different in a number of ways. +First, we ;gill use weil-tested missile defense systems, such as the Standard Missile-3, against the current threats. And +unlike the old fixed, silo-based interceptors, they will be mobile and able to shift as threats evolve. +Second, while previous efforts sought to by-pass NATO in favor of bilateral agreements, the Obama Administration plans +to make coordination with NATO a central element of our approach. By working with our allies to build a workable and +cost-effective missile defense system in Europe, we can better contribute to the protection of our NATO allies and +increase reEional stability. +For 61; years, the NATO alliance has been a force for peace, prosperity and security in Europe and around the world +because of its commitment to collective security: an attack on one ally is an attack on all. An attack on London or +Warsaw is an attack on New York or Washington. NATO demonstrated this commitment after the September 11 +terrorist attacks, mien for the first time, the alliance invoked Article V and NATO sent assets to the United States to help +protect us horn additional terrorist attacks. +Unfortunately, The old long-range defense plan created the impression of ""two-tiers"" of security within the alliance by +focusing only on theoretical threats that could one day affect the mainland United States, while leaving our European +allies vulnerable to very real short- and medium-range missiles. +Ow new plan corrects this imbalance. We will continue to monitor and counter longer-term threats, but we will work +with our allies to protect all NA70 territory. We will focus on the most imminent threat, while also developing the +capacity to adjust quickly If the threat evolves. +Finally, we will engage with Russia as part of our new approach. Russia is also vulnerable to Iran's short- and medium- +range missiles end we will seek to cooperate to address this common threat. I am pleased that the Russians agreed at +the Moscow to a joint threat assessment of the ballistic missile challenges of the 21st century, including from +Iran. This is a positive first step and I look forward to future progress. +In shor t.. this mkt,/ rnissile defense plan is more realistic about the threats we face, more reliable in the tools we will use, +and more irsiiuls i/E: tYj ti e?. allies we are pledged to protect. +While we piasue thls new path, we will also redouble our diplomatic efforts to engage Iran and focus its leaders on a +clee! criOiC.E.• Whe'her try „oil-, the international community as a responsible member or to continue down a path to +further isoraton. +But the security of our allies and our forces cannot wait.

Congressmen and columnists can say this, but +President Obama is correct not to do so, even though his critics want a tougher U.S. policy against the Venezuelan. +A testament to the success of diplomatic finesse is that Chavez and his pan-regional socialist dreams have been losing +ground in Latin America since the inauguration of Obama and his appointment of Hillary Clinton as secretary of state. +In the past week alone, two Chavez allies have broken ranks. Ecuador and Venezuela were teamed against neighboring +Colombia over a guerrilla war there. But Ecuadoran President Rafael Correa has just accepted an olive branch offered by +Colombian President Alvaro Uribe. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764107 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764107 Date: 07/31/2015 +Ecuador's vice president went so far as to add that his country would not let Chavez drag it into war with Colombia, and its +defense minister snubbed a renewed Venezuelan attempt to classify Colombia's FARC guerrillas as legitimate state +actors. The minister said that Ecuador had ""zero tolerance"" for the FARC. While Venezuela clearly harbors and funnels +arms to the FARC -- despite Chavez's patently false denials -- American and Colombian officials say that Ecuador has +been cracking down on the guerrillas along its border. A Colombian raid of a FARC camp inside Ecuador in 2008 led to a +rupture in relations between the two countries. +Meanwhile, the Paraguayan Congress forced leftist President Fernando Lugo to withdraw a bill that would have allowed +Venezuela to join the Mercosur trade pact that also includes Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. Brazil had rejected +Venezuelan membership last year. +In Honduras, the Chavez-led move to restore his friend Manuel Zelaya as president has been losing steam as much of the +""rest of the continent has come to grudgingly accept that Zelaya was at least partly to blame for forcing a constitutional +crisis. His ouster was hardly a standard coup. The military sent him out of the country after the Supreme Court ordered his +arrest for violating the constitution. Zelaya was attempting to follow Chavez's demagogic example of using plebiscites to +gut the country's dernocratic institutions. The de facto civilian government there continues to insist that it will allow +Zelaya's return only to stand trial. +Chavez's allies in Argentina, President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner and her husband, recently lost congressional +elections and are now minority lame ducks in that country. This reduces Chavez's greatest influence to two small +countries -- Bolivia and Nicaragua. Further limiting him is that Venezuelan economic ills and mismanaged oil reserves +have sharply curtailed his largess. He has provided only $6 billion in foreign assistance this year, compared with $79 +billion last year. +A crucial test of Chavez's influence will come when Unasur, a new Brazilian-led association of South American presidents, +meets next week in Buenos Aires. The emergency session was called to respond to the expanded use of Colombian +military bases by American forces that was agreed to in principle this week. +Chavez condemns the agreement as a threat to him and the region, citing past American interventions. The final details +are still being negotiated, but Obama, Clinton and Uribe insist that the 10-year agreement is merely an extension of the +existing training and intelligence-gathering to fight drugs and guerrillas under Plan Colombia. There will be no offensive +U.S. weapons such as F-16 fighter aircraft or combat units stationed in Colombia, and no change in the current force cap +there of 1,400 Americans, they say. By clumsily working in secrecy, however, the negotiators allowed leaks to frame the +project as an American plan, and not as the Colombian idea it largely was. +The administration has been winning over the Brazilians and other key players, though just how much remains to be seen. +Still, the declining influence of Chavez and possible regional acceptance of the Colombian agreement are due in large +part to the administration's adept ability to extend an open hand and attentive ear to all, even Chavez, and thus not play +into Latin fears of a Yanqui bully. It has won influence by going along with the rest of the hemisphere in condemning +Zelaya's ouster and in making overtures to Cuba, while staying true to American democratic values. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764107 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764107 Date: 07/31/2015 +Critics who demand bellicose policies that might lead to a break in relations with Venezuela should look at the failure of +such policies to sway events in Cuba, Iran, North Korea and prewar Iraq.

Shooting the clerk in the face in the midst of a robbery wasn't in fact his fault. He never said, ""I shot a +man."" It just happened. +I thought of that man while reading Max Blumenthal's terrific, but also, of course, appalling new book, +Republican Gomorrah. Apparently there isn't a single person in the present incarnation of the Republican party +who does anything. Things happen--God does it. Satan does it. No Republican is an agent of his or her own +success or failure, sin or redemption. It just happens. +The consequences of this lack of responsibility are there for all to see--screaming threats, guns at rallies, +unhinged behavior every time a Republican doesn't feel the way he or she wants to feel, absolute sense of +powerlessness leading directly to an absolute will to power. Because that was the thing that struck me about the +murderer in the 7-11--he had the power and in his own last moments, the clerk knew it. But the killer, no matter +how well armed, never felt it. +Republican Gomorrah is a frightening book because it is clear to all of us on the outside that the various +Republican operatives who surround James Dobson and his ilk have no consciences and will stop at nothing. +They invoke the name of God for purposes that shame God absolutely--hurting, destroying, maiming, and +damning others who either don't accept their beliefs or don't acknowledge their power and righteousness. Of +course that is frightening. +But Blumenthal's cast of characters, beginning with Dobson and his prodigal son, Ryan, and including John +Hagee, Sarah Palin, Ralph Reed, Charles Colson, Judith Reisman, Christina Regnery, Donald Wildmon, et al. +strike the reader as above all else very small--egocentric, narrow minded, uneducated, selfish, and resentful. +Each of these qualities is destructive in and of itself The combination is turning out to be coercive. Even those +of us who are immune to the emotions these people play upon are getting more and more nervous about the +power that they wish to exert. +Blumenthal does two things that no one else I have read manages to do--the first of these is that he organizes the +network. He shows how Ted Bundy is connected to James Dobson is connected to Gary Bauer is connected to +Erik Prince is connected to Ralph Reed is connected to Jack Abramoff is connected to Tom Delay is connected +to Tony Perkins is connected to David Duke is connected to Mel Gibson, and so forth, and in the course of +tracing these connections, he informs us, or reminds us, of the crimes and misdemeanors these people have +committed. +Two of my favorites are James Dobson's son Ryan's messy divorce (Dad seems to have paid the settlement--did +he not dare to discipline? Or did he discipline too much?) and David Vitter's habitual recourse to a brothel in +New Orleans where Republicans ""wanted to be spanked and tortured and wear stockings--Republicans have +impeccable taste in silk stockings"" (the madam is talking about men). Republican Gomorrah is full of crimes-- +both those we've already heard of, such as Abramoffs and Ted Haggard's, and those we haven't (there is good +evidence that Texas billionaire T. Cullen Davis, funder of the right wing Council For National Policy, ordered +hits on his estranged wife, and succeeded in murdering his step-daughter and the wife's boyfriend). +This aspect of the book reminds me of a Scottish novel called The Private Memoirs And Confessions Of A +Justified Sinner by James Hogg, in which, once a man believes he is among the saved, he can commit any sin he +wants to and be sure he will go to heaven. Once Davis was ""saved,"" for example, he said, ""My goal is to get to +heaven. I'll do anything it takes to get there, and I'm not going to let anything stand in my way."" He must have +thought getting to heaven was just another power play. +And power plays are the key to right wing psychology. Right wing psychology is the other thing that +Blumenthal has to offer. At the periphery of this world is your run-of-the-mill bully, a man like Jack Abramoff, +whose brutality is well remembered by his high school classmates, but who sang like a bird once he was caught. +At the center of is James Dobson, a much more destructive figure than Abramoff, who advocates, in the +strongest terms, child beating, and not only child-beating, but dog-beating. At one point he brags about going +after the family canine (who weighed twelve pounds) and engaging in ""the most vicious fight ever staged +between man and beast."" As for children, the goal is to keep beating the child until ""he wants(s) to crumple on +the breast of his parent."" In other words, Dobson is a proud sadist who thinks sadism is kind of funny, and who, +over the years, has successfully advocated sadism as the only workable form of child-rearing. +It order to understand the deeply disturbing effect Dobson and his theories have had on our culture, Blumenthal +cites Erich Fromm's Escape from Freedom, about the psychology of Nazism and authoritarianism, and Eric +Hoffer's The True Believer. Insofar as he finds the documentation, Blumenthal points out how many of these +powerful Evangelical Christians were beaten and abused as children (including Dobson). It's a high number. +The beatings, often arbitrary, cruel, and frequent, were then, in many cases, backed up with constant lessons +about God--that he is arbitrary, that he is cruel, that he demands obedience above all things, and that he +surpasseth understanding. The point of these exercises is to establish the powerlessness of the child, his shame +and guilt as a worthless sinner, and his absolute fear of thinking for himself He will then take his place in the +hierarchy and thereby reinforce the existence of the hierarchy. +Blumenthal goes pretty far with this psychology, but, in my view, not far enough. I'm sure he was reared by +liberal parents, who gave him a sense of responsibility, curiosity, and autonomy, and since he is only in his +thirties, I don't think that he really empathizes with the tortured and damaged souls that he has been +interviewing and watching for the last few years. I don't think he understands their fear--how deep it is, how +constant it is, and how arousing it is. I don't think, in fact, that Max Blumenthal looks within and sees evil. I +think he looks within, and says, ""I'm okay; you're okay."" That's the goal of liberal parenting, and as we can tell +by statistics he cites concerning unwed pregnancy, divorce, and occurrence of STDs, liberal parenting works-- +atheists and agnostics, for example, have a much lower rate of divorce than Evangelicals, and states that have +sex education in the schools, rather than abstinence-only education, have lower rates of teen pregnancy. +But a child who is beaten enough eventually comes to understand two things above all--that the world makes no +sense (and so why try to make sense of it?) and that the world is so dangerous that to be oneself, or even to try +to figure out what oneself might be, is a death-defying exercise. There is safety only in two things--conforming +to a group and, as a part of that group, dominating and even destroying other groups. The rules of the group can +be anything at all, as long as the members of the group abide by them. And other groups have to abide by them, +too, or the painful and arbitrary rules that group abides by are meaningless. The beaten child's sense of terror +can only be assuaged by evanescent feelings of power, because in relation to his parents and to God, he is +defined as powerless. When he ""crumples"" on the ""loving"" breast of his parent (and in my view a person who +administers a beating to a living being who is 1/16th his size doesn't know what love is) he accepts his +powerlessness and he also accepts that power is what defines this life. +That's where your freedom and mine come in. +Many of the Evangelicals Blumenthal discusses are Christian Dominionists--that is, they differ from the Taliban +only in their choice of doctrine. Their uses of that doctrine (to dehumanize women and other groups, to never +share power, to control every aspect of every life within their power, and to create society as a steeply +hierarchical structure with them at the top) are those of the Taliban. +It's an eye-opener to read about R.J. Rushdoony, son of Armenian immigrants who fled the Armenian genocide +of 1915. You would think that a man whose family escaped mass murder would go on to espouse peace, love, +and understanding, but Rushdoony went the other way, taking literally the 613 laws in the Book of Leviticus. In +his book, The Institutes of Biblical Law, he advocates capital punishment for ""disobedient children, unchaste +women, apostates, blasphemers, practitioners of witchcraft, adulterers,"" and homosexuals. Gary North, the +Presbyterian Christian Reconstructionist, is his son-in-law, and, while not backing down on the mass death +penalty, advocates stoning rather than burning at the stake, because stoning is cheaper (and of course that is a +factor, because there would be a lot of people to exterminate). As for who would be doing the killing (of you +and me, if they could catch us), well, Christians would, but not because they wanted to. Ever unable to accept +responsibility, they assign agency to God, who wants us killed, who will beat us until we ""crumple"" on his +""loving"" breast, a God who has given us all sorts of talents, skills, and interests, but is, like these Christian +Dominionists, interested only in power. I believe his motto is ""Adore me or I will hurt you."" +Can you believe in a God so small? When I was a parent of young children, I, too, got frustrated, and I, too, +thought a spanking might be a good thing. I soon realized that my motives for administering physical +punishment were highly suspect--more anger and frustration than care for the child or knowledge about +effective methods. I then saw a show about child-rearing, in which a woman who firmly believed in child- +between man and beast.""

I then saw a show about child-rearing, in which a woman who firmly believed in child- +beating aroused far more resistance in her beaten daughter, and had much more family disruption, than the +parents who ignored the tantrum and then used the technique of redirection to train their toddlers. Works with +horses, dogs, and other animals, too. It was then I decided that if I, in my human weakness, could put two and +two together concerning free will and proper behavior, surely God could, also. I didn't want to believe in a God +who was a smaller being than myself. And I don't. +The ray of hope in Blumenthal's book is that the right-wingers he talks about tend to be so psychologically +unstable that they don't have much staying power--think Ted Haggard. But they have numbers. The bad thing +about that is that they could take control. The defeat of Sarah Palin, Conrad Burns (R-MT), George Allen (R- +VA), Rick Santorum (R-PA), James Talent (R-MO), and Mike DeWine (R-OH) brought us ""back from the +brink"" according to the website Theocracy Watch. But only back from the brink. The good thing is that they +would not be able to maintain what we call a government for very long (see George W. Bush). The bad thing is +that they would destroy the country as we know it while they were trying. If I take the long view, well, I think, +Stalinism lasted about 25 years, Nazism 12. The Iranian Mullahs have been at it for 30 years. Russia and +Germany survived, Iran might, as well. But generations were lost in all these places. And Stalin and Hitler +didn't have nuclear weapons. +I think about the 22-year-old clerk in that convenience store, looking down the barrel of that pistol. He probably +had no idea that his killer had no sense of agency, hardly even knew what he was doing, was seeing his hand as +separate from himself. But I have to feel sorry for the killer, too, subject to feelings that he could not label that +were terrifying and overpowering. I bet he was beaten, shamed, and neglected as a child.

He must have +thought getting to heaven was just another power play. +And power plays are the key to right wing psychology. Right wing psychology is the other thing that +Blumenthal has to offer. At the periphery of this world is your run-of-the-mill bully, a man like Jack Abramoff, +whose brutality is well remembered by his high school classmates, but who sang like a bird once he was caught. +At the center of is James Dobson, a much more destructive figure than Abramoff, who advocates, in the +strongest terms, child beating, and not only child-beating, but dog-beating. At one point he brags about going +after the family canine (who weighed twelve pounds) and engaging in ""the most vicious fight ever staged +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764139 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764139 Date: 07/31/2015 +between man and beast."" As for children, the goal is to keep beating the child until ""he wants(s) to crumple on +the breast of his parent."" In other words, Dobson is a proud sadist who thinks sadism is kind of funny, and who, +over the years, has successfully advocated sadism as the only workable form of child-rearing. +It order to understand the deeply disturbing effect Dobson and his theories have had on our culture, Blumenthal +cites Erich Fromm's Escape from Freedom, about the psychology of Nazism and authoritarianism, and Eric +Hoffer's The True Believer. Insofar as he finds the documentation, Blumenthal points out how many of these +powerful Evangelical Christians were beaten and abused as children (including Dobson). It's a high number. +The beatings, often arbitrary, cruel, and frequent, were then, in many cases, backed up with constant lessons +about God--that he is arbitrary, that he is cruel, that he demands obedience above all things, and that he +surpasseth understanding. The point of these exercises is to establish the powerlessness of the child, his shame +and guilt as a worthless sinner, and his absolute fear of thinking for himself He will then take his place in the +hierarchy and thereby reinforce the existence of the hierarchy. +Blumenthal goes pretty far with this psychology, but, in my view, not far enough. I'm sure he was reared by +liberal parents, who gave him a sense of responsibility, curiosity, and autonomy, and since he is only in his +thirties, I don't think that he really empathizes with the tortured and damaged souls that he has been +interviewing and watching for the last few years. I don't think he understands their fear--how deep it is, how +constant it is, and how arousing it is. I don't think, in fact, that Max Blumenthal looks within and sees evil. I +think he looks within, and says, ""I'm okay; you're okay."" That's the goal of liberal parenting, and as we can tell +by statistics he cites concerning unwed pregnancy, divorce, and occurrence of STDs, liberal parenting works-- +atheists and agnostics, for example, have a much lower rate of divorce than Evangelicals, and states that have +sex education in the schools, rather than abstinence-only education, have lower rates of teen pregnancy. +But a child who is beaten enough eventually comes to understand two things above all--that the world makes no +sense (and so why try to make sense of it?) and that the world is so dangerous that to be oneself, or even to try +to figure out what oneself might be, is a death-defying exercise. There is safety only in two things--conforming +to a group and, as a part of that group, dominating and even destroying other groups. The rules of the group can +be anything at all, as long as the members of the group abide by them. And other groups have to abide by them, +too, or the painful and arbitrary rules that group abides by are meaningless. The beaten child's sense of terror +can only be assuaged by evanescent feelings of power, because in relation to his parents and to God, he is +defined as powerless. When he ""crumples"" on the ""loving"" breast of his parent (and in my view a person who +administers a beating to a living being who is 1/16th his size doesn't know what love is) he accepts his +powerlessness and he also accepts that power is what defines this life. +That's where your freedom and mine come in. +Many of the Evangelicals Blumenthal discusses are Christian Dominionists--that is, they differ from the Taliban +only in their choice of doctrine. Their uses of that doctrine (to dehumanize women and other groups, to never +share power, to control every aspect of every life within their power, and to create society as a steeply +hierarchical structure with them at the top) are those of the Taliban. +It's an eye-opener to read about R.J. Rushdoony, son of Armenian immigrants who fled the Armenian genocide +of 1915. You would think that a man whose family escaped mass murder would go on to espouse peace, love, +and understanding, but Rushdoony went the other way, taking literally the 613 laws in the Book of Leviticus. In +his book, The Institutes of Biblical Law, he advocates capital punishment for ""disobedient children, unchaste +women, apostates, blasphemers, practitioners of witchcraft, adulterers,"" and homosexuals. Gary North, the +Presbyterian Christian Reconstructionist, is his son-in-law, and, while not backing down on the mass death +penalty, advocates stoning rather than burning at the stake, because stoning is cheaper (and of course that is a +factor, because there would be a lot of people to exterminate). As for who would be doing the killing (of you +and me, if they could catch us), well, Christians would, but not because they wanted to. Ever unable to accept +responsibility, they assign agency to God, who wants us killed, who will beat us until we ""crumple"" on his +""loving"" breast, a God who has given us all sorts of talents, skills, and interests, but is, like these Christian +Dominionists, interested only in power. I believe his motto is ""Adore me or I will hurt you."" +Can you believe in a God so small? When I was a parent of young children, I, too, got frustrated, and I, too, +thought a spanking might be a good thing.

Works with +horses, dogs, and other animals, too. It was then I decided that if I, in my human weakness, could put two and +two together concerning free will and proper behavior, surely God could, also. I didn't want to believe in a God +who was a smaller being than myself. And I don't. +The ray of hope in Blumenthal's book is that the right-wingers he talks about tend to be so psychologically +unstable that they don't have much staying power--think Ted Haggard. But they have numbers. The bad thing +about that is that they could take control. The defeat of Sarah Palin, Conrad Burns (R-MT), George Allen (R- +VA), Rick Santorum (R-PA), James Talent (R-MO), and Mike DeWine (R-OH) brought us ""back from the +brink"" according to the website Theocracy Watch. But only back from the brink. The good thing is that they +would not be able to maintain what we call a government for very long (see George W. Bush). The bad thing is +that they would destroy the country as we know it while they were trying. If I take the long view, well, I think, +Stalinism lasted about 25 years, Nazism 12. The Iranian Mullahs have been at it for 30 years. Russia and +Germany survived, Iran might, as well. But generations were lost in all these places. And Stalin and Hitler +didn't have nuclear weapons. +I think about the 22-year-old clerk in that convenience store, looking down the barrel of that pistol. He probably +had no idea that his killer had no sense of agency, hardly even knew what he was doing, was seeing his hand as +separate from himself. But I have to feel sorry for the killer, too, subject to feelings that he could not label that +were terrifying and overpowering. I bet he was beaten, shamed, and neglected as a child.

Given +the level of distrust for us among the Pakistani people, they would see this as another sharp swing of +the U.S. pendulum which would harden their attitudes and make greater cooperation very difficult for +the Pakistani people to accept. +-- There may be greater leverage in giving the Pakistanis incentives to be more aggressive. Of +course, the military's calculation is most important. I'm not sure what is on their shopping list these +days but we would need to balance what would move the needle on AQ against undercutting our +effort to get them to shift their strategic focus away from India. . At the same time, we can be as +forward leaning as possible in support of their counterinsurgency capabilities (equipment, training, +whatever material, intelligence and other assistance we can give them if they move into Wazeristan -- +including relief for displaced persons). If they finally take that step, we can do all that is possible to +demonstrate that our arrows are aligned with theirs.. +-- On the civilian side, their desire for greater control over how Kerry-Lugar money can be used can +be played to our strategic advantage. If we give them a greater sense that they are directing the use +of these funds -- without greatly undercutting their effectiveness -- it strengthens our position to press +them on AQ. +-- Finally, there is the defining relationship with India.

This update outlines the outcomes of our trilateral and bilateral discussions, +and highlights of the some important issues that will influence our planning in the months ahead. In addition, +I'll pass on some impressions from my visit to the Kenana Sugar Factory that illustrates why I believe we need +smarter sanctions for Sudan. +SPLM and NCP Agreement +Yesterday I witnessed the initialing of a bilateral agreement between the SPLM and NCP, in which the parties +laid out points of agreement on ten of the twelve major outstanding issues in the Comprehensive Peace +Agreement (CPA). Culminating three months of negotiations, this agreement documents a shared vision for +implementing the Abyei arbitration decision, for moving forward on border demarcation, for completing legal +reforms, and for resolving other key issues. If the parties match their words with actions, it will bring them +closer to full CPA implementation and to peaceful coexistence. To ensure implementation, we have backed up +the agreement with timelines and a stoplight chart that we will use to hold both parties accountable to their +words. +With this agreement, we can now turn our full attention to resolving the electoral census and the referenda +for self-determination. We will resume our trilateral talks in Juba in early September. These two issues are +the most controversial and potentially destabilizing challenges facing Sudan. It appears likely that we will +ultimately have to raise these politically sensitive issues to the level of the Presidency (President Bashir, Vice +President Kiir, and Vice President Taha) to reach final agreement. I will keep you posted on my discussions +and the potential for meetings at the Presidency-level in Khartoum or Juba. +Looming NCP-SPLM Dilemma +1^1A +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764258 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764258 Date: 07/31/2015 +As the clock ticks down to the April 2010 national elections and the January 2011 referenda on self- +determination for Southern Sudan and Abyei, both parties have begun the process of negotiating and defining +the path forward to accomplish their highest priorities. The NCP's focus is on holding onto power and +controlling the levers of power in Khartoum. In this spirit, the NCP has reached out to the SPLM with an offer +of a strategic partnership that would bring the two parties together through the elections (in an electoral +alliance that guarantees the election of Bashir in Khartoum and Kiir in Juba). This alliance will also clear the +way to implement remaining CPA milestones and to resolve referenda issues. However, the NCP will not let +the South go quietly under any scenario. The price of a smooth path to the referenda will be an SPLM +commitment to unity, to include Southern Sudan's vocal support for a unified nation. +This puts the SPLM in an extremely difficult position. While the SPLM is united in the view that getting to the +referenda is their most important objective, asking them to take a position on unity versus separation +accentuates a divide that runs deep within the SPLM. For a small core of SPLM who are loyal to the original +""New Sudan"" vision of John Garang, unity has always been a more attractive option—but not without the +fundamental democratic transformation envisioned by the CPA. For an increasingly large portion of the SPLM, +separation has become a more attractive option despite the risks; this side of the party seeks to be in sync +with the vast majority of the Southern population who are expected to vote for independence. The path to +the referenda will be extremely difficult even under the best case scenario. I believe that separation of the +South will require very significant political, economic, and possible security investments by the United +States. Providing this assistance proactively will be a lot cheaper and easier than waiting until we must react. +The Future of Southern Sudan +No matter how this strategic dilemma is resolved and which path is taken to the referenda, all indicators +suggest that Southerners will vote for independence in January 2011, creating the first new nation in Africa in +more than two decades. Unlike other recent examples of independence, such as East Timor and Kosovo, +Southern Sudan will not have a long transition period after its vote for independence to prepare itself—indeed +it could have as little as six months from the referenda to the day independence is declared. During this +period, the government would have to undertake milestones such as establishing a central banking system, +issuing new national currency, and setting up commercial banking. The new government would also have to +determine the division of assets between North and South, and gain membership in the international financial +institutions (e.g., IMF and World Bank) to qualify for financial assistance and debt relief. This are just the +monetary policy issues! The South will be born facing serious internal and external security threats, weak +governance, and a grave financial situation—we must begin now to prepare both Southern Sudan and the +United States for this outcome. Our historic relationship with Southern Sudan gives us a special opportunity +to help guide the future of this fragile state, but also a unique responsibility to ensure its viability and its +success. +To meet these expectations, we have begun to develop a bilateral partnership framework with the SPLM to +outline what the United States expects from the Government of Southern Sudan (GoSS) and the SPLM and +what they expect of us. In these talks and in my meeting with President of Southern Sudan Salva Kiir, we +discussed how the United States could work with the GoSS to help strengthen its governing capacity, assist +with internal security and regional stability, and pursue economic development. As part of the bilateral +partnership, we expect the GoSS/SPLM to complete its responsibilities under the CPA, to pursue good +governance practices and fiscal transparency, and to support the United States and the international +community in promoting security and stability in Darfur and the rest of the country. To meet the South's +needs, I believe we need to focus on three areas: 1) transitioning from development assistance to large-scale +nation building, 2) instituting ""smart"" sanctions, and 3) strengthening security assistance to the South. While +US development and security assistance projects have increased capacity in Southern Sudan, these activities +171 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764258 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764258 Date: 07/31/2015 +have not transformed the South enough to ensure its success in the post-referenda period. We will reevaluate +the level of assistance that we provide to the South and will review ongoing projects to ensure we're doing +everything we can to prepare for the likely independence in 23 months. +The need for smarter sanctions was reinforced during my visit to the Kenana Sugar Company in Northern +Sudan, one of the largest integrated sugar companies in the world. I was impressed not only by the scale of +sugar production at Kenana, but also by its scope. Kenana engineers use byproducts of the sugar-refining +process to produce commercially viable commodities, ranging from animal feed to ethanol. We also visited a +school and a hospital catering to Kenana's permanent staff of over 4600. The staff and their families receive +free housing, electricity, clean water, medical care, and education. From my perspective, Kenana is a model +for securing foreign exchange and stimulating sustainable economic development. This plant provides long- +term employment opportunities that could be replicated throughout Sudan. While still maintaining pressure +on the Government of Sudan in Khartoum, I believe we could assist the people of Sudan by: +In addition to these fixes that apply between now and 2011, we must soon begin to undertake a +comprehensive review of our legal and policy guidelines regarding foreign assistance spending and economic +relationships to ensure that the South is born unencumbered from the restrictions we have placed on Sudan. +My trip will continue in Addis Ababa and Cairo to coordinate efforts to reunify Darfuri rebels and to promote +the Darfur peace process. When I return, I would welcome the opportunity to brief you further on these +issues prior to the upcoming Principals Committee meeting.

Many organizations and users on Youtube have picked up the video and reposted on their channels, for +examples it is has been picked up heavily in China from one user who generated 3K views on his own already +and I have been told that it has been posted on major Ethiopian blogs through their video channels as well. +3.

Through a video announcement she announces the opening of a global and engaging talk worldwide talk on +global hunger and invites people to submit questions on the topic. People can submit questions via video, text, +email, comment. +2. The community votes and comments on the best questions submitted by one another and votes on the best +ones. +3. After two weeks, Secretary Clinton answers then the top five questions in her own response video. *** We +could even bring person with best question to DC to be a citizen journalist for a day and ask the top questions in +person. +4.

I also appreciate your offer to meet with me the next time we +are both in Washington and would like to take you up on it. +I am now working with a serious American engineering and construction company, Symbion Power, that has +been hugely successful in Iraq and Afghanistan (on fixed cost contracts).

It made its name in Iraq constructing transmission towers and +pulling lines across al Anbar province at the height of the war there. Its business model is to partner with local +companies and to train local employees to do the construction, maintenance and repair, and to provide the +security. In Iraq and Afghanistan they established training centers and graduated over 3000 certified +linemen.

Your speech spoke to the entire +audience as I'm sure you felt from the response. I also appreciate your offer to meet with me the next time we +are both in Washington and would like to take you up on it. +I am now working with a serious American engineering and construction company, Symbion Power, that has +been hugely successful in Iraq and Afghanistan (on fixed cost contracts). It specializes in power plants, +substations and transmission towers and lines. It made its name in Iraq constructing transmission towers and +pulling lines across al Anbar province at the height of the war there. Its business model is to partner with local +companies and to train local employees to do the construction, maintenance and repair, and to provide the +security. In Iraq and Afghanistan they established training centers and graduated over 3000 certified +linemen.

I have heard comments from all over the +building and outside that this is a new level of creating content/video that is engaging, interesting, educating and that +can have long term value for State and partners to use. Bottom-line, we have done something new in raising +awareness/attention on a major foreign policy initiative through compelling, and viral video -- the Department of State +has raised the bar. +It is hard to read the traffic exactly to their sites and ours but here are some initial stats: +Top line: Using State.gov, America.gov, Facebook, Twitter, Youtube and more, we have use new media and connection +technology tools to reach over an estimated 100K audiences domestically and internationally through the video on Food +Security and ultimately have brought press and attention to a new focus. This video is engaging in that it raises +awareness and education on a critical foreign policy issue. +1. It is one of the top 20 videos viewed on our Youtube channel, with over 5K views and rising. Considering how +much video we generate through the daily press briefings and videos through S remarks daily, I think this carries +tremendous weight that in a short amount of time and little push to reach out to communities we have raised +the bar for engaging content through video. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764294 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764294 Date: 07/31/2015 +2.

Over 12,000 (estimated) have visited our main video page through State.gov where the video was featured. +4. Almost 9K people have visited the Global Food Security page through State.gov to get more information. +5. Through pushing out on social networking presences at State, we have reached over 65,000 people who +subscribe and follow the Department of State and we pushed this video and the broader FS page to those +communities through Facebook, Twitter, and more. +Next Steps: +1. We are making DVD's to give to posts +2. Working on distributing to bloggers for continued use +3. Will feature and push video to a larger audience when op-ed runs through a second push +4. Will work to feature prominently on World Food Day +5.

I discussed with Caitlin and wanted to see if you thought this was a good idea. +This proposal is to ask that Secretary Clinton begin an online conversation on Food Security where she can engage with +people at home and abroad. +1. Through a video announcement she announces the opening of a global and engaging talk worldwide talk on +global hunger and invites people to submit questions on the topic. People can submit questions via video, text, +email, comment. +2. The community votes and comments on the best questions submitted by one another and votes on the best +ones. +3. After two weeks, Secretary Clinton answers then the top five questions in her own response video. *** We +could even bring person with best question to DC to be a citizen journalist for a day and ask the top questions in +person. +4. We then use this video as a way to talk about the most frequently asked questions on global hunger, HRC's +responses to them and we have engaged a global community on the topic. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764294 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2705,C05764296,DRAFT EMAIL TO THE SECRETARY ON GUINEA,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-10-06T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_040_042_043/DOC_0C05764296/C05764296.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,FW: Draft email to the Secretary on Guinea,"Sullivan, Jacob J; Smith, Daniel B","Mills, Cheryl D ","Posner, Michael H; Mills, Cheryl D; Yamamoto, Donald Y; Bando, Jun; Leonard, Mary Beth; Fitzgerald, William E; Lew,","Tuesday, October 6, 2009 11:59 PM",F-2014-20439,C05764296,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,FYI,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764296 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Tuesday, October 6, 2009 11:59 PM +TO: +Subject: FW: Draft email to the Secretary on Guinea +FYI +From: Carson, Johnnie +Sent: Tuesday, October 06, 2009 11:44 AM +To: Sullivan, Jacob J; Smith, Daniel B +Cc: Posner, Michael H; Mills, Cheryl D; Yamamoto, Donald Y; Bando, Jun; Leonard, Mary Beth; Fitzgerald, William E; Lew, +Jacob J +Subject: FW: Draft email to the Secretary on Guinea +Jake or Dan: Could one of you pass the following note from me to the Secretary on the Guinea-Conakry situation.

Cunningham - 10/06/09 03:45 PM ET +You may never have heard of the Under Secretary of Commerce for International Trade, or the Under Secretary +of Treasury for International Affairs. You may have vaguely assumed there was a Deputy United States Trade +Representative, and an Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere Affairs, and an ambassador to +Brazil, but never thought much of them or what they do. +But ask American CEOs and business leaders who they turn to in Washington for help getting a fair shake in +foreign markets or untying global trade knots, and you will learn that these are the very officials they rely on. +Yet today, when every export dollar and trade-supported job is essential to America's economic recovery, these +key positions sit empty. And, surprisingly, these five seats are empty because of stalls and behind-the-scenes +maneuvers by Senate Republicans — usually key allies of U.S. business. +In each case, the names went up months ago. The nominees have strong credentials and many have +demonstrated strong bipartisan support. The reasons for the holds and delays vary. But even if the blocking +actions are unrelated, collectively they deny American businesses their most effective overseas advocates. +•Miriam Sapiro, who was unanimously approved by the Finance Committee in July to be Deputy United States +Trade Representative with responsibility for trade agreements and enforcement with Europe and the Americas +(including NAFTA), has a one-man hold by Sen. Jim Bunning (R-Ky.) over a Canadian tobacco bill. +•Arturo Valenzuela, nominee for Assistant Secretary of State for Western Hemisphere, was overwhelmingly +approved by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in July, but Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.) has a one-man hold +on Valenzuela as a protest against the administration's Honduras policy. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764301 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764301 Date: 07/31/2015 +•Thomas Shannon, nominee for ambassador. to Brazil, is also being blocked by Sen. DeMint over Honduras. +Shannon is hardly political, but is a career foreign service officer who was President Bush's top official for +Latin America at the NSC and then the State Department. +•Francisco Sanchez, nominated in April to be Under Secretary of Commerce for International Trade, +responsible for advancing U.S. export and trade opportunities around the world. Republican staff under Sen.. +Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) on the Finance Committee have repeatedly delayed a hearing. +•Lael Brainard, nominated in March to be Under Secretary of Treasury for International Affairs, is also being +held up by the Republican staff on the Finance Committee. With an empty chair in this powerful position — it +was previously held by future Treasury Secretaries Timothy Geithner and Lawrence Summers — our ability to +coordinate a response to the financial crisis is hampered at a time when we can't afford it. +Who is hurt by these holds and staff delays? Certainly the president, who is facing the worst economic crisis in +50 years, a stalled trade agenda, and economic and political turmoil in many parts of Latin America, including +the hot-button crisis in Honduras. +But U.S. businesses are also hurt. When American companies find themselves in commercial or trade disputes +abroad, or face unfair competition from foreign companies or discriminatory practices from regulators, they turn +directly to the roster above. With all these chairs empty, U.S. businesses with problems abroad find themselves +facing a classic Goldilocks problem — the Cabinet secretaries above are too big (and too busy); and the +officials below are too small to have an impact at the right levels. +Moreover, the international economic issues of greatest interest to U.S. businesses are precisely the ones that +are being hampered by these vacancies: balanced and coordinated growth out of the Great Recession, promotion +of job-generating U.S. exports, delayed trade agreements with Colombia and Panama, barriers into Brazil's +huge market, trade tensions with Canada (our largest trading partner) and security and border issues with +Mexico (our second-largest), among many others. +And while all U.S. business interests overseas are affected by these vacancies, it is our business and political +interests in the Americas that are being hit most directly, because of the responsibilities and expertise of the five +nominees: Predictably, this lamentable situation is renewing cries from our neighbors that even under a +promising new president, they continue to be neglected. And as importantly, our ability to help shape political +and economic events in our hemisphere to advance U.S. interests is suffering greatly. Who wins when we can't +act? Our foreign competitors; not just foreign companies, but Hugo Chavez and his anti-democratic allies. +All this is not to cast blame on the United States Senate, which has a constitutional duty to provide ""advice and +consent"" on presidential nominations (though it may cause one to question the tradition that permits a single +senator to put an indefinite hold on a nominee). Nor is it to cast blame solely on Republican members or staff. +Democratic senators and their staffs used these same parliamentary maneuvers under Republican presidents. +But it is to say that those who engage in those tactics now — at a time of global economic crisis and with +growing financial, trade and political frictions in our own hemisphere — should be reminded of the harm done +to important U.S. interests. In the days after 9/11, the Democratically-controlled Senate moved swiftly to +confirm the U.N. ambassador and other stalled security-related posts. Today's circumstances are not the same +by any means, but as we confront the worst economic crisis in over 50 years, these are surely no ordinary times. +The time has come for the Senate to carry out its constitutional duty and to end the delays on these five key +commerce and trade nominations.

Berman -- Honduras: Make it official -- it's a coup +latimes.com +Opinion +Honduras: Make it official -- it's a coup +A formal finding would trigger a suspension of U.S. aid. +By Howard L. Berman +September 3, 2009 +Official Washington is waiting for the State Department to determine if this summer's events in Honduras +constitute a coup. Actions may speak louder than words, but in this case, one word alone could affect the course +of democracy in the Western Hemisphere. +U.S. law requires that foreign assistance, with the exception of humanitarian and democracy-related aid, be +suspended for ""the government of any country whose duly elected head of government is deposed by military +coup or decree."" A formal determination by the State Department would trigger this suspension, whereas +previous uses of the word ""coup"" by U.S. authorities have not. The matter will be on many minds today as +Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton meets with ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya. +The Merriam-Webster dictionary defines a ""coup d'etat"" as ""a sudden decisive exercise of force in politics; +especially: the violent overthrow or alteration of an existing government by a small group."" +So far, the United States has taken a measured approach to this matter, allowing negotiations between Latin +American leaders and the de facto Honduran government to run their course. But our patience is not without +end, and President Obama, Secretary of State Clinton, the U.N. General Assembly and the Organization of +American States have already put the label to good use. +In late June, amid a constitutional impasse with his country's supreme court and military, Zelaya was taken from +his home by soldiers, bundled aboard a plane in his pajamas and flown out of the country. Since then, even in +the face of united hemispheric and world condemnation of the coup, a de facto government led by the former +head of the Honduran Congress, Roberto Micheletti, has dug in its heels. +40 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764360 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764360 Date: 07/31/2015 +This one looks, walks and quacks like a duck. It's time to stop hedging and call this bird what it is. And if, for +whatever reason, the State Department lawyers do not conclude that this was a coup, Congress should examine +other ways by which it can directly affect the flow of aid. +Cutting off assistance is a blunt instrument, one that should not be wielded lightly. It can affect livelihoods and +families and industries, in addition to targeting those at the top. But Honduras will hold presidential and +parliamentary elections Nov. 29, and every passing day gives Micheletti and his associates the chance to tighten +their illegitimate hold on the reins of power. +In negotiations, they have done little more than stall, hoping that the matter of the coup will become moot as +elections near. They refuse to participate in a regional agreement brokered under Costa Rican President Oscar +Arias and the OAS to restore Zelaya so that he can serve the remainder of his term, even with strict conditions +on his exercise of power under international monitoring. +All the while, conditions in Honduras are coming to resemble what we saw in this region in the 1970s, +especially for those who are known to have voted for Zelaya. In August, the Inter-American Commission on +Human Rights, an autonomous and respected regional human rights monitor, found in Honduras today ""the +existence of a pattern of disproportionate use of public force, arbitrary detentions and the control of information +aimed at limiting political participation by a sector of the citizenry [and] ... the use of repression against +demonstrations ... the arbitrary enforcement of curfews; the detentions of thousands of people; cruel, inhuman +and degrading treatment; and poor detention conditions."" +The de facto government claims that Zelaya was trying to subvert the Honduran Constitution and convert the +country into a satellite of Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez. That may be. But having soldiers take Zelaya +out of the country at gunpoint is an insult to decades of Latin America's hard-won, historic struggle with +democracy. +No matter what we think of Zelaya (and I don't think highly of him) and his actions to change the Honduran +Constitution, it is a fact that his mandate to govern was gained in a fully transparent election. +Democracy and the rule of law are not so fully established in this hemisphere that the coup can be treated in +isolation and as an exception that is allowed to stand. The longer it takes to right this wrong, the less legitimate +the November elections will be, and the climb out of this hole will be all the steeper for the entire region. +We should wield our influence by withdrawing all but the most necessary assistance, an action that would be in +keeping with those of 34 countries in the Western Hemisphere that want to see democracy restored to Honduras. +Howard L.

Will check on that in the AM. +Background +DOS competitively awarded Armor Group, North America, Inc. (AGNA) a contract to provide static protection +for Embassy Kabul in March 2007. An Office of Acquisition Management (AQM) Contracting Officer (CO) +and two DS Contracting Officer Representatives (CORs) assigned in Washington have overall contract +oversight responsibility and participate in weekly meetings between the DS program office and AGNA +management. Two Assistant Regional Security Officers are designated as the COR and Assistant COR. +Allegations of misconduct and inappropriate actions by AGNA first raised in June 2007, with multiple notices +of deficiency filed through September 2008. In May 2009, DOS determined that AGNA had adequately +addressed the deficiencies and was contract compliant. DOS exercised the next option year of AGNA's +contract on July 1, 2009. +In May 2009, the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Subcommittee on Contracting Oversight +(Senators McCaskill and Collins submitted requests for information on the allegations of misconduct in 2007 +and 2008. Hearings were held on June 10, 2009. +On September 1, 2009, photos were released of questionable activity at Camp Sullivan, the residence for +AGNA's guards in Kabul, and the Project on Government Oversight (POGO) sent a letter the Secretary +encouraging investigation into the allegations of misconduct in 2008 and 2009. +Current State +Status of investigations: +• As of September 3, the RSO investigative team in Kabul has conducted more than 30 interviews of +personnel who may have firsthand knowledge of the incident(s). Information obtained from the +interviews points to contractual deficiencies, with no indications of criminal activity, waste, fraud or +abuse. +• A team of investigators from the Office of Inspector General (OIG) arrived in Kabul on September 3 to +pursue their investigation into possible criminal violations. +• A senior DS team will arrive next week, including an additional OIG investigator. +Actions to date: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764408 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764408 Date: 07/31/2015 +• AGNA relieved from duty the personnel involved in the photographs. They will be terminated as soon +as RSO interviews are completed. +• The entire AGNA management team in Kabul will be removed from the contract as soon as +replacements are identified. The replacement of the management team will be phased so as to not +jeopardize the security of the embassy. In the interim, an A/RSO is assigned full-time to Camp Sullivan +to monitor all contractor activities. +Chronology of Events +May 2004 M The military ceased providing static protection for Embassy Kabul, creating a need for +contracted security services. DOS first contracted with PAE, Louis Berger, as an interim +measure ahead of full and open competition. +July 2005 M Contract awarded to MVM. MVM began the transition, but was unable to begin +contract performance and was terminated. The PAE Louise Berger contract remained in +place during this time. +April 2006 M DOS issued a new contract solicitation. +2007 +March 12 M DOS competitively awarded Armor Group, North America, Inc. (AGNA). An Office of +Acquisition Management (AQM) Contracting Officer (CO) and two DS Contracting +Officer Representatives (CORs) assigned in Washington have overall contract oversight +June M DOS received information that indicated misconduct and inappropriate actions by +AGNA to include failure to staff positions, provide uniforms, vehicles and other +contractor provided equipment. +June 26 M Meeting held with AGNA to convey the Department's concern and request that issued be +addressed immediately. Responses received from AGNA on June 27 and July 16. +July 19 M DOS CO issued a Cure Notice to address several contractor weaknesses and +deficiencies, including a failure to provide sufficient staffing and equipment. Over the +course of the contract, other deficiencies were identified and addressed with the +contractor, including failure to maintain a current ITAR license, failure to provide +sufficient language-qualified guards, and continued staffing and equipment shortages. +2008 +April 30 M DOS CO issued a final deficiency letter to AGNA, putting the contractor on notice for +recurring and new deficiencies identified by the COR. AGNA was informed that the +DOS was evaluating whether or not to exercise the option to extend the contract in 2009, +dependent upon the contractor's ability to fully demonstrate that it could permanently +resolve the deficiencies. The letter requested a final corrective action plan that entailed a +measurable, attainable milestone schedule to enable DOS to monitor progress weekly. +Sept 21 M DOS CO issued a Show Cause notice to AGNA, necessitated by repeated staffing +shortages. Show Cause notice was evaluated by DS, Legal and AQM, with final +determination that all pending deficiencies were correctable and progress was being made +by the contractor. Progress toward addressing the identified deficiencies was closely +monitored by the CO, DS and RSO-Kabul. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764408 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764408 Date: 07/31/2015 +2009 +May 19 H Request from Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, +Subcommittee on Contracting Oversight (HSGAC) (Chairman McCaskill and Acting +Ranking Member Collins) for documents and materials on AGNA's static security +services contract in Kabul. +May 20 M Confident that AGNA adequately addressed all of the deficiencies identified in the Show +Cause notice, DOS deemed AGNA contract compliant in these areas. +May 21/28 H Briefings for HSGAC staff +June 2 H Delivery of first tranche of response documents to HSGAC. +June 4 H Briefing for HSGAC staff +June 5 H Delivery of second tranche of response documents to HSGAC (note: third tranche of +documents remains an outstanding request, currently under review in the Department) +June 10 H DOS testimony (Will Moser) to HSGAC on AGNA's contract in Kabul. +July 1 M DOS exercised the next option year of AGNA's contract in Kabul. +Aug 17 S DOS COS notified by White House of alleged questionable activity by DOS contractors +in Afghanistan; sent to DS, L and M for action and response. +Aug 26 DS Information regarding misconduct by AGNA personnel in Kabul was brought to the +attention of the CO and DS by AGNA management during a regularly scheduled +meeting.

Sunday has been eventful. +- Fosnight was arrested about 40 minutes ago and is under house arrest. His U.S. passport has been seized. The +Consular Officer is aware and has passed to him (via the RSO, who's on the scene) the names of three local +lawyers. The RSO reported that Fosnight is also seeking to be in touch with a U.S. lawyer. The Consular +Officer will send a report of arrest cable tomorrow, and stands ready to meet with Fosnight. +- The GOL has formally asked UNMIL to assist in making sure that the house arrest is effective, in order to +ensure that Fosnight's rights are protected and to minimize flight risk. +- Getting to this point involved a harrowing six hours. This morning at approximately 11:00 am, the Liberia +National Police, accompanied by UN Police and our RSO, went to Fosnight's apartment to carry out the +arrest. Although Fosnight had been under LNP surveillance by five officers, he managed to leave the apartment +at around 10:00 in his UN-marked vehicle. (The Director of Police will be investigating how that +happened.) Airport, immigration, police, and UN authorities were alerted. +- At approximately 3:00 pm, we learned that Fosnight was still in Monrovia and was in phone contact with +UNMIL officials as well as LNP officers. Finally, he agreed to be met by the LNP at his apartment, where he +was arrested. He was read his rights, and read the charges, which include statutory rape and exploitation of +children, among other charges.

The housekeeper had +recently burned a large box of papers and other items outside behind the apartment. There was no computer in +the apartment, but there was a router, which was still plugged in. The five-year old has been put into protective +custody and the housekeeper is being questioned. +- Also in LNP custody for questioning are the Liberian ex-girlfriend and the Sierra Leonean ex-wife.

While the FY10 Bill had broad bipartisan support prior to markup, it now includes a +controversial Lautenberg amendment that would reverse the Mexico City policy statutorily. With +Lautenberg's amendment in the Bill, procedural hurdles are almost certain to lengthen and slow down floor +action. +It is possible that an agreement could be reached to bring up the Bill and structure votes so that the +Republicans could offer amendments including one to strike Lautenberg's language. +Should you agree to ask the Secretary to make such a call I would imagine she would want to get views from +Jack Lew, Pat Kennedy, Rich Greene, and Rich Verma, first. +Here are some points to consider for such a possible call: +• Timely enactment of the FY 10 State/Foreign Ops appropriation is critical to national security. +• Operating under a Continuing Resolution for any extended period of time will negatively impact +both State operations and foreign assistance programs. +• For example, the funds available to support State operations in Iraq are estimated to last only +through the first quarter of FY 2010. In addition our urgent hiring plans will be stifled, pay equity +authorities will lapse, and we will be without the necessary resources to implement our agenda on food +security, climate change, and global health. +• I urge you to take up the FY 10 State/Foreign Ops bill as early as possible in September. +Background +A +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. ' +F-201 4-20439 Doc No. C05764451 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764451 Date: 07/31/2015 +Mexico City Policy: The inclusion during markup of the Lautenberg amendment in the Senate bill codifies a +ban on future adoption of the Mexico City Policy.

He is opening himself to a devastating CX by +telling unexpected and unnecessary lies about his activities in Liberia and the region. I have been using my +access to senior Liberian, Sierra Leone, and UN officials to obtain new evidence with which to confront +him. This is well in hand and I dont see a problem in leaving even if Taylor is still on the stand on September +7. The major reason to stay as Prosecutor until that date (aside from the requirement of a 30-day notice to the +UNSG) is the oral argument on the appeal of our last case in Freetown (involving historic gender violence +convictions) on September 2, 3, and 4. +However, from my conversations with Clint, I am concerned that there are several issues that are coming to +head at this time, and know that I will have to hit the ground very fast on September 8. Because my schedule is +light in the coming week and because I have some leave days to use, I have therefore planned a quick trip to DC +to be there from Wednesday noon through Saturday noon, August 26-29. I wont yet move into the office, but +the staff will help me schedule some informal meetings on several issues. Additionally, this will give me a +chance to look for a place to live. +. I hope that we can talk when I am Washington this week. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764466 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764466 Date: 07/31/2015 +Best, Stephen +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No F-2014-20439Doc No. C05764466 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2782,C05764467,ONE MORE THING,H,sbwhoeop,194,2009-08-24T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_032-033/DOC_0C05764467/C05764467.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05764467,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"sbwhoeop +Monday, August 24, 2009 12:37 PM +H +one more thing +Forget to mention that Max's book, ""Republican Gomorrah,"" is coming out Sept 1.

I believe the settlement which is outlined below is a good +settlement which will meet the needs of a devolved Justice Department. +The key elements of the settlement are: +The Northern Ireland Executive will have access to the reserve to +meet any exceptional security pressures relating to policing and +justice. On the same basis, HM Treasury will be prepared to make +available up to an additional £37.4 million in 2010/11. +Capital budgets in the next CSR period will be sufficient to enable +the Executive to take forward routine, but necessary work, to +maintain the operational capacity of existing assets, to complete +the police training college and to come to its own view about the +relative priorities for new capital expenditure including Maoilligan +Prison and other projects in the period ahead. +The legal aid allocation is a £20 million a year addition to baseline +through to the end of 2012/13, after which efficiency savings will +be expected to take effect, allowing the baseline increase to be +reduced to £14 million a year.

If, in the event, +pressures turn out to be higher than this, HM Treasury will provide +further money from the reserve up to a maximum of £39 million. +Until the end of 2012/13 this access to the reserve will not be +recouped from future EYF. +HM Government will gift the four agreed former military bases to +the Northern Ireland Executive. It would be anticipated that a +portion of the land in Omagh will be used for an educational +campus but it would be expected that disposal proceeds from the +other sites would be used, on a basis agreed with HM Treasury, to +meet exceptional resource pressures (including potentially equal +pay claims). HM Treasury will work with the Northern Ireland +Executive to help ensure that any timing issues, related to delays +in securing these disposal proceeds as a consequence of market +conditions, can be addressed on an agreed basis. +On police pensions, previously identified pressures of £101 million +can be fully addressed through technical changes which will +include a public expenditure neutral DEL to AME reclassification. +There are potential pressures (the ""long list"") of around £15 million +in 2010/11 on resources relating to policing, prisons and probation. +This should fall to around £10 million a year in the next CSR +period. Baselines will need to be sufficient to meet these +pressures. in addition £30 million in unallocated EYF and +underspends generated in future years will be available to meet +pressures. +Prior to devolution the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland and +the head of the PSNI will agree on how front-line policing is +protected while ensuring the greatest efficiency. +Hearing Loss.

Bush administration is waging war against Obama in part through Sen. Jim DeMint of South +Carolina. +A freshman on the Foreign Relations Committee with no previously known expertise on Latin America, DeMint +is best known for boasting that health care would be the ""Waterloo"" that will ""break"" Obama. He recently +provoked a nasty spat within the committee by requesting funding to travel to Honduras to ""assess"" the crisis. +The Obama administration favors reinstalling the democratically elected president, Manuel Zelaya, a leftist who +was expelled by the military in June. Committee Chairman John Kerry criticized DeMint for his ""intransigence"" +in putting a hold on two Obama nominations for State Department jobs in Latin America, and initially denied +money for DeMint's trip. But Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell somehow found funding through the +Defense Department. +""DeMint has been using this issue cynically to hold hostage the entire U.S. policy on Latin America in order to +defend a coup,"" says Adam Isacson, a Latin American specialist at Washington's Center for International +Policy. +""Little Honduras has brought all of the ghosts of the Cold War out of the closet, and paralyzed policy by +provoking the [DeMint] holds,"" Julia Sweig, the director for Latin American Studies of the Council on Foreign +Relations, told me. Some Hill staffers are even blunter: ""These losers from the Bush administration who drove +Latin American policy off a frickin' cliff are trying to rescue their legacy,"" one aide told The Daily Beast. +A number of Democrats and foreign-policy experts contend the mounting right-wing attack on Latin American +policy has filled a void left by an Obama administration that was too slow to cut aid or take a firmer stance +against the president installed by the Honduran military, Roberto Micheletti. Driven partly by a desire to +appease opposition in Congress and distaste for left-wing populists the Obama administration ""slow-walked"" its +response to the coup this summer, Sweig says. +More recently, though, the administration has toughened its approach by cutting off some vital aid worth at least +$35 million and blocking Honduran officials' visas. The goal: to pressure the Micheletti regime to enter into +serious negotiations with the Organization of American States to restore the democratic government and Zelaya. +Informed observers say that indications of Micheletti's flexibility alarmed some right-wingers in Washington +and helped trigger DeMint's visit to buck up the regime's resistance. +An informal network of right-leaning American advocacy groups and ideologues was entangled in anti-Zelaya +legal and PR battles in Honduras before the coup. Among them: Otto Reich, a Cuban-American who headed the +State Department's now-defunct Office of Public Diplomacy during the Iran-Contra scandal, and was +subsequently investigated by a special joint congressional panel—and the U.S. Comptroller General, which +found he engaged in ""prohibited covert activities"" by using public funds to attack Reagan's critics. Reich, who +was later appointed by President George W. Bush to be assistant secretary for Western Hemisphere Affairs and +is now a private consultant, launched a media campaign against Zelaya before the coup alleging corruption. +""Your Loony Left sources say I was an architect of Iran-Contra like they say I'm an architect of the Zelaya +coup,"" he told me by phone from Panama. He disputes claims of illegal Iran-Contra activites as ""crap,"" +asserting they were only based on a fired House staffer's unpublished memo. But Greg Grandin, a Latin +American history professor at NYU, has a darker view of Reich's role: ""It's kind of the origins of Swift +Boating,"" he says. ""It's all related to what he's doing now."" +Conservative supporters of the current Honduran government argue on arcane legal grounds against the +worldwide condemnation of the coup. ""It's not the first time all, the countries in the world have been wrong,"" +Reich told me. He has criticized what he sees as erroneous reporting on Latin American controversies, taking +The New York Times to task for an article last Thursday that he says implied he was being paid to lobby on +behalf of the Micheletti regime. ""I guess my facts interfered with [the] story,"" he says. ""Can you believe some +of my sources say The New York Times is malicious and deserves the slow death it is experiencing?"" A +DeMint spokesman says the senator hasn't even met with Reich to talk about Honduras, although a Reich aide +says they've spoken to DeMint's staff. +Adding to the mystery of the coup, left-wingers in Latin America and the U.S. have floated what conservatives +say are unproven conspiracy theories that Reich somehow played a role in destabilizing Zelaya's regime. He +has firmly denied them to The Daily Beast: ""I cannot possibly answer all the Loony Left conspiracy charges +against me. But I will try: I had nothing to do with the removal of Zelaya."" But the rumors may add to his aura +of power as founder of Otto Reich Associates. He's drawn more attention to the new Honduras allegations by +penning a column for the Miami Herald boldly headlined, ""I Did Not Orchestrate Coup in Honduras."" +Perhaps the primary influence on DeMint's thinking has been the right-wing Honduran-American lawyer +Miguel Estrada, whose 2001 nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit was rejected by the +Senate. In addition to Reich, other former Bush administration officials who have played key roles in +influencing DeMint and in spreading arguments for the Honduran regime include Roger Noriega, a former aide +to the late Sen. Jesse Helms (the far-right chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee) who also served as an +assistant secretary for Western Hemisphere Affairs from 2003 to 2005. On July 2, Noriega appeared on The +NewsHour with Jim Lehrer to argue the legitimacy of the new Honduran regime. He was identified as a former +ambassador to the Organization of American States and a visiting fellow of the American Enterprise Institute— +not as a paid agent for pro-regime forces. +Noriega officially registered his firm, Visions America, as representing a Honduran business group only in mid- +July. Yet, the Times reported, he worked with the Association of Honduran Manufacturers to set up meetings +between supporters of the regime and eight U.S. senators—including DeMint—in early July. That visit to +Washington by Honduran business and political figures from July 2 to July 10, Foreign Policy reported, +occurred at the same time as a House committee hearing during which Reich—along with a former Honduran +supreme court justice and Lanny Davis, a former Clinton administration official and now a lobbyist—testified +in favor of the current regime. Noriega's office declined to return phone calls about his work. +The lobbyist-organized visit also coincided with Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearings on Obama's +picks for top Latin American posts: Thomas Shannon, current assistant secretary for Western Hemisphere +Affairs, has been nominated to be Ambasssador to Brazil; and Arturo Valenzuela, director of Georgetown +University's Center for Latin American Studies and senior director for Inter-American Affairs at the National +Security Council during President Clinton's second term, has been tapped to be assistant secretary for Western +Hemisphere Affairs. Both Valenzuela and Shannon were approved by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee +in late July. Julia Sweig of the Council on Foreign Relations observes, ""They're not polarizing figures."" +But for now they're hostages in DeMint's war. At the July 8 nomination hearings, Valenzuela angered DeMint +by defending the administration's decision to condemn the overthrow as a coup: ""In my studies of military +coups in Latin America, this was a classic military coup,"" Valenzuela said. DeMint's critics contend that he has +continually refused compromise offers from both State Department officials and fellow senators to lift his holds, +including the promise of an extensive floor debate on Honduras before a floor vote on the nominees. +DeMint's spokesperson, Wesley Denton, says he's acting in good faith out of genuine concern about an +important crisis. ""If these nominees are such a top priority for Democrats, then why hasn't Senator Reid brought +them to the floor?"" he asks. ""There is nothing Senator DeMint can do to stop a full debate and roll-call vote on +them."" Technically that's true, but it would be a rare violation of a Senate tradition to do so. DeMint has taken +up the issue of Honduras, Denton claims, because, ""the State Department's actions were directly relevant to two +nominees seeking the committee's approval."" +Yet before DeMint took up the crusade on Honduras—in what critics say is yet another vehicle to ""break"" +Obama—one congressional observer jokes, ""He couldn't find Honduras on a map."" +Art Levine, a contributing editor of The Washington Monthly, has written for Mother Jones, The American +Prospect, The New Republic, The Atlantic, Slate.com, Salon. corn, and numerous other publications. He also +blogs regularly on labor, health, and other reform issues for In These Times and Huffington Post. +For inquiries, please contact The Daily Beast at editorial@thedailybeast.com.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764511 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +sbwhoeop +Thursday, October 22, 2009 12:02 AM +H +fyi: Hague report and DeMint...

Bush administration is waging war against Obama in part through Sen. Jim DeMint of South +Carolina. +A freshman on the Foreign Relations Committee with no previously known expertise on Latin America, DeMint +is best known for boasting that health care would be the ""Waterloo"" that will ""break"" Obama. He recently +provoked a nasty spat within the committee by requesting funding to travel to Honduras to ""assess"" the crisis. +The Obama administration favors reinstalling the democratically elected president, Manuel Zelaya, a leftist who +was expelled by the military in June. Committee Chairman John Kerry criticized DeMint for his ""intransigence"" +in putting a hold on two Obama nominations for State Department jobs in Latin America, and initially denied +money for DeMint's trip. But Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell somehow found funding through the +Defense Department. +""DeMint has been using this issue cynically to hold hostage the entire U.S. policy on Latin America in order to +defend a coup,"" says Adam Isacson, a Latin American specialist at Washington's Center for International +Policy. +""Little Honduras has brought all of the ghosts of the Cold War out of the closet, and paralyzed policy by +provoking the [DeMint] holds,"" Julia Sweig, the director for Latin American Studies of the Council on Foreign +Relations, told me. Some Hill staffers are even blunter: ""These losers from the Bush administration who drove +Latin American policy off a frickin' cliff are trying to rescue their legacy,"" one aide told The Daily Beast. +A number of Democrats and foreign-policy experts contend the mounting right-wing attack on Latin American +policy has filled a void left by an Obama administration that was too slow to cut aid or take a firmer stance +against the president installed by the Honduran military, Roberto Micheletti. Driven partly by a desire to +appease opposition in Congress and distaste for left-wing populists the Obama administration ""slow-walked"" its +response to the coup this summer, Sweig says. +More recently, though, the administration has toughened its approach by cutting off some vital aid worth at least +$35 million and blocking Honduran officials' visas. The goal: to pressure the Micheletti regime to enter into +serious negotiations with the Organization of American States to restore the democratic government and Zelaya. +Informed observers say that indications of Micheletti's flexibility alarmed some right-wingers in Washington +and helped trigger DeMint's visit to buck up the regime's resistance. +An informal network of right-leaning American advocacy groups and ideologues was entangled in anti-Zelaya +legal and PR battles in Honduras before the coup. Among them: Otto Reich, a Cuban-American who headed the +State Department's now-defunct Office of Public Diplomacy during the Iran-Contra scandal, and was +subsequently investigated by a special joint congressional panel—and the U.S. Comptroller General, which +found he engaged in ""prohibited covert activities"" by using public funds to attack Reagan's critics. Reich, who +was later appointed by President George W. Bush to be assistant secretary for Western Hemisphere Affairs and +is now a private consultant, launched a media campaign against Zelaya before the coup alleging corruption. +""Your Loony Left sources say I was an architect of Iran-Contra like they say I'm an architect of the Zelaya +coup,"" he told me by phone from Panama. He disputes claims of illegal Iran-Contra activites as ""crap,"" +asserting they were only based on a fired House staffer's unpublished memo. But Greg Grandin, a Latin +American history professor at NYU, has a darker view of Reich's role: ""It's kind of the origins of Swift +Boating,"" he says. ""It's all related to what he's doing now."" +Conservative supporters of the current Honduran government argue on arcane legal grounds against the +worldwide condemnation of the coup. ""It's not the first time all, the countries in the world have been wrong,"" +Reich told me. He has criticized what he sees as erroneous reporting on Latin American controversies, taking +The New York Times to task for an article last Thursday that he says implied he was being paid to lobby on +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764511 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764511 Date: 07/31/2015 +behalf of the Micheletti regime. ""I guess my facts interfered with [the] story,"" he says. ""Can you believe some +of my sources say The New York Times is malicious and deserves the slow death it is experiencing?"" A +DeMint spokesman says the senator hasn't even met with Reich to talk about Honduras, although a Reich aide +says they've spoken to DeMint's staff. +Adding to the mystery of the coup, left-wingers in Latin America and the U.S. have floated what conservatives +say are unproven conspiracy theories that Reich somehow played a role in destabilizing Zelaya's regime. He +has firmly denied them to The Daily Beast: ""I cannot possibly answer all the Loony Left conspiracy charges +against me. But I will try: I had nothing to do with the removal of Zelaya."" But the rumors may add to his aura +of power as founder of Otto Reich Associates. He's drawn more attention to the new Honduras allegations by +penning a column for the Miami Herald boldly headlined, ""I Did Not Orchestrate Coup in Honduras."" +Perhaps the primary influence on DeMint's thinking has been the right-wing Honduran-American lawyer +Miguel Estrada, whose 2001 nomination to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit was rejected by the +Senate. In addition to Reich, other former Bush administration officials who have played key roles in +influencing DeMint and in spreading arguments for the Honduran regime include Roger Noriega, a former aide +to the late Sen. Jesse Helms (the far-right chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee) who also served as an +assistant secretary for Western Hemisphere Affairs from 2003 to 2005. On July 2, Noriega appeared on The +NewsHour with Jim Lehrer to argue the legitimacy of the new Honduran regime. He was identified as a former +ambassador to the Organization of American States and a visiting fellow of the American Enterprise Institute— +not as a paid agent for pro-regime forces. +Noriega officially registered his firm, Visions America, as representing a Honduran business group only in mid- +July. Yet, the Times reported, he worked with the Association of Honduran Manufacturers to set up meetings +between supporters of the regime and eight U.S. senators—including DeMint—in early July. That visit to +Washington by Honduran business and political figures from July 2 to July 10, Foreign Policy reported, +occurred at the same time as a House committee hearing during which Reich—along with a former Honduran +supreme court justice and Lanny Davis, a former Clinton administration official and now a lobbyist—testified +in favor of the current regime. Noriega's office declined to return phone calls about his work. +The lobbyist-organized visit also coincided with Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearings on Obama's +picks for top Latin American posts: Thomas Shannon, current assistant secretary for Western Hemisphere +Affairs, has been nominated to be Ambasssador to Brazil; and Arturo Valenzuela, director of Georgetown +University's Center for Latin American Studies and senior director for Inter-American Affairs at the National +Security Council during President Clinton's second term, has been tapped to be assistant secretary for Western +Hemisphere Affairs. Both Valenzuela and Shannon were approved by the Senate Foreign Relations Committee +in late July. Julia Sweig of the Council on Foreign Relations observes, ""They're not polarizing figures."" +But for now they're hostages in DeMint's war. At the July 8 nomination hearings, Valenzuela angered DeMint +by defending the administration's decision to condemn the overthrow as a coup: ""In my studies of military +coups in Latin America, this was a classic military coup,"" Valenzuela said. DeMint's critics contend that he has +continually refused compromise offers from both State Department officials and fellow senators to lift his holds, +including the promise of an extensive floor debate on Honduras before a floor vote on the nominees. +DeMint's spokesperson, Wesley Denton, says he's acting in good faith out of genuine concern about an +important crisis. ""If these nominees are such a top priority for Democrats, then why hasn't Senator Reid brought +them to the floor?"" he asks. ""There is nothing Senator DeMint can do to stop a full debate and roll-call vote on +them."" Technically that's true, but it would be a rare violation of a Senate tradition to do so. DeMint has taken +up the issue of Honduras, Denton claims, because, ""the State Department's actions were directly relevant to two +nominees seeking the committee's approval."" +Yet before DeMint took up the crusade on Honduras—in what critics say is yet another vehicle to ""break"" +Obama—one congressional observer jokes, ""He couldn't find Honduras on a map."" +Art Levine, a contributing editor of The Washington Monthly, has written for Mother Jones, The American +Prospect, The New Republic, The Atlantic, Slate.com, Salon. corn, and numerous other publications.

We expect the +final agreement may be signed in Bogota in about a month, +following a final review by both sides. As noted in reftels, +the DCA would permit the United States access to several +Colombian military bases and facilitate effective bilateral +cooperation on security matters in Colombia. It would not/not +authorize establishment of any U.S. bases or ports, nor would it +result in an overall increase in the number of U.S. military +personnel or U.S.-citizen civilian contractors in Colombia. +3. (SBU) On August 18, the Secretary and Colombian FM Jaime +Bermudez met in Washington to discuss the DCA, including the +importance of coordinating our public affairs and diplomatic +strategies (septel to follow). There is some concern that the +upcoming Union of South American Nations (UNASUR) summit would +become a regional referendum on the DCA. Colombian President +Alvaro Uribe will attend the summit provided that a full range +of regional security matters can be discussed, not just the DCA. +In this context, we are reaching out to selected +UNASUR members to ask that they raise +other regional security issues beyond the DCA. +4.

Eve had already told me from you that there is more interpretation +than fact in the new hospital story, and I really apologise for the embarrassment that our reaction and +the echoes from our friends will have caused you and Secretary Mrs Clinton. The fact that you came, +and gave priority to the catastrophic epidemic of rape in our country gives a clear and loud signal that +the most powerful nation in the world has put Congo's women at the top of their agenda. +Thank you for your questions about the best way forward for training in dealing with fistula. Our +approach is in some ways different from Panzi, because we are so limited by our facilities: we have to +do our surgical work by 'campaigns' — this month, a vvf campaign; next month, a cleft lip and palate +campaign; then a club foot and post polio campaign. This lack of space, with our commitment to +training 12 Congolese doctors in six specialist areas of medicine, limits us considerably, and makes our +medical teams compete with each other for OR time and beds. +To deal with the cases waiting in rural areas, we regularly send our surgical specialists on outreach: in +July, they operated in Kasongo (South Maniema), in August at home in Goma, in September in Adi, in +October in South Maniema and November back in Adi, December, here in Goma. Outreach is very +unsatisfactory to surgeons: they like to be able to follow through to complete recovery, and we like to +accompany women with training and literacy and psychosocial support. Although this provides +teaching time to local doctors, there must be a better way to provide continuing medical education to +the rural medical staff of Congo. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764562 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764562 Date: 07/31/2015 +If we could receive women here in Goma and organise a dedicated service, they would be treated more +competently and effectively, and we would be a much better training centre for young doctors eager to +learn. The special thing about learning at HEAL Africa is that young doctors can go out with our Safe +Motherhood teams, learning how to prevent fistula from ever happening to women; they learn how +medical and psychosocial services can be delivered to survivors of rape out in the most remote and +dangerous parts of the province. Because of this program of education, more than 50% of women +attacked are getting PEP in their nearest health centres. And these young doctors get the message that +our programs converge towards empowerment of women. For me, that means, reviving the soul of +Congo. +USAID Kinshasa is sending two people here at the end of the week, to talk more to us about how we +want to develop our services. I want to show them these needs: +An adequate teaching facility in Goma; with regular visits from overseas experts, especially urologists; +Reinforcing the GBV program — all the components of response, plus teaching the Gender and Justice module +over the LONG TERM, to bring communities in line with the new laws; +Extending and reinforcing the community based Safe Motherhood program (a combination of women's +empowerment with traditional reinforcement of maternity services). +Dear Melanne, I know that this visit from USAID is happening because you came to visit us +first.

The +United States supports the formation and effective +functioning of regional groups such as UNASUR.

These terrorists have threatened +the security of average Colombians and sought to overthrow +by violence and corruption successive, +democratically-elected Colombian governments. The actions +of these groups also threaten the security of other +countries in the hemisphere, sometimes directly, in many +ways indirectly. Over the last decade, Colombians have +beat back this threat, to the benefit of us all. My +country is proud of the role we have been able to play in +this effort. +This battle is far from won. Our governments and people +are collectively forced to find ways to protect ourselves +and our institutions from such threats. I am certain +these very issues will be addressed at the upcoming +summit, including the recently concluded Defense +Cooperation Agreement (DCA). We understand the +sensitivities associated with U.S. military activities in +the hemisphere and the questions your government may have +regarding the scope and extent of this agreement. I hope +the efforts made in the last few weeks by both my +government and the Colombian government have helped +address those questions. +I would like to take this opportunity to make several key +points about the DCA. First, this agreement is a +bilateral agreement with Colombia to deepen our +cooperation on security challenges within Colombia, +permitting U.S. access to specified agreed Colombian +26fi +facilities to undertake mutually agreed activities on +Colombian territory. It is a bilateral agreement that +does not pose any threat or risk for the citizens of other +nations. On the contrary, our mutual efforts to combat +drug trafficking benefit the security of the region as a +whole. The agreement does not permit the establishment of +U.S. bases in Colombia. It will not result in an increase +in the U.S. military presence in Colombia, and we do not +seek any such increase. Activities undertaken at or from +Colombian bases by U.S. persons will be coordinated in +advance by Colombian authorities. All activities will be +based on full respect for the principles of sovereignty, +territorial integrity of states, and +non-interventionism. +We are committed to being as forthcoming as possible in +addressing concerns about this bilateral agreement with +nations in the region, and we have endeavored to do so in +recent weeks through a variety of mechanisms. As concerns +or questions arise, I hope that you will feel free to +reach out to us to seek clarification. +The UNASUR summit provides a unique opportunity for the +organization to address a range of security issues that +affect the hemisphere, and I salute your leadership for +deciding to discuss these matters. The security +challenges affecting our hemisphere, and your nations in +particular, are pressing and grave. Our firm belief is +that a collective and collaborative approach to these +matters is essential.

(SBU) On August 14, the USG and Colombian government +provisionally agreed ad referendum to the text of a +bilateral Defense Cooperation Agreement (DCA) (septel). +We expect the final agreement may be signed in Bogota in +about a month, following a final review by both sides. As +noted in reftels, the DCA would permit the United States +access to several Colombian military bases and facilitate +effective bilateral cooperation on security matters in +Colombia.

(SBU) On August 18, the Secretary and Colombian FM +Jaime Bermudez met in Washington to discuss the DCA, +including the importance of coordinating our public +affairs and diplomatic strategies (septel to follow). +There is some concern that the upcoming Union of South +American Nations (UNASUR) summit would become a regional +referendum on the DCA.

While the FY10 Bill had broad bipartisan support prior to markup, it now includes a controversial Lautenberg +amendment that would reverse the Mexico City policy statutorily. With Lautenberg's amendment in the Bill, procedural +hurdles are almost certain to lengthen and slow down floor action. +It is possible that an agreement could be reached to bring up the Bill and structure votes so that the Republicans could +offer amendments including one to strike Lautenberg's language. +Should you agree to ask the Secretary to make such a call I would imagine she would want to get views from Jack Lew, +Pat Kennedy, Rich Greene, and Rich Verma, first. +103 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764598 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764598 Date: 07/31/2015 +Here are some points to consider for such a possible call: +Timely enactment of the FY 10 State/Foreign Ops appropriation is critical to national security. +Operating under a Continuing Resolution for any extended period of time will negatively impact both State +operations and foreign assistance programs. +• For example, the funds available to support State operations in Iraq are estimated to last only through the first +quarter of FY 2010. In addition our urgent hiring plans will be stifled, pay equity authorities will lapse, and we will be +without the necessary resources to implement our agenda on food security, climate change, and global health. +I urge you to take up the FY 10 State/Foreign Ops bill as early as possible in September. +Background +Mexico City Policy: The inclusion during markup of the Lautenberg amendment in the Senate bill codifies a ban on future +adoption of the Mexico City Policy.

If +the Turkish leadership has problems with the signing of these documents, they should not try to solve them by +distorting the spirit, essence, and goals of the initialed documents. The signing and implementation of the +agreed documents is a process that is full of difficulties. Nevertheless, Armenia is ready to respect the +agreements and move forward If the current authorities in Turkey are not ready to accept the fact of the +genocide perpetrated in the Ottoman Empire, then they are at least obliged to show respect toward the +survivors of the Armenian genocide and their descendants."" +Huma can you make sure S sees this before calls. +Erdogan quote: ""Until the Karabakh issue is solved we cannot open the border.

This decision came after a lengthy +and in-depth review of our assessment of the threat posed by Iran's +ballistic missile program, and the technology that we have to confront it. +And it is a decision that will leave America stronger, and more capable +of defending our troops, our interests, and our Allies. +1 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +Let's be clear about what this new system will do relative to the previous +program — which was many years from being deployed. With the +President's decision, we will deploy missile defense sooner than the +previous program, so that we will be able to swiftly counter the threat +posed by Iran's short and medium-range ballistic missiles. +We will deploy missile defense that is more comprehensive than the +previous program, with more interceptors in more places, and a better +capacity to protect all of our friends and allies in the region. We will +deploy technology that is actually proven so that we do not waste time or +taxpayer money, and we will preserve the flexibility to adjust our +approach to the threat as it evolves. +So make no mistake: if you support missile defense, then this is a +stronger and smarter approach than the previous program. It does what +missile defense is actually supposed to do — it defends America and our +Allies. +2 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +Now I know we have heard criticism of this plan from some quarters. +But much of it is not connected to facts. We are not ""shelving"" missile +defense, we are deploying missile defense sooner than the Bush +Administration planned to, and we are deploying a more comprehensive +system. We are not reducing our capacity to protect our interests and our +Allies from Iran, we are increasing that capacity and focusing it on our +understanding of Iran's capabilities. And most of all, we would never +walk away from our Allies — instead, we are deploying a system that +enhances their security, that advances our cooperation with NATO, and +that actually places more resources in more countries. +Two of those Allies are Poland and the Czech Republic, and we deeply +appreciate their willingness to host parts of the previously planned +system. We will continue to cooperate closely with both nations — for +instance, through rotation of a Patriot battery in Poland, and close +missile defense research and development work with Czech companies. +As we explore land based interceptors going forward, we have made it +clear that those two,countries will be at the top of the list. And let me +underscore that we are bound together by our common commitment as +NATO Allies, and also by deep historical, economic, and cultural ties +that will never be broken. +3 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +Finally, let me reiterate what the President said yesterday: this decision +was not about Russia; it was about Iran and the threat that its ballistic +missile programs continue to pose. And because of this decision, we will +be in a far stronger position to deal with that threat, and to do so with +technology that works. +My main reason for being here today is to give you a review of our +agenda next week in New York. Before I get to specifics, though, I want +to share a quick story. A few days ago, a friend, knowing I was heading +to the UN General Assembly, gave me a cartoon from The New Yorker. +It showed a delegate in his seat at the United Nations passing a note to +the delegate next to him. And the caption read: ""Shhh. It's a birthday +card for Lichtenstein. Sign it and pass it on."" +4 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +Well, comic relief is essential in our line of work. But as with most +humor, this cartoon is also commentary. And it represents one view of +the United Nations — a caricature of what multilateral organizations +spend their time doing. +As President Obama leads our US delegation at this year's General +Assembly, I hope we can demonstrate that the United Nations does not +have to be just a diplomatic talk shop on Pt Avenue. +At its best, it can be an institution that brings the world's nations +together to solve global problems through adherence to rules and +principles set forth in the UN Charter. And it is the responsibility of the +192 member nations — during the General Assembly and beyond -- to +capitalize on the opportunity for global cooperation and progress that the +UN affords. +5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +I outlined earlier this summer at the Council on Foreign Relations the +Obama Administration's efforts to advance our interests and solve +today's problems through a global architecture of cooperation. +We must begin by taking responsibility ourselves — something that under +President Obama we have already begun to do on issues from climate +change to non-proliferation. And we have called on others to do the +same. +By building and strengthening partnerships, institutions, and +international regimes, we can forge a global consensus and use that +leverage to offer clear incentives to all nations to cooperate and live up +to their responsibilities, and strong disincentives to act in isolation or +provoke conflict. The United Nations and this month's General +Assembly offer a venue and a forum for nations to work together to live +up to the founding charter and abide by and enforce international rules in +service of global peace and security. +6 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +This is not only critical to the effectiveness of global institutions; it is +essential to meeting the global challenges of the 21' century. This is +what Strobe describes as ""The Great Experiment"" — and I believe it is +the heart of America's mission in the world today. +Few issues reflect the need for a global architecture of cooperation more +than nuclear non-proliferation. No issue poses a more serious threat to +our security or the world's, and it will be a main topic of discussion next +week and beyond. +The President outlined a robust and ambitious arms control and +nonproliferation agenda in Prague earlier this year that can move us +toward a world without nuclear weapons. +As the President said, this won't be easy. It might not even happen in +our lifetimes. And, as long as nuclear weapons exist in the world, the +United States will maintain a safe, secure and effective deterrent +capability. +7 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +Next week, the President will chair a meeting of the U.N.

It will give me the +opportunity to underscore the importance of the CTBT to the global +nonproliferation effort and to broader U.S. security interests. +Strengthening the non-proliferation regime means working to bring +other nations into compliance. This includes North Korea and Iran. Let +me take a moment to speak about Iran, another key topic on my agenda +next week. +8 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +To begin, it is important to recall what's really at issue, and what's really +at stake. +Iran has refused for years to address the international community's deep +concerns about its nuclear program, underscored repeatedly by the +International Atomic Energy Agency and the UN Security Council. +Iran's continued failure to live up to its obligations carries profound +consequences — for the security of the United States and our allies; for +progress on global non-proliferation and progress towards disarmament; +for the credibility of the Security Council and the Non-Proliferation +Treaty; and for stability in the Middle East and beyond. +Our concern is not Iran's right to develop peaceful nuclear energy, but +its responsibility to demonstrate that its program is intended exclusively +for peaceful purposes. This is not hard to do. Iran's continued refusal to +cooperate has damaged the credibility of its claim that it does not seek a +nuclear weapon. +9 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +Iran faces a choice. The international community has made abundantly +clear what is possible for all Iranians if Iran lives up to its +responsibilities on the nuclear issue — the benefits of economic +connections to the rest of the world, cooperation on peaceful nuclear +energy, and partnership in education and science. +But there will be accompanying costs for Iran's continued defiance - +more isolation and economic pressure, and less possibility of progress +for the people of Iran. +The Obama Administration has clearly conveyed our readiness to +engage directly with Iran. We know that dialogue doesn't guarantee +success. But we also know that our past refusal to engage yielded no +progress on the nuclear issue, nor did it stem Iran's support for terrorist +groups. +Over the past eight months, the President has reached out both to the +Iranian government and people. We have made clear our desire to +resolve issues with Iran diplomatically. Iran must now decide whether +to join us in this effort. +10 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +Yet, since June, we have seen the Iranian government engaged in a +mockery of the justice system, including show trials, and suppression of +free speech. The Iranian government seeks a sense of justice in the +world, but stands in the way of the justice it seeks. +Nonetheless, we remain ready to engage with Iran — not as an end in +itself, but as a means of addressing the growing concerns that we and +our international partners have about Iran's actions, especially on the +nuclear issue. In New York next week, I will meet with my counterparts +from the United Kingdom, France, Russia, China and Germany to +discuss the way forward and prepare for talks that the European Union's +Javier Solana is arranging at the beginning of October. +Our message will be clear: We are serious. We will soon see if the +Iranians are serious. This is not about process for the sake of process. In +New York, we will work with our partners to put Iran's choice into +focus and to stress that engagement must produce real results and that +we have no appetite for talk without action. +11 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +Let me also highlight a few other issues that I will be addressing at the +General Assembly and in the months ahead: Iraq, Afghanistan and +Pakistan; development; and women. +Iraq has made important strides with the support of the United States and +the international community to build a more secure and hopeful future +for its people. We look forward to the parliamentary election next +January as an important milestone in this journey, and pledge to work +with Iraqis and the international community, including the invaluable +UN Mission to Iraq, to make these elections a success. +As a result of our common efforts, our relationship with Iraq can now +enter into a period of transition as our military draws down and the role +of civilian agencies increases to better meet the needs of the future and +ensure a stable, sovereign and independent Iraq that contributes to peace +and security in the Middle East. This reflects no lessening of our +commitment — on the contrary, it demonstrates that we have entered a +new, sustained and more mature partnership that will serve both of +countries far into the future. I'm pleased that Vice President Biden, +accompanied by my Deputy Jim Steinberg, recently returned to Iraq to +continue our robust engagement with Iraq's leaders. +12 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +The partnership between our countries will continue to build security +cooperation while strengthening diplomatic relations and building +stronger ties in commerce, rule of law, education, science and culture +through our Strategic Framework Agreement coordinating committee, a +session of which Prime Minister Maliki and I co-chaired in July.

This is a goal we +share with Afghanistan, with Pakistan and with the international +community. In fact, pursuing al-Qaida and the Taliban was the basis of +the original UN resolutions that authorized U.S. military action after the +September 1 1 th attacks and created ISAF, the International Security +Assistance Force of 42 nations helping Afghans secure their country. +13 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +Our long-term security, and that of our friends around the world, is +connected to the security and well-being of the people of Afghanistan +and Pakistan.

Next week, I will outline how we will +approach development in tandem with our diplomacy — to be effective +and efficient and enable the State Department, USAID, and the +Millennium Challenge Corporation to pursue and execute 21st century +foreign policy goals. +The foundation for our approach will be principles that will move us +away from top-down assistance that too often fails to meet the needs of +those we are attempting to help, or has only short-term effect. To solve +the complex problems of today's world — where issues like poverty, +hunger, health, and climate change intersect — we want to focus on root +causes, and on country-driven efforts that are comprehensive, last over +time, leverage existing multi-lateral institutions and foster new +partnerships, and coordinate donors and stakeholders strategically. +16 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +I will have the chance to detail this approach during my stay in New +York, and I also look forward to highlighting these issues when I +participate in an event that the UN Secretary General will host on food +security. +To successfully integrate our diplomacy and development goals at the +State Department and USAID, we have launched a Quadrennial +Diplomacy and Development Review — and, I regret to say that, in so +doing, we have added another acronym to the State lexicon: QDDR. +The QDDR, led by Deputy Secretary of State Jack Lew, is a broad +examination of our structure, policies, and budget, and will lead to better +accountability and measurable results throughout the department. +Finally, our delegation, and I personally, will work to advance +international efforts to recognize women as key drivers of economic +progress and social stability, as well as to address impediments to +women's empowerment and advancement, particularly sexual and +gender-based violence. +17 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764620 Date: 07/31/2015 +I will chair a session of the Security Council and will speak on behalf of +the adoption of a resolution on ""women, peace and security"" which will +endorse concrete measures to implement Security Council Resolution +1820 and address sexual and gender-based violence as a tactic of war. +I saw the scale of misery caused by this violence on my recent trip to the +Democratic Republic of Congo, where I met with rape survivors as well +as those trying to assist them. +Next week, I will be speaking with other foreign ministers and heads of +state about strategies to end this violence and to ensure that those who +commit atrocities are prosecuted and not treated with impunity. +I will also work with women leaders at the General Assembly to +highlight the importance of raising the status of girls and women and +investing in their potential — through education, economic development, +and health care.

They are wondering whether to support Baki in round 4 now that F-W is out. +I noted that we wanted the strongest of the ladies to stay in (Fyi, they both were on our list of the most qualified +candidates.) Too early a pull out could also affect the race. +The Egyptian candidate could lose because of a consolidation of alternative candidates. +I am sorry to report that the Egyptians have used harsh tactics in the halls of UNESCO. A member of the U.S. delegation +has seen a member of the Egyptian-hired ""public relations"" group walking around with an envelope of cash. They +pushed to have two Amb recalled.

A/S Feltman very helpfully pushed back and helped +defend our ambassador who had been criticized. +Our strategy relies on our Amb being low-key. He is following his instructions. We should be unhappy with the way he is +being attacked personally. Candidates Bukova and Baki are moving ahead on their own lobbying.

We do not yet have a copy of the complaint and we do not +know as yet whether the US Attorney's Office has in fact been served (an AUSA contact of ours did confirm that a complaint was filed +with the clerk of the court). +The details are also sketchy, but the complaint was apparently filed by an FSO. According to the inquiry that came +in from the press office, apparently alleges that she was the top pick for a position at our Embassy in Algiers, but that she was +denied the position by HR because of her age. This complaint was filed directly in district court; neither S/OCR nor our office have +any record of an administrative complaint being filed. +Our usual practice is not to comment publicly about matters in litigation. If a complaint has in fact been filed, we should have it +sometime tomorrow, and can send you an info memo with more details.

SECRETARY CLINTON GETS IT DONE; EMERGENCY +RELIEF SUPPLIES TO BE AIRLIFTED FROM GREATER LOS +ANGELES AREA TO SAMOA IN RESPONSE TO +DEVASTATING TSUNAMI +Chairman of the Subcommittee on Asia, the Pacific and the Global Environment, +Congressman Eni F.H. Faleomavaega, and Congresswoman Laura Richardson (D-CA), +announced today that the U.S. Department of State called them this morning to inform them that +Secretary Clinton has authorized the use of funds from the Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance +(OFDA) to get emergency relief supplies airlifted from the greater Los Angeles area to Samoa in +response to the devastating tsunami that struck Apia on September 29. +In his capacity as Chairman of the Asia Pacific Subcommittee which has broad +jurisdiction for U.S. foreign policy affecting the region, including Samoa, Chairman +Faleomavaega personally spoke to Secretary Clinton on Oct 1 and, in letters dated Oct 4 and Oct +5, followed up with her regarding the specific need to airlift emergency supplies to Apia, which +were gathered by the Samoan communities and congregations in the greater Los Angeles area. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764758 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764758 Date: 07/31/2015 +The Samoan communities in the greater Los Angeles directly contacted Faleomavaega +for assistance because many of their families and relatives live in his district of American Samoa +or Samoa. Congresswoman Laura Richardson has worked closely with Faleomavaega +throughout this process given that she represents part of the greater Los Angeles area, and the +Samoan communities living in that area are her constituents, +""I want to personally thank Secretary Clinton for her untiring efforts in getting these +relief supplies airlifted,"" Chairman Faleomavaega said. ""Since the tsunami struck, Secretary +Clinton has spared no effort in coming to our aid, and even called upon the U.S. Department of +Defense (DOD) to quickly move these supplies from the West Coast to Samoa. Last evening, +Congresswoman Richardson and I learned that DOD had agreed to move the supplies but that +due to legalities of moving privately-donated goods, the process would take too long."" +""In a previous conference call yesterday, anticipating that DOD might be unable to +quickly move these supplies, we requested the State Department to fund a commercial flight +through the Office of Foreign Disaster Assistance should we encounter any problems with +DOD,"" Faleomavaega and Rep. Richardson said. ""Last night, upon learning that the DOD +process would take too long and in consideration of our request for a more immediate airlift, +Secretary Clinton assessed the options while en route to Europe, and this morning the State +Department informed us that Secretary Clinton has agreed to fund the flight with OFDA funds."" +""The agreement is that this will be a one-time airlift, and our Samoan communities +should make future donations in cash, rather than in commodities. We will not be able to airlift +frozen goods, and our offices will work closely with the communities to gather the supplies to a +central location for the airlift. Also, the airlift provided by the U.S. Department of State can only +be authorized to land in Samoa. While we were also hopeful to get supplies in to American +Samoa, all matters relating to American Samoa are decided between the Governor and FEMA, +according to federal law."" +""I know from my meeting earlier this week with Prime Minister Tuilaepa Sailele +Malielegaoi that he is thankful to the Samoan congregations and communities in the greater Los +Angeles area who responded from the heart by collecting critical supplies that will now be +airlifted to those in need,"" Faleomavaega said. ""For this reason, I want to thank the Prime +Minister for agreeing to accept this gift, and I also want to thank Reverend Liki Tiatia, Reverend +John Mailo, Reverend Misipauena Tagaloa, and High Chief Loa Pele Faletogo for all the good +work they have done. Reverend Tiatia and Reverend Mailo will be taking a flight to Samoa to +make the presentation to the Government of Samoa on behalf of our Samoan community on the +West Coast and also on behalf of Congresswoman Richardson and myself."" +""I especially want to thank Congresswoman Richardson for working around the clock in +support of our Samoan communities living in her district, and in Samoa and American Samoa,"" +Faleomavaega continued. ""Congresswoman Richardson has stood by us every step of the way +and has left no stone unturned in getting this done. She has been staunch and solid in her +dedication to us, and has earned her rightful place in our hearts. It is my honor to welcome +Congresswoman Richardson into our Pacific Island family."" +""With so many people in need of basic supplies in Samoa, it has been a privilege to work +with Chairman Faleomavaega to assist the people of my district in making sure the items they +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764758 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764758 Date: 07/31/2015 +have collected will soon be in the hands of their families and friends,"" Congresswoman +Richardson said. ""This feat is only possible because of the dedication of Chairman +Faleomavaega and Secretary Clinton. Over 60 local organizations in the 37th district of +California, including church groups, non-profit organizations and caring others collected over +100,000 pounds of essential items to send to victims of the tragedy that recently occurred. The +lives of thousands of Samoans will be immediately and directly improved by the actions taken by +Secretary Clinton, Chairman Faleomavaega and all of us who answered the call to help.

""It's just too weak,"" he told me. ""It doesn't do enough It doesn't achieve real cost savings. There's no real +competition. It's pretty much a wish list for the insurance companies."" And those were merely Weiner's substantive criticisms of the +bill. His political assessment was even harsher: ""It's effectively dead,"" he said. Not a droplet of Weiner's dismissal of the Baucus +plan came as any sort of shock; he's been trashing the Senate Finance Committee's efforts for weeks. What's surprising is that anyone +gives a fig what Weiner has to say about the topic in the first place. Until six months ago, after all, the congressman was known more +for his yearning to acquire the keys to Gracie Mansion than his mastery of the arcana of Medicare reimbursement rates. In fact, as +Weiner would be the first to admit, his interest in, knowledge of, and record on health-care reform were perilously close to +nonexistent. And yet, since May, when he concluded that taking on Mike Bloomberg was a challenge that went beyond the Sisyphean +into the realm of the just plain silly, Weiner has emerged as one of the few real stars in the marathon health-care debate: the clearest +and savviest (and, as always, loudest and noodgiest) voice in favor of the public option. And though it's plain that whatever bill +eventually lands on Barack Obama's desk—and, yes, I think the odds are now close to overwhelming that a big pile of health-care +paper will wind up there—won't be anything close to Weiner's single-payer dream, his role in framing the terms of the discussion has +been more than salutary. In some non-obvious ways, you could argue that it's been essential. I should confess at the outset that I have +a long-standing soft spot for Weiner, whom I first met more than twenty years ago, when he was a budding Chuck Schumer protégé +and we played on the same Capitol Hill softball team. Weiner then was strikingly similar to Weiner now: amped-up, ambitious, +wicked smart, forever gauging all the angles, unafraid of being (actually, proud of being) a royal pain in the tuchis. All the qualities, in +other words, that have served him so well in the wrangle over health care. Weiner describes his efflorescence on the subject as a +matter of opportunism, in the best sense of the word. ""This was one of those unusual issues where we really didn't have a mother ship +that was directing the message, and that created an entrepreneurial environment,"" he says.

""It's just too weak,"" he told me. ""It doesn't do enough It doesn't achieve real cost savings. There's no real +competition. It's pretty much a wish list for the insurance companies."" And those were merely Weiner's substantive criticisms of the +bill. His political assessment was even harsher: ""It's effectively dead,"" he said. Not a droplet of Weiner's dismissal of the Baucus +plan came as any sort of shock; he's been trashing the Senate Finance Committee's efforts for weeks. What's surprising is that anyone +gives a fig what Weiner has to say about the topic in the first place. Until six months ago, after all, the congressman was known more +for his yearning to acquire the keys to Gracie Mansion than his mastery of the arcana of Medicare reimbursement rates. In fact, as +Weiner would be the first to admit, his interest in, knowledge of, and record on health-care reform were perilously close to +nonexistent. And yet, since May, when he concluded that taking on Mike Bloomberg was a challenge that went beyond the Sisyphean +into the realm of the just plain silly, Weiner has emerged as one of the few real stars in the marathon health-care debate: the clearest +and savviest (and, as always, loudest and noodgiest) voice in favor of the public option. And though it's plain that whatever bill +eventually lands on Barack Obama's desk—and, yes, I think the odds are now close to overwhelming that a big pile of health-care +paper will wind up there—won't be anything close to Weiner's single-payer dream, his role in framing the terms of the discussion has +been more than salutary. In some non-obvious ways, you could argue that it's been essential. I should confess at the outset that I have +a long-standing soft spot for Weiner, whom I first met more than twenty years ago, when he was a budding Chuck Schumer protégé +and we played on the same Capitol Hill softball team. Weiner then was strikingly similar to Weiner now: amped-up, ambitious, +wicked smart, forever gauging all the angles, unafraid of being (actually, proud of being) a royal pain in the tuchis. All the qualities, in +other words, that have served him so well in the wrangle over health care. Weiner describes his efflorescence on the subject as a +matter of opportunism, in the best sense of the word. ""This was one of those unusual issues where we really didn't have a mother ship +that was directing the message, and that created an entrepreneurial environment,"" he says. ""You didn't have the president out there +speaking clearly about what he wanted. And among my colleagues, there weren't people that jumped out who either had a comfort +with the material or weren't intimidated by the blowback"" Weiner laughs. ""Frankly, I like the blowback. After my thirteenth town- +hall meeting, someone on my staff said, 'I can't tell if you're a sadist or a masochist.— Weiner is right about the nature of the vacuum +that he smartly stepped in to fill, but there are at least two other proximate causes for it that should be added to his list: the illness and +death of Ted Kennedy and the migration of Hillary Clinton out of the Senate and into Foggy Bottom, which deprived the debate of +what would have been its two dominant liberal protagonists.

When I ask Weiner +about the incident, he refuses to divulge details, but notes that when it was over, the president said to him drily, ""I hope you're +enjoying your last trip on Air Force One."" ""He was kidding—I think,"" adds Weiner. In truth, Weiner has been on the receiving end of +zero complaints from the White House for his potshots. ""I see Rahm [Emanuel] at the House gym every morning, and he's never +beefed to me about this once,"" Weiner says. ""I think he needs this pressure from the left—it serves them. They needed someone to +generate the heat of their base to give them the space to be the moderate voice. I'm convinced that if it weren't me, they'd have to +create me."" Weiner's theory is self-serving, but it makes a kind of sense. Over the summer, Weiner, by threatening to bottle up a vote +on the main House health-care bill in the Energy and Commerce Committee, forced House Speaker Nancy Pelosi to grant him a floor +vote this fall on a single-payer plan. Weiner believes in single-payer as a matter of policy—but he also sees the political advantage of +putting forward a proposal that will at once satisfy certain elements of the base and create the appearance that the public option is +itself a compromise toward the center. And his adamant advocacy of a robust public option itself generates breathing room for the sort +of modified version that might win approval in both the House and Senate. What Weiner has no doubt about now is that the final +legislation will include just such a provision—because without it, there simply aren't the votes in the House to pass a bill. ""I think +President Obama will put his finger on the scale at some point,"" he says. In the end, it's going to be simpler to corral one or two +senators to accept a public option with some modifications than it's going to be to get a hundred House members off their rebellious +screed. From what Weiner can divine from Emanuel and others in the White House, this kind of brass-tacks calculation—not the +policy merits, not even the long-range political ramifications—is all that matters now. Obama's bizarro, out-of-nowhere acquisition of +the Nobel Peace Prize at the end of last week notwithstanding, the president has had a rough few months and badly needs to put a win +on the board. And no one is looking to make that any harder than it's been already. To illustrate why that means the public option +will prevail, Weiner colorfully sketches out his vision of the endgame: ""Obama goes to Nancy and says, 'I've decided I'm giving up +the public option.' And she says, 'Well, dude, I can't get this done then.' So then he goes to Harry Reid and says, 'We're going with +the public option. What do we have to do in Nebraska to get Ben Nelson onboard?' That's a much easier conversation."" E-mail: +jheilemann@gmail.com. Previous 1 2 Related: +Marie Ternes +Chief of Staff +Rep.

The agreement would resolve nothing immediately but +would outline steps to restore Palestinian unity. Hamas runs the Gaza Strip and Fatah dominates in the Israeli- +occupied West Bank. +The official told Reuters no new date was set for signing. +""Egypt saw it was better to delay until there is a suitable atmosphere,"" he said. +Abbas admits his government erred in approving a U.N. decision in Geneva two weeks ago to delay action on +the so-called Goldstone report, which is particularly critical of Israel for alleged war crimes during the Gaza +offensive. +He has reversed course and the issue was being reconsidered on Friday at a special session of the U.N. Human +Rights Council in Geneva, which Abbas requested. +""We are not going to let things collapse,"" said another Egyptian official of his country's lengthy mediation +between the Palestinian factions which began over a year ago. +""We will wait until the dust settles and activate efforts again and I hope that will be very soon."" +The deal would postpone Palestinian presidential and parliamentarian elections until June 28, 2010. +Fatah has signed it and this week Abbas announced that if Hamas did not sign he would go ahead with elections +in January as called for by the constitution. +It is unclear how Fatah would be able to hold a full election since Hamas has vowed to block voting in Gaza if +the ballot was scheduled without its agreement. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764842 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764842 Date: 07/31/2015 +Senior Fatah leader Azzam Al-Ahmed, who carried the signed document to Cairo, said the group would not +seek to hold elections in the West Bank alone. +He said failure to reach an agreement could delay the vote ""indefinitely"", which would prolong the divisions +and weaken Abbas's peace approach. +Hamas officials said they had asked Cairo for another three days to give a final response. +\\10.40.0.17\ReutersFeedAm1Data\2009-10-16T103716Z_Ol_LG580148_RTRIDST_O_PALESTINIANS- +EGYPT-FACTIONS XML +Regards, +Chris Snipes +Watch Officer +State Department Operations Center +202-647-1512 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764842 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +2994,C05764843,HONDURAS MILITARY COUP DECISION,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-08-29T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_035/DOC_0C05764843/C05764843.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Re: Honduras Military Coup Decision,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Sullivan, Jacob J ","Saturday, August 29, 2009 8:17 AM",F-2014-20439,C05764843,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Will call you around 3pm,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764843 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B5,B6 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Saturday, August 29, 2009 8:17 AM +To: +Subject: Re: Honduras Military Coup Decision +Will call you around 3pm +Original Message +From: H +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sat Aug 29 07:48:20 2009 +Subject: Re: Honduras Military Coup Decision +Ok--i should be free after 2.

Under a previous order of the House, the gentlewoman from Florida (Ms. Ros-Lehtinen) is +recognized for 5 minutes. +Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express my longstanding commitment to assist the Haitian people in +their pursuit of a stable, prosperous and democratic future. +During my trip to Haiti, I was reminded of the tremendous challenges facing this island nation. The U.N.'s appointment +of President Clinton as special envoy to Haiti has helped to keep a much-needed spotlight on Haiti. President Clinton's +appointment of Dr. Paul Farmer as the Deputy U.N. Special Envoy for Haiti, adds an invaluable wealth of experience and +knowledge to the U.N.'s work in Haiti. +As a founder of Partners in Health and the Institute for Justice & Democracy in Haiti, Dr. Farmer has demonstrated a +selfless commitment to the advancement of health and democracy in Haiti for the past 20 years. I have witnessed +firsthand Dr. Farmer's dedication to helping improve the lives of those in need. +He has strong south Florida ties. I am proud to call him a friend, along with our mutual friend, Jennie Block, who has also +worked so hard on issues of concern to the Haitian community. +I understand that the conference on the Inter-American Development Bank in Haiti went quite well. I was pleased to see +that the United Nations voted unanimously this week to extend the authorization for the U.N. Mission in Haiti for +another year. +I would also like to take a moment to express my condolences to the families of those who lost their lives in last +weekend's plane crash during a U.N. mission. The U.N. mission in Haiti has helped to play an important role in bringing +security and stability to some of the most dangerous neighborhoods in Haiti. I continue to support its mission and the +many men and women from around the world who work to carry it out. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764853 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764853 Date: 07/31/2015 +However, it seems that Haiti just can't get to the next step. From assistance to debt relief, from trade benefits to +hurricane recovery, U.S. policy toward Haiti has run the gamut, but it is not achieving the long-term goals that we had +hoped for for the Haitian people and that the Haitian people want for themselves and their nation. +I am pleased to know that our State Department is taking'a closerlook at some of the challenges we are facing in Haiti. +Last week, Secretary Clinton's chief of staff and her point person on Haiti briefed Members on some of the initial +findings of this review. +I am confident that this review will help us to better understand how U.S. assistance to Haiti can be better targeted and +supportive of Haiti's own plans and goals; how assistance within the donor community can be better coordinated; how +the U.S. can better engage the Haitian Diaspora in our assistance efforts; and, finally, how the U.S. can finally make our +assistance sustainable so that outside efforts can ultimately be transferred into the hands of the Haitian government +and its people. +It is crucial that the efforts made by the U.S., the U.N. and others are effectively coordinated to ensure maximum +efficiency and maximum benefit for the people of Haiti. Innovative microcredit and microenterprise programs would +help to empower individuals, create self-reliance and create sustainability at the grassroots level. We should also look at +the very small-scale renewable energy programs for impoverished rural villages and settlements that are not served by +electric grids. +One of the immediate ways we can help the people of Haiti would be to grant temporary protected status to the +Haitians currently living in the U.S. Granting TPS to Haitians is the missing piece of a successful U.S. approach to +supporting the people of Haiti in the short and long term. I will continue to work with my colleagues to encourage the +administration to take this important step. +In addition, I will continue to support Haiti's inclusion in security initiatives, such as the Merida Initiative, to ensure that +the U.S. is doing all we can to help President Preval in his efforts against the narcotraffickers. +Success in Haiti is in the U.S. national security interest, and we must work together to help address the many challenges +we face and that our Caribbean neighbor faces day in and day out. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764853 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3002,C05764854,SENIOR LEADERSHIP RETREAT - NOTIONAL TIMELINE,,,,2009-10-03T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_038-039/DOC_0C05764854/C05764854.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05764854,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764854 Date: 07/31/2015 +Senior Leadership Retreat +Department of State +Whitehaven (or Department) +October 3, 2009 +Notional Timeline +9:00am: Coffee +9:15am: General Retreat Impressions +9:30am: Specific Takeaways and Tasking +• Review list of Takeaways +• Discussing Tasking and Follow-Up +RELEASE IN FULL +10:00am: +11:00am +Building Our Leadership Team Connection +• Collaboration and Communication +• Operational Flows (Paper, Clearance, Communication, etc.) +• Seen/Heard in the Building +o 3 criticisms and ways to approach; +o 1 praise and way to multiply +Creating a Leadership Culture +• Listening and Responding +• Inviting Appropriate Risk-Taking and Creativity +• Embracing Broad Accountability +• Empowering Your Respective Teams +Noon Close +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764854 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3003,C05764855,"ICC PROSECUTOR RECEIVES PALESTINIAN MINISTER OF JUSTICE, ARAB LEAGUE AND INDEPENDENT FACT-FINDING COMMITTEE",H,"Koh, Harold Hongju",77,2009-10-16T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_040_042_043/DOC_0C05764855/C05764855.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,"Fw: ICC Prosecutor receives Palestinian Minister of Justice, Arab League and Independent Fact-Finding",,"Koh, Harold Hongju ","Townley, Stephen G","Friday, October 16, 2009 12:29 PM",F-2014-20439,C05764855,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Independent Fact-Finding Committee>,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764855 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Koh, Harold Hongju +Sent: Friday, October 16, 2009 12:29 PM +To: +Subject FW: ICC Prosecutor receives Palestinian Minister of Justice, Arab League and +Independent Fact-Finding Committee> +From: Schwartz, Jonathan B +Sent: Friday, October 16, 2009 12:26 PM +To: Donoghue, Joan E; Harris, Robert K; Koh, Harold Hongju +Cc: Townley, Stephen G +Subject: Fw: ICC Prosecutor receives Palestinian Minister of Justice, Arab League and Independent Fact-Finding +Committee> +I am still with the Israeli delegation and am waiting for the moment they hear this.

Last year the Obama administration actually thought about having it +shut down as a price of Mrs. Clinton becoming Secretary of State, fearful that Bill's schmoozing of wealthy +philanthropists could compromise his wife's role as America's top diplomat. Now, Obama is going to be topping +the bill, outshining the A-list celebrities, heads of state and corporate titans who pack the hall for the annual +""Philanthropy Oscars."" +Yet the most important speech at the event may not be delivered by either the current or the former president +but by Mrs. Clinton herself. She has said the State Department is going to forge new partnerships with +philanthropists to achieve America's foreign policy goals (and has already started work on a new initiative +around the Middle East peace process). Her speech is an opportunity to announce a radical new departure in the +way America gives aid. +The aid business in crisis. The past year may have been tough for the world's richest countries, but it has been +far harder for the poorest. Markets for exports have slumped as rich consumers have reined in their spending. +Government budgets are creaking under the strain of the global recession and foreign aid is threatening to dry +up. At the same time, the intellectual attack on aid has escalated, led by the author of ""Dead Aid"", the African +economist, Dambisa Moyo. +The CGI has become the showcase for those who believe Moyo is wrong and that aid can be effective. The CGI +is not about the old government-to-government aid model. Its members aim to deliver smart aid, based on +partnerships between business, philanthropists, and social entrepreneurs. Mrs. Clinton's speech is the perfect +opportunity to show that government is ready to work with the CGI crowd to rethink how it does aid. +One promising, for-profit solution to poverty is to take the model of microfinance -- one of the more resilient +corners of banking during the financial crisis -- and extend it to improve education, health care, clean water and +sanitation. Loan-based investments can be more sustainable than traditional aid or charity, because they tap the +far larger sums available in the capital markets and are not dependent on the whims of political leaders or +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764894 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764894 Date: 07/31/2015 +budgetary wrangling. Some in government may be reluctant to give up their near monopoly on aid but it is long +overdue. +A second opportunity is to get the public more involved in the aid business. New giving organizations such as +Kiva have demonstrated how the public can play an effective role in allocating money to needy people. +Government should be doing all it can to encourage his type of mass philanthrocapitalism that levers the +generosity of the American people and taps into the wisdom of crowds. It is time for government aid to be made +more democratic by letting Kiva and others like it distribute some of the tax dollars. +Finally, Mrs. Clinton should seize the opportunity to turn the aid business on its head and pass control from the +bureaucrats to the poor people themselves. Technology such as the internet and the mobile phone are now +widespread in the developing world, so why not use these tools to give a greater voice in aid spending to the +people the money is intended to help? Much aid has gone to waste because of a lack of feedback from the +intended beneficiaries. Imagine how the best technology entrepreneurs could transform the aid business, in the +same way that they have changed the media, by giving the poor a say in how the aid billions are spent. +The Obama Administration has made all the right noises about making government smarter by working more +with the philanthrocapitalists. At home, the creation of a White House Office of Social Innovation was a +welcome first move, yet it is still to be seen whether this will amount to much more than a new source of grant +funding for the nonprofit sector. The big win is in remaking government through innovative partnerships with +the private sector. Mrs Clinton has been mulling over what to do with USAID for nearly a year.

Downing Street claimed that +this was not unusual. +However, a British diplomat told The Daily Telegraph that the White House's refusal to meet Mr Brown had +been a serious embarrassment for the Prime Minister. +""It is wrong for people to say that we have been relaxed about the way things have gone,"" the source said. +""There were five attempts to set up a meeting and none have come off."" +The most striking example of Downing Street's desperation to engineer a meeting was a change of policy on +supplying swine flu vaccines to Africa. It aimed to match America's commitment and was announced last week. +As a result, it had been hoped that Mr Obama would agree to a joint press conference, according to a senior +source. However, the meeting never happened. +The White House said that Mr Brown and Mr Obama would chair a meeting tonight about Pakistan, and would +""spend all day Friday together."" However, Friday's meeting in Pittsburgh involves the full G20 group of world +leaders. +The release=2 Oof the Lockerbie bomber, Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi, appears to have been behind the +new chill in relations between Washington and London. +Mr Obama expressed his dismay at the release in a telephone call with the Prime Minister earlier this month. +Downing Street's original account of the conversation failed to refer to the President's anger. +Mr Brown has maintained that freeing the Libyan was a matter entirely for the Scottish executive. +Nearly 200 Americans died when Pan Am flight 103 was blown up over Scotland in 1988.

Sid +Barack Obama rebuffs Gordon Brown as 'special +relationship' sinks to new low +Gordon Brown has been snubbed repeatedly by Barack Obama +during his trip to the United States, as the fall-out from the release of +the Lockerbie bomber appeared to have left ""the special relationship"" +at its lowest ebb for nearly 20 years. +By Andrew Porter, Political Editor in New York +Published: 11:49PM BST 23 Sep 2009 +British officials made five attempts to secure official talks with the US President and even agreed to a policy +change in an attempt to land a joint appearance between the two leaders, said diplomatic sources. +But the White House rebuffed the offers and Mr Brown, who had hoped to increase his popularity by appearing +on his own with Mr Obama, had to settle instead for a snatched conversation with the President in a New York +kitchen. +The setbacks led to fears that relati ons between Downing Street and the White House were at their lowest point +since John Major's frosty dealings with Bill Clinton. +It was disclosed earlier this week that Mr Brown would not hold bilateral talks with Mr Obama, despite the +President hosting individual meetings with the leaders of Japan, China and Russia. Downing Street claimed that +this was not unusual. +However, a British diplomat told The Daily Telegraph that the White House's refusal to meet Mr Brown had +been a serious embarrassment for the Prime Minister. +""It is wrong for people to say that we have been relaxed about the way things have gone,"" the source said. +""There were five attempts to set up a meeting and none have come off."" +The most striking example of Downing Street's desperation to engineer a meeting was a change of policy on +supplying swine flu vaccines to Africa. It aimed to match America's commitment and was announced last week. +As a result, it had been hoped that Mr Obama would agree to a joint press conference, according to a senior +source. However, the meeting never happened. +The White House said that Mr Brown and Mr Obama would chair a meeting tonight about Pakistan, and would +""spend all day Friday together."" However, Friday's meeting in Pittsburgh involves the full G20 group of world +leaders. +The release=2 Oof the Lockerbie bomber, Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed al Megrahi, appears to have been behind the +new chill in relations between Washington and London. +Mr Obama expressed his dismay at the release in a telephone call with the Prime Minister earlier this month. +Downing Street's original account of the conversation failed to refer to the President's anger. +Mr Brown has maintained that freeing the Libyan was a matter entirely for the Scottish executive. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764896 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764896 Date: 07/31/2015 +Nearly 200 Americans died when Pan Am flight 103 was blown up over Scotland in 1988.

She has said the State Department is going to forge new partnerships with philanthropists to +achieve America's foreign policy goals (and has already started work on a new initiative around the Middle East peace +process). Her speech is an opportunity to announce a radical new departure in the way America gives aid. +The aid business in crisis. The past year may have been tough for the world's richest countries, but it has been far harder +for the poorest. Markets for exports have slumped as rich consumers have reined in their spending. Government +budgets are creaking under the strain of the global recession and foreign aid is threatening to dry up. At the same time, +the intellectual attack on aid has escalated, led by the author of ""Dead Aid"" , the African economist, Dambisa Moyo. +The CGI has become the showcase for those who believe Moyo is wrong and that aid can be effective. The CGI is not +about the old government-to-government aid model. Its members aim to deliver smart aid, based on partnerships +between business, philanthropists, and social entrepreneurs. Mrs. Clinton's speech is the perfect opportunity to show +that government is ready to work with the CGI crowd to rethink how it does aid. +One promising, for-profit solution to poverty is to take the model of microfinance -- one of the more resilient corners of +banking during the financial crisis -- and extend it to improve education, health care, clean water and sanitation. Loan- +based investments can be more sustainable than traditional aid or charity, because they tap the far larger sums available +in the capital markets and are not dependent on the whims of political leaders or budgetary wrangling. Some in +government may be reluctant to give up their near monopoly on aid but it is long overdue. +A second opportunity is to get the public more involved in the aid business. New giving organizations such as Kiva + have demonstrated how the public can play an effective role in allocating money to +needy people . +Government should be doing all it can to encourage his type of mass philanthrocapitalism that levers the generosity of +the American people and taps into the wisdom of crowds. It is time for government aid to be made more democratic by +letting Kiva and others like it distribute some of the tax dollars. +Finally, Mrs. Clinton should seize the opportunity to turn the aid business on its head and pass control from the +bureaucrats to the poor people themselves. Technology such as the internet and the mobile phone are now widespread +in the developing world, so why not use these tools to give a greater voice in aid spending to the people the money is +intended to help? Much aid has gone to waste because of a lack of feedback from the intended beneficiaries. Imagine +how the best technology entrepreneurs could transform the aid business, in the same way that they have changed the +media, by giving the poor a say in how the aid billions are spent. +The Obama Administration has made all the right noises about making government smarter by working more with the +philanthrocapitalists. At home, the creation of a White House Office of Social Innovation + was a welcome first move, yet it is still to be seen whether this will amount to much +more than a new source of grant funding for the nonprofit sector. The big win is in remaking government through +innovative partnerships with the private sector. Mrs Clinton has been mulling over what to do with USAID for nearly a +year.

""Their energies are misdirected."" +At issue is the detection by American intelligence agencies of a suspicious missile test +on April 23 — a test never announced by the Pakistanis — that appeared to give the +country a new offensive weapon. +323 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764905 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764905 Date: 07/31/2015 +American military and intelligence officials say they suspect that Pakistan has modified +the Harpoon antiship missiles that the United States sold the country in the 198os, a +move that would be a violation of the Arms Control Export Act. Pakistan has denied the +charge, saying it developed the missile itself. The United States has also accused +Pakistan of modifying American-made P-3C aircraft for land-attack missions, another +violation of United States law that the Obama administration has protested. +Whatever their origin, the missiles would be a significant new entry into Pakistan's +arsenal against India. They would enable Pakistan's small navy to strike targets on +land, complementing the sizable land-based missile arsenal that Pakistan has +developed. That, in turn, would be likely to spur another round of an arms race with +India that the United States has been trying, unsuccessfully, to halt. ""The focus of our +concern is that this is a potential unauthorized modification of a maritime antiship +defensive capability to an offensive land-attack missile,"" said another senior +administration official, who also spoke on the condition of anonymity because the +matter involves classified information. +""The potential for proliferation and end-use violations are things we watch very +closely,"" the official added. ""When we have concerns, we act aggressively."" +A senior Pakistani official, also speaking on the condition of anonymity because the +interchanges with Washington have been both delicate and highly classified, said the +American accusation was ""incorrect."" The official said that the missile tested was +developed by Pakistan, just as it had modified North Korean designs to build a range of +land-based missiles that could strike India. He said that Pakistan had taken the +unusual step of agreeing to allow American officials to inspect the country's Harpoon +inventory to prove that it had not violated the law, a step that administration officials +praised. +Some experts are also skeptical of the American claims. Robert Hewson, editor of +Jane's Air Launched Weapons, a yearbook and Web-based data service, said the +Harpoon missile did not have the necessary range for a land-attack missile, which +would lend credibility to Pakistani claims that they are developing their own new +missile. Moreover, he said, Pakistan already has more modern land-attack missiles that +it developed itself or acquired from China. +""They're beyond the need to reverse-engineer old U.S. kit,"" Mr. Hewson said in a +telephone interview. ""They're more sophisticated than that."" Mr. Hewson said the ship- +to-shore missile that Pakistan was testing was part of a concerted effort to develop an +324 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764905 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764905 Date: 07/31/2015 +array of conventional missiles that could be fired from the air, land or sea to address +India's much more formidable conventional missile arsenal. +The dispute highlights the level of mistrust that remains between the United States and +a Pakistani military that American officials like to portray as an increasingly reliable +partner in the effort to root out the forces of the Taliban and Al Qaeda on Pakistani +territory. A central element of the American effort has been to get the military +refocused on the internal threat facing the country, rather than on threat the country +believes it still faces from India. +Pakistani officials have insisted that they are making that shift. But the evidence +continues to point to heavy investments in both nuclear and conventional weapons that +experts say have no utility in the battle against insurgents. +Over the years, the United States has provided a total of 165 Harpoon missiles to +Pakistan, including 37 of the older-model weapons that were delivered from 1985 to +1988, said Charles Taylor, a spokesman for the Defense Security Cooperation Agency. +The country's nuclear arsenal is expanding faster than any other nation's. In May, +Pakistan conducted a test firing of its Babur medium-range cruise missile, a weapon +that military experts say could potentially be tipped with a nuclear warhead. The test +was conducted on May 6, during a visit to Washington by President Asif Ali Zardari, +but was not made public by Pakistani officials until three days after the meetings had +ended to avoid upsetting the talks. While it may be technically possible to arm the +Harpoons with small nuclear weapons, outside experts say it would probably not be +necessary. +Before Congress departed for its summer recess, administration officials briefed crucial +legislators on the protest to Pakistan.

In Goma last week, I saw both. +The Mugunga Internally Displaced Persons Camp sits in a land of volcanoes and great lakes on the edge of Goma, a +provincial capital in the eastern Congo. The camp is now home to 18,000 people seeking refuge from a cycle of violent +conflict that has left 5.4 million dead since 1998. Chased from their homes and villages by armed rebels and informal +militias, these men, women and children walked for miles with little food or water until they reached this relatively safe +haven. +Now they live in tents, one next to the other, row after row, some clinging to life, others hanging on to whatever +glimmer of hope remains in a region plagued by years of brutality. Many of these people have been robbed of their +homes, possessions, families and, worst of all, their dignity. +Women and girls in particular have been victimized on an unimaginable scale, as sexual and gender-based violence has +become a tactic of war and has reached epidemic proportions. Some 1,100 rapes are reported each month, with an +average of 36 women and girls raped every day. +I visited a hospital run by the organization Heal Africa and met a woman who told me that she was eight months' +pregnant when she was attacked. She was at home when a group of men broke in. They took her husband and two of +their children and shot them in the front yard, before returning into the house to shoot her other two children. Then +they beat and gang-raped her and left her for dead. But she wasn't dead. She fought for life and her neighbors managed +to get her to the hospital — 85 kilometers away. +I came to Goma to send a clear message: The United States condemns these attacks and all those who commit them and +abet them. They are crimes against humanity. +These acts don't just harm a single individual, or a single family, or village, or group. They shred the fabric that weaves us +together as human beings. Such atrocities have no place in any society. This truly is humanity at its worst. +But there is reason to hope. We have seen survivors summon the courage to rebuild their lives and their communities. +We have seen civic leaders and organizations come together to combat this appalling scourge. And we have seen health +care workers sacrifice comfortable careers so they can treat the wounded +in Goma, I met doctors and advocates who work every day to repair the broken bodies and spirits of women who have +been raped, often by gangs, and often in such brutal fashion that they can no longer bear children, or walk or work. +Caregivers like Lyn Lusi, who founded Heal Africa in Goma, and Dr. Denis Mukwege, who founded the Panzi hospital in +Bukavu, represent humanity at its best. +The United States will stand with these brave people. This week I announced more than $17 million in new funding to +prevent and respond to gender and sexual violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo. We will provide medical care, +counseling, economic assistance and legal support. We will dedicate nearly $3 million to recruit and train police officers +to protect women and girls and to investigate sexual violence. We will send technology experts to help women and +front-line workers report abuse using photographs and video and share information on treatment and legal options. And +we will deploy a team of civilian experts, medical personnel and military engineers to assess how we can further assist +survivors of sexual violence. +While I was in the DRC, I had very frank discussions about sexual violence with President Kabila. I stressed that the +perpetrators of these crimes, no matter who they are, must be prosecuted and punished. This is particularly important +when they are in positions of authority, including members of the Congolese military, who have been allowed to commit +these crimes with impunity. +Our commitment to survivors of sexual and gender-based violence did not begin with my visit to Goma, and it will not +end with my departure. +We are redoubling our efforts to address the fundamental cause of this violence: the fighting that goes on and on in the +eastern Congo. We will be taking additional steps at the United Nations and in concert with other nations to bring an +end to this conflict. +There is an old Congolese proverb that says, ""No matter how long the night, the day is sure to come."" The day must +come when the women of the eastern Congo can walk freely again, to tend their fields, play with their children and +collect firewood and water without fear. They live in a region of unrivaled natural beauty and rich resources. They are +strong and resilient. They could, if given the opportunity, drive economic and social progress that would make their +country both peaceful and prosperous. +Working together, we will banish sexual violence into the dark past, where it belongs, and help the Congolese people +seize the opportunities of a new day.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764944 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Reines, Philippe I +Sent: Monday, August 31, 2009 11:17 AM +To: +Cc: Verveer, Melanne S; Abedin, Huma +Subject: People Op-ed +At bottom is the People op-ed.

We took the +opportunity to discuss the nominations of Tom Shannon and Arturo Valenzuela. As you know, DeMint has +been very outspoken regarding Zelaya's ouster in Honduras. +With respect to Tom, it appears as though little has changed - DeMint still appears to be insisting on some +amount of floor debate followed by a roll call vote on the nomination. How much time and when is still +something that needs to be worked out. We've been following up on our end, but the DeMint camp has +slow walked things a bit. We expect to come to some agreement when the Senate reconvenes. +Arturo's nomination is in a different posture. As we approached the Senate's August recess, there +appeared to be some loosening of DeMint's hold on him. After speaking with DeMint's staff, we're still +hopeful that we could get Arturo confirmed by either voice vote or by unanimous consent when the Senate +returns. However, Chris warned that DeMint is monitoring closely the Administration's position +with regards to sanctions.

Will send PIR comments shortly. +To: CDM +Fr: Caitlin +Re: Branch Book +Overview: +There are few surprises in this book. The ""surprises"" that might exist are buried and took a close reading to pick +up on—the two main ones are about the terror clause of WJC's crime bill and why he hadn't disclosed +information about Lewinsky (because he hadn't wanted to become a witness against her). There are a lot of +things that have been covered in My Life and other publications. Quite honestly the book was pretty boring and +much more focused on Branch than I had anticipated. While not as ""and this day, and the next day"" as My Life, +it does share many of the same elements that would engage only a true Clinton fanatic or historian. The fact that +there appears to be no index also makes it difficult for anyone looking for a quick hit to get one. Furthermore, +WJC's words are so interlaced with Branch's recollection through his dictations, that the number of direct WJC +quotes was far fewer than I had expected. +HRC was not as much of a player as one might imagine. Her role is largely seen through her interactions with +Branch when he is recording WJC. Her statements were consistent with the past, with the exception of the +Gephardt comment, and didn't grab much attention at all.Ell (Others included HRC's devotion to CVC, thought +that there should not be a special prosecutor and images of her returning from meetings. They were pretty much +aligned with her interactions with Branch.) Surprisingly, or not surprisingly, many of the problems discussed in +the book are those, which face the current Administration—Middle East peace, North Korea, China, etc... +Branch repeatedly injects his feelings on specific subjects and seems to use the book to voice his own opinion +of the Administration and events of the time. He clearly has topics he prefers over others (for example his +connection with the events in Haiti result in a lot of discussion about it), but there are some subjects that are +strikingly sparsely discussed such as Rwanda. Its absence from long discussions was surprising, but it did not +appear as thought WJC ever-dodged questions about the topic, they just weren't addressed. Much like My Life, +one theme that repeated itself was WJC's conflict with and disdain for the media, especially long passages +about NYT and Washington Post. There are a few instances where gives them credit on their reporting, but you +would be hard-pressed to find them. Additionally, there are numerous mentions of WJC's acute allergies and his +chronic fatigue, with imagery of him falling asleep in sessions on more than a couple occasions. +The book has quite a bit on Whitewater, but given the dearth of public documentation there is little that Branch +could write that hadn't been said. One thing I had not recalled was the D'Amato's subpoena of CVC's friends, +later quashed, who slept over while HRC's Rose Law Firm records were in the White House. Branch does +portray a helpful distinction in how WJC looked at Whitewater and other scandals. While WJC attacks +Whitewater as a political hunt, Branch does have him WJC saying that Filegate needed to be separated from +Whitewater, because this was a legitimate inquiry. There are some quips that could catch someone's eye, such +as WJC referring to Paula Jones as ""a 'new bimbo' he [WJC] didn't even recognize."" +Branch does not dwell on Lewinsky or the impeachment. With the exception of Bruce, Bennett and Kendall, no +other lawyers are mentioned. There is one passage that I am looking into, in which WJC says part of the reason +he didn't mention his relationship with Lewinsky at first was because she was being threatened with jail time if +she was found to be lying under oath and had he told the truth he could become a witness against her. This is a +very small passage that could easily be missed, but one that it is important to note as I don't recall hearing this +before. (This is addressed more fully below.) +There are a few relationships that track through the book more than others. They include WJC's relationship +with Gore, which maps in part because it is not a focal point until the end, and his contentious relationship with +Janet Reno. The one Senator that appears to be most discussed negatively is Moynihan. All three of these issues +are discussed in turn below. WJC is portrayed as an extremely loving and attentive father and HRC is portrayed +in a much more human light than other books/articles covering this time period, with ample mention of her +relationship with CVC and images of affection between her and WJC, both pre- and post-impeachment. +On foreign relations there is a lot of time spent discussing the Middle East, Northern Ireland, the Balkans, +China, Russia, Pakistan/India and in the beginning of the book, Haiti. (Note: Much of what is written about +Haiti is about Branch's own experience there and on the subject.) There is also a fair amount of discussion +about North Korea, but nothing that has not been discussed in the past few weeks. Bin Laden is discussed in +what seems to track mention of him in My Life, which seems to have more detail and background than this +book. +In certain cases there is more detail here than in My Life, for example on his trip to Pakistan WJC wrote that the +USSS cancelled one stop because they would be ""defenseless"" flying in, whereas Brach writes that the streets +would be lined with ""assassins."" There are candid looks at WJC's take on certain people and the relationship +between some, such as Albright and Berger's dislike of Holbrooke, and a more detailed depiction of Yeltsin's +drinking, such as yelling outside of Blair House for a cab to get pizza. +One thing to note, is that often times WJC seems to be speaking to Branch intentionally without the recorders +going, but Branch writes about those interactions and exchanges nonetheless. Such is the case with HRC's +Gephardt comment. +The following items are addressed in the memo: +Wen Ho Lee and Terror Clause of Crime Bill 4 +WJC and Lewinsky's Silence 4 +HRC and Kissinger 4 +HRC and gay/lesbian 5 +Tension with Moynihan 5 +HRC as World Player 5 +Jesse Jackson 6 +Tension with Janet Reno 6 +Portrayal of Carter 7 +Relationship with Gore 8 +Other (This includes: Maggie recommending Panetta, HRC and Haiti Invasion, ITAV co-author flap, +Subpoenas of CVC's Friends, Vernon Jordan on Extramarital Sex, Gore/HRC ticket, WJC suggesting Rubin run +for Senate, Trip to South Asia) 11 +Wen Ho Lee and Terror Clause of Crime Bill +In discussing Wen Ho Lee's release Branch characterizes WJC's lack of knowledge about the strained +interpretation of the anti-terrorist provisions in the crime bill and arbitrary detentions as a ""confession."" My Life +only mentions Lee's accusation in passing and does not again discuss Lee. Below are two passages from +Branch's book the first giving context and the second about the Terror Clause of the Crime Bill. +➢ The year closed on spies and terrorism. The Justice Department, after fierce debate among the security +agencies, indicted nuclear scientist Wen Ho Lee on fifty-nine counts of copying classified material to his +personal computer. Lee was being handled like a radioactive espionage defendant—no bail, lockdown, +solitary confinement—even though the long dragnet had produced no evidence that he offered secrets to +China or anyone else. The president said experts were telling him the worst spies sometimes stored their +treason for a rainy day. This sounded fishy to me. Clinton shrugged. Nothing would please him more +than to establish Lee's innocence. [Branch, 577] +➢ While Lee was indicted, Branch writes that WJC noted that others ""were being held in secret, uncharged +and untried...He [WJC] was embarrassed not to have sponsored this measure into law without +foreseeing such arbitrary detentions...Under the terrorist act, any prosecutor should decide within the +legal limit...whether to bring charges on the testimony of a secret informant or otherwise. To his +dismay, Clinton had learned of defendants held incommunicado for more than six months. One extreme +detention had last three years. 'I think it's wrong,' he [WJC] said. 'It's not American. We accept guilty +people on the street to enjoy and protect our freedom.' [Branch, 629] +WJC and Lewinsky's Silence +Branch writes that part of WJC's motive for not discussing what had happened with Lewinsky was that it could +send her to jail, as she had denied it. +➢ ""Also, he pointed out that Starr had been threatening to jail Lewinsky all year over her sworn denial of +the affair. If Clinton had come forward with anything at all about their relationship, he said Starr could +have turned him into a witness against Lewinsky, betraying her discreet silence. Such subtleties, while +original, struck me as tendentious. The president never claimed chivalry as the real motive for his +steadfast denial, nor did he dispute the essential truth of Lewinsky's account."" [Branch, 511] +HRC and Kissinger +The following could be fodder for people who want to continue to string along the notion of channeling Eleanor +Roosevelt. +➢ There is a passage in which HRC describes an exchange she had with Kissinger at a dinner where he +complained that if the health care bill passed he wouldn't be able to see his own doctor. She continued to +say ""it was interesting, in fact, that she had dreamed about Kissinger only a few nights before. His +visage turned suddenly effervescent at a banquet, announcing gladly that his worries were over because +the Clinton health care bill was dying. 'Oh, no, Dr. Kissinger,' she replied coolly. 'Don't be sure that it's +dead. We'll keep fighting, and there's always light at the end of the tunnel.' She said Kissing blanched, +speechless at her deft reminder of the Vietnam War...Now at last, in Hillary's dream, it registered that +his strategic designs had spewed carnage and venom for seven needless years...'That's what I dreamed,' +Hillary repeated, lost in thought. 'You know, I always get my revenge in dreams, but never in real life.' +[Branch, 179] +HRC and gay/lesbian +Writing about a call with HRC from NYS, Branch recalls how WJC's counsel got very ""exercised."" WJC left +the room. ""He was subdued on his return. 'You know, I've had a lot more contact with gay people in my life +than Hillary.' He sighed. Her temperament had a conservative, religious core, formed before homosexual issues +were even mentionable. New York politics was a tough crucible, and she was unsure what heat she could take. +On the other hand, personal experience could speed adaptation."" [Branch, 551] +Tension with Moynihan +There are several occasions throughout the book that Branch recalls WJC's grievances and frustration with +Moynihan. For example: +> When Moynihan called for the international arms embargo to be unilaterally lifted so that Bosnia could +fight for themselves, Branch writes, ""The president flinched when I mentioned [it]...'That's just a +freebie for him,' snapped Clinton, 'and he knows it.'"" [p.140] +> In regard to health care: ""Echoing comments by Hillary at dinner, he [WJC] faulted Senator Moynihan +for aimless hearings conducted without a strategy or theme."" [p.170] +➢ Discussing Independent Counsel: ""She [HRC] was especially scornful of the Democrats, and quoted a +number of them. Senator Moynihan, for instance, publicly said the Clintons were nice people and he was +sure they had nothing to hide. 'Why not have an investigation?' he often asked. She said Moynihan +skated blithely on the surface, never produced results in Congress, and could not withstand such scrutiny +himself for five minutes, living in an apartment secured through his chairmanship of the Pennsylvania +Avenue Development Corporation."" [Brach, 182] +➢ ""Donnybrook"" argument in which Moynihan said of a fundraising speech WJC gave citing a regretted +hypothetical about a controversial decision. Moynihan told the press, ""He doesn't understand...that he's +conceding the principles."" WJC confronted him about lack of context given to the statement to the press +and said that Moynihan knew what he was doing by ""feeding the beast of hostile presumption about +Clinton's motives."" [Branch, 299] +HRC as World Player +There are several images as HRC as a player on the world stage, both with WJC and on her own. Several +examples follow: +➢ Middle East: Discussing peace with King Hussein: ""They had retreated for lunch as two couples—the +Clintons, with the king and his wife, Queen Noor—in the family dining room... Their agenda was a +delicate race between Hussein's failing health and his desire to make peace with Israel. The president +said he and Hillary pounded away on symptoms of national estrangement: closed boarders, water +disputes, travel barriers, war grievances, contested airspace, sealed electrical grids, and so on. Hussein +gave them a feast of goodwill without commitment on any point."" [Branch, 170] +> South Asia: Regarding her trip to South Asia with CVC in 1995, ""Her [HRC's] schedule was far more +demanding than ceremonial, pushing both conflict resolution and civic empowerment for downtrodden +women."" [Branch, 236] Later Branch tells of Benazir Bhutto praising CVC and HRC. ""By contrast with +a superficial American press, which portrayed Hillary as a demure tourist of no policy significance in +exotic Asia, Bhutto said she had touched essential political chords with whirlwind encouragements for +citizenship groups and small-scale economic development."" (The note contrasting Bhutto corresponds to +a NYT article which Branch quotes in the footer saying, ""she [HRC] played the traditional role of First +Lady as wife and mother..."") [Branch, 246] +> China Speech: Branch outlines how HRC felt the speech needed to be bigger than China and how she +depicted the ""harsh reality everywhere"" from China to Africa. He then cites WJC commenting on the +rave reviews of HRC's speech. [Branch, 289] +➢ Regarding the Russian financial system meltdown, Branch writes ""Yeltsin seemed so removed from +urgent political tasks that both Clintons counseled him directly."" [Branch, 512-513] +Jesse Jackson +Branch writes about Jesse Jackson calling CVC after the Lewinsky story broke and having continued contact +with her throughout the period. WJC thanks him for his support of CVC. This goes into some detail about WJCs +gratitude, but the fact that Jackson ""counseled"" CVC has been public knowledge dating back to at least 1999. +➢ ""But now Jesse had done something he would not forget. When the Lewinsky news broke, he called +Chelsea at Stanford. Jesse was the only nonfamily adult with her cell phone number. How he got it was +another story. Jesse said he knew this was terrible for her. Nothing like it had ever happened in +American politics. He did not know everything involved, but he wanted to remind Chelsea how much +her parents loved her. Their family needed to stick together now above all, and if she needed to counsel, +rage, or pray, he was always available."" [Branch, 497] +Tension with Janet Reno +Throughout the book, from his nomination of her, WJC is portrayed as having no opinion to having a negative +opinion of Janet Reno. +> ""He complained about Janet Reno—made it clear, in fact, that he felt alienated from his own attorney +general. If he removed her, however, the pending decision on yet another special prosecutor [for 1996 +campaign finance] would fall to Reno's deputy, Jamie Gorelick, who, Clinton feared, may share Reno's +wholesale devotion to outside control for any case in which the president himself may become a +target...If he removed both Reno and Gorelick, to start fresh, it would touch off a firestorm of protest +like Nixon's Saturday Night Massacre of the Justice Department officials during the Watergate scandal. +That was not an option."" [Branch, 388-389] +> Branch writes about WJC talking about Reno and Louis Freeh disregarding a letter from D'Amato and +continuing to allow independent counsel to go after Ciseneros. The same held true for Mike Espy. +Branch then outlines a meeting between WJC and Reno. Reno had made public statements about her +""desire to stay on the job. 'I told her I didn't like that one damn bit,' the president said tersely. 'I didn't +hire her to work for the New York Times and Washington Post. I hired her to work for me.'"" [Branch, +398] He continues to outline that Clinton did give Reno credit for some good achievements including +coordination with U.S. attorneys and that he didn't blame her for the special prosecutor on Whitewater, +but that ""he did blame her for abdicating responsibility to supervise the investigations ever since, letting +mandates multiply almost at will. She accepted criteria that were ludicrous and crassly partisan. Reno +had failed to defend the presidency itself—not Clinton personally, but the institution—and by extension +the entire executive branch...He told me she had no clue what he meant. His advisers considered her +more naïve than upright, and the fuzziness of the distinction seemed to save her."" [Branch, 399] He cites +that Clinton warned her that she should prepare herself for not staying in the job for the entire second +term. +Portrayal of Jimmy Carter +There are parallels that could be drawn between WJC/BHO and Carter/WJC both in terms of Carter's trip to +North Korea and the mission he went on to Haiti. WJC clearly was frustrated by Carter's seeming desire to be +on the front lines. +North Korea: +➢ ""On North Korea, he [WJC] said Jimmy Carter had initiated his own recent trip with a call to Al Gore, +and Clinton had approved the volunteer mission to break through North Korea's extreme +isolation... Sure enough, Carter did reach North Korean dictator Kim Il-sung, who proposed to allow +inspection of North Korea's nuclear facilities in exchange for relief from the harsh economic sanctions. +The only hitch was that Carter announced the terms on CNN before they became official, adding +gratuitously that he never had agreed with sanctions in the first place. News stories had the White House +seething, but Clinton made light of the spat. He said the deal was since ratified by an exchange of letters, +and he did not believe Carter would criticize official policy 'if the game were still in doubt.' [Branch, +162] +Haiti: +➢ After pushing to be sent to Haiti and enlisting Colin Powell and Sam Nunn to get WJC to break with +Gore (who said Carter shouldn't be trusted a second time) and Christopher and approve the mission to +Haiti to seek a truce with the junta, Carter is portrayed as acting stubbornly and having 'clientitis' +(arguing for acceptance of Haitian generals versus what was in the United States' best interest). He +didn't want to leave and WJC told him he had to. Like after North Korea, Carter again, Carter went to +the press first. ""The three negotiators flew back to Washington late Sunday, and Carter, invited to stay +over at the White House, called CNN's Judy Woodruff after midnight to arrange an interview the next +morning before he reported to Clinton on his mission. This conduct, the president said tersely, was not +right...The press was full of retrospective stories about friction between him and his three prominent +negotiators...He said the current newsweeklies lapped up criticism by Carter as an embarrassment to +Clinton...Many of his advisers griped that Jimmy Carter thought he was still president, but Clinton +found this criticism too jaundiced. Carter had spoken with restraint at their joint press conference, he +allowed, exhibiting a keen political ear...To Clinton, Carter simply felt that he had earned the right to +speak his mind as an international statesman, even about a mission he had accepted for the United States +government complete with an Air Force jet. This sense of entitlement could make Carter a thorn, but +Clinton thought his value far outweighed the political annoyance. He considered Carter a sterling ex- +resident."" [Branch, 200-201] +Dispatch of Bombers Near Iraq +➢ ""He expected military strikes to win bipartisan assent, including former presidents Ford, Reagan and +Bush. 'Dole will support me,' he said. 'Carter will probably criticize me. Carter always criticizes, but he +doesn't have much positive to say."" [Branch, 518] +Gore +For the majority of the book, there is little discussion of WJC and Gore's relationship. There are few places +where he is briefly mentioned and a couple of scenes with some levity. The end, however, describes the +seemingly brutally candid conversation between the two about the 2000 election and the impeachment. +➢ On page 92 Branch writes, ""No, he [Clinton] did not ask Gore to take over a failed foreign policy, as +alleged, but to improve public presentations by his troika of 'bad talkers': shy National Security Adviser +Tony Lake, boring Secretary of State Warren Christopher, and disorganized Defense Secretary Les +Aspin."" [Branch, 92] +➢ In one-passage WJC talks about asking Gore to lead the independent review of Hazel O'Leary and also +having Gore substitute for him at an economic conference in Japan. The latter did not fare well as other +nations were offended that Gore, not WJC attended. Gore insisted that WJC needed to go to Japan to +redeem himself and the administration for his absence. Gore pointed to a few days in January, but WJC +""pronounced them vital to Chelsea's schoolwork. Gore blinked. So what?...Mutual exasperation spiked. +`Al,' Clinton told him, 'I am not going to Japan and leave Chelsea by herself to take these exams.' Gore +erupted. He thought Clinton had lost his bearing. They had a big fight, said the president, and were still +wrangling about dates for Japan."" Branch states that this fight wound up being around the time WJC saw +Lewinsky. [Branch, 316-317] +➢ On page 396-397 there is a scene, which shows Gore's sense of humor and Gore, WJC, et al working as +a team to secure the Cabinet for the second term. +➢ Later there is a passage about an exchange between WJC and HRC about Gore trying to hire a second +criminal lawyer. HRC already knew he was paying the first one $30,000 per month. The conversation is +about a leak of an offer from Jim Neal of TN, the former Watergate prosecutor to defend Gore for free. +The exchange is more on ethics of the offer and its leak to the press than about Gore. +➢ On Gore's announcing his campaign. ""The president had called twice to congratulate Gore for his +kickoff events—once from Geneva, hours later from Paris. Clinton thought the only glitches were +technical... But Gore got all the big things right. His twofold message was perfect: distinguish himself +from Clinton's personal flaws, and tell voters exactly what he would do for them in the White House. +The president said it was fine for Gore to call Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky 'inexcusable.' +First, it was true. Second, it showed a necessary strength to criticized the boss. Third, Gore would be +badgered to death until he did. 'Al,' Clinton told him, 'if you thought it would help in the campaign, I +would let you flog me at noon right on the doorstep of the Washington Post.'"" [Branch, 553-554] +Branch continues that WJC told Gore to ignore reporting that he was offended or critical of his +campaign. ""On tape, the president said he confided his chief strategic worry only to Gore himself and to +Gore's pollster, Mark Penn. The vice president must project his platform—where he stood, precisely +how and where he would lead the country—because the Republicans would try to knock him off +substance."" [Branch, 554] +➢ WJC offered critiques of Gore's campaign throughout, but it was always framed as his fear of Gore not +succeeding him. For example, ""Clinton still thought Gore could win. Most people considered him smart, +experience, and motivated. He examined the pitfalls for Gore in a campaign showcasing presidential +character over detailed agendas for the country. Reporters called Gore ""stiff,"" but Clinton discounted +this liability. He thought Gore's droll sense of humor would wear well over time. Gore also was +perceived to be too conventional a Democrat, therefore lacking independence, which called for Gore to +emphasize more his own passion and initiatives. Then the president said Gore could have a brooding +quality about him, not worrisome or off-putting in itself, but potentially damaging if his serious nature +failed to give voters a lifted. Clinton isolated the word ""sunny."" Gore needed more of it."" [Branch, 599] +➢ He also complimented Gore's knowledge of government workings. ""Gore knew Washington. Believe +me, said the president, his administration would have made many more errors in the first two years had +it not been for the vice president."" He then goes on to say that WJC suggested Gore find someone who +would be a bright spot to run with, perhaps Durbin or Bradley or Kerrey, although he also goes into +great detail about the virtues of Mikulski, even though she would never get chosen. How much of this +was WJC's emphasis versus Branch's focus on his home state senator is unclear. [Branch, 599, 618-19] +➢ WJC criticized Gore for not running on the successes of the administration. ""They should be running +essentially for a third term, said the president, but they were afraid the Clinton-Gore record would +tarnish them with Clinton's character."" [Branch, 623] Branch gives WJC's critique of Gore in debate +that had been heard before—that Gore lacked style and a light touch. +➢ Branch has WJC recalling a conversation between WJC and Gore where ""Gore had bared himself in one +of their stressful consultations by insisting that he, Gore, was a good politician, elaborating that he +meant good on the policy, and also good on the politics, but admitted that he did not instinctively blend +the two. Gore said he had to think about it, and Clinton thought this was pretty close to the bone...He +had the stuff to be a great president, and this was the message that Clinton must convey somehow +without seeming to brag on his own record."" [Branch, 623-624] +➢ The big passage about Gore begins on page 641 and extends to 645. Branch notes that WJC was unsure +at first about recording the details. At the outset it says, ""For his own part, Gore was not angry, nor did +he blame Clinton for his defeat, but he wanted to acknowledge forthrightly that some people around him +did."" [Branch, 642] It has WJC acknowledging that Gore's use of him was proper—he was best in the +White House. Then he says, ""'I think you made a mistake not to use me more in the last ten days,'"" +Clinton told Gore, 'but otherwise that was not a big deal. I was much more upset about your message, +now that we're being honest.'"" [Branch, 642] Branch recalls WJC saying Gore fought bag saying that +""Clinton's drag plagued every direction."" Clinton then said that Gore was better at governance than +Clinton, and Gore would be better for the nation than Bush, and that he was an ""unparalleled"" vice +president, but that he had ""blind spots."" Branch writes that WJC kept saying their confrontation was +""surreal."" +o Gore had a ""fresh grievance...he wanted Clinton to know that the Buddhist temple fund-raising +scandal had been the worst experience of his life. No one had ever questioned his personal +integrity, but corrosive publicity and whispers had tormented him now for four years. Gore said +he had not been disposed to blame Clinton. However, he remembered telling the president that +he found himself the only English-speaking person at one of those Asian fund-raisers. And the +president was in charge of the party apparatus that was supposed to screen all the donations for +trouble. So he did blame Clinton in a way. The president told me he could scarcely believe the +ensuing tales of suspicion. Gore must still be in shock from the election, or unhinged. 'I thought +he was in Neverland,' he said."" [Branch, 643-644] +o Branch continues: ""The vice president asked Clinton about Monica Lewinsky. He had supported +Clinton all through the impeachment, publicly and privately, while declaring himself +disappointed. Yes, said the president. He appreciated that. However, persisted Gore, Clinton did +not confide any personal feelings. He never explained exactly what happened. There was little to +say, Clinton replied, beyond failure and regret. He was humiliated and angry, had made mistake. +He had misled the American people, and he was sorry. Gore closed his point with emphasis. +Well, he said, this is the first time you have apologized to me personally. Clinton did a double +take...Gore treated the confession as a watershed. Their colliding perspectives made both of +them angry. Clinton exploded that Gore's reaction was phony. What was so significant +here?...Gore exploded back. He was feeling a stubborn repeat of the defensiveness and delayed +honesty that somehow cost the election. Clinton's character was at the root of it..."" [Branch, +644-45] +Other +➢ Maggie as Person Recommending Panetta: Unlike in My Life, in Branch's book, it has WJC asking +Maggie to compile confidential suggestions for McLarty's replacement. ""Williams was shrewd, discreet, +and efficient."" [Branch, 161] +> HRC and Haiti Invasion: Branch asked WJC what HRC thought about his foreign policy team's +suggestion to invade Haiti. ""He said the pell-mell rush to invade was crazy to her. Reacting against the +pressure, the lack of options, and his sense of being trapped, she said he was badly served by his foreign +policy staff. He said she observed with some suspicion that the chief sponsors of the invasion—Lake, +Berger, and Talbott—were the same people who had pushed the ill-fated appointment of Bobby Ray +Inman as defense secretary."" [Branch, 189] +> ITAV: ITAV co-author flap in which Sally Quinn spread rumors that HRC had not written the book. +Quinn said that HRC had denied credit to the book's collaborator, Barbara Feinman, a friend of Quinn. +HRC said Feinman had withdrawn from the project. Branch notes that the White House had draft +chapters in HRC's handwriting. (Branch turned this to be about him and how it affected him as a +ghostwriter.) From this HRC said that Quinn and her friends launched a rumor that HRC and a female +veterinarian of Socks' were ""discovered...in flagrante on a bedroom floor in the White House."" [Branch, +342-343] +> Subpoenas of CVC's Friends: Branch tells of how D'Amato, as Chair of the Banking Committee, had +subpoenaed all those who might have been in the White House when HRC's Rose firm records were +there. This included ""some two dozen of Chelsea's sleepovers."" Senator Sarbanes quashed the +subpoenas for the sleepovers. [Branch, 362] +➢ Vernon Jordan Extramarital Sex: In the context of Lewinsky, Branch says of Vernon Jordan, ""In our +glancing associations, I had picked up from Vernon an attitude toward extramarital sex best described as +lighthearted or recreational."" [Branch, 495] +> Gore/HRC ticket: ""By the numbers, and Clinton's gut, a Gore-Hillary ticket would give Democrats their +best chance to defeat Bush for the White House. 'Hands down,' he [WJC] said, tut I don't think Al +would ever do it.'"" [Branch, 540] +> WJC suggesting Rubin run for NY Senate seat: The passage comes after WJC talks about supporting +HRC if she decided to run, which raises a question of whether he had preferred Rubin or whether the +two events are unconnected. ""When the president had urged him [Rubin] to run for and easily win the +New York Senate seat, Rubin recoiled...He could not fathom why Hillary wanted to run now..."" +[Branch, 557] +➢ On trip to South Asia: Branch says that WJC agreed to cancel a stop in Bangladesh, because ""of hard +intelligence that Osama bin Laden had lined the route with assassins."" [Branch, 594] My Life discusses +the cancelled trip but does not specify it was because of bin Laden or assassins. +DI 'Gephardt is an asshole,"" Hillary commented. The president, pointing to my recorders, advised gently that the tapes were on. She +winced but shrugged with a smile. ""Well, he is,"" she insisted. In an awkward silence, I backed up both machines to erase the first +lady's epithet."" [Branch, 263]","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: Cheryl Mills < +Sent: Wednesday, September 9, 2009 9:23 PM +To: +Subject: Branch Summary +See below. Will send PIR comments shortly. +To: CDM +Fr: Caitlin +Re: Branch Book +Overview: +There are few surprises in this book. The ""surprises"" that might exist are buried and took a close reading to pick +up on—the two main ones are about the terror clause of WJC's crime bill and why he hadn't disclosed +information about Lewinsky (because he hadn't wanted to become a witness against her). There are a lot of +things that have been covered in My Life and other publications. Quite honestly the book was pretty boring and +much more focused on Branch than I had anticipated. While not as ""and this day, and the next day"" as My Life, +it does share many of the same elements that would engage only a true Clinton fanatic or historian. The fact that +there appears to be no index also makes it difficult for anyone looking for a quick hit to get one. Furthermore, +WJC's words are so interlaced with Branch's recollection through his dictations, that the number of direct WJC +quotes was far fewer than I had expected. +HRC was not as much of a player as one might imagine. Her role is largely seen through her interactions with +Branch when he is recording WJC. Her statements were consistent with the past, with the exception of the +Gephardt comment, and didn't grab much attention at all.Ell (Others included HRC's devotion to CVC, thought +that there should not be a special prosecutor and images of her returning from meetings. They were pretty much +aligned with her interactions with Branch.) Surprisingly, or not surprisingly, many of the problems discussed in +the book are those, which face the current Administration—Middle East peace, North Korea, China, etc... +Branch repeatedly injects his feelings on specific subjects and seems to use the book to voice his own opinion +of the Administration and events of the time. He clearly has topics he prefers over others (for example his +connection with the events in Haiti result in a lot of discussion about it), but there are some subjects that are +strikingly sparsely discussed such as Rwanda. Its absence from long discussions was surprising, but it did not +appear as thought WJC ever-dodged questions about the topic, they just weren't addressed. Much like My Life, +one theme that repeated itself was WJC's conflict with and disdain for the media, especially long passages +about NYT and Washington Post. There are a few instances where gives them credit on their reporting, but you +would be hard-pressed to find them. Additionally, there are numerous mentions of WJC's acute allergies and his +chronic fatigue, with imagery of him falling asleep in sessions on more than a couple occasions. +The book has quite a bit on Whitewater, but given the dearth of public documentation there is little that Branch +could write that hadn't been said. One thing I had not recalled was the D'Amato's subpoena of CVC's friends, +later quashed, who slept over while HRC's Rose Law Firm records were in the White House. Branch does +portray a helpful distinction in how WJC looked at Whitewater and other scandals. While WJC attacks +Whitewater as a political hunt, Branch does have him WJC saying that Filegate needed to be separated from +Whitewater, because this was a legitimate inquiry. There are some quips that could catch someone's eye, such +as WJC referring to Paula Jones as ""a 'new bimbo' he [WJC] didn't even recognize."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 +Branch does not dwell on Lewinsky or the impeachment. With the exception of Bruce, Bennett and Kendall, no +other lawyers are mentioned. There is one passage that I am looking into, in which WJC says part of the reason +he didn't mention his relationship with Lewinsky at first was because she was being threatened with jail time if +she was found to be lying under oath and had he told the truth he could become a witness against her. This is a +very small passage that could easily be missed, but one that it is important to note as I don't recall hearing this +before. (This is addressed more fully below.) +There are a few relationships that track through the book more than others. They include WJC's relationship +with Gore, which maps in part because it is not a focal point until the end, and his contentious relationship with +Janet Reno. The one Senator that appears to be most discussed negatively is Moynihan. All three of these issues +are discussed in turn below. WJC is portrayed as an extremely loving and attentive father and HRC is portrayed +in a much more human light than other books/articles covering this time period, with ample mention of her +relationship with CVC and images of affection between her and WJC, both pre- and post-impeachment. +On foreign relations there is a lot of time spent discussing the Middle East, Northern Ireland, the Balkans, +China, Russia, Pakistan/India and in the beginning of the book, Haiti. (Note: Much of what is written about +Haiti is about Branch's own experience there and on the subject.) There is also a fair amount of discussion +about North Korea, but nothing that has not been discussed in the past few weeks. Bin Laden is discussed in +what seems to track mention of him in My Life, which seems to have more detail and background than this +book. +In certain cases there is more detail here than in My Life, for example on his trip to Pakistan WJC wrote that the +USSS cancelled one stop because they would be ""defenseless"" flying in, whereas Brach writes that the streets +would be lined with ""assassins."" There are candid looks at WJC's take on certain people and the relationship +between some, such as Albright and Berger's dislike of Holbrooke, and a more detailed depiction of Yeltsin's +drinking, such as yelling outside of Blair House for a cab to get pizza. +One thing to note, is that often times WJC seems to be speaking to Branch intentionally without the recorders +going, but Branch writes about those interactions and exchanges nonetheless. Such is the case with HRC's +Gephardt comment. +The following items are addressed in the memo: +Wen Ho Lee and Terror Clause of Crime Bill 4 +WJC and Lewinsky's Silence 4 +HRC and Kissinger 4 +HRC and gay/lesbian 5 +Tension with Moynihan 5 +HRC as World Player 5 +Jesse Jackson 6 +Tension with Janet Reno 6 +Portrayal of Carter 7 +Relationship with Gore 8 +Other (This includes: Maggie recommending Panetta, HRC and Haiti Invasion, ITAV co-author flap, +Subpoenas of CVC's Friends, Vernon Jordan on Extramarital Sex, Gore/HRC ticket, WJC suggesting Rubin run +for Senate, Trip to South Asia) 11 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 +Wen Ho Lee and Terror Clause of Crime Bill +In discussing Wen Ho Lee's release Branch characterizes WJC's lack of knowledge about the strained +interpretation of the anti-terrorist provisions in the crime bill and arbitrary detentions as a ""confession."" My Life +only mentions Lee's accusation in passing and does not again discuss Lee. Below are two passages from +Branch's book the first giving context and the second about the Terror Clause of the Crime Bill. +➢ The year closed on spies and terrorism. The Justice Department, after fierce debate among the security +agencies, indicted nuclear scientist Wen Ho Lee on fifty-nine counts of copying classified material to his +personal computer. Lee was being handled like a radioactive espionage defendant—no bail, lockdown, +solitary confinement—even though the long dragnet had produced no evidence that he offered secrets to +China or anyone else. The president said experts were telling him the worst spies sometimes stored their +treason for a rainy day. This sounded fishy to me. Clinton shrugged. Nothing would please him more +than to establish Lee's innocence. [Branch, 577] +➢ While Lee was indicted, Branch writes that WJC noted that others ""were being held in secret, uncharged +and untried...He [WJC] was embarrassed not to have sponsored this measure into law without +foreseeing such arbitrary detentions...Under the terrorist act, any prosecutor should decide within the +legal limit...whether to bring charges on the testimony of a secret informant or otherwise. To his +dismay, Clinton had learned of defendants held incommunicado for more than six months. One extreme +detention had last three years. 'I think it's wrong,' he [WJC] said. 'It's not American. We accept guilty +people on the street to enjoy and protect our freedom.' [Branch, 629] +WJC and Lewinsky's Silence +Branch writes that part of WJC's motive for not discussing what had happened with Lewinsky was that it could +send her to jail, as she had denied it. +➢ ""Also, he pointed out that Starr had been threatening to jail Lewinsky all year over her sworn denial of +the affair. If Clinton had come forward with anything at all about their relationship, he said Starr could +have turned him into a witness against Lewinsky, betraying her discreet silence. Such subtleties, while +original, struck me as tendentious. The president never claimed chivalry as the real motive for his +steadfast denial, nor did he dispute the essential truth of Lewinsky's account."" [Branch, 511] +HRC and Kissinger +The following could be fodder for people who want to continue to string along the notion of channeling Eleanor +Roosevelt. +➢ There is a passage in which HRC describes an exchange she had with Kissinger at a dinner where he +complained that if the health care bill passed he wouldn't be able to see his own doctor. She continued to +say ""it was interesting, in fact, that she had dreamed about Kissinger only a few nights before. His +visage turned suddenly effervescent at a banquet, announcing gladly that his worries were over because +the Clinton health care bill was dying. 'Oh, no, Dr. Kissinger,' she replied coolly. 'Don't be sure that it's +dead. We'll keep fighting, and there's always light at the end of the tunnel.' She said Kissing blanched, +speechless at her deft reminder of the Vietnam War...Now at last, in Hillary's dream, it registered that +his strategic designs had spewed carnage and venom for seven needless years...'That's what I dreamed,' +Hillary repeated, lost in thought. 'You know, I always get my revenge in dreams, but never in real life.' +[Branch, 179] +HRC and gay/lesbian +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 +Writing about a call with HRC from NYS, Branch recalls how WJC's counsel got very ""exercised."" WJC left +the room. ""He was subdued on his return. 'You know, I've had a lot more contact with gay people in my life +than Hillary.' He sighed. Her temperament had a conservative, religious core, formed before homosexual issues +were even mentionable. New York politics was a tough crucible, and she was unsure what heat she could take. +On the other hand, personal experience could speed adaptation."" [Branch, 551] +Tension with Moynihan +There are several occasions throughout the book that Branch recalls WJC's grievances and frustration with +Moynihan. For example: +> When Moynihan called for the international arms embargo to be unilaterally lifted so that Bosnia could +fight for themselves, Branch writes, ""The president flinched when I mentioned [it]...'That's just a +freebie for him,' snapped Clinton, 'and he knows it.'"" [p.140] +> In regard to health care: ""Echoing comments by Hillary at dinner, he [WJC] faulted Senator Moynihan +for aimless hearings conducted without a strategy or theme."" [p.170] +➢ Discussing Independent Counsel: ""She [HRC] was especially scornful of the Democrats, and quoted a +number of them. Senator Moynihan, for instance, publicly said the Clintons were nice people and he was +sure they had nothing to hide. 'Why not have an investigation?' he often asked. She said Moynihan +skated blithely on the surface, never produced results in Congress, and could not withstand such scrutiny +himself for five minutes, living in an apartment secured through his chairmanship of the Pennsylvania +Avenue Development Corporation."" [Brach, 182] +➢ ""Donnybrook"" argument in which Moynihan said of a fundraising speech WJC gave citing a regretted +hypothetical about a controversial decision. Moynihan told the press, ""He doesn't understand...that he's +conceding the principles."" WJC confronted him about lack of context given to the statement to the press +and said that Moynihan knew what he was doing by ""feeding the beast of hostile presumption about +Clinton's motives."" [Branch, 299] +HRC as World Player +There are several images as HRC as a player on the world stage, both with WJC and on her own. Several +examples follow: +➢ Middle East: Discussing peace with King Hussein: ""They had retreated for lunch as two couples—the +Clintons, with the king and his wife, Queen Noor—in the family dining room... Their agenda was a +delicate race between Hussein's failing health and his desire to make peace with Israel. The president +said he and Hillary pounded away on symptoms of national estrangement: closed boarders, water +disputes, travel barriers, war grievances, contested airspace, sealed electrical grids, and so on. Hussein +gave them a feast of goodwill without commitment on any point."" [Branch, 170] +> South Asia: Regarding her trip to South Asia with CVC in 1995, ""Her [HRC's] schedule was far more +demanding than ceremonial, pushing both conflict resolution and civic empowerment for downtrodden +women."" [Branch, 236] Later Branch tells of Benazir Bhutto praising CVC and HRC. ""By contrast with +a superficial American press, which portrayed Hillary as a demure tourist of no policy significance in +exotic Asia, Bhutto said she had touched essential political chords with whirlwind encouragements for +citizenship groups and small-scale economic development."" (The note contrasting Bhutto corresponds to +a NYT article which Branch quotes in the footer saying, ""she [HRC] played the traditional role of First +Lady as wife and mother..."") [Branch, 246] +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 +> China Speech: Branch outlines how HRC felt the speech needed to be bigger than China and how she +depicted the ""harsh reality everywhere"" from China to Africa. He then cites WJC commenting on the +rave reviews of HRC's speech. [Branch, 289] +➢ Regarding the Russian financial system meltdown, Branch writes ""Yeltsin seemed so removed from +urgent political tasks that both Clintons counseled him directly."" [Branch, 512-513] +Jesse Jackson +Branch writes about Jesse Jackson calling CVC after the Lewinsky story broke and having continued contact +with her throughout the period. WJC thanks him for his support of CVC. This goes into some detail about WJCs +gratitude, but the fact that Jackson ""counseled"" CVC has been public knowledge dating back to at least 1999. +➢ ""But now Jesse had done something he would not forget. When the Lewinsky news broke, he called +Chelsea at Stanford. Jesse was the only nonfamily adult with her cell phone number. How he got it was +another story. Jesse said he knew this was terrible for her. Nothing like it had ever happened in +American politics. He did not know everything involved, but he wanted to remind Chelsea how much +her parents loved her. Their family needed to stick together now above all, and if she needed to counsel, +rage, or pray, he was always available."" [Branch, 497] +Tension with Janet Reno +Throughout the book, from his nomination of her, WJC is portrayed as having no opinion to having a negative +opinion of Janet Reno. +> ""He complained about Janet Reno—made it clear, in fact, that he felt alienated from his own attorney +general. If he removed her, however, the pending decision on yet another special prosecutor [for 1996 +campaign finance] would fall to Reno's deputy, Jamie Gorelick, who, Clinton feared, may share Reno's +wholesale devotion to outside control for any case in which the president himself may become a +target...If he removed both Reno and Gorelick, to start fresh, it would touch off a firestorm of protest +like Nixon's Saturday Night Massacre of the Justice Department officials during the Watergate scandal. +That was not an option."" [Branch, 388-389] +> Branch writes about WJC talking about Reno and Louis Freeh disregarding a letter from D'Amato and +continuing to allow independent counsel to go after Ciseneros. The same held true for Mike Espy. +Branch then outlines a meeting between WJC and Reno. Reno had made public statements about her +""desire to stay on the job. 'I told her I didn't like that one damn bit,' the president said tersely. 'I didn't +hire her to work for the New York Times and Washington Post. I hired her to work for me.'"" [Branch, +398] He continues to outline that Clinton did give Reno credit for some good achievements including +coordination with U.S. attorneys and that he didn't blame her for the special prosecutor on Whitewater, +but that ""he did blame her for abdicating responsibility to supervise the investigations ever since, letting +mandates multiply almost at will. She accepted criteria that were ludicrous and crassly partisan. Reno +had failed to defend the presidency itself—not Clinton personally, but the institution—and by extension +the entire executive branch...He told me she had no clue what he meant. His advisers considered her +more naïve than upright, and the fuzziness of the distinction seemed to save her."" [Branch, 399] He cites +that Clinton warned her that she should prepare herself for not staying in the job for the entire second +term. +Portrayal of Jimmy Carter +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 +There are parallels that could be drawn between WJC/BHO and Carter/WJC both in terms of Carter's trip to +North Korea and the mission he went on to Haiti. WJC clearly was frustrated by Carter's seeming desire to be +on the front lines. +North Korea: +➢ ""On North Korea, he [WJC] said Jimmy Carter had initiated his own recent trip with a call to Al Gore, +and Clinton had approved the volunteer mission to break through North Korea's extreme +isolation... Sure enough, Carter did reach North Korean dictator Kim Il-sung, who proposed to allow +inspection of North Korea's nuclear facilities in exchange for relief from the harsh economic sanctions. +The only hitch was that Carter announced the terms on CNN before they became official, adding +gratuitously that he never had agreed with sanctions in the first place. News stories had the White House +seething, but Clinton made light of the spat. He said the deal was since ratified by an exchange of letters, +and he did not believe Carter would criticize official policy 'if the game were still in doubt.' [Branch, +162] +Haiti: +➢ After pushing to be sent to Haiti and enlisting Colin Powell and Sam Nunn to get WJC to break with +Gore (who said Carter shouldn't be trusted a second time) and Christopher and approve the mission to +Haiti to seek a truce with the junta, Carter is portrayed as acting stubbornly and having 'clientitis' +(arguing for acceptance of Haitian generals versus what was in the United States' best interest). He +didn't want to leave and WJC told him he had to. Like after North Korea, Carter again, Carter went to +the press first. ""The three negotiators flew back to Washington late Sunday, and Carter, invited to stay +over at the White House, called CNN's Judy Woodruff after midnight to arrange an interview the next +morning before he reported to Clinton on his mission. This conduct, the president said tersely, was not +right...The press was full of retrospective stories about friction between him and his three prominent +negotiators...He said the current newsweeklies lapped up criticism by Carter as an embarrassment to +Clinton...Many of his advisers griped that Jimmy Carter thought he was still president, but Clinton +found this criticism too jaundiced. Carter had spoken with restraint at their joint press conference, he +allowed, exhibiting a keen political ear...To Clinton, Carter simply felt that he had earned the right to +speak his mind as an international statesman, even about a mission he had accepted for the United States +government complete with an Air Force jet. This sense of entitlement could make Carter a thorn, but +Clinton thought his value far outweighed the political annoyance. He considered Carter a sterling ex- +resident."" [Branch, 200-201] +Dispatch of Bombers Near Iraq +➢ ""He expected military strikes to win bipartisan assent, including former presidents Ford, Reagan and +Bush. 'Dole will support me,' he said. 'Carter will probably criticize me. Carter always criticizes, but he +doesn't have much positive to say."" [Branch, 518] +Gore +For the majority of the book, there is little discussion of WJC and Gore's relationship. There are few places +where he is briefly mentioned and a couple of scenes with some levity. The end, however, describes the +seemingly brutally candid conversation between the two about the 2000 election and the impeachment. +➢ On page 92 Branch writes, ""No, he [Clinton] did not ask Gore to take over a failed foreign policy, as +alleged, but to improve public presentations by his troika of 'bad talkers': shy National Security Adviser +Tony Lake, boring Secretary of State Warren Christopher, and disorganized Defense Secretary Les +Aspin."" [Branch, 92] +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 +➢ In one-passage WJC talks about asking Gore to lead the independent review of Hazel O'Leary and also +having Gore substitute for him at an economic conference in Japan. The latter did not fare well as other +nations were offended that Gore, not WJC attended. Gore insisted that WJC needed to go to Japan to +redeem himself and the administration for his absence. Gore pointed to a few days in January, but WJC +""pronounced them vital to Chelsea's schoolwork. Gore blinked. So what?...Mutual exasperation spiked. +`Al,' Clinton told him, 'I am not going to Japan and leave Chelsea by herself to take these exams.' Gore +erupted. He thought Clinton had lost his bearing. They had a big fight, said the president, and were still +wrangling about dates for Japan."" Branch states that this fight wound up being around the time WJC saw +Lewinsky. [Branch, 316-317] +➢ On page 396-397 there is a scene, which shows Gore's sense of humor and Gore, WJC, et al working as +a team to secure the Cabinet for the second term. +➢ Later there is a passage about an exchange between WJC and HRC about Gore trying to hire a second +criminal lawyer. HRC already knew he was paying the first one $30,000 per month. The conversation is +about a leak of an offer from Jim Neal of TN, the former Watergate prosecutor to defend Gore for free. +The exchange is more on ethics of the offer and its leak to the press than about Gore. +➢ On Gore's announcing his campaign. ""The president had called twice to congratulate Gore for his +kickoff events—once from Geneva, hours later from Paris. Clinton thought the only glitches were +technical... But Gore got all the big things right. His twofold message was perfect: distinguish himself +from Clinton's personal flaws, and tell voters exactly what he would do for them in the White House. +The president said it was fine for Gore to call Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky 'inexcusable.' +First, it was true. Second, it showed a necessary strength to criticized the boss. Third, Gore would be +badgered to death until he did. 'Al,' Clinton told him, 'if you thought it would help in the campaign, I +would let you flog me at noon right on the doorstep of the Washington Post.'"" [Branch, 553-554] +Branch continues that WJC told Gore to ignore reporting that he was offended or critical of his +campaign. ""On tape, the president said he confided his chief strategic worry only to Gore himself and to +Gore's pollster, Mark Penn. The vice president must project his platform—where he stood, precisely +how and where he would lead the country—because the Republicans would try to knock him off +substance."" [Branch, 554] +➢ WJC offered critiques of Gore's campaign throughout, but it was always framed as his fear of Gore not +succeeding him. For example, ""Clinton still thought Gore could win. Most people considered him smart, +experience, and motivated. He examined the pitfalls for Gore in a campaign showcasing presidential +character over detailed agendas for the country. Reporters called Gore ""stiff,"" but Clinton discounted +this liability. He thought Gore's droll sense of humor would wear well over time. Gore also was +perceived to be too conventional a Democrat, therefore lacking independence, which called for Gore to +emphasize more his own passion and initiatives. Then the president said Gore could have a brooding +quality about him, not worrisome or off-putting in itself, but potentially damaging if his serious nature +failed to give voters a lifted. Clinton isolated the word ""sunny."" Gore needed more of it."" [Branch, 599] +➢ He also complimented Gore's knowledge of government workings. ""Gore knew Washington. Believe +me, said the president, his administration would have made many more errors in the first two years had +it not been for the vice president."" He then goes on to say that WJC suggested Gore find someone who +would be a bright spot to run with, perhaps Durbin or Bradley or Kerrey, although he also goes into +great detail about the virtues of Mikulski, even though she would never get chosen. How much of this +was WJC's emphasis versus Branch's focus on his home state senator is unclear. [Branch, 599, 618-19] +➢ WJC criticized Gore for not running on the successes of the administration. ""They should be running +essentially for a third term, said the president, but they were afraid the Clinton-Gore record would +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05764995 Date: 07/31/2015 +tarnish them with Clinton's character."" [Branch, 623] Branch gives WJC's critique of Gore in debate +that had been heard before—that Gore lacked style and a light touch. +➢ Branch has WJC recalling a conversation between WJC and Gore where ""Gore had bared himself in one +of their stressful consultations by insisting that he, Gore, was a good politician, elaborating that he +meant good on the policy, and also good on the politics, but admitted that he did not instinctively blend +the two. Gore said he had to think about it, and Clinton thought this was pretty close to the bone...He +had the stuff to be a great president, and this was the message that Clinton must convey somehow +without seeming to brag on his own record."" [Branch, 623-624] +➢ The big passage about Gore begins on page 641 and extends to 645. Branch notes that WJC was unsure +at first about recording the details. At the outset it says, ""For his own part, Gore was not angry, nor did +he blame Clinton for his defeat, but he wanted to acknowledge forthrightly that some people around him +did."" [Branch, 642] It has WJC acknowledging that Gore's use of him was proper—he was best in the +White House. Then he says, ""'I think you made a mistake not to use me more in the last ten days,'"" +Clinton told Gore, 'but otherwise that was not a big deal. I was much more upset about your message, +now that we're being honest.'"" [Branch, 642] Branch recalls WJC saying Gore fought bag saying that +""Clinton's drag plagued every direction."" Clinton then said that Gore was better at governance than +Clinton, and Gore would be better for the nation than Bush, and that he was an ""unparalleled"" vice +president, but that he had ""blind spots."" Branch writes that WJC kept saying their confrontation was +""surreal."" +o Gore had a ""fresh grievance...he wanted Clinton to know that the Buddhist temple fund-raising +scandal had been the worst experience of his life. No one had ever questioned his personal +integrity, but corrosive publicity and whispers had tormented him now for four years. Gore said +he had not been disposed to blame Clinton. However, he remembered telling the president that +he found himself the only English-speaking person at one of those Asian fund-raisers. And the +president was in charge of the party apparatus that was supposed to screen all the donations for +trouble. So he did blame Clinton in a way. The president told me he could scarcely believe the +ensuing tales of suspicion. Gore must still be in shock from the election, or unhinged. 'I thought +he was in Neverland,' he said."" [Branch, 643-644] +o Branch continues: ""The vice president asked Clinton about Monica Lewinsky. He had supported +Clinton all through the impeachment, publicly and privately, while declaring himself +disappointed. Yes, said the president. He appreciated that. However, persisted Gore, Clinton did +not confide any personal feelings. He never explained exactly what happened. There was little to +say, Clinton replied, beyond failure and regret. He was humiliated and angry, had made mistake. +He had misled the American people, and he was sorry. Gore closed his point with emphasis. +Well, he said, this is the first time you have apologized to me personally. Clinton did a double +take...Gore treated the confession as a watershed. Their colliding perspectives made both of +them angry. Clinton exploded that Gore's reaction was phony. What was so significant +here?...Gore exploded back. He was feeling a stubborn repeat of the defensiveness and delayed +honesty that somehow cost the election. Clinton's character was at the root of it..."" [Branch, +644-45] +Other +➢ Maggie as Person Recommending Panetta: Unlike in My Life, in Branch's book, it has WJC asking +Maggie to compile confidential suggestions for McLarty's replacement.

""He said the pell-mell rush to invade was crazy to her. Reacting against the +pressure, the lack of options, and his sense of being trapped, she said he was badly served by his foreign +policy staff. He said she observed with some suspicion that the chief sponsors of the invasion—Lake, +Berger, and Talbott—were the same people who had pushed the ill-fated appointment of Bobby Ray +Inman as defense secretary."" [Branch, 189] +> ITAV: ITAV co-author flap in which Sally Quinn spread rumors that HRC had not written the book. +Quinn said that HRC had denied credit to the book's collaborator, Barbara Feinman, a friend of Quinn. +HRC said Feinman had withdrawn from the project. Branch notes that the White House had draft +chapters in HRC's handwriting. (Branch turned this to be about him and how it affected him as a +ghostwriter.) From this HRC said that Quinn and her friends launched a rumor that HRC and a female +veterinarian of Socks' were ""discovered...in flagrante on a bedroom floor in the White House."" [Branch, +342-343] +> Subpoenas of CVC's Friends: Branch tells of how D'Amato, as Chair of the Banking Committee, had +subpoenaed all those who might have been in the White House when HRC's Rose firm records were +there. This included ""some two dozen of Chelsea's sleepovers."" Senator Sarbanes quashed the +subpoenas for the sleepovers. [Branch, 362] +➢ Vernon Jordan Extramarital Sex: In the context of Lewinsky, Branch says of Vernon Jordan, ""In our +glancing associations, I had picked up from Vernon an attitude toward extramarital sex best described as +lighthearted or recreational."" [Branch, 495] +> Gore/HRC ticket: ""By the numbers, and Clinton's gut, a Gore-Hillary ticket would give Democrats their +best chance to defeat Bush for the White House.

[Branch, 540] +> WJC suggesting Rubin run for NY Senate seat: The passage comes after WJC talks about supporting +HRC if she decided to run, which raises a question of whether he had preferred Rubin or whether the +two events are unconnected.

[Branch, 594] My Life discusses +the cancelled trip but does not specify it was because of bin Laden or assassins. +DI 'Gephardt is an asshole,"" Hillary commented.

The +play was Our Class, by the Polish playwright, Tadeusz Slobodzianek. +In a series of short ""chapters"" Slobodzianek followed a group of classmates in a small Polish village from 1925 to 2002. +Like the village, the class was half Catholic and half Jewish. In 1941, as the Germans replaced the Russians as the +occupiers, almost all the Jews of the area were murdered in a single day. Slobodzianek shows what led up to the +massacre and what happened afterwards. It is unbearable. +Though the village is not named in the play, it is based on real events that took place at Jedwabne on July 10, 1941. As +Poland's Institute of National Memory concluded in 2002, on that day 40-50 Jewish men were forced to parade around the +town singing songs, and were then led to a barn on the outskirts where, one by one, they were killed with knives, axes +and cleavers and then thrown in a pit. Then 300 or more women and children were led from the town square to the barn +and locked inside. Kerosene was poured over the roof and walls and set alight. The screams could be heard from two +kilometres away; no one survived. +In 2001 it was finally acknowledged what many people had known all along. The murderers hadn't been Germans, but +local Poles, as depicted in Our Class. Alexander Kwasniewski, then the Polish President, apologised to the dead Jews +and their survivors at a ceremony in Jedwabne ""in my own name, and in the name of those Poles whose conscience is +shattered by that crime"". +History matters. Few believe that as much as the Law and Justice party of Michel Kaminski, who leads the Tory-backed +group in the European Parliament. The party's leaders have demanded apologies from the Russians for the massacre of +21,000 Polish officers at Katyn in 1940 and their references to terrible Polish historical suffering have constituted a big +part, of their political appeal. +But despite his historical sensitivity Mr Kaminski, the MEP for the Jedwabne area, did not support the 2001 apology. He +opposed it vigorously, associating himself with the ""Committee to Defend the .Good Name of Jedwabne"". Among its +leading members were the local priest, Edward Orlowski, who — asked by journalists whether he would be attending the +ceremony at which the President apologised — said: ""These are all lies. it is not my business. Germans are responsible, +so why should we apologiSe?"" +Mr Kaminski developed a slightly different rationale. As he told an interviewer for a far-right newspaper, Our Poland, the +murders — which he abhorred — were the work of a few outcasts, and that he would only apologise if someone ""from the +Jewish side"" apologised for how ""the Jews"" behaved during the Soviet occupation from 1939 to 1941. Last month Mr +Kaminski (who had denied giving the interview) confirmed this position. ""If you are asking the Polish nation to apologise +for the crime made in Jedwabne,"" he said, ""you would require the whole Jewish nation to apologise for what some Jewish +communists did in Eastern Poland."" +It is this argument that so incenses me,•as it would anyone, I think, who had sat through Our Class. The idea of collective +Jewish Bolshevism was a major anti-Semitic trope before the war; it was a major element of self-justification after it. +Mr Kaminski denied the apology, denied the need for it, equated the massacre to ""Jewish actions"" and allied himself with +those who denied the massacre altogether, fulfilling the historian Pierre Vidal-Naquet's observation about patterns of +massacre denial: ""it never happened, it happened but was justified, they did it to themselves, they did it to us."" Mr +Kaminski's view was described as disgraceful by Mr Miiiband. Having read an enormous amount on Jedwabne in the last +few weeks, I think Mr Miliband is completely right — it is disgraceful. And as he might well demand of Mr Cameron: ""I +should apologise?"" +But more than that, I find myself amazed by how Mr Cameron ever came to be in the position of demanding that a foreign +secretary, descended from Polish Jews, should apologise for possibly offending the sensibilities of a foreign politician who +vehemently opposed there being an apology for the massacre of Polish Jews. I think of all the things that Mr Cameron has +got right in his leadership of the. Conservatve Party and my mental jaw drops at the sheer wrongness of it. +Now Tory columnists, bioggers and activists are devoting their time to nitpicking sophistry about the nature of collective +guilt, and to attacking non-existent ""smears"" that they say have been attached to the unlovely person of Mr Kaminski. +Why? +It is true, as embattled Conservatives have argued, that many of the grand European coalitions contain people whose +history is problematic. There are odds and sods in the big conservative grouping, the EPP, and in the socialist group. But +these personalities are far outweighed by the parties of the IVIerkels and Sarkozys. The Polish member of the EPP, for +example, is the ruling free-market, non-nationalist conservative party of Donald Tusk — almost certainly the party that Mr +Cameron would join if he were a Pole. The new Tory grouping, the European Conservatives and Reformists, by contrast, +is all about odds and sods whom a continental Cameron would certainly shun, bar one organisation — the British +Conservatives. +So why get yourself into a position where you have to explain that the Latvian SS wasn't so bad really, and that Mr +Kaminski has an understandable position on collective guilt? And the answer seems to be that Mr Cameron promised his +Europhobes in his leadership campaign back in 2005 that he would leave the ""federalist"" EPP, and that the logical +outcome of this move has been the weird alliance that he now finds himself defending. +Was it all necessary? No. Was it in Britain's interests? Absolutely not. is it in the interests of progressive Conservatism? +You must be joking. So has this happened because Mr Cameron doesn't really care enough about Europe to think +through the consequences of his own lightly given promises, or because he's just as much a Euro-nutter as those sects, +the Hannanites, the Cashists and the Redwoodians? +This is the kind of advice I loathe, but I'll say it anyway.

Despite +sending $2 million and 40 tons of arms and ammunition to the country's Transitional Federal Government +(TFG) earlier this year, now, the United States is withholding humanitarian aid until relief agencies agree to +comply with strict, game-stopping conditions. +The decision to abruptly halt assistance came following suspicions that U.S. aid might be ending up with +Somali ""terrorists."" The main worry is an al Qaeda-linked group called al-Shabab, the leading Islamic militant +group fighting against the feeble but internationally backed government. Al-Shabab controls most of south- +central Somalia, while the TFG controls only a few areas of the capital, Mogadishu. The south-central region is +home to 2.7 million of the 3.63 million Somalis in need of emergency assistance. So, reaching many of +Somalia's people with aid would likely entail operating on al-Shabab's turf and interacting with elements of the +group to facilitate logistics. +U.S. Treasury Department sanctions strictly prohibit any financial transactions or dealings with al-Shabab and +other Somali groups labeled as ""terrorists."" Yet clearly the concern is not absolute; the U.S. government seems +less concerned that the guns and ammo sent as military assistance, intended to prop up the fragile government +and keep control of a country brimming with violence, are allegedly being resold on the streets of Mogadishu. +The halt in humanitarian assistance will cripple the work of relief organizations and, as a consequence, hurt +their Somali beneficiaries. U.S. officials justifiably fear that they and their partners could be held responsible, +even prosecuted, for supporting terrorists if relief funds ended up in the hands of al-Shabab. At first, the U.S. +government reviewed the situation and ""delayed"" funding. Subsequently, Washington issued conditions with +which aid agencies must comply to legally operate in Somalia. But the conditions are so restrictive that it would +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765106 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765106 Date: 07/31/2015 +be virtually impossible for operating agencies to meet them. (To preserve the security of those groups on the +ground, specific conditions cannot be stated here.) . +The damage is not just temporary. The new, politically charged rules would destroy relief organizations' +neutrality in Somalia. Humanitarian aid derives its legitimacy from impartiality -- the notion that aid is +provisioned on need alone, rather than politics. In Somalia, where the U.S. government is often viewed +unfavorably, political impartiality is a practical consideration as well; it is central to the ability of relief agencies +to function safely and effectively. The new U.S. conditions would undermine this core principle by making it +nearly impossible for relief agencies to legally operate in al-Shabab-run territory, including many of the most +desperate regions of Somalia. The country is already one of the most dangerous for humanitarian workers, so +the United States' attempt to bring relief workers under its purview will only increase Somali suspicion toward +them and make the environment more precarious. +On top of this policy disaster, money for relief in Somalia is running out. The U.N. World Food Program +estimates that its coffers will be empty within the next few weeks. Even if more funds were pledged today, it +could require as many as four months for the money to reach beneficiaries on the ground. There will be an +inevitable gap in assistance to Somalis. +The timing could not be worse. The country's already catastrophic humanitarian crisis is being compounded by +a drought that has struck much of the Horn of Africa. Nearly half the population is estimated to urgently need +aid -- some 3.63 million people. • +The U.S. government is holding the Somalia relief enterprise and its beneficiaries hostage to its +counterterrorism policy. Agencies have resolutely upheld their commitment to humanitarian impartiality and +refused to be shut down by unreasonable conditions. Unfortunately, that precludes them from accepting U.S. +funds -- normally half of all aid to Somalia. Until Washington lets agencies fulfill their mission unhindered, the +U.S. mission to win ""hearts and minds"" in Somalia, a feared up-and-coming stronghold of terrorism, will be +completely undermined. Knowingly allowing millions of people to suffer is no way to win friends. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765106 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3149,C05765110,LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU'RE AWAKE.

The answer, of course, is no, +because this is riot about geography. Two veteran intelligence operatives with much Middle Eastern and Afghan +experience, speaking not for attribution, agreed a stable, secure Afghanistan doesn't change the equation, at least +not significantly. +The popular perception of al-Qaida in Afghanistan is the same propaganda news clip, shown a gazillion times +over the last eight years, replete with terrorist ""trainees"" in shalwar-kameez (knee-length shirts over baggy +pantaloons) running through obstacle courses and emerging from tunnels, presumably to kill us all in our beds. +Al-Qaida doesn't need commando-steeled volunteers to attack the United States and its allies. For the next Sept. +11, the chances are they have already selected highly motivated, brainwashed wackjobs among the graduates of +Pakistan's madrassas, who look forward to a one button push to the land of plenty in the sky where 72 impatient +maidens await their arrival. Al-Qaida's ""martyrs"" don't need Afghan training camps for WMD terrorism. In fact, +to be inconspicuous, they should not have the physique of an avoid-at-all-cost likely to arouse suspicion. +Al-Qaida does not need Afghanistan for its next terrorist objective. In fact, those who follow events in +Afghanistan closely were taken aback when Obama said Afghanistan was a war of necessity because that's +where al-Qaida. is. They haven't been there since Afghanistan was liberated in October 2001. They moved to +Pakistan's tribal areas where they attracted volunteers from the Middle East and Europe. When a reconstituted +Taliban insurgent force re-entered Afghanistan in large numbers in 2004, al-Qaida was not interested in its now +insecure old training camps. Even if Pakistan's current offensive.against the Taliban and al-Qaida in the tribal +areas is successful, al-Qaida is not an entity that can be captured or destroyed. Its clandestine operatives are +widely scattered in the Middle East, Africa, Europe, North and South America. +As alternatives to Afghanistan and Pakistan, Yemen, in the vernacular of the intelligence community, will do/is +doing it.

The answer, of course, is no, +because this is riot about geography. Two veteran intelligence operatives with much Middle Eastern and Afghan +experience, speaking not for attribution, agreed a stable, secure Afghanistan doesn't change the equation, at least +not significantly. +The popular perception of al-Qaida in Afghanistan is the same propaganda news clip, shown a gazillion times +over the last eight years, replete with terrorist ""trainees"" in shalwar-kameez (knee-length shirts over baggy +pantaloons) running through obstacle courses and emerging from tunnels, presumably to kill us all in our beds. +Al-Qaida doesn't need commando-steeled volunteers to attack the United States and its allies. For the next Sept. +11, the chances are they have already selected highly motivated, brainwashed wackjobs among the graduates of +Pakistan's madrassas, who look forward to a one button push to the land of plenty in the sky where 72 impatient +maidens await their arrival. Al-Qaida's ""martyrs"" don't need Afghan training camps for WMD terrorism. In fact, +to be inconspicuous, they should not have the physique of an avoid-at-all-cost likely to arouse suspicion. +Al-Qaida does not need Afghanistan for its next terrorist objective. In fact, those who follow events in +Afghanistan closely were taken aback when Obama said Afghanistan was a war of necessity because that's +where al-Qaida. is. They haven't been there since Afghanistan was liberated in October 2001. They moved to +Pakistan's tribal areas where they attracted volunteers from the Middle East and Europe. When a reconstituted +Taliban insurgent force re-entered Afghanistan in large numbers in 2004, al-Qaida was not interested in its now +insecure old training camps. Even if Pakistan's current offensive.against the Taliban and al-Qaida in the tribal +areas is successful, al-Qaida is not an entity that can be captured or destroyed.

The themes I stress are these: the importance of Berlin and the +Brandenburg Gate as symbols of freedom; the weight of history (always felt by Germans); the contribution of +the US and the salience of the Western alliance; the meaning of 1989 to today and especially the continuity of +the Western alliance; and segue from past to future. +What I have not done here but might be added are references to Angela Merkel (a courageous woman from the +east who embodies the highest values of the West); and specific policies. Those can be fitted in. +So, some ideas and language: +Twenty years ago the wall fell. Here, in Berlin, the moment when tens of thousands of citizens tore it down with +hammers and picks and bare hands is called ""Die Wende,"" a phrase that means more than simply a change but a +turning point in history. It was not only a turning point for Germany and Europe but also for the United States +because the wall—the reason for its construction and the reason for its destruction---is central to our common +history—and to our common future. +Richard von Weizsaecker said, ""As long as the Brandenburg Gate is closed, the German question will remain +open."" Today I can say with finality, the German question is closed, because the Brandenburg Gate is wide +open! The gate is open, Europe is open, and our future together is open. +In the forty years from the Berlin airlift to the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Atlantic partnership proved itself the +most successful alliance for freedom in history. That alliance was, is and shall be the crowning achievement of +American foreign policy. And the German – American relationship has always served as its foundation. Our +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765169 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765169 Date: 07/31/2015 +alliance represents the reconciliation of former enemies, an inspiration to other peoples and continents +devastated by war and hatred, and it must never be taken for granted. +In the twenty years since the fall of the wall we have created architecture for an enduring peace. Instead of a +wall we have built a gateway to the future. President Kennedy said in 1963 that in the future free men +everywhere will say, ""Ich bin ein Berliner."" Today Berlin has gained a new and even more powerful meaning. +Forever into the future, the opening of this Gate will be the symbol of the return of the dream of freedom, not +only to Berlin and Germany, but to the entire world. +The Gate, we must remember, was not built as a symbol of freedom. And each of the tyrannies that used the +Gate as a symbol believed it represented their eternal power. The Gate was first erected as a symbol against the +French Revolution; then it became a symbol of the imperial ambitions of Napoleon who marched his army +through. It was a symbol of Prussian militarism and monarchy. It was seized by the Nazi Party as the symbol of +its 1000 year rule. And then it became a symbol of the Communist totalitarianism that built a wall to separate +the people of Berlin as though freedom could be contained in only one part of the city. Here, in Berlin, the Cold +War was coldest. +We celebrate the fact that the wall that marred this proud city was taken down by the world's most enthusiastic +wrecking crew. The United States always believed in the freedom of Berlin because we believed in the future of +freedom. The courageous citizens of East Germany, Poland and other nations of the Communist bloc +demonstrated their dedication to free and peaceful solution of conflicts through their stand against dictatorship. +America stood resolutely as an ally at every moment of this struggle and moved swiftly to help the peoples of +Europe reunite after 1989. +We celebrate the steadiness of purpose, the restraint and respect for ultimate goals that allowed the Cold War to +end in peace. For how the victory was won was essential to the triumph. 1989 was special. It was that rarest of +historical events: a revolution that did not descend into violence. As a result the Gate survives not as a +cautionary monument to history's darkest moments but to its brightest. Today we celebrate the revolution of +1989, the turning point that transformed the Brandenburg Gate into the symbol of the hope of democracy and +the promise of freedom. +Berliner Luft, the air of Berlin; has always been unique. I can feel and smell the spirit of freedom in your +streets. The great American poet Carl Sandburg called Berlin the Chicago of Europe. Chicago is where I was +born and raised. I can sense the same energy, openness and dedication to hard work in both great cities. Another +Chicagoan, President Barack Obama, was drawn to Berlin last July, a city that he said made him feel like a +citizen of the world and a citizen of the future. +I was very proud to visit our new Embassy at the Brandenburg Gate, located exactly where the Wall used to +run. Our presence here will forever underscore our determination that the spark of freedom from this city in +1989 will help light the torches of freedom throughout the world. +The revolution of 1989 did not mark the end of history. Having made history together, we are summoned to +secure freedom for future generations. As vital at the beginning of the 21S' century as it was in the last half of +the 20'1', the Western alliance is called to new tasks. The dreams of 1989 reached far—and have farther to +reach. Old hatreds and conflicts—in the Balkins, the Caucauses, in the Middle East, East Asia, and Africa—still +simmer. We have much to demonstrate what we have learned from the last century. Without freedom, without +the rule of law, without the opportunity for people to support themselves and their families — without basic +human rights-- anger, aggression and violence will prevail. +Today we are faced with difficult and often dangerous conflicts arising not from conflicts between nations but +within them, conflicts exploited by zealots who make the false claim that violence will purify the world and +open the gates of heaven. Once zealots tried to use this Gate to symbolize that message. But through the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765169 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765169 Date: 07/31/2015 +courage and determination of the people of Berlin and their stalwart allies, this Gate now stands for a true +revolution of the spirit. The long twilight struggle to tear down this wall to make Europe whole and free inspires +us, in this new century, to help other peoples gain the same measure of security, respect and progress. +We need Berlin more than ever today. We need your courage, your fortitude, your commitment to the rights of +men—and women—we need your example. We are hardly at the end of the history of the West. Standing here, +where a wall once stood but is no more, in the light from the Gate, we have learned from history's deepest. +lessons.

Our +alliance represents the reconciliation of former enemies, an inspiration to other peoples and continents +devastated by war and hatred, and it must never be taken for granted. +In the twenty years since the fall of the wall we have created architecture for an enduring peace. Instead of a +wall we have built a gateway to the future. President Kennedy said in 1963 that in the future free men +everywhere will say, ""Ich bin ein Berliner."" Today Berlin has gained a new and even more powerful meaning. +Forever into the future, the opening of this Gate will be the symbol of the return of the dream of freedom, not +only to Berlin and Germany, but to the entire world. +The Gate, we must remember, was not built as a symbol of freedom. And each of the tyrannies that used the +Gate as a symbol believed it represented their eternal power. The Gate was first erected as a symbol against the +French Revolution; then it became a symbol of the imperial ambitions of Napoleon who marched his army +through. It was a symbol of Prussian militarism and monarchy. It was seized by the Nazi Party as the symbol of +its 1000 year rule. And then it became a symbol of the Communist totalitarianism that built a wall to separate +the people of Berlin as though freedom could be contained in only one part of the city. Here, in Berlin, the Cold +War was coldest. +We celebrate the fact that the wall that marred this proud city was taken down by the world's most enthusiastic +wrecking crew. The United States always believed in the freedom of Berlin because we believed in the future of +freedom. The courageous citizens of East Germany, Poland and other nations of the Communist bloc +demonstrated their dedication to free and peaceful solution of conflicts through their stand against dictatorship. +America stood resolutely as an ally at every moment of this struggle and moved swiftly to help the peoples of +Europe reunite after 1989. +We celebrate the steadiness of purpose, the restraint and respect for ultimate goals that allowed the Cold War to +end in peace. For how the victory was won was essential to the triumph. 1989 was special. It was that rarest of +historical events: a revolution that did not descend into violence. As a result the Gate survives not as a +cautionary monument to history's darkest moments but to its brightest. Today we celebrate the revolution of +1989, the turning point that transformed the Brandenburg Gate into the symbol of the hope of democracy and +the promise of freedom. +Berliner Luft, the air of Berlin, has always been unique. I can feel and smell the spirit of freedom in your +streets. The great American poet Carl Sandburg called Berlin the Chicago of Europe. Chicago is where I was +born and raised. I can sense the same energy, openness and dedication to hard work in both great cities. Another +Chicagoan, President Barack Obama, was drawn to Berlin last July, a city that he said made him feel like a +citizen of the world and a citizen of the future. +I was very proud to visit our new Embassy at the Brandenburg Gate, located exactly where the Wall used to +run. Our presence here will forever underscore our determination that the spark of freedom from this city in +1989 will help light the torches of freedom throughout the world. +The revolution of 1989 did not mark the end of history.

Forever into the future, the opening +of this Gate will be the symbol of the return of the dream of freedom, not only to Berlin and Germany, but to the entire +world. +The Gate, we must remember, was not built as a symbol of freedom. And each of the tyrannies that used the Gate as a +symbol believed it represented their eternal power. The Gate was first erected as a symbol against the French +Revolution; then it became a symbol of the imperial ambitions of Napoleon who marched his army through. It was a +symbol of Prussian militarism and monarchy. It was seized by the Nazi Party as the symbol of its 1000 year rule. And +then it became a symbol of the Communist totalitarianism that built a wall to separate the people of Berlin as though +freedom could be contained in only one part of the city. Here, in Berlin, the Cold War was coldest. +We celebrate the fact that the wall that marred this proud city was taken down by the world's most enthusiastic +wrecking crew. The United States always believed in the freedom of Berlin because we believed in the future of +freedom. The courageous citizens of East Germany, Poland and other nations of the Communist bloc demonstrated their +dedication to free and peaceful solution of conflicts through their stand against dictatorship. America stood resolutely as +an ally at every moment of this struggle and moved swiftly to help the peoples of Europe reunite after 1989. +We celebrate the steadiness of purpose, the restraint and respect for ultimate goals that allowed the Cold War to end in +peace. For how the victory was won was essential to the triumph. 1989 was special. It was that rarest of historical +events: a revolution that did not descend into violence. As a result the Gate survives not as a cautionary monument to +history's darkest moments but to its brightest. Today we celebrate the revolution of 1989, the turning point that +transformed the Brandenburg Gate into the symbol of the hope of democracy and the promise of freedom. +Berliner Luft, the air of Berlin, has always been unique. I can feel and smell the spirit of freedom in your streets. The +great American poet Carl Sandburg called Berlin the Chicago of Europe. Chicago is where I was born and raised. I can +sense the same energy, openness and dedication to hard work in both great cities. Another Chicagoan, President Barack +Obama, was drawn to Berlin last July, a city that he said made him feel like a citizen of the world and a citizen of the +future. +I was very proud to visit our new Embassy at the Brandenburg Gate, located exactly where the Wall used to run. Our +presence here will forever underscore our determination that the spark of freedom from this city in 1989 will help light +the torches of freedom throughout the world. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765213 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765213 Date: 07/31/2015 +The revolution of 1989 did not mark the end of history. Having made history together, we are summoned to secure +freedom for future generations. As vital at the beginning of the 21st century as it was in the last half of the 20th, the +Western alliance is called to new tasks. The dreams of 1989 reached far—and have farther to reach. Old hatreds and +conflicts—in the Balkins, the Caucauses, in the Middle East, East Asia, and Africa—still simmer. We have much to +demonstrate what we have learned from the last century. Without freedom, without the rule of law, without the +opportunity for people to support themselves and their families – without basic human rights-- anger, aggression and +violence will prevail. +Today we are faced with difficult and often dangerous conflicts arising not from conflicts between nations but within +them, conflicts exploited by zealots who make the false claim that violence will purify the world and open the gates of +heaven. Once zealots tried to use this Gate to symbolize that message. But through the courage and determination of +the people of Berlin and their stalwart allies, this Gate now stands for a true revolution of the spirit. The long twilight +struggle to tear down this wall to make Europe whole and free inspires us, in this new century, to help other peoples +gain the same measure of security, respect and progress. +We need Berlin more than ever today. We need your courage, your fortitude, your commitment to the rights of men— +and women—we need your example. We are hardly at the end of the history of the West. Standing here, where a wall +once stood but is no more, in the light from the Gate, we have learned from history's deepest lessons. Our alliance, +linked by shared struggle, dedicated to the ideals of freedom and democracy, strong from the world we have built, now +faces a new world of challenges. And we are ready to meet and conquer them. We know it has been done before. We +are free men—and women—and proud to say, We are all Berliners. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765213 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3172,C05765218,(REUTERS) ZELAYA SAYS PACT TO END HONDURAN CRISIS HAS FAILED,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-11-06T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_046/DOC_0C05765218/C05765218.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,(Reuters) Zelaya says pact to end Honduran crisis has failed,H,"Abedin, Hume ",SES-O_Shift-I,"Friday, November 6, 2009 7:18 AM",F-2014-20439,C05765218,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765218 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN +FULL +From: Abedin, Hume +Sent: Friday, November 6, 2009 7:18 AM +To: H +Subject Fw: (Reuters) Zelaya says pact to end Honduran crisis has failed +From: Krayman, Igor +To: NEWS-WHA; NEWS-Mahogany +Cc: SES-O_Shift-I +Sent: Fri Nov 06 06:21:11 2009 +Subject: (Reuters) Zelaya says pact to end Honduran crisis has failed +TEGUCIGALPA - Ousted Honduran President Manuel Zelaya said an accord to end a political crisis has failed after de 1 +facto leader Roberto Micheletti announced he would form a new cabinet without Zelaya. +Igor Krayman +Operations Specialist +Department of State Operations Center +202-647-1512 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765218 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3173,C05765219,"ALSO WANT TO CREDIT JOHN KORNBLUM, BILL DROZDIAK AND TED WIDMER, ALL OF WHOM I CONSULTED.

So the way the international community jumped +to punish tiny Honduras for the ouster of its president, without knowing the facts, was foolish. +That some Senate Republicans have been extremist in the other direction borders on galling. Opposing a U.S.- +brokered agreement reached a week ago by Hondurans to defuse the crisis, the senators, led by South Carolina's +Jim DeMint, have been grandstanding on principles that have little to do with reality, contributing to looming +chaos in that Central American country and undermining U.S. policy in the region. +In this, the age of fundamentalist ayatollahs, the knee-jerk cold warriors among the Senate Republicans are no +better than the knee-jerk anti-military officials in the Organization of American States. +The compromise leaves egg on the face of the OAS and an intelligentsia that refused to see Honduras as more +than a banana republic that somehow could infect the region, only to be confronted by a Senate cabal that treats +Honduras as . . . a banana republic that somehow could infect the rest of the region. +The former see this impoverished backwater of 8 million people setting off a chain of military coups, while the +latter see it setting off a chain of leftist dictatorships. The two share an equally misguided domino theory. +Poor Honduras, in the meantime. +The compromise, put together by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and -- yes -- sensible State Department +diplomats, creatively settled on a process instead of an end. Ousted President Manuel Zelaya and de facto +President Roberto Micheletti agreed to allow the Honduran Congress, with the advice of that country's Supreme +Court, to resolve the question of whether Zelaya should return to office for the last 2 1/2 months of his term. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765224 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765224 Date: 07/31/2015 +Zelaya created the crisis by instigating mob rule in June to try to carry out an unconstitutional referendum +designed to lift a limit on a president's time in office. The Supreme Court ordered the military to arrest him, but +the generals, fearful of riots, went one step further and illegally exiled him. Congress, not the military, then took +political control. Zelaya later snuck back into Honduras, however, and is now holed up in the Brazilian +Embassy. +The Honduran Congress is likely to allow Zelaya's reinstatement, with limited powers, as a way to gain +legitimacy for long-scheduled presidential elections later this month. That is what it should do, but Zelaya has +postponed discussing the makeup of the cabinet, and Congress could shut him out. Public tension is high, but +DeMint and other Republicans, instead of counseling caution, opposed even the compromise agreement and are +demanding that Zelaya be rejected, setting up the country for revolution. +They have been doing reckless damage in Washington as well. Since the spring, they have held up the +appointments of the administration's Latin America policy team. DeMint lifted the hold only late Thursday, +after Clinton promised him that the United States would recognize the Honduran elections even if Zelaya is not +reinstated, an end the Republicans are unwisely pushing. +The intellectual force behind the Republican obstruction is the Wall Street Journal's influential Americas +columnist, Mary O'Grady. Beating the Honduran drum for months, O'Grady maintains that Zelaya's return +would be a victory for Hugo Chavez, Venezuela's leftist president. She further accuses President Obama of +being Chavez's virtual ally. As she wrote this week: ""Mr. Chavez and Fidel Castro were supporting Mr. Zelaya, +and Mr. Obama apparently wanted to be part of the gang."" +O'Grady is a friend and former colleague of mine, so I know that she is concerned for Latin America's welfare. +But her scorched-earth accusations against Obama and Clinton are wrong. An obsession with Chavez and +Castro also builds both up when their influence is waning in the region. Being ideologically black or white may +feel good, but it isn't helpful in resolving gray constitutional -- or human -- affairs. +Anyway, it's the grays that make life interesting. +The administration was right to calibrate its response, working with the de facto government while slowly +increasing the pressure for Zelaya's return by cutting aid to Honduras. The policy recognized that both sides +have valid arguments. It also deftly sidelined Chavez, making him irrelevant. A deal was possible only as the +election approached and both sides became ready to compromise. What the deal needs now is support, not +obstruction, from the U.S. Senate. +Edward Schumacher-Matos is syndicated by the Washington Post Writers Group.

Somalia is +effectively broken."" +United Nations officials said that around 40 million pounds of American-donated food +was being held up in warehouses in Mombasa, in neighboring Kenya, because +American officials were not allowing aid workers to distribute it until a new set of +tighter regulations was ironed out. +United Nations officials said the American government was insisting on guarantees +that were unrealistic in Somalia, like demanding that aid transporters not pay fees at +roadblocks, which are ubiquitous and virtually unavoidable in a nation widely +considered a case study in chaos. +American aid officials declined to comment on Friday. +In the drought-stricken regions of central Somalia, where entire communities are on +the brink of famine, elders said that many children who had been surviving off the +American donations were now dying from hunger. +""We are totally dependent on this food, and people are now suffering,"" said Ahmed +Mahamoud Hassan, the chairman of the drought committee in Galcaio, central +Somalia. ""We have nothing else to eat."" +Somalia is one of the neediest nations in the world — and one of the most complex +environments to deliver aid. Ever since the central government imploded in 1991, the +country has lurched from one crisis to the next, the latest being a vicious civil war +between a weak government and an extremist Islamist insurgency during one of the +worst droughts in years. +The United States has played a huge role in saving lives by supplying about 40 percent +of the $850 million annual aid budget for Somalia. But that aid is often only loosely +monitored at best once it enters the country because of the dangers of working in +Somalia and the fact that so much of it is a no-go zone for foreigners. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765250 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765250 Date: 07/31/2015 +For months now, United Nations officials have been negotiating with their American +counterparts, trying to agree on language for new rules that would ensure, as much as +possible, that American donated food goes to needy people and not to the Shabab. +Last month, American officials said they were legally bound to do this, because the +American government has listed the Shabab as a terrorist organization, a designation +that means that aiding or abetting the Shabab is a serious crime. +There is increasing evidence, according to United Nations documents, that some of the +United Nations contractors in Somalia have been stealing food and channeling the +proceeds to the Shabab and other militant groups. United Nations officials are +investigating some of their biggest contractors. +United Nations officials say that other donor nations have been skittish about +contributing aid during these investigations, which is another reason for the aid +shortages in Somalia. The global recession has also taken a toll on aid operations +around the world. +That said, ""the United States is traditionally W.F.P.'s largest single donor,"" said Peter +Smerdon, a spokesman for the World Food Program, ""and other donors cannot make +up the difference."" +He warned that the food supplies for Somalia were steadily dwindling each month and +that by December, ""we will completely run out."" +Partly because of the standoff over the new rules and the ensuing interruption in the +food pipeline, the World Food Program recently halved the emergency rations to the +more than one million displaced Somalis. +United Nations officials said they had been urging the American government to release +at least some of the food from the warehouses in Kenya while they worked out the new +rules. +The officials said that even if they wanted to bypass the American government and ship +in food from other countries, which would cost millions of dollars, it would be +impossible to get it to Somalia in time and that the American sacks of grain sitting in +Mombasa were the only solution to averting a widespread famine. +""The urgency of the situation has been communicated,"" said one United Nations official +in Nairobi, who spoke on condition of anonymity because negotiations were +continuing.

She was predeceased by her parents and siblings, Claude, Eddie, +Grady, Hansel, Clara, Isli, and Doyle. She was predeceased by her loving husband of 67 years, Stephen Fowler Spargo, +and by Jamie and Billy Gibbs, her daughter and sonin-law, and her son-in-law Allen Brown DeLamar. The Spargos, natives +of Hot Springs, made Arkadelphia home when Steve joined Reynolds Aluminum Company in 1954. +Mrs. Spargo is survived by her son and daughter-in-law, Byron and Mary Lynda Spargo, of Baton Rouge, La., and her +daughters, Nancy Spargo DeLamar, of Little Rock, and Dr. Linda Spargo, of Oxford, Miss. Her grandchildren include +Megan DeLamar Schroeder and her husband, Trey, of Texarkana; Hattie Alton of Oxford, Miss.; Johni Beth Gibbs and her +fiance Jeremy Teague of Sheridan; Gwendy Clingman and her husband, Ed, of Mechanicsville, Va.; and Leslie Spargo of +Baton Rouge. Johnnie Mae was especially proud of her great-grandchildren: Frances and Eleanor Schroeder and Ryan +and Lauren Clingman. +She was a fierce and loyal advocate for each and every one of her offspring and truly believed that they could be +anything in the world they wanted to be. She was a member of the First Methodist Church in Arkadelphia. Johnnie Mae +was a pre-school teacher for many years at Margo Nelson's Wonderland School in Arkadelphia. She also helped her +community as a constant and reliable election poll worker. Even though Johnnie Mae was determined that she not be +perceived as a retiring little granny, her family was her universe. She was a strong, vibrant woman with black hair coiffed +on top of her head and clicking high heels, and she had beautiful skin that all of her progeny hope to inherit. She +believed in living to the fullest until the end, doing good works, helping all whom she encountered in ways that she +could, and imbuing her children and grandchildren with a strong work ethic and deep empathy for those less fortunate. +Many people in Arkansas have been the recipient of one of her lemon butter pound cakes for doing something kind for +one of her girls. When she won the 2003 Clark County Democrat of the Year, Johnnie Mae was described as a cross +between Eva Peron and Mary Poppins. +Johnnie Mae made her mark on Arkadelphia, determined that her children would enjoy to the fullest the experiences +that the Norman Rockwellian setting provided. She threw herself into any endeavor that her children and grandchildren +wanted to pursue. When Becky Fuller, now Rebecca Ward, was the first person from the city to win a statewide election +at Girl's State, Johnnie Mae organized a city-wide homecoming celebration complete with a parade for all the +Arkadelphia delegates that included her daughter Nancy. When Johnnie Mae's daughter Jamie wanted to pursue rodeo +and barrel racing, Nonnie perfected her ability to sew cowgirl outfits while also cheering-on her daughter from the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765275 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765275 Date: 07/31/2015 +stands. When her daughter Linda wanted to serve as a cheerleader for Arkadelphia High School and then Ouachita +Baptist University, Johnnie Mae and Steve's house became nerve-center for all events athletic. When daughter Nancy +returned to Arkadelphia in 1964 with seven-month-old Megan to raise, Johnnie and Steve provided a nurturing, loving +home for daughter and granddaughter. Megan was the grandchild who gave Johnnie Mae her proudest title: Johnnie +Mae became ""Nonnie."" +Nonnie was queen of a tribe of three generations of women known as ""Spargo Girls."" When her great-granddaughters +Frances and Eleanor were born in 1999, Nonnie was determined that the twin girls would not use an exclusive +communication method. Nonnie's special task was to talk with them extensively and one-on-one, making sure that the +girls' first desire was to talk to her. Active in Democratic politics at all levels and with a passion, she was equally a +dedicated life master of duplicate bridge and played many a set with her friends at the House of Bridge in Hot Springs. +Johnnie ultimately spent most of her time driving to wherever one of her children lived to help with whatever tasks of +life needed tending. In response to this demanding schedule, she famously responded, ""You can sleep when you are +dead!"" Her stock question when confronted with news from one of her children of a pending event — whether one was +receiving an award or going out for lunch — was ""Well, what will you wear?"" Raising all these Spargo girls, she was +expert not only at re-upholstering an entire set of living room furniture, she also sewed countless, spontaneous-yet- +appropriate attire, from couture evening gowns to cowgirl wear. Making ball gowns from the draperies was not +exclusive to other southern heroines. +Perhaps Johnnie Mae's most endearing qualities were unfailing optimism combined with great pragmatism. She lived in +the present and did not believe in guilt or regrets. Born before women could vote, she cast one of her last votes for the +woman she hoped would be the first woman President. When Hillary did not prevail, she once again enjoyed casting a +vote for a straight Democratic ticket. Nonnie would want the family to express special gratitude for the many kindnesses +extended to her by the staff and nurses at Presbyterian Village in Little Rock, where she resided since June 2009. Thank +you is extended also to Arkansas Hospice whose compassion and care comforted both family and friends. Thanks are +also expressed to the staff of Home Instead and their compassionate caregiver, Bette White. John Lee Roberts of +Arkadelphia provided unwavering help and assistance and was a much loved friend and companion to both Steve and +Johnnie Mae. +The family will have a visitation at 9:30-10:30 a.m. Wednesday at Ruggles-Wilcox Funeral Home in Arkadelphia, followed +by a graveside service at 10:30 a.m. Wednesday at Rose Hill Cemetery led by Father Douglas Anderson of St. James +Episcopal Church, Texarkana.

Washington would be very disappointed that M refused to +cooperate with the country that has done the most to promote support for the October 30 Accord and promote support +for elections in his country. Moreover, M would be passing up a chance to go down in history as a statesman as +opposed the man who launched a coup. +Last night the aide called Hugo to say that M had considered this again and was sensitive to our arguments. He had +decided to make a speech today (November 19) to announce that he as ""absenting himself"" for the days preceding the +election through December 2 —the date of the vote on Z's restitution in the Congress. The latter is a significant date, +because if Z wins the vote, M is gone, and if Z loses the vote, M has no reason to stay to keep Z out. M will leave the +country in the control of a sort of executive council. +This afternoon M's staff shared with us the draft of a speech that M plans to make tonight at 7:00 pm EST (6:00 pm in +Honduras). We have been suggesting edits to the text, which M has accepted. +This is Honduras, so we will wait to see what happens at 7:00 pm. If M goes through with it, we will launch calls to key +countries to urged them to recognize that the situation on the ground has changed enough to allow more vigorous +support for elections.

He's sleeping on chairs, and he claims his +throat is sore from toxic gases and ""Israeli mercenaries"" are torturing him with high-frequency radiation. +""We are being threatened with death,"" he said in an interview with The Miami Herald, adding that +mercenaries were likely to storm the embassy where he has been holed up since Monday and +assassinate him. +""I prefer to march on my feet than to live on my knees before a military dictatorship,"" Zelaya said in a +series of back-to-back interviews. +Zelaya was deposed at gunpoint on June 28 and slipped back into his country on Monday, just two +days before he was scheduled to speak before the United Nations. He sought refuge at the Brazilian +Embassy, where Zelaya said he is being subjected to toxic gases and radiation that alter his physical +and mental state. +Witnesses said that for a short time Tuesday morning, soldiers used a device that looked like a large +satellite dish to emit a loud shrill noise. +Honduran police spokesman Orlin Cerrato said he knew nothing of any radiation devices being used +against the former president. +""He says there are mercenaries against him? Using some kind of apparatus?"" Cerrato said. ""No, no, +no, no. Sincerely: no. The only elements surrounding that embassy are police and military, and they +have no such apparatus."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765321 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765321 Date: 07/31/2015 +Police responded to reports of looting throughout the city Tuesday night. Civil disturbances subsided +Wednesday afternoon, when a crush of people rushed grocery stores and gas stations in the capital. +Israeli government sources in Miami said they could not confirm the presence of any ""Israelis +mercenaries"" in Honduras. +Zelaya, 56, is at the embassy with his family and other supporters, without a change of clothes or +toothpaste. The power and water were turned back on, and the U.N. brought in some food. Photos +showed Zelaya, his trademark cowboy hat across his face, napping on a few chairs he had pushed +together. +""Look at the shape he's in — sleeping on chairs,"" de facto President Roberto Micheletti told a local TV +news station. +Micheletti took Zelaya's place after the military, executing a Supreme Court arrest warrant, burst into +Zelaya's house and forced him into exile. The country's military, congress, Supreme Court and +economic leaders have backed the ouster, arguing that Zelaya was bent on conducting an illegal +plebiscite that they feared would ultimately lead to his reelection. +Micheletti said he was prepared to meet with Zelaya and a delegation from the Organization of +American States, but only to discuss one topic: November elections. +On Wednesday, the U.N. cut off all technical aid that would have supported and given credibility to +that presidential race. Conditions do not exist for credible elections, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki- +moon said. +""I proposed dialogue, and they answered with bullets, bombs, a state of siege and by closing the +airport,"" Zelaya said. +Zelaya told The Herald that Washington should be taking a stronger stance against the elite +economic interests that ""financed and benefited"" from the coup that ousted him three months ago. +If President Barack Obama hit Honduras with commercial sanctions or suspended free-trade +agreements, the coup ""would last just five minutes."" +The Obama administration suspended economic aid to Honduras and withdrew the visas of members +of the current administration. +About 75 percent of Honduras' commerce depends on the United States, Zelaya said. And because +powerful economic forces were behind Zelaya's ouster, Obama should hit those forces where it hurts +most, Zelaya said. +""I have told this to Obama, to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, to the U.S. Embassy here and +anyone else who will listen,"" Zelaya said. ""They know how to act. Until now, they have been very +prudent."" +With Micheletti showing a new willingness to talk with the OAS, and the U.N.

Security Council meeting came at the request of the Brazilian +government.

""And we're +continuing our consultations with our partners in the region, and enlisting wherever we can their +assistance in this process."" +The U.S. Embassy here spent the day denying rumors that Zelaya planned to move to American +grounds. The rumor may have started because U.S. Embassy vehicles were used to evacuate Zelaya +supporters who left the Brazilian Embassy willingly Tuesday. +""The embassy has been turned into a bunker for Zelaya,"" Assistant Foreign Minister Martha Lorena +Alvarado de Casco told The Herald. ""He's turned it into his headquarters, and he is using it to call for +insurrection."" +Brazilian Foreign Minister Celso Amorim told CNN en Espanol that his government asked Zelaya to +tone down his rhetoric while he remains an embassy guest. +""The word 'death' should not even be mentioned,"" he said. +Rioting broke out in various parts of the capital Tuesday night, and lines hundreds deep formed at +supermarkets when desperate shoppers scrambled to buy food after a round-the-clock curfew was +briefly lifted. +""I have no food in my house,"" said Patti Vasquez, a housewife who, after two hours, still had not +reached the front doors of a supermarket in an upscale shopping mall. ""I need to get milk and juice +and eggs."" +Zelaya says he has no plans to leave the embassy anytime soon. +. ""I am the president the people of Honduras chose,"" Zelaya said.

You will of course recall Wolfgang as the former director of the German Foreign Ministry and +ambassador to the UK and US. He knows Westerwelle very well, Wolfgang's former staff is now mostly +Westerwelle's senior staff and he understands Westerwelle's personality. +Wolfgang Ischinger +11/08/09 +The important thing about Guido Westerwelle is that he's spent his entire life in politics. He's scored a dramatic +success for a small party, which has traditionally scored 9 to 10 percent, but now at 15 percent. He wants to +translate this victory into a sustained role for the Free Democrats in the system. There's a lot of ambition there. +He has not spent any significant amount of time on foreign policy, not his area of expertise, but he's a quick +study. He's a fluent English speaker, not a conservative at all, advocated the idea of a nuclear free world, +embraced fully. That is one operational area where the US can expect a lot of support. +He will make a real effort to maintain and expand a meaningful relationship with Russia. I don't see any friction +at all with the US. He's a transatlanticist by nature and training. +One footnote: Westerwelle has argued during the campaign and in recent speeches that he wishes to promote a +process that would allow the remaining US weapons in Germany, holdovers form the Cold War, to be +eliminated. It's not an anti-US point, but a German way of saying we are in favor of nuclear disarmament. It +should not be seen as a hostile act, but a German contribution to a nuclear free world. +He lives with a partner who has a PR agency. He represents a new generation that doesn't mind same sex +partnership, symbolizes a new, more liberal society where the traditional taboos are no longer in existence.

He didn't come out of the closet for many years. There's a degree of vulnerability +behind it. +He's not a 'buddy"" guy, who slaps people on the back. It takes time to develop a trusting relationship with him. +It's more difficult for him than others. He's a careful person in terms of personal relationships. +Hans-Dietrich Genscher is considered a trademark in Germany of successful diplomacy in the last decade +before the end of the Cold War and the transition. (Genscher was foreign minsiter from 1974-92.) If you can say +Genscher is your mentor that is thought to be reassuring in Germany. Kohl is out of circulation. Schmidt is +retired. Genscher is really the only one. That Westerwelle refers to his relationship is reassuring given that +Guido is not a foreign policy specialist. Genscher's blessing is good for him. At the personal level, the +relationship was never intimate. It would not be correct to say Westerwelle is a Genscher creation. He made his +own career. +Westerwelle is going to rely to a great extent on staff members who earned their experience in the Genscher +days (and worked with Ischinger). The senior staff that will now be appointed at the foreign minister will be +excellent—a lot of pro-transatlantic people in the lineup. +This is good news for the bilateral relationship. It will be easier to work this German foreign ministry than was +the case with Steinmeier. +Westerwelle knows that the one relationship he must manage well is the one with Secretary clinton. +My advice is that she works with him closely, as closely as with any European foreign minister, that would be +very beneficial. If she can embrace him and make him look good that make will things go well. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765340 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3198,C05765343,,H,"Talbott, Strobe",196,2009-11-08T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_047/DOC_0C05765343/C05765343.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,H,Strobe Talbott,,"Sunday, November 8, 2009 11:11 AM",F-2014-20439,C05765343,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Assume you're in Berlin.

A +critical mass of influential people who once held big hopes for his presidency began to +wonder whether they had misjudged the man. Most significant, these doubters now find +themselves with a new reluctance to defend Obama at a phase of his presidency when he +needs defenders more urgently than ever. +This is the price Obama has paid with his complicity and most likely his active +participation, in the shabbiest episode of his presidency: The firing by leaks of White +House counsel Gregory Craig, a well-respected Washington veteran and influential early +supporter of Obama. +The people who are most aghast by the handling of the Craig departure can't be +dismissed by the White House as Republican partisans, or still-embittered Hillary Clinton +supporters. They are not naïve activists who don't understand that the exercise of power +can be a rough business and that trade-offs and personal disappointments are inevitable. +Instead, they are people, either in politics or close observers, who once held an +unromantically high opinion of Obama. They were important to his rise, and are likely +more important to the success or failure of his presidency than Obama or his distressingly +insular and small-minded West Wing team appreciate. +The Craig embarrassment gives these people a new reason — not the first or only reason +— to conclude that he wasn't the person of integrity and even classiness they had thought, +and, more fundamentally, that his ability to move people and actually lead a fractured and +troubled country (the reason many preferred him over Hillary Clinton) is not what had been +promised in the campaign. +This may seem like a lot to hang on a Washington personnel move. After all, intramural +back-stabbing or making people fall guys when things go wrong (think Bill Clinton's +Defense Secretary Les Aspin after the disaster in Somalia) are not new to +Washingtonians. +But Craig's ouster did not occur in a vacuum. It served as a focal point to concerns that +have been building for months that Obama wasn't pressing for all that might be possible +within the existing political constraints (all that one could ask of a president); that his +presidential voice hadn't fulfilled the hopes raised by his campaign voice (which had also +taken him a while to find); that he hadn't created a movement, as he had raised +expectations that he would; that would be there to back him up and help him fulfill his +promises. +That is why it is worth pondering how the Craig story, unfolded in detail — its +consequences likely will echo far longer than anything Obama said or did in Asia. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765355 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765355 Date: 07/31/2015 +Briefly, here's what happened, some of it told for the first time: Craig, who had known the +Clintons since they were all at Yale Law School together, had served as a senior adviser +to Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, but in 1998 gave up that job to help defend Bill +Clinton against impeachment. Yet in 2008, he supported Obama for the nomination — not +so much a turning against Hillary Clinton as being impressed early, as were some other +prominent Washingtonians, by the then-state senator but would-be U.S. Senate candidate +at a fundraiser held by Vernon Jordan, seeing Obama as the first potentially inspiring +Democratic figure since Robert Kennedy. In the course of the campaign, Craig wrote a +highly publicized memo questioning some of Hillary Clinton's claims of foreign policy +experience, such as coming under enemy fire in Tuzla, Bosnia. During the campaign, +Craig coached Obama for the debates (playing McCain), and praised him highly. Craig's +imprimatur helped the neophyte Obama in certain influential circles. +He hoped to get a high foreign policy position in an Obama administration, but when +Clinton was named secretary of state, this of course became untenable. The Clintons are +an unforgiving lot. So, Obama and Craig agreed that Craig would take the job of White +House counsel for a year, and then they'd discuss what he'd do next. Thus, Craig was +handed a very tricky portfolio. +During the transition, about mid-December, Craig presented to a group of the president's +newly named national security advisers meeting in Washington — including Clinton, +Defense Secretary Robert Gates, national security adviser General James Jones, and +others — three proposed executive orders: One ordered the shutting down of Guantanamo +in a year. (The others banned torture and closed down the C.I.A.'s ""black sites""; and +addressed future detainee policy.) The one-year target for closing Guantanamo resulted +from consultations with human rights and detainee rights groups, who argued that +Guantanamo could be shut down in three months, and with Pentagon officials, who had +no united position but argued that it would take from a year to 18 months. +At the meeting, only the newly named Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, +beamed in from Arizona, questioned whether a year was realistic. When Gates, as he +later confirmed publicly, said that though it was an ""ambitious"" deadline, he supported it +because setting it was the only way to get things, especially the bureaucracy, moving +toward that end, and that it could be extended if it couldn't be met, that was it. +Obama's new national security team signed off on the executive order to close +Guantanamo in a year. This was passed along to the president as well as his top aides; +Craig was never in a meeting with the political side of the White House on the +Guantanamo matter — and the president-elect and then president raised no objection +before, when, or after he signed off on it. +Unsurprisingly, the deadline became hard to meet, for various legal and political reasons - +including the congressional outburst of NIMBYISM (similar to its earlier outbursts on Dubai +Ports and even Terri Schiavo — short-term, irrational, and politically motivated fits that +erupt from the Congress from time to time). If Craig failed to foresee this (as some later +charged), he had a lot of company. +The closing of Guantanamo is undoubtedly far further along than it would have been +without the executive order. But along the way, Craig fell out of favor with the president's +political aides and, apparently, the president himself. Whether he was simply being made +the fall guy, or the tight circle of Chicagoans in the White House didn't care for this +outsider, or he committed some unknown errors, suddenly, in August, leaks began to +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765355 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765355 Date: 07/31/2015 +surface that his job was in danger. Non-denial denials were issued from the White House. +The leaks became a pattern, a systematic, anonymous, tipping off of reporters that Craig +would soon be gone. +Craig was accused, anonymously of course, of a welter of charges: of being ""too close to +the human rights groups"" (if so, what was wrong with that?), of not playing well with +others, of being a bad manager, of being fixated on Guantanamo to the detriment of other +issues. In the summer, Obama offered Craig another job, which Craig declined, and the +two agreed that they would discuss the matter further later in the year. But the leaks +continued, and Craig decided that his situation was untenable, and he had to leave. +To make sure he did, he was leaked his way out, up to the day before he planned to +.resign. What caused so many Obama supporters' stomachs to turn was that Obama could +have stopped the leaking at any time; he or White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel +could have arranged a dignified departure. (They're within their rights to get rid of +someone if they're dissatisfied, for good reasons or not — but a preferred route would be to +call that person in and ask what day would suit him or her to resign, and then just let that +person do it. This happens a lot in administrations; even if people don't believe the +resignation was voluntary, there's a soupcon of dignity left to that person.) Even some +Hillary Clinton supporters, who still hold no brief for Craig, think he was treated shabbily. +And this opinion is not confined to ""political junkies."" Thomas Wilner, a distinguished +Washington attorney who challenged Bush administration detainee policies, particularly on +Guantanamo, and had worked with Craig on these issues, told me, ""There's a lot of +concern among a lot of lawyers in this town, especially those who were supporting +Obama, that somebody this bright, this respected, this good, and with this integrity, was +treated in such a way."" +Yes, we knew, or should have, during the campaign that the supposed idealist Obama +had a bit of the Chicago cut-throat in him, but there was little sign that he could be as +brutal and heedless of loyalty as he was in the Craig affair. An unexpected climate of fear +emanates from the Obama White House. +The incident underscored worries that several had held about the Obama White House for +some time: that it was too tightly controlled and narrowly focused by the Chicago crowd; +that it seemed from the outset to need an older, wiser head, someone with a bit more +detachment. +The current crowd displays a certain impulsiveness and vindictiveness that do it no good - +as in the silly war-let on Fox News that it is now trying to back out of. Even if Craig was +making a hash of his job — and there's no independent evidence of this — it just wasn't +smart to treat someone widely held in such high respect in this manner; once again, the +impulsiveness backfired. +The replacing of Craig with Washington attorney Robert Bauer, Obama's own attorney for +years as well as counsel for the Democratic National Committee and the Obama +campaign, further narrowed the White House circle just when it needed broadening, +lowered the stature of the office, and choosing the president's personal attorney for a +position that calls for dispassionate judgment is hazardous. (Does anyone remember +Alberto Gonzalez?) +The Obama's themselves hang tight with a small Chicago crowd. Yes, he talks to others, +and yes, a president's time is very limited, but the Obama's themselves seem as closed- +off and unto themselves as does his inner White House circle. (Is this a coincidence? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765355 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765355 Date: 07/31/2015 +What is all this wariness about?) When the Obama's go to someone's house for dinner, +almost invariably it's to that of Valerie Jarrett, the old friend from Chicago who serves as a +counselor and whom they see all day. Old Chicago friends fly in for weekends frequently. +Old friends, who had helped launch him, helped them personally, have been left behind. +At the same time as the Craig imbroglio happened, many people who had defended +Obama against charges that he wasn't what he'd been cracked up to be were now +becoming concerned themselves: though it was a relief to have a president who thought +through crucial decisions about sending the country's young to war, it was taking him +awfully long to make up his mind about what to do about Afghanistan and Pakistan, and +the decision-making was bafflingly leak-ridden (was this a deliberate airing of ideas or a +loss of control over the process?); that the health care debate had in fact careened out of +his control and it seemed less and less likely that, having used up almost a year of his +presidency on it (his ""deadlines"" had become irrelevant, and so, in a way, had he), he +would end up with a bill, if at all, that did enough net good. +Certain things are not his fault: the unprecedented truculence of the Republican Party, +scared silly by right-wing ranters on cable television; the unholy economic and foreign- +policy mess that he inherited; the fact that he never had, as so many liberal commentators +asserted, the 60 (or 58 or 59) Senate votes that would enable him to get what he wanted +from the Congress. It's not his fault that unemployment rates remain stubbornly high +following a traumatic recession. +And it's always risky to project the long-term from the moment. Perhaps this will prove to +have been a passing moment. Perhaps Obama will still salvage a health care bill that is a +real step forward (though there will be a humongous fight over its definition); maybe he'll +come up with a smart strategy — or the best of bad options — on Afghanistan and Pakistan; +it's not impossible that he'll add real progress on climate change and regulatory reform to +his list of achievements, and that he'll start to get the deficit under control. +Maybe there'll be enough examples of grace that will make people forget this period of +pettiness. He's been lucky before; maybe he'll get lucky again. Meanwhile, serious people +who had a lot of hope about him and who defended him are more worried than ever, and +in this if anything over-communicative society the White House can't write them off as ""a +bunch of Washington insiders.""

The three were held after +they strayed into Iran from northern Iraq at the end of July. The three, Shane Bauer, 27, Sarah Shourd, 31, and Josh +Fattal, 27, crossed into Iranian territory nearly two months ago. Their families say they strayed across the border +accidentally. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad suggested in an interview with the American television network +NBC in September that the Americans' release might be linked to the release of Iranian diplomats he said were being +held by U.S. troops in Iraq. Under Iran's Islamic sharia law, espionage is punishable by death. +(Reporting by Ramin Mostafavi, Writing by Parisa Hafezi) +Original Message-- +From: Reines, Philippe I +Sent: Monday, November 09, 2009 8:44 AM +To: SES-O_SWO-Only +Cc: Sullivan, Jacob J; Abedin, Huma +Subject: Fw: Hikers +Do you have anything on the below? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765552 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765552 Date: 07/31/2015 +Original Message --- +From: Reines, Philippe I +To: Feltman, Jeffrey D; Crowley, Philip J; Kelly, Ian C +Cc: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Mon Nov 09 08:42:33 2009 +Subject: Hikers +The 3 detained hikers in Iran were charged with espionage? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765552 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3203,C05765556,IRAN RES UNGA,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-11-20T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_048/DOC_0C05765556/C05765556.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Fw: IRAN Res UNGA,H,"Abedin, Huma ","Anderson, Gerald C","Friday, November 20, 2009 12:19 PM",F-2014-20439,C05765556,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765556 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Friday, November 20, 2009 12:19 PM +To: H +Subject: Fw: IRAN Res UNGA +From: Brimmer, Esther D +To: Abedin, Huma; Sullivan, Jacob J; Macmanus, Joseph E +Cc: Anderson, Gerald C +Sent: Fri Nov 20 12:16:38 2009 +Subject: IRAN Res UNGA +Huma, Jake, Joe, +Here is the vote on the Iran human rights resolution at UNGA.

A +critical mass of influential people who once held big hopes for his presidency began to +wonder whether they had misjudged the man. Most significant, these doubters now find +themselves with a new reluctance to defend Obama at a phase of his presidency when he +needs defenders more urgently than ever. +This is the price Obama has paid with his complicity and most likely his active +participation, in the shabbiest episode of his presidency: The firing by leaks of White +House counsel Gregory Craig, a well-respected Washington veteran and influential early +supporter of Obama. +The people who are most aghast by the handling of the Craig departure can't be +dismissed by the White House as Republican partisans, or still-embittered Hillary Clinton +supporters. They are not naïve activists who don't understand that the exercise of power +can be a rough business and that trade-offs and personal disappointments are inevitable. +Instead, they are people, either in politics or close observers, who once held an +unromantically high opinion of Obama. They were important to his rise, and are likely +more important to the success or failure of his presidency than Obama or his distressingly +insular and small-minded West Wing team appreciate. +The Craig embarrassment gives these people a new reason — not the first or only reason +— to conclude that he wasn't the person of integrity and even classiness they had thought, +and, more fundamentally, that his ability to move people and actually lead a fractured and +troubled country (the reason many preferred him over Hillary Clinton) is not what had been +promised in the campaign. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765589 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765589 Date: 07/31/2015 +This may seem like a lot to hang on a Washington personnel move. After all, intramural +back-stabbing or making people fall guys when things go wrong (think Bill Clinton's +Defense Secretary Les Aspin after the disaster in Somalia) are not new to +Washingtonians. +But Craig's ouster did not occur in a vacuum. It served as a focal point to concerns that +have been building for months that Obama wasn't pressing for all that might be possible +within the existing political constraints (all that one could ask of a president); that his +presidential voice hadn't fulfilled the hopes raised by his campaign voice (which had also +taken him a while to find); that he hadn't created a movement, as he had raised +expectations that he would; that would be there to back him up and help him fulfill his +promises. +That is why it is worth pondering how the Craig story, unfolded in detail — its +consequences likely will echo far longer than anything Obama said or did in Asia. +Briefly, here's what happened, some of it told for the first time: Craig, who had known the +Clintons since they were all at Yale Law School together, had served as a senior adviser +to Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, but in 1998 gave up that job to help defend Bill +Clinton against impeachment. Yet in 2008, he supported Obama for the nomination — not +so much a turning against Hillary Clinton as being impressed early, as were some other +prominent Washingtonians, by the then-state senator but would-be U.S. Senate candidate +at a fundraiser held by Vernon Jordan, seeing Obama as the first potentially inspiring +Democratic figure since Robert Kennedy. In the course of the campaign, Craig wrote a +highly publicized memo questioning some of Hillary Clinton's claims of foreign policy +experience, such as coming under enemy fire in Tuzla, Bosnia. During the campaign, +Craig coached Obama for the debates (playing McCain), and praised him highly. Craig's +imprimatur helped the neophyte Obama in certain influential circles. +He hoped to get a high foreign policy position in an Obama administration, but when +Clinton was named secretary of state, this of course became untenable. The Clintons are +an unforgiving lot. So, Obama and Craig agreed that Craig would take the job of White +House counsel for a year, and then they'd discuss what he'd do next. Thus, Craig was +handed a very tricky portfolio. +During the transition, about mid-December, Craig presented to a group of the president's +newly named national security advisers meeting in Washington — including Clinton, +Defense Secretary Robert Gates, national security adviser General James Jones, and +others — three proposed executive orders: One ordered the shutting down of Guantanamo +in a year. (The others banned torture and closed down the C.I.A.'s ""black sites""; and +addressed future detainee policy.) The one-year target for closing Guantanamo resulted +from consultations with human rights and detainee rights groups, who argued that +Guantanamo could be shut down in three months, and with Pentagon officials, who had +no united position but argued that it would take from a year to 18 months. +At the meeting, only the newly named Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, +beamed in from Arizona, questioned whether a year was realistic. When Gates, as he +later confirmed publicly, said that though it was an ""ambitious"" deadline, he supported it +because setting it was the only way to get things, especially the bureaucracy, moving +toward that end, and that it could be extended if it couldn't be met, that was it. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765589 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765589 Date: 07/31/2015 +Obama's new national security team signed off on the executive order to close +Guantanamo in a year. This was passed along to the president as well as his top aides; +Craig was never in a meeting with the political side of the White House on the +Guantanamo matter — and the president-elect and then president raised no objection +before, when, or after he signed off on it. +Unsurprisingly, the deadline became hard to meet, for various legal and political reasons - +including the congressional outburst of NIMBYISM (similar to its earlier outbursts on Dubai +Ports and even Terri Schiavo — short-term, irrational, and politically motivated fits that +erupt from the Congress from time to time). If Craig failed to foresee this (as some later +charged), he had a lot of company. +The closing of Guantanamo is undoubtedly far further along than it would have been +without the executive order. But along the way, Craig fell out of favor with the president's +political aides and, apparently, the president himself. Whether he was simply being made +the fall guy, or the tight circle of Chicagoans in the White House didn't care for this +outsider, or he committed some unknown errors, suddenly, in August, leaks began to +surface that his job was in danger. Non-denial denials were issued from the White House. +The leaks became a pattern, a systematic, anonymous, tipping off of reporters that Craig +would soon be gone. +Craig was accused, anonymously of course, of a welter of charges: of being ""too close to +the human rights groups"" (if so, what was wrong with that?), of not playing well with +others, of being a bad manager, of being fixated on Guantanamo to the detriment of other +issues. In the summer, Obama offered Craig another job, which Craig declined, and the +two agreed that they would discuss the matter further later in the year. But the leaks +continued, and Craig decided that his situation was untenable, and he had to leave. +To make sure he did, he was leaked his way out, up to the day before he planned to +resign. What caused so many Obama supporters' stomachs to turn was that Obama could +have stopped the leaking at any time; he or White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel +could have arranged a dignified departure. (They're within their rights to get rid of +someone if they're dissatisfied, for good reasons or not — but a preferred route would be to +call that person in and ask what day would suit him or her to resign, and then just let that +person do it. This happens a lot in administrations; even if people don't believe the +resignation was voluntary, there's a soupcon of dignity left to that person.) Even some +Hillary Clinton supporters, who still hold no brief for Craig, think he was treated shabbily. +And this opinion is not confined to ""political junkies."" Thomas Wilner, a distinguished +Washington attorney who challenged Bush administration detainee policies, particularly on +Guantanamo, and had worked with Craig on these issues, told me, ""There's a lot of +concern among a lot of lawyers in this town, especially those who were supporting +Obama, that somebody this bright, this respected, this good, and with this integrity, was +treated in such a way."" +Yes, we knew, or should have, during the campaign that the supposed idealist Obama +had a bit of the Chicago cut-throat in him, but there was little sign that he could be as +brutal and heedless of loyalty as he was in the Craig affair. An unexpected climate of fear +emanates from the Obama White House. +The incident underscored worries that several had held about the Obama White House for +some time: that it was too tightly controlled and narrowly focused by the Chicago crowd; +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765589 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765589 Date: 07/31/2015 +that it seemed from the outset to need an older, wiser head, someone with a bit more +detachment. +The current crowd displays a certain impulsiveness and vindictiveness that do it no good - +as in the silly war-let on Fox News that it is now trying to back out of. Even if Craig was +making a hash of his job — and there's no independent evidence of this — it just wasn't +smart to treat someone widely held in such high respect in this manner; once again, the +impulsiveness backfired. +The replacing of Craig with Washington attorney Robert Bauer, Obama's own attorney for +years as well as counsel for the Democratic National Committee and the Obama +campaign, further narrowed the White House circle just when it needed broadening, +lowered the stature of the office, and choosing the president's personal attorney for a +position that calls for dispassionate judgment is hazardous. (Does anyone remember +Alberto Gonzalez?) +The Obama's themselves hang tight with a small Chicago crowd. Yes, he talks to others, +and yes, a president's time is very limited, but the Obama's themselves seem as closed- +off and unto themselves as does his inner White House circle. (Is this a coincidence? +What is all this wariness about?) When the Obama's go to someone's house for dinner, +almost invariably it's to that of Valerie Jarrett, the old friend from Chicago who serves as a +counselor and whom they see all day. Old Chicago friends fly in for weekends frequently. +Old friends, who had helped launch him, helped them personally, have been left behind. +At the same time as the Craig imbroglio happened, many people who had defended +Obama against charges that he wasn't what he'd been cracked up to be were now +becoming concerned themselves: though it was a relief to have a president who thought +through crucial decisions about sending the country's young to war, it was taking him +awfully long to make up his mind about what to do about Afghanistan and Pakistan, and +the decision-making was bafflingly leak-ridden (was this a deliberate airing of ideas or a +loss of control over the process?); that the health care debate had in fact careened out of +his control and it seemed less and less likely that, having used up almost a year of his +presidency on it (his ""deadlines"" had become irrelevant, and so, in a way, had he), he +would end up with a bill, if at all, that did enough net good. +Certain things are not his fault: the unprecedented truculence of the Republican Party, +scared silly by right-wing ranters on cable television; the unholy economic and foreign- +policy mess that he inherited; the fact that he never had, as so many liberal commentators +asserted, the 60 (or 58 or 59) Senate votes that would enable him to get what he wanted +from the Congress. It's not his fault that unemployment rates remain stubbornly high +following a traumatic recession. +And it's always risky to project the long-term from the moment. Perhaps this will prove to +have been a passing moment. Perhaps Obama will still salvage a health care bill that is a +real step forward (though there will be a humongous fight over its definition); maybe he'll +come up with a smart strategy — or the best of bad options — on Afghanistan and Pakistan; +it's not impossible that he'll add real progress on climate change and regulatory reform to +his list of achievements, and that he'll start to get the deficit under control. +Maybe there'll be enough examples of grace that will make people forget this period of +pettiness. He's been lucky before; maybe he'll get lucky again. Meanwhile, serious people +who had a lot of hope about him and who defended him are more worried than ever, and +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765589 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765589 Date: 07/31/2015 +in this if anything over-communicative society the White House can't write them off as ""a +bunch of Washington insiders.""

I realize that you are +traveling this week and possibly into next, but I wanted to reach out to you. As I wrote to you earlier, I am a director for +Symbion Power and may soon assume more direct responsibility for all of Africa as Symbion expands there from its +current operations in Iraq and Afghanistan. Symbion's competitive advantage is its reliance on local partnering and +human capacity development in the execution of its projects. Its success in the most difficult and dangerous +environments has been very impressive, as the four minute video that Sid gave to you on my behalf demonstrates. We +now want to bring that business model and philosophy to Africa where the social entrepreneurship and the development +of skilled labor is imperative for Africa's long term economic prospects, as you have so forcefully articulated in past +comments. +am very enthusiastic about Symbion. It is one or +the very few American companies outside the petroleum sector willing to establish itself and to undertake projects in +Africa. With our record of success elsewhere, we are certain that our approach to project development and execution will +mesh nicely with African needs and U.S. policy priorities. +Valerie, Trevor and Samantha join me in extending our best wishes to you, Bill, and Chelsea as we enter the holiday +season. +Joe +Ambassador Joseph Wilson +Director, Symbion Power +Email: joseph.wilsonsymbion-power.com +Tel.

When I +see a place where money can be saved, I don't waste time."" +Mr. Heyman also gave away money. In 1999, he founded the Partnership for Public Service, which provides fellowships +to encourage students to pursue careers in public service. For his charity work, Mr. Heyman won the President's Citizens +Award in 2008. +His other philanthropic interests included the establishment of the Samuel and Ronnie Heyman Center on Corporate +Governance at the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law. +He and his wife also collected art. Among their holdings are works by Mark Rothko and Jackson Pollock. +In addition to his wife, the former Ronnie Feuerstein, Mr. Heyman is survived by his mother, Annette Heyman of Palm +Beach, Fla.; four children, Lazarus Heyman, Eleanor Propp, Jennifer Millstone and Elizabeth Winter; and nine +grandchildren. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765646 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3218,C05765648,,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-11-10T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_047/DOC_0C05765648/C05765648.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Tuesday, November 10, 2009 1:52 PM",F-2014-20439,C05765648,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Confirmed wjc still in dem caucus lunch,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765648 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Tuesday, November 10, 2009 1:52 PM +To: H +Confirmed wjc still in dem caucus lunch +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765648 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3219,C05765650,RAJ SHAH,H,"Reines, Philippe I",170,2009-11-10T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_047/DOC_0C05765650/C05765650.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Raj Shah,,"Reines, Philippe I ",,"Tuesday, November 10, 2009 2:04 PM",F-2014-20439,C05765650,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"ill Ex-Gates Foundation exec named foreign aid chief +Obama administration picks former Gates Foundation official to run US foreign aid +By MATTHEW LEE +Associated Press +ij 11-10-2009 13:46 +11 SINGAPORE (AP) _ The Obama administration will nominate a young former executive with the Bill and +Melinda Gates Foundation to run America's top foreign assistance program, ending months of speculation +and complaints about who would take the vacant post, U.S. officials said Tuesday. +$ President Barack Obama has chosen Rajiv Shah, a medical doctor and currently a senior official at the +Department of Agriculture dealing with food security, to run the U.S. Agency for International +Development, the officials said. +¶ The officials spoke on condition of anonymity pending notification to Congress and a formal public +announcement of the choice. +11 Shah's selection, which must still be confirmed by the Senate, would end a 10-month leadership +vacuum at USAID, which has been operating with an acting director since Obama took office despite his +campaign pledges to have the agency play a greater role in foreign policy. +11 Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton have said USAID is crucial to deploying their +preferred ""smart power"" foreign policy strategy, which envisions more equal roles for diplomacy and +development alongside defense.

Hamas +announced the agreement this evening, saying it's intended to prevent Israeli retaliation and give Gaza residents more +stability. Hamas' interior minister says it should make it easier for residents to rebuild the infrastructure that was +destroyed in last winter's war with Israel. Hamas has mostly refrained from firing rockets since Israel's three-week +offensive ended in January. Some Gaza militant groups have continued with rocket attacks since the end of the war, but +they've been far less frequent. The latest came this morning, but it caused no injuries. A small faction affiliated with al- +Qaida claimed responsibility. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765673 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3230,C05765674,,"Mills, Cheryl D","Jiloty, Lauren C",116,2009-11-10T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_047/DOC_0C05765674/C05765674.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05765674,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"All did some quiet digging +See Ali's note below. +She wasn't able to get specifics, but it sounds as though it","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765674 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +All did some quiet digging +See Ali's note below. +She wasn't able to get specifics, but it sounds as though it +From: Rubin, All M +Sent: Tuesday, November 10, 2009 5:54 PM +To: Jiloty, Lauren C +Subject: +He did in fact pass away on Saturday and the circumstances are +is inconsolable, so it's better to call +Jiloty, Lauren C +Tuesday, November 10, 2009 6:08 PM +Mills, Cheryl D; Abedin, Huma; H +FW: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765674 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3231,C05765675,PERSONAL: AFGHANISTAN,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-11-21T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_048/DOC_0C05765675/C05765675.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Fw: Personal: Afghanistan,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Saturday, November 21, 2009 4:10 PM",F-2014-20439,C05765675,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Another note from milliband that he doesn't want to send through the system.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765675 Date: 07/31/2015 +Classified by DAS, A/GIS, DoS on 07/30/2015 — Class: +CONFIDENTIAL — Reason: 1.4(B), 1.4(D) — Declassify on: 11/21/2029 +RELEASE IN PART +B1,1.4(B),1.4(D),B6 +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Saturday, November 21, 2009 4:10 PM +To: H +Subject: Fw: Personal: Afghanistan +Another note from milliband that he doesn't want to send through the system. +From: Matthew Gould +To: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Sat Nov 21 14:10:55 2009 +Subject: Personal: Afghanistan +Hi Huma +1.4(B) +1.4(D) +B1 +I'm e-mailing you from my home account, as we're just back from Kabul.

We've drafted up a letter in response, and I believe it's with H right now. +We've had a near-constant dialogue with Baucus' office on this, and I'm afraid we haven't been able to, and aren't likely in +the near future, to satisfy them. +1) Development and environmental protection on the Flathead River is a long-running source of tension between Montana +and British Columbia. To protect the Flathead Basin, Sen. Baucus has long championed restrictions against development +on both sides of the border. +2) Over the years, the USG has worked closely with the Canadian federal government to ensure several Canadian +mining proposals were fully assessed for environmental impact. To date, the British Columbia provincial government has +not approved any mining proposals in the Flathead Basin—and there are no additional proposals on the horizon. +3) The Senator would like to see B.C. and Canada move toward a more permanent way to protect the region, rather than +having to battle each new mining proposal. For example, environmental NGOs advocate the Canadians establishing a +national park or other development moratorium. +4) While we certainly agree with that approach in principal, the problem is that under Canada's system, provincial +governments hold the authority over natural resource management. Therefore, even though the Canadian park +service likewise would favor a national park in the northern Flathead Basin, nothing can happen without the agreement of +the Province of British Columbia. +5) British Columbia has informed us that they see no need for broader, more permanent protections in the Flathead Basin, +and believe their environmental assessment process gives adequate protection against development-related threats. +6) Because of the federal-provincial dynamic in Canada, the Canadian federal government can't really compel British +Columbia to establish permanent protections in the Flathead Basin. +7) Glacier National Park and the Canadian Waterton Lakes National Park are U.N. World Heritage Sites. The U.N. World +Heritage committee recently sent a mission to the Flathead basin, to assess potential threats to the two national +parks. Their report is expected this month or next. The release of the report will provide us an opportunity to engage B.C. +and Canada again on the future of the Flathead region. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765688 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765688 Date: 07/31/2015 +So, we will use the release of the UN report to re-engage with both Canada and B.C. If we're lucky, perhaps the UN will +recommend the broader ""Baucus"" approach, and we might find we have more luck armed with that—but that's not at all +clear. In the meantime, we continue to reassure Baucus and staff that there is no/no planned development currently for +the area about which he's concerned. +I hope that helps, and sorry for slightly long-winded explanation.

I was particularly pleased to see that the Congressional Budget Office has estimated that the bill will +reduce the deficit by $127 billion over the next ten years and as much as $650 billion in the decade following, saving +hundreds of billions while extending coverage to 31 million more Americans. +From day one, our goal has been to enact legislation that offers stability and security to those who have insurance and +affordable coverage to those who don't, and that lowers costs for families, businesses and governments across the +country. Majority Leader Reid, Chairmen Baucus and Dodd, and countless Senators have worked tirelessly to craft +legislation that meets those principles. +Just yesterday, a bipartisan group of more than 20 leading health economists released a letter urging passage of +meaningful reform and praising four key provisions that are in the Senate legislation: a fee on insurance companies +offering high-premium plans, the establishment of an independent Medicare commission, reforms to the health care +delivery system, and overall deficit neutrality. The economists said that these provisions 'will reduce long-term deficits, +improve the quality of care, and put the nation on a firm fiscal footing.' Those are precisely the goals we should be +seeking to attain. +The challenges facing our health care system aren't new — but if we fail to act they'll surely get even worse, meaning +higher premiums, skyrocketing costs, and deeper instability for those with coverage. Today, thanks to the Senate's hard +work, we're closer than ever to enacting solutions to these problems. +I look forward to working with the Senate and House to get a finished bill to my desk as soon as possible."" +### +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765689 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3243,C05765691,HELP WITH BI-LATERAL NEGOTIATIONS WITH CANADA ON A SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES IN MONTANA,"Clinton, Hillary Rodham","Baucus, Max",141,2009-10-22T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_047/DOC_0C05765691/C05765691.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05765691,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765691 Date: 07/31/2015 +MAX BAUCUS +MONTANA +RELEASE IN FULL +WASHINGTON, DC +(2021224-2051 +MONTANA TOLL FREE NUMBER +1-EO-332-6106 +INTERNET: +max ellaticus.sonatu.gov +IIIII)Wwww.senoto.uov/-baucus +'United Mates e$Enate +WASHINGTON, DC 20510-2602 +October 22, 2009 +The Honorable Hillary Rodham Clinton +Secretary +.Department of State +2201 C Street NW +Washington, District of Columbia 20520 +Dear Secretary Clinton: +I write to request your help with bi-lateral negotiations with Canada on a significant environmental issue +in Montana.

The CBO estimates the total cost of the legislation is $848 billion. +Below please find a copy of the President's statement on the roll out of Reid's legislation: +STATEMENT FROM PRESIDENT OBAMA ON THE PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT +""Today we passed another critical milestone in the health reform effort with the release of the Patient Protection and +Affordable Care Act. I was particularly pleased to see that the Congressional Budget Office has estimated that the bill will +reduce the deficit by $127 billion over the next ten years and as much as $650 billion in the decade following, saving +hundreds of billions while extending coverage to 31 million more Americans. +From day one, our goal has been to enact legislation that offers stability and security to those who have insurance and +affordable coverage to those who don't, and that lowers costs for families, businesses and governments across the +country. Majority Leader Reid, Chairmen Baucus and Dodd, and countless Senators have worked tirelessly to craft +legislation that meets those principles. +Just yesterday, a bipartisan group of more than 20 leading health economists released a letter urging passage of +meaningful reform and praising four key provisions that are in the Senate legislation: a fee on insurance companies +offering high-premium plans, the establishment of an independent Medicare commission, reforms to the health care +delivery system, and overall deficit neutrality. The economists said that these provisions 'will reduce long-term deficits, +improve the quality of care, and put the nation on a firm fiscal footing.' Those are precisely the goals we should be +seeking to attain. +The challenges facing our health care system aren't new — but if we fail to act they'll surely get even worse, meaning +higher premiums, skyrocketing costs, and deeper instability for.those with coverage. Today, thanks to the Senate's hard +work, we're closer than ever to enacting solutions to these problems. +I look forward to working with the Senate and House to get a finished bill to my desk as soon as possible."" +### +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765692 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3245,C05765694,BLAIR,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-11-21T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_049/DOC_0C05765694/C05765694.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Re: Blair,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Saturday, November 21, 2009 9:07 PM",F-2014-20439,C05765694,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Yang on travel +Not free tonite. +May work tomorrow","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765694 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN +FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Saturday, November 21, 2009 9:07 PM +To: H +Subject Re: Blair +Yang on travel +Not free tonite. +May work tomorrow +Original Message ---- +From: H +To: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Sat Nov 21 19:51:49 2009 +Subject: Re: Blair +12:45 would be better for Blair.

Its author is a right-wing +Republican lawyer based in Richmond who also writes a column for Human Events. I disagree with the ideological and +partisan undercurrent of the piece, especially his overemphasis of the deficit as an overriding political factor rather than +the administration's lack of achievable results so far in improving the living standards of ordinary people. There is no +reason why the deficit shouldn't become a merely abstract factor once there are actual benefits delivered. The pattern of +the past is that the deficit, the talisman of Hoover Republicans, moves only partisan Republicans and that Democrats +ascend if the economy is progressing, its gains are widely spread and new social programs have favorable universal +impact. That is not happening now. This analysis, therefore, may be portentous. Worth reading. The electoral maps of VA +don't show up in the email but they are described. Sid +Return to the Article +November 13, 2009 +Can the Clinton Coalition Survive Obama? +By Sean Trende +John Judis and Ruy Teixeira's well-regarded 2002 work The Emerging Democratic Majority begins with a vignette set in +Virginia. They tell the story of a telecom executive named Mark Warner, who runs a moderate campaign that appeals to +upper-middle class suburbanites and working class rural voters, and manages to put together a winning coalition that, if +imitated in other states, might put the Democrats in power for decades to come. +Democrats did build coalitions similar to Warner's, and in fact had been doing so for the better part of a decade. Warner's +coalition was essentially Bill Clinton's 1996 coalition. The coalition and brand that Clinton built was an extraordinarily +successful one for Democrats, breaking the momentum of a resurgent GOP in 1996, and ultimately enabling the election +of the most liberal President in American History last year. +Given this background, it's only appropriate that the first tangible sign that this coalition is coming unglued has come in +Virginia. Republican Bob McDonnell won the governorship with almost 59% of the vote — the highest percentage (though +not the highest victory margin) for any governor since 1961. The entire Republican ticket won by similar margins, and the +GOP picked up six seats in the General Assembly. It could have been even worse — five Democrats won their Assembly +races by fewer than 1,000 votes. +There are some superficial lessons to be drawn here. After last week's election, it's silly to argue that the GOP brand is +too damaged for them to take advantage of Democratic weakness. And the Democrats' latest spin — that their weakness +among Independents was simply a function of more Republicans calling themselves independents but retaining their +Republican voting habits — puts the lie to the argument that Republicans' low self-identification is a salient factor in +elections. +But the most important lesson is this: while there's little predictive value in off-year elections, they do provide snapshots of +the mood of the electorate, and the present state of political coalitions. Given Virginia's primacy in the story of Democratic +coalition building, it gives us a good snapshot of the state of that coalition. And it's not a pretty one for Democrats. +The historical base of the Democratic Party for two centuries has long been what Jay Cost and I call Jacksonians: +Culturally conservative, hawkish, and populist whites located throughout the South and Border states. They began +breaking away from Democrats in the 1950s and 1960s — their reaction to the Party's embrace of unions, blacks and +liberals is a story is so well known there's no need to rehash it here. +But this group remained at least in play for the Democrats. Clinton inherited a coalition consisting of minorities, liberals, +urban voters, and a decent remnant of Jacksonian voters in the Ohio River Valley and the South, who still preferred a +moderate-to-conservative Democrat to a Republican. This coalition became a majority coalition when Clinton used a +combination of fiscal conservatism and social moderation to bring suburban voters on board. This was a huge innovation +for Democrats; suburbs like Nassau County, NY, Orange County, CA and Fairfax County, VA had fueled the rise of the +Republican parties in those states. Clinton moved them substantially toward his side. This coalition allowed him to win by +eight points in 1996; absent Perot and a last-minute fundraising scandal, he probably would have won by more. +Clinton intuited that suburban voters are, generally speaking, culturally cosmopolitan — they don't like it when you call +someone ""macaca,"" and aren't crazy about the religious right. But they're generally not particularly socially liberal either, +and are fans of ""law and order."" They like taxes low and appreciate economic growth, but like good schools and a clean +environment. Having to balance a bunch of spending priorities with somewhat limited income in their daily lives, balanced +budgets are the ultimate ""good government"" indicator for these voters. +Clinton delivered on all of these issues, keeping tax increases fairly small, and balancing the budget for much of his term. +In so doing — and this is very important — he re-branded the Democrats as the party of fiscal responsibility, economic +growth, moderate taxes, and smart government. In other words, he finally shed the ""Carter"" label for the Democrats. This, +in turn, made it plausible for his much more liberal heirs to benefit from this presumption of competence for Democrats - +one that they probably would not have enjoyed without him. +George W. Bush's presidency, in turn, was an upper-middle class suburbanite's nightmare. An aggressive social agenda, +a fiscal trainwreck, two poorly-managed wars and a financial collapse later, these suburban voters trended even more +heavily Democratic then they were in the Clinton era. By 2008, Democrats held most of the suburban districts around , +major metropolitan areas, and were threatening in the exurbs. The right Democratic candidate probably could have put +together a massive 2008 Presidential majority, combining minorities, liberals, Jacksonians, Catholics, and suburbanites. +The mood of the country was certainly right for a 1920/1932/1952/1980 result. +But the Democrats nominated Barack Obama. The party's grip among Jacksonians had weakened since Clinton left the +stage, but they abandoned Obama completely. Jay Cost and I have detailed this here. This movement is why Obama +received 53% of the vote, instead of the 60% or so we might expect given the voters' attitude toward Bush's Presidency. +Obama was able to win even without this branch of the Democratic party because he generated such intensity among the +remaining portions of his base. In other words, while his base wasn't as broad as Clinton's, it was deeper. Faced with +vanishing 401ks and home values, and disgust with Bush's presidency, suburbanites flocked to him. Liberals were +enthralled to finally elect one of their own. And minorities turned out heavily for the opportunity to elect the first black +President. +But this presents a problem. You only get to elect the first black President once, and governing a coalition of suburbanites, +poor blacks, and upper class liberals isn't easy. It is hard to keep that enthusiasm up. And with the Jacksonian wing of the +party gone, if that enthusiasm dissipates, or if one of the coalition groups becomes disgruntled and starts to shuffle out the +door, the party isn't left with much. +We see a microcosm of this story in last Tuesday's elections, especially in Virginia. Let's backtrack to 2001, and look at +the counties that Mark Warner won. +The coalition that Warner built was similar to Clinton's. To oversimplify some, it blended together rural Democrats in the +mining counties in the west of the state, college voters around Charlottesville, and black voters combined with rural whites +in the south central and southeastern portion of the state with suburban voters in the northeast. It was a diverse coalition, +but it worked. +Now let's compare Warner's map with Obama's map in 2008: +The suburbs stayed in the Democrat's camp, for reasons discussed above. But look what happens in the west! That area +becomes solidly Republican. Buchanan and Dickenson counties in the Virginia panhandle voted for Dukakis, Mondale, +and Adlai Stevenson (twice). Obama became only the second Democrat to lose these counties since the UMW moved in +during the 1920s. +As I said, this isn't a problem so long as (1) the Jacksonians show a willingness to come back for a candidate other than +Obama and/or (2) the suburbs continue their love affair with the Democrats. But we see indications in Virginia that the +Jacksonian divorce may, in fact, be permanent. Creigh Deeds was from the western section of the state, and seemed — at +least on paper — capable of remaking the Mark Warner map. It didn't happen, obviously. Let's look at how Virginia +changed from Bush's 2000 election to Deeds' loss last week: +The redder a county is, the more it moved toward the Republicans from 2000 to 2009; bluer counties moved toward +Democrats. +We see that McDonnell did as well as Bush did in the suburbs — but no better. Those pockets of white are the DC +suburbs in the northeast, the Hampton Roads area in the southeast, and Richmond just to the north and west of Hampton +Roads. Its rural Virginia — which is still about 1/3 of the electorate — that made the difference between Bush's 54% in +2004 and McDonnell's 59% on Tuesday. Even with Obama off the ticket, and a much less cosmopolitan figure atop the +ticket, rural Virginia went solidly Republican. +We can take another angle here. Deeds and McDonnell squared off in a very close Attorney General race in 2005. Let's +compare Deeds' 2005 showing to his 2009 performance. [NOTE: In this map, we look at ""relative movement."" Because +everything in the state moved toward McDonnell, a map just showing ""movement"" would be solid dark red, and not of +much use. So instead, if something moved more than 9 points toward McDonnell, it is colored a shade of red, if it moved +less than 9 points toward McDonnell, it is blue. Think of this as showing the change in the counties' PVI]. +We see the same result. Just since 2005, rural Virginia has moved sharply against the Democrats. The suburbs haven't +moved much at all, relative to the rest of the state, while the more heavily African American counties in the southern +portion of the state have moved a few notches leftward (in absolute terms, they voted in 2009 as they had in 2005). This +suggests lasting damage to the Democratic brand here that is not simply personal to Obama. +Now let's look at how McDonnell did when compared to McCain in 2008. Again, because the movement here was so +dramatic statewide, we need to isolate the biggest and smallest changes by looking only at ""relative"" shifts. +The western counties of the state didn't shift much from 2008, but that's because they were already giving Republicans +around 70% of the vote — there wasn't much room for Republican growth (and remember, ""blue"" in a relative map still +means slight movement toward the Republican since 2008)! The real Republican gains over the past year have come in +the DC exurbs, in the 1-95 corridor, and to a lesser extent in the Hampton Roads area. +In other words, the Jacksonians aren't returning to the Democrats, at least in Virginia. Deeds might still have been able to +win without them, but the Democrats are also showing weakness in the Virginia suburbs. In other words, two pieces of the +Clinton-Warner coalition are starting to break away. +This is a real problem for the Democrats. If the suburbanites and the Jacksonians move away from the party, there is +very, very little left for them. And there's reason to think that the suburban weakness is real. Obama's fiscal policy, to +make an understatement, hasn't been Clintonian. It may not be entirely his fault, but the $787 billion stimulus, the trillion +dollar healthcare bill, the automobile bailout, and the budget showing trillion dollar deficits extending for the next decade +make suburbanites shudder. They don't much like debt, and they intuit this spending is going to have to be paid for at +some point — probably by them. Voters still give Obama some benefit of the doubt, as they do most Presidents in their first +year, but they are becoming very, very worried, and probably don't put much stock in Candidate Obama's promise to +enact a net spending cut any more. +Democrats will doubtless chalk this up to Creigh Deeds' inept campaign. Deeds wasn't a great candidate, but when the +mood of the country is starting to swing against your party, it is hard to run a good campaign. Jerry Kilgore found this out +when he ran in a similar environment in 2005, and was reduced to attacking Tim Kaine for his religious views on the death +penalty. And if you run the Deeds-McDonnell race in 2006 or 2008, I think its hard to argue McDonnell would win by 18 +points, even holding everything else equal. +The other problem with this explanation is that we saw similar results replicated around the country. Most of the seats in +the House of Delegates that the Democrats lost in Virginia, or came close to losing, were suburban. The Philly suburbs +voted Republican for the state Supreme Court. Bergen County New Jersey didn't give the Republican 60% of the vote like +it did in 1984, but Chris Christie nearly carried it, and even though he is significantly more conservative than Christie Todd +Whitman or Tom Kean, he won the largest margin for a first-term Republican Governor since 1969. Conservative +Republicans won elections in Westchester County, New York, and Republicans picked up two City Council seats on the +outskirts of Queens. Republicans won back the Nassau County legislature -- the Democrats' capture of that body figures +prominently in the introduction to Emerging Democratic Majority -- and nearly defeated the Democratic County Executive +there with an obscure, underfunded candidate. In other words, in places that have never heard of Creigh Deeds or seen +his attack ads on McDonell's thesis, the Democrats still lost suburban voters. +States with a Democratic base of liberals, urbanites, and minority voters -- like California and New York -- haven't moved +much against Democrats. Obama's polling numbers, as well as those of Democratic candidates for Governor and +Senator, in classic ""Emerging Democratic Majority"" states like Colorado and Nevada are not looking good at all. And of +course in Jacksonian states like Kentucky, he's below 40%. +This doesn't mean that Democrats are doomed in 2010. An improved economy, Republican missteps, and a host of other +factors could keep the band together for them. Maybe some of the more marginal voters that Obama brought to the polls +to enact hope and change will return in 2010 to keep hope alive. But the personal nature of Obama's victory is starting to +show its downside for downticket Democrats. +The Clinton coalition is looking creaky.

Sid +Return to the Article +November 13, 2009 +Can the Clinton Coalition Survive Obama? +By Sean Trende +John Judis and Ruy Teixeira's well-regarded 2002 work The Emerging Democratic Majority begins with a vignette set in +Virginia. They tell the story of a telecom executive named Mark Warner, who runs a moderate campaign that appeals to +upper-middle class suburbanites and working class rural voters, and manages to put together a winning coalition that, if +imitated in other states, might put the Democrats in power for decades to come. +Democrats did build coalitions similar to Warner's, and in fact had been doing so for the better part of a decade. Warner's +coalition was essentially Bill Clinton's 1996 coalition. The coalition and brand that Clinton built was an extraordinarily +successful one for Democrats, breaking the momentum of a resurgent GOP in 1996, and ultimately enabling the election +of the most liberal President in American History last year. +Given this background, it's only appropriate that the first tangible sign that this coalition is coming unglued has come in +Virginia. Republican Bob McDonnell won the governorship with almost 59% of the vote — the highest percentage (though +not the highest victory margin) for any governor since 1961. The entire Republican ticket won by similar margins, and the +GOP picked up six seats in the General Assembly.

Gelb +November 22, 2009 I 10:50pm +The Asia trip was not worth Obama's time. Leslie H. Gelb on why the president should shake up his +foreign policy team—and make sure the deals are done before he leaves home. +President Obama's nine-day trip to Asia is worth a look back to fix two potent problems, past and future. First, the trip's +limited value per day of presidential effort suggests a disturbing amateurishness in managing America's power. On top of +the inexcusably clumsy review of Afghan policy and the fumbling of Mideast negotiations, the message for Mr. Obama +should be clear: He should stare hard at the skills of his foreign-policy team and, more so, at his own dominant role in +decision-making. Something is awry somewhere, and he's got to fix it. +Secondly, the Asia trip presented an important opportunity to carve out a new American leadership role in the world's +most dynamic economic region, and Mr. Obama missed it. He only scratched the surface in his calls for multilateralism +and mutual understanding. He needs to paint pictures of how Washington will help solve regional security and trade +problems. Otherwise, most Asian nations will continue their unwanted drift toward China and away from the United States. +A meditation on his journey should start by forgetting half of the last week's commentary. Unbelievably, some criticized +Obama for not getting China to ""throw its weight around."" What Asian leaders want that? None that I know of. Others +lamented that Obama couldn't make ""demands"" on China anymore. The presumption here is that China is now king, and +that Washington can no longer have its way with Beijing. The facts are that Washington never did boss Beijing around, +and that China is not now ruling the roost (more accurately, it's sitting on its own eggs). Others contended that Obama +continued his pattern of trashing America's friends and coddling its authoritarian enemies like China. It's hard to stomach +this nonsense from the same conservative crowd that forever praised George W. Bush for accommodating China and +alienating America's allies. +Some analysts played fair and acknowledged that administration officials tried to tell reporters not to expect ""deliverables"" +on the trip, and to see the journey more as a recognition of Asia's new importance and America's desire for a new co- +operative spirit. That's a commendable thought, but hardly justification for almost two weeks of the president's time (when +you consider preparations)— especially when he's got a tanking economy, health-care reform woes, and decisions to +make on Afghanistan. Presidents take trips like this one only when they need breakthroughs and accomplishments on +certain issues that can't be agreed on without the pressure of an impending presidential visit. In fact, most presidents +wouldn't even commit to trips abroad without knowing that key deals would be finally agreed on and announced during the +visit itself. The prospective visit is the power jackhammer to nail down the deals. Just take a gander at trips planned for +Richard Nixon by Henry Kissinger or for George H. W. Bush by James Baker. +Obama's travels were a chance to settle or make concrete progress on thorny issues like greenhouse-gas emissions, and +the fate of U.S. bases on Okinawa, which the new Japanese government insists on moving. It was time to announce ways +to gain fixes on the U.S.-South Korean trade treaty, long stalled in Congress. It was a moment to show that Beijing would +actually make some mutually beneficial compromises on exchange rates or economic sanctions against Iranian and North +Korean nuclear programs. Absent guarantees of progress on issues such as these, Mr. Obama should have taken a well- +deserved vacation in Hawaii. +Matters were made worse on the scene. It was not good optics for Obama to bow to Japan's emperor. He seems to do +this stuff spontaneously and inexplicably, as with his bow to the Saudi King some months ago. And it was truly unfortunate +that Obama and his aides didn't flatly insist that he be allowed to address the Chinese people directly on television and +meet with non-stacked Chinese groups—as has been the case during previous presidential visits. Beijing's leaders +obviously didn't feel confident enough of their own standing at home to give the popular Mr. Obama such access. But he +and his team should have made it a precondition of the visit. Its absence left an unhappy taste. +The Asia trip presented an important opportunity to carve out a new American leadership role in the world's most dynamic +economic region, and Mr. Obama missed it. +The White House might try to blame the State Department (such an easy and delicious target) for the missteps. But +State's role in the conceptual planning of the trip was not central, and the department's senior Asia hand, Kurt Campbell, +surely knew better.

If Mr. Obama reflects on the Asia +journey and other mishaps, he might loosen the reins and bring in additional policy and diplomatic pros as inside +counselors or outside advisers. +If most Asia hands inside and outside the government had designed the Obama trip, here's what they would have +advised: Go beyond the usual and trite message of building mutual understanding and cooperation, and stop invoking the +God of Multilateralism without spelling out America's leadership role. Asia is now overflowing with multilateral +organizations. Washington is a member of a few key ones, like Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation and the Asian +Development Bank. But that has little to do with other new and key groupings such as the Shanghai Cooperation +Organization (Russia, China, Uzbekistan, etc.) and ASEAN, the association of Southeast Asian nations. Asian nations are +increasingly organizing themselves into these groups, and Washington hasn't really figured out its role. Most Asian +nations want that role to be a prominent one—in fact, the leadership position. They're afraid of China, afraid that China +won't be as attentive to their concerns in the future as America was in the past. At the same time, they don't want +Washington to come into these groupings and cause problems with Beijing. They want Washington to figure out a +leadership position constructed on the proven American ability to help solve common problems in the common interest. +They want an America they remember, one that can get things done and doesn't let problems fester. +That U.S. policy was the main missing ingredient on Obama's trip. Washington played architect and solidified its +leadership in Europe after World War II with NATO, the Marshall Plan, and various trade and economic organizations like +the World Bank. Asian nations are yearning for the same kind of creativity today from a brilliant American president in the +new Pacific Era. +Leslie H. Gelb, a former New York Times columnist and senior government official, is author of Power Rules: How +Common Sense Can Rescue American Foreign Policy (HarperCollins 2009), a book that shows how to think about and +use power in the 21st century.

The facts are that Washington never did boss Beijing around, +and that China is not now ruling the roost (more accurately, it's sitting on its own eggs). Others contended that Obama +continued his pattern of trashing America's friends and coddling its authoritarian enemies like China. It's hard to stomach +this nonsense from the same conservative crowd that forever praised George W. Bush for accommodating China and +alienating America's allies. +Some analysts played fair and acknowledged that administration officials tried to tell reporters not to expect ""deliverables"" +on the trip, and to see the journey more as a recognition of Asia's new importance and America's desire for a new co- +operative spirit. That's a commendable thought, but hardly justification for almost two weeks of the president's time (when +you consider preparations)— especially when he's got a tanking economy, health-care reform woes, and decisions to +make on Afghanistan. Presidents take trips like this one only when they need breakthroughs and accomplishments on +certain issues that can't be agreed on without the pressure of an impending presidential visit. In fact, most presidents +wouldn't even commit to trips abroad without knowing that key deals would be finally agreed on and announced during the +visit itself. The prospective visit is the power jackhammer to nail down the deals. Just take a gander at trips planned for +Richard Nixon by Henry Kissinger or for George H. W. Bush by James Baker. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765761 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765761 Date: 07/31/2015 +Obama's travels were a chance to settle or make concrete progress on thorny issues like greenhouse-gas emissions, and +the fate of U.S. bases on Okinawa, which the new Japanese government insists on moving. It was time to announce ways +to gain fixes on the U.S.-South Korean trade treaty, long stalled in Congress. It was a moment to show that Beijing would +actually make some mutually beneficial compromises on exchange rates or economic sanctions against Iranian and North +Korean nuclear programs. Absent guarantees of progress on issues such as these, Mr. Obama should have taken a well- +deserved vacation in Hawaii. +Matters were made worse on the scene. It was not good optics for Obama to bow to Japan's emperor. He seems to do +this stuff spontaneously and inexplicably, as with his bow to the Saudi King some months ago. And it was truly unfortunate +that Obama and his aides didn't flatly insist that he be allowed to address the Chinese people directly on television and +meet with non-stacked Chinese groups—as has been the case during previous presidential visits. Beijing's leaders +obviously didn't feel confident enough of their own standing at home to give the popular Mr. Obama such access. But he +and his team should have made it a precondition of the visit. Its absence left an unhappy taste. +The Asia trip presented an important opportunity to carve out a new American leadership role in the world's most dynamic +economic region, and Mr. Obama missed it. +The White House might try to blame the State Department (such an easy and delicious target) for the missteps. But +State's role in the conceptual planning of the trip was not central, and the department's senior Asia hand, Kurt Campbell, +surely knew better. It's also hard to tar the National Security Council's own senior Asia expert, Jeff Bader, another pro like +Campbell. Perhaps even higher officials at the NSC dropped the ball. Perhaps Mr. Obama might take responsibility +himself, as President Kennedy did after the Bay of Pigs fiasco in 1961. Now, that would truly clear the air—and open the +door to some obvious and necessary changes in the administration's decision-making machinery. Every decision, large +and small, is shaped and made by the president himself and enforced by Denis McDonough, a deputy NSC adviser and +the administration's Lord High Executioner. Does Obama get enough pushback? Is he hearing a range of views? Can he +see that his powerful intellect might profit from bowing to the voices of experience? If Mr. Obama reflects on the Asia +journey and other mishaps, he might loosen the reins and bring in additional policy and diplomatic pros as inside +counselors or outside advisers. +If most Asia hands inside and outside the government had designed the Obama trip, here's what they would have +advised: Go beyond the usual and trite message of building mutual understanding and cooperation, and stop invoking the +God of Multilateralism without spelling out America's leadership role. Asia is now overflowing with multilateral +organizations. Washington is a member of a few key ones, like Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation and the Asian +Development Bank. But that has little to do with other new and key groupings such as the Shanghai Cooperation +Organization (Russia, China, Uzbekistan, etc.) and ASEAN, the association of Southeast Asian nations. Asian nations are +increasingly organizing themselves into these groups, and Washington hasn't really figured out its role. Most Asian +nations want that role to be a prominent one—in fact, the leadership position. They're afraid of China, afraid that China +won't be as attentive to their concerns in the future as America was in the past. At the same time, they don't want +Washington to come into these groupings and cause problems with Beijing. They want Washington to figure out a +leadership position constructed on the proven American ability to help solve common problems in the common interest. +They want an America they remember, one that can get things done and doesn't let problems fester. +That U.S. policy was the main missing ingredient on Obama's trip. Washington played architect and solidified its +leadership in Europe after World War II with NATO, the Marshall Plan, and various trade and economic organizations like +the World Bank. Asian nations are yearning for the same kind of creativity today from a brilliant American president in the +new Pacific Era. +Leslie H.

I am especially grateful to the Secretary for the confidence she has shown in me, and her +willingness to make me part of her team. I consider this an enormous honor and I hope that I have met her +expectations. I look forward to continuing to be part of her team from Brazil. +I am preparing a ""Last Thoughts"" paper for the Secretary, which will look back over the past ten months, identify +accomplishments, and point toward what I think needs to come next. I will share this paper with Arturo. +Regarding Honduras, Craig did heroic work there this week, and we are moving toward a potentially big step by +Micheletti that would open space for many of our allies to support the elections. As we move forward, it is important to +note that the solution to the crisis is becoming more and more Honduran with each step in the process. This is a good +thing, because it increases the chances that the resolution will be peaceful, enduring, and a platform for the political +reforms that must come next. +It is worth highlighting that the Secretary, through her outreach to both sides and her clear commitment to the future of +Honduran democracy, has positioned us as an honest broker in this dispute. The only honest broker. Everyone one else +in this drama -- from Insulza to the Brazilians to the Albinos -- has other agendas and motives in play. In this regard, we +are the only hope of the Honduran people. The internal dialogue taking place, within the de facto regime, among its +supporters, and between the Micheletti and Zelaya camps, is the product of our engagement. No one else could have +done this. I urge that you keep this in mind as we move forward and as we consider how we will support the November +29 elections. +Finally, I leave behind a great Bureau. I believe it is the best in the State Department. Craig and the other DASes are +superb, and I believe we have an extraordinary cadre of Ambassadors. This is a huge resource for the Secretary and the +President. Use it. +Again, my deepest thanks to you and the Secretary. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765762 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3275,C05765763,REMINDER,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-11-14T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_048/DOC_0C05765763/C05765763.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Reminder,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Saturday, November 14, 2009 5:00 PM",F-2014-20439,C05765763,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"roy spence asked if u would say hello and take a picture with his friends.

Four, in particular, stand out, and +it is important to identify them as myths to avoid misunderstandings that could adversely influence policy decisions. The +fact that China has become the largest foreign holder of U.S. government securities is taken as indicating that the United +States is heavily dependent on China to finance its budget deficits. Similarly, since China is a major source for U.S. +imports, U.S. consumers are seen as dependent on cheap Chinese goods. In addition, the Chinese authorities have +emphasized that they strongly resist external pressures to try to influence policy decisions and that economic instability in +China is bad, with adverse implications for the rest of the world. +Taken together, these four myths could lead to the conclusion that China should not be pushed hard by the United States +(or other major countries) to more quickly change its policies, especially its exchange rate policy, to facilitate the +rebalancing of its economy. But such a conclusion would be a major mistake, and that is why during his trip to Asia, +President Barack Obama needs to dispel these myths and bring pressure to bear for faster economic policy changes in +China. This would be in keeping with the objectives for dealing with global imbalances laid out by the G-20 summit in +Pittsburgh in September 2009. +Myth No. 1: Washington has limited leverage because China is the main ""banker"" for the United States +China holds a large amount of U.S. government securities. Of China's $2.3 trillion in official reserves, it is estimated that +70 percent is held in U.S. dollar assets. China is a big customer for U.S. debt, but it is not America's banker. Nor is the +United States dependent on China to finance its budget deficits. If China elects not to buy U.S. Treasuries, there are other +willing public and private sector buyers, as indicated by the strong demand for these securities worldwide. Although the +U.S. government might have to pay higher interest rates as an incentive to get other investors to buy Treasuries in the +event that the Chinese reduce their demand, the increase in interest rates would likely be small. +Major consequences from a decision by China to reduce its purchases of U.S. Treasury securities would depend on the +reason behind the decision. It would be in China's best interest (and beneficial for the rest of the world as well) if China +reduced its purchases of U.S. Treasuries because it decided to stop heavily managing its exchange rate and allow greater +flexibility in the currency's movements. This is an important policy change that is required if China is going to rebalance its +economy and be able to sustain rapid growth. +China is a big customer for U.S. debt, but it is not America's banker. Nor is the United States dependent on China to +finance its budget deficits. +If instead China continues to heavily manage its exchange rate, it will build up large additional amounts of official +reserves. If it decides to hold less of these additional reserves in U.S. Treasury securities, then China will increase its +purchases of assets denominated in other currencies, with euro-denominated securities being the most likely alternative. +In these circumstances, China would continue to intervene in its exchange market, with the central bank buying U.S. +dollars for Chinese renminbi and then selling dollars for euro to acquire European assets. The result would be an +appreciation of the euro. Consequently, countries in Europe, not the United States, would probably be most affected by +China's move because the negative impact of euro appreciation on European economic activity would likely far outweigh +the effects on the United States of smaller Chinese purchases of Treasuries. +Alternatively, China could choose to start dumping its stock of U.S. securities. The result would be appreciation of other +major currencies (depending on where China would decide to park its reserve assets); upward pressure on U.S. interest +rates; and the possibility of financial market disruptions if China dumped its U.S. dollar assets rapidly. However, the U.S. +Federal Reserve could limit the rise in U.S. interest rates and would be able to ensure adequate liquidity to prevent market +disruptions. But a decision to dump Treasuries would have a large effect on China itself. The country would incur a +substantial capital loss on its reserve assets. The Chinese authorities are deeply concerned about such a loss, and are +very unlikely to decide to dump U.S. assets. In fact, the discussion initiated by China regarding the need for an alternative +official reserve asset is motivated by its concerns about potential losses on its U.S. dollar holdings. +Myth No. 2: The United States is heavily dependent on cheap Chinese goods +This is not really true. Only roughly 15 percent of U.S. imports come from China. Moreover, all of the basic types of +manufactured consumer goods that China exports to the United States (clothing, textiles, footwear, toys, small appliances, +etc.) can be imported from other countries or could be produced domestically. The prices for goods that could substitute +for products from China would be higher, but the difference in costs would be relatively small. Competition among +producers has become fiercer, and as a result cost differentials between goods from China and other suppliers are +narrowing. +Dependence actually runs the other way. China is highly dependent on U.S. demand for its products. Economic growth in +China is heavily dependent on exports. Although China has been able to achieve its 8 percent GDP growth target in 2009 +owing to the stimulus to domestic demand provided by government policy actions, the country will struggle to meet this +objective in 2010 and succeeding years if demand for its exports in the United States does not pick up. +Myth No. 3: External pressure on China for policy changes is counterproductive. +The Chinese authorities stress that in the face of external pressure, they tend to strongly resist economic policy changes. +The Chinese have in particular used this argument to try to fend off pressures for appreciation of the exchange rate. While +no country wants to appear to be weak and susceptible to external pressure, the truth is that, if there is no pressure, there +is less incentive to change policy. This is especially true in China, where the authorities are wedded to the status quo +because of past success and inclined to make only gradual changes to economic policies. Recent developments in +China's exchange rate illustrate this point. In the absence of external pressure since August 2008, China has reverted to +fixing its exchange rate relative to the U.S. dollar. +Without a hard push from the United States on a bilateral and multilateral basis, changes in China's policies are likely to +be delayed, and that is not in the best interest of the United States and the rest of the world. +Myth No. 4: Instability is bad for China +Chinese authorities also have suggested that instability in China is bad for the rest of the world because of adverse effects +on China's growth rate. But instability (or the fear of instability) has played a big role in initiating economic policy changes +in China. For example, concern about instability arising from the growing gap between urban and rural incomes has been +a major factor behind new initiatives to develop China's interior (such as the Develop the West program) and to improve +conditions and opportunities for the rural population (including breaking down restrictions and discriminatory treatment of +migrant workers). Hence, for China, instability is not necessarily bad, but it is a problem for the authorities. Instability in +China also is not necessarily bad for the rest of the world because of its effect on China's growth. Although China +accounts for a significant portion of world GDP growth, the country does not generate much demand for products from +other countries given China's large trade and current account surpluses. Some countries in Asia and commodity +producers may be benefiting from China's strong growth, but overall, it is not providing much stimulus for the world +economy as a whole, so slower growth in China will have little effect on economic activity in the rest of the world. +It is important for President Obama to separate fact from myth in his economic policy discussions with the Chinese +authorities during this trip to Asia to build a sounder relationship. The president should not shy away from pushing the +Chinese hard on economic reform and rebalancing of China's economy, but this should be done in his private discussions +with China's senior leaders. Multilateral discussions, such as those in the context of the G-20 process, are a much more +effective forum for the United States to take a public stance on China's economic policies jointly with other major +economies. +Without a hard push from the United States on a bilateral and multilateral basis, changes in China's policies are likely to +be delayed, and that is not in the best interest of the United States and the rest of the world. It also is not in the best +interest of China, because without a shift away from heavy dependence on investment and exports to drive growth toward +greater reliance on consumption, China will not be able to sustain rapid economic growth and development. Getting China +to fully realize this and to act more quickly than the authorities are inclined to do is a considerable task for the United +States and other major economies.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765795 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: sbwhoeop +Sent: Tuesday, November 17, 2009 9:41 AM +To: +Subject: FYI: This CFR analysis clears away fundamental misperceptions on US-China.

Getting China +to fully realize this and to act more quickly than the authorities are inclined to do is a considerable task for the United +States and other major economies. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765795 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3295,C05765796,WHERE ARE YOU?,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2009-11-17T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_048/DOC_0C05765796/C05765796.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Where are you?,,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Tuesday, November 17, 2009 9:19 AM",F-2014-20439,C05765796,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Corning,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765796 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Tuesday, November 17, 2009 9:19 AM +To: +Subject Re: Where are you? +Corning +Original Message +From: H +To: Sullivan, Jacob +Sent: Tue Nov 17 09:17:12 2009 +Subject: Where are you? +I'm in the restaurant on the first floor.

Would you pass it +to her? Thanks. +U.S. offers new role for Pakistan +A BROADER PARTNERSHIP +Importance of country to Afghan effort recognized +By Karen DeYoung +Washington Post Staff Writer +Monday, November 30, 2009 +President Obama has offered Pakistan an expanded strategic partnership, including additional military and +economic cooperation, while warning with unusual bluntness that its use of insurgent groups to pursue policy +goals ""cannot continue."" +The offer, including an effort to help reduce tensions between Pakistan and India, was contained in a two-page +letter delivered to President Asif Ali Zardari this month by Obama national security adviser James L. Jones. It +was accompanied by assurances from Jones that the United States will increase its military and civilian efforts +in Afghanistan and that it plans no early withdrawal. +Obama's speech Tuesday night at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., will address primarily the +Afghanistan aspects of the strategy. But despite the public and political attention focused on the number of new +troops, Pakistan has been the hot core of the months-long strategy review. The long-term consequences of +failure there, the review concluded, far outweigh those in Afghanistan. +""We can't succeed without Pakistan,"" a senior administration official involved in the White House review said. +""You have to differentiate between public statements and reality. There is nobody who is under any illusions +about this."" +This official and others, all of whom spoke about the closely held details of the new strategy on the condition of +anonymity, emphasized that without ""changing the nature of U.S.-Pakistan relations in a new direction, you're +not going to win in Afghanistan,"" as one put it. ""And if you don't win in Afghanistan, then Pakistan will +automatically be imperiled, and that will make Afghanistan look like child's play."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765810 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765810 Date: 07/31/2015 +Proffered U.S. carrots, outlined during Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's October visit to Islamabad, +center on a far more comprehensive and long-term bilateral relationship. It would feature enhanced +development and trade assistance; improved intelligence collaboration and a more secure and upgraded military +equipment pipeline; more public praise and less public criticism of Pakistan; and an initiative to build greater +regional cooperation among Pakistan, India and Afghanistan. +Obama called for closer collaboration against all extremist groups, and his letter named five: al-Qaeda, the +Afghan Taliban, the Haqqani network, Lashkar-e-Taiba, and the Pakistani Taliban organization known as +Tehrik-e-Taliban. Using vague diplomatic language, he said that ambiguity in Pakistan's relationship with any +of them could no longer be ignored. +Jones, a retired Marine Corps general, was more precise in conversations with top Pakistani government and +military leaders, U.S. and foreign officials said, stating that certain things have to happen in Pakistan to ensure +Afghanistan's security. If Pakistan cannot deliver, he warned, the United States may be impelled to use any +means at its disposal to rout insurgents based along Pakistan's western and southern borders with Afghanistan. +Current U.S. policy includes the use of missiles fired from unmanned drones on insurgent locations limited to +roughly 50 miles inside the western border; training in two military camps for the Pakistani Frontier Corps; and +intelligence exchanges. It prohibits kinetic, or active, operations by U.S. ground forces inside Pakistan. +While praising Pakistani military offensives against groups that pose a domestic threat -- primarily the alliance +of groups known as Tehrik-e-Taliban, in the Swat Valley and South Waziristan -- Jones made it clear that the +administration expects more. +The rollout of the new strategy is being coordinated with principal U.S. allies, including Britain, whose prime +minister, Gordon Brown, said Sunday, ""People are going to ask why, eight years after 2001, Osama bin Laden +has never been near to being caught."" +""Al-Qaeda has a base in Pakistan,"" Brown said in an interview with Sky News. ""That base is still there -- they +are able to recruit from abroad. The Pakistan authorities must convince us that they are taking all the action that +is necessary to deal with that threat."" +Expansion of the U.S.-Pakistan relationship will require overcoming significant public and political mistrust in +both countries. Officials said that they recognize the difficulty in delivering on either U.S. promises or threats, +and that ""our leverage over Pakistan is very limited,"" the senior administration official said. +At the same time, although the administration's goal is to demonstrate a new level and steadfastness of support, +short-term U.S. demands may threaten Pakistan's already fragile political stability. +""It's going to be a game of cat-and-mouse with them for a while,"" another official said, adding that ""what we're +trying to do is to force them to recalculate"" where their advantage lies. +The Pakistan strategy is complicated by a number of factors, including the fact that any indication of increased +U.S. involvement there generates broad mistrust. Zardari's political weakness is an additional hazard for a new +bilateral relationship. He is disliked by the military and is challenged by the political opposition and his own +prime minister; he also remains under a cloud of long-standing corruption charges. Less than a third of +Pakistan's population voices approval for him in polls. Obama is even less popular there, with approval ratings +in the low double digits. +Many of the broad powers that Zardari assumed from his predecessor, Gen. Pervez Musharraf, who seized +power in a 1999 military coup and was forced to resign last year, are being whittled away. On Friday, Zardari +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765810 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765810 Date: 07/31/2015 +turned over control of Pakistan's nuclear arsenal to Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani, who is held in much +higher favor by the military. +Zardari's Musharraf-era powers to fire the elected government and appoint top military officials are also under +challenge, and a law protecting government officials from corruption prosecution expired Saturday. On Sunday, +the leading political opposition group called for him to give up the additional powers, and Zardari, who had +pledged to do so, said he will act ""soon."" The administration expects Zardari's position to continue to weaken, +leaving him as a largely ceremonial president even if he manages to survive in office. +Senior U.S. officers, including the Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman, Adm. Mike Mullen, have made repeated +relationship-building trips to Pakistan, and training programs in this country for Pakistani officers are expanding +after being moribund for years. +U.S. officials have long referred to Pakistani military and intelligence officers who are sympathetic to or +actively support insurgent groups fighting in Afghanistan as ""rogue elements."" More recently, they have +described those relationships as more direct and institutional within a divided military. ""For the things that we +care about,"" a U.S. official said, ""the real decision-maker is the military."" It has long been hedging its bets in +Afghanistan; the military has positioned itself to prevent inroads by India in the event of a U.S. withdrawal, and +against a 30-year history of being used and then rejected by shifting U.S. policy aims. +""Our game is to convince them that our commitment to Afghanistan and the region is long-term,"" the official +said of the military. ""We're not going to pack up our bags and leave them as soon as we're done. We have to +create a situation in which they see a much more positive interest in closer relations with us than they do in +trying to play us. But it requires time."" +India is skeptical of any U.S. involvement in its relationship with Pakistan. Bilateral attempts to resolve the +long-standing border dispute in Kashmir were put on hold after last year's terrorist attacks in Mumbai, which +were blamed on Lashkar-e-Taiba. +The group has long been active in the Kashmir conflict and is said to have close ties to Pakistan's Inter-Services +Intelligence agency. +Obama and Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh treaded carefully on the issue in public during Singh's state +visit to Washington last week. ""It is not the place of the United States to try to, from the outside, resolve all +those conflicts,"" Obama said during their news conference here. ""On the other hand, we want to be encouraging +of ways in which both India and Pakistan can feel secure."" +Correspondent Pamela Constable in Islamabad contributed to this report. +David S.

Lopez was widely known as a volunteer for organizations +advocating HIV prevention and gay rights, and activists are planning remembrance vigils for him in cities +including San Juan, New York and Chicago. +The suspect, 26-year-old Juan Martinez Matos, was arrested earlier this week and allegedly confessed to killing +Lopez and mutilating his body. He was charged with first-degree murder and weapons violations and jailed on +$4 million bond. +An attorney for Martinez could not immediately be reached for comment. +Martinez met Lopez while looking for women Thursday night in an area known for prostitution, according to +prosecutor Jose Bermudez Santos. Bermudez said the suspect confessed to stabbing Lopez, who was dressed as +a woman, after discovering he was a man. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765871 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765871 Date: 07/31/2015 +""He has a deep-seated rage,"" Bermudez said in remarks reported by the newspaper El Nuevo Dia. +""All the information we have is very clear that this is indeed a hate crime,"" said Pedro Julio Serrano, a Puerto +Rico native who is a spokesman for the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force. +A 2002 hate crime law in this U.S. territory has not been applied to any cases involving sexual orientation or +gender identity despite calls to use it more aggressively, Serrano said. A suspect convicted of a hate crime +offense as part of another crime automatically faces the maximum penalty for the underlying crime. For murder, +that would be life in prison. +Serrano said he has identified at least 10 slayings on the island over the last seven years that should have been +investigated as hate crimes, including some in which the victims were sex workers. +Two U.S. Congress members from New York, who are of Puerto Rican origin, have suggested prosecuting the +case under new federal hate crimes legislation that extended coverage to sexual orientation. President Barack +Obama signed it last month. +The FBI is monitoring the investigation, and Lymarie Llovet Ayala, a spokeswoman for the U.S. attorney's +office in San Juan, said Wednesday that federal prosecutors are considering whether to take on the case. +Puerto Rico has some history of violence against gays. In the 1980s, the island was terrorized by serial killer +Angel Colon Maldonado, known as ""The Angel of the Bachelors,"" who was linked to the murders of 27 +homosexual people and is serving life in prison. +But the island also is known as a welcoming place for gays, particularly in comparison with more socially +conservative Caribbean islands where homosexuals often live in hiding. +""The people of Puerto Rico are very inclusive and accepting of differences,"" said Serrano. ""I think these kinds +of crimes show the ugly side of homophobia, but it's a minority of people that are willing to be so violent in +expressing their prejudice,"" +Serrano said a protest against homophobia was planned for Thursday outside Puerto Rico's Capitol. +Copyright © 2009 The Associated Press.

Jane Harman +In rnr.. +.ent weeks, prominent American politicians and columnists have begun debating troop levels in +Afghanistan. Some call for a complete withdrawal, while others favor increasing the number of U.S. troops. +The size of U.S. forces in Afghanistan is a critical issue, but a debate about troop strength misses the point. +Unless and until one other problem is addressed, neither more troops nor fewer troops will reverse the tide of +terrorism being fomented in Afghanistan or improve our national security. +It I he corruption, sturici. +Eliminating corruption in Afghanistan is in both that nation's interest and ours.

That is our real objective. +Wrion I traveled tc P..tgrianistan in April with Sen.

Pervasive corruption infects all levels of the Afghan government. Tribal elders in +Kandahar told us they were so fed up with the Karzai government that they would join the Taliban if better +governance could not be achieved. +This election is a chilling reminder of what's at stake. Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal appears to understand this. +His emphasis on joint civilian-military efforts to improve governance is much needed, but the American people +deserve some accountability. Congress should not even be asked about more troops without first being shown +evidence that some anti-corruption metrics have been achieved, not just announced. +The U.S. military's mission will be undermined so long as the Afghan government fails to govern. That's what's +happening right now. +A recent poll found 83 percent of Afghans think their country needs to change direction. Lowering that +disapproval number should be a key ingredient in any measure of governance; public opinion is essential in +judging whether the government .ass earned the people's trust. That's what a successful counterinsurgency effort +is really about: giving Afghans faith in their institutions and developing a willingness to cooperate with and +protect them. Public opinion should be gauged on a province-by-province basis to help assess where +government is sneceeding and w!nere it is not. +But change mast start at the top. If the sham election stands and Mr. Karzai remains president, he must +drastically ehange his personal poiiLics. He has preserved his position of power through a series of politically +expedient bur. morally repugnant alliances. This includes turning a blind eye to Helmand province, where his +brother, A:hiller' Vv al Karzai, has became a legendary and detested figure.

The world has +changed, with everyone from politicians to talking heads to terrorists directly influencing global audiences. The most +pressing issues are stateless: pandemics, recession, terrorism, poverty, proliferation, and conflict. But as report after +report, investigation after investigation, has highlighted, the State Department is broken and paralyzed, unable to +respond to the new 21st-century paradigm. +But how did it get so bad? Is it possible to fix? Or should we just push it over the wall like a great Humpty Dumpty and +reassign the pieces? +There is growing evidence that the internal machinations of the State Department have corrupted its ""core missions"" of +traditional diplomacy and public diplomacy. This year, for example, the Government Accountability Office (gao) found +that the department completely failed in its now four-year-old attempt to reorganize its nonproliferation bureau (a +bureau that remains leaderless). Besides failing to address mission overlap, low morale, and lack of career opportunities, +the failed reorganization caused a significant drop in expertise in offices focused on proliferation issues -- including +""today's threats posted by Iran, North Korea, and Syria,"" the gao's report said -- and coordination with bodies like the +International Atomic Energy Agency. +Another report by the State Department's inspector general this year described severe and broad dysfunction within the +Africa bureau, while ignoring -- perhaps considering it a given -- the lack of departmentwide integration and leadership +in operations. Examples of the dysfunction range from not providing public diplomacy personnel with computers +capable of reading interoffice memos to a failure to effectively work with the new Africa Command. +By necessity, the Defense Department has stepped in where State Department has tuned out: Foggy Bottom relies on +Pentagon funding and even personnel for basic operations central to its mission. For example, the Defense Department +now performs much strategic communications work traditionally the purview of the State Department. In Somalia, for +example, the State Department's budget for public diplomacy is $30,000. The Pentagon's is $600,000. And, in the State +Department's bureaucratic wisdom, the $30,000 does not even belong to its undersecretary for public diplomacy and +public affairs. +Further, rivalries between the different ""cones"" -- or career tracks, referred to by one insider as the ""conal caste system"" +-- at the State Department severely impact morale, career growth, and even operations. The report on the Africa bureau +noted that in 2002, public affairs and public diplomacy was a ""failed office"" -- and that the situation is worse in 2009. +Public outreach workers said the bureau's leadership ""does not understand public diplomacy."" The sentiment is +widespread. A 2008 report by a congressional ombudsman, the U.S. Advisory Commission on Public Diplomacy, +described a systemic failure to support and train public diplomacy officers in the field, as well as professional +discrimination against those in the career track. +Attempts to fix the State Department have focused on short-term issues, such as ameliorating its shortages in human +and financial resources. The last eight secretaries of state have attempted to bolster the department by bolstering its +bottom line. No less than Defense Secretary Robert Gates and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. Mike +Mullen, have long suggested transferring funds from the Defense Department to State Department. But the situation is +so dire that the State Department, at this point, could not even absorb and spend that much-needed infusion of cash. If +there were a wholesale transfer of funds tomorrow, the lack of capacity and skills at the State department would mean +it would have to give it back to the Defenk Department or dole it out to contractors. +The creeping militarization of U.S. foreign policy is itself deeply worrying, not just to Gates and Mullen, but also to such +luminaries as Secretary Clinton and Vice President Joe Biden. In 2008, then-Senator Biden questioned the ""expanding +role of the military in U.S. foreign policy."" He said he was concerned by the ""migration of functions and authorities from +U.S. civilian agencies to the Department of Defense."" +Some commentators have even wondered aloud whether the best way to fix the State Department might be to destroy +it. Foggy Bottom could retain a small core staff for its embassies and ambassadors. All other functions -- such as public +diplomacy, countering misinformation and propaganda, and development, including provincial reconstruction staffing -- +could migrate to the Pentagon or become wholly independent agencies. +But atomizing the State Department would ultimately prove dangerous and further the militarization of foreign policy. +The Pentagon needs a counterbalance, a vertically integrated State Department that the president, Congress, and the +U.S. public can count on. Change, rather than creative destruction, is what Foggy Bottom needs. +Envision a State Department capable of leading whole-of-government initiatives with a strategic focus instead of one +hidebound department geared by structure and tradition to execute state-to-state diplomacy. This ""Department of State +and Non-State"" would be as deft at tackling stateless terrorist networks and hurricanes as it would be at fostering and +upholding alliances with foreign ministers. To transform Foggy Bottom in this way will require breaking the rigid +hierarchy, stovepipes, and bottlenecks which make the Pentagon look lean and dynamic in comparison. +Modern global affairs are not compartmentalized by political borders. Besides expanding the overly shallow and narrow +authorities of the public diplomacy bureau, Clinton must restructure the State Department to focus less on countries +and more on regions. Currently, each of Foggy Bottom's regional bureaus, such as Near East Affairs, is configured to +oversee its patch of embassies. Country desk officers, and most ambassadors, report to an assistant secretary, the +regional head. The assistant secretary in turn reports to an undersecretary, who reports to Clinton. +Clinton should name the regional bureau heads, currently assistant secretaries, to undersecretary status. This would +help eliminate an unnecessary bureaucratic layer and would also align the State Department with the Defense +Department (which has powerful regional commands, such as Centcom and Africom). The State Department's regional +leaders would hold an equivalent civilian rank to four-star combatant commanders like Gen. David Petraeus. These +changes would promise to improve communications, synchronize missions, and put the department on the right path for +today's requirements. +But Clinton should beware reforming the State Department too quickly from within -- her efforts could be paralyzed by a +bureaucracy in mutiny that would simply wait her out. U.S. national security would suffer and the Pentagon's growing +power would become more entrenched. Clinton will need the clear and unequivocal support of the president and more +importantly Congress, which authorizes State Department spending bills, to have a chance at success. +In a burst of activity after Barack Obama's election, Congress authorized more money and people for the +State Department and pushed for greater public diplomacy. Still more is required. The question asked over the last eight +years as the State Department abrogated its various responsibilities -- if not Defense, then who? -- will not, indeed +cannot, be answered until the department steps up to the plate and becomes effective and visible in leading and +implementing U.S. foreign policy. This will take time. But, as the saying goes, there is no time like the present. The +United States now has a Congress that supports change, secretaries of state and defense who want change, a president +whose entire election platform was built around the word ""change,"" and an American public that would be outraged at +the dysfunction if it only knew the details. +3","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765924 Date: 07/31/2015 +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +Mills, Cheryl D +Monday, September 14, 2009 10:51 AM +H +FW: Hitting Bottom in Foggy Bottom +RELEASE IN FULL +FP +FortAgn Policy +Hitting Bottom in Foggy Bottom +The State Department suffers from low morale, bottlenecks, and bureaucratic ineptitude.

Besides failing to address mission overlap, low morale, and lack of career opportunities, +the failed reorganization caused a significant drop in expertise in offices focused on proliferation issues -- including +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765924 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765924 Date: 07/31/2015 +""today's threats posted by Iran, North Korea, and Syria,"" the gao's report said -- and coordination with bodies like the +International Atomic Energy Agency. +Another report by the State Department's inspector general this year described severe and broad dysfunction within the +Africa bureau, while ignoring -- perhaps considering it a given -- the lack of departmentwide integration and leadership +in operations. Examples of the dysfunction range from not providing public diplomacy personnel with computers +capable of reading interoffice memos to a failure to effectively work with the new Africa Command. +By necessity, the Defense Department has stepped in where State Department has tuned out: Foggy Bottom relies on +Pentagon funding and even personnel for basic operations central to its mission. For example, the Defense Department +now performs much strategic communications work traditionally the purview of the State Department. In Somalia, for +example, the State Department's budget for public diplomacy is $30,000. The Pentagon's is $600,000. And, in the State +Department's bureaucratic wisdom, the $30,000 does not even belong to its undersecretary for public diplomacy and +public affairs. +Further, rivalries between the different ""cones"" -- or career tracks, referred to by one insider as the ""conal caste system"" +-- at the State Department severely impact morale, career growth, and even operations. The report on the Africa bureau +noted that in 2002, public affairs and public diplomacy was a ""failed office"" -- and that the situation is worse in 2009. +Public outreach workers said the bureau's leadership ""does not understand public diplomacy."" The sentiment is +widespread. A 2008 report by a congressional ombudsman, the U.S. Advisory Commission on Public Diplomacy, +described a systemic failure to support and train public diplomacy officers in the field, as well as professional +discrimination against those in the career track. +Attempts to fix the State Department have focused on short-term issues, such as ameliorating its shortages in human +and financial resources. The last eight secretaries of state have attempted to bolster the department by bolstering its +bottom line. No less than Defense Secretary Robert Gates and the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. Mike +Mullen, have long suggested transferring funds from the Defense Department to State Department. But the situation is +so dire that the State Department, at this point, could not even absorb and spend that much-needed infusion of cash. If +there were a wholesale transfer of funds tomorrow, the lack of capacity and skills at the State department would mean +it would have to give it back to the Defenk Department or dole it out to contractors. +The creeping militarization of U.S. foreign policy is itself deeply worrying, not just to Gates and Mullen, but also to such +luminaries as Secretary Clinton and Vice President Joe Biden. In 2008, then-Senator Biden questioned the ""expanding +role of the military in U.S. foreign policy."" He said he was concerned by the ""migration of functions and authorities from +U.S. civilian agencies to the Department of Defense."" +Some commentators have even wondered aloud whether the best way to fix the State Department might be to destroy +it. Foggy Bottom could retain a small core staff for its embassies and ambassadors. All other functions -- such as public +diplomacy, countering misinformation and propaganda, and development, including provincial reconstruction staffing -- +could migrate to the Pentagon or become wholly independent agencies. +But atomizing the State Department would ultimately prove dangerous and further the militarization of foreign policy. +The Pentagon needs a counterbalance, a vertically integrated State Department that the president, Congress, and the +U.S. public can count on. Change, rather than creative destruction, is what Foggy Bottom needs. +Envision a State Department capable of leading whole-of-government initiatives with a strategic focus instead of one +hidebound department geared by structure and tradition to execute state-to-state diplomacy. This ""Department of State +and Non-State"" would be as deft at tackling stateless terrorist networks and hurricanes as it would be at fostering and +upholding alliances with foreign ministers. To transform Foggy Bottom in this way will require breaking the rigid +hierarchy, stovepipes, and bottlenecks which make the Pentagon look lean and dynamic in comparison. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765924 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765924 Date: 07/31/2015 +Modern global affairs are not compartmentalized by political borders. Besides expanding the overly shallow and narrow +authorities of the public diplomacy bureau, Clinton must restructure the State Department to focus less on countries +and more on regions. Currently, each of Foggy Bottom's regional bureaus, such as Near East Affairs, is configured to +oversee its patch of embassies. Country desk officers, and most ambassadors, report to an assistant secretary, the +regional head. The assistant secretary in turn reports to an undersecretary, who reports to Clinton. +Clinton should name the regional bureau heads, currently assistant secretaries, to undersecretary status. This would +help eliminate an unnecessary bureaucratic layer and would also align the State Department with the Defense +Department (which has powerful regional commands, such as Centcom and Africom). The State Department's regional +leaders would hold an equivalent civilian rank to four-star combatant commanders like Gen. David Petraeus. These +changes would promise to improve communications, synchronize missions, and put the department on the right path for +today's requirements. +But Clinton should beware reforming the State Department too quickly from within -- her efforts could be paralyzed by a +bureaucracy in mutiny that would simply wait her out. U.S. national security would suffer and the Pentagon's growing +power would become more entrenched. Clinton will need the clear and unequivocal support of the president and more +importantly Congress, which authorizes State Department spending bills, to have a chance at success. +In a burst of activity after Barack Obama's election, Congress authorized more money and people for the +State Department and pushed for greater public diplomacy. Still more is required. The question asked over the last eight +years as the State Department abrogated its various responsibilities -- if not Defense, then who? -- will not, indeed +cannot, be answered until the department steps up to the plate and becomes effective and visible in leading and +implementing U.S. foreign policy. This will take time. But, as the saying goes, there is no time like the present. The +United States now has a Congress that supports change, secretaries of state and defense who want change, a president +whose entire election platform was built around the word ""change,"" and an American public that would be outraged at +the dysfunction if it only knew the details. +3 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765924 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3379,C05765926,BRIAN ROBERTS RETURNED YOUR CALL,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C",116,2009-12-05T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05765926/C05765926.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C ",,"Saturday, December 5, 2009 2:24 PM",F-2014-20439,C05765926,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,###,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765926 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: Jiloty, Lauren C +Sent: Saturday, December 5, 2009 2:24 PM +To: H +Subject Brian roberts returned your call +### +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765926 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3380,C05765927,SHEIKHA MOSA OF QATAR,H,"Blair, Cherie",30,2009-09-14T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_038-039/DOC_0C05765927/C05765927.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05765927,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Cherie Blair +Monday, September 14, 2009 12:02 PM +H; hr15@mycingular.blackberry.net +psolisdoylE +Sheikha Mosa of Qatar +She is available to see you on 24th September either morning or afternoon?

The Queens Chronicle reported last week + that SL +Green/Hard Rock made a presentation on Thursday. +""Hard Rock is the right balance,"" [Pres/CEO Marc] Holliday said. ""Its recognized brand and quality entertainment +will attract younger and older players across the stratum. People flying in from JFK will say, 'I hear there's a Hard Rock, I +want to see it."" +One of this group's big pitches is that they'll be the first to generate a revenue stream (""shovel-ready, in the +ground, the day after the award."") +And thanks to the reader who alerted us to this article in Crain's + which, more importantly than comprising yet +another virtual press release for Steve Wynn, contains, towards the bottom, a handy pocket guide to the six bidders, the +financial portion of their bids (or at least what is known about them), and the ups and downs of their proposals. +This is a tough call; handicapping without the Form as I said before. I can't say I have a favorite; neither a +particular personal preference, nor a clue as to the most likely winner. But I'll give it a shot and take the Crain's piece +one step further by coming up with a morning line. + Aqueduct Entertainment Group (3-1): Competitive bid +of $251 million (contingent on 7,650 machines; $301 million with 10,000), a plethora of local connections on the real +estate/construction side, and approval by local unions could compensate for the lack of brand name recognition of +gaming partner The Navegante Group. Presence of Senator Malcolm Smith's longtime confidante Rev. Floyd Flake +doesn't hurt either. +SL Green/Hard Rock (4-1) - Boosted its bid to $275 million, and has the Hard Rock brand name as mentioned +above. Manhattan-based realtor SL Green has been endorsed by several local unions + . But, as mentioned by Crain's, they were +passed over in favor of Delaware North the first time around. +Aqueduct Gaming (6-1), Buffalo-based Delaware North's group, has rallied late with a stepped-up publicity effort +and a major community initiative after appearing +indifferent early on (though it's original $100 million upfront offer remains intact with an additional $200 million to +follow). The addition of Harrah's +adds an experienced operator and an interesting cross-marketing twist which is probably not allowed under the now- +disappeared MOU. And, like the two bidders above, Aqueduct Gaming has been reported to have reached +accommodations with the unions. So I listed them as the third choice on these merits. However, a part of me wants to +list them as the rank outsider - I'd be pretty damn shocked if the state goes back to the company which dropped out +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765936 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765936 Date: 07/31/2015 +after failing to raise the money last time. And, as I've mentioned several times, given the reports of an investigation + by Attorney +General Andrew Cuomo into lobbyist Patricia Lynch's dealings with the Assembly Speaker, I don't know if her +involvement here is going to help or hurt. +Steve Wynn (8-1) has offered $300 million, but he was the only bidder of the six contenders to receive a bad +grade from the hotel unions as +reported by Jim Odato in the Times Union last week. Whatsmore, the scale of his building proposal + is laughably ridiculous, and it wouldn't be ready until 2011. +He'd be the favorite if the decision is based on the number of newspaper and online articles + each bidder has been featured in. But, quite +simply, he sometimes comes off as a nut + . +Penn National (12-1) might be worth a ducat at long odds. No local connection here makes them a dark horse. +But a $250 million bid (as reported elsewhere though not in the Crain's piece) puts them in the ballgame, and the company is an experienced gaming +operator with a solid balance sheet + which would probably do as +competent a job as anyone else. +R.

Will send PIR comments shortly. +To: CDM +Fr: Caitlin +Re: Branch Book +Overview: +There are few surprises in this book. The ""surprises"" that might exist are buried and took a close reading to pick up on— +the two main ones are about the terror clause of WJC's crime bill and why he hadn't disclosed information about +Lewinsky (because he hadn't wanted to become a witness against her). There are a lot of things that have been covered +in My Life and other publications. Quite honestly the book was pretty boring and much more focused on Branch than I +had anticipated. While not as ""and this day, and the next day"" as My Life, it does share many of the same elements that +would engage only a true Clinton fanatic or historian. The fact that there appears to be no index also makes it difficult +for anyone looking for a quick hit to get one. Furthermore, WJC's words are so interlaced with Branch's recollection +through his dictations, that the number of direct WJC quotes was far fewer than I had expected. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 +HRC was not as much of a player as one might imagine. Her role is largely seen through her interactions with Branch +when he is recording WJC. Her statements were consistent with the past, with the exception of the Gephardt comment, +and didn't grab much attention at al1.[11 (Others included HRC's devotion to CVC, thought that there should not be a +special prosecutor and images of her returning from meetings. They were pretty much aligned with her interactions with +Branch.) Surprisingly, or not surprisingly, many of the problems discussed in the book are those, which face the current +Administration—Middle East peace, North Korea, China, etc... +Branch repeatedly injects his feelings on specific subjects and seems to use the book to voice his own opinion of the +Administration and events of the time. He clearly has topics he prefers over others (for example his connection with the +events in Haiti result in a lot of discussion about it), but there are some subjects that are strikingly sparsely discussed +such as Rwanda. Its absence from long discussions was surprising, but it did not appear as thought WJC ever-dodged +questions about the topic, they just weren't addressed. Much like My Life, one theme that repeated itself was WJC's +conflict with and disdain for the media, especially long passages about NYT and Washington Post. There are a few +instances where gives them credit on their reporting, but you would be hard-pressed to find them. Additionally, there +are numerous mentions of WJC's acute allergies and his chronic fatigue, with imagery of him falling asleep in sessions on +more than a couple occasions. +The book has quite a bit on Whitewater, but given the dearth of public documentation there is little that Branch could +write that hadn't been said. One thing I had not recalled was the D'Amato's subpoena of CVC's friends, later quashed, +who slept over while HRC's Rose Law Firm records were in the White House. Branch does portray a helpful distinction in +how WJC looked at Whitewater and other scandals. While WJC attacks Whitewater as a political hunt, Branch does have +him WJC saying that Filegate needed to be separated from Whitewater, because this was a legitimate inquiry. There are +some quips that could catch someone's eye, such as WJC referring to Paula Jones as ""a 'new bimbo' he [WJC] didn't +even recognize."" +Branch does not dwell on Lewinsky or the impeachment. With the exception of Bruce, Bennett and Kendall, no other +lawyers are mentioned. There is one passage that I am looking into, in which WJC says part of the reason he didn't +mention his relationship with Lewinsky at first was because she was being threatened with jail time if she was found to +be lying under oath and had he told the truth he could become a witness against her. This is a very small passage that +could easily be missed, but one that it is important to note as I don't recall hearing this before. (This is addressed more +fully below.) +There are a few relationships that track through the book more than others. They include WJC's relationship with Gore, +which maps in part because it is not a focal point until the end, and his contentious relationship with Janet Reno. The +one Senator that appears to be most discussed negatively is Moynihan. All three of these issues are discussed in turn +below. WJC is portrayed as an extremely loving and attentive father and HRC is portrayed in a much more human light +than other books/articles covering this time period, with ample mention of her relationship with CVC and images of +affection between her and WJC, both pre- and post-impeachment. +12 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 +On foreign relations there is a lot of time spent discussing the Middle East, Northern Ireland, the Balkans, China, Russia, +Pakistan/India and in the beginning of the book, Haiti. (Note: Much of what is written about Haiti is about Branch's own +experience there and on the subject.) There is also a fair amount of discussion about North Korea, but nothing that has +not been discussed in the past few weeks. Bin Laden is discussed in what seems to track mention of him in My Life, +which seems to have more detail and background than this book. +In certain cases there is more detail here than in My Life, for example on his trip to Pakistan WJC wrote that the USSS +cancelled one stop because they would be ""defenseless"" flying in, whereas Brach writes that the streets would be lined +with ""assassins."" There are candid looks at WIC's take on certain people and the relationship between some, such as +Albright and Berger's dislike of Holbrooke, and a more detailed depiction of Yeltsin's drinking, such as yelling outside of +Blair House for a cab to get pizza. +One thing to note, is that often times WJC seems to be speaking to Branch intentionally without the recorders going, but +Branch writes about those interactions and exchanges nonetheless. Such is the case with HRC's Gephardt comment. +The following items are addressed in the memo: +Wen Ho Lee and Terror Clause of Crime Bill 4 +WJC and Lewinsky's Silence 4 +I +HRC and Kissinger 4 1 +HRC and gay/lesbian 5 +Tension with Moynihan 5 +HRC as World Player 5 +Jesse Jackson 6 +Tension with Janet Reno 6 +Portrayal of Carter 7 +Relationship with Gore 8 +Other (This includes: Maggie recommending Panetta, HRC and Haiti Invasion, ITAV co-author flap, Subpoenas of CVC's +Friends, Vernon Jordan on Extramarital Sex, Gore/HRC ticket, WJC suggesting Rubin run for Senate, Trip to South Asia) +11 +13 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 +Wen Ho Lee and Terror Clause of Crime Bill +In discussing Wen Ho Lee's release Branch characterizes WJC's lack of knowledge about the strained interpretation of +the anti-terrorist provisions in the crime bill and arbitrary detentions as a ""confession."" My Life only mentions Lee's +accusation in passing and does not again discuss Lee. Below are two passages from Branch's book the first giving context +and the second about the Terror Clause of the Crime Bill. +0 The year closed on spies and terrorism. The Justice Department, after fierce debate among the security agencies, +indicted nuclear scientist Wen Ho Lee on fifty-nine counts of copying classified material to his personal computer. Lee +was being handled like a radioactive espionage defendant—no bail, lockdown, solitary confinement—even though the +long dragnet had produced no evidence that he offered secrets to China or anyone else. The president said experts were +telling him the worst spies sometimes stored their treason for a rainy day. This sounded fishy to me. Clinton shrugged. +Nothing would please him more than to establish Lee's innocence. [Branch, 577] +0 While Lee was indicted, Branch writes that WJC noted that others ""were being held in secret, uncharged and +untried...He [WJC] was embarrassed not to have sponsored this measure into law without foreseeing such arbitrary +detentions...Under the terrorist act, any prosecutor should decide within the legal limit...whether to bring charges on the +testimony of a secret informant or otherwise. To his dismay, Clinton had learned of defendants held incommunicado for +more than six months. One extreme detention had last three years. 'I think it's wrong,' he [WJC] said. 'It's not American. +We accept guilty people on the street to enjoy and protect our freedom."" [Branch, 629] +WJC and Lewinsky's Silence +Branch writes that part of WJC's motive for not discussing what had happened with Lewinsky was that it could send her +to jail, as she had denied it. +0 ""Also, he pointed out that Starr had been threatening to jail Lewinsky all year over her sworn denial of the affair. If +Clinton had come forward with anything at all about their relationship, he said Starr could have turned him into a +witness against Lewinsky, betraying her discreet silence. Such subtleties, while original, struck me as tendentious. The +president never claimed chivalry as the real motive for his steadfast denial, nor did he dispute the essential truth of +Lewinsky's account."" [Branch, 511] +HRC and Kissinger +The following could be fodder for people who want to continue to string along the notion of channeling Eleanor +Roosevelt. +14 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 +0 There is a passage in which HRC describes an exchange she had with Kissinger at a dinner where he complained that +if the health care bill passed he wouldn't be able to see his own doctor. She continued to say ""it was interesting, in fact, +that she had dreamed about Kissinger only a few nights before. His visage turned suddenly effervescent at a banquet, +announcing gladly that his worries were over because the Clinton health care bill was dying. 'Oh, no, Dr. Kissinger,' she +replied coolly. 'Don't be sure that it's dead. We'll keep fighting, and there's always light at the end of the tunnel.' She +said Kissing blanched, speechless at her deft reminder of the Vietnam War...Now at last, in Hillary's dream, it registered +that his strategic designs had spewed carnage and venom for seven needless years...'That's what I dreamed,' Hillary +repeated, lost in thought. 'You know, I always get my revenge in dreams, but never in real life."" [Branch, 179] +HRC and gay/lesbian +Writing about a call with HRC from NYS, Branch recalls how WIC's counsel got very ""exercised."" WJC left the room. ""He +was subdued on his return. 'You know, I've had a lot more contact with gay people in my life than Hillary.' He sighed. Her +temperament had a conservative, religious core, formed before homosexual issues were even mentionable. New York +politics was a tough crucible, and she was unsure what heat she could take. On the other hand, personal experience +could speed adaptation."" [Branch, 551] +Tension with Moynihan +There are several occasions throughout the book that Branch recalls WJC's grievances and frustration with Moynihan. +For example: +0 When Moynihan called for the international arms embargo to be unilaterally lifted so that Bosnia could fight for +themselves, Branch writes, ""The president flinched when I mentioned [it]...'That's just a freebie for him,' snapped +Clinton, 'and he knows it."" [p.140] +0 In regard to health care: ""Echoing comments by Hillary at dinner, he [WJC] faulted Senator Moynihan for aimless +hearings conducted without a strategy or theme."" [p.170] +0 Discussing Independent Counsel: ""She [HRC] was especially scornful of the Democrats, and quoted a number of +them. Senator Moynihan, for instance, publicly said the Clintons were nice people and he was sure they had nothing to +hide. 'Why not have an investigation?' he often asked. She said Moynihan skated blithely on the surface, never +produced results in Congress, and could not withstand such scrutiny himself for five minutes, living in an apartment +secured through his chairmanship of the Pennsylvania Avenue Development Corporation."" [Brach, 182] +15 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 +0 ""Donnybrook"" argument in which Moynihan said of a fundraising speech WJC gave citing a regretted hypothetical +about a controversial decision. Moynihan told the press, ""He doesn't understand...that he's conceding the principles."" +WJC confronted him about lack of context given to the statement to the press and said that Moynihan knew what he +was doing by ""feeding the beast of hostile presumption about Clinton's motives."" [Branch, 299] +HRC as World Player +There are several images as HRC as a player on the world stage, both with WJC and on her own. Several examples +follow: +0 Middle East: Discussing peace with King Hussein: ""They had retreated for lunch as two couples—the Clintons, with +the king and his wife, Queen Noor—in the family dining room...Their agenda was a delicate race between Hussein's +failing health and his desire to make peace with Israel. The president said he and Hillary pounded away on symptoms of +national estrangement: closed boarders, water disputes, travel barriers, war grievances, contested airspace, sealed +electrical grids, and so on. Hussein gave them a feast of goodwill without commitment on any point."" [Branch, 170] +0 South Asia: Regarding her trip to South Asia with CVC in 1995, ""Her [HRC's] schedule was far more demanding than +ceremonial, pushing both conflict resolution and civic empowerment for downtrodden women."" [Branch, 236] Later +Branch tells of Benazir Bhutto praising CVC and HRC. ""By contrast with a superficial American press, which portrayed +Hillary as a demure tourist of no policy significance in exotic Asia, Bhutto said she had touched essential political chords +with whirlwind encouragements for citizenship groups and small-scale economic development."" (The note contrasting +Bhutto corresponds to a NYT article which Branch quotes in the footer saying, ""she [HRC] played the traditional role of +First Lady as wife and mother..."") [Branch, 246] +0 China Speech: Branch outlines how HRC felt the speech needed to be bigger than China and how she depicted the +""harsh reality everywhere"" from China to Africa. He then cites WJC commenting on the rave reviews of HRC's speech. +[Branch, 289] +0 Regarding the Russian financial system meltdown, Branch writes ""Yeltsin seemed so removed from urgent political +tasks that both Clintons counseled him directly."" [Branch, 512-513] +Jesse Jackson +Branch writes about Jesse Jackson calling CVC after the Lewinsky story broke and having continued contact with her +throughout the period. WJC thanks him for his support of CVC. This goes into some detail about WJCs gratitude, but the +fact that Jackson ""counseled"" CVC has been public knowledge dating back to at least 1999. +16 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 +0 ""But now Jesse had done something he would not forget. When the Lewinsky news broke, he called Chelsea at +Stanford. Jesse was the only nonfamily adult with her cell phone number. How he got it was another story. Jesse said he +knew this was terrible for her. Nothing like it had ever happened in American politics. He did not know everything +involved, but he wanted to remind Chelsea how much her parents loved her. Their family needed to stick together now +above all, and if she needed to counsel, rage, or pray, he was always available."" [Branch, 497] +Tension with Janet Reno +Throughout the book, from his nomination of her, WJC is portrayed as having no opinion to having a negative opinion of +Janet Reno. +0 ""He complained about Janet Reno—made it clear, in fact, that he felt alienated from his own attorney general. If he +removed her, however, the pending decision on yet another special prosecutor [for 1996 campaign finance] would fall +to Reno's deputy, Jamie Gorelick, who, Clinton feared, may share Reno's wholesale devotion to outside control for any +case in which the president himself may become a target...lf he removed both Reno and Gorelick, to start fresh, it would +touch off a firestorm of protest like Nixon's Saturday Night Massacre of the Justice Department officials during the +Watergate scandal. That was not an option."" [Branch, 388-389] +0 Branch writes about WJC talking about Reno and Louis Freeh disregarding a letter from D'Amato and continuing to +allow independent counsel to go after Ciseneros. The same held true for Mike Espy. Branch then outlines a meeting +between WJC and Reno. Reno had made public statements about her ""desire to stay on the job. 'I told her I didn't like +that one damn bit,' the president said tersely. 'I didn't hire her to work for the New York Times and Washington Post. I +hired her to work for me."" [Branch, 398] He continues to outline that Clinton did give Reno credit for some good +achievements including coordination with U.S. attorneys and that he didn't blame her for the special prosecutor on +Whitewater, but that ""he did blame her for abdicating responsibility to supervise the investigations ever since, letting +mandates multiply almost at will. She accepted criteria that were ludicrous and crassly partisan. Reno had failed to +defend the presidency itself—not Clinton personally, but the institution—and by extension the entire executive +branch...He told me she had no clue what he meant. His advisers considered her more naive than upright, and the +fuzziness of the distinction seemed to save her."" [Branch, 399] He cites that Clinton warned her that she should prepare +herself for not staying in the job for the entire second term. +Portrayal of Jimmy Carter +There are parallels that could be drawn between WJC/BHO and Carter/WJC both in terms of Carter's trip to North Korea +and the mission he went on to Haiti. WJC clearly was frustrated by Carter's seeming desire to be on the front lines. +17 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 +North Korea: +0 ""On North Korea, he [WJC] said Jimmy Carter had initiated his own recent trip with a call to Al Gore, and Clinton had +approved the volunteer mission to break through North Korea's extreme isolation...Sure enough, Carter did reach North +Korean dictator Kim II-sung, who proposed to allow inspection of North Korea's nuclear facilities in exchange for relief +from the harsh economic sanctions. The only hitch was that Carter announced the terms on CNN before they became +official, adding gratuitously that he never had agreed with sanctions in the first place. News stories had the White House +seething, but Clinton made light of the spat. He said the deal was since ratified by an exchange of letters, and he did not +believe Carter would criticize official policy 'if the game were still in doubt."" [Branch, 162] +Haiti: +0 After pushing to be sent to Haiti and enlisting Colin Powell and Sam Nunn to get WJC to break with Gore (who said +Carter shouldn't be trusted a second time) and Christopher and approve the mission to Haiti to seek a truce with the +junta, Carter is portrayed as acting stubbornly and having 'clientitis' (arguing for acceptance of Haitian generals versus +what was in the United States' best interest). He didn't want to leave and WJC told him he had to. Like after North +Korea, Carter again, Carter went to the press first. ""The three negotiators flew back to Washington late Sunday, and +Carter, invited to stay over at the White House, called CNN's Judy Woodruff after midnight to arrange an interview the +next morning before he reported to Clinton on his mission. This conduct, the president said tersely, was not right...The +press was full of retrospective stories about friction between him and his three prominent negotiators...He said the +current newsweeklies lapped up criticism by Carter as an embarrassment to Clinton...Many of his advisers griped that +Jimmy Carter thought he was still president, but Clinton found this criticism too jaundiced. Carter had spoken with +restraint at their joint press conference, he allowed, exhibiting a keen political ear...To Clinton, Carter simply felt that he +had earned the right to speak his mind as an international statesman, even about a mission he had accepted for the +United States government complete with an Air Force jet. This sense of entitlement could make Carter a thorn, but +Clinton thought his value far outweighed the political annoyance. He considered Carter a sterling ex-resident."" [Branch, +200-201] +Dispatch of Bombers Near Iraq +0 ""He expected military strikes to win bipartisan assent, including former presidents Ford, Reagan and Bush. 'Dole will +support me,' he said. 'Carter will probably criticize me. Carter always criticizes, but he doesn't have much positive to +say."" [Branch, 518] +Gore +For the majority of the book, there is little discussion of WJC and Gore's relationship. There are few places where he is +briefly mentioned and a couple of scenes with some levity. The end, however, describes the seemingly brutally candid +conversation between the two about the 2000 election and the impeachment. +18 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05765941 Date: 07/31/2015 +0 On page 92 Branch writes, ""No, he [Clinton] did not ask Gore to take over a failed foreign policy, as alleged, but to +improve public presentations by his troika of 'bad talkers': shy National Security Adviser Tony Lake, boring Secretary of +State Warren Christopher, and disorganized Defense Secretary Les Aspin."" [Branch, 92] +0 In one-passage WJC talks about asking Gore to lead the independent review of Hazel O'Leary and also having Gore +substitute for him at an economic conference in Japan. The latter did not fare well as other nations were offended that +Gore, not WJC attended. Gore insisted that WJC needed to go to Japan to redeem himself and the administration for his +absence. Gore pointed to a few days in January, but WJC ""pronounced them vital to Chelsea's schoolwork. Gore blinked. +So what?...Mutual exasperation spiked. 'Al,' Clinton told him, 'I am not going to Japan and leave Chelsea by herself to +take these exams.' Gore erupted. He thought Clinton had lost his bearing. They had a big fight, said the president, and +were still wrangling about dates for Japan."" Branch states that this fight wound up being around the time WJC saw +Lewinsky. [Branch, 316-317] +0 On page 396-397 there is a scene, which shows Gore's sense of humor and Gore, WJC, et al working as a team to +secure the Cabinet for the second term. +0 Later there is a passage about an exchange between WJC and HRC about Gore trying to hire a second criminal +lawyer. HRC already knew he was paying the first one $30,000 per month. The conversation is about a leak of an offer +from Jim Neal of TN, the former Watergate prosecutor to defend Gore for free. The exchange is more on ethics of the +offer and its leak to the press than about Gore. +0 On Gore's announcing his campaign. ""The president had called twice to congratulate Gore for his kickoff events— +once from Geneva, hours later from Paris. Clinton thought the only glitches were technical...But Gore got all the big +things right. His twofold message was perfect: distinguish himself from Clinton's personal flaws, and tell voters exactly +what he would do for them in the White House. The president said it was fine for Gore to call Clinton's affair with +Monica Lewinsky 'inexcusable.' First, it was true. Second, it showed a necessary strength to criticized the boss. Third, +Gore would be badgered to death until he did. 'Al,' Clinton told him, `if you thought it would help in the campaign, I +would let you flog me at noon right on the doorstep of the Washington Post."" [Branch, 553-554] Branch continues that +WJC told Gore to ignore reporting that he was offended or critical of his campaign. ""On tape, the president said he +confided his chief strategic worry only to Gore himself and to Gore's pollster, Mark Penn. The vice president must +project his platform—where he stood, precisely how and where he would lead the country—because the Republicans +would try to knock him off substance."" [Branch, 554] +0 WJC offered critiques of Gore's campaign throughout, but it was always framed as his fear of Gore not succeeding +him. For example, ""Clinton still thought Gore could win. Most people considered him smart, experience, and motivated. +He examined the pitfalls for Gore in a campaign showcasing presidential character over detailed agendas for the +country. Reporters called Gore ""stiff,"" but Clinton discounted this liability. He thought Gore's droll sense of humor would +wear well over time. Gore also was perceived to be too conventional a Democrat, therefore lacking independence, +which called for Gore to emphasize more his own passion and initiatives. Then the president said Gore could have a +brooding quality about him, not worrisome or off-putting in itself, but potentially damaging if his serious nature failed to +give voters a lifted. Clinton isolated the word ""sunny."" Gore needed more of it.""

""Gore knew Washington. Believe me, said the +president, his administration would have made many more errors in the first two years had it not been for the vice +president."" He then goes on to say that WJC suggested Gore find someone who would be a bright spot to run with, +perhaps Durbin or Bradley or Kerrey, although he also goes into great detail about the virtues of Mikulski, even though +she would never get chosen. How much of this was WJC's emphasis versus Branch's focus on his home state senator is +unclear. [Branch, 599, 618-19] +WJC criticized Gore for not running on the successes of the administration. ""They should be running essentially for a +third term, said the president, but they were afraid the Clinton-Gore record would tarnish them with Clinton's +character."" [Branch, 623] Branch gives WJC's critique of Gore in debate that had been heard before—that Gore lacked +style and a light touch. +0 Branch has WJC recalling a conversation between WJC and Gore where ""Gore had bared himself in one of their +stressful consultations by insisting that he, Gore, was a good politician, elaborating that he meant good on the policy, +and also good on the politics, but admitted that he did not instinctively blend the two. Gore said he had to think about +it, and Clinton thought this was pretty close to the bone...He had the stuff to be a great president, and this was the +message that Clinton must convey somehow without seeming to brag on his own record."" [Branch, 623-624] +0 The big passage about Gore begins on page 641 and extends to 645. Branch notes that WJC was unsure at first +about recording the details. At the outset it says, ""For his own part, Gore was not angry, nor did he blame Clinton for his +defeat, but he wanted to acknowledge forthrightly that some people around him did."" [Branch, 642] It has WJC +acknowledging that Gore's use of him was proper—he was best in the White House. Then he says, ""'I think you made a +mistake not to use me more in the last ten days,"" Clinton told Gore, 'but otherwise that was not a big deal. I was much +more upset about your message, now that we're being honest."" [Branch, 642] Branch recalls WJC saying Gore fought +bag saying that ""Clinton's drag plagued every direction."" Clinton then said that Gore was better at governance than +Clinton, and Gore would be better for the nation than Bush, and that he was an ""unparalleled"" vice president, but that +he had ""blind spots."" Branch writes that WJC kept saying their confrontation was ""surreal."" +o Gore had a ""fresh grievance...he wanted Clinton to know that the Buddhist temple fund-raising scandal had been +the worst experience of his life. No one had ever questioned his personal integrity, but corrosive publicity and whispers +had tormented him now for four years. Gore said he had not been disposed to blame Clinton. However, he remembered +telling the president that he found himself the only English-speaking person at one of those Asian fund-raisers. And the +president was in charge of the party apparatus that was supposed to screen all the donations for trouble. So he did +blame Clinton in a way. The president told me he could scarcely believe the ensuing tales of suspicion. Gore must still be +in shock from the election, or unhinged. 'I thought he was in Neverland,' he said."" [Branch, 643-644] +o Branch continues: ""The vice president asked Clinton about Monica Lewinsky. He had supported Clinton all through +the impeachment, publicly and privately, while declaring himself disappointed. Yes, said the president. He appreciated +that. However, persisted Gore, Clinton did not confide any personal feelings. He never explained exactly what happened. +There was little to say, Clinton replied, beyond failure and regret.

The unemployment rate +over that time for white college graduates under 24 years old grew by about 20 percent.

His assailant is a mentally disturbed man without a political agenda who has been in and out of +psychiatric care since he was 18 years old. Nonetheless, the assault has significant repercussions. It has +generated sympathy for Berlusconi as a victim—he has been obviously injured, lost two teeth and a pint +of blood, and doctors will keep him in the hospital for perhaps a week for observation. The attack comes +as Berlusconi was beginning to lose political footing, having lost his legal immunity. One court inquiry +is turning up evidence of his links to the Mafia while another is examining his role in the bribery case of +British lawyer David Mills. Berlusconi's government and party have used the attack as a way to turn the +sudden sympathy for him to his advantage, claiming that his opponents have sown a climate of ""hate."" +Through demogogic appeals they are attempting to discredit and rebuff the legal proceedings against +him and undermine the investigative press. (Berlusconi is suing La Repu.bblica, the large independent +newspaper in Rome that has been most aggressive in digging into his affairs of all kind.) +It would seem proper and decent for the President to call Berlusconi to express his concern about his health +and wish him a speedy recovery, if he hasn't done so already.

It would be awkward +for the U.S. President not to call a Western head of state of a NATO country who has been physically +harmed. Berlusconi, for his part, would certainly make such a call public. It would therefore also be +awkward if a call were used only as an element in his sympathy campaign against the court proceedings. +If so, there is a larger message that should be communicated, perhaps by the President in his conversation, +but most importantly through a statement from the State Department, also conveyed by the U.S. +ambassador in Italy.

The media tycoon entered. politics a few months later +and won his first term as Prime Minister in 1994. +Spatuzza said his boss, Giuseppe Graviano, who was jailed over Mafia bomb attacks in Rome, Milan and +Florence, had told him that the Mob had ""got everything"" with the help of Mr Berlusconi, adding that Graviano +called Mr Berlusconi ""the man from Channel 5"", in reference to his TV network. +The damaging claims came at the appeal hearing of Marcell° Dell'Utri, a key Berlusconi associate and senator, +who is challenging his nine-year jail sentence for links with the Mafia. +Spatuzza, in prison for several murders, testified: ""Graviano told me the name of Berlusconi and said that +thanks to him and the man from our home town [an apparent reference to Dell' Utri] we have the country in our +hands."" • +Mr Berlusconi has denounced the claims of Spatuzza as ""vile"", and ""unfounded and defamatory"", denying ever +having links with the Mafia. The Prime Minister's spokesman said the testimony yesterday was the Mafia's +""completely logical"" revenge against the Prime Minister for his ""determined"" fight against organised crime. +Dell'Utri told the court that neither he nor Mr Berlusconi had Mafia connections. ""It's in the interest of the +Mafia to force the collapse of the Berlusconi government because this government has done the most in the +fight against organised crime,"" he said. Mr Berlusconi, who recently lost his legal immunity to prosecution, was +said to have been furious this week, after the parliamentary Speaker, Gianfranco Fini, the man who is supposed +to be his closest ally, had said that the Spatuzza evidence was ""an atomic bomb"". +Mr Fini was recorded by an unobserved microphone while talking privately at an official dinner. Rumours of +the conservative Prime Minister's links with the Mob have persisted since investigators learnt that a Cosa Nostra +hitman, Vittorio Mangano, worked as Mr Berlusconi's ""stable-master"" at the media mogul's villa in Arcore +outside Milan in the 1970s. Much speculation has also centred on the origins of Mr Berlusconi's vast wealth. +Last week, the Prime Minister's broadcast group, Mediaset, and his holding company, Fininvest, announced it +intended to sue the left-wing newspaper La Repubblica over an article that said Mediaset was ""20 per cent +owned by the Mafia"". +La Stampa newspaper noted that the ""dread combination of Mafia allegations and separation from his wife are +now his principal torments"". Mr Berlusconi's estranged wife, Veronica Lario, is said to be seeking a f3m-a- +month divorce settlement, and a messy courtroom battle looms. Mr Berlusconi also faces a retrial on the charge +that he bribed the British lawyer David Mills to lie in court. +TIME +Friday, Dec. 04, 2009 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766018 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766018 Date: 08/31/2015 +After a Court Ruling, Berlusconi's Legal Woes +Resume +By Jeff Israely +The world has spent the past six months wondering how — and with whom -- Silvio Berlusconi spends his +Saturday nights. But the combative, scandal-plagued Prime Minister of Italy would prefer to talk about his +mornings instead. ""Do you know how I've been forced to spend my Saturday mornings since I entered politics?"" +Berlusconi once declared to business leaders in Rome. ""With my lawyers."" +Italy's self-proclaimed Defendant in Chief makes a. point of lamenting all those weekends spoiled by stacks of +court dossiers. as further proof that he is the victim of politically motivated magistrates, whom he called during +the same speech ""the spreading cancer of our democracy."" LSee Berlusconi's worst vaffes.). +To combat such perceived persecution, Berlusconi has tested the bounds of decorous democratic conduct, +including his allies' pushing a bill through Parliament last year that gave him and other top Italian officeholders +immunity from prosecution. But since the Constitutional Court overturned that law in October, several criminal +investigations into Berlusconi's business dealings have been reopened, with other new charges rumored to be +looming. +The potentially most damaging trial is set to resume Friday, Dec. 4, in Milan, with the 73-year-old billionaire +being accused of paying British attorney David Mills $600,000 in 1997 to withhold incriminating evidence +about his broadcasting empire Mediaset. Mills is appealing a conviction in the same case; both men have denied +any wrongdoing. +So, alas, Berlusconi is back to spending his downtime with a well-paid cadre of more than a dozen avvocati, +who have been successful so far in keeping their biggest client clear of criminal convictions. Not that the +lawyers have ever really gone away. Since the media baron first ran for office 15 years ago, his legal advisers +have doubled as political consiglieri, key members of Parliament and even important Cabinet Ministers. Indeed, +while some critics have spoken of Berlusconi's reign as a kind of sultanate of showgirls or government by gaffe, +others have described it as a republic of attorneys. (See what Beriusconi's Obama ""jok.es"" sqy about Italy.) +His longtime lawyer Cesare Previti served as Italian Defense Minister during Beriusconi's first term in 1994 +before being convicted of corruption himself (and losing twice on appeal). During Berlusconi's second term +(2001-06), Gaetano Pecorella, a former leftist, served as president of Parliament's Justice Commission, where +he was instrumental in shepherding through new laws that helped shield Berlusconi from investigating +magistrates. +Giovanni Sartori, a Columbia University professor of constitutional law, says the role Berlusconi's personal +lawyers have played in his legislative agenda is yet another gargantuan conflict of interest to add to those +related to his ownership of Italy's main private television stations. But by now, Sartori says, Berlusconi's +lawyers have perfected the art of exploiting Italy's painfully slow justice system: many cases conclude without a +final verdict because the statute of limitations has been reached. ""It is more a mania than a necessity,"" Sartori +says of Berlusconi's near obsession in battling magistrates. ""He feels persecuted, and fighting the judges is what +makes him happy."" +Berlusconi's current point man is Nicol° Ghedini, a somber-faced, lanky 49-year-old criminal-defense attorney +from the northern city of Padua, who has served in both the Italian Senate and the lower house of Parliament. +Ghedini has continued to mount a grinding defense in the criminal cases, arguing in the Mills case that +Berlusconi cannot be present in the Milan courtroom for the next several months because of time conflicts with +his duties as Prime Minister. Ghedini has also spearheaded an increasingly aggressive legal strategy that has +included several libel suits against opposition newspapers. He declared in September that if necessary, +Berlusconi would testify in a suit against a journalist who referred to rumors that the Prime Minister is +impotent. Last week, Berlusconi vowed to launch additional suits against newspapers that printed +unsubstantiated reports that a close adviser of his was involved in a 1993 bombing campaign by the Sicilian +Mafia. (Read ""An Offended Berlusconi Goes on the Offensive."") +Despite these many legal headaches, 'Berlusconi is embroiled in one other particularly thorny case that even he +can't blame on overzealous magistrates.

Women already make up the majority of +university graduates in the OECD countries and the majority of professional +workers in several rich countries, including the United States. Women run many +of the world's great companies, from PepsiCo in America to Areva in France. +Women's economic empowerment is arguably the biggest social change of our +times. Just a generation ago, women were largely confined to repetitive, menial +jobs. They were routinely subjected to casual sexism and were expected to +abandon their careers when they married and had children. Today they are +running some of the organisations that once treated them as second-class +citizens. Millions of women have been given more control over their own lives. +And millions of brains have been put to more productive use. Societies that try to +resist this trend—most notably the Arab countries, but also Japan and some +southern European countries—will pay a heavy price in the form of wasted talent +and frustrated citizens. +This revolution has been achieved with only a modicum of friction (see article). +Men have, by and large, welcomed women's invasion of the workplace. Yet even +the most positive changes can be incomplete or unsatisfactory. This particular +advance comes with two stings. The first is that women are still under- +represented at the top of companies. Only 2% of the bosses of America's largest +companies and 5% of their peers in Britain are women. They are also paid +significantly less than men on average. The second is that juggling work and +child-rearing is difficult. Middle-class couples routinely complain that they have +too little time for their children. But the biggest losers are poor children— +particularly in places like America and Britain that have combined high levels of +female participation in the labour force with a reluctance to spend public money +on child care. +Dealing with the juggle +These two problems are closely related. Many women feel they have to choose +between their children and their careers. Women who prosper in high-pressure +companies during their 20s drop out in dramatic numbers in their 30s and then +find it almost impossible to regain their earlier momentum. Less-skilled women +are trapped in poorly paid jobs with hand-to-mouth child-care arrangements. +Motherhood, not sexism, is the issue: in America, childless women earn almost as +much as men, but mothers earn significantly less. And those mothers' relative +poverty also disadvantages their children. +Demand for female brains is helping to alleviate some of these problems. Even if +some of the new theories about warm-hearted women making inherently superior +workers are bunk (see article), several trends favour the more educated sex, +including the ""war for talent"" and the growing flexibility of the workplace. Law +firms, consultancies and banks are rethinking their ""up or out"" promotion systems +because they are losing so many able women. More than 90% of companies in +Germany and Sweden allow flexible working. And new technology is making it +easier to redesign work in all sorts of family-friendly ways. +Women have certainly performed better over the past decade than men. In the +European Union women have filled 6m of the 8m new jobs created since 2000. In +America three out of four people thrown out of work since the ""mancession"" +began have been male. And the shift towards women is likely to continue: by +2011 there will be 2.6m more female than male university students in America. +The light hand of the state +All this argues, mostly, for letting the market do the work. That has not stopped +calls for hefty state intervention of the Scandinavian sort. Norway has used +threats of quotas to dramatic effect. Some 40% of the legislators there are +women. All the Scandinavian countries provide plenty of state-financed nurseries. +They have the highest levels of female employment in the world and far fewer of +the social problems that plague Britain and America. Surely, comes the argument, +there is a way to speed up the revolution—and improve the tough lives of many +working women and their children? +If that means massive intervention, in the shape of affirmative-action +programmes and across-the-board benefits for parents of all sorts, the answer is +no. To begin with, promoting people on the basis of their sex is illiberal and +unfair, and stigmatises its beneficiaries. And there are practical problems. Lengthy +periods of paid maternity leave can put firms off hiring women, which helps +explain why most Swedish women work in the public sector and Sweden has a +lower proportion of women in management than America does. +But there are plenty of cheaper, subtler ways in which governments can make life +easier for women. Welfare states were designed when most women stayed at +home. They need to change the way they operate. German schools, for instance, +close at midday. American schools shut down for two months in the summer. +These things can be changed without huge cost. Some popular American charter +schools now offer longer school days and shorter summer holidays. And, without +going to Scandinavian lengths, America could invest more in its children: it +spends a lower share of its GDP on public child-care than almost any other rich +country, and is the only rich country that refuses to provide mothers with paid +maternity leave. Barack Obama needs to measure up to his campaign rhetoric +about ""real family values"". +Still, these nagging problems should not overshadow the dramatic progress that +women have made in recent decades. During the second world war, when +America's menfolk were off at the front, the government had to summon up the +image of Rosie the Riveter, with her flexed muscle and ""We Can Do It"" slogan, to +encourage women into the workforce. Today women are marching into the +workplace in ever larger numbers and taking a sledgehammer to the remaining +glass ceilings.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766022 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: pverveer +Sent: Sunday, January 3, 2010 12:53 AM +To: +Subject: (no subject) +Cover story in the Economist this week.

Women run many +of the world's great companies, from PepsiCo in America to Areva in France. +Women's economic empowerment is arguably the biggest social change of our +times. Just a generation ago, women were largely confined to repetitive, menial +jobs. They were routinely subjected to casual sexism and were expected to +abandon their careers when they married and had children. Today they are +running some of the organisations that once treated them as second-class +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766022 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766022 Date: 08/31/2015 +citizens. Millions of women have been given more control over their own lives. +And millions of brains have been put to more productive use. Societies that try to +resist this trend—most notably the Arab countries, but also Japan and some +southern European countries—will pay a heavy price in the form of wasted talent +and frustrated citizens. +This revolution has been achieved with only a modicum of friction (see article). +Men have, by and large, welcomed women's invasion of the workplace. Yet even +the most positive changes can be incomplete or unsatisfactory. This particular +advance comes with two stings. The first is that women are still under- +represented at the top of companies. Only 2% of the bosses of America's largest +companies and 5% of their peers in Britain are women. They are also paid +significantly less than men on average. The second is that juggling work and +child-rearing is difficult. Middle-class couples routinely complain that they have +too little time for their children. But the biggest losers are poor children— +particularly in places like America and Britain that have combined high levels of +female participation in the labour force with a reluctance to spend public money +on child care. +Dealing with the juggle +These two problems are closely related. Many women feel they have to choose +between their children and their careers. Women who prosper in high-pressure +companies during their 20s drop out in dramatic numbers in their 30s and then +find it almost impossible to regain their earlier momentum. Less-skilled women +are trapped in poorly paid jobs with hand-to-mouth child-care arrangements. +Motherhood, not sexism, is the issue: in America, childless women earn almost as +much as men, but mothers earn significantly less. And those mothers' relative +poverty also disadvantages their children. +Demand for female brains is helping to alleviate some of these problems. Even if +some of the new theories about warm-hearted women making inherently superior +workers are bunk (see article), several trends favour the more educated sex, +including the ""war for talent"" and the growing flexibility of the workplace. Law +firms, consultancies and banks are rethinking their ""up or out"" promotion systems +because they are losing so many able women. More than 90% of companies in +Germany and Sweden allow flexible working. And new technology is making it +easier to redesign work in all sorts of family-friendly ways. +Women have certainly performed better over the past decade than men. In the +European Union women have filled 6m of the 8m new jobs created since 2000. In +America three out of four people thrown out of work since the ""mancession"" +began have been male. And the shift towards women is likely to continue: by +2011 there will be 2.6m more female than male university students in America. +The light hand of the state +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766022 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766022 Date: 08/31/2015 +All this argues, mostly, for letting the market do the work. That has not stopped +calls for hefty state intervention of the Scandinavian sort. Norway has used +threats of quotas to dramatic effect. Some 40% of the legislators there are +women. All the Scandinavian countries provide plenty of state-financed nurseries. +They have the highest levels of female employment in the world and far fewer of +the social problems that plague Britain and America. Surely, comes the argument, +there is a way to speed up the revolution—and improve the tough lives of many +working women and their children? +If that means massive intervention, in the shape of affirmative-action +programmes and across-the-board benefits for parents of all sorts, the answer is +no. To begin with, promoting people on the basis of their sex is illiberal and +unfair, and stigmatises its beneficiaries. And there are practical problems. Lengthy +periods of paid maternity leave can put firms off hiring women, which helps +explain why most Swedish women work in the public sector and Sweden has a +lower proportion of women in management than America does. +But there are plenty of cheaper, subtler ways in which governments can make life +easier for women. Welfare states were designed when most women stayed at +home. They need to change the way they operate. German schools, for instance, +close at midday. American schools shut down for two months in the summer. +These things can be changed without huge cost. Some popular American charter +schools now offer longer school days and shorter summer holidays. And, without +going to Scandinavian lengths, America could invest more in its children: it +spends a lower share of its GDP on public child-care than almost any other rich +country, and is the only rich country that refuses to provide mothers with paid +maternity leave. Barack Obama needs to measure up to his campaign rhetoric +about ""real family values"". +Still, these nagging problems should not overshadow the dramatic progress that +women have made in recent decades. During the second world war, when +America's menfolk were off at the front, the government had to summon up the +image of Rosie the Riveter, with her flexed muscle and ""We Can Do It"" slogan, to +encourage women into the workforce. Today women are marching into the +workplace in ever larger numbers and taking a sledgehammer to the remaining +glass ceilings. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766022 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3426,C05766025,"H: THEY ASKED FOR 250 WORDS AND I WROTE SLIGHTLY MORE, BRIEFLY ON CHINA.

The Ugandan government +supports the bill because homosexuality and lesbianism are ""repugnant to the Ugandan culture,"" Buturo said. Still, it +favors a more refined set of punishments, he said.ln addition to formulating punishments for the gay people, the bill will +also promote counseling to help ""attract errant people to acceptable sexual orientation,"" said Buturo.The proposed +legislation has attracted criticism from gay rights activists, both locally and internationally, who argue that the law would +promote discrimination and hatred toward the gay community. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766048 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3443,C05766049,1PM CALL SHEET.,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-01-17T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0058/DOC_0C05766049/C05766049.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: 1pm call sheet.,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Sunday, January 17, 2010 12:51 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766049,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Marina told me she left.

I also emphasized that the +decision to proceed was taken only after careful consideration at very senior levels of State, DOT, and White House. +Thanks, again, to all for your support. +John Byerly +With help I'll make more calls next week and will arrange briefings for all who are interested. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766060 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3453,C05766061,1PM CALL MANIFEST,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-01-17T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0058/DOC_0C05766061/C05766061.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: 1pm call manifest,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Sunday, January 17, 2010 2:12 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766061,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Yes will do.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766061 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Sunday, January 17, 2010 2:12 PM +To: +Subject Re: 1pm call manifest +Yes will do. +Original Message ---- +From: H +To: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Sun Jan 17 13:44:01 2010 +Subject: Re: 1pm call manifest +The Canadians said they would do transcript of call so pls ask WHA to obtain one for me. +Original Message +From: Abedin, Huma +To: H +Sent: Sun Jan 17 12:52:09 2010 +Subject: 1pm call manifest +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766061 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3454,C05766064,1PM CALL MANIFEST,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-01-17T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0058/DOC_0C05766064/C05766064.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: 1pm call manifest,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Sunday, January 17, 2010 2:14 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766064,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Contacting with wha now.

Both Jean and +Lorraine are very excited about the opportunity to partner on this new area for the Secretary and provided me with +some very valuable insight and discussion on how we can partner and collaborate on programming and initiatives +together. +I also included the information from ECA —that we discussed in the document. The INR meeting was cancelled today and +will be scheduled for early next week. As I move around the Department and talk with other officials in the coming +week, I believe we will be able to build out a more robust Work Plan and garner some great collaborations on this +effort. +Additionally, in a recent conversation that I had with Governor O'Malley from Maryland, I shared with him that the +Secretary was launching a new effort that would assist state and local leaders with respect to their global affairs +portfolios. The Governor was extremely excited and remarked that he has some great idea for the Secretary about how +the Department can be a major value-add to local governments. He told me that he wants to be very engaged in what +we do in the Department in this area. I will be scheduling a time to meet with him and his economic team once my +position has been announced. He wanted me to let her know that he had been thinking about her and wanted to reach +out and did not know how and then I walked in and we began to have this discussion and he said — what a way to start +his year for 2010 — something coming to reality that he had been thinking about. +Also, Maura Pally in ECA forwarded me a meeting that I took with the Deputy Director of the National Lieutenant +Governor's Association. They were in town working on their upcoming Washington meeting. They too are very excited +about what we are planning and want to work very closely with us in the coming months as we launch this effort. Lt. +Governor Bill Bolling in VA is the current Chair. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766066 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766066 Date: 08/31/2015 +Please let me know if you need to make any additional changes.

Introduction +The next six months will be a critical time for establishing the Department's leadership in +bridging relationships for U.S. intergovernmental officials and their foreign counterparts, +defining the mission and role of the Office of the Special Representative for Global +Intergovernmental Affairs (""S/SRGIA""), and outlining an agenda that serves the needs of the +Department and these officials. Our approach will be strategic and integrated, working in +collaboration with Department bureaus and USAID offices to strengthen and deliver on the +Secretary's and Administration's priorities. +II. Key Objectives +The Special Representative for Global Intergovernmental Affairs will serve the global +needs of the U.S. intergovernmental officials and the entities they represent. The S/SRGIA will +also connect U.S. state and local officials with intergovernmental officials around the world, +promote local capacity building investments and programs to enhance country-led processes, and +facilitate the needs and goals of intergovernmental officials here and abroad consistent with +Department priorities. +III. Next Steps +This work plan describes activities that the S/SRGIA plans to initiate, grow and +implement in the next six months. To place the Work Plan in context, we describe below +S/SRGIA' s work-planning process. +A. Establish S/SRGIA Mission and Role in the Department. +Currently, no one and no office in the State Department has accountability to serve the +needs of intergovernmental officials, (e.g., Governors, Mayors, local elected leaders, the entities +that represent them) with respect to their global affairs portfolios. State and local officials' +concerns are typically routed on an individual basis through bureaus with the results reflecting , +the priority of the person in the bureau's estimation or the nature of the request. Priority +activities will be as follows: +1 +Sensitive But Unclassified +• Confirm the Secretary's support to focus on priority issues and countries; +• Join Department's meetings and conversations with visiting foreign state and local +representatives and dignitaries to establish S/SRGIA's role; +• Strengthen support on global intergovernmental affairs issues internally in the State +Department, by explaining the value of these stakeholders; +• Track deployment of resources assisting intergovernmental officials and leverage the +State Department's collective U.S. and global intergovernmental relationships; +• Follow and interpret international issues (e.g., food security, global health, climate +change, trade and economic development, energy) of importance to state governments; +• Promote dialogue between the Department (e.g., USAID, EEB, ECA, Public Private +Partnerships, Global Women's Issues, Consular Affairs, MCC and targeted Regional +Bureaus) and external constituents (e.g., Governors, Mayors, local elected officials, and +the entities that they represent) for more effective partnerships and relationships; and +• Collaborate with the Public Diplomacy and INR to create a survey of foreign +intergovernmental affairs officials to determine their needs and engage U.S. +intergovernmental officials to learn how the Department should help to further their +global goals. +B. Conduct Stakeholder Outreach: Obtain first-hand understanding of the needs of +U.S. intergovernmental officials. +State economies are increasingly globalized, and more and more U.S. companies are +competing in international markets and against firms worldwide. As the principal stewards of +their states' economic success, Governors recognize that the global marketplace presents both +challenges and opportunities and that states must address both to ensure their continued +competitiveness. Thus, S/SRGIA will develop its global intergovernmental affairs outreach +activities in partnership with its participating US and other intergovernmental and international +organizations. U.S. national organizations who serve governmental authorities include but are +not limited to the following: +• National Governors Association; +• National Lt. Governors Association; +• U.S. Conference of Mayors; +• National League of Cities; +• National Association of Counties/Large Urban County Caucus; +• National Association of States Attorney Generals; +• National State Legislatures; and +• Councils of State Governments. +Outreach is essential to many aspects of the Department's activities. S/SRGIA's outreach +objective is to promote and increase the general awareness of the benefits of the State +Department efforts in global intergovernmental affairs, especially among decision makers and +policy makers, educational entities, non-governmental organizations, public-interest groups and +public agencies. S/SRGIA will provide international outreach services to state and local elected +officials in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and all other inhabited U.S. +territories. Specific objectives are to: +2 +Sensitive But Unclassified +• Build state by state profiles, thus creating a set of priorities and identifying opportunities +for collaboration with state and local officials on their global projects and Department +priorities; +• Establish our target list of public officials to assist and nurture relationships with +principals and the organizations that represent them and their global needs; +• Create dialogue with the Governors and Mayors in preparation for the NGA and Mayors +Washington conferences in the fall; +• Travel to conferences and meetings within the United States and countries abroad +required to implement the Department's global intergovernmental affairs agenda; +• Develop a network of leaders, to collaborate and create partnerships; +• Coordinate meetings between Department of State experts and state and local officials; +• Support targeted elected officials trade missions and other official trips abroad; +• Develop a strategy for deliverables such as multilateral pacts and Memorandum of +Understandings on key State Department priorities that we will sign with responsible +parties; and +• Collaboration with EEB, to partner with them to engage state and local government +leaders in the bureaus enhanced commercial diplomacy efforts (e.g. the Administration's +National Export Initiative and EEB/Consular Affairs Business Visa Facilitation initiative, +etc.). +C. Conduct Stakeholder Outreach: Obtain first-hand understanding of the needs of +middle and senior foreign intergovernmental affairs officials. +Currently, ECA conducts a significant number of exchanges with foreign and +domestic government officials. None of ECA's programs target regions with the +objective of enhancing another country's government systems because the bureau's +authorities do not permit any type of training since everything must be done under the +auspices of enhancing mutual understanding. The most visible ECA program is the +International Visitor Leadership Program which in FY09 brought in 1,390 foreign +government officials at the state, city and national levels to gain knowledge around the +US political system and culture. To date, the bureau estimates the same number of +government visitors in FY10. +Thus, S/SRGIA will develop its global intergovernmental affairs outreach activities in +partnership with international organizations. International organizations who serve local +governmental authorities include but are not limited to the following: +• United Cities and Local Governments; +• Metropolis; +• The World Urban Forum; +• UN-HABITAT; +• Latin American and Caribbean Ministers of Housing and Urbanization; +• UN Advisory Committee of Local Authorities; +• The World Mayors Council on Climate Change; +3 +Sensitive But Unclassified +• Sister Cities International; +• Local Governments for Sustainability; and +• Municipal Development Partnerships which targets governments in Africa. +Priority activities will be as follows: +• S/SRGIA will collaborate with Public Diplomacy to conduct stakeholder outreach +with strategic countries — e.g. Af, Pak, Iraq — and key emerging powers (Brazil, +India, Indonesia, South Africa, Nigeria) and developing countries (Rwanda, +Ethiopia, Kenya, etc.) to obtain first-hand understanding of the needs of middle +and senior foreign intergovernmental affairs officials; +• Collaborate with [NR to assist us in gaining a better understanding of what +foreign intergovernmental affairs officials want to engage with their US +counterparts ranging from engagement on a host of common policy concerns, +opportunities, programs and connections. +D. Provide Leadership for Department Intergovernmental Capacity Building. +One of our largest challenges in most developing countries is the lack of capacity in the +government below the President and Prime Minister level. As the Department seeks to +implement development programs or conduct diplomacy, there is often limited local counterpart +capacity to do so with or to empower. S/SRGIA will work with USAID and State bureaus and +offices to provide connections and leadership development to build the capacity of +intergovernmental officials in countries around the world. Currently, millions of dollars of +USAID and ECA grants that support capacity building are typically carried out by contractors +and have results that are not transparent in their reporting or impact. S/SRGIA will partner with +existing offices to provide leadership for the investment in this space, accountability for the +outcomes and programming, and foster relationships between intergovernmental officials here in +the US with foreign partners to mentor and model what is needed. +S/SRGIA capacity building strategies will primarily be based on best practices derived +from studying successful and less-successful approaches. Within the next six months, S/SRGIA +will work in partnership with Department and USAID bureaus and resources. Priority activities +will be as follows: +• Identify State Department investments, canvass additional State Department dedicated +resources other than grant-making and assess the strength of the current environment +needed to advance the S/SRGIA's Secretary capacity building agenda for state and local +leaders; participate in QDDR process regarding this agenda; +• Develop an agenda for a high-level retreat on the formulation of a National Capacity +Development Strategy to present achievements to date, lessons learned and proposals for +institutional capacity development going forward; +• Work with the Chiefs of Missions and other diplomats in countries where capacity +building is critical to the success of our diplomacy and development efforts; +4 +Sensitive But Unclassified +• Amplify and sustain high quality and results driven support to institutional capacity +development by assisting in advocating for increased funding and building public-private +partnerships; +• Prioritize discrete initiatives to ""fast track"", based on importance, regional priorities (e.g., +Asia, Africa and Latin America), assessment of readiness, impact and feasibility and +translate priorities into actionable interventions; +• Develop a network of experts involved in existing capacity-building initiatives related to +global intergovernmental affairs and build partnerships; +• Define a coordinated approach and institutional responsibilities for supporting the GIA +capacity building initiative; and +• Identify opportunities for further collaboration with state and local officials on their +projects and Department priorities. +IV. Administrative Activities +• Standardize requests for assistance with projects related to policy, business, trade, +consular affairs, etc.; and +• Link the Department website to states websites and trade and development office +websites. +V. Budget and Staffing +S/SRGIA will require a budget and staffing to fulfill its mission. +VI. Assessment of Progress +The short term goal will be to engage U.S. intergovernmental officials about their global +concerns. The S/SRGIA office will become a significant resource for high-level State +Department engagement for U.S. state and local elected officials. The benefits of this new office +will be immediate and grow over time as our engagement deepens. Assisting US states and local +governments to expand their exports, promote locations for foreign investment and for +participation in State Department priorities are some of the short term benefits we hope to +achieve with respect to U.S. intergovernmental officials. +With respect to the global intergovernmental officials, in the short term, we expect to +work with our Regional Bureaus and Offices, (e.g., USAID, ECA, EEB, etc.) to assess the +current state of play and assist us with how we better target and leverage our assistance to this +constituency. +In the longer term, institutionally, we need to sustain relationships with our embassies +and missions overseas, so that they can assist state and local officials and their constituencies to +expand their global business base.

Introduction +The next six months will be a critical time for establishing the Department's leadership in +bridging relationships for U.S. intergovernmental officials and their foreign counterparts, +defining the mission and role of the Office of the Special Representative for Global +Intergovernmental Affairs (""S/SRGIA""), and outlining an agenda that serves the needs of the +Department and these officials. Our approach will be strategic and integrated, working in +collaboration with Department bureaus and USAID offices to strengthen and deliver on the +Secretary's and Administration's priorities. +II. Key Objectives +The Special Representative for Global Intergovernmental Affairs will serve the global +needs of the U.S. intergovernmental officials and the entities they represent. The S/SRGIA will +also connect U.S. state and local officials with intergovernmental officials around the world, +promote local capacity building investments and programs to enhance country-led processes, and +facilitate the needs and goals of intergovernmental officials here and abroad consistent with +Department priorities. +III. Next Steps +This work plan describes activities that the S/SRGIA plans to initiate, grow and +implement in the next six months. To place the Work Plan in context, we describe below +S/SRGIA' s work-planning process. +A. Establish S/SRGIA Mission and Role in the Department. +Currently, no one and no office in the State Department has accountability to serve the +needs of intergovernmental officials, (e.g., Governors, Mayors, local elected leaders, the entities +that represent them) with respect to their global affairs portfolios. State and local officials' +concerns are typically routed on an individual basis through bureaus with the results reflecting , +the priority of the person in the bureau's estimation or the nature of the request. Priority +activities will be as follows: +1 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 +Sensitive But Unclassified +• Confirm the Secretary's support to focus on priority issues and countries; +• Join Department's meetings and conversations with visiting foreign state and local +representatives and dignitaries to establish S/SRGIA's role; +• Strengthen support on global intergovernmental affairs issues internally in the State +Department, by explaining the value of these stakeholders; +• Track deployment of resources assisting intergovernmental officials and leverage the +State Department's collective U.S. and global intergovernmental relationships; +• Follow and interpret international issues (e.g., food security, global health, climate +change, trade and economic development, energy) of importance to state governments; +• Promote dialogue between the Department (e.g., USAID, EEB, ECA, Public Private +Partnerships, Global Women's Issues, Consular Affairs, MCC and targeted Regional +Bureaus) and external constituents (e.g., Governors, Mayors, local elected officials, and +the entities that they represent) for more effective partnerships and relationships; and +• Collaborate with the Public Diplomacy and INR to create a survey of foreign +intergovernmental affairs officials to determine their needs and engage U.S. +intergovernmental officials to learn how the Department should help to further their +global goals. +B. Conduct Stakeholder Outreach: Obtain first-hand understanding of the needs of +U.S. intergovernmental officials. +State economies are increasingly globalized, and more and more U.S. companies are +competing in international markets and against firms worldwide. As the principal stewards of +their states' economic success, Governors recognize that the global marketplace presents both +challenges and opportunities and that states must address both to ensure their continued +competitiveness. Thus, S/SRGIA will develop its global intergovernmental affairs outreach +activities in partnership with its participating US and other intergovernmental and international +organizations. U.S. national organizations who serve governmental authorities include but are +not limited to the following: +• National Governors Association; +• National Lt. Governors Association; +• U.S. Conference of Mayors; +• National League of Cities; +• National Association of Counties/Large Urban County Caucus; +• National Association of States Attorney Generals; +• National State Legislatures; and +• Councils of State Governments. +Outreach is essential to many aspects of the Department's activities. S/SRGIA's outreach +objective is to promote and increase the general awareness of the benefits of the State +Department efforts in global intergovernmental affairs, especially among decision makers and +policy makers, educational entities, non-governmental organizations, public-interest groups and +public agencies. S/SRGIA will provide international outreach services to state and local elected +officials in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and all other inhabited U.S. +territories. Specific objectives are to: +2 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 +Sensitive But Unclassified +• Build state by state profiles, thus creating a set of priorities and identifying opportunities +for collaboration with state and local officials on their global projects and Department +priorities; +• Establish our target list of public officials to assist and nurture relationships with +principals and the organizations that represent them and their global needs; +• Create dialogue with the Governors and Mayors in preparation for the NGA and Mayors +Washington conferences in the fall; +• Travel to conferences and meetings within the United States and countries abroad +required to implement the Department's global intergovernmental affairs agenda; +• Develop a network of leaders, to collaborate and create partnerships; +• Coordinate meetings between Department of State experts and state and local officials; +• Support targeted elected officials trade missions and other official trips abroad; +• Develop a strategy for deliverables such as multilateral pacts and Memorandum of +Understandings on key State Department priorities that we will sign with responsible +parties; and +• Collaboration with EEB, to partner with them to engage state and local government +leaders in the bureaus enhanced commercial diplomacy efforts (e.g. the Administration's +National Export Initiative and EEB/Consular Affairs Business Visa Facilitation initiative, +etc.). +C. Conduct Stakeholder Outreach: Obtain first-hand understanding of the needs of +middle and senior foreign intergovernmental affairs officials. +Currently, ECA conducts a significant number of exchanges with foreign and +domestic government officials. None of ECA's programs target regions with the +objective of enhancing another country's government systems because the bureau's +authorities do not permit any type of training since everything must be done under the +auspices of enhancing mutual understanding. The most visible ECA program is the +International Visitor Leadership Program which in FY09 brought in 1,390 foreign +government officials at the state, city and national levels to gain knowledge around the +US political system and culture. To date, the bureau estimates the same number of +government visitors in FY10. +Thus, S/SRGIA will develop its global intergovernmental affairs outreach activities in +partnership with international organizations. International organizations who serve local +governmental authorities include but are not limited to the following: +• United Cities and Local Governments; +• Metropolis; +• The World Urban Forum; +• UN-HABITAT; +• Latin American and Caribbean Ministers of Housing and Urbanization; +• UN Advisory Committee of Local Authorities; +• The World Mayors Council on Climate Change; +3 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 +Sensitive But Unclassified +• Sister Cities International; +• Local Governments for Sustainability; and +• Municipal Development Partnerships which targets governments in Africa. +Priority activities will be as follows: +• S/SRGIA will collaborate with Public Diplomacy to conduct stakeholder outreach +with strategic countries — e.g. Af, Pak, Iraq — and key emerging powers (Brazil, +India, Indonesia, South Africa, Nigeria) and developing countries (Rwanda, +Ethiopia, Kenya, etc.) to obtain first-hand understanding of the needs of middle +and senior foreign intergovernmental affairs officials; +• Collaborate with [NR to assist us in gaining a better understanding of what +foreign intergovernmental affairs officials want to engage with their US +counterparts ranging from engagement on a host of common policy concerns, +opportunities, programs and connections. +D. Provide Leadership for Department Intergovernmental Capacity Building. +One of our largest challenges in most developing countries is the lack of capacity in the +government below the President and Prime Minister level. As the Department seeks to +implement development programs or conduct diplomacy, there is often limited local counterpart +capacity to do so with or to empower. S/SRGIA will work with USAID and State bureaus and +offices to provide connections and leadership development to build the capacity of +intergovernmental officials in countries around the world. Currently, millions of dollars of +USAID and ECA grants that support capacity building are typically carried out by contractors +and have results that are not transparent in their reporting or impact. S/SRGIA will partner with +existing offices to provide leadership for the investment in this space, accountability for the +outcomes and programming, and foster relationships between intergovernmental officials here in +the US with foreign partners to mentor and model what is needed. +S/SRGIA capacity building strategies will primarily be based on best practices derived +from studying successful and less-successful approaches. Within the next six months, S/SRGIA +will work in partnership with Department and USAID bureaus and resources. Priority activities +will be as follows: +• Identify State Department investments, canvass additional State Department dedicated +resources other than grant-making and assess the strength of the current environment +needed to advance the S/SRGIA's Secretary capacity building agenda for state and local +leaders; participate in QDDR process regarding this agenda; +• Develop an agenda for a high-level retreat on the formulation of a National Capacity +Development Strategy to present achievements to date, lessons learned and proposals for +institutional capacity development going forward; +• Work with the Chiefs of Missions and other diplomats in countries where capacity +building is critical to the success of our diplomacy and development efforts; +4 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 +Sensitive But Unclassified +• Amplify and sustain high quality and results driven support to institutional capacity +development by assisting in advocating for increased funding and building public-private +partnerships; +• Prioritize discrete initiatives to ""fast track"", based on importance, regional priorities (e.g., +Asia, Africa and Latin America), assessment of readiness, impact and feasibility and +translate priorities into actionable interventions; +• Develop a network of experts involved in existing capacity-building initiatives related to +global intergovernmental affairs and build partnerships; +• Define a coordinated approach and institutional responsibilities for supporting the GIA +capacity building initiative; and +• Identify opportunities for further collaboration with state and local officials on their +projects and Department priorities. +IV. Administrative Activities +• Standardize requests for assistance with projects related to policy, business, trade, +consular affairs, etc.; and +• Link the Department website to states websites and trade and development office +websites. +V. Budget and Staffing +S/SRGIA will require a budget and staffing to fulfill its mission. +VI. Assessment of Progress +The short term goal will be to engage U.S. intergovernmental officials about their global +concerns. The S/SRGIA office will become a significant resource for high-level State +Department engagement for U.S. state and local elected officials. The benefits of this new office +will be immediate and grow over time as our engagement deepens. Assisting US states and local +governments to expand their exports, promote locations for foreign investment and for +participation in State Department priorities are some of the short term benefits we hope to +achieve with respect to U.S. intergovernmental officials. +With respect to the global intergovernmental officials, in the short term, we expect to +work with our Regional Bureaus and Offices, (e.g., USAID, ECA, EEB, etc.) to assess the +current state of play and assist us with how we better target and leverage our assistance to this +constituency. +In the longer term, institutionally, we need to sustain relationships with our embassies +and missions overseas, so that they can assist state and local officials and their constituencies to +expand their global business base. As related to our national capacity building strategy, in the +long term, we seek to empower and educate and build relationships with state and local officials +abroad. We also seek accountability for the outcomes of the programming and will provide +leadership for future investments. Going forward, we will tailor these investments to address +regional State Department priorities. +5 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766082 Date: 08/31/2015 +Sensitive But Unclassified +In addition, since there is a lack of USG harmonization of all of the relevant USG +programs, having S/SRGIA be the designated coordinator will allow DOS to take the lead in +synchronizing government wide programs that engage foreign government officials.

Really worth reading. +This Week in Copenhagen +December 12, 2009 +Editorial +We didn't expect much from the first week of the global warming conference in Copenhagen. Countries need to +do a little posturing before getting down to the hard work, which is supposed to start on Monday. But the +belligerent talk from China seemed to go well beyond the usual positioning. +The best hope is that the talks will produce an interim understanding under which industrialized countries would +commit to fairly precise targets for reduced emissions, and others, like China, to broader but measurable goals. +The industrial countries would be expected to help poorer countries shift to less-polluting forms of energy. +That would set the stage for a legally binding deal in 2010. But there is no chance of even an interim agreement +without the enthusiastic participation of China, the biggest emitter of greenhouse gases. China's absence would +give other developing countries — and the United States Senate — an excuse to do less than needed. +Beijing's recent pledge to slow the growth in emissions seemed like a positive shift in attitude. Then on +Tuesday, in a surprising show of defensiveness, China's top negotiator, Su Wei, said the greatest burden rested +with the industrialized countries and jumped on the United States, Japan and the European Union for not being +aggressive enough. Another Chinese official urged Washington to do ""some deep soul-searching"" and improve +its proposal. +Todd Stern, the chief American negotiator, responded correctly: With emissions in many industrialized +countries peaking or declining, just about all of the growth in greenhouse gases is expected to come from the +developing world between now and 2030, half from China. Rich nations must still reduce emissions sharply, +Mr. Stern said, but ""there is no way to solve this problem by giving the major developing countries a pass."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766084 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766084 Date: 08/31/2015 +China has also been demanding that rich nations contribute hundreds of millions of dollars a year to help poor +countries address the threat of climate change. Again Mr. Stern was blunt. Washington is prepared to help those +who need it, but given China's huge reserves and revved-up economy, he said he could not envision ""public +funds, certainly not from the United States, going to China."" +The most positive development has been a pledge by the European Union to contribute $10.5 billion over the +next three years to help poorer countries deal with climate change. The United States has said that it will make a +contribution but has not said how big it will be. +Transparency is another difficult issue that must be resolved, at least in principle, this week. There is no point in +setting targets, or threatening penalties for noncompliance, unless countries are required to report emissions +accurately. Transparency has never been one of Beijing's virtues, and emerging countries generally need aid to +create sophisticated monitoring systems. +Copenhagen's broadest challenge is finding an equitable way to distribute the burden of confronting climate +change. Despite some differences, the industrialized nations have pretty much agreed to trim their emissions by +15 percent to 20 percent from 2005 levels in the next 10 years, and by 80 percent by midcentury. And all seem +to be willing to make expensive investments to get there. President Obama will need help from Congress, no +sure thing. +A host of developing countries — including India, Brazil, Indonesia — have put broad goals on the table, +though in some cases they seem more aspirational than real. But the bottom line is that the hope for a +meaningful deal is vanishingly small if China doesn't sign on. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766084 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3472,C05766085,NYT EDITORIAL,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2009-12-12T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05766085/C05766085.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Fw: NYT Editorial,,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Saturday, December 12, 2009 1:39 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766085,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Whoops. ..to say: +HRC should come.

But the +belligerent talk from China seemed to go well beyond the usual positioning. +The best hope is that the talks will produce an interim understanding under which industrialized countries would +commit to fairly precise targets for reduced emissions, and others, like China, to broader but measurable goals. +The industrial countries would be expected to help poorer countries shift to less-polluting forms of energy. +That would set the stage for a legally binding deal in 2010. But there is no chance of even an interim agreement +without the enthusiastic participation of China, the biggest emitter of greenhouse gases. China's absence would +give other developing countries — and the United States Senate — an excuse to do less than needed. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766085 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766085 Date: 08/31/2015 +Beijing's recent pledge to slow the growth in emissions seemed like a positive shift in attitude. Then on +Tuesday, in a surprising show of defensiveness, China's top negotiator, Su Wei, said the greatest burden rested +with the industrialized countries and jumped on the United States, Japan and the European Union for not being +aggressive enough. Another Chinese official urged Washington to do ""some deep soul-searching"" and improve +its proposal. +Todd Stern, the chief American negotiator, responded correctly: With emissions in many industrialized +countries peaking or declining, just about all of the growth in greenhouse gases is expected to come from the +developing world between now and 2030, half from China. Rich nations must still reduce emissions sharply, +Mr. Stern said, but ""there is no way to solve this problem by giving the major developing countries a pass."" +China has also been demanding that rich nations contribute hundreds of millions of dollars a year to help poor +countries address the threat of climate change. Again Mr. Stern was blunt. Washington is prepared to help those +who need it, but given China's huge reserves and revved-up economy, he said he could not envision ""public +funds, certainly not from the United States, going to China."" +The most positive development has been a pledge by the European Union to contribute $10.5 billion over the +next three years to help poorer countries deal with climate change. The United States has said that it will make a +contribution but has not said how big it will be. +Transparency is another difficult issue that must be resolved, at least in principle, this week. There is no point in +setting targets, or threatening penalties for noncompliance, unless countries are required to report emissions +accurately. Transparency has never been one of Beijing's virtues, and emerging countries generally need aid to +create sophisticated monitoring systems. +Copenhagen's broadest challenge is finding an equitable way to distribute the burden of confronting climate +change. Despite some differences, the industrialized nations have pretty much agreed to trim their emissions by +15 percent to 20 percent from 2005 levels in the next 10 years, and by 80 percent by midcentury. And all seem +to be willing to make expensive investments to get there. President Obama will need help from Congress, no +sure thing. +A host of developing countries — including India, Brazil, Indonesia — have put broad goals on the table, +though in some cases they seem more aspirational than real. But the bottom line is that the hope for a +meaningful deal is vanishingly small if China doesn't sign on. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No: C05766085 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3473,C05766086,AFGHAN REPORTING,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-11-25T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_049/DOC_0C05766086/C05766086.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Re: Afghan reporting,H; 'Sullivanil@state.gov',Huma Abedin,,"Wednesday, November 25, 2009 4:49 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766086,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Readouts from all your calls r going to the relevant people.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766086 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN +PART B6 +From: Huma Abedin +Sent: Wednesday, November 25, 2009 4:49 PM +To: H; 'Sullivanil@state.gov' +Subject: Re: Afghan reporting +Readouts from all your calls r going to the relevant people. +Original Message +From: H +To: 'sullivanjj@state.gov' ; Huma Abedin +Sent: Wed Nov 25 16:41:42 2009 +Subject: Afghan reporting +Who do I respond to re these calls?

There is no point in setting +targets, or threatening penalties for noncompliance, unless countries are required to report emissions accurately. +Transparency has never been one of Beijing's virtues, and emerging countries generally need aid to create sophisticated +monitoring systems. +Copenhagen's broadest challenge is finding an equitable way to distribute the burden of confronting climate change. +Despite some differences, the industrialized nations have pretty much agreed to trim their emissions by 15 percent to 20 +percent from 2005 levels in the next 10 years, and by 80 percent by midcentury. And all seem to be willing to make +expensive investments to get there. President Obama will need help from Congress, no sure thing. +A host of developing countries — including India, Brazil, Indonesia — have put broad goals on the table, though in some +cases they seem more aspirational than real. But the bottom line is that the hope for a meaningful deal is vanishingly +small if China doesn't sign on. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766093 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3480,C05766097,ABU MAZEN,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2009-11-25T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_049/DOC_0C05766097/C05766097.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,RE: Abu Mazen,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Wednesday, November 25, 2009 5:22 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766097,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Netanyahu gave a press conference a few hours ago.

The +obvious: Your trip to NATO will be the final call on Afghanistan. Whatever you scrap together there +will be the remains of the day. There will be no more. The spare change in troops you pick up will be the +close-out deal. The Europeans will be less amenable to contributions in the future than the House +Democratic Caucus. +Consensus across the board in Britain—center, right, left--is that the Atlantic alliance--th.e special +relationship--the historic bond since World War II—is shattered. There is no dissenting voice, not one, +and there are no illusions. Opinion is unanimous. The bottom line is that the Obama administration's +denigration of the U.K is seen as the summation of the Bush era. Undoubtedly, you saw this week +Minister of Defense Bob Ainsworth's public criticism of Oba.ma's indecision and his accusation that the +president is indifferent and damaging to British interest. While Downing Street sought to ameliorate his +remarks with an oleaginous statement his view is simply what everyone—everyone—thinks. His clumsy +outburst was a classic gaffe--an embarrassing mistake because it reveals something true. The Chilcot +inquiry of Parliament, publicly conducting hearings on the origins of UK involvement in the Iraq +invasion, has put Bush's war on terror--and British involvement—on trial--and the calmly conducted +but eviscerating hearings will go on for another year. Blair is seen as either complicit on the basis of +knowing there was no casus belli or as an enthusiastically deceived tool. Nick Clegg, leader of the +Liberal Democrats, has stated that the reason support for the Afghanistan mission has cratered is because +of the lies told in the run-up to the Iraq war--another view universally held. Meanwhile, former UK +ambassador to the US Christopher Meyer has published his new book on the history of UK diplomacy +with concluding sections on the demise of the special relationship. He is not only being interviewed on +all British media but also has appeared as a voluble witness before the Chilcot commission. (I've +included a report below.) All British newspapers and journals have prominently published many pieces +within the last week on the decline and fall of the US-UK relationship. (I've included below the lead +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766148 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766148 Date: 07/31/2015 +editorial today from the London Times and the cover story from the Spectator--two of the most +resolutely pro-American sources.) The tone is not resentful, but reserved, disdainful and superior. The +US administration is considered blinkered, parochial and counter-productive. Conservatives are more +contemptuous than Labour, which feels abandoned and somewhat baffled. Rather than eager to be +Obama's poodle, Cameron would be superficially friendly and privately scornful. Class has a lot to do +with the contempt. A CamerOn government would be more aristocratic and even narrowly Etonian than +any Conservative government in recent history, sharply contrasting especially with the striving and +classless perspective of the grocer's daughter, Margaret Thatcher. And yet, and yet, the most recent poll +this week showed Labour within striking distance of the Tories, about five points down, the result of a +slight economic uptick. A hung parliament seems very possible. Given the distribution of voting +patterns, Labour need not win a plurality to have more seats than the Tories. The slight buoyancy for +Labour in this unique situation has only heightened anxiety about Obama's Afghanistan process, which +has excluded the British government from significant consultation and consideration of its interests. (See +the lead to Con Coughlin's Spectator piece.) Therefore, you might contemplate a brief trip to London +and public appearance with Brown on your way back from Brussels. +On the Western alliance, beyond its military part, NATO, there is much more to say and develop, but later. +Read three pieces below: +From The Times +November 26, 2009 +Atlantic drift +Washington's delay in announcing its Afghanistan strategy has left +Brown drifting. Obama needs to invest more time and attention in the +transatlantic alliance +President Obama declared on Tuesday that ""the whole world"" had a responsibility to help the US-led mission in +Afghanistan. He would, he said, soon lay out the ""obligations of our international partners"". Those partners +have been waiting a long time for the details. On Monday the President had his tenth meeting with his advisers +to work out his strategy for Afghanistan. He has now spent almost three months considering his options, and has +promised an announcement on deployments after the Thanksgiving holiday. +For Gordon Brown, this cannot come too soon. After the United States, Britain is the largest contributor of +troops to the Nato operation in Afghanistan. There has never been any suggestion that Britain has enough +soldiers to pursue a separate strategy or that it can operate independently of the US forces, which already +number some 68,000 troops. Until the White House decides whether to send an extra 40,000 or some figure +significantly lower than the number requested by General Stanley McChrystal, Mr Brown cannot properly plan +the best support strategy. +it is becoming sadly apparent that Britain has been left drifting by the delays in Washington, and that the +Obama Administration is largely unaware of the embarrassment this is causing the Government. More +worryingly, this does not seem to be a source of concern within the Administration. Downing Street, +diplomatically, turns aside any suggestion that it is frustrated by the nonchalance with which it is being treated. +But the insistent questions on Afghanistan, the anger caused by the steady stream of returning war dead and the +rapid crumbling of public support for the war cannot be answered effectively until Mr Brown is taken into +American confidence and seen as a full partner in the Nato campaign. +On the surface, the continuing high regard in Britain for the dynamic and articulate new President has masked +these growling complaints. Mr Brown is not suffering, as his predecessor did, from the taint of close association +with a deeply unpopular US president. On the contrary: like several European leaders, he is still eager to +position himself as close as possible to Mr Obama to clothe himself in some of the President's European +popularity. But within Government. there is already worry that Britain's voice counts far less than it did in the +past. This is not simply another instance of the persistent but pointless British anxiety over the so-called special +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766148 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766148 Date: 07/31/2015 +relationship; it is a justified concern that two of the main pillars of the Nato alliance should have policies and +strategies that are closely co-ordinated and sympathetically understood on both sides when fighting a war. +The fault, glaringly, is on the American side. The White House no longer seems to be monitoring the reactions +and political options of its transatlantic allies. It is not sufficient to suggest that the Administration sees little +point in investing time and diplomacy in a British government likely to be defeated in the coming general +election; wartime allies have interests that go far beyond the political make-up of the government of the day. Mr +Obama promised during his election campaign to revive trust in American leadership and to re-engage in +multinational diplomacy. In office, he has certainly voiced the same ideals; but he has invested little in giving +new substance and dynamism to the transatlantic relationship. +On Afghanistan, Mr Brown has sometimes been left speechless by Washington. He talks of sending 500 extra +troops. But until he knows the likely US strategy, he cannot outline his own. Atlanticism is always fragile on the +Left and was stretched to breaking point by Tony Blair. It is now being undermined by indifference in +Washington. Today America is enjoying Thanksgiving. Tomorrow it must look out again to its all +THE SPECTATOR +A. special form of disrespect +con +Wednesday, 18th November 2009 +Barack Obama's increasing disregard for Britain's views is no way to treat an ally whose troops have fought +side by side with America since September 11, says Con Coughlin +Washington +It says much about Britain's rapidly disappearing 'special relationship' with America that when I happened +to mention to some of our senior military officers that I was visiting Washington, they begged me to find +out what the Obama administration was thinking about Afghanistan. It is not just that the transatlantic +lines of communication, so strong just a few years ago, have fallen into disuse. There is now a feeling +that, even if we reached the Oval Office, there would be no one willing to take Britain's call. +For weeks now, President Obama has been deliberating over What the Afghan .strategy should be --- and +how many troops to send. If there is confusion in Washington, then Britain's strategy is not much +clearer. Gordon Brown has staged a recent flurry of activity on the subject, from writing misspelt letters +to grieving mothers to demanding that an exit strategy be established for the withdrawal of British +forces. Yet among our top brass, the general perception is that the Prime Minister has little interest in the +war. +It is often as if Brown regards the Afghan campaign as a dead fish that Tony Blair has left in the top drawer +of his Downing Street desk. It has infected his premiership with a foul odour, and he wants to be rid of it +as soon as possible. This explains his promise, on Monday, to set a timetable for the withdrawal of +British troops at the earliest available opportunity. The signal is sent that an exit is not just in sight, but +being approached. +Brown's approach hardly squares with his Foreign Secretary's assertion, made the next day in his address to +Nato's Parliamentary Assembly, that British forces should remain until the Afghans are strong enough +to take care of their own affairs. Miliband might have his faults, such as his obsessive enthusiasm for +Europe. But he is sound on Afghanistan where — unlike the prime minister — he has been an articulate . +and well-informed advocate of the Nato cause. One has the feeling that, if Mr Obama were able to talk +about Afghanistan, Mr Miliband could have a decent conversation with him. +But the very fact that these policy divisions are now starting to appear in London is symptomatic of a far +deeper malaise that lies at the heart of Afghan policy-making; it is a malaise that now threatens to +jeopardise the success of the entire mission. And this malaise is the absence of meaningful dialogue +between the White House and its hitherto most stalwart and reliable ally, particularly when it comes to +the messy business of confronting Islamist militants through force of arms. +We all had a good giggle when Brown was reduced to chasing the Leader of the Free World through the +subterranean kitchen complex at the UN's New York headquarters in September. One can understand +why Obama can think of a million better ways to spend his time than talking to our obsessive, nail- +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766148 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766148 Date: 07/31/2015 +chewing and electorally doomed prime minister. But given that Britain and America are currently +fighting a war together, one would hope that the true statesman would overcome any personal +reservations — and deal with Mr Brown because of the country he represents. +What really troubles British policymakers is that the collapse in the relationship is institutional, not +personal, and that the president has little interest in listening to what Britain has to say on many world +issues, even at a time when British servicemen and women are sacrificing their lives in what is supposed +to be a common cause. +The astonishing disregard with which Mr Obama treats Britain has been made clear by his deliberations +over the Afghan issue. As he decides how many more troops to send to Afghanistan — a decision which +will fundamentally affect the scope of the mission — Britain is reduced to guesswork. The White .House +does not even pretend to portray this as a joint decision. It is a diplomatic cold-shouldering that stands in +contrast not just to the Blair–Bush era, but to the togetherness of the soldiers on the ground. +One of the enduring cornerstones of the transatlantic alliance is the deep bond that exists between the British +and American armed forces. The strength of the American military might be many times that available +to Britain but, as any senior officer will tell you, on either side of the Atlantic, they are so close as to be +joined at the hip. From the moment they sign up, young American and British officers train together, +socialise together and — since 9/11 — have fought and died together. +The relaxed familiarity between the two martial traditions was reflected in the warmth with which General +Stanley McChrystal, the American commander of Nato forces in Afghanistan, referred during his recent +visit to London to British contemporaries such as `Jacko', General Sir Michael Jackson, former head of +the British army, and 'Lamby', Lt-Gen Sir Graeme Lamb, who is currently spending his well-earned +retirement in Kabul helping to devise a new counter-insurgency strategy to defeat the Taleban. So far as +Afghanistan is concerned, it would be fair to say that American and British military commanders are +singing from the same Afghan prayer mat. +Indeed, there was no shortage of enthusiasm on the part of the British military, or any of the other Whitehall +departments involved in the Afghan campaign, to support Obama when he announced last March a new +counter-insurgency strategy based on an Iraq-like military 'surge'. McChrystal was personally appointed +by Obama to make the policy a success, and General Sir David Richards, himself a former commander +of Nato forces in Afghanistan, was one of a number of senior army officers who quickly got behind the +new initiative. So, too, did the redoubtable Sir Sherard Cowper-Coles, our former ambassador to Kabul, +who drafted numerous briefing documents making the case for greater co-operation and cohesion within +Whitehall, and the development of a comprehensive counter-terrorism strategy that encompassed all the +participants, and not just the military. +So where are they now, all these bright initiatives? Why is it that the Foreign Office and our senior military +commanders are as much in the dark as anyone else as to what the strategy for Afghanistan is to be? We +don't know, because Mr Obama is too busy cosying up to his new chums in Moscow and Beijing to tell +us. And as we stumble around in the policy darkness, there is the inevitable tendency to make it up as we +go along. Hence the conflicting policy edicts issued this week by Messrs Brown and Miliband. +The trouble started in the summer, when Obama appears to have had a change of heart and, rather than +proceeding with the Afghan strategy he announced in March, decided to undertake a review of it instead. +And in the process of so doing he has provided us with a telling insight into how we can expect the +Obama presidency to function in future. +Much of the criticism, at home and abroad, concerning the Afghan policy review has tended to focus on +accusations of White House dithering which, after nearly three and a half months, is not entirely without +foundation. But what should be far more worrying for all those countries, such as Britain, that had +looked forward to co-operating with Obama's apparent desire to reach out and engage with America's +allies is the exclusivity of his style of decision-making — if you can call it that. +As General McChrystal has found to his cost, Obama and his inner circle of Chicago pots do not take kindly +to being second-guessed by those whose advice they seek, but have every right to reject. There is no +reason to doubt McChrystai's gloomy prediction — which is generally endorsed by Whitehall -- that +without an extra 40,000 Nato troops the Afghan mission is doomed to failure. But talk to any Obama +aide these days and they will tell you that, fine soldier though he undoubtedly is, McChrystal is +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766148 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766148 Date: 07/31/2015 +politically naive, spoke out of turn and now thoroughly regrets the day he ever set foot in a London think +tank, where he stated his case too explicitly for the White .HOuse's liking. One recent two-hour Afghan +strategy meeting spent 24 minutes discussing whether McChrystal was the right man for the job after all. +In other words, to use the phrase- ology popular in Chicago, he's dead meat. +Obama, meanwhile, has made his own deliberations so secretive that only about three people in the whole of +Washington — and, ergo, the rest of the world — know precisely what he has in mind, and none of them +is talking. Even President George W. Bush, who was frequently criticised for his arroaance and +unilateralism, was better than this. From 9/11 until the Iraq war, he kept Tony Blair and other trusted +allies (there weren't that many, let's face it) fully briefed on what he was planning — so much so that +Blair is now accused of colluding with him to invade Iraq from the spring of 2002. +But with Obama there are no regular video-conferences bringing Downing Street up to date on the latest +White House thinking. No special envoys making secret visits to London to keep the key players +informed. Instead we will have to wait, like everyone else, for the puffs of smoke from the White House +— which are now expected around the Thanksgiving holiday — to find out what Obama really intends +to do about Afghanistan. He is, in all too many ways, an AWOL ally. +Nor is it just on Afghanistan that we can discern a high-handed approach from the American president. Did +Obama bother to consult Britain before cancelling the missile shield system for Eastern Europe (the +early-warning detection system is, after all, based at RAF Fylingdales on the North Yorkshire Moors)? +No he did not. The Poles, who are rightly sensitive about their security being used as a bargaining chip +in negotiations with their super-power neighbours, had to make do with a late-night call from Hillary +Clinton on the eve of the announcement — the Poles understandably turned down the call, a breach of +both manners and protocol. In his keenness to befriend Russian President Dmitry Medvedev, had Obama +taken any account of the widespread European unease concerning the mood of resurgent nationalism +sweeping Moscow? Not a chance. +And to judge from his recent peregrinations around the Far East, it seems Obama is far more interested in +making new friends than taking the trouble to keep up with old acquaintances. The enthusiasm he +displayed when he bumped into Dmitry Medvedev, Russia's Prime Minister, during this week's Apec +summit in Singapore was considerably greater than he has shown for Many of his European allies. Not +for Medvedev the indignity of conducting important bilateral discussions in kitchens surrounded by vats +of boiling noodles.. And in Beijing Obama spent a convivial evening with President Hu Jintao, +discussing the evolution and histories of China and America. Being an. American ally has never seemed +so unrewarding. +There will, though, inevitably come a time when Obama discovers who America's true friends really are. +Sooner or later he will have to deal with the considerably more taxing issues of Islamist militancy, rogue +nuclear states and other tangible threats to the West's security, At that point, Obama will discover a +simple but essential truth. The world divides between those who support American values of freedom +and democracy, and those who seek to destroy them. +Few nations have been more committed to supporting those values with both blood and treasure than +Britain.

And we — the Americans, the British — have never really recovered from that because of +course there was no smoking gun."" +The US had first prepared for invasion in January but the date was later moved to March. ""All that said, when you looked +at the timetable for the inspections, it was impossible to see how [Hans] Blix [chief weapons inspector] could bring the +process to a conclusion, for better or for worse, by March."" +Meyer said he had been in favour of removing Saddam, He thought you did not need 9/11 or weapons of mass +destruction to justify confronting Iraq. Saddam had not lived up to the commitments given after the first Gulf war. He had +""the means and the will"" to build weapons even if he hid not have them at the time. +Meyer said he did not know what made the UK fix ""on a very large land force by our standards"". He believed it would not +have damaged Britain's standing in the US to have sent fewer troops to Iraq, but actively opposing the war would have +done. +Earlier Meyer said George Bush's administration was seen by many as ""running out of steam"" on the eve of the ""great +atrocity"" of the 9/11 attacks on the US. +It looked like an administration that had run into trouble very quickly, the former ambassador to Washington said. People +were saying the effort of getting big tax cuts and medical prescription benefits for older people through Congress had +""killed"" Bush, Meyer said. He added that secretary of state Colin Powell's efforts to narrow and deepen sanctions against +Iraq had failed and there was a ""huge bear market"" against Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary. +Meyer said attitudes towards Iraq were influenced to an extent not appreciated by him at the time by the ant-ex qcare +tng .3pon 1. US senators and others were sent anthrax spores in the post, a crime that led to the death of five +people, prompting policymakers to claim links to Saddam Hussein. +Meyer told the third day of Sir John ChiIcot's hearings that from the onset of the Bush presidency in 2001, there was +enthusiasm on the Republican right for arming and supporting Iraqi dissidents, ""mostly in London"", particularly the Iraqi +National Congress led by Ahmed Chalabi. +Powell was sceptical of such ""belligerent"" moves, concentrating on sanctions with Robin Cook, the then-British foreign +secretary, with whom. Meyer said, ""somewhat to my surprise"", he got on well. +On 9/11 Condoleezza Rice, then the US national security adviser, told Meyer she was in ""no doubt: it was an ai-Qaida +operation"". The following weekend Bush and his key advisers met at Camp David and contacts later told Meyer there had +been a ""big ding-dong"" about Iraq and Saddam. +It seemed that Paul VVolfowitz, Rumsfe|d'o deputy, argued for retaliation to include Iraq. Meyer said. It was not clear where +Rumsfeld stood. But later that month Bush and Tony Blair, on a visit to Washington, were agreed on a ""laser-like focus"" +on al-Qaida and Pakistan. +Blair's reputation had soared ""above all others"" because of his support for the US, the former ambassador told the inquiry. +But the anthrax scare had ""steamed up"" policy makers in Bush's administration and helped swing attitudes against +Saddam, who the administration believed had been the last person to use anthrax. +Rice fell more and more ""in the camp of Powell's enemies"". There Was a ""sea change"" in attitudes to containment but the +UK still had ""a legal problem"" with regime change. Meyer told British officials to argue that the alliance would be in better +shape if there was international support for military action. There was no need to argue that with the state department. But +there was with Dick Cheney, the vice-president, and Rumsfeld. +Asked about Blair's meeting with Bush at Crawford, Texas, in April 2002, where, some observers believe, the decision to +go to war was made, Meyer said: ""To this day I'm not entirely clear what degree of convergence was signed in blood at +the Texas range."" +But a speech by Blair the following day was, he believed, the first time the prime minister had publicaly said ""regime +change"". ""What he was trying to do was to draw the lessons of 9/11 and aPply them to the situation in Iraq, which led — I +think not inadvertently but deliberately — to a conflation of the threat posed by Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein. +""When I heard that speech, I thought that this represents a tightening of the UIQUS alliance and a degree of convergence +on the danger Saddam Hussein presented."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766148 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3507,C05766153,SPEECH,H,Muscatine.

Happy Thanksgiving! +2. On the eve of the president's announcement on Afghanistan the Western +alliance is near-broken. The obvious: Your trip to NATO will be the final call +on Afghanistan. Whatever you scrap together there will be the remains of the +day. There will be no more. The spare change in troops you pick up will be the +close-out deal. The Europeans will be less amenable to contributions in the +future than the House Democratic Caucus. +3. Consensus across the board in Britain—center, right, left—is that the +Atlantic alliance--the special relationship—the historic bond since World War +II—is shattered. There is no dissenting voice, not one, and there are no +illusions. Opinion is unanimous. The bottom line is that the Obama +administration's denigration of the UK is seen as the summation of the Bush era. +Undoubtedly, you saw this week Minister of Defense Bob Ainsworth's public +criticism of Obama's indecision and his accusation that the president is +indifferent and damaging to British interest. While Downing Street sought to +ameliorate his remarks with an oleaginous statement his view is simply what +evervone—evervone—thinks. His clumsy outburst was a classic gaffe—an +embarrassing mistake because it reveals something true. The Chilcot inquiry of +Parliament, publicly conducting hearings on the origins of UK involvement in the +Iraq invasion, has put Bush's war on terror—and British involvement—on trial—and +the calmly conducted but eviscerating hearings will go on for another year. +Blair is seen as either complicit on the basis of knowing there was no casus +belli or as an enthusiastically deceived tool. Nick Clegg, leader of the Liberal +Democrats, has stated that the reason support for the Afghanistan mission has +cratered is because of the lies told in the run-up to the Iraq war—another view +universally held. Meanwhile, former UK ambassador to the US Christopher Meyer +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 +has published his new book on the history of UK diplomacy with concluding +sections on the demise of the special relationship. He is not only being +interviewed on all British media but also has appeared as a voluble witness +before the Chilcot commission. (I've included a report below.) All British +newspapers and journals have prominently published many pieces within the last +week on the decline and fall of the US-UK relationship. (I've included below the +lead editorial today from the London Times and the cover story from the +Spectator—two of the most resolutely pro-American sources.) The tone is not +resentful, but reserved, disdainful and superior. The US administration is +considered blinkered, parochial and counter-productive. Conservatives are more +contemptuous than Labour, which feels abandoned and somewhat baffled. Rather +than eager to be Obama's poodle, Cameron would be superficially friendly and +privately scornful. Class has a lot to do with the contempt. A Cameron +government would be more aristocratic and even narrowly Etonian than any +Conservative government in recent history, sharply contrasting especially with +the striving and classless perspective of the grocer's daughter, Margaret +Thatcher. And yet, and yet, the most recent poll this week showed Labour within +striking distance of the Tories, about five points down, the result of a slight +economic uptick. A hung parliament seems very possible. Given the distribution +of voting patterns, Labour need not win a plurality to have more seats than the +Tories. The slight buoyancy for Labour in this unique situation has only +heightened anxiety about Obama's Afghanistan process, which has excluded the +British government from significant consultation and consideration of its +interests. (See the lead to Con Coughlin's Spectator piece.) Therefore, you +might contemplate a brief trip to London and public appearance with Brown on +your way back from Brussels. +4. On the Western alliance, beyond its military part, NATO, there is much +more to say and develop, but later. Read three pieces below: +From The Times +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 +November 26, 2009 +Atlantic drift +Washington's delay in announcing its Afghanistan strategy has left Brown +drifting. Obama needs to invest more time and attention in the transatlantic +alliance +President Obama declared on Tuesday that ""the whole world"" had a responsibility +to help the US-led mission in Afghanistan. He would, he said, soon lay out the +""obligations of our international partners"". Those partners have been waiting a +long time for the details. On Monday the President had his tenth meeting with +his advisers to work out his strategy for Afghanistan. He has now spent almost +three months considering his options, and has promised an announcement on +deployments after the Thanksgiving holiday. +For Gordon Brown, this cannot come too soon. After the United States, Britain is +the largest contributor of troops to the Nato operation in Afghanistan. There +has never been any suggestion that Britain has enough soldiers to pursue a +separate strategy or that it can operate independently of the US forces, which +already number some 68,000 troops. Until the White House decides whether to send +an extra 40,000 or some figure significantly lower than the number requested by +General Stanley McChrystal, Mr Brown cannot properly plan the best support +strategy. +It is becoming sadly apparent that Britain has been left drifting by the delays +in Washington, and that the Obama Administration is largely unaware of the +embarrassment this is causing the Government. More worryingly, this does not +seem to be a source of concern within the Administration. Downing Street, +diplomatically, turns aside any suggestion that it is frustrated by the +nonchalance with which it is being treated. But the insistent questions on +Afghanistan, the anger caused by the steady stream of returning war dead and the +rapid crumbling of public support for the war cannot be answered effectively +until Mr Brown is taken into American confidence and seen as a full partner in +the Nato campaign. +On the surface, the continuing high regard in Britain for the dynamic and +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 +articulate new President has masked these growling complaints. Mr Brown is not +suffering, as his predecessor did, from the taint of close association with a +deeply unpopular US president. On the contrary: like several European leaders, +he is still eager to position himself as close as possible to Mr Obama to clothe +himself in some of the President's European popularity. But within Government, +there is already worry that Britain's voice counts far less than it did in the +past. This is not simply another instance of the persistent but pointless +British anxiety over the so-called special relationship; it is a justified +concern that two of the main pillars of the Nato alliance should have policies +and strategies that are closely co-ordinated and sympathetically understood on +both sides when fighting a war. +The fault, glaringly, is on the American side. The White House no longer seems +to be monitoring the reactions and political options of its transatlantic +allies. It is not sufficient to suggest that the Administration sees little +point in investing time and diplomacy in a British government likely to be +defeated in the coming general election; wartime allies have interests that go +far beyond the political make-up of the government of the day. Mr Obama promised +during his election campaign to revive trust in American leadership and to +re-engage in multinational diplomacy. In office, he has certainly voiced the +same ideals; but he has invested little in giving new substance and dynamism to +the transatlantic relationship. +On Afghanistan, Mr Brown has sometimes been left speechless by Washington.

There is now a feeling that, even if we reached the +Oval Office, there would be no one willing to take Britain's call. +For weeks now, President Obama has been deliberating over what the +Afghan strategy should be — and how many troops to send. If there is confusion +in Washington, then Britain's strategy is not much clearer. Gordon Brown has +staged a recent flurry of activity on the subject, from writing misspelt letters +to grieving mothers to demanding that an exit strategy be established for the +withdrawal cf British forces. Yet among our top brass, the general perception is +that the Prime Minister has little interest in the war. +It is often as if Brown regards the Afghan campaign as a dead. fish +that Tony Blair has left in the top drawer of his Downing Street desk. It has +infected his premiership with a foul odour, and he wants to be rid of it as soon +as possible. This explains his promise, on Monday, to set a timetable for the +withdrawal of British troops at the earliest available opportunity. The signal +is sent that an exit is not just in sight, but being approached. +Brown's approach hardly squares with his Foreign Secretary's +assertion, made the next day in his address to Nato's Parliamentary Assembly, +that British forces should remain until the Afghans are strong enough to take +care of their own affairs. Miliband might have his faults, such as his obsessive +enthusiasm for Europe. But he is sound on Afghanistan where — unlike the prime +minister — he has been an articulate and well-informed advocate of the Nato +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 +cause. One has the feeling that, if Mr Obama were able to talk about +Afghanistan, Mr Miliband could have a decent conversation with him. +But the very fact that these policy divisions are now starting to +appear in London is symptomatic of a far deeper malaise that lies at the heart +of Afghan policy-making; it is a malaise that now threatens to jeopardise the +success of the entire mission. And this malaise is the absence of meaningful +dialogue between the White House and its hitherto most stalwart and reliable +ally, particularly when it comes to the messy business of confronting Islamist +militants through force of arms. +We all had a good giggle when Brown was reduced to chasing the Leader +of the Free World through the subterranean kitchen complex at the UN's New York +headquarters in September. One can understand why Obama can think of a million +better ways to spend his time than talking to our obsessive, nail-chewing and +electorally doomed prime minister. But given that Britain and America are +currently fighting a war together, one would hope that the true statesman would +overcome any personal reservations -- and deal with Mr Brown because of the +country he represents. +What really troubles British policymakers is that the collapse in the +relationship is institutional, not personal, and that the president has little +interest in listening to what Britain has to say on many world issues, even at a +time when British servicemen and women are sacrificing their lives in what is +supposed to be a common cause. +The astonishing disregard with which Mr Obama treats Britain has been +made clear by his deliberations over the Afghan issue. As he decides how many +more troops to send to Afghanistan — a decision which will fundamentally affect +the scope of the mission — Britain is reduced to guesswork. The White House does +not even pretend to portray this as a joint decision. It is a diplomatic +cold-shouldering that stands in contrast not just to the Blair-Bush era, but to +the togetherness of the soldiers on the ground. +One of the enduring cornerstones of the transatlantic alliance is the +deep bond that exists between the British and American armed forces. The +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 +strength of the American military might be many times that available to Britain +but, as any senior officer will tell you, on either side of the Atlantic, they +are so close as to be joined at the hip. From the moment they sign up, young +American and British officers train together, socialise together and — since +9/11 — have fought and died together. +The relaxed familiarity between the two martial traditions was +reflected in the warmth with which General Stanley McChrystal, the American +commander• of Nato forces in Afghanistan, referred during his recent visit to +London to British contemporaries such as 'Jacko', General Sir Michael Jackson, +former head of the British army, and 'Lamby', Lt-Gen Sir Graeme Lamb, who is +currently spending his well-earned retirement in Kabul helping to devise a new +counter-insurgency strategy to defeat the Taleban. So far as Afghanistan is +concerned, it would be fair to say that American and British military commanders +are singing from the same Afghan prayer mat. +Indeed, there was no shortage of enthusiasm on the part of the British +military, or any of the other Whitehall departments involved in the Afghan +campaign, to support Obama when he announced last March a new counter-insurgency +strategy based on an Iraq-like military `surge'. McChrystal was personally +appointed by Obama to make the policy a success, and General Sir David Richards, +himself a former commander of Nato forces in Afghanistan, was one of a number of +senior army officers who Quickly got behind the new initiative. So, too, did the +redoubtable Sir Sherard Cowper-Coles, our former ambassador to Kabul, who +drafted numerous briefing documents making the case for greater co-operation and +cohesion within Whitehall, and the development of a comprehensive +counter-terrorism strategy that encompassed all the participants, and not just +the military. +So where are they now, all these bright initiatives? Why is it that +the Foreign Office and our senior military commanders are as much in the dark as +anyone else as to. what the strategy for Afghanistan is to be? We don't know, +because Mr Obama is too busy cosying up to his new chums in Moscow and Beijing +to tell us. And as we stumble around in the policy darkness, there is the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 +inevitable tendency to make it up as we go along. Hence the conflicting policy +edicts issued this week b✓ Messrs Brown and Miliband. +The trouble started in the summer, when Obama appears to have had a +change of heart and, rather than proceeding with the Afghan strategy he +announced in March, decided to undertake a review of it instead. And in the +process of so doing he has provided us with a telling insight into how we can +expect the Obama presidency to function in future. +Much of the criticism, at home and abroad, concerning the Afghan +policy review has tended to focus on accusations of White House dithering which, +after nearly three and a half months, is not entirely without foundation. But +what should be far more worrying for all those countries, such as Britain, that +had looked forward to co-operating with Obama's apparent desire to reach out and +engage with America's allies is the exclusivity of his style of decision-making +— if you can call it that. +As General McChrystal has found to his cost, Obama and his inner +circle of Chicago pots do not take kindly to being second-guessed by those whose +advice they seek, but have every right to reject. There is no reason to doubt +McChrystal's gloomy prediction -- which is generally endorsed by Whitehall — that +without an extra 40,000 Nato troops the Afghan mission is doomed to failure. But +talk to any Obama aide these days and they will tell you that, fine soldier +though he undoubtedly is, McChrystal is politically naive, spoke cut of turn and +now thoroughly regrets the day he ever set foot in a London think tank, where he +stated his case too explicitly for the White House's liking. One recent two-hour +Afghan strategy meeting spent 24 minutes discussing whether McChrystal was the +right man for the job after all. In other words, to use the phrase- ology +popular in Chicago, he's dead meat. +Obama, meanwhile, has made his own deliberations so secretive that +only about three people in the whole of Washington — and, ergo, the rest of the +world — know precisely what he has in mind, and none of them is talking. Even +President George W. Bush, who was frequently criticised for his arrogance and +unilateralism, was better than this. From 9/11 until the Iraq war, he kept Tony +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 +Blair and other trusted allies (there weren't that many, let's face it) fully +briefed on what he was planning — so much so that Blair is now accused of +colluding with him to invade Iraq from the spring of 2002. +But with Obama there are no regular video-conferences bringing Downing +Street up to date on the latest White House thinking. No special envoys making +secret visits to London to keep the key players informed. Instead we will have +to wait, like everyone else, for the puffs of smoke from the White House — which +are now expected around the Thanksgiving holiday — to find out what Obama really +intends to do about Afghanistan. He is, in all too many ways; an AWOL ally. +Nor is it just on Afghanistan that we can discern a high-handed +approach from the American president. Did Obama bother to consult Britain before +cancelling the missile shield system for Eastern Europe (the early•-warning +detection system is, after all, based at RAP Fylingdales on the North Yorkshire +Moors)? No he did not. The Poles, who are rightly sensitive about their security +being used as a bargaining chip in negotiations with their super-power +neighbours, had to make do with a late-night call from Hillary Clinton on the +eve of the announcement — the Poles understandably turned down the call, a +breach of both manners and protocol. In his keenness to befriend Russian +President Dmitry Medvedev, had Obama taken any account of the widespread +European unease concerning the mood of resurgent nationalism sweeping Moscow? +Not a chance. +And to judge from his recent peregrinations around the Far East, it +seems Obama is far more interested in making new friends than taking the trouble +to keep up with old acquaintances. The enthusiasm he displayed when he bumped +into Dmitry Medvedev, Russia's Prime Minister, during this week's Apec summit in +Singapore was considerably greater than he has shown for many of his European +allies. Not for Medvedev the indignity of conducting important bilateral +discussions in kitchens surrounded by vats of boiling noodles. And in Beijing +Obama spent a convivial evening with President Hu Jintao, discussing the +evolution and histories of China and America.

And we - +the Americans, the British - have never really recovered from that because of +course there was no smoking gun."" +The US had first prepared for invasion in January but the date was later moved +to March. ""All that said, when you looked at the timetable for the inspections, +it was impossible to see how [Hans] Blix [chief weapons inspector] could bring +the process to a conclusion, for better or for worse, by March."" +Meyer said he had been in favour of removing Saddam. He thought you did not need • +9/11 or weapons of mass destruction to justify confronting Iraq. Saddam had not +lived up to the commitments given after the first Gulf war. He had ""the means +and the will"" to build weapons even if he hid not have them at the time. +Meyer said he did not know what made the UK fix ""on a very large land force by +our standards"". He believed it would not have damaged Britain's standing in the +US to have sent fewer troops to Iraq, but actively opposing the war would have +done. +Earlier Meyer said George Bush's administration was seen by many as ""running out +of steam"" on the eve of the ""great atrocity"" of the 9/11 attacks on the US. +It looked like an administration that had run into trouble very quickly, the +former ambassador to Washington said. People were saying the effort of getting +big tax cuts and medical prescription benefits for older people through Congress +had ""killed"" Bush, Meyer said. He added that secretary of state Colin Powell's +efforts to.narrow and deepen sanctions against Iraq had failed and there was a +""huge bear market"" against Donald Rumsfeld, the defence secretary. +Meyer said attitudes towards Iraq were influenced to an extent not appreciated +by him at the time by the anthrax scare in the US soon after 9/11 + .

The following weekend Bush and +his key advisers met at Camp David and contacts later told Meyer there had been +a ""big ding-dong"" about Iraq and Saddam. +It seemed that Paul Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld's deputy, argued for retaliation to +include Iraq, Meyer said. It was not clear where Rumsfeld stood. But later that +month Bush and Tony Blair, on a visit to Washington, were agreed on a +""laser-like focus"" on al-Qaida and Pakistan. +Blair's reputation had soared ""above all others"" because of his support for the +US, the former ambassador told the inquiry. +But the anthrax scare had ""steamed up"" policy makers in Bush's administration +and helped swing attitudes against Saddam, who the administration believed. had +been the last person to use anthrax. +Rice fell more and more ""in the camp of Powell's enemies"". There was a ""sea +chanae"" in attitudes to containment but the UK still had ""a legal problem"" with +regime change. Meyer told British officials to argue that the alliance would be +in better shape if there was international support for military action. There +was no need to argue that with the state department. But there was with Dick +Cheney,. the vice-president, and Rumsfeld. +Asked about Blair's meeting with Bush at Crawford, Texas, in April 2002, where, +some observers believe, the decision to go to war was made, Meyer said: ""To this +day I'm not entirely clear what degree of convergence was signed in blood at the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 +Texas range."" +But a speech by Blair the following day was, he believed, the first time the +prime minister had publicaly said ""regime change"". ""What he was trying to do was +to draw the lessons of 9/11 and apply them to the situation in Iraq, which led - +I think not inadvertently but deliberately - to a conflation of the threat posed +by Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein. +""When I heard that speech, I thought that this represents a tightening of the +UK/US alliance and a degree of convergence on the danger Saddam Hussein +presented."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766156 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3510,C05766157,CALL LIST,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C",116,2009-12-13T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05766157/C05766157.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Call list,"H; Abedin, Huma","Jiloty, Lauren C ",Huma Abedin,"Sunday, December 13, 2009 4:30 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766157,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Ok.

Calling her speech ""historic,"" Cox said Clinton's +commitment to a broad spectrum of human rights offers new hope in solving the desperation caused +by poverty. +""By advancing the idea that human rights, development and participatory and accountable +governance, are goals that mutually reinforce one another, Secretary Clinton has charted a course of +leadership recognizing the indivisibility of human rights that has been missing in our government's +mission abroad and at home,"" said Cox. ""Her statement today is an essential foundation for relieving +the suffering of billions in poverty, especially now when millions upon millions more people worldwide +are experiencing economic hardship."" +""We welcome Secretary Clinton's affirmation that the ""basics"" of well being -- food, shelter, health and +education —are not only human rights in and of themselves, but are also essential for the exercise of +other human rights. Only by addressing both freedom from want and freedom from fear will it be +possible to achieve genuine development for all."" +Cox, who attended Secretary Clinton's speech on the administration's 21st century human rights +agenda at Georgetown University, said he was especially grateful to hear Secretary Clinton outline +her determination to make a real and long-term difference by tackling human rights and development +as mutually reinforcing goals and affirm that the ""United States must lead by example in this area."" +Cox also welcomed Secretary Clinton's commitment to stand with human rights defenders worldwide +by shining a spotlight on their work and the legitimacy of their efforts. In her speech Secretary Clinton +highlighted the work of Women of Zimbabwe Arise, whose founders were recently honored at the +White House, and noted the State Department had sent high-level diplomatic missions to meet with +Aung San Suu Kyi in Myanmar. It is important that the administration continue to champion human +rights defenders around the world, especially those in powerful countries like China and Russia. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766180 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766180 Date: 08/31/2015 +Cox also praised the Secretary for raising the question of accountability abroad and at +home. ""Secretary Clinton rightly identifies accountability as the centerpiece of any successful human +rights agenda for the United States. But if the administration means what it says, then it needs to +appoint a bipartisan commission to investigate the abuses connected to counterterrorism policies +since September 11, 2001, follow through on the executive orders it already has committed to, close +the prison at Guantanamo and abide by international legal commitments to end torture."" +""The administration can't insist that other countries adhere to human rights protections while +continuing to detain people outside the rule of law at home,"" Cox continued. ""Discussion of human +rights can't be an empty rebranding exercise. The administration should promptly bring charges +against the Guantanamo detainees who can be legitimately charged with a crime, and release the +rest without further delay."" To date, 116 individuals have already been cleared for release but remain +unjustly detained in Guantanamo. +Noting that in his Nobel Prize speech in Oslo, President Obama stated that ""no nation can insist that +others follow the rules of the road if we are not willing to follow those rules ourselves,"" Cox Stated, +""Amnesty International commends the administration for its commitment to engage closely on human +rights. This is welcome change, but to make measurable progress we must prioritize accountability +for torture, implementation of human rights treaties, a strong Executive Order on Human Rights, and +the establishment of a national human rights commission."" +Amnesty International is a Nobel Peace Prize-winning grassroots activist organization with more than 2.2 million +supporters, activists and volunteers in more than 150 countries campaigning for human rights worldwide.

Obama, in contrast, had a 51 percent +approval and a 45 percent disapproval rating. +The Secretary of State has conducted several well-received foreign trips in recent months and has +not been as closely identified with the more contentious elements of the Administration's agenda, +including the health care fight, the federal deficit and the Wall Street bailouts. And she has not been +subjected to nearly the same media and partisan scrutiny as the president. Obama, meanwhile, has +been on national television on a daily basis tackling a wide range of difficult issues. +The poll was conducted by the nonpartisan Clarus Research Group from December 7th to the 12th, +and it asked for opinions of the top Cabinet secretaries and White House officials. Its finding on +Obama and Clinton mirrors that of earlier polls — in October, for example, a Gallup poll found that +Clinton had become more popular than the president. +Clarus president Ron Faucheux said one reason for Clinton's high poll numbers is her high approval +among Republicans — numbers he said position her well to run for president again in the future, if she +chooses. Clinton had 96 percent approval among Democrats, a healthy 57 percent approval among +Republicans, and 65 percent approval among Independents. Obama was nearly as popular among +Democrats — 93 percent — but his numbers among Republicans and Independents fell off +dramatically, at 19 percent and 33 percent respectively. +Clinton's Republican numbers are striking, given how intensely disliked she has been in the past +among GOP voters. In fact, part of Obama's appeal to Democratic primary voters in 2008 was that he +was more likely to be able to bridge the partisan divide than Clinton, who was by then a well-known +figure dating to her time as first lady in the 1990s. +""Republicans may see her as being more hawkish than other Democrats on foreign policy issues,"" +said Faucheux. ""It may be a way for them to bolster that position within the administration."" Asked +about any future Clinton presidential bid, he said, ""She's in good shape now."" +The next highest-rated cabinet secretary in the survey was Defense Secretary Robert Gates, who +notched a 69 percent overall approval rate with a 78 percent approval among Democrats and 63 +percent among both Republicans and independents. +""Both Clinton and Gates did well across the partisan board,"" said Faucheux. ""Everybody else did well +among Democrats but fell off among Republicans."" +Another trend spotted by the pollsters: Approval ratings inside the Beltway were higher than in the +rest of the country. ""These results show that the 'Beltway echo chamber' does not reflect the rest of +the country, even among news watchers,"" said Faucheux. +Among White House staffers and advisors, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs — who is often seen on +television — had the highest overall rating at 50 percent. Economic advisor Larry Summers had the +lowest approval, at 25 percent. +Summers and Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner — who are both closely associated with the +economy — both posted higher disapproval numbers than approval. Summers' disapproval rating was +41 percent. Geithner's disapproval rating was 45 percent, one point higher than his approval rating. +The poll also found that White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel, who is often viewed as having +sharp partisan elbows, scored much higher among Democrats, at 72 percent, than Republicans, at 13 +percent. +Among other major administration officials, Vice President Joe Biden had a 50 percent approval and +41 percent disapproval rating; Attorney General Eric Holder and HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius +both posted 41 percent approval and 35 percent disapproval; Presidential Adviser David Axelrod +scored 38 percent approval and 36 percent disapproval; and National Security Adviser James Jones +had a 30 percent approval and 23 percent disapproval rating. +Nora Toiv +Office of the Secretary +202-647-8633","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766222 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Toiv, Nora F +Sent: Wednesday, December 16, 2009 5:25 PM +To: +Subject Sending per Cheryl: Poll: Clinton approval soars +Politico +Poll: Clinton approval soars +By: Eamon Javers +December 16, 2009 03:00 PM EST +A new poll of avid news watchers shows that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has a much higher +approval rating than the man she once campaigned against and now works for, President Barack +Obama. +In the poll of 800 registered voters who are self-identified ""news watchers,"" Clinton had a 75 percent +approval rating and a 21 percent disapproval rating overall.

I think their points dovetail with one another. Posner argues quite +correctly that those who I described as giving up their individual freedom for the authoritarian structure of the right believe +they are gaining new life in the Kingdom of God, along with a sense of community and belonging. She illustrates this trend +in her excellent book on the rising trend of prosperity gospel theology in evangelical churches, Gpd's +Clarkson adds that the salvation narrative the movement offers to trauma-wracked individuals is one of its key draws. This +narrative often takes an explicitly political form, promising the replacement of a culturally decadent secular government +with a theocratically-inspired authoritarian system (see Newt Gingrich 's retrhatrika at David Horovvitz's Renaissance +Weekend for a recent example of this appeal). Or, as Gitlin said, the salvation narrative may promise eternal life in +Heaven -- after the enemies of God are slaughtered en masse in a display of pornographic violence, as portrayed in Tim +LaHaye and Jerry Jenkins' bestselling Left Behind Series. +During a time of economic decline, persistent cultural strife, deepening American involvement in far-off military conflicts, +and rapid environmental deterioration, is there any wonder that some have turned to apocalyptic salvation narratives +promising both a transcendent, everlasting future and violent retribution against perceived evildoers? A 2002 CNN poll +found that 59% of Americans believe that the prophecies in the Book of Revelations will come true. The startling number +reflected the still-fresh trauma of the 9/11 attacks, but suspect that it has held steady, if not risen. Indeed, mainstream +American culture is permeated by apocalypticism; the blockbuster movie hit 2012 is but one recent example. +spend several chapters in my book following the Christian right's ascent to the mountain top with George W. Bush's re- +election, detailing how the movement shrouded science and reason in the shadow of the cross, then observing as it swiftly +imploded during the Tern Schiavo charade. Because I completed my book days after Barad< Obama's inauguration, I was +only able to foreshadow the right's plan to undermine the new president. Having watched the right attempt to delegitimize +and literally overthrow Bill Clinton for eight years, I did not harbor any illusions about Obantia transcending partisan +division by becoming the _ +l'iberei pag:: +:caddwho o!.4.0._reunite .ArriericLl as many argued. +What I did not include in my book was any sense of where the Democratic left was going, or how this movement had +developed its own salvation narrative during the Bush era. Only a presidency as destructive and radical as Bush's could +have produced such deep levels of anxiety and desperation among progressives. When the Democratic primary began, +some progressives seemed to ache for a secular messiah to descend from the political heavens, reverse Bush's +disastrous legacy and save the country from itself.. +in their quest for a savior, progressives discovered Barack Obama. ""I serve as a blank screen on which people of vastly +different political stripes project their own views,"" Obama proclaimed in his book, The Audacity of Hope. As Obama's +primary battle against Hiiiary Clinton intensified, his rhetoric and the language of his supporters grew increasingly +messianic. At a rally in South Carolina, Oprah Winfrey referred to °barna as ""The One,"" a fusion of Jesus and Nleo from +The Matrix. When Obarria defeated Clinton in Iowa, he quoted from a Hopi Indian End Times prophecy that had become +popular among New Agers: ""W +: +s. oro?s we've '01:.en waiting. for.',' Moved to the point of ecstasy by Obama's victory +speech, Ezra Klein declared the candidate, ""not the Word made flesh, but the triumph of the word over flesh... Obarna is, +at his best, able to call us back to our higher selves."" +(Though he is not a progressive by even the wildest stretch of the imagination, it is worth noting that Louis Farrakhan, who +had consistently ordered his followers to boycott elections and who attacked black politicians from Harold Washington to +Jesse Jackson as tools of the white power structure, ' +.je.f., +- +.GrE‘id in no uncertain terms that Obama was the Messiah.) +Now that some of Obama's most zealous supporters are beginning to express grave doubts about his ability to deliver the +transcendent change he promised, I think it is time for them to consider their role in contributing to the problems °barna +faces with both his Democratic base and his opponents on the right. They embraced a secular salvation narrative that +°barna cleverly channeled to excite them and distract from his lack of progressive accomplishments. In the end, Obama's +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766243 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766243 Date: 08/31/2015 +messianization created false expectations while establishing political space for the right to undermine and delegitimize +him. +To be sure; Obama's salvation narrative was dramatically different than the dualistic, malignant version that prevails on +the Christian right. Obama never, to my knowledge, played to his supporters' dark sides by promising them holy retribution +against their perceived enemies. In fact, part of his appeal stemmed from his repudiation of partisan rancor -- there were +no red states where people reject science, demonize gays and attack minority rights. Until he was inaugurated, Obama +behaved like a secular Messiah in a world without a Devil. +In my book. I detail a series of experiments by a group of political psychologists seeking to provide evidence that the fear +of death inspires extreme conservative beliefs -- including apocalypticisrn. Their study was inspired by a theory of cultural +anthropologist Ernest Becker: ""The idea of death, the fear of it, haunts the human animal like nothing else; it is a +mainspring of human activity - designed largely to avoid the fatality of death, to overcome it by denying in some way that it +is the final destiny of man."" The professors discovered that time and again, their study subjects would register more +conservative responses to questions if they were first reminded of their own deaths. (See John Judis' excellent artide on +the studies for more). +The use of mortality reminders came in to play as soon as Obama was inaugurated. Almost immediately, the right +attempted to delegitimize him by reversing the phenomenon he relied on to win: While he attempted to serve as a blank +screen for Americans to project their aspirations upon, they projected their most fearsome inner demons onto him. During +the October McCain-Palin rallies, Sarah Palin and far-right surrogates like Joe the Plumber attacked Obama as an Other, +a strange outsider who did not share mainstream American values. Their intention was to make him as unfamiliar and +frightening as possible, and in doing so, to scare off wavering independent voters. By this time, it was too late in the +campaign for the tactic to take effect, so it extended into this year and peaked during the Fall Teabagger rallies and town +hall disruptions. +Teabagger activists transposed images of Stalin and Hitler onto Obama's face. (Their propaganda bore a disturbing +resemblance to the signs waved by right-wing Jewish settlers during rallies against Yitzhak Rabin that depicted the soon +to be assassinated Israeli PM in Nazi SS garb and as the collaborator Marshall Petain, two seemingly incongruous +images). Obama was a Muslim; Obama was a commie; Obama was a cosmopolitan globalist; Obama was a black +nationalist. It did not matter who Obama really was. The right simply wanted to convince America he was The Other. As +cynical as their tactic is, it has damaged Obama in large part because he offered himself up as ""a blank screen,"" defining +himself as he thought different audiences wished to see him, and ultimately not establishing a very clear identity at all. +The right has complemented its anti-Obama propaganda with false rumors designed to inject the language of death into +the healthcare debate. The single most damaging rumor, adopted from the cult of Lyndon LaRouche, refined by +healthcare industry lobbyist Betsy McCaughey. and popularized by Sarah Palin, was that Obarna's healthcare reform +proposal included a plan to implement ""death panels."" While the president pleaded for compromise and reason, the right +repeated the baseless charge over and over that he planned to pull the plug on grandma, euthanize the severely +handicapped, and kill the sick. Obama has not yet recovered from the damage the right's mortality reminders did to his +political standing. +Since Obama announced his plan to escalate the war in Afghanistan, and with the White House apparently poised to +scrap the public option and Medicare buy-in proposals to mollify Sen. Joseph Lieberman, the progressive left is going into +contortions. Turn on 1VISNIBC or read any major progressive blog and you will see former Obama zealots proclaim, ""Kill +the bill!"" while assailing the president as an empty suit. +The liberal left has become so disgruntled that a leading conservative talk radio host asked me recently if progressives +were considering a primary challenge to Obama. I laughed and stated my belief that despite his troubles, Obama would +win a second term. Whether or not that happens, those former Obama fanatics experiencing a crisis in faith should look in +the mirror. They demanded a secular salvation narrative and participated in the near-deification of the politician who so +eloquently delivered it to them. They now know that Obama is just a politician. What they have refused to acknowledge is +that he would not have fallen so hard had they not lifted him so high. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766243 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3561,C05766247,FW:,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-12-17T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05766247/C05766247.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Fw:,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Thursday, December 17, 2009 4:56 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766247,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766247 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Thursday, December 17, 2009 4:56 PM +To: +Subject: Fw: +Original Message +From: Rodriguez, Miguel E +To: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Thu Dec 17 14:54:18 2009 +Subject: Re: +Don't want you to think I'm ignoring your email.

Mr. Shannon is nominated to be the next +U.S. ambassador to Brazil. +Senator LeMieux stated: +As a senator from Florida, the gateway to Latin America, it is incumbent upon me to focus on U.S. policy as it +relates to the Western Hemisphere. It is my assessment that U.S. foreign policy in the hemisphere stands at a +critical juncture. Our actions in the region signal to all countries where we stand on our commitment to +respecting democracy, human rights and the rule of law. Our policy in Latin America cannot be transactional. +We must insist on human rights and other democratic institutions including the rule of law. Fortifying +democratic institutions and pursuing respect for human rights is the cornerstone of United States' foreign policy +in Latin America. +It was because of these concerns that I placed a hold on the nomination of Tom Shannon. This allowed more +time for me to evaluate Mr. Shannon's record and to ask specific questions of Mr. Shannon and State +Department officials. +Two countries that represent the direction of the foreign policy commitments of the United States are Honduras +and Cuba — Honduras, having just emerged from a constitutional process that resulted in the removal of its +president and elections, and Cuba, where a dictatorial regime continues to oppress its people and violate their +most basic human rights. In these two areas, the United States must be resolute — demonstrating through action +our insistence on democracy and respect for the rule of law. +During this process I have discussed my concerns for the region with Secretary Clinton. I am grateful for her +appreciation of the unique responsibility I have to the region as a Senator from Florida. I am confident +Secretary Clinton shares my concern about a reverse of the progress of democracy and the rise of authoritarian +strongmen in Latin America. I have received sufficient commitments from Secretary Clinton that the +Administration's policy in Latin America, and specifically in Honduras and Cuba, will take a course that +promotes democratic ideals and goals. +As a result of these discussions with Secretary Clinton and other State Department officials, I am pleased to +report several concrete examples of this commitment. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766253 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766253 Date: 08/31/2015 +In Honduras, the U.S. will continue to normalize relations with that country's government and President-elect +Lobo. Counter-narcotics cooperation will resume, and visa procedures will be normalized. +In Cuba, the U.S. will reopen the process for non-profit organizations to apply for pro-democracy grants, the +practice of including members of the Cuban pro-democracy movement in events at the U.S. Interests Section +will be restored, Title W of the Helms Burton Act will be enforced, and the awarding of Cuba Democracy +Assistance grants will be done in a fair and transparent manner. +Ensuring our neighbors in the hemisphere recognize our commitment to democracy, human rights and the rule +of law is fundamental. Leaders in nations that seek to destabilize the region are paying close attention to U.S. +actions and the way in which we carry out our policies in Latin America.

Jeff +2 Brothers' Grim Tale Of Loyalty And Limbo +To Leave Guantanamo Means Abandoning Family +By Del Quentin Wilber +Washington Post Staff Writer +Monday, September 28, 2009 +Bahtiyar Mahnut, a detainee at the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay, learned a few weeks ago that the +Pacific island nation of Palau had invited him to settle there. +It should have been cause for celebration, especially for a man who desperately wants to be free. But, to the +surprise of his attorneys, Bahtiyar has turned down the offer. He wishes to remain a prisoner, they say, so he can +look after his older brother, a fellow detainee. +The brothers' saga, as related by their attorneys and military records, could transpire only in the context of +Guantanamo Bay and comes at a critical juncture for the Obama administration, which is struggling to meet a +Jan. 22 deadline to shutter the 223-detainee prison. Their circumstances also highlight the diplomatic difficulties +facing the U.S. government as it tries to find places to send prisoners not destined for terrorism trials in the +United States. +The brothers are Uighurs, residents of China who are considered separatists by Beijing but are not enemies of +the United States. The brothers were picked up separately in Afghanistan and Pakistan soon after the United +States launched attacks against al-Qaeda and the Taliban in retaliation for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. +Since at least 2003, the U.S. government has tried to find homes for the brothers and 20 other captured Uighurs. +Five went to Albania in 2006; four were sent to Bermuda in June. At one point, U.S. officials were considering +the possibility of resettling Uighurs in the D.C. region, but that plan was scuttled under political pressure. Most +countries have been reluctant to accept Uighurs and risk angering China. +In recent weeks, however, Palau has agreed to accept 12 of the 13 remaining Uighurs, according to the Justice +Department. +The only detainee not invited by Palau was Bahtiyar's older brother, Arkin Mahmud, 45, who has developed +mental health problems that are apparently too serious to be treated in the sparsely populated country, said his +attorney, Elizabeth Gilson. +To make matters worse, according to Gilson and military records, Arkin is a prisoner only because he went +searching for Bahtiyar after the younger brother left their homeland eight years ago. +""This is just very difficult and sad,"" said Abubakkir Qasim, 40, a Uighur freed from Guantanamo Bay in 2006 +who considers himself a friend of both brothers. +""Bahtiyar is turning away freedom for his brother,"" Qasim said through an interpreter. ""His brother is only there +because of Bahtiyar. I feel sorry for both of them."" +Five other Uighurs have declined the offer for a variety of reasons, according to one of their attorneys, Susan +Baker Manning. The Justice Department says the government thinks that six to eight Uighurs will go to Palau. +The earliest they could leave would be Thursday, the Justice Department says. +Officials at the Defense and State departments and the Palau Embassy in Washington either declined to +comment or did not return phone messages. +In 2001, Bahtiyar and Arkin, both Muslims, were living with their parents and a younger brother in a small +house in bustling Ghulja in Western China. Arkin is the father of two children, then 8 and 5. The brothers were +not particularly devout but felt oppressed by the government of Beijing, which does not allow worship and +ensures the best jobs go to ethnic Chinese. The brothers were forced to survive as menial tradesmen. Bahtiyar +sold clothes; Arkin repaired shoes. +Bahtiyar wanted to strike out on his own. So, with $700 in his pocket, he headed for Pakistan. But he quickly +ran out of money and couldn't find work. He was worried about being sent back to China until a friend told him +about a group of Uighurs in Afghanistan that wanted ""to fight against the Chinese government."" +""If I went,"" he told military officials, ""I didn't have to pay for food or anything. So I went to Afghanistan."" +There, he lived with 35 other Uighurs in a camp of dusty roads and shacks in the southern mountains. The group +built houses and a mosque. They trained with one automatic rifle and did some push-ups, pull-ups and other +calisthenics, records show. +Within a few weeks of arriving at the camp, Bahtiyar managed to call home. His mother was very worried and +told Arkin to find his brother. ""He left because he was a dutiful son,"" Gilson said. +After the Sept. 11 attacks, the U.S. military began bombing Afghanistan and destroyed Bahtiyar's camp, +sending the Uighurs into the mountains for shelter. Bahtiyar and others crossed into neighboring Pakistan, +where they were arrested and turned over to U.S. authorities. +Meanwhile, Arkin made his way to Afghanistan, where he was captured by the Northern Alliance and turned +over the United States. At a military prison in Kandahar, the brothers saw each other across the razor wire. +In 2002, the military brought the brothers and 20 other Uighurs to Guantanamo Bay. Authorities alleged at the +time that the men trained at military-style camps affiliated with the Taliban or al-Qaeda. The accusations later +dissolved upon close scrutiny by the courts. +Arkin and Bahtiyar were confined in separate cells and, for months, were not able to talk. A Uighur interpreter +working for the military, Rushan Abbas, persuaded the military in 2003 to allow the brothers to meet in an +interrogation room. +When they saw each other, they hugged and wept. ""It was just so emotional,"" Abbas said. ""These brothers from +across the world coming together in an interrogation room for the first time."" +In 2005, Arkin remained in solitary confinement. He had a record of disciplinary infractions and had been +disrespectful to the guards, records show. +Not for the first time, Bahtiyar took steps to help his brother. Living in a more relaxed part of the prison, he was +granted a request to be moved to Arkin's camp. ""I missed my brother so much,"" he told military officials. +By the next year, the brothers had been cleared for release by the military. The government did not present any +evidence to justify their detention in a federal lawsuit brought the Uighurs seeking their freedom. In October, a +judge ordered them freed into the United States, but that decision was overturned on appeal. The Uighurs are +awaiting word, expected this week, on whether the Supreme Court will hear the case. +Last year, the remaining Uighurs were moved to a fenced-in camp that includes an activities room, video games +and books. Through it all, Arkin and Bahtiyar have struggled to cope with being prisoners, perhaps for years to +come. ""I know I'll die in here,"" Arkin told Gilson not long ago. ""In China, at least I would have a trial and +sentence."" +Since taking their case in 2005, Gilson has met with Arkin dozens of times. But she had only spoken to Bahtiyar +by phone. He had refused to meet with her, frustrated by lawyers always talking about what he considered +fruitless legal victories. +Two weeks ago, he changed his mind. Bahtiyar felt that he owed her an explanation for refusing Palau's +generous offer. ""Every day here is an eternity,"" he told Gilson through an interpreter.

The Uighurs are +awaiting word, expected this week, on whether the Supreme Court will hear the case. +Last year, the remaining Uighurs were moved to a fenced-in camp that includes an activities room, video games +and books. Through it all, Arkin and Bahtiyar have struggled to cope with being prisoners, perhaps for years to +come. ""I know I'll die in here,"" Arkin told Gilson not long ago. ""In China, at least I would have a trial and +sentence."" +Since taking their case in 2005, Gilson has met with Arkin dozens of times. But she had only spoken to Bahtiyar +by phone. He had refused to meet with her, frustrated by lawyers always talking about what he considered +fruitless legal victories. +Two weeks ago, he changed his mind. Bahtiyar felt that he owed her an explanation for refusing Palau's +generous offer. ""Every day here is an eternity,"" he told Gilson through an interpreter.

It'll be me, Joe Prueher, Charley Wilhelm, +Ron Fogleman, and Denny Reimer. The Chinese will be led by General Xiong Guangkai and include four other very senior +and respected Generals from the PLA. +The Chinese view this as a formal track one program and take it very seriously. We will meet with ADM Mullen and ADM +Keating in Honolulu and see GEN Cartwright at the Pentagon. It would be a terrific sign of the U.S.'s support for this +relationship if you were able join or host (I'd be pleased to fund) a very private dinner on the evening of the 21 or the +22nd of October.

We'll have a copy for you as well. +Afghan speech below +FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE +September 11, 2009 Contact: Senator Levin's Office +Phone: 202.224.6221 +Senate Floor Speech - Surge the Afghan Army +Remarks as prepared for delivery +Today we mark a solemn anniversary. Eight years ago this morning, our nation was attacked by terrorist extremists +motivated by hatred and bent on destruction. It is always appropriate to remember the shock of that day, the innocent +lives lost, and the efforts our nation has made since that day to ensure that Afghanistan, the nation that hosted those +terrorists, cannot again become a safe haven for terrorists seeking to attack us. But today is an especially appropriate +occasion to take stock of those efforts, and consider how best to continue them. +I recently returned from a trip to Afghanistan, where I was joined by my colleagues Senators Jack Reed and Ted +Kaufman. The situation in Afghanistan is serious. Security has deteriorated. But if we take the right steps, we can ensure +that Afghanistan does not revert to a Taliban-friendly government that could once again provide a safe haven for al +Qaeda to terrorize us and the world. +The Obama administration's new strategy, focusing on securing the Afghan population's safety and partnering with the +Afghan security forces in that effort, is an important start at reversing the situation in Afghanistan. The change in +strategy has led our forces, in the words of General McChrystal's Counterinsurgency Guidance, to ""live, eat and train +together [with the Afghan security forces], plan and operate together, depend on one another, and hold each other +accountable....and treat them as equal partners in success."" The Guidance goes on to say that the success of the Afghan +security forces ""is our goal."" +To achieve that goal we should increase and accelerate our efforts to support the Afghan security forces in their efforts +to become self-sufficient in delivering security to their nation — before we consider whether to increase U.S. combat +forces above the levels already planned for the next few months. These steps include increasing the size of the Afghan +Army and police much faster than presently planned; providing more trainers for the Afghan Army and police than +presently planned; providing them more equipment than presently planned; and working to separate local Taliban +fighters from their leaders and attract them to the side of the government as we did in Iraq. +While the security situation in Afghanistan has worsened, we still have important advantages there. The Afghan people +hate the Taliban. Public opinion polls show support for the Taliban at about 5%. In addition, the Afghan army is highly +motivated and its troops are proven fighters. +Despite those advantages, we face significant challenges. General McChrystal believes, and I agree, that we need to +regain the initiative and create a momentum towards success. General McChrystal worries, and rightly so, about the +perception that we have lost that initiative, and the impact of that perception on the Afghan people, their government, +al Qaeda and the Taliban. By contrast, if we can dispel that perception, we have a chance to convince local and lower- +level Taliban fighters to lay down their arms and rejoin Afghan society. +I believe the most effective way to retake the initiative in Afghanistan is with a series of steps to ensure that +Afghanistan's army and police have the manpower, equipment and support to secure their own nation. +First, we should increase troop levels for the Afghan army and police faster than currently planned. There are +approximately 90,000 troops in the Afghan army now, and that number is scheduled to go up to 134,000 by October of +2010. The Afghan police are scheduled to reach a level of 82,000 by the same time. For a long time, many of us have +urged the establishment of a goal of 240,000 Afghan troops and 160,000 Afghan police by 2013. The Afghan Minister of +Defense has strongly supported those numbers. It now appears that our government and the Afghan government are +prepared to accept those goals. But the need for additional Afghan forces is urgent. I believe it both possible and +essential to advance those goals by a year, to 2012. +Our own military in Afghanistan has repeatedly pointed to a need for more Afghan forces. In one sector of Helmand +province we visited last week, our Marines outnumbered Afghan soldiers by 5 to one. A Marine Company commander in +Helmand province told the New York Times in July that a lack of Afghan troops ""is absolutely our Achilles heel."" +What do we need to do to increase the size of the Afghan army and police? According to Afghan Defense Minister +Wardak, there is no lack of Afghan manpower; we've been assured it is available. +But we will need significantly more trainers. We asked General Formica, who is in charge of the American effort to train +Afghan security forces, whether such an increase is possible. He indicated he would make an assessment of what would +be necessary in order to meet the earlier timetable. In the meantime, we should also press our NATO allies with much +greater forcefulness to provide more trainers. If our NATO allies are not going to come through with the combat forces +they have pledged, at least they could provide additional trainers. +Larger Afghan security forces will also require more mid-level Afghan officers. In addition to supporting efforts to +graduate more Afghan officers from army academies, we should consider the recommendation of Defense Minister +Wardak that previous mid-level officers who fought the war against the Soviets return to service on an interim basis. +Minister Wardak emphasized that those men are well qualified and well motivated, and while they may not be trained in +the most current tactics, they nonetheless could temporarily meet the need of the enlarged army while the new group +of officers is trained. A larger Afghan force will need supporting infrastructure, such a barracks. While the available +infrastructure may not be the most modern, it is adequate and exists in sufficient amounts. +Larger Afghan security forces will require additional equipment. There must be a major effort to transfer a significant +amount of the equipment that is coming out of Iraq to the Afghan army and police. Such a significant commitment to +equip the Afghan security forces would also help demonstrate U.S. determination to take the initiative and create +momentum in the right direction. There is an enormous amount of equipment coming out of Iraq; our military is calling +it one of the greatest transfers of military goods in the world's history. A significant part of it could be transferred to the +Afghan forces, increasing their capability without weakening our own readiness. And yet there does not seem to be that +kind of a crash effort in place to do that. We need to obtain on an urgent basis a list of the basic equipment needs of the +Afghan forces and a list of how those needs could be met in a major program to transfer equipment leaving Iraq. +Rapidly expanding Afghanistan's military and police forces would address one of the major problems and risks we now +face there. General McChrystal told us he worries that waiting until 2013 for a larger Afghan force creates a gap in +capabilities that brings significant risk of failure. But by accelerating the training and equipping of Afghan forces by a +year, we address his concern. Depending on additional capability from Afghan, rather than U.S., forces, also addresses a +major problem of public perception in Afghanistan. The larger our own military footprint there, the more our enemies +can seek to drive a wedge between us and the Afghan population, spreading the falsehood that we seek to dominate a +Muslim nation. +Finally, we should make a concerted effort to separate the local Taliban from their leaders. In Iraq, large numbers of +young Iraqis who had been attacking us switched over to our side and became the ""Sons of Iraq."" They were drawn in +part by the promise of jobs and amnesty for past attacks, and in part by the recognition that the status quo was creating +horrific violence in their own communities. In their own interests and the interests of their nation, they switched sides +and became a positive force. +That same prospect exists in Afghanistan. Afghan leaders and our military say that local Taliban fighters are motivated +largely by the need for a job or loyalty to the local leader who pays them and not by ideology or religious zeal. They +believe an effort to attract these fighters to the government's side could succeed, if they are offered security for +themselves and their families, and if there is no penalty for previous activity against us. +General McChrystal himself has emphasized the potential of such re-integration to accomplish the same result as was +achieved in Iraq. Here is what General McChrystal said on July 28th: +""Most of the fighters we see in Afghanistan are Afghans, some with foreign cadre with them. But most we don't see are +deeply ideological or even politically motivated; most are operating for pay; some are under a commander's charismatic +leadership; some are frustrated with local leaders. So I believe there is significant potential to go after what I would call +mid- and low-level Taliban fighters and leaders and offer them re-integration into Afghanistan under the constitution."" +But this ""game changing"" possibility was apparently not factored into General McChrystal's assessment. There is no plan +yet to put in place a Sons of Iraq approach in Afghanistan. It is urgent that we lay out the steps that need to be taken to +involve local and national Afghan leaders in that effort. They alone can accomplish this crucial job, but first we and our +Afghan allies must draft such a plan on an urgent basis. And the potential positive impact of such a plan should be taken +into account as we consider the need for any additional U.S. military resources. +Afghanistan's people are grateful for our aid, but also eager to assume responsibility for their future. In a tiny village in +Helmand Province, we were invited to meet with the village elders at their council meeting, their shura. One hundred or +so men sat on the floor and chatted with us about their future and their country's future. When asked how long the +United States should stay, one elder said: ""Until the moment that you make our security forces self-sufficient. Then you +will be welcome to visit us, not as soldiers but as guests."" +Helping Afghanistan achieve self-sufficiency in their security is everybody's goal. On that there is little difference of +opinion, in Afghanistan's village councils or in the corridors of this Capitol. +Can we help Afghanistan reach self-sufficiency in security fast enough? Can we get there in a way that regains the +initiative and creates the momentum we need? Can we encourage those lower level Taliban to abandon an insurgency +headed by terrorists whose fanaticism they don't share? +I believe we can, by supporting a far more rapid growth in the Afghan Army and police; by providing more trainers more +quickly; by a rapid infusion to Afghan units of equipment no longer needed in Iraq; and by rapidly adopting a plan for the +re-integration of lower level Taliban fighters into Afghan society. In other words, we need a surge of Afghan security +forces. +Our support of their surge will show our commitment to the success of a mission that is clearly in our national security +interest, without creating a bigger U.S. military footprint that provides propaganda fodder for the Taliban. +I believe that taking those steps on an urgent basis, while completing the previously planned and announced increase in +U.S. combat forces, provides the best chance of success for our mission: preventing Afghanistan from again being run by +a Taliban government which harbors and supports Al-Qaeda, whose goal is to inflict additional catastrophic attacks on +the United States and the world. And we should implement these steps before considering an increase in U.S. ground +combat forces beyond what is already planned by the end of this year.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766340 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Wednesday, September 30, 2009 1:03 PM +To: +Subject RE: Sen.

The Malatya murder trial is revealing plausible links between Ergenekon, the +""deep state"" and the murders. But local officials -- who are almost certainly not in an Ergenekon-type group — are also +hostile to religious freedom. The Ergenekon case is part of a power-struggle between the ""deep state"" and the AKP +government, but it is unclear whether the current trials will advance freedom of religion and belief. Given the threats to +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 +the day-to-day security and religious freedom of non-nationalist Turks, whether the government effectively addresses +the roots of these threats will be crucial. +A court case in Turkey has pointed to the existence of a secretive underground ultra-nationalist organisation Ergenekon, +though this might merely be another name for the ""deep state"". The trial began near Istanbul on 20 October of 86 +alleged members -- from the police, army, business, politics and the mass media - on charges that they were plotting to +overthrow the current Justice and Development Party (AKP) government by 2009. +The ""deep state"" is the term used in Turkey for nationalist circles in the army, police, National Intelligence Organisation +(MIT) secret police and state administration, which regard themselves as the custodians of the secularist legacy of the +Republic's founder, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk (see F18News 28 June 2007). The MIT closely monitors religious minorities, +and some MIT officers do indeed believe in protecting religious minorities. But other MIT officers are staunch +nationalists and fully part of the ""deep state"" (see F18News 10 July 2007). +Opposition to religious freedom is widespread among the ""deep state"" and wider sections of political life and the +general public. This hostility has resulted in deaths and violent attacks, and has not been effectively addressed by the +government (see F18News 15 April 2008). +The anti-religious minority views of ultra-nationalist circles and the ""deep state"" were no secret, especially to the +religious minorities themselves. But reports in the Turkish media about Ergenekon have, perhaps for the first time, given +the wider Turkish public the details of the conspiracies. Many Turkish analysts think that the allegations made so far will +turn out to be true. +Members of Ergenekon are alleged to have maintained lists of people -- including Christians with a missionary +background - targeted for killing. The involvement of Ergenekon has been alleged in the murders of Catholic priest Fr +Andrea Santoro in Trabzon in February 2006 and three Protestants - Necati Aydin, Tillman Geske and Ugur YA%ksel - in +Malatya in April 2007. The MIT secret police is known to have maintained observation of the places where all four of +these Christians were killed (see F18News 10 July 2007). +The trial of those accused of the Malatya murders is revealing that there may be links between Ergenekon, the ""deep +state"" andthe murders. As Christian news service Compass Direct reported on 21 October, the lawyer Orhan Kemal +Cengiz, who leads the legal team representing the victims' families, states that there is a ""very dark, complex, +sophisticated web of relations behind the scenes."" +Indeed, the Ergenekon people not only seem to be the masterminds of the Santoro and Malatya murders (and of the +murder of ethnic Armenian journalist Hrant Dink), they even had a plan to kill the Ecumenical Patriarch -- or at least to +incite his murder in a way that could not be traced back to them. +Among those arrested in the investigation against Ergenekon was ultranationalist lawyer Kemal Kerincsiz. As well as +filing complaints against numerous writers for ""insulting Turkishness"" under the notorious Article 301 of the Penal Code, +he also brought a high-profile case of ""insulting Islam"" under the same Article against Hakan Tastan and Turan Topal, +Turks who joined a Protestant church. +Even the so-called Turkish Orthodox Church -- which has almost no followers and was apparently designed by its +founders as an irritant to the Greek Orthodox Ecumenical Patriarchate -- is revealed to have been closely linked with +such circles. This ""church"" has been publicly supportive of Kerincsiz's claims that Turkish Christians ""insult Turkishness"". +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 +Ergenekon is said to have used ""Turkish Orthodox Church"" buildings, and to be closely liked with those who run this +""church"". +Ergenekon-style nationalists are certain that almost everyone is against the Turks and Turkishness. Particular enemies of +Turkey are thought by these circles to be all of Turkey's ethnic minorities, particularly Kurds (some of whom are Alevi +Muslims), as well as non-Muslim minorities. These views have long been widespread even outside Ergenekon-type +circles (see F18News 29 November 2007). +Ergenekon-type circles collected information on groups within these populations -- it helped that they had close ties to +authorities with access to the personal data registry which records individuals' ethnic and religious affiliation. It is not +known if Ergenekon itself -- if it existed in the form that is claimed - sent spies into religious minority communities. +However, all religious minorities -- especially Christians -- have long had unknown people visiting their services. +Sometimes these visitors say they are there from the MIT secret police to ""protect"" them, though more often they +refuse to explain who they are (see F18News 26 July 2006). +Religious minorities doubt whether the police or MIT secret police would really attend their places of worship to protect +them: they are more likely to believe they are there to listen, watch and take notes. Even this year in 2008, believers +leaving services are asked who they are and why they have attended. The authorities want to know whether those +attending Christian churches are foreigners, local ""foreigners"" or possible converts. Ergenekon could have played a part +in such enquiries. +Many religious leaders have long been under surveillance by the MIT secret police. ""Walls have ears,"" is the constant +refrain in religious minority headquarters. Particularly close tabs were kept on Armenian Patriarch Mesrop Mutafyan, +who had two ""bodyguards"" from the secret police with him constantly. +Again it remains unclear if this surveillance is to protect them or to keep tabs on all their activity. That a grenade could +have been thrown into Patriarch Bartholomew's office from a small street outside the Ecumenical Patriarchate in +Istanbul's Fener district - which is under full and very visible police surveillance - shows that any ""protection"" is at best +ineffectual. Those charged with protecting religious leaders have not managed to stop threats against them. +Religious minority leaders live with threats constantly, whether through the media or directly. Patriarch Mesrop would +receive about 300 emailed threats each day -- whether from one individual or many is unknown. Unknown people watch +religious minority buildings, making sure they are seen and noticed by the religious minorities. +Perhaps the biggest impact so far of this constant atmosphere of threats is on the Armenian Apostolic Patriarchate, +Turkey's biggest Christian denomination. Mesrop Mutafyan, who was elected Patriarch in 1998 against the express +wishes of the Turkish authorities, has been forced to retreat into health-related seclusion. Many believe the severe +health problems he is suffering -- which have affected him both physically and mentally - are akin to post-traumatic +stress disorder. They believe these have been brought on by years of pressure from the media, the public and from the +Armenian diaspora, some of which has dubbed him a traitor. As well as opposing his original election, the Turkish +authorities also made trouble for him over the restoration of the Patriarchate several years ago. +Should Patriarch Mesrop not recover and be in a position to take up his functions again, this could threaten the future of +the Armenian Church in Turkey. The Turkish authorities are likely to insist -- as they have done up to now -- that the +head of the Armenian (as well as the Greek Orthodox) Patriarchate must be a Turkish citizen resident in Turkey.

This problem is of importance not just for the +Church but for the Armenian community as a whole. +However, it is clear that Ergenekon and the ""deep state"" are not the only obstacle for freedom of religion or belief. Local +officials -- who are almost certainly not in an Ergenekon-type organisation — continue to obstruct the work of non- +Muslim communities. This can clearly be seen when it comes to property disputes. +Roman Catholics, for example, face several difficult property battles, most notably in the southern coastal city of Mersin, +where they have a large compound which they have used since Ottoman times. The only document the Catholics have +confirming their ownership is a firman (decree) issued by the Ottoman sultan, which the local authorities do not +consider is valid. Successive court cases brought by the local authorities in the 1980s finally reached Turkey's Supreme +Court in Ankara in the 1990s, which ruled in favour of the Catholics. +Such ownership problems are faced by all the minorities, despite their widely differing legal status. As is the case with all +non-Muslim minority groups, Catholics do not legally exist. Furthermore, as their properties are not organised as +""community foundations"", their properties have no legal personality on their own. And as the Catholics do not legally +exist, the government at times argues that they therefore also cannot have property. This shows that despite +government claims, these property problems have not been resolved by the latest Foundations Law (see F18News 13 +March 2008). +In the case of the Catholics of Mersin, the local authorities re-started the dispute through the courts, in a case that is +now pending at the High Court. Catholics fear a negative ruling, which would force them to take their case to the +European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in Strasbourg. This would be extremely expensive and time-consuming, even +though this may turn out to be the only effective way for religious minorities to secure freedom of religion or belief (see +F18News 18 January 2007). +The authorities in Mersin argue that the Ottoman firman only allows Catholic people to construct a specific building (a +church) and did not grant them ownership of the land on which it was built. Similar court cases were brought in the past +over the Assumptionist Church in Kadikoy, Istanbul (ECHR case No. 26308/95). +The Mersin authorities' desire to confiscate Catholic property would leave the community with nowhere to worship, +though it remains unclear how far the authorities would go. They could take away legal ownership, while allowing the +Catholics to continue to use the church. In the past, authorities elsewhere have used such methods to confiscate +religious property ""legally"". +Another example is in Adana. The town's Jesuit-run Catholic church has long faced harassment from local people +attending a nearby wedding hall, which was built close to it in defiance of regulations. The mayor's office has said that +the wedding hall should be closed but has taken no action to enforce this. +Ancient cemeteries where Christians are buried -- such as in Samsun — or Christian sections of bigger cemeteries -- as in +Ankara - are also not being protected from vandalism, despite requests from the Christian Churches. In the Black Sea +port of Trabzon -- where Fr Santoro was murdered - the Christian cemetery is threatened with confiscation. Muslim +cemeteries face no such problems. +By contrast, spokespersons for the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate have pointed to two positive developments. They +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 +welcomed the January 2008 statement in parliament by the Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan that the issue of +whether its Patriarch, Bartholomew, is ""Ecumenical"" or not is an ""internal"" matter for the Patriarchate and that the state +should not interfere. Previously the authorities have responded ferociously to any claims that Bartholomew's religious +role extends beyond Istanbul's tiny surviving Greek Orthodox community. +Greek Orthodox spokespersons also welcome the July 2008 ruling by the ECHR in Strasbourg over the Buyukada +orphanage, particularly the finding that not only does the property belong to the Orthodox Patriarchate but that the +Patriarchate is an existing legal person (application no. 14340/05). +Erdogan's statement about the title ""Ecumenical"" is likely to have little immediate impact on the general public, which +continues to regard the Patriarchate with suspicion or hostility. The ECHR ruling should have an impact on other +religious communities which have so far struggled to assert their right to a legal existence. +Meanwhile a new party, the Law and Equality Party (Hak ve Esitlik Partisi), was created on 4 September to promote a +nationalist agenda. The party, founded by a former general prominent in the war against the PKK Kurdish rebels, is also +aimed at getting rid of Christians and ending Christian proselytism. The first sentence of the call to found the party -- +published as a full-page advertisement in many newspapers - attacks what it calls the ""colonisation"" of Turkey by +missionaries, presumably Christian. ""Turkish nation -- we know that you are fed up that your democracy is treated like a +child, that foreign representatives and missionaries run around on our soil and boss you around,"" it reads. +Although the party seems to be well-organised in Turkey's provinces, it remains unclear how serious it is and how many +votes it might be able to gather in an election. Nevertheless, the party reflects more widely-held chauvinist views, which +see no place in Turkey for non-Muslim minorities (see F18News 29 November 2007). +Public opinion in Turkey is becoming more hostile to freedom of religion or belief, and increasingly favours extreme +nationalism of the Ergenekon kind. The government's actions are favourable to these kinds of views -- even if not to the +Ergenekon group itself -- and it does not seem to want to act effectively to protect non-nationalist Turkish citizens. The +ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) is not itself an extreme nationalist party, but it could do much more to make +it unambiguously clear that religious and ethnic minorities are Turkish citizens with equal rights. +The AKP itself is under threat from Ergenekon-style views; indeed, those associated with the ""deep state"" recently tried +to have the AKP banned. A fight is underway between the Army and the old Kemalist ""deep state"" on one side and the +AKP on the other. But it is not at all clear that the AKP is necessarily in this fight to advance democratic values, including +freedom of religion and belief. +It also remains unclear whether the AKP will prevail. Visits by members of the General Staff to Ergenekon prisoners +ahead of the trial have been interpreted as a warning to the AKP not to go too far. +The court case against alleged key leaders and members of Ergenekon is merely the latest step in the power-struggle +between the ""deep state"" (of which Ergenekon appears to have been a part) and the AKP. That the judiciary -- quite +obviously pushed by the government -- has initiated the court case can be seen as proof that the AKP government is +fighting back against those groups in society and state that are striving to drive the AKP from power. +Whether the Ergenekon court case will prove to be a step towards real democracy in Turkey — leading to improvements +in the area of freedom of religion and belief -- is quite another question. It is not only the court cases on Ergenekon and +the Malatya murders which will decide this.

Given the threats to +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 +the day-to-day security and religious freedom of non-nationalist Turks, whether the government effectively addresses +the roots of these threats will be crucial. +A court case in Turkey has pointed to the existence of a secretive underground ultra-nationalist organisation Ergenekon, +though this might merely be another name for the ""deep state"". The trial began near Istanbul on 20 October of 86 +alleged members -- from the police, army, business, politics and the mass media - on charges that they were plotting to +overthrow the current Justice and Development Party (AKP) government by 2009. +The ""deep state"" is the term used in Turkey for nationalist circles in the army, police, National Intelligence Organisation +(MIT) secret police and state administration, which regard themselves as the custodians of the secularist legacy of the +Republic's founder, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk (see Fl8News 28 June 2007). The MIT closely monitors religious minorities, +and some MIT officers do indeed believe in protecting religious minorities. But other MIT officers are staunch +nationalists and fully part of the ""deep state"" (see F18News 10 July 2007). +Opposition to religious freedom is widespread among the ""deep state"" and wider sections of political life and the +general public. This hostility has resulted in deaths and violent attacks, and has not been effectively addressed by the +government (see Fl8News 15 April 2008). +The anti-religious minority views of ultra-nationalist circles and the ""deep state"" were no secret, especially to the +religious minorities themselves. But reports in the Turkish media about Ergenekon have, perhaps for the first time, given +the wider Turkish public the details of the conspiracies. Many Turkish analysts think that the allegations made so far will +turn out to be true. +Members of Ergenekon are alleged to have maintained lists of people -- including Christians with a missionary +background - targeted for killing. The involvement of Ergenekon has been alleged in the murders of Catholic priest Fr +Andrea Santoro in Trabzon in February 2006 and three Protestants - Necati Aydin, Tillman Geske and Ugur YA%ksel - in +Malatya in April 2007. The MIT secret police is known to have maintained observation of the places where all four of +these Christians were killed (see F18News 10 July 2007). +The trial of those accused of the Malatya murders is revealing that there may be links between Ergenekon, the ""deep +state"" and the murders. As Christian news service Compass Direct reported on 21 October, the lawyer Orhan Kemal +Cengiz, who leads the legal team representing the victims' families, states that there is a ""very dark, complex, +sophisticated web of relations behind the scenes."" +Indeed, the Ergenekon people not only seem to be the masterminds of the Santoro and Malatya murders (and of the +murder of ethnic Armenian journalist Hrant Dink), they even had a plan to kill the Ecumenical Patriarch -- or at least to +incite his murder in a way that could not be traced back to them. +Among those arrested in the investigation against Ergenekon was ultranationalist lawyer Kemal Kerincsiz. As well as +filing complaints against numerous writers for ""insulting Turkishness"" under the notorious Article 301 of the Penal Code, +he also brought a high-profile case of ""insulting Islam"" under the same Article against Hakan Tastan and Turan Topal, +Turks who joined a Protestant church. +Even the so-called Turkish Orthodox Church -- which has almost no followers and was apparently designed by its +founders as an irritant to the Greek Orthodox Ecumenical Patriarchate -- is revealed to have been closely linked with +such circles. This ""church"" has been publicly supportive of Kerincsiz's claims that Turkish Christians ""insult Turkishness"". +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 +Ergenekon is said to have used ""Turkish Orthodox Church"" buildings, and to be closely liked with those who run this +""church"". +Ergenekon-style nationalists are certain that almost everyone is against the Turks and Turkishness. Particular enemies of +Turkey are thought by these circles to be all of Turkey's ethnic minorities, particularly Kurds (some of whom are Alevi +Muslims), as well as non-Muslim minorities. These views have long been widespread even outside Ergenekon-type +circles (see F18News 29 November 2007). +Ergenekon-type circles collected information on groups within these populations -- it helped that they had close ties to +authorities with access to the personal data registry which records individuals' ethnic and religious affiliation. It is not +known if Ergenekon itself -- if it existed in the form that is claimed - sent spies into religious minority communities. +However, all religious minorities -- especially Christians -- have long had unknown people visiting their services. +Sometimes these visitors say they are there from the MIT secret police to ""protect"" them, though more often they +refuse to explain who they are (see F18News 26 July 2006). +Religious minorities doubt whether the police or MIT secret police would really attend their places of worship to protect +them: they are more likely to believe they are there to listen, watch and take notes. Even this year in 2008, believers +leaving services are asked who they are and why they have attended. The authorities want to know whether those +attending Christian churches are foreigners, local ""foreigners"" or possible converts. Ergenekon could have played a part +in such enquiries. +Many religious leaders have long been under surveillance by the MIT secret police. ""Walls have ears,"" is the constant +refrain in religious minority headquarters. Particularly close tabs were kept on Armenian Patriarch Mesrop Mutafyan, +who had two ""bodyguards"" from the secret police with him constantly. +Again it remains unclear if this surveillance is to protect them or to keep tabs on all their activity. That a grenade could +have been thrown into Patriarch Bartholomew's office from a small street outside the Ecumenical Patriarchate in +Istanbul's Fener district - which is under full and very visible police surveillance - shows that any ""protection"" is at best +ineffectual. Those charged with protecting religious leaders have not managed to stop threats against them. +Religious minority leaders live with threats constantly, whether through the media or directly. Patriarch Mesrop would +receive about 300 emailed threats each day -- whether from one individual or many is unknown. Unknown people watch +religious minority buildings, making sure they are seen and noticed by the religious minorities. +Perhaps the biggest impact so far of this constant atmosphere of threats is on the Armenian Apostolic Patriarchate, +Turkey's biggest Christian denomination. Mesrop Mutafyan, who was elected Patriarch in 1998 against the express +wishes of the Turkish authorities, has been forced to retreat into health-related seclusion. Many believe the severe +health problems he is suffering -- which have affected him both physically and mentally - are akin to post-traumatic +stress disorder. They believe these have been brought on by years of pressure from the media, the public and from the +Armenian diaspora, some of which has dubbed him a traitor. As well as opposing his original election, the Turkish +authorities also made trouble for him over the restoration of the Patriarchate several years ago. +Should Patriarch Mesrop not recover and be in a position to take up his functions again, this could threaten the future of +the Armenian Church in Turkey. The Turkish authorities are likely to insist -- as they have done up to now -- that the +head of the Armenian (as well as the Greek Orthodox) Patriarchate must be a Turkish citizen resident in Turkey.

This problem is of importance not just for the +Church but for the Armenian community as a whole. +However, it is clear that Ergenekon and the ""deep state"" are not the only obstacle for freedom of religion or belief. Local +officials -- who are almost certainly not in an Ergenekon-type organisation continue to obstruct the work of non- +Muslim communities. This can clearly be seen when it comes to property disputes. +Roman Catholics, for example, face several difficult property battles, most notably in the southern coastal city of Mersin, +where they have a large compound which they have used since Ottoman times. The only document the Catholics have +confirming their ownership is a firman (decree) issued by the Ottoman sultan, which the local authorities do not +consider is valid. Successive court cases brought by the local authorities in the 1980s finally reached Turkey's Supreme +Court in Ankara in the 1990s, which ruled in favour of the Catholics. +Such ownership problems are faced by all the minorities, despite their widely differing legal status. As is the case with all +non-Muslim minority groups, Catholics do not legally exist. Furthermore, as their properties are not organised as +""community foundations"", their properties have no legal personality on their own. And as the Catholics do not legally +exist, the government at times argues that they therefore also cannot have property. This shows that despite +government claims, these property problems have not been resolved by the latest Foundations Law (see F18News 13 +March 2008). +In the case of the Catholics of Mersin, the local authorities re-started the dispute through the courts, in a case that is +now pending at the High Court. Catholics fear a negative ruling, which would force them to take their case to the +European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) in Strasbourg. This would be extremely expensive and time-consuming, even +though this may turn out to be the only effective way for religious minorities to secure freedom of religion or belief (see +F18News 18 January 2007). +The authorities in Mersin argue that the Ottoman firman only allows Catholic people to construct a specific building (a +church) and did not grant them ownership of the land on which it was built. Similar court cases were brought in the past +over the Assumptionist Church in Kadikoy, Istanbul (ECHR case No. 26308/95). +The Mersin authorities' desire to confiscate Catholic property would leave the community with nowhere to worship, +though it remains unclear how far the authorities would go. They could take away legal ownership, while allowing the +Catholics to continue to use the church. In the past, authorities elsewhere have used such methods to confiscate +religious property ""legally"". +Another example is in Adana. The town's Jesuit-run. Catholic church has long faced harassment from local people +attending a nearby wedding hall, which was built close to it in defiance of regulations. The mayor's office has said that +the wedding hall should be closed but has taken no action to enforce this. +Ancient cemeteries where Christians are buried -- such as in Samsun — or Christian sections of bigger cemeteries -- as in +Ankara - are also not being protected from vandalism, despite requests from the Christian Churches. In the Black Sea +port of Trabzon -- where Fr Santoro was murdered - the Christian cemetery is threatened with confiscation. Muslim +cemeteries face no such problems. +By contrast, spokespersons for the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate have pointed to two positive developments. They +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766344 Date: 07/31/2015 +welcomed the January 2008 statement in parliament by the Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan that the issue of +whether its Patriarch, Bartholomew, is ""Ecumenical"" or not is an ""internal"" matter for the Patriarchate and that the state +should not interfere. Previously the authorities have responded ferociously to any claims that Bartholomew's religious +role extends beyond Istanbul's tiny surviving Greek Orthodox community. +Greek Orthodox spokespersons also welcome the July 2008 ruling by the ECHR in Strasbourg over the Buyukada +orphanage, particularly the finding that not only does the property belong to the Orthodox Patriarchate but that the +Patriarchate is an existing legal person (application no. 14340/05). +Erdogan's statement about the title ""Ecumenical"" is likely to have little immediate impact on the general public, which +continues to regard the Patriarchate with suspicion or hostility. The ECHR ruling should have an impact on other +religious communities which have so far struggled to assert their right to a legal existence. +Meanwhile a new party, the Law and Equality Party (Hak ve Esitlik Partisi), was created on 4 September to promote a +nationalist agenda. The party, founded by a former general prominent in the war against the PKK Kurdish rebels, is also +aimed at getting rid of Christians and ending Christian proselytism. The first sentence of the call to found the party-- +published as a full-page advertisement in many newspapers - attacks what it calls the ""colonisation"" of Turkey by +missionaries, presumably Christian. ""Turkish nation -- we know that you are fed up that your democracy is treated like a +child, that foreign representatives and missionaries run around on our soil and boss you around,"" it reads. +Although the party seems to be well-organised in Turkey's provinces, it remains unclear how serious it is and how many +votes it might be able to gather in an election. Nevertheless, the party reflects more widely-held chauvinist views, which +see no place in Turkey for non-Muslim minorities (see F18News 29 November 2007). +Public opinion in Turkey is becoming more hostile to freedom of religion or belief, and increasingly favours extreme +nationalism of the Ergenekon kind. The government's actions are favourable to these kinds of views -- even if not to the +Ergenekon group itself -- and it does not seem to want to act effectively to protect non-nationalist Turkish citizens. The +ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) is not itself an extreme nationalist party, but it could do much more to make +it unambiguously clear that religious and ethnic minorities are Turkish citizens with equal rights. +The AKP itself is under threat from Ergenekon-style views; indeed, those associated with the ""deep state"" recently tried +to have the AKP banned. A fight is underway between the Army and the old Kemalist ""deep state"" on one side and the +AKP on the other. But it is not at all clear that the AKP is necessarily in this fight to advance democratic values, including +freedom of religion and belief. +It also remains unclear whether the AKP will prevail. Visits by members of the General Staff to Ergenekon prisoners +ahead of the trial have been interpreted as a warning to the AKP not to go too far. +The court case against alleged key leaders and members of Ergenekon is merely the latest step in the power-struggle +between the ""deep state"" (of which Ergenekon appears to have been a part) and the AKP. That the judiciary -- quite +obviously pushed by the government -- has initiated the court case can be seen as proof that the AKP government is +fighting back against those groups in society and state that are striving to drive the AKP from power. +Whether the Ergenekon court case will prove to be a step towards real democracy in Turkey -- leading to improvements +in the area of freedom of religion and belief -- is quite another question. It is not only the court cases on Ergenekon and +the Malatya murders which will decide this.

Eikenberry, became public +within days after he sent them, and they were portrayed as having been the source of +significant discussion in the White House, heightening tensions between diplomats and +senior military officers, who supported an increase of 30,000 American troops. +But the full cables, obtained by The New York Times, show for the first time just how +strongly the current ambassador felt about the leadership of the Afghan government, the +state of its military and the chances that a troop buildup would actually hurt the war effort +by making the Karzai government too dependent on the United States. +The cables — one four pages, the other three — also represent a detailed rebuttal to the +counterinsurgency strategy offered by Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal, the top American and +NATO commander in Afghanistan, who had argued that a rapid infusion of fresh troops +was essential to avoid failure in the country. +They show that Mr. Eikenberry, a retired Army lieutenant general who once was the top +American commander in Afghanistan, repeatedly cautioned that deploying sizable +American reinforcements would result in ""astronomical costs"" — tens of billions of dollars +— and would only deepen the dependence of the Afghan government on the United States. +""Sending additional forces will delay the day when Afghans will take over, and make it +difficult, if not impossible, to bring our people home on a reasonable timetable,"" he wrote +Nov. 6. ""An increased U.S. and foreign role in security and governance will increase +Afghan dependence, at least in the short-term."" +Without offering details, Mr. Eikenberry has said in public hearings since then that his +concerns have been dealt with, and that he supported the White House's troop increase +plan. +But it is not clear what might have changed about his assessment of President Karzai as a +reliable partner, and the strong language of the cables may increase tensions between the +ambassador and the Karzai government, especially as world leaders meet in London on +Thursday to discuss a much-debated Afghan plan to reintegrate Taliban fighters. It also +coincides with a strong effort by the administration to mend ties with Mr. Karzai. +An American official provided a copy of the cables to The Times after a reporter requested +them. The official said it was important for the historical record that Mr. Eikenberry's +detailed assessments be made public, given that they were among the most important +documents produced during the debate that led to the troop buildup. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766418 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766418 Date: 08/31/2015 +On Nov. 6, Mr. Eikenberry wrote: ""President Karzai is not an adequate strategic partner. +The proposed counterinsurgency strategy assumes an Afghan political leadership that is +both able to take responsibility and to exert sovereignty in the furtherance of our goal — a +secure, peaceful, minimally self-sufficient Afghanistan hardened against transnational +terrorist groups. +""Yet Karzai continues to shun responsibility for any sovereign burden, whether defense, +governance or development. He and much of his circle do not want the U.S. to leave and +are only too happy to see us invest further,"" Mr. Eikenberry wrote. ""They assume we covet +their territory for a never-ending 'war on terror' and for military bases to use against +surrounding powers."" +He continued, ""Beyond Karzai himself, there is no political ruling class that provides an +overarching national identity that transcends local affiliations and provides reliable +partnership."" +In a second cable, dated Nov. 9, he expressed new concerns: ""In a PBS interview on +November 7, Karzai sounded bizarrely cautionary notes about his willingness to address +governance and corruption. This tracks with his record of inaction or grudging compliance +in this area."" +On Monday, Mr. Eikenberry declined through an embassy spokeswoman, Caitlin M. +Hayden, to comment on the cables and his views on Mr. Karzai. She said by e-mail, ""We +stand by what we provided during the review process, which got us to the clear strategy +we're now implementing, that the ambassador unequivocally supports."" +In his memos, Mr. Eikenberry raised other concerns. He said he had serious doubts about +the ability of the Afghan police and military forces to take over security duties in the +country by 2013. ""The Army's high attrition and low recruitment rates for Pashtuns in the +south are crippling,"" he wrote. ""Simply keeping the force at current levels requires tens of +thousands of new recruits every year to replace attrition losses and battlefield casualties."" +The ambassador, who left the military last April to become Mr. Obama's emissary, also +complained about an inadequate civilian counterpart organization to the NATO military +command in Afghanistan. Nearly three months later, he is still expressing concerns about +too few civilian experts in Afghanistan. +He also noted worries that the success of Mr. Obama's Afghanistan policy hinged on +Pakistani forces' eliminating militants' havens in the mountainous region near the Afghan +border. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766418 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766418 Date: 08/31/2015 +""Pakistan will remain the single greatest source of Afghan instability so long as the border +sanctuaries remain,"" he wrote. ""Until this sanctuary problem is fully addressed, the gains +from sending additional forces may be fleeting."" +""As we contemplate greatly expanding our presence in Afghanistan, the better answer to +our difficulties could well be to further ratchet up our engagement in Pakistan,"" he wrote +without elaboration. +On Nov. 9, he repeatedly warned against rushing into a large deployment of more +American forces without further study. +He urged that the White House appoint a bipartisan panel of ""civilian and military experts +to examine the Afghanistan-Pakistan strategy"" and provide recommendations by the end +of 2009. The recommendation, which would have extended a White House-led policy +review of many months, was not accepted. +Mr. Eikenberry suggested sending a relatively small force to train Afghan security forces +and protect some population centers, and to condition more troops on the Afghans' +meeting objectives, like committing to taking full responsibility for national defense by a +specific date. +And while General McChrystal warned of failure if additional troops were not deployed, +Mr. Eikenberry concluded by cautioning of competing risks ""that we will become more +deeply engaged here with no way to extricate ourselves, short of allowing the country to +descend again into lawlessness and chaos."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766418 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3629,C05766420,NORTHERN IRELAND,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-01-26T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0061/DOC_0C05766420/C05766420.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,"Sullivan, Jacob J ","Abedin, Huma","Tuesday, January 26, 2010 6:52 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766420,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Gordon Brown called Lou Susman a short while ago.

(AP) - The nation's foreign exchange student programs need better federal oversight, the State +Department's internal watchdog concludes in a new report following a scandal in which students were placed in +shoddy homes in Pennsylvania. +Acting Inspector General Harold Geisel said in the report, released this week, the department's Bureau of +Educational and Cultural Affairs has largely abdicated its responsibility to ensure the well-being of thousands of +exchange students who come to the United States each year. +Instead, the sponsoring organizations themselves have been left to monitor their own programs and self-report +problems to federal regulators, the report said. +""There are insufficient dedicated resources at ECA to conduct effective oversight of youth exchange programs,"" the +report said. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766463 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766463 Date: 07/31/2015 +The inspector geneial began its review in July, following allegations that an employee of a San Francisco-based +exchange program placed students in filthy homes around Scranton in northeastern Pennsylvania.

It finds that the department has been ""relying instead on the coordinator to self-monitor."" +Participants in the exchange programs are typically 15 to 18 and are among ""the most vulnerable,"" according +to the report. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766463 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766463 Date: 07/31/2015 +In 2008, the State Department gave 17 such groups $39.4 million in taxpayer funds to manage programs +involving exchange students. +One of those groups, Aspect Foundation, received $1.08 million of those funds. However, Aspect came under +fire this year after students from Europe, Africa and South America — whom the California-based foundation +had placed in Scranton, Pennsylvania -- came forward with allegations of mistreatment and abandonment. +CNN aired a detailed report on the case in July, after which the State Department said it would set up a toll- +free telephone number that foreign exchange students could use to report problems and tighten its oversight of +government-funded exchange student programs. +The inspector general's report notes that previous audits of the State Department's Bureau of Educational and +Cultural Affairs (ECA), which also found deficiencies in program oversight, found the department slow to make +changes. +""The incidents in Northeastern Pennsylvania were allowed to happen, in part, because of a lack of clear +regulations that allowed sponsor organizations to interpret the rules in a manner that ultimately endangered +these students,"" said Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pennsylvania, on Thursday. +In May, Casey pushed for an investigation into the Department of State's oversight of youth exchange +programs following reports out of Scranton. +One student was placed in a Scranton home with a person who had been convicted of a drug-related felony, +Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, District Attorney Andrew Jarbola has told CNN. Some students were so +malnourished that one was treated in a hospital for dehydration; another was put up in a home that was later +condemned by the city, he said. +The families that housed the students say the allegations are untrue. The Aspect Foundation first denied any +problems existed, then said it had corrected them and fired those responsible. +The State Department sanctioned Aspect by reducing the number of students it can bring over for the 2010- +2011 school year, a penalty that amounted to a loss of revenue of about $540,000, according to the +department. +""We at the Department of State recognize [because we] are responsible for this program we have to make +sure we are aggressively overseeing this program and make sure children are well-suited,"" said State +Department spokesman P.J. Crowley at the time. +The inspector general's report released Thursday does not specifically mention Aspect. It does review four +State Department programs, including Youth Exchange Study (YES) and the Future Leaders Exchange +(FLEX), both of which have given grants to the foundation. +The report calls on the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, which oversees the grant programs, to +establish requirements for criminal history checks of host families and put more resources into site visits at +placement groups. +""The Department of State has taken action to rectify its failure in the oversight and monitoring of exchange +programs,"" Casey said. ""However, the real measure of progress will be what specific steps are taken to +prevent this problem from happening again."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766463 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3648,C05766464,FYI,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-10-24T04:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_044/DOC_0C05766464/C05766464.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,FYI,H,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Saturday, October 24, 2009 9:08 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766464,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766464 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Saturday, October 24, 2009 9:08 AM +To: H +Subject FW: FYI +fyi +Original Message---- +From: Meghann Curtis +Sent: Friday, October 23, 2009 4:21 PM +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Subject: FYI +Just spoke with David harland's un team.

Please let me know what you think: +Statement by the Secretary +On the Restoration of Democratic and Constitutional Order In Honduras November 27, 2009 +The United States remains committed to help restore the democratic and constitutional order in Honduras in the wake +of the June 28 coup d'etat that removed President Zelaya and led to the suspension of Honduras from the Organization +of American States. As part of that effort, it is essential for both parties in Honduras to implement the measures they +agreed to in the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord, including the formation of a government of unity and national +reconciliation and the December 2 congressional vote on President Zelaya""s restitution. These are vital elements of the +Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord, and the Honduran people and the international community expect an expeditious +determination.

The Houses will be configured as +1Bed/lBath and 2Bed/1Bath — with floor plans ranging from 155 sqft to 300 sqft respectively. Houses are wind +and earthquake resistant (see specifications bellow). +InnoVida is currently in the process of partnering with different non-profit organizations that will assist us in this +endeavor (Among them World Vision http:fiwww.worldvision.org and Medishare http://projectmedishare.org ) +We expect to have a first assessment of the situation by the beginning of February, including identifying possible +locations and the short-term requirements for buildings and housing needs. To this effect a delegation from +InnoVida will travel to Haiti on Saturday, Jan. 30th to meet with local authorities and NGO's local staff. +Our plans are to send the first structures during the course of the next three to four weeks. Presently, we believe +that we will initially send structures for hospitals and/or shelters as well as schools. +InnoVida will follow the construction guidelines established by the Haiti Recovery Team that is now in formation. +It is too early for us to have a design and a master plan of the exact type of house or where it would be built in the +country. +InnoVida will be ready to start shipping the first batch of 150 houses 30 days after a design is approved. +For the last six months, InnoVida has been planning the installation of manufacturing plan in Haiti. After the +earthquake, this plan has become a top priority, due to the housing needs in the country. This factory will also +create a significant amount of new jobs. We are actively seeking to have the factory installed and running in the +next 4 to 6 months. +INNOVIDA: An Ideal Housing Solution for Haiti +InnoVida is a U.S. company that manufactures building solutions which bridge the gap between energy efficiency, +affordability and high quality. Using its proprietary technology we manufacture Fiber Composite Panels (FCPs), +which are used to build houses, offices, schools, warehouses, medical centers, manufactured, modular, and +mobile homes, etc. without the use of cement, steel or wood and with significant savings in cost to build, time to +build and energy cost to operate. +1nnoVida's FCP is a load bearing insulating panel system with structural skins made of high-strength E-Glass fiber +fabrics impregnated with a fire-resistant polymeric epoxy resin and a core made of a construction foam material. +The end result of this combination is that FCP construction is a stronger and better way to build. The versatility of +the material and the advanced technology applied allows the construction of a complete structure from +foundation to roof. The building components include composite structural insulated panels that can be used to +manufacture exterior walls, interior walls, beams, columns, profiles, and roofing. InnoVida's FCPs' inherent +characteristics make them a better building alternative. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766494 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766494 Date: 08/31/2015 +Inn°Vida Structures are: +I> Built Fast — Structures built with InnoVidaPanels can be built one third faster than conventional building +construction. These structures do not require heavy equipment and nominal skilled labor is required +Earthquake Resistant — FCPs have a high deflection capacity of 20% compared to the traditional 5% +before they reach their breaking point. Also, due to the lightweight nature of the FCP, any structurally +damage that may occur will be much less harmful to the occupant than with traditional materials. +• Hurricane Resistant — The Wall Panel and Roof Panel were tested and approved for wind speeds above +156 mph. +Waterproof — Does not provide a food source for algae and mold. +1> Fire Resistant — The Panel skins will not support combustion. Also, the chemicals released from fuel-fed +fires held against the building surface are not poisonous to humans. +• Low Maintenance — Does not provide a living environment for termites or rodents and has a long life +span. +I> Energy Efficient — InnoVida's FCP has an R-value of 5.88 per inch with a total tested wall R-value of 14.6 +for the 2.5 inch Panel and 23.7 for the 4 inch Panel. The insulative core significantly reduces the amount +of energy needed to heat and/or cool and provides excellent noise reduction. +f> A Greener Alternative — Our products and processes are much less detrimental to the environment than +conventional construction by producing very little construction-site waste, air pollution, and natural +resource consumption. +i> Limitless Architectural and Aesthetic Bounds — FCPs can be curved into any shape and be finished with +any desired option (stone, stucco, paint, wallpaper, etc.). +InnoVida is committed to the Haiti Relief Effort. With our donation of 1,000 homes and the installation of a local +FCP manufacturing facility we hope to provide jobs as well as housing to thousands of Haitians with the greater +hope of assisting in the full developing, rebuilding and modernizing of the country. +For more information, visit our website at wwwinnoVida.com or call +1-786-837-7200 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766494 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3660,C05766496,IMG0016-20100128-0252.JPG,H,AbedinH@state.gov,81,2010-01-28T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0061/DOC_0C05766496/C05766496.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,IMG00016-20100128-0252.jpg,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Thursday, January 28, 2010 2:52 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766496,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766496 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE +IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2010 2:52 AM +To: +Subject: IMG00016-20100128-0252.jpg +Attachments: Device MemoryhomeuserpicturesIMG00016-20100128-0252:jpg +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766496 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3661,C05766498,IMG0015-20100128-0251.JPG,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-01-28T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0061/DOC_0C05766498/C05766498.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Thursday, January 28, 2010 2:52 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766498,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766498 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE +IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2010 2:52 AM +To: +Subject IMG00015-20100128-0251.jpg +Attachments: Device MemoryhomeuserpicturesIMG00015-20100128-0251jpg +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766498 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3662,C05766499,PIRS NY ANSWER,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-01-28T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0061/DOC_0C05766499/C05766499.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Thursday, January 28, 2010 2:58 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766499,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Checked with philippe on plane and he said hes professionally 100% ok for following reasons. +1)We did it for Copenhagen. +2) Condi would be dropped in Crawford on way home from foreign trips. +3) They already know and don't care. +But let me know if you want to change to dc, and I can easily tell Lew.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766499 Date: 08/31/2015 +- +RELEASE +IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Thursday, January 28, 2010 2:58 AM +To: H +Subject Pirs ny answer +Checked with philippe on plane and he said hes professionally 100% ok for following reasons. +1)We did it for Copenhagen. +2) Condi would be dropped in Crawford on way home from foreign trips. +3) They already know and don't care. +But let me know if you want to change to dc, and I can easily tell Lew. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766499 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3663,C05766503,EGYPT,H,"Burns, William J",216,2009-11-27T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_049/DOC_0C05766503/C05766503.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Re: Egypt,,"Burns, William J ","Sullivan, Jacob J","Friday, November 27, 2009 6:53 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766503,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Will do.

Dick Lugar will deliver the following speech tonight at the Society for International Development's annual +dinner. +I thank the Society for International Development, its members and its leadership - Betsy Bassan and Joe Feuer - for +the work they do on development issues around the world, and for organizing this annual gala. It is unfortunate that +Chairman Kerry could not be with us tonight, but I know he shares my gratitude for your recognition. +I also want to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Shah for his remarks and to recognize the efforts of USAID and its +new Administrator in responding to the tragic earthquake in Haiti. Dr. Shah has faced one of the most challenging +crises imaginable only five days after being sworn in. The job ahead of him - in Haiti and around the globe - is +monumental. I look forward to supporting his work and that of his agency in the coming years. I commend all of our +responders from all government agencies for their courage, compassion, and skill as they continue their mission in +Haiti, and I join all of you in extending our prayers to the people of that nation. +Tonight I would like to offer a few points about where we have come from and where we might be going with regard +to U.S. investments in development. +The challenges of global poverty and hunger are growing at a time when worries about the sustainability of natural +resources are increasing. Population growth and increased affluence in some parts of the globe will require that we +more than double world food production by 2050 to keep pace. At the same time, to address environmental concerns, +we will have to harvest that food from roughly the same amount of land that is in production today. The accessibility +and availability of food deeply affects the health of populations. Childhood malnutrition has lifelong consequences for +the productivity of individuals and nations. Poverty denies opportunity to the world's young people and breeds +extremism and instability that spills over borders. It is not surprising that the CIA has long tracked and analyzed +global food supplies as an indicator of potential conflict. +There is probably not a person in this room who would disagree that development is critical for U.S. national security +and that the alleviation of poverty and hunger is a key component. This is a sentiment that is shared in most parts of +our government, including the Department of Defense. +But even though the importance of advancing development goals is evident, constructing the most efficient, +accountable, and transparent means for achieving those goals is complex and challenging. Differences of opinion exist +with regard to who should be performing development functions and how these activities should be integrated into our +broader foreign policy efforts. We have not reached a consensus within our government on who should be doing what, +where, when and why. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766534 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766534 Date: 08/31/2015 +As we debate these issues, we should keep in mind that diplomacy and development are two distinct disciplines. +Although diplomacy and development often can be mutually reinforcing, at their core, they have different priorities, +resource requirements, and time horizons. Most obviously, diplomacy is far more concerned with solving immediate +problems, usually associated with countries of strategic interest. Although we hope that our development efforts will +sometimes yield short-term strategic benefits, that is not their primary purpose. In a development context, we are +willing to take a much longer view of the world and devote resources to countries of less, or even minimal, strategic +significance. We are willing to allow the diplomatic and national security benefits of development work to accrue over +time. And we are willing to engage in missions for purely altruistic reasons. These differences underscore why +development must be an independent partner of diplomacy, not merely its servant. +Reforming U.S. Foreign Assistance +Reforming U.S. foreign assistance - in both substance and architecture - has been a priority for the Senate Foreign +Relations Committee. Secretary Clinton has stated: ""I want USAID to be seen as the premier development agency in +the world."" I share that sentiment. One of the basic questions with respect to foreign aid reform is how we can best +strengthen the capacity of USAID to run effective assistance programs. During the last two decades, decision-makers +have not made it easy for the agency to perform its mission. Development resources declined precipitously in the +1990s and reorganization initiatives resulted in the agency's loss of evaluation, budget, and policy capacity. There is +broad consensus among development experts that the loss of these functions at USAID is inhibiting the success of our +development programs. Our development efforts will never be as effective as they should be if the agency that houses +most of our development expertise is cut out of relevant policy and budget decisions. +Events since 2001 have spurred greater investments in foreign assistance. But many of these resources have been +located outside of USAID. Roughly two dozen departments and agencies have taken over some aspects of foreign +assistance, including the Department of Defense and the Department of Agriculture. +The President has advocated doubling foreign assistance over time, and has announced new initiatives on food +security and health. Given the increased resources needed for these initiatives, it is crucial that the American people +and Congress have confidence that these funds will be used efficiently. +USAID must have a central role in development policy decisions. If we are to avoid inefficient experimentation, it must +have the capacity to evaluate programs and disseminate information about best practices and methods. That requires +policy makers to continue augmenting the agency's staffing and expertise. These principals are reflected in legislation +that Senator Kerry and I introduced last year, S. 1524, the Foreign Assistance Revitalization and Accountability Act. +The Administration has initiated two separate studies - the State Department's Quadrennial Diplomacy and +Development Review and the National Security Council's Presidential Study Directive on Development - in an attempt +to make recommendations on how development programs can better support U.S. foreign policy objectives. The +QDDR will not be completed until this fall and it is uncertain when, or if, we will know the outcomes of the PSD. +I am eager to review the Administration's ideas when they are ready. But in the meantime, Congress should be +offering its own ideas on how to improve our government's development capacity. The Kerry-Lugar foreign assistance +reform bill is the product of well over a year of research and analysis by Senators and their staffs. It has strong +support in the aid community. And it is co-sponsored by a bipartisan group of 23 Senators, twelve of whom are +members of the Foreign Relations Committee. This level of backing for a bill related to foreign assistance is extremely +rare. It provides an opportunity to build something approaching a consensus on this issue. I am hopeful that the +Executive Branch will recognize that a bill co-sponsored by a majority of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and +nearly a quarter of the full Senate should be given substantial weight in its review process. A strong development +agency that serves under the foreign policy guidance of the Secretary of State, as envisioned in our bill, will best +empower her to advance U.S. goals. +A Development Policy Guided by Objectives +Even as we reconsider our development architecture, it is vital that development policy is guided by objectives rather +than by how we organize our government to deliver development assistance. We should focus on the big issues - food +scarcity, poverty, disease, environmental degradation -- that prevent economic growth in a large swath of the world's +countries. Those objectives require that strategies reflect the needs of the countries we are helping rather than the +vagaries of our own budget process, which often allocates funds in response to lobbying pressures, media interest, or +political favoritism. Country strategies based on broad objectives also give us the best chance to avoid dependence on +arbitrary spending targets for specific sectors. For example, promoting food security requires investments not just in +agricultural productivity, but in clean water, infrastructure, basic and higher education, and land titling, to name just a +few factors. +The Global Food Security Act, which I authored with Senator Casey and which Senator Kerry has co-sponsored, +reflects these principles. The food price crisis that occurred in 2008 resulted from a culmination of policy choices by +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766534 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766534 Date: 08/31/2015 +donor and recipient governments over a decades-long period. That crisis was a wakeup call for the development +community, for international donors, and for policymakers worldwide. Because achieving food security must be a +multi-sector endeavor that goes beyond simply raising crop yields, U.S. policy must seek to integrate a variety of +approaches and actors. At the same time, we do not want to delegate responsibility for food security policy to multiple +departments. That could further weaken our already fractured foreign assistance structure. That is why our bill +designates USAID, which has the broad development experience necessary, as the lead agency to implement the +strategy. +""Whole-of-Government"" in Perspective +The term ""whole-of-government"" has come into vogue in policy circles. To the extent that the term underscores the +complexity of development problems and the need to apply the talents of a diverse set of agencies to their solution, it +is useful and descriptive. Our government must have the capacity to draw on expertise to achieve vital development +missions without artificial barriers erected by agencies. Many agencies are working together successfully on +development problems in many parts of the world. +But we should not mistake the term ""whole-of-government"" for an organizational strategy. Even if multiple agencies +are making contributions, someone must be in charge, someone must coordinate the activities of all involved, and +someone must take responsibility for inefficiencies and failures. +This is especially important in a development context because of our highly fragmented aid system. The risk is that +the term ""whole-of-government,"" will be used to justify that fragmentation or preserve roles for agencies where they +are not justified. We also must be careful that the whole-of-government concept does not re-define development as a +series of technical decisions - from where to dig wells to which seeds to plant in which soils. Such a redefinition would +devalue the discipline of development, which many practitioners have spent a lifetime studying and testing. We know +from long experience that technical expertise must be grounded in an understanding of development. For example, +agricultural advancement depends as much or more on reaching women farmers, building agriculture education, and +engaging civil society in support of rural development than it does on seed quality and planting decisions. An +integrated strategy can only come from an agency that understands development is a separate discipline, as Dr. Shah +has said. +I believe the starting point for any future design of our assistance programs should not be the status quo, but rather +the period in which we had a well-functioning and well-resourced aid agency. Even if we emphasize the talents of +multiple agencies, a strong aid agency that can design integrated country-specific strategies is a key to success. +Unity of Purpose +Instead of accepting whole-of-government, or any other organizational model, as the guiding narrative, I believe +there is a more helpful way of viewing the development mission - that is ""unity-of-purpose."" We need to be unified +around common purposes for which we can marshal the appropriate level of resources and variety of approaches. +There will be situations that call for the involvement of multiple agencies under the direction of one government +entity. But, the decision to involve other government actors should be driven by the purpose. Such is clearly the case +now in Haiti. The U.S. government and international actors are unified for the purpose of disaster response. That +response involves the coordination of hundreds of organizations to rescue people and to provide basic elements +needed for survival. At some point soon, the mission will evolve from disaster response to reconstruction to +development. We should be asking whether we will be able to maintain a unity-of-purpose even as that purpose +changes. +The Lugar-Casey bill proposes that there be a unity-of-purpose around achieving global food security. Regardless of +the situation, it is the unity-of-purpose that should guide how foreign assistance is designed. I applaud Secretary +Clinton for adopting food security as a top priority. Her inter-agency team has been working diligently on its Global +Food Security and Hunger Initiative, and Congress has been responsive in appropriating funding. Many operational +decisions have yet to be made, particularly decisions relating to coordination, but I stand ready to work with the +Administration to pass the Lugar-Casey bill as soon as possible. I look forward to achieving a unity-of-purpose +between Congress and the Administration on food security. +These are not easy issues to solve. I applaud all of you here tonight for your dedication to development and your +willingness to work with Congress and the Administration as we try to rebuild our assistance infrastructure. I would +conclude with a quote from Dr. Norman Borlaug, the Nobel Laureate and Father of the Green Revolution, whose +optimism never flagged. He believed that constant striving would eventually wear down all obstacles. He said, ""I +cannot emphasize too strongly the fact that further progress depends on intelligent, integrated and persistent effort +by government leaders, statesmen, tradesmen, scientists, educators and communication agencies."" That is as true +today as when he said it 39 years ago, and I invite everyone here to make their own contributions in that spirit. +### +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766534 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766534 Date: 08/31/2015 +Caitlin Klevorick +Office of the Counselor +Department of State +KlevorickCBgstate.gov +202.647.6115 +,1:•lacicberry) +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766534 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3678,C05766535,BING,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-12-22T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05766535/C05766535.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Bing,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Tuesday, December 22, 2009 11:45 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766535,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766535 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Tuesday, December 22, 2009 11:45 AM +To: H +Subject: Bing +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766535 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3679,C05766536,BING,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-12-22T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05766536/C05766536.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Bing,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Tuesday, December 22, 2009 11:46 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766536,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766536 Date: 08/31/2015 +- +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Tuesday, December 22, 2009 11:46 AM +To: H +Subject: Bing +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766536 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3680,C05766537,BING,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-12-22T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05766537/C05766537.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Tuesday, December 22, 2009 11:48 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766537,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766537 Date: 08/31/2015 +- +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Tuesday, December 22, 2009 11:48 AM +To: H +Subject Bing +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766537 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3681,C05766540,(AP) US CONGRESS PARTY SWITCH,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2009-12-22T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05766540/C05766540.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,(AP) US Congress Party Switch,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Tuesday, December 22, 2009 12:27 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766540,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766540 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Tuesday, December 22, 2009 12:27 PM +To: +Subject Fw: (AP) US Congress Party Switch +From: Polley, Mary E +To: NEWS-Mahogany; NEWS-H +Sent: Tue Dec 22 12:20:30 2009 +Subject: (AP) US Congress Party Switch +WASHINGTON - Senior House aides say freshman Democratic lawmaker Parker Griffith of Alabama is switching to the +Republican Party.

The United States +government and other governments around the world, for their part, have sent thousands +of relief workers and have pledged 5$i billion so far. But Haitians need something more +fundamental than relief from the present situation; they need jobs that they can count on +for years ahead. For this, the private business sector is essential. Luckily, business leaders +are meeting now in Davos, Switzerland, and Haiti is prominent on their agenda. +Haiti is by far the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, and yet it need not be so, +because unexploited economic opportunities abound there. Some of the best mangoes in +the world grow in Haiti — though too many of them rot, offshore from the world's largest +market, for want of adequate roads and well-governed ports. Excellent coffee is grown in +the Haitian mountains, but much of it is sold informally across the border to coffee +producers in the Dominican Republic, who reap most of the profits. +Haiti also has many qualities attractive to tourists: a warm climate; magnificent white- +sand beaches and turquoise water; Tortuga, the famous pirate island off the northern +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766548 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766548 Date: 08/31/2015 +coast; and the Citadel, a mountain fortress erected after Haiti's independence in the early +19th century to fend off colonial powers, now a World Heritage site. Still, it is one of the +least visited places in the Caribbean. +The Hope II trade pact with the United States, signed in 2008, granted Haiti duty-free +access to the American apparel market for the next decade. Already, as a result of the deal, +many garment factories situated along Haiti's eastern border (so as to use Dominican +electricity and ports) have become profitable and competitive with Chinese garment +makers. But light manufacturing could be much bigger in Haiti — if the Haitian +government and donors would credibly commit to providing functioning roads, electrical +grids and ports, and if outside private capital would invest, patiently, in Haitian +businesses. +Poverty and a history of coups and trade embargoes have pushed Haiti's reputation as a +place to do business to near the bottom of the global pile, alongside countries like +Afghanistan, Somalia and Iraq. But Haiti is far safer and offers far more market +opportunities than those conflict-ridden nations. +The obvious difficulty in Haiti is that its economic center, Port-au-Prince, is now in +shambles. Private investors are naturally wary of jumping into a market too soon, before it +is lively enough to provide certain kinds of support. After all, many businesses can be +profitable only if other businesses exist alongside them. Ships don't sail directly from Haiti +to Florida because there aren't enough goods to warrant dedicated routes. In the +meantime, without reliable routes for direct export of goods, investment in production in +Haiti is stymied. +Even within a single manufacturing sector, it helps to have many businesses operating +together. Garment factories, for example, cluster together, because they share a common +need for support services. In Haiti, the cluster of garment makers has been too small even +to keep repair shops in business; it can take weeks to fly in a technician to fix a broken +sewing machine. So, production costs are high because there are too few investors, and +there are too few investors because costs are so high. +The way to address this chicken-and-egg problem is for individual private investors to +coordinate with one another. This would not be a new strategy; in the 19th century, the +American West was developed not as a process of gradual diffusion but in spasms of local +investment booms, financed by enthusiastic outsiders. The earthquake could usher in such +a boom in Haiti. +The World Economic Forum in Davos provides an opportunity for businesses that might +invest in Haiti — international fashion brands, hotels and coffee chains, for example — to +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766548 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766548 Date: 08/31/2015 +coordinate with companies that provide logistics and markets, so that together they could +make mutual commitments. The foundation for such coordination has already been laid — +by Bill Clinton, who led 200 international investors to Haiti last October. As a result of this +effort, international chains like Best Western and Choice Hotels started building new +hotels in Haiti. +The earthquake has, of course, changed opportunities in Haiti, but it has not necessarily +reduced them. The American construction industry is mired in deep recession and so has +the excess capacity to meet Haiti's sudden need for low-cost housing, roads, bridges and +other structures. If American construction firms can harness Haitian labor to reconstruct +(safer) homes, then the challenge will be to lure other businesses in their wake so that +temporary jobs in reconstruction are replaced by long-term jobs in manufacturing, +agriculture and tourism. +In meeting this challenge, banks and private venture capital also have an important role to +play. Haiti needs generous venture capital that encourages some firms to move in first. +George Soros , the investor and philanthropist, has recognized this need by committing +$25 million for smart investments that catalyze Haiti's competitive advantages. Many +more such commitments are needed. +For now, even public sources of risk capital like the World Bank's International Finance +Corporation and Britain's Commonwealth Development Corporation have no special +provision for the kind of coordinated pump-priming investment that's required in Haiti. +Most public capital goes to emerging market economies where private investment no +longer needs to be encouraged. Haiti, with its genuine opportunities and immediate needs, +provides a chance for public finance organizations to find new relevance. It is also a chance +for private business to show it can take a major role in meeting the gravest human needs. +Paul Collier, an economics professor at Oxford, was a special adviser on Haiti to the +United Nations secretary general in 2009.

We did not mention it but it is interesting that many of the early big sponsors were NY based +companies like GE (1 +—), Pepsi ( ), Corning, Cummins, Deloitte, NYSE, and Pfizer. +He asked if S made individual calls to CEO's and we noted (as recd by L), the only general ""asks"" were done on +conference calls or in large groups.

However, in +less than seven days, a makeshift version of 911 sprung to life. +It's a striking story of how a few tech-savvy social entrepreneurs, +receptive ears in the U.S. government and hundreds of Haitian +Creole-speaking strangers crowdsourced from around the world were able +to help people on the ground get food or medical attention. +Hours after the earthquake struck Port au Prince, 23-year-old Josh +Nesbit (pictured right), who heads a non-profit delivering health care +in Sub-Saharan Africa through mobile phones, thought that an SMS +gateway would be critical in Haiti. +He sent a tweet out asking for help. A Cameroonian managing a startup +incubator in Africa, Jean Francis Ahanda, responded mentioning that a +contact, Jean-Marc Castera, was headed to the command center of the +Caribbean's largest wireless carrier Digicel that day. +Within three days, they had co-opted a shortcode, 4636, that had been +used for weather information in Haiti. They rushed to get several +other partners like Ushahidi, which provides an open-source platform +for tracking crisis communications, and Google on board. A non-profit +that specializes in using technology for disaster relief, Instedd, +built an emergency information system using the shortcode. On a very +late Saturday night, a cobbled-together team of a half-dozen +organizations or so launched '4636' as an emergency number. +They started publicizing it on the ground in Haiti through radio +stations. Haitians could text the number with messages about injuries, +people trapped under rubble or reports of missing people. +Some of them are desperate: +""My name is J my brother is working in Unicef and I live in +C 11 A I have 2 people that is still alive under the building +still !

Both are in the ""Mechanical Turk"" space — they farm out +simple, rote tasks that computing can't solve to thousands of people +at a time. (Crowdflower is a venture-backed startup while Samasource +is a non-profit that gives this work to refugees and people in the +poorest parts of the world, including Haiti.) +Crowdflower and Samasource asked for people around the world fluent in +Haitian-Creole to translate and prioritize emergency texts coming out +of Haiti. So far, a few hundred have signed up. (See the map below.) +Nesbit admits the privacy situation isn't perfect, but the project +helps people in dire need. +Another contact, Katie Stanton, who was an early Google employee and +is now the Director of Citizen Participation at the State Department, +helped get emergency responders from the U.S. Coast Guard and Red +Cross involved. +Now if a Haitian texts 4636, a stranger on the other side of the world +will translate it and other volunteers (pictured right) will send it +to the right responder whether it's an urgent medical need or a +general request for more food and water. Volume has risen to about +2,500 messages a day since the Jan. 16 launch and messages are +translated and forwarded usually in between 2 and 10 minutes. They've +filtered through more than 20,000 texts so far. +In some cases, it's been life-saving. Earlier this week, a Haitian +woman went into labor and started bleeding out. She texted 4636, +calling for help. A translator and stranger pinpointed her location on +a map, giving the U.S. Coast Guard her coordinates. They were able to +reach her in time to help her deliver the baby. +The non-profits behind '4636' are now trying to scale it up as the +number of messages rises 10 percent a day. They're also trying to make +it more sustainable with larger pools of consistent volunteers. +""Honestly, this is rare to see groups like the State Department, +Ushahidi and Instedd all working together,"" Nesbit said.

(AP) - The nation's foreign exchange student programs need better federal oversight, the State +Department's internal watchdog concludes in a new report following a scandal in which students were placed in +shoddy homes in Pennsylvania. +Acting Inspector General Harold Geisel said in the report, released this week, the department's Bureau of +Educational and Cultural Affairs has largely abdicated its responsibility to ensure the well-being of thousands of +exchange students who come to the United States each year. +Instead, the sponsoring organizations themselves have been left to monitor their own programs and self-report +problems to federal regulators, the report said. +'There are insufficient dedicated resources at ECA to conduct effective oversight of youth exchange programs,"" the +report said. +The inspector general began its review in July, following allegations that an employee of a San Francisco-based +exchange program placed students in filthy homes around Scranton in northeastern Pennsylvania. Edna Burgette +was fired from Aspect Foundation after being charged in July with five felony counts of criminal negligence. +Aspect said it deplored Burgette's actions and had no prior knowledge of the neglect, but the agency was penalized +by the State Department. +""We're absolutely committed to strengthening our programs, making them the best they can be and ensuring that all +students have safe and rewarding experiences,"" Maura Pally, acting assistant secretary of state for educational and +cultural affairs, told The Associated Press on Friday. +In the wake of the Scranton case, the bureau added staff, established a separate unit to conduct site visits, e-mailed +current students to inquire about how their experiences are going, and set up a database to track problems, among +other fixes meant to improve oversight. +Also, proposed federal regulations would tighten requirements for host families and set up more rigorous +background checks. +""We acknowledge there were serious problems with our monitoring and oversight, and we agree with the IG's +assessment that things needed to change,"" Pally said.

It finds that the department has been ""relying instead on the coordinator to self-monitor."" +Participants in the exchange programs are typically 15 to 18 and are among ""the most vulnerable,"" according +to the report. +In 2008, the State Department gave 17 such, groups $39.4 million in taxpayer funds to manage programs +involving exchange students. +One of those groups, Aspect Foundation, received $1.08 million of those funds. However, Aspect came under +fire this year after students from Europe, Africa and South America -- whom the California-based foundation +had placed in Scranton, Pennsylvania -- came forward with allegations of mistreatment and abandonment. +CNN aired a detailed report on the case in July, after which the State Department said it would set up a toll- +free telephone number that foreign exchange students could use to report problems and tighten its oversight of +government-funded exchange student programs. +The inspector general's report notes that previous audits of the State Department's Bureau of Educational and +Cultural Affairs (ECA), which also found deficiencies in program oversight, found the department slow to make +changes. +""The incidents in Northeastern Pennsylvania were allowed to happen, in part, because of a lack of clear +regulations that allowed sponsor organizations to interpret the rules in a manner that ultimately endangered +these students,"" said Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pennsylvania, on Thursday. +In May, Casey pushed for an investigation into the Department of State's oversight of youth exchange +programs following reports out of Scranton. +One student was placed in a Scranton home with a person who had been convicted of a drug-related felony, +Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, District Attorney Andrew Jarbola has told CNN. Some students were so +malnourished that one was treated in a hospital for dehydration; another was put up in a home that was later +condemned by the city, he said. +The families that housed the students say the allegations are untrue. The Aspect Foundation first denied any +problems existed, then said it had corrected them and fired those responsible. +The State Department sanctioned Aspect by reducing the number of students it can bring over for the 2010- +2011 school year, a penalty that amounted to a loss of revenue of about $540,000, according to the +department. +""We at the Department of State recognize [because we] are responsible for this program we have to make +sure we are aggressively overseeing this program and make sure children are well-suited,"" said State +Department spokesman P.J. Crowley at the time. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766568 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766568 Date: 07/31/2015 +The inspector general's report released Thursday does not specifically mention Aspect.

Using the internet to organise themselves, developers, communications experts and +humanitarian organisations created a system to gather emergency requests using text messages that won praise +from emergency officials and support from the US State Department. +Hours after the quake, Josh Nesbit, who heads up a non-profit using mobile phones to help deliver medical care in +Africa, heads sent this tweet: +Reaching out to ©FrontlineSMS users in #Haiti with hopes of establishing local SMS gateway for +http://haiti.ushahidi.com +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766604 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766604 Date: 08/31/2015 +Ushahidi is a crowd-sourced crisis reporting platform that was developed in Kenya to gather reports of violence in +the post-election unrest in 2008. Ushahidi, which means ""testimony"" in Swahili, has been used to gatherreports +about the swine flu outbreak, monitor elections in India and Mexico and to collect crime reports in Atlanta. +The platform can handle reports from a number of sources, via email, the web or via SMS, making it flexible and +very useful even in areas without intemet access. Ushahidi worked with teams in Kenya, Uganda and teams in +Boston and Washington DC in the United States. +Using Twitter, Josh got in contact with Jean-Marc Castera who was heading to the DigiCel command center, +according to Erik Hersman at Ushahidi. Working with the US State Department they were able to get the 4636 SMS +shortcode that had been used for weather information in Haiti. They launched the SMS-based emergency +information system with the support of the Thomson Reuters Foundation and technology disaster relief organisation +inSTEDD five da s after the suake. +Ten radio stations still operating in Haiti helped spread the word about the emergency shortcode. They also quickly +put up posters, and the US Department of State helped publicise it, announcing it via their official Twitter account +and elsewhere. +They worked with 10,000 Haitian volunteers to help translate the messages and other volunteers helped to structure +""mountains of data"" coming into the system, Hersman wrote. The volunteers of Mission 4636 posted this on the +Ushahidi blog: +We are the volunteer translators of Mission 4636. We span six time zones and seven languages on any +given night. We are students, medics, stay at home mothers, archivists, firefighters, and software +developers. We are the quiet force behind Ushahidi Haiti & we give a voice to the lost. +San Francisco startups, Crowdflower and Samasource, which specialise in managing tasks for crowdsourcing, +helped organise the volunteer efforts, according to Kim-Mai Cutler at VentureBeat. She also reported that Katie +Stanton, an early Google employee who now works in the Office of Innovation at the State Department, ""helped get +emergency responders from the U.S. Coast Guard and Red Cross involved"". +Since is started, Ushahidi has received nearly 100,000 reports concerning Haiti, and organisers are working to +create a system, Swift River, to help filter those reports so that the most urgent ones get attention quickly. +One thing that is impressive about this effort is how distributed, collaborated and organised it is, and they have +blogged about how theykept this volunteer project focused. CrisisCamps to help with these projects sprung up in +cities around the world, including here in London. +A decade of crowdsourced crisis projects +Developers also created an application to help collect information on missing people in Haiti. After creating several +applications, they came to a decision to focus their efforts on a single app hosted at Google. +The Haiti Earthquake people finding application is actually the evolution of similar projects that started appearing +after the 11 September 2001 attacks in the US and rapidly developed after the Asian Tsunami in late +2004, Hurricane Katrina PeopleFinder project in 2005, the and the earthquake in Kashmir in 2005. The projects +gave rise to an XML format called the People Finder Interchange Format. +Every time a disaster like this happens, the response has gotten more sophisticated and better organised. The +response in Haiti by this volunteer army has been deeply impressive, and they have built up the expertise so that +when the next disaster happens, they'll have new tools to help speed aid to victims in need. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766604 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3715,C05766606,NI,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-01-30T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0061/DOC_0C05766606/C05766606.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,NI,,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Saturday, January 30, 2010 10:09 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766606,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Here's the update, pieced together from various sources: +Starting at around 3 pm Friday, Adams and McGuinness returned to Hillsborogh to meet with Robinson and Arlene +Foster.

He is evidently interpreting the lifting of the stay imposed at STF to mean +that the 48 hour period provided in the appellate court decision to the Brazilian family to turn over Sean to the +Consulate has started ticking again — not restarted at the beginning, but resumed ticking. According to the Court, the +deadline for turnover at the Consulate falls at 6am local time on Thursday morning, December 24. Because of the early +hour, he will evidently order the family to turn over Sean at the consulate NO LATER than 9am on Thursday, December +24. However, he will also recommend, not order, that the family turn over Sean at the Consulate today/tonight in order +to permit him to travel to the U.S. on an overnight flight and spend Christmas with the family in the U.S. +There is current debate ongoing regarding the timing of the turnover.

Daniel Levy reportedly +replied that he would only facilitate these discussions on the condition that there were no further legal +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766618 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766618 Date: 08/31/2015 +machinations to delay implementation of the court order, and that the turnover happened today. We do +not/not know what if any conditions the family will try to place on a voluntary handover, so planning for police +execution of the court order continues. +• Interpol office in Brasilia has assured BCA and the Embassy LEGAT that they are fully aware of the status of the +case and are ready to provide support if Sean is not turned over. They will have action if the family attempts to +hide Sean. +• We have contacted WHA Press and CA Press separately to discuss timing to release statements if/when we are +successful with wheels up. +• We have discussed detailed contingency plans should the police be called upon to go to the family residence to +enforce the order if voluntary handover does not occur. Also have plans in place to supplement personnel in Rio +should this extend past today. +• We have a general sense of the timing of potential events: We expect to have more clarity from the attorneys +as to whether or not voluntary handover will occur around noon/1pm local time, which is 9/10 DC time. Should +police enforcement be required, that will likely mean mid/late afternoon local time. We will advise asap if this +timeline shifts (as it is likely to do, this being Brazil.) +Background Report from Tuesday evening / last nite +PART I +• Tomorrow morning between 8-9, David Goldman's Brazilian attorney will go to the court to obtain the warrant +enforcing the return of Sean Goldman to the U.S. He will wait there pending coordination with relevant police +and judicial authorities to ensure that everything is ready, and they will depart for the family compound to take +custody of Sean. +• Consulate General Rio will have cars ready at 9am for transport, and the team will be ready at the airport to +facilitate departure. +• David's attorney has spoken to judicial authorities and believes that the motions filed at ST1 will not be accepted +by the court, so will not interfere with the return. This does not preclude some last minute legal maneuvers, but +he seems confident that the decision by STF will effectively cut off other avenues. We will advise asap if this +changes. +PART II +• The Brazilian Central Authority confirms that the office of Regional Federal Court President Paulo Espirito Santo +has received the decision of STF President Gilmar Mendes. It is Paulo E-S who will be responsible for enforcing +the decision from Mendes, i.e. the return of Sean Goldman to the U.S. +• BCA has promised to reinforce for Interpol the urgent necessity of police in Rio monitoring the location of Sean +Goldman. Embassy LEGAT office is double-tracking. We cannot, of course, ask them to enforce anything until +the proper judicial authority has sent them instructions, but we strongly urge them to be prepared. +• BCA has turned over operational jurisdiction to Daniel Levy, from the AGU's office in Rio, to coordinate with +David Goldman's attorney and with the court in Rio. I have asked David's attorney to try and get some +understanding from Mr. Levy as to the timeline we can expect to see in this case. +What remains unclear: +• We do not know if the judge from the Regional Federal Court intends to issue an execution order from his home +tonight at this late hour, or if he will wait until opening of business tomorrow morning. Note that 00B here +generally means 10am for a court. This only underscores the need to ensure that there is sufficient monitoring +of Sean's whereabouts. +• We do not know how Judge Paulo E-S will interpret an ""immediate"" return order — it could mean right this +instant, or it could mean some brief period of time where the family is ordered/encouraged to turn Sean over at +the Consulate or some other site. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766618 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766618 Date: 08/31/2015 +• We are working to obtain some sense of whether this is likely to happen tonight, or if we are better served +getting some rest now and starting first thing 00B which for us means 7-8am. +• We have not had confirmation regarding the resolution of the motions in ST.I, but frankly, I don't foresee +receiving an answer on that before mid-day Wednesday. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766618 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3721,C05766619,NI,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-01-30T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0061/DOC_0C05766619/C05766619.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: NI,,"Sullivan, Jacobi ",,"Saturday, January 30, 2010 2:49 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766619,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,It's 745 pm -- they're still talking.

The four talked privately for several hours and then asked for the draft papers to review. The discussion +continued until around 1 am when the parties left Hillsborough. (Foster's presence is apparently very helpful. Her +relationship with the SF leaders is much more positive and direct, treating them as equal colleagues.) +Woodward and Irish FM Martin will meet with Adams and Robinson separately this afternoon to assess where the talks +are. The talks last night/early morning ended more positively and if that is still the case there may be a decision to push +on today to see if agreement can be reached. It is equally possible that the two ministers and DUP/SF will decide to +wind up today and resume on Monday. +Brown and Cowen have spoken this morning and will speak again late this afternoon. +The issue is still parades. Robinson needs some certainity of change on parades. It is important for him politically within +the DUP, but also externally since this has become a symbol of whether he has achieved something or compromised too +much. Adams and SF have moved very far from their original positions on parades, adding that Robinson has also +moved. +The DUP linkage of the timeframes for devolution and parades is not Robinson's goal but DUP deputy party leader Nigal +Dodds. Logistically, such a linkage would be impossible without delaying devolution given that the parades framework +requires consultation, legislation, and implementation. +The role of Justice Minister and his/her relationship to the Executive has been agreed. Other issues, such as Irish +language act, N-S bodies, etc, while symbolic and emotive for SF and the nationalists community can be dealt with. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766619 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3722,C05766621,FATHER BEIRNE,H,"Balderston, Kris M",112,2009-12-23T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05766621/C05766621.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: Father Beirne,,"Balderston, Kris M ","Valmoro, Lona J; Huma Abedin","Wednesday, December 23, 2009 11:09 AM",F-2014-20439,C05766621,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Sounds great.

They think the president-elect of Honduras will have a chance to +pursue national reconciliation, including a unity government. They also said the region needs better mechanisms to +head off coups and wondered about amending the IADC. +I told Sam about our step by step package approach and the vital role of elections in that package.

Sam said +Pathways could be a great vehicle for Honduras in that regard, and I said we were already looking at the Honduran +chairmanship of Pathways Working Group One as an opportune way forward. +In the short run, I said, it would be important for Guatemala, El Salvador and Nicaragua to avoid negative statements +about the elections and to say positive things after Monday if the vote goes smoothly. +Sam agreed to pass that message and said he would stay in touch. +ck +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766634 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3732,C05766635,"10 AMCITS ARRESTED WITH 33 CHILDREN, HEADED TO DR.

Uruguay has been a very constructive partner over the last +few months on Honduras. +• We strongly believe in the need to send a clear signal for the return of +democratic and constitutional order in the wake of the June 28 coup d'etat. We +all agree coups must remain a part of our past and have no place in our present +or future. +• We have remained firm on that principle and have acted upon our convictions +by cutting off aid and revoking visas. +• We also believe we must work to help Honduras move forward to restore +democratic and constitutional order. That is why we helped broker the +Tegucigalpa-San Jose Agreement. We are working hard to help the parties +implement that agreement, including the December 2 Congressional +deliberations on the matter of President Zelaya's restitution. +• Elections are a vital part of the overall solution. The Honduran elections follow +the normal calendar established by the Constitution. They were underway long +before the coup and involve candidates from a wide array of parties and +ideologies. The elections are being run not by the de facto regime but by the +Supreme Electoral Tribunal, which was itself chosen before the coup. +• We see the elections and the implementation of the Accord as part of a package. +Elections are necessary, though in themselves insufficient for a return to +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766647 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766647 Date: 07/31/2015 +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +-2- +democratic and constitutional order. However, we must stress they are +necessary. +• I encourage you to view the elections as a vital part of the democratic way +forward. +• The Honduran people and their institutions are trying to resolve this issue +according to the October 30 agreement. It is likely that the elections will +change the dynamic surrounding congressional discussions. +• If you have a chance, you might encourage President Zelaya to participate +positively in this process, which he agreed to on October 30. This is his +opportunity to return to office. +• [If Raised: Zelaya must be returned to office for elections to be +legitimate:] The Accord called for the Congress to vote on his restitution +expeditiously, and we will urge them to do that. It is critical that Honduras +forge a government of national unity before transferring power to the next +president. +• [If Raised: the November 26 Supreme Court opinion on President Zelaya's +restitution:] The Supreme Court's opinion on President Zelaya's restitution is +a separate matter and has no bearing on whether to hold elections or not. +Elections are a vital part of the solution and completely separate from President +Zelaya's restitution, as laid out in the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accords, which +President Zelaya signed. +Background: Iran/IAEA -- Though Uruguay has abstained from similar votes in +the past Uruguay recently voted with the United States on a resolution demanding +that Tehran immediately freeze construction of its newly-revealed nuclear facility +and heed Security Council resolutions to stop uranium enrichment. Significantly, +Uruguay broke with Brazil, which abstained on the vote. +Honduras -- The current Uruguayan government's position on the Honduras +elections is that Uruguay will not recognize the results of the November 29 +elections if they are carried out under the de facto regime. However, earlier in the +crisis, the Government of Uruguay was constructive about the importance of the +Hondurans working out their own problems, and at one point offered to play a +mediating role with Chile. Our hope is that Uruguay will understand that +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766647 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766647 Date: 07/31/2015 +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +-3- +international rejection of the Honduran elections will mean continuation of the +situation for months, if not years, to come. Uruguay tends to ally with Chile on +this and similar regional issues. +The Honduran Supreme Court issued an opinion November 26 on President +Zelaya's restoration to office, as requested by the Honduran Congress in +accordance with the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord. The opinion recommends that +the Congress vote against President Zelaya's restoration to office because he has +criminal charges pending against him. +Call Notes: +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766647 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3738,C05766648,(AP) HAITI PM: US BAPTISTS KNEW REMOVING KIDS WAS WRONG,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-02-01T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0062/DOC_0C05766648/C05766648.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: (AP) Haiti PM: U.S. Baptists knew removing kids was wrong,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Thompson, Hillary C","Monday, February 1, 2010 6:21 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766648,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766648 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Monday, February 1, 2010 6:21 PM +To: +Subject: FW: (AP) Haiti PM: U.S. Baptists knew removing kids was wrong +fyi +From: Deyo, Justin A +Sent: Monday, February 01, 2010 4:44 PM +To: NEWS-Mahogany +Cc: Thompson, Hillary C +Subject: (AP) Haiti PM: U.S. Baptists knew removing kids was wrong +PORT-AU-PRINCE (AP) - Haiti's prime minister says it's clear to him that the 10 U.S. Baptists who tried to take 33 Haitian +children out of the quake-ravaged country ""knew what they were doing was wrong.""

We are scheduled to leave on Saturday, December 26, but without a visa he of course cannot go and I will not go +without him. My visa has been issued by Travisa Outsourcing, the company to which the Government of India has +outsourced all visa processing. However, despite the fact that Travisa does all of India's visa processing, and ordinarily +does it on a same-day basis, their office here in Washington, DC (located in Georgetown) refused to process my son's +visa application because he is a California resident and they are organized so that their various offices (New York, +Washington, San Francisco, Chicago, and +Houston) issue visas only for residents of the immediate vicinity of the particular office. Thus, for example, the +Washington office issues visas for residents of Delaware, Washington, DC, Maryland, West Virginia, and the like, but will +not process visas for residents beyond this area. The New York office, likewise, processes visas only for residents of New +York, New Jersey, CT, and the like, but not Washington. My son of course has a valid US passport, but the visa +requirements also require proof of residence, and because his driver's license is a California license (because that is his +residence), Travisa Outsourcing said they could not process his visa application. +They insisted that he have proof of DC residence, even though he is my son and I am a DC resident. (If he were my +minor child, or my spouse, they would have let him travel with me, but he is 30 years old and so they insist on evaluating +his residency documents independently of mine even though we are traveling together.) +We went to the DC Motor Vehicle Department after leaving Travisa Outsourcing to see whether he could get a non- +driver's photo ID issued by the District but that could only be done if he relinquished his California driver's license, which +of course he was not prepared to do. (Even to find that out, we had to first go to the Social Security Administration to +get proof of his SSN, which of course he has in California but not with him, and then we went back to the DMV only to +learn that a non-driver's ID here was not a realistic option.) +We then went to the Embassy of India, at 2536 Mass. Ave., NW, which is the part of the embassy that deals with +passports and consular affairs. They do not handle visas, of course, because that has been outsourced to Travisa. +Nonetheless, I had hoped that we might get someone at the Embassy to agree to issue his visa here in Washington. +Although two polite gentlemen did speak to us, they insisted that his +visa could be issued only in San Francisco. Given the imminence of +the Christmas holidays and the impossibility of doing this either in person (he is already in Washington for Christmas and +thus he cannot get back to California to get his visa issued there and still get back to Washington for the holiday and our +departure from Washington on Saturday, Decemberr 26th) or by FedEx because of holiday closings, we have no choice +but to cancel our trip to India. This is a trip we planned together and I will not go without him, and the holidays mean +that we cannot realistically rearrange his flights to follow mine because, by the time he had a visa, the trip would be half +over. +I am not sure what can be done as I recognize that the decision is up to the Government of India but, as I mentioned, I +thought it was worth asking whether there was any way in which you might assist us. Should that prove possible, his +pertinent information (the information required by Travisa) is: +Type of visa requested - tourist Purpose of trip - vacation Places to be +visited - Delhi, Udaipur, Jaipur, Jodhpur, Agra He has never been to India before and is not traveling on behalf of any +company, nor is he holding a valid ""no objection to return to India"" endorsement (a question asked on Travisa's form) +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766690 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766690 Date: 08/31/2015 +His reference in India is our travel agent, +reference in the US is +India His +Huma, I do realize that there may be nothing that can be done, but I very much appreciate your sending this along to the +appropriate people who might be able to evaluate the situation.

You will see that in spite of our efforts to +protect the son, the Brazilian family chose to make a spectacle outside the Consulate this morning by parading Sean +through a crowd. Ms. Lamego recently visited the U.S. where she met with members of Congress and others to explain +all that the Brazilian Central Authority was doing to reunite Sean and his father under the Hague Convention. The +delays we saw in this case were largely the result of a wealthy, well connected family able to influence court decisions. +We are all relieved and thrilled to see this long overdue but very happy ending. I should also highlight the amazing +work done by US Mission Brazil. The consular staff, Charge, Acting DCM (Marie Damour, the Consul General in Brasilia), +LegATT, RSO, and a host of others all played a role in this successful return. My OCS DAS, Michele Bond, and her +dedicated team also played a big role in communicating with David, his lawyers, Congress, and the press. We had +Members of Congress, former Assistant Secretaries and US Ambassadors all pitching in. While there were +disagreements at times over tactics, we all agreed that we were working towards the same goal: the safe return of +Sean. +We particularly appreciate the strong support from the Secretary. Many people will try to take credit for today's happy +reunion but it was the Secretary's continued concern and interest in this case that made the difference.

This most despicable man is not accepting the fact that, despite his life long relationships with influential +authorities in Brazil, he was unable to win the case and Sean is finally being reunited with his only real father. +(just hope that David and the Goldman family find enough time to recover their lives and their relationship with Sean. +They need time more than anything else and now it is up to the US government to guarantee that David Goldman will not +have to face the maternal family once again in the US courts where, according to Mr. Tostes last declaration to the +Brazilian press, he will ""fight to defend the child"". +Please allow David Goldman to live in peace with his son and have the life that he deserves after fighting so much for so +many years. +In my name and in the name of all the staff of the Brazilian Central Authority I wish David, Sean, and their family all the +best and a most happy life once they are finally back in the United States. +And to all of you who worked so much in support of this case, our deepest gratitude.

You will see that in spite of our efforts to +protect the son, the Brazilian family chose to make a spectacle outside the Consulate this morning by parading Sean +through a crowd. Ms. Lamego recently visited the U.S. where she met with members of Congress and others to explain +all that the Brazilian Central Authority was doing to reunite Sean and his father under the Hague Convention. The +delays we saw in this case were largely the result of a wealthy, well connected family able to influence court decisions. +We are all relieved and thrilled to see this long overdue but very happy ending. I should also highlight the amazing +work done by US Mission Brazil. The consular staff, Charge, Acting DCM (Marie Damour, the Consul General in Brasilia), +LegATT, RSO, and a host of others all played a role in this successful return. My OCS DAS, Michele Bond, and her +dedicated team also played a big role in communicating with David, his lawyers, Congress, and the press.

He also came up with the idea for the International Finance Facility for Immunization to transform the +global system of vaccine financing, and worked to secure donor commitments of more than $5 billion for this +facility. Before joining the Gates Foundation, Shah was a health care policy advisor on the Al Gore presidential +campaign, 2000 and a member of Governor Ed Rendell's (D-PA) transition committee on health. +Shah earned his M.D. from the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and M.Sc. in Health Economics +at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. He is a graduate of the University of Michigan and +also attended the London School of Economics. +President Obama announced Shah's selection as Under Secretary of Research, Education, and Economics and +Chief Scientist on April 17, 2009. Shah's nomination was confirmed by the United States Senate by unanimous +consent on May 12, 2009. +Early life and family +Born to Indian immigrant parents who settled in Ann Arbor, Michigan in the late 60's, Raj Shah grew up in the +Detroit area and attended Wylie Groves High School. +He lives with his wife, Shivam, and their two young children, Sajan and Amna. He has one sister, Ami Shah, +who is a medical doctor. +Career +Raj Shah is currently the Under Secretary of Research, Education and Economics (REE) and Chief Scientist at +the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The REE mission area provides the science that federal agencies, policy +makers, researchers, and others draw on to meet challenges facing America's food and agriculture system. The +four REE agencies are the Agricultural Research Service (including the National Agricultural Library), the +Economic Research Service, the National Agricultural Statistics Service, and the Cooperative State Research, +Education and Extension Service. +Prior to his appointment at USDA Raj worked in a range of leadership roles at the Bill & Melinda Gates +Foundation to help the poorest people on earth lead healthy and productive lives. +As the Director of the Agricultural Development program, Shah oversaw the foundation's multi-billion dollar +portfolio of grant and program-related investments to help transform rural economies throughout the developing +world and help small farmers and their families overcome hunger and poverty. He led efforts to create the +Alliancefor a Green Revolution in Africa, helped recruit its leadership including UN Secretary General Kofi +Annan, and serves on its Board of Directors. He oversaw grant portfolios in science and technology; farmer +productivity; market access; and policy, statistics and advocacy; and managed a team of more than 60 +professionals. He also developed innovative partnerships with private industry, the United Nations, the World +Bank, and country governments around the world, where he was an active voice on issues related to food and +hunger. +As the Foundation's first Director for the Financial Services to the Poor portfolio, Shah worked with a broad +range of financial institutions and other donors to determine how Foundation resources could best amplify the +field's collective impact. Previously, he led the Strategic Opportunities initiative which worked with Foundation +co-chairs to identify, assess and recommend new areas of giving. This process led to the creation of the +Foundation's Global Development Program. +Shah's early work with the Foundation focused on global health. As Deputy Director for Policy and Finance, +Raj managed the Foundation's $1.5 billion commitment to the Vaccine Fund — an effort referred to by Bill and +Melinda Gates as their best investment. He also came up with the idea for the International Finance Facility for +Immunization to transform the global system of vaccine financing and worked to secure donor commitments of +more than $5 billion for this facility.

A strong, unified signal to Iran is vital as we continue to +move forward. We hope Argentina will also join us in combating the shared +global threat of nuclear terrorism and help advance nuclear security-related +efforts, such as the planning underway for President Obama's upcoming Global +Nuclear Security Summit and the longstanding nuclear security related work in +the IAEA. +• Honduras: We believe strongly in the need to send a decisive signal about the +return of democratic and constitutional order in the wake of the June 28 coup +d'etat. +• We all agree that military coups must remain part of our past. We have +remained firm on that principle and have acted upon our convictions through +aid cutoffs and visa revocations. +• We also believe that we must work to help Honduras move forward to restore +democratic and constitutional order. That is why we got involved to help +broker the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Agreement. We are working hard to help the +parties implement that agreement, including the December 2 congressional +deliberations on the matter of President Zelaya's restitution. +• Elections are a vital part of the overall solution. The Honduran elections follow +the normal calendar established by the constitution. They got underway long +before the coup and involve candidates from a wide array of parties and +ideologies. The elections are being run not by the de facto regime, but by the +Supreme Electoral Tribunal, which was itself chosen before the coup. +• We see the elections and the implementation of the Accord as part of a package. +I encourage you to also view the elections as a vital part of the democratic way +forward and to support the people of Honduras and their newly elected +Classified by DAS, A/GIS, DoS on 07/30/2015 — Class: CONFIDENTIAL +— Reason: 1.4(B), 1.4(D), B1 — Declassify on: 11/27/2024 +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766832 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766832 Date: 07/31/2015 +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSIFIED +-2- +government as they move forward to restore Honduras to a functioning +democracy as quickly as possible. +• [If Raised: Zelaya must be returned to office for elections to be legitimate]: +The Accord called for the Congress to vote on his restitution expeditiously, and +we urge them to do that. It is critical that Honduras forge a government of +national unity before transferring power to the next president. +• [If Raised: November 26 Supreme Court opinion on President Zelaya's +restitution]: The Supreme Court's opinion on President Zelaya's restitution is +a separate matter and has no relationship to the holding of elections. Elections +are a vital part of the solution and completely separate from the issue of +President Zelaya's restitution, as laid out in the Tegucigalpa-San Jose Accord +which President Zelaya signed. +• Copenhagen Accord on Climate Change: The White House just announced +that, in the context of an overall deal in Copenhagen, the President is prepared +to put forward a U.S. emissions reduction target in the range of 17 percent +below 2005 levels in 2020. These targets represent levels 18 percent below +1990 by 2025 and 33 percent below 1990 by 2030, in line with final U.S. +legislation. +• A successful outcome in Copenhagen is critical. Danish Prime Minister Lars +Rasmussen has proposed a ""politically binding"" operational agreement that +would cover all the main issues. We support this proposal, and hope you will, +too. It is not a substitute for a legal agreement, but will advance such an +agreement. +• All countries, from the most vulnerable to those with greater capacity, would +benefit from getting started with a good deal that sets us on a path to avoid the +worst dangers of climate change, and provides new financing opportunities. +• Success will require positive engagement by all.

The +delays we saw in this case were largely the result of a wealthy, well connected family able to influence court decisions. +We are all relieved and thrilled to see this long overdue but very happy ending.

Please share with Hillary if she hasn't seen it. +Best, +Irwin +As Haiti recovers, give children special attention +*By Irwin Redlener* +Given the extraordinary destruction wrought by last month's earthquake +in Haiti, few will be surprised if this catastrophe is recorded as one +of the deadliest natural disasters in recent history. But what is not +well appreciated is that this disaster could disproportionately impact +children, not only those who perished in the initial shocks, but also +those who will not survive what is likely to be a cruel aftermath. +*Photo gallery:* + As +Haiti struggled to pull itself together in the days immediately +following the 7.0 earthquake that hit the island nation, one Iowa family +was waiting to hear whether the child they had pledged to adopt three +years ago was still alive. +Before the quake, many of the 380,000 children living in shelters + +were placed there out of economic desperation; families could not afford +to care for them. Now, many more children displaced by the earthquake +will literally have no surviving family members, further swelling demand +on social service agencies throughout the country. +*Kids at risk* +As the U.S. and other countries make plans to help Haiti get back on its +feet, emphasis should be on enhancing that nation's resiliency — and +that will mean dealing with the needs of- its children. The unusual +extent of child casualties will be driven by several factors: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766861 Date: 08/31/2015 +B6 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766861 Date: 08/31/2015 +• About 50% of the Haitian population of 9 million is younger than 18 +. Even more striking is +the fact that children 14 years of age and less make up more than 38%. +• Everything about a natural disaster puts children at greater risk. A +comparatively small chunk of dislodged ceiling would injure an adult, +but it might well kill an infant or small child. Water deprivation will +lead far more rapidly to dehydration and shock in an infant than it +would in an adult. +• Some seriously injured children have survived the initial trauma +because they were among the few to get surgical attention provided by +international medical teams. But access to follow-up care could be an +overwhelming challenge. Compounding concerns, the Ministry of Health at +one point asked physicians not to provide medical care + +that can't be sustained in Haiti. +*Long-term needs* +Between 1 million to 2 million Haitians will be ""displaced"" for the +foreseeable future. This means a minimum of 400,000 to 800,000 children +will be in temporary shelter for months or years. But the rainy season +is coming in May, followed by hurricane season in June. Families in +tents or other flimsy shelters will be at grave risk. +• What about the psychological impact? Grieving over loss and trauma +carries the potential of long-term consequences for every Haitian, +especially the countless children. +Then there are Haiti's chronic problems that must be addressed head-on. +For decades, Haitians have experienced a seemingly intractable state of +poverty, accompanied by malnutrition and high rates of acute and chronic +illness. More than 50% of Haitians live on less than a dollar a day, and +. more than 60% of its young children have nutritional anemia. +Despite the efforts of international agencies and non-governmental +organizations, chronic illness abounds and access to clean water, +medical care and sanitation remains a significant challenge for +Haitians, particularly children. +This is why the recovery and rebuilding of this fragile nation must +begin and end with a central focus on the immediate and long-term needs +of children. If there is to be a glimmer of hope for Haiti, it will be +because the international community understands that the capacity to +rise from the ashes of catastrophe is directly related to the health, +well-being and potential of its youngest generation. +/Irwin Redlener is the director of the National Center for Disaster +Preparedness, Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health, and +president of the Children's Health Fund./ +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766861 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766861 Date: 08/31/2015 +/(Getty Images.)/ +Posted at 12:15 AM/ET, February 10, 2010 in Foreign Affairs - Latin +America - Forum + I +Permalink + +USA TODAY welcomes your views and encourages lively -- but civil -- +discussions.

It was launched three years ago +and is owned by the Dawn Group Newspaper, the country's oldest media organization +founded by Jinnah (established before the creation of Pakistan in 1943). Dawn TV's +audience is nationwide but because it is English-only, the audience is mostly well educated, +NGO's, diplomatic and government circles. To expand reach, additional Pakistani channels +will run the interview with Urdu sub-titles. +Geo TV is Pakistan's largest 24-hour satellite news channel in Pakistan. The television +network was founded in May 2002, and is part of the Independent Media Group. The +Independent Media Group also owns Pakistan's second largest English daily newspaper (The +News) and the largest Urdu language newspaper (Daily Jang). In 2007, the Pakistani +government halted the transmission of Geo News following the network's coverage of the +demonstrations against President Musharraf s suspension of the Chief Justice Chaudhry. +Since assuming office, President Zardari has also temporarily banned Geo TV and other +private broadcasters. The station was suspended in March 2009 following its coverage of +protests for the restoration of the Supreme Court Justices dismissed by former President +Musharraf. Geo TV's transmission was also suspended by the government during the siege +of Pakistan's military headquarters by suspected Pakistani Taliban militants on October 10, +2009. +Pre-Trip Media Brief Page 3 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766868 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766868 Date: 07/31/2015 +BIOGRAPHIES OF INTERVIEWERS +Mr. Anwar Iqbal has over 20 years of experience with various international media +organizations covering a variety of beats -- from city affairs to international politics.

The potential for economic +growth and for influence in the region is, in my view, as great as any country's. But there has to be +a commitment to trying to focus on the internal developments of Pakistan, and that requires +dealing with and trying to resolve some of the outstanding concerns. +QUESTION: With India? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes, with India. +QUESTION: And according to the media report, you're going to conclude two agreements during +this visit: for nuclear plants and for selling 126 fighter jets to India. Do Pakistanis have reasons to +fear the outcome of your visit? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Not at all. And we don't yet have any agreements resolved between us, +but my goal in going to India is to work with the Indian Government on a range of issues - +agriculture, health, education, strategic cooperation, climate change, clean energy, just a very vast +array of concern. And I think that all of these issues are ones that are important not only to +Indians, but, I would argue, also to Pakistanis. Trade between India and Pakistan, if were ever able +to come to that point, would benefit both countries. Cooperation across borders on matters having +to do with agriculture, education, so many other issues would be mutually beneficial. +So the point of our trip is to certainly broaden and deepen our relationship with India. And I will be +coming to Pakistan in the fall and be looking to do the exact same thing with Pakistan. +QUESTION: But whenever somebody says that they would want India to play a leading role in the +region, and you said that this week, the Pakistanis fear that perhaps it would translate to a +subservient role for Pakistan and will lead to bullying by Afghanistan. How would you allay these +fears? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, that is certainly not at all what is intended. I think that what we see +now in the region is a very courageous, sustained effort by Pakistan against the internal +miscreants, those who would destabilize the Pakistani Government and democracy, who kill +innocent people, who are - they are not at all part of Pakistan's future. +And so what Pakistan is doing is, in my view, very important, as Pakistan tries to stabilize your +democracy so that you can build on development. Actual economic development was going well. +Pre-Trip Media Brief Page 15 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766868 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766868 Date: 07/31/2015 +There were a lot of positive steps. And some of the government's policies are working out well. +There seems to be a growing acceptance of how Pakistan is doing with the global economic +recession. But the constant threat from the internal terrorists is one that has to be dealt with in +order for Pakistan to grow and flourish. +So I see what is happening in Pakistan as a necessary set.of steps to get Pakistan to the point +where the future is unlimited. With India, I think India has had steady growth. They've had a very +clear set of goals that they've been able to pursue because they are a largely stable and internally +secure country now. That's what I want to see for Pakistan. And then I think you can be in a +friendly competition for jobs and for prosperity and for growth and for education statistics. +I often say that when Pakistani Americans come to the United States, they are among the most +successful people in our country, and they are among our professionals and our business leaders +and our academics and in every other walk of life. I would hope to see a day when Pakistanis would +have the same opportunities in their own country, and that's what I would like to work toward with +you. +QUESTION: You actually, help found an organization called the Pakistan Foundation. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yes. +QUESTION: What are your expectations from the Pakistan Foundation? +SECRETARY CLINTON: It's interesting because - as you know, because we have some mutual +friends, there are so many Pakistani Americans who are very successful financially. They still have +family in Pakistan. They travel often back to Pakistan. They have a very deep connection to their +homeland. And I thought it would be important to try to convince Pakistani Americans to be putting +forward financial resources to work back in Pakistan. +And I know; I have friends who have done that. They've built schools, they've built health clinics, +but to do it in an organized way. So we created the idea and then turned it over to the Pakistani +Americans and the Pakistan Government, which was very interested. And so people are raising +money and identifying projects. +We also reached out to Pakistani American doctors and asked if they'd be willing to serve and care +for the internally displaced people, because of the fighting against the Taliban and al-Qaeda and all +of their allies. And so we have Pakistani American doctors taking vacation, going to Swat or Bunair +or other places to provide medical care. +So I think that there is an opportunity for Pakistani Americans to feel more committed and +connected to the future that you are building in Pakistan. +QUESTION: Now, the anti-Americanism in Pakistan. We know that both governments are +committed to fighting terrorism, and there is a realization in Pakistan too - that this is a war that +they need to win. But this somehow does not convey to the people there. They don't trust the US +and still have a lot anti-American feelings. So how do you overcome this problem? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I hope that more and more people in Pakistan understand that +President Obama and I have no other interest than providing assistance to the Pakistani people, +and, increasingly, Americans - not just the Pakistani Americans, but other Americans want to help +the people of Pakistan. We are not in any way making decisions, interfering or dictating. That is not +our intent at all. But we want to be helpful because we see this courageous fight that you are +waging. We know how hard it is because we are fighting the same enemy. We have been attacked. +We know what that means. +We also see how the vast majority of Pakistanis just want a better life for themselves and their +children. So if we can be helpful in helping to provide schools or textbooks or health programs and +physicians, nurses, things that will actually help improve the daily lives of the people of Pakistan, +that's what we are interested in doing. +Pre-Trip Media Brief Page 16 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766868 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766868 Date: 07/31/2015 +QUESTION: You once said that America too - made mistakes in Pakistan. What were those +mistakes and how would you avoid them? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I think that if you go back and look at the history between the +United States and Pakistan, we were not always as sensitive or understanding of the needs of the +Pakistani people. We were not always constant in our support and our friendship for Pakistan. We +encouraged Pakistan to create the forces that fought against the Soviet Union occupation in +Afghanistan and then left you to deal with the aftermath. So it's been, I would argue, a relationship +that hasn't been as constant and as effective as we would want it to be. +Now, we will continue to make mistakes. I mean, we are just human beings; we know that. But we +want to be as honest in admitting them as possible, learning from them, and then trying to move +forward. We weren't as supportive of Pakistan's democracy as we could have and should have been +in the past. +But our goal now is to be there as a constant friend and a country that Pakistan, not just the +government, but the people can rely on to build up more trust and understanding between us, and +to be of assistance when asked by Pakistan. +QUESTION: And do you have complaints against Pakistan too - particularly when you see that the +Pakistani people, the Pakistani administration, and the Pakistani media fail to understand your +point of view, they fail to appreciate your sentiments? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I think it requires time. We have started a much deeper +engagement with Pakistan on all levels. We've even established a trilateral relationship between +the United States, Pakistan, and Afghanistan to try to work through some of the common problems +we face. I hope that there is a growing awareness that President Obama and I care deeply about +the future of Pakistan, and particularly want to reverse some of the misconceptions and +perceptions that existed in the past. +So I hope that we're going to be given a fair hearing. I hope that people will look at us and say +there is something different here, it's not the same old, same old attitude. +I know that President Obama, when he spoke with you, talked about how much he loved Pakistani +food. I -- +QUESTION: And do you? +SECRETARY CLINTON: I echo that. I am also a fan. +But it's more than that. It's a sense that the people of Pakistan are working hard for a better +future. And we want to be of help. And we have no - we have no claims, we have no interest other +than assisting you in achieving the kind of sovereignty and self-determination and very solid +democracy, and then results for people. I mean, democracy in and of itself is only the means to an +end of a better life, so that every child has a chance to live up to his or her God-given potential to +get an education, to get the healthcare he or she needs, to have their parents have jobs with rising +wages and dignity. I mean, that's what all people are looking for, and the people of Pakistan +deserve that. +QUESTION: Drone attacks. I think it was Senator John Kerry, who stated they are making more +enemies than they are killing. Do you agree with this comment? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I don't comment on any matter that is of that nature. But I think +that what we see is what's happening on the ground with the Pakistani army and the sacrifices that +they're making. And I think that it's important that we pursue joint efforts against those who would +murder innocent Pakistanis, innocent Americans, innocent Indians, people who were just going +about their daily lives and have no reason to be targeted the way that they are. +Pre-Trip Media Brief Page 17 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766868 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766868 Date: 07/31/2015 +So our goal is to see you and help you in whatever way is appropriate to defeat the enemy who +wants to totally, radically change Pakistan. +QUESTION: Yesterday, you said in your speech that there was some good Taliban in Afghanistan, +I mean, you didn't use the word, good Taliban, but indicated that. Are there good Taliban in +Pakistan and can they be engaged too? +SECRETARY CLINTON: I think that would be up to the Pakistani Government to determine, but it +does seem to us that people get caught up in these organizations, sometimes because they're paid, +sometimes because they're intimidated, sometimes because they think there is - that they mean +something other than what they do. And for those who are willing to put down arms against the +Pakistani Government, who are willing to renounce violence and try to work to achieve a better life +for themselves in connection with the democracy that Pakistan is, I certainly think that it would be +appropriate for Pakistan to consider that. +But I am reminded that Pakistan did try that. Pakistan tried to, in a very open way, reach an +agreement with the Taliban and their related organization. And I'm told they didn't keep it. I mean, +they didn't abide by it. They resumed their aggressive behavior, their violence, their terrorism. So I +think that it's up to the Pakistani Government, of course, to decide what's appropriate for Pakistan. +QUESTION: President Obama (inaudible), in an interview, he talked about (inaudible) -- +SECRETARY CLINTON: That's okay. +QUESTION: Talked about Taliban issue - sorry, just -- +SECRETARY CLINTON: Yeah, no problem. +QUESTION: There are some in Pakistan who say that Indians are using Balochistan to interfere in +BaloChistan. Will you discuss this with the India? In his inaugural speech, President Obama said +that Kashmir is one issue that needs to be resolved. And now, your administration does not seem +to talk about it. It seems that they no longer see Kashmir as an issue that needs to be resolved. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, I'm going to raise everything that we believe is of significance with +the Indian Government. I believe that it is in India's interest for Pakistan to be stable, democratic, +free of terrorism. I think that the disputes between India and Pakistan, which are historical and +long-standing, should be looked at with fresh eyes, and there should be an effort to build some +mutual trust. And from what I hear, it was a very good meeting between Prime Minister Singh and +Prime Minister Gillani. +The United States stands ready to support the steps that India and Pakistan may take together, +but we know that the only way these matters can be finally resolved is between the two countries, +but it's not just the government, but the people. And so we will encourage that, but we know that +it has to be left to Pakistan and India for there to be any resolution. +QUESTION: So Kashmir is still seen as a dispute that needs to be resolved? +SECRETARY CLINTON: Well, it certainly should be on the agenda of discussion between India and +Pakistan. +QUESTION: Thank you very much. +SECRETARY CLINTON: Thank you. It was good to talk to you. Thank you. +Pre-Trip Media Brief Page 18 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766868 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3840,C05766870,FOLLOW UP NOTES,williamsbarrett,cheryl.mills,32,2009-11-29T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_050/DOC_0C05766870/C05766870.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,Re: Follow up notes,williamsbarret,Cheryl Mills,H,"Sunday, November 29, 2009 1:52 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766870,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Maggie: +will call you. +Political - Philippe is supposed to be preparing a end of year document - both accomplishments and how to get +it in the narrative before mid-Dec when retrospectives start in earnest. +Foreign Policy - we have a tenative list from Michael Fuchs i will email to you - it still needs work.

Posted Friday, November 27, 2009 10:41 AM +Eric Goosby: No Hold on PEPFAR Funds for Uganda +Katie Paul +Stigma is anathema to effective public-health work, but that's never stopped homophobic crusaders from +mucking up the fight against HIV/AIDS before. Now, just as the South African government is finally changing +its tune on the matter, Uganda is emerging as the world's new problem country. The recipient of $287 million in +PEPFAR funds last year, Uganda is also the site of a vicious campaign against homosexuality, which took a +turn for the worse last month when the ""Anti-Homosexuality Bill"" was introduced to Parliament. The bill +threatens harsher punishments for actual or even perceived homosexual activity, which is already illegal under +Ugandan law; convicted offenders could face the death penalty. ""Promoting homosexuality"" would also be +illegal, as would a failure to report any of the above to police within 24 hours. +Even by regional standards, such penalties would be exceptionally harsh, especially since they would +effectively criminalize the work of HIV/AIDS prevention efforts under the ""promotion of homosexuality +clause."" The thinking behind them is just as disturbing, since this latest round of antigay fervor was kicked off +at a conference held by by American missionary groups that went to proselytize about the twin evils of Nazism +and homosexual behavior in Kampala earlier this year. Just to hammer home how far-out that is, this means the +Ugandan government got its advice from the author of a book called The Pink Swastika: Homosexuality in the +Nazi Party, which claims the Nazi movement was ""entirely controlled by militaristic male homosexuals +throughout its short history."" The result has been a vigilante campaign against the country's LGBT community, +whereby gay detainees are tortured and tabloids publish the names, places of employment, addresses, and +physical descriptions of gay-rights advocates under headlines that scream ""TOP HOMOS IN UGANDA +NAMED."" It would seem the stuff of Orwellian parody, but it's real. +As the witchhunt in Kampala has heated up, so too have calls for U.S. policymakers to take a stand. In an article +for the Los Angeles Times, TNR editor James Kirchick called for PEPFAR to withhold its funding for +HIV/AIDS programming in Uganda unless its legislators abandon the legislation, which has been tabled for +now. But in an interview with NEWSWEEK this week, PEPFAR chief Eric Goosby said he didn't have a dog in +that fight: +I'm very concerned about any decision that any country#ncluding our own.would make to target a group +that's in the population, and that's always been in the population, by excluding them from a service or passes +legislation that criminalizes their behavior. Every time you do that, you push the behavior underground. It +never works. Rather than minimizing the spread of the virus, it actually amplifies it. +The U.S. policy is trying to work with governments to say exactly that. I think I would do more harm than good +by connecting our resources to respond to the epidemic to making them dependent on a behavior that they're +not willing to engage in on their own. My role is to be supportive and helpful to the patients who need these +services. It is not to tell a country how to put forward their legislation. But I will engage them in conversation +around my concern and knowledge of what this is going to do to that population, and our ability to stop the +movement of the virus into the general population. +So, for all those who hoped that PEPFAR funding might be used as a hammer to pressure the Ugandan powers- +that-be to abandon their crusade: no dice. The Obama era is the dialogue era; don't pick fights, but persuade +through elegant theses. That said, since the moral argument clearly hasn't convinced the Ugandan authorities of +the errors of their ways, one can only hope that Goosby's public-health argument will. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766888 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766888 Date: 07/31/2015 +PRIVATE NETWORK - BY INVITATION ONLY - CONFIDENTIAL - DO NOT DISTRIBUTE +*To review the Discussion Guidelines: www.eQualityGiving.org/Discussion +*To email all members reply to this email or send a new email to: Members@Network.eQualityGiving.org +*To manage volume of emails: www.eQualityGiving.org/Tips +*To invite other people, email the hosts: Founders@eQualityGiving.org +*To send a private email to the hosts: Founders@eQualityGiving.org +*To change your email address: www.eQualityGiving.org/Change +*To unsubscribe: Members-leave@Network.eQualityGiving.org +Richard Socarides, Esq. +Brady Klein Weissman LLP +501 Fifth Avenue, 19th Floor, New York, NY 10017 +w: 212.949.5800 4em: B6 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766888 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3849,C05766890,FYI...

McChrystal that he was not granting McChrystal's request to double the size of the Afghan army and police. +Cost was a factor, as were questions about whether the capacity exists to train 400,000 personnel. The president told +McChrystal, the top commander of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan, to focus for now on fielding a little more than +half that number by next October. +Ten days after Obama's speech, the U.S. command responsible for training the Afghans circulated a chart detailing the +combined personnel targets for the army and police. McChrystal's goal of 400,000 remained unchanged. +""It's an open issue,"" a senior Pentagon official said last week. +Nearly a month after Obama unveiled his revised Afghanistan strategy, military and civilian leaders have come away with +differing views of several fundamental aspects of the president's new approach, according to more than a dozen senior +administration and military officials involved in Afghanistan policy, all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity to +discuss internal deliberations. +Members of Obama's war cabinet disagree over the meaning of his pledge to begin drawing down forces in July 2011 and +whether the mission has been narrowed from a proposal advanced by McChrystal in his August assessment of the war. +The disagreements have opened a fault line between a desire for an early exit among several senior officials at the White +House and a conviction among military commanders that victory is still achievable on their terms. +The differences are complicating implementation of the new strategy. Some officers have responded to the July 2011 date +by seeking to accelerate the pace of operations, instead of narrowing them. At the White House, a senior administration +official said, the National Security Council is discussing ways to increase monitoring of military and State Department +activities in Afghanistan to prevent ""overreaching."" +The NSC's strategic guidance, a classified document that outlines the president's new approach, was described by the +senior administration official as limiting military operations ""in scale and scope to the minimum required to achieve two +goals -- to prevent ai-Qaeda safe havens and to prevent the Taliban from toppling the government."" The use of resource- +intensive counterinsurgency tactics -- employing U.S. forces to protect Afghan civilians from the Taliban -- is supposed to +be restricted to key cities and towns in southern and eastern parts of the country, the official said. +""The strategy has fundamentally changed. This is not a COIN strategy,"" Vice President Biden said on MSNBC last week, +using the military's shorthand for counterinsurgency. ""This is not 'go out and occupy the whole country.' "" +Setting limits +During a videoconference two days before the speech, Obama made it clear to McChristal and U.S. Ambassador Karl W. +Eikenberry that he did not want the additional troops to fuel a broader mission. Speaking to both men from the White +House Situation Room, the president told them not to deploy the forces to areas they would not be able to transfer to +Afghan security forces by July 2011, according to two senior officials with knowledge of the conversation. +Obama's essential instruction was, according to one of the officials, ""Don't bite off more than you can chew."" +White House officials said the president opposes using the forces he has authorized to duplicate an expansive, iraq-style +counterinsurgency operation -- in part because he questions whether it will be possible to achieve a similar outcome in +Afghanistan, which is less developed, and because he wants to start reducing troops in 18 months. The White House's +desired end state in Afghanistan, officials said, envisions more informal local security arrangements than in Iraq, a less- +capable national government and a greater tolerance of insurgent violence. +Senior military officials still think they can achieve a better outcome than envisaged by civilian skeptics in the +administration by using the new forces to mount more comprehensive counterinsurgency operations. Although Pentagon +strategists and McChrystal's advisers in Kabul are looking at how they can fulfill the White House desire for a less +extensive mission, military officials said they are reluctant to strip too much away and weaken an approach that has come +to be revered within the ranks as the only way to suppress guerrilla movements. +Military officials contend that McChrystal does not harbor expansionist aims. They note that he has begun removing +troops from remote mountain valleys and concentrating resources on a modest number of key population centers. But the +approach in those areas will involve counterinsurgency tactics: Troops will focus on restoring normal patterns of life by +trying to keep the Taliban at bay, helping the Afghan government provide basic services to the population and training +local security forces. +McChrystal's plan, the senior Pentagon official said, ""is still counterinsurgency, regardless of the various agendas people +are trying to spin."" +Dissent over drawdown +During strategy discussions at the White House, differences between the White House and the military came into sharp +relief over °baffle's decision to announce his intention to begin drawing down troops in July 2011. +McChrystal argued against it, according to three officials familiar with the process. The head of the U.S. Central +Command, Gen. David H. Petraeus, also expressed concerns. Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates urged Obama to +make the drawdoWn ""conditions-based."" +""There was a lot of push back"" from the Defense Department, one of the officials said. +The president received cover from one uniformed general at the table, James E. Cartwright, the vice chairman of the Joint +Chiefs of Staff. Cartwright had adopted a more skeptical view of the mission than many of his military colleagues, one that +resonated with Obama and Biden. +Cartwright effectively endorsed the July 2011 date, arguing that increasing forces and engaging in limited +counterinsurgency made sense, the senior administration official said, ""but given the risk factors -- Pakistan, the Karzai +government, the whole notion of sub-national governance and our track record with the [Afghan security forces], which is +not prestigious -- that it made sense to demonstrate that we could actually do this."" +It. also helped Obama that the principal troop-increase proposal being discussed at the time -- a recommendation that +McChrystal receive 30,000 forces for 18 to 24 months -- had been developed by Gates. The Defense Department +paperwork detailing the proposal identified the increase as starting in the summer of 2009, when the first troops deployed +by the president this year began conducting operations in Afghanistan, but it did not specify an end date. +""Rather than leaving this indefinite and hypothetical, the president's intervention was to say, 'Okay, if we're starting in July +of '09, then we're really talking about July of '11,"" said the senior administration official who described the NSC guidance. +Obama eventually told his war cabinet that he would announce the July 2011 deadline but that the pace of withdrawals +would be determined, as Gates had sought, by conditions on the ground. Obama said he would conduct a thorough +review of progress in a year's time. Although he did not endorse McChrystal's request to increase the Afghan security +forces to 400,000, he said he would reevaluate the issue once the 2010 goal of training 230,000 forces is achieved. +The president avoided details in his Dec. 1 address, leaving it up to members of his Cabinet and to his advisers to explain +the specifics. The result has been a wide divergence of expectations. Gates, appearing on NBC's ""Meet the Press"" the +Sunday after the speech, said that perhaps only ""some handful or some small number"" would be withdrawn. Biden, during +his MSNBC appearance last week, said a chart showing an increase in U.S. deployments this year would be ""coming +down as rapidly over the next two years."" +The ambiguity over the meaning of the July 2011 deadline has generated uncertainty over the presidents intent. ""Is the +surge a way of helping us leave more quickly, or is the timeline a way to help win support for the surge?"" asked a senior +Democratic staff member in Congress. ""Which is the strategy and which is the head-fake?

McChrystal that he was not granting McChrystal's request to double the size of the Afghan army and police. +Cost was a factor, as were questions about whether the capacity exists to train 400,000 personnel. The president told +McChrystal, the top commander of U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan, to focus for now on fielding a little more than +half that number by next October. +Ten days after Obama's speech, the U.S. command responsible for training the Afghans circulated a chart detailing the +combined personnel targets for the army and police. McChrystal's goal of 400,000 remained unchanged. +""It's an open issue,"" a senior Pentagon official said last week. +Nearly a month after Obama unveiled his revised Afghanistan strategy, military and civilian leaders have come away with +differing views of several fundamental aspects of the president's new approach, according to more than a dozen senior +administration and military officials involved in Afghanistan policy, all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity to +discuss internal deliberations. +Members of Obama's war cabinet disagree over the meaning of his pledge to begin drawing down forces in July 2011 and +whether the mission has been narrowed from a proposal advanced by McChrystal in his August assessment of the war. +The disagreements have opened a fault line between a desire for an early exit among several senior officials at the White +House and a conviction among military commanders that victory is still achievable on their terms. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766890 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766890 Date: 08/31/2015 +The differences are complicating implementation of the new strategy. Some officers have responded to the July 2011 date +by seeking to accelerate the pace of operations, instead of narrowing them. At the White House, a senior administration +official said, the National Security Council is discussing ways to increase monitoring of military and State Department +activities in Afghanistan to prevent ""overreaching."" +The NSC's strategic guidance, a classified document that outlines the president's new approach, was described by the +senior administration official as limiting military operations ""in scale and scope to the minimum required to achieve two +goals -- to prevent ai-Qaeda safe havens and to prevent the Taliban from toppling the government.""

"" +Setting limits +During a videoconference two days before the speech, Obama made it clear to McChristal and U.S. Ambassador Karl W. +Eikenberry that he did not want the additional troops to fuel a broader mission. Speaking to both men from the White +House Situation Room, the president told them not to deploy the forces to areas they would not be able to transfer to +Afghan security forces by July 2011, according to two senior officials with knowledge of the conversation. +Obama's essential instruction was, according to one of the officials, ""Don't bite off more than you can chew."" +White House officials said the president opposes using the forces he has authorized to duplicate an expansive, iraq-style +counterinsurgency operation -- in part because he questions whether it will be possible to achieve a similar outcome in +Afghanistan, which is less developed, and because he wants to start reducing troops in 18 months. The White House's +desired end state in Afghanistan, officials said, envisions more informal local security arrangements than in Iraq, a less- +capable national government and a greater tolerance of insurgent violence. +Senior military officials still think they can achieve a better outcome than envisaged by civilian skeptics in the +administration by using the new forces to mount more comprehensive counterinsurgency operations. Although Pentagon +strategists and McChrystal's advisers in Kabul are looking at how they can fulfill the White House desire for a less +extensive mission, military officials said they are reluctant to strip too much away and weaken an approach that has come +to be revered within the ranks as the only way to suppress guerrilla movements. +Military officials contend that McChrystal does not harbor expansionist aims. They note that he has begun removing +troops from remote mountain valleys and concentrating resources on a modest number of key population centers. But the +approach in those areas will involve counterinsurgency tactics: Troops will focus on restoring normal patterns of life by +trying to keep the Taliban at bay, helping the Afghan government provide basic services to the population and training +local security forces. +McChrystal's plan, the senior Pentagon official said, ""is still counterinsurgency, regardless of the various agendas people +are trying to spin."" +Dissent over drawdown +During strategy discussions at the White House, differences between the White House and the military came into sharp +relief over °baffle's decision to announce his intention to begin drawing down troops in July 2011. +McChrystal argued against it, according to three officials familiar with the process. The head of the U.S. Central +Command, Gen. David H. Petraeus, also expressed concerns. Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates urged Obama to +make the drawdoWn ""conditions-based."" +""There was a lot of push back"" from the Defense Department, one of the officials said. +The president received cover from one uniformed general at the table, James E. Cartwright, the vice chairman of the Joint +Chiefs of Staff. Cartwright had adopted a more skeptical view of the mission than many of his military colleagues, one that +resonated with Obama and Biden. +Cartwright effectively endorsed the July 2011 date, arguing that increasing forces and engaging in limited +counterinsurgency made sense, the senior administration official said, ""but given the risk factors -- Pakistan, the Karzai +government, the whole notion of sub-national governance and our track record with the [Afghan security forces], which is +not prestigious -- that it made sense to demonstrate that we could actually do this."" +It. also helped Obama that the principal troop-increase proposal being discussed at the time -- a recommendation that +McChrystal receive 30,000 forces for 18 to 24 months -- had been developed by Gates. The Defense Department +paperwork detailing the proposal identified the increase as starting in the summer of 2009, when the first troops deployed +by the president this year began conducting operations in Afghanistan, but it did not specify an end date. +""Rather than leaving this indefinite and hypothetical, the president's intervention was to say, 'Okay, if we're starting in July +of '09, then we're really talking about July of '11,"" said the senior administration official who described the NSC guidance. +Obama eventually told his war cabinet that he would announce the July 2011 deadline but that the pace of withdrawals +would be determined, as Gates had sought, by conditions on the ground. Obama said he would conduct a thorough +review of progress in a year's time. Although he did not endorse McChrystal's request to increase the Afghan security +forces to 400,000, he said he would reevaluate the issue once the 2010 goal of training 230,000 forces is achieved. +The president avoided details in his Dec. 1 address, leaving it up to members of his Cabinet and to his advisers to explain +the specifics. The result has been a wide divergence of expectations. Gates, appearing on NBC's ""Meet the Press"" the +Sunday after the speech, said that perhaps only ""some handful or some small number"" would be withdrawn.

Britain and Europe are riveted by Chilcot, especially official circles. The +objective correlative, of course, is trust in any 11.S. administration and deep skepticism about the Afghanistan +project. Yet another undercurrent among the mandarins is disdainful resentment of indifference to Britain, a +sentiment beyond Labour or the Tories but what has emerged as the view of the permanent establishment at +Whitehall and elsewhere. +Mandelson Watch: After Miliband declined to reach for the EU foreign secretaryship (though Sarkozy wanted +him to take it and Brown was not averse, even favorable), Mandelson personally campaigned on his own for it +among the Europeans. Mandelson was eager to Miliband to take the EU post, allowing Mandelson to be +appointed foreign minister. When Miliband refused, Mandelson's ambition was thwarted, and tried to seize the +EU position for himself, but without any backing in Europe or from Gordon. The Europeans thought him mad. +Suddenly, they recalled his bad or strange behavior as UK commissioner to the EU. When Christine Ashton was +named, Mandelson briefed the press on her lack of credentials, etc. Ashton, as it happens, had worked the press +to try to help Mandelson when he had gotten into the mess that led to his first resignation. Those inside the +government who remember this see it as an illustration of the principle that no good deed goes unpunished. +Mandelson, in a snit, is now not speaking to Gordon as 'though his rejection were Gordon's fault. +One more item: Did you read Jim Hoagland in the Washington Post today? He nails McDonough for trashing +Biden, among other things.

Every year more than +half a million women — nearly all of whom live in developing countries — die of pregnancy-related causes. +Moreover, one in three deaths related to pregnancy and childbirth could be avoided if women who wanted +effective contraception had access to it. +To strengthen our working relationships with partners around the world, as well as our image, the United +States must increase access to family planning. By ensuring that women have increased access to the family +planning they need, our nation is working to make good on its commitment to promote the health of all women +and their families. +An investment in family planning is an investment that reaps significant dividends. By providing education, +counseling and contraceptives to women and couples, we are working to strengthen families worldwide. We +also will help achieve major reductions in infant and maternal mortality, HIV infections and global poverty.

Hunt +Print This Story +Dec. 28 (Bloomberg) -- A year ago, the expectation was that President-elect Barack Obama's economic team would be a +smooth- functioning machine, and the outlook was for turbulence in the national-security arena. +Timothy Geithner, the Treasury-secretary designate, and Lawrence Summers, chosen to head the White House National +Economic Council, were unusually able veterans of Washington and financial crises. They were joined by a star-studded +cast of economic advisers starting with former Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker, perhaps the most respected +financial figure in the world, and prominent academic economists. +By contrast, the national-security advisers featured Senator Hillary Clinton of New York, who Obama upset to win the +nomination and was still surrounded by aides who thought the wrong person won; Defense Secretary Robert Gates, a +holdover from President George W. Bush's administration, and national- security adviser and former North Atlantic Treaty +Organization commander Jim Jones, who barely knew his new boss. +Twelve months later, this conventional wisdom has turned upside down. The foreign-policy team, despite a few glitches, +wins high marks and is beset by less rivalry and rancor than most any administration in memory. The vaunted economic +team is faulted for poor coordination, drawing even the president's ire, and an inability to convey an overarching policy. +Deficit vs. Jobs +Two recent anecdotes illustrate this problem. On Dec. 2, as Obama prepared to give a major economic speech at the +Brookings Institution on Dec. 8 (and a day after his Afghanistan speech at West Point) he met with policy makers. He +heard a familiar reprise of the previous several meetings with budget director Peter Orszag arguing for more emphasis on +reducing the deficit and Council of Economic Advisers chief Christina Romer leading the contingent espousing a greater +short-term stress on jobs. +The president, by his standards, exploded. ""Why are we having this meeting again, the same discussion,"" participants +quoted him as saying. +Several administration insiders, prominent outside Democratic economic advisers and a few Congressional heavyweights, +all worry this is symptomatic of a process that isn't working well. Summers, they argue, is brilliant on policy and ill-suited +for a high-level staff job, which is what the head of the National Economic Council is. +""If you came up with 10 words to describe Larry, coordination and collaboration would not be two,"" says one person +requesting anonymity who has worked with Summers extensively and admires his intellectual force. +Top-Flight Players' +David Axelrod, Obama's top adviser, cautions not to read too much into one meeting. ""When you bring in top-flight +players, strong personalities, there's going to be issues of mediation,"" he says. ""The president wants strong players, he +synthesizes their best thinking, and the product is working."" +Still, others say Summers too often is dismissive of fellow economic advisers, other than Geithner, although begets a +bum rap for supposedly freezing Volcker out of major decisions. The 82-year-old Volcker wants a freewheeling advisory +role. But advisers acknowledge Summers rarely reaches out to include him. Volcker takes a much tougher line than +Summers or Geithner toward Wall Street. +The other problem, an inability to effectively communicate an economic policy, was typified in a Dec. 4 interview with +Geithner, who was asked what is the ""clear, coherent economic message"" of the administration. +'High-Class Education' +He proceeded to talk about ""high-class education"" for children, affordable health care, better incentives for energy and +infrastructure, public-private arrangements and the like. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766956 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766956 Date: 08/31/2015 +There are 15.4 million unemployed Americans and another 11.5 million ""underemployed,"" either having given up looking +and thus not counted in the jobless numbers or involuntarily relegated to part-time work. A laundry list of the Democrats' +agenda is unlikely to prove comforting. +Geithner, who wins praise from Obama and others for his substantive performance after a shaky start and some more +recent cheap political shots, acknowledges that public communications isn't his forte. It isn't Summers' either. And those +who are more effective, including Roemer and fellow Council of Economic Advisers member Austan Goolsbee, +sometimes are cut out of the action. +Loss of Confidence +The result: On the economy, Americans are losing confidence in the president, who gets little credit for policies that +avoided an economic calamity and are starting to tum things around. In a survey by pollster Ann Selzer a few weeks ago +for Bloomberg News, voters by 50 percent to 45 percent disapprove of Obama's performance on the economy; the +numbers were worse on handling the budget deficit and dealing with Wall Street. +The best numbers were in foreign policy, including Afghanistan. The national-security apparatus isn't without problems. +There has been periodic sniping at Jones, and top deputies have different perspectives. The deputy director, Tom +Donilon, a well-regarded political operative, is seen as an extension of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel; and +top aide Denis McDonough, is the keeper of the Obama campaign flame. +Still, on the big stuff, especially the decision to escalate the war in Afghanistan, Obama has been well-served by his +national-security team. +Biden's Role +Clinton has been a loyal and effective secretary of state and Gates has earned great respect from his commander in chief. +There's almost none of the bitter infighting like that between Secretary of State Colin Powell and Defense Secretary +Donald Rumsfeld in the Bush administration, or George Shultz and Caspar Weinberger in the Reagan years, or the +incompetence that marked President Bill Clinton's first term. These tensions have been eased in the Obama +administration by the constructive role played by Vice President Joseph Biden on foreign affairs. +If the war in Afghanistan goes south this could change. But the framework for handling tough situations has been set. +That isn't true with the economy. Inexplicably, Emanuel, a man with little tolerance for disarray, seems to have stayed on +the sidelines here. +In an election year, with the dueling dilemmas of huge deficits and high unemployment, the president can't regain +credibility if saddled with a decision-making process that doesn't work effectively and a message that lacks coherence and +clarity. +(Albert R.

But they do not rise to the top of their trade +without also knowing how to stick in the knife. +At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, which opened last week, resembled a +gentlemen's club moved to the sanitised surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in +Westminster. +Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establiShment politely questioned other Oxbridge-educated pillars of the +establishment about who said what to whom in which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and +the new, the open and closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the +world. +Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another +Whitehall whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is +written it will not seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, +in as much as it knows how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up +frustrations of diplomats and career civil servants over the way Cony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted to +oust Sad.dam Hussein, bypassing the ""official channels"" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. +Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden +themselves — finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation +has been sliced like salami day after day. +Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday +that the threat from Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. +In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. ""We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical +weapons might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a +suggestion that Iraq might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."" +Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference +to the case for war. ""I don't think it invalidated the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use,"" +he said. But he had set the tone. +On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already +criticised the government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war +leader to those of Margaret Thatcher. ""I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite +often I think about this: what would Margaret Thatcher have done?"" Meyer asked. ""I think she would have +insisted on a coherent political and diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about +what the heck happened if. and when, you removed Saddam Hussein."" +A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he +said Blair had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. ""We could have achieved +more by playing a tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but +I have to say, in all honesty, that I will not be able to take part in any military operation unless we have palpable +progress on the [Middle East] peace process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes +up.' I think that would have changed the nature — it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the +nature of American planning. "" +Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with +Washington's, Meyer added: ""I wouldn't say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that."" +On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had +threatened to resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: ""I regard our +participation in the military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766964 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766964 Date: 07/31/2015 +not have the democratically observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of +the majority of people inside the UK."" +Today new arguments are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive +documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, +during the lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, +unless all such. material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the +facts will remain. +But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing +testimony could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy adviser, is certain to be +asked about his authorship of a memo which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and +Blair in January 2003. According to reports, the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, +recorded the White House meeting on 31 January which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to +carry out an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass destruction were discovered by UN weapons +inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that Blair made to parliament afterwards that +Saddam would be given a final chance to disarm. +The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly +low over Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent +invasion by America and Britain. +Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to +say more than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or +deny Meyer's evidence that Meyer received ""new instructions"" in early 2005 indicating that it was a ""complete +waste of time"" to oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. +On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter +Ricketts, the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful +joint intelligence committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew +even before Blish came to office in 2001 that there were ""voices"" in Washington calling for Saddam to be +removed from power. Ricketts also told the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from +regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush that he would support military action ""to bring about +regime change"". +According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as ""scrambling to establish a +link between Iraq and al-Qaida"" — a connection that was ""so far, frankly unconvincing"". On Thursday, Sir Kevin +Tebbit, the Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about +the military planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass +resources for the war and what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could +also be urged to divulge the level of intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or +biological weapons. +After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence +staff, Admiral the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, +Lieutenant General Sir Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David +Wilson, senior British military adviser to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be +questioned about military planning for the conflict. +The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and +2007, who will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. +When Chilcot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including +Jack Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine +the highly controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of +the whole inquiry — in January. +In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to +attribute blame. But after only one week it is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. +The Washington Post +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766964 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3885,C05766965,STATE.GOV AND REDESIGN RESULTS,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-02-03T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0062/DOC_0C05766965/C05766965.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: State.gov and Redesign Results,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Ross, Alec J; DiMartino, Kitty; Chitre, Nanda S; Toiv, Nora F","Wednesday, February 3, 2010 6:07 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766965,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,FYI,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766965 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Wednesday, February 3, 2010 6:07 PM +To: +Subject: FW: State.gov and Redesign Results +FYI +From: Dowd, Katie W +Sent: Wednesday, February 03, 2010 5:41 PM +To: Mills, Cheryl D; Crowley, Philip J; McHale, Judith A +Cc: Ross, Alec J; DiMartino, Kitty; Chitre, Nanda S; Toiv, Nora F +Subject: State.gov and Redesign Results +Cheryl, Judith and Pi, +Wanted to give you a brief update on the initial results of the redesign.

But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech +for the only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel +about Afghanistan. Which is: steamed. +I want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. +First, to let those know-it-alls, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one more thing: This is the last big +troop increase you get, so make it work. +I am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency. This is not July 1965. +when. Westmoreland jumped the shark of escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. +For all the trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the shadowboxing that +dominated my long war council meetings. +Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to be characterized in the media as +being ready to bug out now. This helped us push back against McChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 +additional U.S. soldiers. +Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just +saying I should promote Denis? Maybe it was Denis? +Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number of say, 23,000 new combat +troops, 5,000 additional trainers and a ""NATO surge"" of 5,000 foreign troops. +That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech without losing the left of the Democratic +Party -- while being able to refute John McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. +Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all credibility, and David Petraeus's +performance was dazzling. Which presents two big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could get the +Republican nomination in 2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think ahead.) +And if the generals box me in, civilian control of the military in this country becomes a mockery. Clinton was +afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to it. I've got to Bret the right balance back. +That's why I need Bob Gates and. Jim Jones. Those who scoffed at my keeping on Bush's defense secretary, and +then making a retired Marine four-star I hardly knew my NSC guy, were not thinking that moments like this +would come. I already was. +Gates has maneuvered flawlessly through my waterboarding-by-leaks on Afghanistan. He will sell my final +number to the uniforms as the ""floor"" for U.S. troops that Petraeus argues we need for three years. But Gates +knows I will make it a ceiling. +We can't afford an open-ended commitment. I put Peter Orszag, as good a budget overseer as you can find, front +and center for the photographers in that last war council. Many missed it, but NBC's Andrea Mitchell got it right +away. No wonder she's married to Alan Greenspan. +I will bet that Stan McChrystal never drew up a budget in his life. +Jones tells me these Special Operations commanders are used to getting whatever they ask for, especially since +September 11th. Nobody on the Hill will deny them anything. +Jones is also squeezing the Europeans to join the battle and is getting results, even from the Germans. What is it +Jones says? Maybe the worst thing of all would be to be perceived to lose in Afghanistan and then have the +Europeans say: Well, you never asked for more help at the crucial time. Makes sense to me. +We have sent NATO members the numbers we think they can and should provide, country by country. That +new secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, is pulling out the stops, visiting the capitals to get +commitments. +""Say it now, pay it later,"" we tell the Europeans. They have until mid-2010 to deploy their new units. But I need +pledges now so I can get across tonight that this is NATO's war, not Obama's war. That's unspoken-goal number +three. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766968 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766968 Date: 07/31/2015 +So I have frontloaded the speech with allusions to this being about an exit strategy, without boxing myself in on +timing, and am presenting the ""civilian surge"" as being as essential as the troop buildup. That helps set up my +Oslo speech. And who knows? It may even work out that way.

Britain and Europe are riveted by Chilcot, especially official circles. The objective correlative, of +course, is trust in any U.S. administration and deep skepticism about the Afghanistan project. Yet another undercurrent +among the mandarins is disdainful resentment of indifference to Britain, a sentiment beyond Labour or the Tories but +what has emerged as the view of the permanent establishment at Whitehall and elsewhere. +Mendelson Watch: After Miliband declined to reach for the EU foreign secretaryship (though Sarkozy wanted him to +take it and Brown was not averse, even favorable), Mendelson personally campaigned on his own for it among the +Europeans.

When Miliband refused, Mandelson's ambition was thwarted, and tried to seize the EU position for himself, +but without any backing in Europe or from Gordon. The Europeans thought him mad. Suddenly, they recalled his bad or +strange behavior as UK commissioner to the EU. When Christine Ashton was named, Mendelson briefed the press on her +lack of credentials, etc. Ashton, as it happens, had worked the press to try to help Mendelson when he had gotten into +the mess that led to his first resignation. Those inside the government who remember this see it as an illustration of the +principle that no good deed goes unpunished. Mendelson, in a snit, is now not speaking to Gordon as though his +rejection were Gordon's fault. +One more item: Did you read Jim Hoagland in the Washington Post today? He nails McDonough for trashing Biden, +among other things. Enclosed below story on Chilcot: +http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/nov/29/iraq-war-inquiry-chilcot-blair +Chilcot Inquiry: Mandarins take revenge on Tony Blair over Iraq Civil servants and diplomats are lining up to stick a knife +into former PM's reputation +* Toby Helm and Rajeev Syal + +* The Observer , Sunday 29 November 2009 +* Whitehall mandarins are supreme masters of subtle evasion. But they do not rise to the top of their trade without +also knowing how to stick in the knife. +At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, which opened last week, resembled a +gentlemen's club moved to the sanitised surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth fl Conference Centre in Westminster. +Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment politely questioned other Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment +about who said what to whom in which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open and +closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the world. +Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another Whitehall +whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will not +seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows +how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and career +civil servants over the way Tony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted +to oust Saddam Hussein; bypassing the ""official channels"" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. +Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden themselves - +finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like +salami day after day. +Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday that the +threat from Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. +In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. ""We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical weapons +might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq +might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."" +Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference to the +case for war. ""I don't think it invalidated the point about the programMes he had. It was more about use,"" he said. But +he had set the tone. +On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already criticised the +government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of +Margaret Thatcher. ""I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite often I think about this: +what would Margaret Thatcher have done?"" Meyer asked. ""I think she would have insisted on a coherent political and +diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you +removed Saddam Hussein."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766974 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766974 Date: 07/31/2015 +A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair +had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. ""We could have achieved more by playing a +tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, +that I will not be able to take part in any military operation unless we have palpable progress on the [Middle East] peace +process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature +— it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the nature of American planning. "" +Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with +Washington's, Meyer added: ""I wouldn't say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that."" +On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to +resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: ""I regard our participation in the +military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically +observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the majority of people inside the +UK."" +Today new arguments are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive +documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the +lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, unless all such +material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. +But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing testimony +could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy + adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo +which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. According to reports, +the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January +which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to carry cut an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass +destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that +Blair made to parliament afterwards that Saddam would be given a final chance to disarm. +The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly low over +Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America +and Britain. +Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more +than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's +evidence that Meyer received ""new instructions"" in early 2005 indicating that it was a ""complete waste of time"" to +oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. +On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, +the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence +committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to +office in 2001 that there were ""voices"" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told +the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush +that he would support military action ""to bring about regime change"". +According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as ""scrambling to establish a link +between Iraq and al-Qaida"" — a connection that was ""so far, frankly unconvincing"". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the +Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during, the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military +planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and +what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of +intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons. +After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral +the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General Sir +Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser +to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the +conflict. +The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who +will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. +When Chilcot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including Jack +Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the highly +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766974 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766974 Date: 07/31/2015 +controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry — in +January. +In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute +blame. But after only one week it is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. +The Washington Post +Afghanistan: The speech you'll miss +By Jim Hoagland +Sunday, November 29, 2009 +Dec. 1, 2009: +My fellow Americans, +This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech for the +only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. +Which is: steamed. +I want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. +First, to let those know-it-alls, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one more thing: This is the last big troop +increase you get, so make it work. +I am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency. This is not July 1965, when +Westmoreland jumped the shark of escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. For all the +trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the shadowboxing that dominated my long war +council meetings. +Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to be characterized in the media as being +ready to bug out now. This helped us push back against McChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 additional U.S. +soldiers. +Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just saying I +should promote Denis? Maybe it was Denis? +Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number of, say, 23,000 new combat troops, +5,000 additional trainers and a ""NATO surge"" of 5,000 foreign troops. +That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech without losing the left of the Democratic Party -- +while being able to refute John McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. +Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all credibility, and David Petraeus's performance +was dazzling. Which presents two big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could get the Republican nomination in +2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think ahead.) And if the generals box me in, civilian control of the +military in this country becomes a mockery. Clinton was afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to it. I've got to get +the right balance back. +That's why I need Bob Gates and Jim Jones. Those who scoffed at my keeping on Bush's defense secretary, and then +making a retired Marine four-star I hardly knew my NSC guy, were not thinking that moments like this would come. I +already was. +Gates has maneuvered flawlessly through my waterboarding-by-leaks on Afghanistan. He will sell my final number to the +uniforms as the ""floor"" for U.S. troops that Petraeus argues we need for three years. But Gates knows I will make it a +ceiiing. +We can't afford an open-ended commitment. I put Peter Orszag, as good a budget overseer as you can find, front and +center for the photographers in that last war council. Many missed it, but NBC's Andrea Mitchell got it right away. No +wonder she's married to Alan Greenspan. +I will bet that Stan McChrystal never drew up a budget in his life. +Jones tells me these Special Operations commanders are used to getting whatever they ask for, especially since +September 11th. Nobody on the Hill will deny them anything. +Jones is also squeezing the Europeans to join the battle and is getting results, even from the Germans. What is it Jones +says? Maybe the worst thing of all would be to be perceived to lose in Afghanistan and then have the Europeans say: +Well, you never asked for more help at the crucial time. Makes sense to me. +We have sent NATO members the numbers we think they can and should provide, country by country. That new +secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, is pulling out the stops, visiting the capitals to get commitments. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766974 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766974 Date: 07/31/2015 +""Say it now, pay it later,"" we tell the Europeans. They have until mid-2010 to deploy their new units. But I need pledges +now so I can get across tonight that this is NATO's war, not Obama's war. That's unspoken-goal number three. +So I have frontloaded the speech with allusions to this being about an exit strategy, without boxing myself in on timing, +and am presenting the ""civilian surge"" as being as essential as the troop buildup. That helps set up my Oslo speech. And +who knows? It may even work out that way. If God blesses us all. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766974 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3893,C05766977,FW:,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-01-17T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0058/DOC_0C05766977/C05766977.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Sunday, January 17, 2010 10:20 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766977,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,See final b/I -,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766977 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B5 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sunday, January 17, 2010 10:20 PM +To: H +Subject Fw: +See final b/I - +Original Message +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sun Jan 17 21:45:46 2010 +JOINT COMMUNIQUÉ OF +THE GOVERNMENTS OF HAITI AND THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ISSUED AT PORT-AU-PRINCE, HAITI JANUARY 17, +2010 +President Rene Preval of Haiti and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton of the United States of America met in Port- +au-Prince in the wake of the catastrophic earthquake of January 12, 2010 and its tragic aftermath, and issued the +following joint communiqué: +Recognizing: +the long history of friendship between the people of Haiti and the people of the United States and their mutual respect +for each other's sovereignty; +the grievous suffering of the people of Haiti, including the massive loss of life, widespread injuries, and extensive +damage to public infrastructure and private property; +the urgent need for an immediate response to the requests by the Government of Haiti and the paramount importance +of safe, swift and effective implementation of rescue, relief, recovery, and reconstruction efforts; +the current, unprecedented challenges facing the Haitian Government; and +the January 15, 2010 conversation between President Obama and President Preval underscoring the urgency of the +needs of Haiti and its people, President Obama's pledge of the full support of the American people for the Government +and people of Haiti in relation to both the immediate recovery effort and the long-term rebuilding effort, and the two +Presidents' commitment to coordinate assistance among the various parties, including the Haitian Government, the +United Nations, the United States and the many international partners and organizations on the ground; +President Preval, on behalf of the Government and people of Haiti, welcomes as essential the efforts in Haiti by the +Government and people of the United States to support the immediate recovery, stability and long-term rebuilding of +Haiti and requests the United States to assist as needed in augmenting security in support of the Government and +people of Haiti and the United Nations, international partners and organizations on the ground; +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766977 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766977 Date: 08/31/2015 +Secretary Clinton, on behalf of the Government and people of the United States, reaffirms the intention of the United +States, through its assistance, to stand by the Haitian people in this time of great tragedy; and +President Preval and Secretary Clinton jointly reaffirm that the Governments of Haiti and the United States will continue +to cooperate under this shared understanding to promote the most safe and effective rescue, relief, recovery and +reconstruction efforts possible. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05766977 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3894,C05766978,YEAR END REPORT,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2009-12-29T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05766978/C05766978.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,RE: Year end report,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Tuesday, December 29, 2009 1:23 PM",F-2014-20439,C05766978,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Yep.

Some activists say their patience is wearing +thin. +""I feel they are stringing us along, and we are in an awkward position,"" said Randolph McGrorty, head of Catholic +Charities Legal Services, who brought the subject to a head with a stinging e-mail sent to House, Senate and +administration staffers last week. ""Do we allow them to string us along because they are our allies or do we start +calling them on the carpet for it?"" +The unrest comes as Obama plans a trip to Miami on Monday to raise money for House and Senate Democrats. +Presidential candidate Obama did not promise to grant undocumented Haitian immigrants temporary legal status in +the United States -- a designation known as Temporary Protected Status, or TPS -- but activists said they believed +the first African-American president would give the issue special consideration. +Instead, former President Bill Clinton -- a United Nations special envoy to the country -- and the United Nations have +taken the lead in rebuilding a storm-battered Haiti after last year's four back-to-back storms that killed hundreds and +left nearly $1 billion in damages. +CHALLENGE +The issue of TPS poses a challenge for Rep. Kendrick Meek, a Miami Democrat who is depending on a robust +tumout in the politically active Haitian-American community to boost his Senate bid. But critics say South Florida's +congressional Democrats, including Meek, have not been as vocal about pushing the Obama administration on Haiti +as they were during the Bush administration. +Meek, who represents the largest group of Haitian-American voters in the United States, said Friday he's had +meetings with the administration and is optimistic that it is taking a serious look at the policy. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767000 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767000 Date: 07/31/2015 +It may not come as soon as we want to, but I can tell you the Obama administration has made steps the Bush +administration wouldn't have made in 100 years,"" Meek said, noting that the administration has temporarily stayed +deportations of noncriminals to Haiti. ""The ultimate goal is to have Haiti in a position where Haitians can stay in +Haiti and not take to the sea."" +Still, Broward Democrat Rep. Alcee Hastings chastised the administration last week, looking to prod it by attaching +an amendment to a Coast Guard spending bill that would require the agency to review the effect of changing +immigration policy toward Haiti. Critics have suggested TPS could lead Haitians to rush to the U.S. shore. +""Temporary Protected Status or some other comparable relief for our Haitian neighbors is long overdue and this +administration has been stalling for far too long,"" Hastings said in support of his amendment. +He said the review would ""hopefully help us show that our government has rationally and realistically examined all +possible scenarios and we are well-equipped to contend with any possible effects."" +U.S. POLICY +When Obama brought up the issue in July, he said the administration is reviewing U.S. policy on deporting +undocumented Haitians, suggesting that the issue would be ""part of a broader conversation about immigration."" +But immigration groups say the pace on overhauling the nation's immigration system is too slow and fear no +progress next year during a volatile election. +The White House this week referred questions on TPS to the Department of Homeland Security, which said it had +made no changes in policy, adding that, ""no one should attempt to come to the U.S. in the hopes of being granted +TPS. +Advocates for Haitian Americans, including Cheryl Little, executive director of the Florida Immigrant Advocacy +Center, said they've written a number of letters and e-mails to the administration seeking a response to their request +for TPS -- and in recent months have offered less-sweeping alternatives to TPS to help the estimated 35,000 +undocumented Haitians currently living in legal limbo. +""Washington needs to know we are not going to fade into the woodwork,"" Little said. ""We are going to continue to +make the case for TPS and be critical of this administration when they don't do the right thing."" +ADVOCATE +Earlier this month, Little appealed to former President Clinton who, during two appearances in Miami recently, spoke +of his support for TPS. He said if the decision was up to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, ""it would have been +done. Hillary strongly supports this."" +A spokesman for the State Department declined to comment on Clinton's remarks, saying they were the former +president's ""personal comments"" and it would be ""inappropriate for us to make any official declarations on the +issue"" since the decisions are being made by Homeland Security. +Advocates acknowledge the administration has quietly made some changes. It has temporarily suspended the +deportation of noncriminal, undocumented Haitians. Undocumented Haitians with no criminal records who are +detained by immigration authorities are being released from detention centers as long as they agree to a final order +of removal. +Once released, they can apply for work permits but must periodically check in with immigration authorities until they +are eventually deported. +'BABY STEPS' +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767000 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767000 Date: 07/31/2015 +But critics dismiss the changes as ""baby steps,"" noting that by not granting undetained migrants a chance to apply +for work permits, they're unable to support themselves or assist struggling families back home. An impoverished +Haiti is dependent on remittances from abroad. +""That is not nearly enough,"" Little said. ""That is not even a half-hearted attempt at doing the right thing here."" +The Haitian-American Grassroots Coalition met Wednesday to discuss the issue and plans to protest at Obama's +fundraiser in Miami on Monday. Haitian activists protested outside the White House last month. +""As far as we are concerned, regarding Haiti, the Obama administration is maintaining the same status quo as the +Bush immigration policy,"" said Jean-Robert Lafortune, the coalition's president. +Caitlin Klevorick +Office of the Counselor +Department of State +KlevorickCB@state.gov +202.647.6115 +(blackberry) +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767000 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +3904,C05767003,RE:,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-01-17T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0058/DOC_0C05767003/C05767003.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re:,H,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Sunday, January 17, 2010 10:45 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767003,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Y,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767003 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B5 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sunday, January 17, 2010 10:45 PM +To: H +Subject: Re: +Y +Original Message ---- +From: H +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sun Jan 17 22:28:22 2010 +Subject: Re: +Ok.

""They're definitely paying attention and, at the very +least, trying to intimidate people."" +And retaliation has been brutal — both for those taking to the streets and those spreading the word online. +One of the most compelling videos to emerge from the recent unrest showed what the people who posted it said was an Iranian +government vehicle plowing into a crowd of protesters, apparently running over and, they say, killing a woman. +Abbas Jafari Dolatabadi, Tehran's chief prosecutor, said Tuesday that seven people were killed in the Ashura riots. The +demonstrations were the deadliest since June. Those left at least eight dead, according to Iran's Supreme National Security +Council — although dissidents and observers have said there were many more. +The world was able to learn about those protests through first-person accounts online after a disputed election that returned +hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to office despite serious questions about polling results. +As protests swelled, Iran's government began kicking out some reporters from some traditional Western media outlets, arresting +others and restricting the movements of those who remained. +In their place sprung citizen journalists who posted videos, photos and firsthand accounts on Twitter feeds, Facebook groups +and sites like Flickr and YouTube. They kept images of the protests -- and the sometimes bloody response of government +backers — in front of the world. +As early as election day, both opposition political leaders and anti-government protesters said cell-phone signals were being +jammed. They consistently reported networking Web sites in Iran being blocked, phone lines disconnected and protest sites +allegedly infiltrated by government spies who spread misinformation and sought the identities of those speaking against the +regime. +That experience, observers say, had the government primed for the most recent explosion of information. +""The spike at the beginning, right after the election, was pretty chaotic,""said Austin Heap, a San Francisco-based Web +developer who has helped Iranian dissidents report from within their country. ""Not even their government knew what they were +going to do and how they were going to handle things. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767047 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767047 Date: 08/31/2015 +""I think right now what you're seeing is a much more coordinated and organized response from them."" +Tech experts say the Iranian government has become more adept at using a type of Internet filtering called deep-packet +inspection to track information sent from one Internet user to another and hunt down the sender. +The government has also begun using the protest's own techniques against it. As early as June, online activists said they +suspected government agents of posing as protesters in an attempt to pry information out of people within the movement. Some +Twitter feeds of protesters suddenly and inexplicably began posting pro-government messages or asking for details about where +and when protests would be held. +Earlier this month, videos that appeared to show protesters burning an image of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei +circulated the Internet. Opposition leaders denied the burnings ever happened and said they were a hoax carried out by the +government to discredit them and turn the Iranian public against their cause. +""Fake clips, usually made to provoke and split the opposition, are becoming a staple of the Iranian Internet,"" Evgeny Morozov, +who writes about the Internet for Foreign Policy magazine, wrote in a commentary for CNN. +Austin Heap has helped set up and verify reliable proxies by which Iranians can post news to the Web without giving away their +locations. He's also helping develop a program called Haystack designed to help Iranians anonymously elude government filters. +'We definitely have been working on overload for the past three days,"" he said Tuesday. ""I woke up two days ago to 60 e-mails +and 12 missed phone calls — all people that, all of a sudden, needed an immediate response."" +The continued media blackout in Iran had made it difficult for traditional media to immediately verify Sunday's accounts of the +weekend's violence. But videos that surfaced depicted bloodied and, in some cases, apparently dead protesters. +A range of Web sites have either emerged or seen renewed interest in light of the recent protests. They run the gamut from +YouTube accounts dedicated to images from street protests to blogs mocking the Iranian regime. +At the blog Watch Me Confess, opponents of Iran's government post faux apologies for what they call ridiculous claims the +government has made about the protesters. +At Neda Net -- named for the young woman whose shooting death in June became a rallying cry for protesters -- people who +call themselves a network of hackers offer tips on how to help Iranians use the Internet freely +""There's this kind of global attention being paid across different countries and cultures and languages,"" said Farivar, who noted +the emergence of a Twitter hashtag — #CN4Iran -- THAT appears to have been started by Chinese supporters of the Iranian +protesters. +Despite their best efforts and good intentions, supporters outside the country won't decide the outcome of the most recent round +of protests, Farivar said. The actions of Iranians on the ground will. +""I think it's naive to think that just because you're changing your location to Tehran [on a Twitter profile] that you're confusing the +Iranian authorities,"" he said. ""That would make them seem less intelligent than they are."" +But Heap said the steady flow of information will be important as a government that prefers secrecy continues a violent +crackdown on its citizens. +""They can't hide any more,"" he said. 'The government has done everything they can to shut people up, and every time they do +this they're just making more and more activists -- more and more citizen journalists."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767047 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3915,C05767048,CLINTON EDGES PALIN FOR MOST ADMIRED,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-12-30T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05767048/C05767048.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: Clinton edges Palin for most admired,,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Wednesday, December 30, 2009 3:19 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767048,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767048 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Wednesday, December 30, 2009 3:19 PM +To: +Subject: FW: Clinton edges Palin for most admired +From: Toiv, Nora F +Sent: Wednesday, December 30, 2009 11:58 AM +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Subject: Clinton edges Palin for most admired +POLITICO +Clinton edges Palin for most admired +By: Andy Barr +December 30, 2009 08:48 AM EST +Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is the most admired woman in America, barely edging +out former Alaska Gov.

But in fact change is a constant in Saudi Arabia. Most of it comes from the top +down. +Not all Saudis are happy with the status quo. Some are angry about the extent to which the Kingdom is opening +up and reforming. Others are impatient to get on with reform. The ranks of the latter clearly include King +Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al-Sa'ud, the current ruler. Now in his late eighties and on the throne only since 2005, +he has surprised everyone with the vigor of his efforts to modernize Saudi society and to reshape its +relationships with the world beyond its borders. Saudi Arabia has plenty of problems to keep the king engaged. +A lot of issues derive from the peculiar religious heritage of the Saudi state, The current Kingdom of Saudi +Arabia (now over a century old) is the third political structure to ally the House of Sa'ud with the family of the +eighteenth century religious reformer Shaykh al Islam Mohammed ibn 'Abd al-Wahhab Al-Tanaimi. Ibn 'Abd +al-Wahhab's writings form the doctrinal basis of so-called Wahliabis-m, a notoriously intolerant and socially +conservative form of Islam -that is often confused with other reactionary religious traditions like that of the +Taliban. Saudi history has Mvolved a sustained efibrt by the Kingdom's rulers to persuade us religious scholars +and their puritanical followers to embrace change and to open up to the outside world. This struggle has mainly +been peaceful and virtually invisible to outsiders. Sometimes, however, it has engendered violence. In 1975, +for example, .the late King Faisal paid with his life for instituting public education for 2fris and for introducing +television to his nation. +Both as -regent (from 1996 to 2005) and more recently as ruler, King Abdullah has been so careful to avoid +drama in his promotion of change that it is truly startling to review the cumulative results of his +leadership. Take women's issues, for example. In 2002, responsibility for girls' education was transferred from +the religious authorities to the ministry of education. Women now make up 58 percent of the enrollment in +Saudi universities. The new Princess Noun ii 'Pint Abduirahmari University for Women, currently Wider +construction in Riyadh, will enroll 40,000 students this fall. +Female participation in the labor force is rising rapidly. Twenty-nine percent of women now work outside the +home. (That is a low figure compared to our own but represents a remarkable advance for the Kingdom.) One- +-third of civil service positions have !peen reserved -for women. The first woman took her seat i.n the Co modof +Ministers hist year. After a bit cilia kerfuffie, the .I',.iingdom's religious scholars ifinally endorsed coeducation at +the new King Abdullah Univershv for Science and Technology. That was big blow to the 'legitimacy of gender +apartheid. A Saudi friend and I are betting that it will not be long before women in the Kingdom can drive. We +plan to clean up by building the separate road system tins may require. (That's a joke, I hope,) +A word about the vision embodied in the King Abdullah University for Science and Technology. Founded by +the king last Septernber with an initial endowment of ten billion dollars. KAUST is an international, graduate- +level research university. It sits in a two-billion-dollar campus on the Red Sea about seventy-five miles +northwest of Mecca. On one level, it is the leading element in an effort to prepare the Kingdom for a +knowledge-based economy that can complement and eventually supercede the current reliance on energy +exports. But on another level, it is a powerful answer to the religious zealotry that terrorist movements like al +Qa'ida espouse. Let me explain. +There is a broad consensus among the world's 1.6 billion Muslims that the modern age is ethically corrupt and +that religious faith needs reinvigoration and renewal. Much like early Christian Protestants, many believe that +the way to achieve this is to rediscover and reaffirm the values of their religion's earliest times. When he +inaugurated KAUST, King Abdullah explained that he envisaged it as a reborn Bayt al-Hikma or ""House of +Wisdom."" The original ""House of Wisdom"" was founded in Baghdad around 760 CE., in the second century of +the Muslim era. It was where the Arabs incorporated Greek, Indian and other foreign knowledge into Islam and +conceived much of modern mathematics, astronomy, medicine, chemistry, zoology, and geography. It made +Islamic civilization the global leader in science and technology. The ""House of Wisdom"" prospered in an age +of tolerance, when Jews and Christians served alongside Muslims as ministers of government. Though +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767140 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767140 Date: 08/31/2015 +destroyed by the Mongols in 1258, the knowledge it preserved and developed eventually found its way to +Europe, where it sparked the Renaissance. +Today, like mainstream Muslims, the extremists of al Qa'ida and related movements argue that Islam must +return to its roots. But they portray early Islam as puritanical, xenophobic, intolerant, and oppressive of +women.. KAUST is a living rebuttal of this historical fallacy and the ideology of hatred derived from it. It was +conceived as a new ""House of Wisdom."" It stands for the principle that Islam was founded as and can only be +reborn as the religious guide to a society open to ideas from other traditions. It represents a call for return to an +Islam tolerant of foreign ways, respectful of women, dedicated to the scientific study of God's handiwork, and +committed to the development of new technologies to better the human condition. KAUST is as much an +instrument of religious renaissance and an answer to extremism as it is an academic institution. +This brings me to the issue of religious tolerance. In 2003, King Abdullah inaugurated what he called a +""national forum for intellectual dialogue."" This ongoing national dialogue is an unprecedented acceptance of +religious diversity in the Kingdom. It marks an end to longstanding official discrimination against its Shiite +minority. In 2007, King Abdullah made an historic call on the Pope in the Vatican, the first time a Muslim +leader of his stature had done so. In 2008 he organized two unprecedented international interfaith conferences +between Muslims, Jews, Christians. Buddhists, and others at Madrid and New York. He intends this dialogue, +too, to be a continuing process. +There are other major domestic reform initiatives in progress, like a complete revamping of the Saudi +educational system and curriculum, experiments with elections at lower levels of government and civil society, +efforts to shift the Kingdom toward reliance on alternative sources of energy, the development of a huge new +petrochemical industry to complement the production of energy in its primary form. Time will not permit me to +describe these developments. My point is simply that there is a great deal more going on in Saudi Arabia than +our press and pundits seem to realize. +That said, everything is, of course, relative. Sadly, to many Saudis, the history of their nation suggests that the +more religiously uptight they are, the more oil comes out of the ground. The Kingdom continues in many ways +to belie God's admonition in the Holy ()limn that ""there can be no compulsion in religion."" The open practice +of religions other than Islam remains banned. The status and role of wonien in &tudi society is controversial +and far from settled. Despite efforts at ""Saudiization,"" foreign workers continue to dominate the employment +market, while demanding a premium to compensate for the discomfort and stress that Saudi Arabia's religiously +sanctioned mores impose on them. Methods of political consultation that worked in a more cohesive and less +populous Saudi Arabia can no longer produce consensus. The fiscal basis of the state continues to be oil +exports, and oil is a commodity whose price fluctuates unpredictably. There is, in other words, a very long list +of problems for Saudis to work out in coming years. +Let me turn briefly to Saudi Arabia's foreign relations before reviewing the state of our country's interaction +with it. +In foreign even more than domestic affairs, King Abdullah's impact has been little short of revolutionary. He +has overseen the negotiated settlement of the Kingdom's long-disputed borders with all of its neighbors. He +brought Saudi Arabia into the World Trade Organization, ensuring that its trade arid investment activities for the +first time follow internationally agreed rules. In 1982, at Beirut, he led the Arab League in an historic reversal. +of policy toward the Israel-Palestine issue. Saudi Arabia had long insisted that it would be the last state in the +region to recognize and establish relations with Israel. At Beirut, King Abdullah committed to be the first to +normalize relations with Israel upon its achievement of a mutually acceptable arrangement for coexistence with +the Palestinians. He persuaded all other Arab countries to promise they would do the same. To his great +frustration. Israel did not respond. Since then, hope for a two-state solution that could gain acceptance for Israel +in the region has dimmed. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767140 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767140 Date: 08/31/2015 +Many of Saudi Arabia's foreign policy challenges stem from recent American policies in the region. These +policies have had the effect of liberating Israel from all constraints on its settlement activities and belligerent +intervention in its Arab neighbors, installing Iran as the dominant political influence in both Iraq and Lebanon, +consolidating rather than eroding the Syrian-Iranian alliance, pushing Hama.s into the arms of the Iranians, and +raising regional tensions over Tehran's nuclear program while doing nothing effective about it. Then there is +Afghanistan, where the United States now seems to be engaged in a crusade against militant Islam — one that +many in the region now fear may soon extend to Yemen. Saudi counter-terrorism specialists, Who have a well- +deserved international reputation for effectiveness, are convinced that the most efficient way to radicalize +Muslim populations and encourage terrorism against the United States and its foreign policy partners is to +invade, occupy, and humiliate them. They believe that the panick.ed militarism of the U.S. response to 9/11 was +exactly what groups like al Qa'ida, hoped for. They see no sign that the United States is about to abandon +actions and policies that metastasize extremism and stimulate terrorist reprisal against Americans and our +foreign friends. +No longer willing to be publicly associated with U.S. policies in the Holy Land, Iraq, Afghanistan, and +elsewhere that radicalize the region and menace the Kingdom's own security, Saudi Arabia is actively +attempting to reduce its historic dependence on America. To this end, it is building new relationships with +countries like China, India, and. Russia, while strengthening cooperation with longstanding partners in Europe +and Asia like Britain, France, Germany, japan, and south Korea. It is not that the Kingdom has given up on the +United States. As the king's scholarship program for Saudi students in this country evidences., Saudi Arabia +continues to reach out and seek improved relations with America. But Saudis no longer trust us to take their +interests into account or to protect them from their enemies. +In December 2002, as the U.S. prepared to invade Iraq against the forcefully expressed advice of then Crown +Prince Abdullab, Saudi Aramco (the world's largest oil company) quietly abandoned a decades-old subsidy for +the cost of shipping oil to the North American market. Within months, China replaced the United States as the +Kingdom's biggest overseas market for oil. U.S. exports have remained relatively constant as the Saudi +Arabian economy has boomed, dramatically' reducing our market share in our largest Middle Eastern +market. Ironically, the best element of the US-Saudi relationship is now cooperation against terrorists. This is a +task in which the Saudis have perforce learned to excel. American policies ensure an endless supply of angry +young Muslim men in the region, including in Saudi Arabia. +The United States is now said to have entered a ""long war."" The last time we did so, in 1947 with Soviet +Communism„ the enemy was obvious, George Ketman gave us a strategy, and skillful American diplomacy +gave us the allies we needed to pursue it. Kennan's ""long telegram"" from Moscow outlined a comprehensive +approach to the political, economic, cultural, and military containment of the threat to our survival and our +values posed by the Soviet Union. We followed his outline. Forty years later, as Kerman forecast, without our +having to go to war with the USSR, ohr Soviet enemy collapsed of its own infirmities. +This time, our ""long war"" is with various Islamic extremists, tribes, sects, and societies. Were not quite sure +who our enemy is. No K.ennan has emerged to give us a strategy for winning without fighting or, indeed, any +""strategy"" at all. Instead, we are flailing about with our superbly lethal military in response to events. Lacking +a strategy, we have been unable to recruit foreign partners to support one. We are now alone in Iraq. We are +isolated internationally on the Israel-Palestine issue. Our NATO allies are with us in Afghanistan out of +consideration for NATO, not because they think we know what we are doing. Many of them have already +announced their intention to withdraw-. Pakistan is with us only because all its alternatives are worse. +Saudi Arabia and America head al Qa•ida'S enemies list. The Kingdom has, however, been successfully vilified +in the eyes of the American elite and public. To deal effectively with Islamic extremism, we need Muslim +allies. There is none more potent that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Yet we have made no effort to seek its +advice about how to address the challenges of Islamic extremism. We have not sought its help to legitimize an +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767140 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767140 Date: 08/31/2015 +effective political, informational, cultural, and economic strategy for productive engagement with the Islamic +world. +Meanwhile, however, many things now happening in the Kingdom — like the implicit message of the king's +vision for KAUST — suggest that such a partnership with Saudi Arabia and Arab nations of like mind is +possible. Such a partnership could be the basis for a strategy to bring victory- in this latest ""long war."" The +common interests on which to forge an alliance are clearlY there. Last June in Cairo, President Obama +brilliantly articulated a credible basis for sound relations with the Islamic world. His vision was persuasive, but +it remains a mirage, not a reality. Et is past time to implement it. An intensive effort to reset the relationship +with Saudi Arabia and to craft a common antiterrorist strategy with its king would be a good place to start. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767140 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3949,C05767141,SAUDI ARABIA,Hillary,Sid,194,2010-02-12T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0065/DOC_0C05767141/C05767141.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,Sid,,,F-2014-20439,C05767141,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767141 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN +FULL +CONFIDENTIAL +February 12, 2010 +For: Hillary +From: Sid +Re: Saudi Arabia +I have been in contact with Chas Freeman, former ambassador to Saudi Arabia, and he has sent +me his most recent public speech on the subject.

Founded by the king last September with an initial endowment of ten billion +dollars, KAUST is an international, graduate-level research university. It sits in a two-billion- +dollar campus on the Red Sea about seventy-five miles northwest of Mecca. On one level, it is +the leading element in an effort to prepare the Kingdom for a knowledge-based economy that can +complement and eventually supercede the current reliance on energy exports. But on another +level, it is a powerful answer to the religious zealotry that terrorist movements like al Qa'ida +espouse. Let me explain. +There is a broad consensus among the world's 1.6 billion Muslims that the modern age is +ethically corrupt and that religious faith needs reinvigoration and renewal. Much like early +Christian Protestants, many believe that the way to achieve this is to rediscover and reaffirm the +values of their religion's earliest times. When he inaugurated KAUST, King Abdullah explained +that he envisaged it as a reborn Bayt al-Hikma or ""House of Wisdom."" The original ""House of +Wisdom"" was founded in Baghdad around 760 C.E., in the second century of the Muslim era. It +was where the Arabs incorporated Greek, Indian and other foreign knowledge into Islam and +conceived much of modern mathematics, astronomy, medicine, chemistry, zoology, and +geography. It made Islamic civilization the global leader in science and technology. The +""House of Wisdom"" prospered in an age of tolerance, when Jews and Christians served +alongside Muslims as ministers of government. Though destroyed by the Mongols in 1258, the +knowledge it preserved and developed eventually found its way to Europe, where it sparked the +Renaissance. +Today, like mainstream Muslims, the extremists of al Qa'ida and related movements argue that +Islam must return to its roots. But they portray early Islam as puritanical, xenophobic, intolerant, +and oppressive of women. KAUST is a living rebuttal of this historical fallacy and the ideology +of hatred derived from it. It was conceived as a new ""House of Wisdom."" It stands for the +principle that Islam was founded as and can only be reborn as the religious guide to a society +open to ideas from other traditions. It represents a call for return to an Islam tolerant of foreign +ways, respectful of women, dedicated to the scientific study of God's handiwork, and committed +to the development of new technologies to better the human condition. KAUST is as much an +instrument of religious renaissance and an answer to extremism as it is an academic institution. +This brings me to the issue of religious tolerance. In 2003, King Abdullah inaugurated what he +called a ""national forum for intellectual dialogue."" This ongoing national dialogue is an +unprecedented acceptance of religious diversity in the Kingdom. It marks an end to longstanding +official discrimination against its Shiite minority. In 2007, King Abdullah made an historic call +on the Pope in the Vatican, the first time a Muslim leader of his stature had done so. In 2008 he +organized two unprecedented international interfaith conferences between Muslims, Jews, +Christians, Buddhists, and others at Madrid and New York. He intends this dialogue, too, to be a +continuing process. +There are other major domestic reform initiatives in progress, like a complete revamping of the +Saudi educational system and curriculum, experiments with elections at lower levels of +government and civil society, efforts to shift the Kingdom toward reliance on alternative sources +of energy, the development of a huge new petrochemical industry to complement the production +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767141 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767141 Date: 08/31/2015 +of energy in its primary form. Time will not permit me to describe these developments. My +point is simply that there is a great deal more going on in Saudi Arabia than our press and +pundits seem to realize. +That said, everything is, of course, relative. Sadly, to many Saudis, the history of their nation +suggests that the more religiously uptight they are, the more oil comes out of the ground. The +Kingdom continues in many ways to belie God's admonition in the Holy Quran that ""there can +be no compulsion in religion."" The open practice of religions other than Islam remains banned. +The status and role of women in Saudi society is controversial and far from settled. Despite +efforts at ""Saudiization,"" foreign workers continue to dominate the employment market, while +demanding a premium to compensate for the discomfort and stress that Saudi Arabia's +religiously sanctioned mores impose on them. Methods of political consultation that worked in a +more cohesive and less populous Saudi Arabia can no longer produce consensus. The fiscal +basis of the state continues to be oil exports, and oil is a commodity whose price fluctuates +unpredictably. There is, in other words, a very long list of problems for Saudis to work out in +coming years. +Let me turn briefly to Saudi Arabia's foreign relations before reviewing the state of our country's +interaction with it. +In foreign even more than domestic affairs, King Abdullah's impact has been little short of +revolutionary. He has overseen the negotiated settlement of the Kingdom's long-disputed +borders with all of its neighbors. He brought Saudi Arabia into the World Trade Organization, +ensuring that its trade and investment activities for the first time follow internationally agreed +rules. In 1982, at Beirut, he led the Arab League in an historic reversal of policy toward the +Israel-Palestine issue. Saudi Arabia had long insisted that it would be the last state in the region +to recognize and establish relations with Israel. At Beirut, King Abdullah committed to be the +first to normalize relations with Israel upon its achievement of a mutually acceptable +arrangement for coexistence with the Palestinians. He persuaded all other Arab countries to +promise they would do the same. To his great frustration, Israel did not respond. Since then, +hope for a two-state solution that could gain acceptance for Israel in the region has +dimmed. +Many of Saudi Arabia's foreign policy challenges stem from recent American policies in the +region. These policies have had the effect of liberating Israel from all constraints on its +settlement activities and belligerent intervention in its Arab neighbors, installing Iran as the +dominant political influence in both Iraq and Lebanon, consolidating rather than eroding the +Syrian-Iranian alliance, pushing Hamas into the arms of the Iranians, and raising regional +tensions over Tehran's nuclear program while doing nothing effective about it. Then there is +Afghanistan, where the United States now seems to be engaged in a crusade against militant +Islam — one that many in the region now fear may soon extend to Yemen. Saudi counter- +terrorism specialists, who have a well-deserved international reputation for effectiveness, are +convinced that the most efficient way to radicalize Muslim populations and encourage terrorism +against the United States and its foreign policy partners is to invade, occupy, and humiliate +them. They believe that the panicked militarism of the U.S. response to 9/11 was exactly what +groups like al Qa'ida hoped for. They see no sign that the United States is about to abandon +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767141 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767141 Date: 08/31/2015 +actions and policies that metastasize extremism and stimulate terrorist reprisal against Americans +and our foreign friends. +No longer willing to be publicly associated with U.S. policies in the Holy Land, Iraq, +Afghanistan, and elsewhere that radicalize the region and menace the Kingdom's own security, +Saudi Arabia is actively attempting to reduce its historic dependence on America. To this end, it +is building new relationships with counties like China, India, and Russia, while strengthening +cooperation with longstanding partners in Europe and Asia like Britain, France, Germany, Japan, +and south Korea. It is not that the Kingdom has given up on the United States. As the king's +scholarship program for Saudi students in this country evidences, Saudi Arabia continues to +reach out and seek improved relations with America. But Saudis no longer trust us to take their +interests into account or to protect them from their enemies. +In December 2002, as the U.S. prepared to invade Iraq against the forcefully expressed advice of +then Crown Prince Abdullah, Saudi Aramco (the world's largest oil company) quietly abandoned +a decades-old subsidy for the cost of shipping oil to the North American market. Within months, +China replaced the United States as the Kingdom's biggest overseas market for oil. U.S. exports +have remained relatively constant as the Saudi Arabian economy has boomed, dramatically +reducing our market share in our largest Middle Eastern market. Ironically, the best element of +the US-Saudi relationship is now cooperation against terrorists. This is a task in which the +Saudis have perforce learned to excel. American policies ensure an endless supply of angry +young Muslim men in the region, including in Saudi Arabia. +The United States is now said to have entered a ""long war."" The last time we did so, in 1947 +with Soviet Communism, the enemy was obvious, George Kerman gave us a strategy, and +skillful American diplomacy gave us the allies we needed to pursue it. Kennan's ""long +telegram"" from Moscow outlined a comprehensive approach to the political, economic, cultural, +and military containment of the threat to our survival and our values posed by the Soviet Union. +We followed his outline. Forty years later, as Kennan forecast, without our having to go to war +with the USSR, our Soviet enemy collapsed of its own infirmities. +This time, our ""long war"" is with various Islamic extremists, tribes, sects, and societies. We're +not quite sure who our enemy is. No Kennan has emerged to give us a strategy for winning +without fighting or, indeed, any ""strategy"" at all. Instead, we are flailing about with our superbly +lethal military in response to events. Lacking a strategy, we have been unable to recruit foreign +partners to support one. We are now alone in Iraq. We are isolated internationally on the Israel- +Palestine issue. Our NATO allies are with us in Afghanistan out of consideration for NATO, not +because they think we know what we are doing. Many of them have already announced their +intention to withdraw. Pakistan is with us only because all its alternatives are worse. +Saudi Arabia and America head al Qa'ida's enemies list. The Kingdom has, however, been +successfully vilified in the eyes of the American elite and public. To deal effectively with +Islamic extremism, we need Muslim allies. There is none more potent that the Kingdom of +Saudi Arabia. Yet we have made no effort to seek its advice about how to address the challenges +of Islamic extremism. We have not sought its help to legitimize an effective political, +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767141 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767141 Date: 08/31/2015 +informational, cultural, and economic strategy for productive engagement with the Islamic +world. +Meanwhile, however, many things now happening in the Kingdom — like the implicit message of +the king's vision for KAUST — suggest that such a partnership with Saudi Arabia and Arab +nations of like mind is possible. Such a partnership could be the basis for a strategy to bring +victory in this latest ""long war."" The common interests on which to forge an alliance are clearly +there. Last June in Cairo, President Obama brilliantly articulated a credible basis for sound +relations with the Islamic world. His vision was persuasive, but it remains a mirage, not a +reality. It is past time to implement it. An intensive effort to reset the relationship with Saudi +Arabia and to craft a common antiterrorist strategy with its king would be a good place to start. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767141 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3950,C05767145,LATEST DRAFT OF DOHA,"Cooper, Justin","Abedin, Huma",81,2010-02-12T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0065/DOC_0C05767145/C05767145.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,latest draft of Doha,Justin Cooper,"Abed in, Huma ",,"Friday, February 12, 2010 4:14 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767145,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,J - can u print for hrc?

We have begun to roll-out the new plan and so far the reaction has been reasonably positive. We have +organized a set of working groups around key initiatives --- women's empowerment; cve; expanded English language +training; cultural programming; youth; climate change; etc so that we can incorporate new proposals into FY2012 +budget and re-direct FY 2010 and 2011 funds wherever possible and appropriate. The working groups are being chaired +by senior level officers from the regional bureaus --- Bob Blake; Craig Kelly, etc. --- and are being asked to report back +within 4 to 6 weeks. I'll continue to keep you posted as things move forward. +The New Public Diplomacy +Joseph S. Nye +2010-02-10 +CAMBRIDGE — The world of traditional power politics was typically about whose military or economy would +win. In today's information age, politics is also about whose ""story"" wins. +National narratives are, indeed, a type of currency. Governments compete with each other and with other +organizations to enhance their own credibility and weaken that of their opponents. Witness the contest between +the government and protesters after the Iranian elections in June 2009, in which the Internet and Twitter played +crucial roles, or the recent controversy between Google and China. +Reputation has always mattered in world politics, but credibility has become crucial because of a ""paradox of +plenty."" When information is plentiful, the scarce resource is attention. Under the new conditions, a soft sell +may, more than ever, prove more effective than a hard sell. +For example, the relative independence of the BBC, sometimes a source of consternation to British +governments, has paid rich dividends in credibility, as illustrated by this account of Tanzanian President Jakaya +Kikwete's day: ""he rises at dawn, listens to the BBC World Service, then scans the Tanzanian press."" +Skeptics who treat the term ""public diplomacy"" as a mere euphemism for propaganda miss the point. Simple +propaganda is counterproductive as public diplomacy. Nor is public diplomacy merely a public-relations +campaign. Public diplomacy also involves building long-term relationships that create an enabling environment +for government policies. +The contribution of direct government information to long-term cultural relationships varies with three +dimensions or stages of public diplomacy, and all three are important. The first and most immediate dimension +is daily communications, which involves explaining the context of domestic and foreign-policy decisions. This +dimension also involves preparation for dealing with crises. If there is a vacuum in information after an event, +others will rush in to fill it. +The second dimension is strategic communication, which develops a set of simple themes, much as a political +or advertising campaign does. While the first dimension is measured in hours and days, the second occurs over +weeks, months, and even years. +The third dimension of public diplomacy is the development of lasting relationships with key individuals over +many years or even decades, through scholarships, exchanges, training, seminars, conferences, and access to +media channels. These programs develop what the American journalist Edward R.

We have begun to roll-out the new plan and so far the reaction has been reasonably positive. We have +organized a set of working groups around key initiatives --- women's empowerment; cve; expanded English language +training; cultural programming; youth; climate change; etc so that we can incorporate new proposals into FY2012 +budget and re-direct FY 2010 and 2011 funds wherever possible and appropriate.

I'll continue to keep you posted as things move forward. +The New Public Diplomacy +Joseph S. Nye +2010-02-10 +CAMBRIDGE — The world of traditional power politics was typically about whose military or economy would +win. In today's information age, politics is also about whose ""story"" wins. +National narratives are, indeed, a type of currency. Governments compete with each other and with other +organizations to enhance their own credibility and weaken that of their opponents. Witness the contest between +the government and protesters after the Iranian elections in June 2009, in which the Internet and Twitter played +crucial roles, or the recent controversy between Google and China. +Reputation has always mattered in world politics, but credibility has become crucial because of a ""paradox of +plenty."" When information is plentiful, the scarce resource is attention. Under the new conditions, a soft sell +may, more than ever, prove more effective than a hard sell. +For example, the relative independence of the BBC, sometimes a source of consternation to British +governments, has paid rich dividends in credibility, as illustrated by this account of Tanzanian President Jakaya +Kikwete's day: ""he rises at dawn, listens to the BBC World Service, then scans the Tanzanian press."" +Skeptics who treat the term ""public diplomacy"" as a mere euphemism for propaganda miss the point. Simple +propaganda is counterproductive as public diplomacy. Nor is public diplomacy merely a public-relations +campaign. Public diplomacy also involves building long-term relationships that create an enabling environment +for government policies. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767159 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767159 Date: 08/31/2015 +The contribution of direct government information to long-term cultural relationships varies with three +dimensions or stages of public diplomacy, and all three are important. The first and most immediate dimension +is daily communications, which involves explaining the context of domestic and foreign-policy decisions. This +dimension also involves preparation for dealing with crises. If there is a vacuum in information after an event, +others will rush in to fill it. +The second dimension is strategic communication, which develops a set of simple themes, much as a political +or advertising campaign does. While the first dimension is measured in hours and days, the second occurs over +weeks, months, and even years. +The third dimension of public diplomacy is the development of lasting relationships with key individuals over +many years or even decades, through scholarships, exchanges, training, seminars, conferences, and access to +media channels. These programs develop what the American journalist Edward R. Murrow once called the +crucial ""last three feet"" — face-to-face communications, with the enhanced credibility that reciprocity creates. +But even the best advertising cannot sell an unpopular product.

Embassy Paris also reached out to senior officials in the Elysee, MFA, +French media and civil society at all levels to underscore the message of positive coordination with our French partners +and to set the record straight on the work of the USG in Haiti. As a result, leading French officials dismissed rumors of +rising diplomatic tensions between the two countries. Leading officials consistently praised the work of the Obama +administration in Haiti and the need for a strong US role in the emergency response. +• Embassy London's media blitz featured Ambassador Susman, who underlined the U.S. commitment to Haiti at an +Embassy Martin Luther King Jr. holiday event with actor James Earl Jones; the event was covered by BBC World News +(audience 270 million worldwide) and various U.K. papers. The Ambassador and the 10 also spoke about Haiti on +January 20-22 on BBC TV 2's ""Daily Politics Show,"" BBC Radio, the BBC TV Evening News, and other media and helped +embed an IW journalist on the USNS Comfort to help balance ITV's previously negative reporting and reached out +personally to BBC producers to call attention to inaccurate reporting alleging that the U.S. military prevented Medicins +Sans Frontiers from delivering aid and supplies to the airport in Port Au Prince. +• With media coverage growing more critical, U.S. Ambassador to Greece Speckhard gave an interview to Ta Nea +newspaper and DCM Deborah McCarthy, who previously served in Haiti, was interviewed by Real Sunday newspaper, +resulting in positive stories about U.S. assistance to Haiti. Meanwhile, the PAO spoke with the Director of Elefterotypia, +whose paper has run some of the most misdirected coverage of Haiti, and received a commitment to run an Embassy- +produced story to counteract the misinformation. +AFRICA +Four African posts — Senegal, Ghana, Nigeria and Tanzania — organized highly successful outreach programs based on +the diversion of the USS Gunston Hall to Haiti. The ship, with African officers aboard, was headed to western Africa +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767161 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767161 Date: 08/31/2015 +under AFRICOM's African Partnership Station maritime security training program when it was diverted to provide relief +to Haiti. With African officers working alongside U.S. military officers to deliver assistance to Haitians, PAOs at those +posts connected local reporters with the ship to conduct live interviews of the Africans for their home media, resulting in +excellent media placement in all four countries. +• On January 20 U.S. Ambassador to South Africa Gips gave a 10-minute live interview on Haiti with 5FM, a leading +youth station with listenership of approx 800,000. The Ambassador highlighted the depth and breadth of US support +and congratulated South Africa for sending emergency teams. The radio hosts told the Embassy afterward that e-mails +and SMS messages were pouring into the station in support of U.S. efforts. Ambassador Gips reached out to additional +audiences via broadcast media on January 21 and recorded a program via the Africa Regional Media Hub with SABC- +International TV's ""Rendezvous Africa"" program (broadcast across the continent) and live interviews with drive-time +radio programs on two national stations. +• As a result of a press conference hosted by the Embassy on January 22, all major Angolan media gave positive +coverage to U.S. efforts in Haiti, including Radio Nacional de Angola and the Jornal de Angola newspaper, which ran an +editorial January 23 that stated: ""We need to believe and let those on the ground do their work because the old tactics +of criticizing who is doing something for the Haitian People just for the sake of criticizing at a moment like this is not +acceptable... Just see the numbers of daily flights that arrive in Haiti to have an idea and quickly come to the conclusion +that the possible failures and omissions do not supersede the positive and timely work done by the entities undertaking +the relief efforts in Haiti."" +EAST ASIA-PACIFIC +• The U.S. Ambassador to Indonesia's January 21 byliner on Haiti ran as the lead item on the editorial page of Seputar +Indonesia daily, and it was subsequently picked up by Antara, the Indonesian national news agency, and subsequently +appeared in most Indonesian media. +• South Korea: Looking to help Korean audiences connect with the situation in Haiti, PA Seoul arranged a Digital Video +Conference with the U.S. Consul in Nagoya, Japan, who had previously served as Information Officer in Port-au-Prince +and was a fluent Korean speaker. CG Kwak underlined the long tradition of US humanitarian assistance to Haiti as well +as the massive US response to the current crisis and noted Korea's own active involvement in the relief work. The U.S. +Ambassador's blog on January 22, dedicated to the earthquake and those affected by it, received more than 1,500 hits in +three days, with almost all comments supporting U.S. concerns. +The EAP Regional Media Hub in Tokyo hosted a journalists' roundtable with Gordon Duguid in Haiti on January 25 that +included journalists from Hong Kong's Ming Pao newspaper, Malaysia's New Straits Times newspaper, BERNAMA +(Malaysian National News Agency), and Australia's Canberra Times newspaper and Radio 6PR (Perth), and resulted in +favorable stories appearing over the next few days in all participating media. +NEAR EAST +• Lebanon: Television station Al-Jadid is not Hezbollah-affiliated, with most of its funding coming from the Gulf and +Libya. Their coverage is also routinely sensationalistic and mirrored Al-Manar's coverage. PAS Beirut clarified aspects of +USG assistance in Haiti to Al-Jadid on January 20. On Saturday January 23, Al-Jadid hosted the PAO for 30 minutes on +morning news talk-show al-Hadath to discuss American relief efforts in Haiti. The PAO was able to address many of the +accusations carried in the Al-Manar report, including the myriad ""weapons testing"" myths being propagated by Russian +and Venezuelan media outlets. [Post cannot engage directly with Hezbollah television station Al-Manar as it was +designated as a Special Designated Global Terrorist organization in 2006 under E.O. 13224] +Morocco: On 1/28/10 the nationalist French-language daily L'Opinion published an op-ed entitled, ""Haiti: After +terror, the dread..."" The paper is generally considered to be fairly hostile to the USG, however, on 1/29/10, PAO Rabat +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767161 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767161 Date: 08/31/2015 +and an FSN went to L'Opinion to discuss the op-ed. Post was amazed to find the staff, including the writer himself, +accommodating and even apologetic during the meeting. The editor-in-chief immediately agreed that the piece had +been unfair, and the writer somewhat sheepishly explained himself by saying that public opinion had not quite +recovered from ""the Bush years,"" but readily acknowledged as well that the article was not balanced. PAO gave the +writer a dossier of Washington File articles and some information from Infocentral's regular updates, which he promised +to use in writing a counterpoint article. On 2/1/10, L'Opinion published an article entitled, ""The massive humanitarian +action of the United States,"" based on the articles provided by Post. The excellent article underscored the scope of +American assistance, both government and private sector, to aide Haiti's earthquake victims. +• Syria: Syrian state-run media coverage of the USG role in Haiti relief efforts has been largely negative and inaccurate, +portraying the U.S. military as occupying Haiti. Examples include the Ba'ath party's Al-Baath newspaper publishing three +critical articles (1/21/01) under the headlines: ""US Crimes in Haiti,"" ""US Military Forces Tighten Grip on Haiti,"" and ""US +Forces Stop Humanitarian Planes from Landing."" On 1/25/10, government-owned Tishreen published an op-ed claiming +that the superpowers were rushing towards a military conquest of Haiti in order to profit from reconstruction +operations, which is the new method of colonialism. On 1/28/10, DAS Maura Connelly met with Syrian Ambassador +Mustafa, who promised to work to halt the negative coverage coming from some Syrian outlets. To encourage more +balanced coverage, Embassy Damascus will host a roundtable 2/3/10 with journalists from government-owned and +independent Syrian media. Post also extended a personal invitation to an advisor of the Minister of Information. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767161 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3960,C05767162,THINKING,H,"Mikulski, Bam (Mikulski)",15,2010-02-13T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0065/DOC_0C05767162/C05767162.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05767162,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Mikulski, BAM (Mikulski) +Saturday, February 13, 2010 9:55 AM +H +Re: Thinking +You are desparately needed +$$raisers---- did you know I've hired mandy as my media person— yes up for re elect.

But within a few months of being sworn in, the President and his top aides were sitting +down with leaders from the pharmaceutical industry to hash out a deal that they thought would make health care reform +possible. +Over the following months, pharmaceutical industry lobbyists and executives met with top White House aides dozens of +times to hammer out a deal that would secure industry support for the administration's health care reform agenda in +exchange for the White House abandoning key elements of the president's promises to reform the pharmaceutical +industry. They flooded Congress with campaign contributions, and hired dozens of former Capitol Hill insiders to push +their case. How they did it--pieced together from news accounts, disclosure forms including lobbying reports and Federal +Election Commission records, White House visitor logs and the sghedu! ..S,:::in. Max,Baucus releases yoiun:tarily--is a +testament to how ingrained the grip of special interests remains in Washington. +In the 2008 campaign, Obama declared his intention to include all stakeholders as he sought to reform the nation's health +care system, but also supported key qemocr.atic health reform uok, +sies. Among these were several that targeted the +pharmaceutical industry: Allowing re-importation of drugs from first world countries with lower drug prices and providing +Medicare with negotiating authority over prescription drug prices in the recently enacted Part D program. These weren't +just promises, Obama had already voted for both of them as a senator in 2007. (Rdl Call Vote 132 and Roll call Vo.t.c.-) +150.) +Set to carry out this agenda were two Capitol Hill veterans, schooled in the monied Washington culture, chief of staff +Rahm Emanuel and deputy chief of staff Jim Messina. Emanuel was a former fundraiser, Clinton administration official, +investment banker and member of the Democratic leadership in Congress. Messina was the former campaign manager +B6 +and chief of staff to the powerful Senate Finance Committee chairman Max Baucus. Both were known for their +unparalleled legislative abilities. +Because of Obama's decision to develop a plan operating through the legislative process, members of Congress also +played key roles. Early on, the pharmaceutical companies were told to deal directly with Senate Finance Committee +chairman Max Bpuf. +-4:s. Baucus would be the vehicle for the deal worked out behind the scenes by the White House and +PhRMA. +Central to this effort was PhRMA president, CEO and top lobbyist Billy Tauzin, a longtime Democratic member of +Congress who switched party affiliations after Republicans gained control of Congress in 1994. By switching parties +Tauzin was able to maintain his influence and even rose to be Chairman of the House Committee on Energy & +Commerce. Tauzin became the poster child of Washington's mercenary culture. He crafted a bill to provide prescription +drug access to Medicare recipients, one that provided major concessions to the pharmaceutical industry. Medicare would +not be able to negotiate for lower prescription drug costs and reimportation of drugs from first world countries would not be +allowed. A few months after the bill passed, Tauzin announced that he was retiring from Congress and would be taking a +job helming PhRMA for a salary of $2 million. +Tauzin's job change became fodder for a campaign ad that then presidential candidate Barack Obama ran in the spring of +2008 simply titled "".Biliy."" It featured the candidate, sleeves rolled up, talking to a salon of gasping Americans about the +ways of Washington. ""The pharmaceutical industry wrote into the prescription drug plan that Medicare could not negotiate +with drug companies. And you know what, the chairman of the committee, who pushed the law through, went to work for +the pharmaceutical industry making $2 million a year.""

Aside from +PhRMA's massive in-house lobbying operation, the trade group hired 48 outside lobbying firms. The total number of +lobbyists working for PhRMA in 2009 reached 165. Some 137 of those 165 lobbyists representing PhRMA were former +employees of either the legislative or executive branches. Of these dozens were former congressional staffers including +two former chiefs of staff to Max Baucus. +According to data compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics, drug makers coptr.ibu■ed sums to ....:ongressional +ecii-om.lttee.s during the same period--from January to the end of October (4thquarter numbers are still being +totaled), industry political action committees, employees and their family members flooded lawmakers with over $8 million. +Those contributions tilted heavily to Democrats over Republicans by a 57 to 42 percent margin--the first time in any +election cycle going back to 1990, the first year that the Center for Responsive Politics began tracking industry giving, that +Democrats were so favored. Given their majorities on Capitol Hill, and the new President's intention to reform America's +health care system, the new tilt was perhaps not surprising. +On March 5, the White House a Tee.tiilfa....ivitfi.rnnic!r_nealth care induLd.er.s to try to bring them to the table and +see what could be done to gain their support. In attendance were Billy Tauzin, president, CEO and top lobbyist for +PhRMA, Pfizer CEO Jeff Kindler, America's Health Care Plans (AHIP) Chairman Karen lgnani, Tom Donohue of the +Chamber of Commerce and Robert Wood Johnson Foundations' Rise Lavizzomourey.

Spme were duri?0,7rognnd,, +,td by this apparent change of +heart on behalf of an industry long adverse to health care reforms. +On April 15, Jim Messina and Jon Selib, chief of staff to Senate Finance Committee chairman Max Baucus, convened a +meeting at the headquarters of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) with leaders of organized labor +and health care groups, including PhRMA. At the meeting, the groups decided to form two nonprofit entities to promote +reform efforts, Healthy Economy Now and Americans for Stable Quality Care, that would be almost entftelv funoed pj +. +PhRMA. The two groups spent $24 million on their advertising campaigns; the contract to produce and place ads went to +White House Senior Advisor David AKPD, which owed Axelrod $2 million. +In the next month, CEO's from pharmaceutical companies would meet with Baucus and administration officials at least +four times. These talks preceded a major public event at the White House, one critical to its strategy to promote health +care reform. On May 11, PhRMA and other trade industry groups piedaed cost , +..-v_itting_measures to the White House that +would save, they claimed, upwards of $2 trillion over the next decade. President Obama announced the deal in the State +Dining Room, flanked by leaders of the various trade groups; the administration followed up with a media blitz in the press +and on the White House Web site. +The next day, Healthy Economy Now's PhRMA funded ad campaign ran their first advertisement in support of the health +care reform process calling for the government to finally ""fix"" the nation's health care cost problems. While many elements +of the $2 trillion cost cutting pledge fell apart, the drug industry remained committed to the process in the hopes that they +could ultimately win out and defeat the provisions they most feared in closed-door meetings with the White House: +The first occurred on June 2. White House visitor logs show PhRMA's top executives, including Tauzin, and industry +CEOs met with Sarah Fenn from the White House Office of Health Care Reform. On the same day, the publicly available +schedule of Senator Max Baucus shows Tauzin and the same industry CEOs met the Senate Finance Committee +chairman. What ultimately resulted from these coordinated meetings would be revealed by Baucus on June 20. +In a press release featuring a statement by Tauzin, Baucus revealed that the pharmaceutical industry had accepted $80 +billion in cost cutting measures to be included in the Senate Finance Committee version of the bill. According to news +re_gorts, Baucus initially proposed $100 billion in cost cutting measures, but the executives and lobbyists meeting on June +2 were able to win the lower figure. +The terms of the initial cost-cutting deal included $30 billion go directly towards closing the ""donut hole"" in Medicare +prescription drug coverage. The ""donut hole"" is a term for the gap in coverage that occurs within the Medicare prescription +drug coverage. For those purchasing prescription drugs through the Medicare program coverage cuts off at $2,700 spent +and does not pick back up again until $6,154 is spent by the participant. The amount proposed in the deal; 50 percent +coverage for drugs within the coverage gap, however, would not completely close the ""donut hole."" +In Baucus' press release, Tauzin is quoted as saying, ""This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and, working together, we +can make this hope for a better tomorrow a reality today."" This ""once-in-a-lifetime"" opportunity also extended to the +pharmaceutical industry's ability to blunt the long-term Democratic agenda of lowering prescription drug prices through +Medicare negotiations, re-importation and quicker release of generics onto the market. After making such a grand +statement of support through cost cutting proposals it was time for the pharmaceutical industry to finally force the White +House and Democrats to take certain chips off the table. +Baucus proceeded with a_pia,n c.c)r +.ivene.a bicartisap rimuo in an effort to craft the bill desired by the White House. +These participants included Democrats Kent Conrad and Jeff Bingaman and Republicans Chuck Grassley, Mike Enzi and +Olympia Snowe. Baucus' decision and the need to solidify deals with groups like the pharmaceutical industry - which were +reliant on Baucus producing a bill - slowed down the legislative process making it impossible for Congress to meet the +White House's announced iltuouet reces§ dee&rie for passing health care reform. +Soon after, PhRMA's big guns and industry lobbyists paid the White House another visit on July 7 and this time met with +Rehm Emanuel and Jim Messina (Baucus' chief of staff Jon Selib is also listed in White House visitor logs for this +meeting). In August, The Huffirytorj. !Dosi',. +--; Ryan Grim reported on an internal memo that was drafted at that meeting that +outlined the policies that would not be allowed into any final version of health care reform. These included Medicare +prescription drug negotiations, drug re-importation, and the lowering of prices for drugs available through Medicare Part D +and Part B. The deal would be $80 billion in cost cutting and absolutely no more. +*** +While the $80 billion deal was cut with Baucus' committee, other congressional committees continued to mark-up their +own versions of health care reform without the knowledge that the White House was relying on Baucus to produce the +final product. In the House of Representatives, the House Energy & Commerce Committee leveled a direct threat to the +$80 billion deal. Energy & Commerce Chair Henry Waxman sought to include all of the provisions that PhRMA had gotten +the White House and Baucus to cut out of the reform bill. These included drug reimportation. Medicare negotiating power +and speedier release of generics to the market. According to previous analysis of the measures proposed by the +committee, these measures would have totaled hundreds of billions in cost cuts, far exceeding the $80 billion cap agreed +to by the White House, Baucus and PhRMA. +The cost cutting measures passed in the Energy & Commerce bill spooked the board of PhRMA, which included all of the +CEOs involved in the deal-cutting meetings with the White House and Baucus. The board pressured Tauzin to go public +with the deal to ensure that the White House would recognize it and not renege. On August 4, the Los Ancg•3les•Firrief- +, +- +:, in +an exclusive report, featured quotes from Tauzin claiming that a deal between the White House and PhRMA existed and +that, as Tauzin put it, ""The White House blessed it."" Tom Hamburger wrote in the article, ""For his part, Tauzin said he had +not only received the White House pledge to forswear Medicare drug price bargaining, but also a separate promise not to +pursue another proposal Obama supported during the campaign: importing cheaper drugs from Canada or Europe."" +The White House's Jim Messina later confirmed Tauzin's claim, stating, ""The president encouraged this approach ... He +wanted to bring all the parties to the table to discuss health insurance reform."" +Democratic lawmakers were furious. Rep. Raul Grijaiva, chairman of the Progressive Caucus, asked, ""Are industry groups +going to be the ones at the table who get the first big piece of the pie and we just fight over the crust?"" +*** +On September 7, Baucus' bill made a private circulation on the Hill; pharmaceutical industry cost-cutting did not exceed +$80 billion. Five days later, the New York :limes reported that PhRMA planned to spend up to $150 million in an +advertising blitz in support of Baucus' bill. The Times noted that the ad spending ""...would be a follow-up to the deal that +drug makers struck in June with Mr. Baucus and the White House."" On September 16, Baucus released the full text of his +les.j +.islation to the public. t +The White House, PhRMA and Baucus still had to fight a few battles to keep the deal intact. The key amendment +targeting the PhRMA deal in committee mark-up came from Sen. Bill Nelson from Florida, which has one of the largest +Medicare participant populations in the nation. The pull of constituent needs clearly put Bill Nelson into a position to push +for further cost cutting in Medicare prescription drug pricing. His target: closing the ""donut hole"" completely. +Nelson claimed that his amendment would onerate $106 billion in revenue, or from PhRMA's perspective increase their +cost-cutting to $186 billion. That would be unacceptable to PhRMA, to Baucus, to the White House and to the +pharmaceutical industry who had made the deal. Other Senate Democrats, Tom Carper and Robert Menendez voted with +Republicans and Baucus on the committee to defeat the amendment. It is little surprise the Carper's Delaware is home to +AstraZeneca and Menendez' New Jersey is home to Merck and Bristol-Myers-Squibb, all of which lobbied for the $80 +billion cap. +Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid introduced the final bill, with the cap in place, on November 19. Debate began on Dec. +3, and with it come one more attempt by members to change the terms of the deal. Senator Byron Dorgan introduced an +amendment that would allow for drug re-importation, but as the date for voting drew near, the Federal Drug Administration +(FDA) released a letter objecting to the proposal that echoed pharmaceutical industry talking points: ""...as currently +written, the resulting structure would be logistically challenging to implement and resource intensive. In addition, there are +significant safety concerns."" Dorgan's amendment was defeated with numerous Democrats previously in support of +reimportation switching to ""no"" votes. +On Christmas Eve, the bill passed the Senate with the PhRMA deal fully intact. +*** +New Year's Eve passed with no further action on health care reform. Public opinion regarding the health care reform bill +had been slipping throughout 2009. It reached a fulcrum in the special election to replace the deceased senator Ted +Kennedy in Massachusetts on January 19, 2010. Newly minted senator Scott Brown campaigned that he would be the +senator to provide Republicans with the votes to filibuster the final health care reform bill. Democrats ran for cover. +Despite having the largest majorities of any party since the 1970s, Democrats put the brakes on their agenda, particularly +health care reform. +in the end, the pharmaceutical industry's support for health care reform would be left up in the air.

But within a few months of being sworn in, the President and his top aides were sitting +down with leaders from the pharmaceutical industry to hash out a deal that they thought would make health care reform +possible. +Over the following months, pharmaceutical industry lobbyists and executives met with top White House aides dozens of +times to hammer out a deal that would secure industry support for the administration's health care reform agenda in +exchange for the White House abandoning key elements of the president's promises to reform the pharmaceutical +industry. They flooded Congress with campaign contributions, and hired dozens of former Capitol Hill insiders to push +their case. How they did it--pieced together from news accounts, disclosure forms including lobbying reports and Federal +Election Commission records, White House visitor logs and the sghedu! ..S,:::in. Max,Baucus releases yoiun:tarily--is a +testament to how ingrained the grip of special interests remains in Washington. +In the 2008 campaign, Obama declared his intention to include all stakeholders as he sought to reform the nation's health +care system, but also supported key qemocr.atic health reform uok, +sies. Among these were several that targeted the +pharmaceutical industry: Allowing re-importation of drugs from first world countries with lower drug prices and providing +Medicare with negotiating authority over prescription drug prices in the recently enacted Part D program. These weren't +just promises, Obama had already voted for both of them as a senator in 2007. (Rdl Call Vote 132 and Roll call Vo.t.c.-) +150.) +Set to carry out this agenda were two Capitol Hill veterans, schooled in the monied Washington culture, chief of staff +Rahm Emanuel and deputy chief of staff Jim Messina. Emanuel was a former fundraiser, Clinton administration official, +investment banker and member of the Democratic leadership in Congress. Messina was the former campaign manager +B6 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767164 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767164 Date: 08/31/2015 +and chief of staff to the powerful Senate Finance Committee chairman Max Baucus. Both were known for their +unparalleled legislative abilities. +Because of Obama's decision to develop a plan operating through the legislative process, members of Congress also +played key roles. Early on, the pharmaceutical companies were told to deal directly with Senate Finance Committee +chairman Max Bpuf. +-4:s. Baucus would be the vehicle for the deal worked out behind the scenes by the White House and +PhRMA. +Central to this effort was PhRMA president, CEO and top lobbyist Billy Tauzin, a longtime Democratic member of +Congress who switched party affiliations after Republicans gained control of Congress in 1994. By switching parties +Tauzin was able to maintain his influence and even rose to be Chairman of the House Committee on Energy & +Commerce. Tauzin became the poster child of Washington's mercenary culture. He crafted a bill to provide prescription +drug access to Medicare recipients, one that provided major concessions to the pharmaceutical industry. Medicare would +not be able to negotiate for lower prescription drug costs and reimportation of drugs from first world countries would not be +allowed. A few months after the bill passed, Tauzin announced that he was retiring from Congress and would be taking a +job helming PhRMA for a salary of $2 million. +Tauzin's job change became fodder for a campaign ad that then presidential candidate Barack Obama ran in the spring of +2008 simply titled "".Biliy."" It featured the candidate, sleeves rolled up, talking to a salon of gasping Americans about the +ways of Washington. ""The pharmaceutical industry wrote into the prescription drug plan that Medicare could not negotiate +with drug companies. And you know what, the chairman of the committee, who pushed the law through, went to work for +the pharmaceutical industry making $2 million a year."" The screen fades to black to inform the viewer that, ""Barack +Obama is the only candidate who refuses Washington lobbyist money,"" while the candidate continues his lecture, +""Imagine that.

COM . +More than a million spectators gathered before the Capitol on a frosty January +afternoon to witness the inauguration of Barack Obama, who promised in his +campaign to change Washington's mercenary culture of lobbyists, special interest +influence and backroom deals. But within a few months of being sworn in, the +President and his top aides were sitting down with leaders from the +pharmaceutical industry to hash out a deal that they thought would make health +care reform possible. +Over the following months, pharmaceutical industry lobbyists and executives met +with top White House aides dozens of times to hammer out a deal that would +secure industry support for the administration's health care reform agenda in +exchange for the White House abandoning key elements of the president's promises +to reform the pharmaceutical industry. They flooded Congress with campaign +contributions, and hired dozens of former Capitol Hill insiders to push their +case. How they did it--pieced together from news accounts, disclosure forms +including lobbying reports and Federal Election Commission records, White House +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 +visitor logs and the schedule Sen. Max Baucus releases voluntarily + --is a testament to how +ingrained the grip of special interests remains in Washington. +In the 2008 campaign, Obama declared his intention to include all stakeholders +as he sought to reform the nation's health care system, but also supported key +Democratic health reform policies + +. Among these were several that targeted the pharmaceutical industry: Allowing +re-importation of drugs from first world countries with lower drug prices and +providing Medicare with negotiating authority over prescription drug prices in +the recently enacted Part D program. These weren't just promises, Obama had +already voted for both of them as a senator in 2007. (Roll Call Vote 132 + +and Roll Call Vote 150 + +cfm.cfm?conaess=1l +r.,- /roli_ call vote ...:frl.cfm?con4res +.) +Set to carry out this agenda were two Capitol Hill veterans, schooled in the +monied. Washington culture, chief of staff Rehm Emanuel + +and deputy chief of staff Jim Messina. +. Emanuel was a former fundraiser, Clinton administration official, investment +banker and member of the Democratic leadership in Congress. Messina was the +former campaign manager and chief of staff to the powerful Senate Finance +Committee chairman Max Baucus. Both were known for their unparalleled +legislative abilities. +Because of Obama's decision to develop a plan operating through the legislative +process, members of Congress also played key roles. Early on, the pharmaceutical +companies were told to deal directly with Senate Finance Committee chairman Max +Baucus . Baucus +would be the vehicle for the deal worked out behind the scenes by the White +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 +House and PhRMA. +Central to this effort was PhRMA president, CEO and top lobbyist Billy Tauzin, a +longtime Democratic member of Congress who switched party affiliations after +Republicans gained control of Congress in 1994. By switching parties Tauzin was +able to maintain his influence and even rose to be Chairman of the House +Committee on Energy & Commerce. Tauzin became the poster child of Washington's +mercenary culture. He crafted a bill to provide prescription drug access to +Medicare recipients, one that provided major concessions to the pharmaceutical +industry. Medicare would not be able to negotiate for lower prescription drug +costs and reimportation of drugs from first world countries would not be +allowed. A few months after the bill passed, Tauzin announced that he was +retiring- from Congress and would be taking a job helming PhRMA for a salary of +$2 million. +Tauzin's job change became fodder for a campaign ad that then presidential +candidate Barack Obama ran in the spring of 2008 simply titled ""Billy + ."" It featured the candidate, +sleeves rolled up, talking to a salon of gasping Americans about the ways of +Washington. ""The pharmaceutical industry wrote into the prescription drug plan +that Medicare could not negotiate with drug +. companies. And you know what, the +chairman of the committee, who pushed the law through, went to work for the +pharmaceutical industry making $2 million a year."" The screen fades to black to +Inform the viewer that, ""Barack Obama is the only candidate who refuses +Washington lobbyist money,"" while the candidate continues his lecture, ""Imagine +that. That's an example of the same old game playing in Washington. You know, I +don't want to learn how to play the game better, I want to put an end to the +game playing."" +Aiding PhRMA in their outreach to Congress would be a squadron of lobbyists to +push their health care reform priorities. Over the course of 2009, the drug +industry trade group spent over $28 million +<1-7,2://,; +.,_apecrets.prg/lccol?y/clientsum.php,?liiame-Phari-aceuticalH3.srch.1-%26-FMfrof+Am +orica&year=200c)> +on in house and hired lobbyists. Aside from PhRMA's massive in-house lobbying +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 +operation, the trade group hired 48 outside lobbying firms. The total number of +lobbyists working for PhRMA in 2009 reached 165. Some 137 of those 165 lobbyists +representing PhRMA were former employees of either the legislative or executive +branches. Of these dozens were former congressional staffers including two +former chiefs of staff to Max Baucus. +According to data compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics, drug makers +contributed huge sums to congressional campaign committees + +during the same period--from January to the end of October (4th quarter numbers +are still being totaled), industry political action committees, employees and +their family members flooded lawmakers with over $8 million. Those contributions +tilted heavily to Democrats over Republicans by a 57 to 42 percent margin--the +first time in any election cycle going back to 1990, the first year that the +Center for Responsive Politics began tracking industry giving, that Democrats +were so favored. Given their majorities on Capitol Hill, and the new President's +intention to reform America's health care system, the new tilt was perhaps not +surprising. +* * w +On March 5, the White House held a meeting with major health care industry +leaders +to try to bring them to the table and see what could be done to gain their +support. In attendance were Billy Tauzin, oresident, CEO and top lobbyist for +PhRMA, Pfizer CEO Jeff Kindler, America's Health Care Plans (AHIP) Chairman +Karen Ignani, Tom Donohue of the Chamber of Commerce and Robert Wood Johnson +Foundations' Rise Lavizzomourey. A day before the White House meeting Tauzin +appeared on CNBC + +touting health care reform and promising to work closely with the Obama +administration. In the interview he touted it as an ""optimistic plan"", +acknowledging that the industry did have a few problems but was glad to have a +chance to discuss these. Some were + +caught dumb-founded + +by this apparent change of heart on behalf of an industry long adverse to health +care reforms. +On April 15, Jim Messina and Jon Selib, chief of staff to Senate Finance +Committee chairman Max Baucus, convened a meeting at the headquarters of the +Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) with leaders of organized labor +and health care groups, including PhRMA. At the meeting, the groups decided to +form two nonprofit entities to promote reform efforts, Healthy Economy Now and +Americans for Stable Quality Care, that would be almost entirely funded by PhRMA + . The two groups spent +$24 million on their advertising campaigns; the contract to produce and place +ads went to White House Senior Advisor David Axelrod's former firm + +to the White House that would save, they claimed, upwards of $2 trillion over +the next decade. President Obama announced the deal in the State Dining Room, +flanked by leaders of the various trade groups; the administration followed up +with a media blitz in the press and on the White House Web site + . +The next day, Healthy Economy Now's PhRMA funded ad campaign ran their first +advertisement in support of the +health care reform process calling for the government to finally ""fix"" the +nation's health care cost problems. While many elements of the $2 trillion cost +cutting pledge fell apart, the drug industry remained committed to the process +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 +in the hopes that they could ultimately win out and defeat the provisions they +most feared in closed-door meetings with the White House. +The first occurred on June 2. White House visitor logs show PhRMA's top +executives, including Tauzin, and industry CEOs met with Sarah Fenn from the +White House Office of Health Care Reform. On the same day, the publicly +available schedule of Senator Max Baucus shows Tauzin and the same industry CEOs +met the Senate Finance Committee chairman. What ultimately resulted from these +coordinated meetings would be revealed by Baucus on June 20. +In a press release +featuring a statement by Tauzin, Baucus revealed that the pharmaceutical +industry had accepted $80 billion in cost cutting measures to be included in the +Senate Finance Committee version of the bill. According to news reports + +, Baucus initially proposed $100 billion in cost cutting measures, but the +executives and lobbyists meeting on June 2 were able to win the lower figure. +The terms of the initial cost-cutting deal included $30 billion go directly +towards closing the ""donut hole"" in Medicare prescription drug coverage. The +""donut hole"" is a term for the gap in coverage that occurs within the Medicare +prescription drug coverage. For those purchasing prescription drugs through the +Medicare program coverage cuts off at $2,700 spent and does not pick back up +again until $6,154 is spent by the participant. The amount proposed in the deal, +50 percent coverage for drugs within the coverage gap, however, would not +completely close the ""donut hole."" +In Baucus' press release, Tauzin is quoted as saying, ""This is a +once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and, working together, we can make this hope for +a better tomorrow a reality today."" This ""once-in-a-lifetime"" opportunity also +extended to the pharmaceutical industry's ability to blunt the long-term +Democratic agenda of lowering prescription drug prices through Medicare +negotiations, re-importation and quicker release of generics onto the market. +After making such a grand statement of support through cost cutting proposals it +was time for the pharmaceutical industry to finally force the White House and +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 +Democrats to take certain chips off the table. +Baucus proceeded with a plan to convene a bipartisan group + +in an effort to craft the bill desired by the White House. These participants +included Democrats Kent Conrad and Jeff Bingaman and Republicans Chuck Grassley, +Mike Enzi and Olympia Snowe. Baucus' decision and the need to solidify deals +with groups like the pharmaceutical industry - which were reliant on Baucus +producing a bill - slowed down the legislative process making it impossible for +Congress to meet the White House's announced August recess deadline + +for passing health care reform. +Soon after, PhRMA's big guns and industry lobbyists paid the White House another +visit on July 7 and this time met with Rahm Emanuel and Jim Messina (Baucus' +chief of staff Jon Selib is also listed in White House visitor logs for this +meeting). In August, The Huffington Post's + +Ryan Grim reported on an internal memo that was drafted at that meeting that +outlined the policies that would not be allowed into any final version of health +'care reform. These included Medicare prescription drug negotiations, drug +re-importation, and the lowering of prices for drugs available through Medicare +Part D and Part B. The deal would be $eo billion in cost cutting and absolutely +no more. +*** +While the $80 billion deal was cut with Baucus' committee, other congressional +committees continued to mark-up their own versions of health care reform without +the knowledge that the White House was relying on Baucus to produce the final +product. In the House of Representatives, the House Energy & Commerce Committee +leveled a direct threat to the $80 billion deal. Energy & Commerce Chair Henry +Waxman sought to include all of the provisions that PhRMA had gotten the White +House and Baucus to cut out of the reform bill. These included drug +reimportation, Medicare negotiating power and speedier release of generics to +the market. According to previous analysis of the measures proposed by the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 +committee, these measures would have totaled hundreds of billions in cost cuts, +far exceeding the $80 billion cap agreed to by the White House, Baucus and +PhRMA. +The cost cutting measures passed in the Energy & Commerce bill spooked the board +of PhRMA, which included all of the CEOs involved in the deal-cutting meetings +with the White House and Baucus. The board pressured Tauzin to go public with +the deal to ensure that the White House would recognize it and not renege. On +August 4, the Los Angeles Times +:es.iatlmes.coa +-1/2009,iaug/04/ iaL.Ion/na: +, in an exclusive report, featured quotes from Tauzin claiming that a deal +between the White House and PhRMA. existed and that as Tauzin put it, ""The White +House blessed it."" Tom Hamburger wrote in the article, ""For his part, Tauzin +said he had not only received the White House pledge to forswear Medicare drug +price bargaining, but also a separate promise not to pursue another proposal +Obama supported during the campaign: importing cheaper drugs from Canada or +Europe."" +The White House's Jim Messina later confirmed Tauzin's claim, stating, ""The +president encouraged this approach ... He wanted to bring all the parties to the +table to discuss health insurance reform."" +Democratic lawmakers were furious. Rep. Raul Grijalva, chairman of the +Progressive Caucus, asked +to the public. +The White House, PhRMA and Baucus still had to fight a few battles to keep the +deal intact. The key amendment targeting the PhRMA deal in committee mark-up +came from Sen. Bill Nelson from Florida, which has one of the largest Medicare +participant populations in the nation. The pull of constituent needs clearly put +Bill Nelson into a position to push for further cost cutting in Medicare +prescription drug pricing. His target: closing the ""donut hole"" completely. +Nelson claimed that his amendment would generate $106 billion in revenue +<4ttp://www,politioo.comilivepuise/0909Ne:Lson PhRMA amendment_ , or +from PhRMA's perspective increase their cost-cutting to $186 billion. That would +be unacceptable to PhRMA, to Baucus, to the White House and to the +pharmaceutical industry who had made the deal. Other Senate Democrats, Tom +Carper and Robert Menendez voted with Republicans and Baucus on the committee to +defeat the amendment +. It is little surprise the Carper's Delaware is home to AstraZeneca and +• +Menendez' New Jersey is home to Merck and Bristol-Myers-Squibb, all of which +lobbied for the $80 billion cap. +Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid introduced the final bill, with the cap in +place, on November 19. Debate began on Dec. 3, and with it come one more attempt +by members to change the terms of the deal. Senator Byron Dorgan introduced an +amendment that would allow for drug re-importation, but as the date for voting +drew near, the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) released a letter + +objecting to the proposal that echoed pharmaceutical industry talking points: +...as currently written, the resulting structure would be logistically +challenging to implement and resource intensive. In addition, there are +significant safety concerns."" Dorgan's amendment was defeated + +with numerous Democrats previously in support of reimportation switching to ""no"" +votes. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767167 Date: 08/31/2015 +On Christmas Eve, the bill passed the Senate with the PhRMA deal fully intact. +* * * +New Year's Eve passed with no further action on health care reform.

Anywhere you go there must be a political debate about +the most effective ways to lead public policy,"" he said referring to what is +expected to happen in 2012. +Asked whether he believed that drug trafficking could directly influence the +presidential election, Pascual stated that the three parties acknowledge that such +threat is present in the municipal level. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767183 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767183 Date: 08/31/2015 +""It's the same whether you talk to the PAN, the PRI, or the PRD, I think there is a +widespread acknowledgement that what organized crime aims for is to take +control at the municipal level to keep their 'black businesses' that will never bring +about anything good,"" he said. +According to Pascual, politicians in Mexico who propose to negotiate with drug +traffickers are a minority, but he warned that negotiating would only lead to more +infiltration of authorities by criminals. +""Obviously we have heard from time to time people suggesting that the best +thing to do is to strike a deal with [drug traffickers] and compromise. But those +are exceptions,"" Pascual pointed out during the meeting that was conducted in +Spanish. +In June 2009, the press scooped an audio file where the then candidate and +current mayor of San Pedro Garza Garcia Mauricio Fernandez allegedly said he +was willing to negotiate with the Beltran Leyva cartel. +""If we compromise we will see more infiltration and that is not a path we can +follow,"" said Pascual about the possibility of negotiating. +The U.S. envoy, born in Cuba in 1961, recognized that in Mexico, one of the +paradoxes most difficult to explain is saying the antidrug policy is successful when +violence is still raging. +""One of the hardest things is explaining in Mexico how the [antidrug] policy is +going forward and being successful when violence is increasing."" Pascual +admitted, ""And it is a superficial contradiction that is hard for everyone to +understand."" +However, the American diplomat noted that even if the Mexican government +stopped targeting drug trafficking organizations, violence would continue because +cartels would still fight among them, and therefore there is no other option but to +push forward. +With the initiative for the FY2011 budget around the corner, Pascual avoided +commenting on the amount the U.S. will offer Mexico for antidrug support in the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767183 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767183 Date: 08/31/2015 +second phase of the Merida Plan [sic] after the $1,351 million in the past three +years. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767183 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3980,C05767184,REPORTERS...,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-02-14T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0065/DOC_0C05767184/C05767184.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Sunday, February 14, 2010 1:39 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767184,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"...Are asking about what the mounting evidence is that Iran is building toward a bomb.

S +Replace Rahm +by Leslie H. Gelb +February 15, 2010 I 10:48pm +I ....7IKristoffer Tripplaar / SPA President Obama desperately needs a sweeping staff shakeup to +save his presidency. Leslie H. Gelb on why he must reassign Rahm, dump Larry Summers, and get rid +of National Security adviser Jim Jones. +The negative, even dismissive, talk about the Obama White House has reached a critical point. The president must +change key personnel now. Unless he speedily sets up a new team, he will be reduced to a speechmaker. It's mostly a +matter of relocating the Chicago and campaign crowd who surround the Oval Office and inserting people with proven +records of getting things done in Washington and the world. +To be fair, it's not clear whether the bad judgments on priorities, practicalities, and steadiness come from Mr. Obama or +his White House team. Maybe he overpowers them in discussions, or maybe he gives them a role in policymaking far +beyond their experience in that realm. Unless you're there, you don't know. But Mr. Obama is the president, and except +for the right-wing crazies, most Americans still recognize his great talents and promise. It is he who's got to be helped. So +it is they who've got to go. +It is he who's got to be helped. So it is they who've got to go. +One may quarrel with my sense of urgency here. But it's hard to have a conversation with opinion leaders anywhere—and +especially in Washington—that doesn't descend into ripping Obama's White House team. The refrain of complaints is +always the same: +• Obama is forever taking strong stances only to backfill and trim. Most recently, he said he did not ""begrudge"" Wall +Streeters their big earnings because that was part of the market system. This, in the face of his saying only a couple of +weeks ago that such big bonuses were ""shameful."" +• Obama doesn't know what's really going on. Regarding the Middle East, he recently said that ""I think it is absolutely true +that what we did this year didn't produce the kind of breakthrough that we wanted, and if we had anticipated some of +these political problems on both sides earlier, we might not have raised expectations as high."" He had to be totally out of it +not to realize that the Palestinians and Israelis were nowhere close to sitting down with each other and dealing. +• Obama wants to get along with everyone so badly he doesn't recognize real opposition when he sees it—let alone know +how to deal with it. He emerges from a meeting with congressional Republican leaders on health-care reform and says he +is ""an eternal optimist—when those very same Republican leaders just told the press that they don't see any common +ground and believe the administration has to ""scrap the bill and start over."" +• It's even hard to follow his latest Afghan policy. He calls Afghanistan a ""war of necessity"" and orders more than 30,000 +new troops there, coupled with an announcement that he'll begin withdrawing some of them in a year plus, only to see +some of his advisers say he will start withdrawals and some say he won't. +I've scribbled similar points in recent months in The Daily Beast. And last week in The Financial Times, Edward Luce +provided a thunderclap on Washington's negative consensus about the incompetence of Obarna's Chicago-laden team. +Luce named names in the White House, and a number of journalists and bloggers strikingly failed to link to the Luce story. +They were said to fear the wrath of the Chicagoans. Steve Clemons, author of The Washington Note, essentially +eridorse.d the Luce finding and slapped his fellow bloggers' wrists for hiding from this issue. The situation is as serious as +it was during the Carter administration. There, two very capable political campaigners--Hamilton Jordan and Jody +Powell—moved into critical White House positions without knowing very much about doing business in Washington. And +they were, quite naturally, too busy to learn. They also added to the ""them"" versus ""us"" (Washington insiders and +bureaucrats versus the regular guys from Georgia) mentality that plagues most administrations. +The Chicagoans and others ""guarding"" the president create their own ""us versus them"" world. It's hard to imagine a policy +conversation between the president and the Chicago crowd, since none of them, except Rahm Emanuel, has Washington +or policy experience. And there isn't much evidence that they bring in strong-minded outsiders to challenge the president +on a regular basis either. The result is an inexperienced president advised by an inexperienced team. +Here are the personnel changes being bruited about in political and policy circles: First, remove Rahm Emanuel as chief +of staff and move him to a senior political adviser slot. No one I've talked to believes he has the management skills and +discipline to run the White House. But he is a terrific political mind and a fighter and should be given the new job and the +time to do his thing. Proven pros who could step right in include the following: Erskine Bowles, president of the University +of North Carolina and former Clinton chief of staff; Leon Panetta, now CIA director and formerly White House chief as well +under Clinton; Sylvia Mathews, a former deputy chief of staff also under Clinton; and John Podesta, another former +Clinton chief who now heads the Center for American Progress. All four are tough and know how to manage. +Replace Lawrence Summers, director of the White House's National Economic Council, with Paul Volcker, the former +chairman of the Federal Reserve. Summers is brilliant and highly controversial; he's been beaten up and is said to want +out anyway. Volcker has unmatched stature, practical experience, and the courage of a lion. He is the only one now in a +position to get down to step-by-step brass tacks on the economy and stop Mr. Obama's weekly gyrations. Others with +proven track records who can help as inside or outside advisers are: Stephen Robert, formerly head of Oppenheimer, +Vincent Mai, former leader of AEA Investors, and Tom Hill of Blackstone. There are also two economic stars in +Washington who'd improve both policymaking and public combat: Sheila Bair, chairwoman of the Federal Deposit +Insurance Corporation, and Elizabeth Warren, chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel. One outside adviser above all +would help the president see the economic hard choices ahead: Peter G. Peterson, accomplished businessman and +policy head. +David Axelrod, the senior political adviser to the president, needs to concentrate on the next presidential campaign, +wherein his expertise lies, and not on domestic and foreign policy, where he is just another smart unknowledgeable voice. +Good replacements who do know the politics of Washington would be the aforementioned Podesta; and Tom Deschle, the +former Democratic Senate Majority Leader. As for David Plouffe, another senior campaign aide, now in unofficial +residence at the White House, he should be lodged in the nearby Executive Office Building. Senior adviser and Chicago +buddy Valerie Jarrett is too much a part of the inner circle to move, but she should be given a more limited role in making +policy. +Mr. Obama's crowd appears to think that getting things done means his giving another speech. It's nice, but not nearly +enough. +Robert Gibbs needs a rest from being press secretary. Let's put it this way: He wasn't born for daily jousts with pithy +Republicans. His job calls for memorable and pointed phrases and attacks, not circle-the-wagon circumlocutions. Possible +successors? Try Doyle McManus of the L.A. Times, Jake Tapper of ABC News, or Helene Cooper of The New York +Times. +Last but not least, James Jones, the National Security Adviser, has to move on. The career Marine was greatly admired +and respected as Commandant of the Corps and as NATO's military chief. He handled those duties with great skill. But by +wide acclamation inside and outside the White House, he has not emerged as a strategist—perhaps the key requirement +of this key position. The person in that job has to pull everything together—laying out achievable objectives and precise +plans to dispense carefully packaged carrots and sticks. One Democrat who could step in now, despite his age, is +Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jimmy Carter's national-security adviser. He has a first-rate strategic mind—a rare quality—and +knows how to deliver results. Obama will need to iron out Zbig's lack of sympathy toward Israel and Russia. +Also available are a boatload of first-class retired diplomats with the judgment and background needed to perform the +National Security Council job effectively. They would be greeted with applause both at home and abroad. Try former +ambassadors Thomas Pickering, Morton Abramowitz, Frank Wisner, Reginald Bartholomew, and Winston Lord. They +have it all. At a minimum, they and others like them should form the core of a group that meets regularly with Obama on +strategy. +Yes, many of the pros suggested above have reached their golden years. But 70 and even 80 are the new 60. They all +possess the necessary energy, experience and rare skill in delivering results. They are also shovel-ready.

S +Replace Rahm +by Leslie H. Gelb +February 15, 2010 I 10:48pm +I ....7IKristoffer Tripplaar / SPA President Obama desperately needs a sweeping staff shakeup to +save his presidency. Leslie H. Gelb on why he must reassign Rahm, dump Larry Summers, and get rid +of National Security adviser Jim Jones. +The negative, even dismissive, talk about the Obama White House has reached a critical point. The president must +change key personnel now. Unless he speedily sets up a new team, he will be reduced to a speechmaker. It's mostly a +matter of relocating the Chicago and campaign crowd who surround the Oval Office and inserting people with proven +records of getting things done in Washington and the world. +To be fair, it's not clear whether the bad judgments on priorities, practicalities, and steadiness come from Mr. Obama or +his White House team. Maybe he overpowers them in discussions, or maybe he gives them a role in policymaking far +beyond their experience in that realm. Unless you're there, you don't know. But Mr. Obama is the president, and except +for the right-wing crazies, most Americans still recognize his great talents and promise. It is he who's got to be helped. So +it is they who've got to go. +It is he who's got to be helped. So it is they who've got to go. +One may quarrel with my sense of urgency here. But it's hard to have a conversation with opinion leaders anywhere—and +especially in Washington—that doesn't descend into ripping Obama's White House team. The refrain of complaints is +always the same: +• Obama is forever taking strong stances only to backfill and trim. Most recently, he said he did not ""begrudge"" Wall +Streeters their big earnings because that was part of the market system. This, in the face of his saying only a couple of +weeks ago that such big bonuses were ""shameful."" +• Obama doesn't know what's really going on. Regarding the Middle East, he recently said that ""I think it is absolutely true +that what we did this year didn't produce the kind of breakthrough that we wanted, and if we had anticipated some of +these political problems on both sides earlier, we might not have raised expectations as high."" He had to be totally out of it +not to realize that the Palestinians and Israelis were nowhere close to sitting down with each other and dealing. +• Obama wants to get along with everyone so badly he doesn't recognize real opposition when he sees it—let alone know +how to deal with it. He emerges from a meeting with congressional Republican leaders on health-care reform and says he +is ""an eternal optimist—when those very same Republican leaders just told the press that they don't see any common +ground and believe the administration has to ""scrap the bill and start over."" +• It's even hard to follow his latest Afghan policy. He calls Afghanistan a ""war of necessity"" and orders more than 30,000 +new troops there, coupled with an announcement that he'll begin withdrawing some of them in a year plus, only to see +some of his advisers say he will start withdrawals and some say he won't. +I've scribbled similar points in recent months in The Daily Beast. And last week in The Financial Times, Edward Luce +provided a thunderclap on Washington's negative consensus about the incompetence of Obarna's Chicago-laden team. +Luce named names in the White House, and a number of journalists and bloggers strikingly failed to link to the Luce story. +They were said to fear the wrath of the Chicagoans. Steve Clemons, author of The Washington Note, essentially +eridorse.d the Luce finding and slapped his fellow bloggers' wrists for hiding from this issue. The situation is as serious as +it was during the Carter administration. There, two very capable political campaigners--Hamilton Jordan and Jody +Powell—moved into critical White House positions without knowing very much about doing business in Washington. And +they were, quite naturally, too busy to learn. They also added to the ""them"" versus ""us"" (Washington insiders and +bureaucrats versus the regular guys from Georgia) mentality that plagues most administrations. +The Chicagoans and others ""guarding"" the president create their own ""us versus them"" world. It's hard to imagine a policy +conversation between the president and the Chicago crowd, since none of them, except Rahm Emanuel, has Washington +or policy experience. And there isn't much evidence that they bring in strong-minded outsiders to challenge the president +on a regular basis either. The result is an inexperienced president advised by an inexperienced team. +Here are the personnel changes being bruited about in political and policy circles: First, remove Rahm Emanuel as chief +of staff and move him to a senior political adviser slot. No one I've talked to believes he has the management skills and +discipline to run the White House. But he is a terrific political mind and a fighter and should be given the new job and the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767202 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767202 Date: 08/31/2015 +time to do his thing. Proven pros who could step right in include the following: Erskine Bowles, president of the University +of North Carolina and former Clinton chief of staff; Leon Panetta, now CIA director and formerly White House chief as well +under Clinton; Sylvia Mathews, a former deputy chief of staff also under Clinton; and John Podesta, another former +Clinton chief who now heads the Center for American Progress. All four are tough and know how to manage. +Replace Lawrence Summers, director of the White House's National Economic Council, with Paul Volcker, the former +chairman of the Federal Reserve. Summers is brilliant and highly controversial; he's been beaten up and is said to want +out anyway. Volcker has unmatched stature, practical experience, and the courage of a lion. He is the only one now in a +position to get down to step-by-step brass tacks on the economy and stop Mr. Obama's weekly gyrations. Others with +proven track records who can help as inside or outside advisers are: Stephen Robert, formerly head of Oppenheimer, +Vincent Mai, former leader of AEA Investors, and Tom Hill of Blackstone. There are also two economic stars in +Washington who'd improve both policymaking and public combat: Sheila Bair, chairwoman of the Federal Deposit +Insurance Corporation, and Elizabeth Warren, chair of the Congressional Oversight Panel. One outside adviser above all +would help the president see the economic hard choices ahead: Peter G. Peterson, accomplished businessman and +policy head. +David Axelrod, the senior political adviser to the president, needs to concentrate on the next presidential campaign, +wherein his expertise lies, and not on domestic and foreign policy, where he is just another smart unknowledgeable voice. +Good replacements who do know the politics of Washington would be the aforementioned Podesta; and Tom Deschle, the +former Democratic Senate Majority Leader. As for David Plouffe, another senior campaign aide, now in unofficial +residence at the White House, he should be lodged in the nearby Executive Office Building. Senior adviser and Chicago +buddy Valerie Jarrett is too much a part of the inner circle to move, but she should be given a more limited role in making +policy. +Mr. Obama's crowd appears to think that getting things done means his giving another speech. It's nice, but not nearly +enough. +Robert Gibbs needs a rest from being press secretary. Let's put it this way: He wasn't born for daily jousts with pithy +Republicans. His job calls for memorable and pointed phrases and attacks, not circle-the-wagon circumlocutions. Possible +successors? Try Doyle McManus of the L.A. Times, Jake Tapper of ABC News, or Helene Cooper of The New York +Times. +Last but not least, James Jones, the National Security Adviser, has to move on. The career Marine was greatly admired +and respected as Commandant of the Corps and as NATO's military chief. He handled those duties with great skill. But by +wide acclamation inside and outside the White House, he has not emerged as a strategist—perhaps the key requirement +of this key position. The person in that job has to pull everything together—laying out achievable objectives and precise +plans to dispense carefully packaged carrots and sticks. One Democrat who could step in now, despite his age, is +Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jimmy Carter's national-security adviser. He has a first-rate strategic mind—a rare quality—and +knows how to deliver results. Obama will need to iron out Zbig's lack of sympathy toward Israel and Russia. +Also available are a boatload of first-class retired diplomats with the judgment and background needed to perform the +National Security Council job effectively. They would be greeted with applause both at home and abroad. Try former +ambassadors Thomas Pickering, Morton Abramowitz, Frank Wisner, Reginald Bartholomew, and Winston Lord. They +have it all. At a minimum, they and others like them should form the core of a group that meets regularly with Obama on +strategy. +Yes, many of the pros suggested above have reached their golden years. But 70 and even 80 are the new 60. They all +possess the necessary energy, experience and rare skill in delivering results. They are also shovel-ready. As a critical +bonus, they could and would mentor the next generation down, a very talented one indeed, to succeed them in two or +three years. To lead America and the world, Obama has to grow far beyond his present propensity to treat problems as +intellectual puzzles—to collect facts and hear the arguments. The great tasks of governing demand proven intuition in +sensing what's achievable, which buttons to push when, how to buy the time for power to take hold, how to make +adjustments without flagrantly foolish rhetoric, how to avoid failures that only diminish power, and how to succeed in small +as well as large ways.

The Dalai Lama, Tibet's spiritual leader, goes to Washington, +DC, this week and will sit down with President Barack Obanna for the first time on Thursday February 18th. +American presidents have long been happy to meet the Tibetan leader and to tolerate subsequent angry +huffing from China, not least as a means of responding to public concern over human rights without doing +anything serious to jeopardise trade or other ties with Beijing. +But in Mr Obama's case, with China increasingly assertive internationally and the American president +perceived in many quarters as cautious, even timid, in foreign policy, the encounter with the Dalai Lama +has assumed extra significance. Mr Obama will be studied closely. Human-rights activists will listen with +care to the language that the American president uses, straining to hear whether he goes further than +merely suggesting more dialogue between Tibetans and the Chinese leadership. Might the president dare +to deliver real criticism of repression and human-rights abuses in Tibet? +Kenneth Roth, the head of Human Rights Watch, an activist group in New York, offers a mixed assessment +of Mr Obama's foreign policy so far in its treatment of human rights. He suggests that no other recent +American leader has taken such care with his rhetoric, judging how it is received by the rest of the world. +But substantial steps too rarely follow Mr Obama's fine words.

But Mr Roth sees little evidence of a leader who is prepared then to press reluctant regimes, as +for example did Ronald Reagan (and before him, Jimmy Carter) in pushing the Soviet Union to sign up to +an international commitment, the Helsinki Final Act, which promoted individual rights. +Mr Obama's foreign-policy approach of seeking engagement with opponents such as Iran, in an effort to +establish dialogue and more effective diplomatic channels, has made it harder for him to beat the human- +rights drum loudly. But by failing to speak up about repression, the American leader risks being perceived +as weak. His muted reaction to the rigged presidential elections in Iran and the violent repression that +followed (and continues) has seemed deferential. His eagerness to ""reset"" relations with Russia, for +example by scrapping a planned anti-missile defence shield in eastern Europe, has coincided with near +total silence over the murders of journalists and the clamping down on democracy in that country. It is +unclear, in either case, that biting his tongue has brought any gains from the respective regimes. +Particularly troubling has been America's attitude to China and human rights. After Hillary Clinton's first +visit to China as secretary of state, in February 2009, she announced that concern over human rights +should not ""interfere"" with getting co-operation on other issues such as climate change and the global +economy. Human-rights defenders were deflated. Mr Obama then avoided meeting the Dalai Lama when +he visited America in September and postponed a scheduled meeting in October, to avoid upsetting the +government in China ahead of a presidential visit. During Mr Obama's subsequent visit to China, he made +few and limited comments on human rights. The Chinese government responded by becoming more +assertive. It helped to scupper a deal at the Copenhagen summit on climate change in December and +snubbed the American president by sending a deputy minister to a crucial meeting. China has generally +proven to be increasingly unwilling to co-operate with America, for example over United Nations sanctions +against Iran. +The administration, however, may now be toughening up. American rhetoric over Iran has become firmer. +On Monday Mrs Clinton warned that a military dictatorship was emerging in Tehran. Relations with China, +too, have become frostier, for example over a long-planned (and routine) decision by the American +government to sell weapons to Taiwan. Mrs Clinton has also spoken up more forcefully about the need for +internet freedom in China, in the wake of sophisticated cyber-attacks on Google that many believe had +Chinese government fingerprints on them. This week's meeting with the Dalai Lama is thus a moment to +demonstrate that Mr Obama is ready both to signal his concern for human rights and that his foreign- +policy is becoming more assertive. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767207 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3994,C05767208,PRAYER BREAKFAST REMARKS WILL BE FAXED TO HOUSE IN 15 MINUTES,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-02-03T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0062/DOC_0C05767208/C05767208.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Prayer breakfast remarks will be faxed to house in 15 minutes,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Wednesday, February 3, 2010 8:27 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767208,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Actually binder almost ready so speech is coming in binder,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767208 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Wednesday, February 3, 2010 8:27 PM +To: +Subject Re: Prayer breakfast remarks will be faxed to house in 15 minutes +Actually binder almost ready so speech is coming in binder +Original Message +From: Abedin, Huma +To: ihdr22@clintonemail.comt +Sent: Wed Feb 03 20:23:47 2010 +Subject: Prayer breakfast remarks will be faxed to house in 15 minutes +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767208 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +3995,C05767213,H: IRAN.

The iron fist in the velvet glove approach achieves several objectives: +According to Fischer's intelligence, Ahmanijehad wished some negotiated settlement but was blocked. The +regime has splits at the top. Perhaps true, perhaps not. But constantly pushing negotiations alongside sanctions +puts additional pressure on internal divisions, whatever they are. Extending an open hand while brandishing a +stick closes diplomatic and political room to maneuver for Iran: Its refusal to accept the open hand justifies +application of the stick. Even when sanctions are enforced it always remains useful to say another way is open. +The damage done to Iran is therefore the result of its own choice. This approach also aids the opposition. A +purely condign sanctions strategy can contribute to the regime's will to punish and tighten repression. Talking +of regime change, of course, undermines the cause of regime change. It is a gift to the regime. The opposition is +a new factor in the Iran equation that must be taken into account on the political and moral level. Pushed to the +wall, the regime may feel compelled to repress, which might involve thousands or tens of thousands of political +killings. On Saudi Arabia, Fischer points out that if Iran develops nuclear weaponry the Saudis already have +their own bomb.

Rejects 'Militarization' of Afghan Aid (NYT, Nordland) +By ROD NORDLAND +Published: February 18, 2010 KABUL, Afghanistan -Senior United Nations officials +in Afghanistan on Wednesday criticized NATO forces for what one referred to as +""the militarization of humanitarian aid,"" and said United Nations agencies would +not participate in the military's reconstruction strategy in Marja as part of its +current offensive there. ""We are not part of that process, we do not want to be +part of it,"" said Robert Watkins, the deputy special representative of the +secretary general, at a news conference attended by other officials to announce +the United Nations' Humanitarian Action Plan for 2010. ""We will not be part of +that military strategy."" The American commander in Afghanistan, Gen. Stanley A. +McChrystal, has made the rapid delivery of governmental services, including +education, health care and job programs, a central part of his strategy in Marja, +referring to plans to rapidly deploy what he has referred to as ""a government in +a box"" once Marja is pacified. Mr. Watkins did not specifically criticize the +Marja offensive, saying, ""It is not the military that will be delivering the +services, they will be clearing the area so the government can deliver those +services."" However, the United Nations would not be participating, he said. Wael +Haj-Ibrahim, head of the United Nations' Office for the Coordination of +Humanitarian Affairs here, said the military should not be involved in providing +health care or schools. ""If that aid is being delivered as part of a military +strategy, the counterstrategy is to destroy that aid,"" Mr. Haj-Ibrahim said. +""Allowing the military to do it is not the best use of resources."" Instead, he +said, the military should confine itself to clearing an area of security threats +and providing security for humanitarian organizations to deliver services. ""The +distribution of aid by the military gives a very difficult impression to the +communities and puts the lives of humanitarian workers at risk,"" Mr. Watkins +said. Last month, eight leading humanitarian organizations working in +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767257 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767257 Date: 08/31/2015 +Afghanistan, including Oxfam and ActionAid, issued a joint report that was highly +critical of the International Security Assistance Force, as the American-led NATO +force is known, because of ""the international militaries' use of aid as a +'nonlethal' weapon of war."" They maintained that this violated an agreement +between international forces and the United Nations that the military's primary +role should be to provide security and, only when there is no other alternative, +to provide limited developmental and humanitarian assistance. The agencies +maintain they are able to work in conflict areas of Afghanistan when local +residents see them as independent and not connected with the military, and this +approach puts that at risk. ""Military-led humanitarian and development activities +are driven by donors' political interests and short-term security objectives and +are often ineffective, wasteful and potentially harmful to Afghans,"" a statement +by Oxfam said. The United Nations officials expressed the same concern, though +more diplomatically, and one official, who did not want to be quoted by name +because of the political sensitivity of the issue, said the United Nations had +repeatedly raised those concerns with the international forces without success. +The American military refers to its strategy, first enunciated in Iraq in 2006, +as ""clear, hold and build."" Previously there were insufficient foreign and Afghan +troops in Afghanistan to pursue that strategy systematically because they were +unable to hold large areas for long periods of time. The offensive in Marja is +intended as a showcase where the strategy can work, and the coalition says it has +adequate forces now to do that. ""Clear, hold and build, it's short-sighted for +two reasons,"" the United Nations official said. ""Territory changes hands in a +conflict, and if the services are associated with a particular group, it will be +destroyed."" That has happened often with projects like schools and clinics around +the country. The officials were particularly critical of NATO's planned ""civilian +surge,"" bringing in more government-financed aid workers involved in projects +like the country's provincial reconstruction teams, which are located in each +province and designed to provide fast-track development and aid services in their +areas. These reconstruction teams are NATO groups run by various allied +countries, including Canada in Kandahar, and Britain in Lashkar Gah, and they +primarily disburse development and aid money locally in each province.Many of the +reconstruction teams, the official said, see their role as providing services in +exchange for intelligence-gathering and political activity directed against the +insurgents. He declined to identify any that operate under that premise, although +he added that not all did so. In many parts of the country, only nongovernmental +organizations are able to operate safely because of the security situation, and +they fill the gap in governmental services. Because the reconstruction teams are +run by foreigners and are associated with their countries' militaries, they need +to go out with heavy security, and aid groups worry that locals begin to +associate all aid workers with the military. Oxfam said the military ""was going +way beyond its remit"" in Afghanistan, citing an American Army counterinsurgency +manual that defines humanitarian aid as a ""nonlethal weapon.""A statement issued +Wednesday by the international forces emphasized the military's new, population- +centered approach to fighting the insurgents. ""The conduct of Operation Moshtarak +is visibly demonstrating that the force has changed the way it operates and that +it is working with and for the people of Afghanistan,"" the statement said, +referring to the Marja offensive. It also suggested the military phase of the +operation could be protracted.

But some State Department bureaucrats privately gripe about what they see as Steinberg's +sometimes intrusive style, and some of his policy proposals have been seen as poorly coordinated with the +other parts of the policy community. ""He's a brilliant guy, but just not a great fit for that job,"" said one +administration source. +According to two sources familiar with the process, Steinberg has met with the Georgetown search +committee and expressed an interest in applying for the job. The search committee has also met with +individuals close to Steinberg, to hear their recommendations for him. Sources said the search committee +is still narrowing the candidate list and conducting interviews, before making any recommendations to the +university president. +When asked if he was a candidate for the job by The Cable, Steinberg said by email, ""It would be news to +me."" +The leading contender, according to insiders, is the current acting Dean Carol Lancaster. A graduate of +the School of Foreign Service herself, Lancaster was once deputy administrator of USAID and is a tenured +professor there now. Other potential candidates, according to sources, include former Undersecretary of +State Nicholas Burns, Princeton University professor Tom Christensen, and former State Department +official Marc Grossman. Grossman told The Cable he was contacted about the job, but he is not a +candidate. The others did not respond to requests for comment. +""Carol has brilliantly checked boxes,"" said Robert Gallucci, the immediate past dean, who now heads the +MacArthur Foundation after stepping down from the School of Foreign Service after 13 years. Gallucci +worked with Lancaster on the State Department's policy planning staff under Anthony Lake, another +Georgetown professor. +Gallucci is not part of the search committee, but talked with The Cable about the process and what the +school might be looking for. +""It's a wonderful, challenging job with great opportunity to impact young people who will be in positions of +leadership in the international sphere,"" Gallucci said, adding, ""Somebody who had success in the policy +world, more likely in government service, could bring something special to the shaping of these minds and +the atmosphere of this school."" +Kim Min-Hee-pool/Getty Images +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767278 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4038,C05767279,CHELSEA CLINTON PHOTOS,H,"McHale, Judith A",105,2010-02-19T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0066/DOC_0C05767279/C05767279.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Chelsea Clinton photos,,"McHale, Judith A ","Sreebny, Daniel","Friday, February 19, 2010 10:37 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767279,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767279 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: McHale, Judith A +Sent: Friday, February 19, 2010 10:37 PM +To: +Subject FW: Chelsea Clinton photos +Attachments: CClinton1JPG; CClintonJPG +fyi +From: Dickson, John S +Sent: Friday, February 19, 2010 9:46 PM +To: McHale, Judith A; DiMartino, Kitty +Cc: Sreebny, Daniel +Subject: Chelsea Clinton photos +A couple of photos of Chelsea who was here today. +Full rights - US Navy +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767279 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4039,C05767280,CHELSEA CLINTON PHOTOS,H,"McHale, Judith A",105,2010-02-20T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0066/DOC_0C05767280/C05767280.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: Chelsea Clinton photos,H,"McHale, Judith A ",,"Saturday, February 20, 2010 8:20 AM",F-2014-20439,C05767280,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"More photos.

Serajul Islam +MS. Judith A McHale, US Under Secretary of State for Public Affairs, who was recently in Dhaka, is the senior most +ranking US Government official to visit Bangladesh since President Obama took office in USA and Sheikh Hasina in +Bangladesh. During her public engagements, she made some remarks that are very encouraging for Bangladesh. In +Dhaka University she said that US would take 20,000 students every year from Bangladesh where at the moment, the +intake is far fewer. +The Under Secretary made more encouraging remarks when she addressed Madrassah students of Uttar Badda Islamia +Kamil Madrassah. When a student informed her that Madrassah educated students are seldom given US visa for +education, she said categorically that US doors are open to Madrassah educated students of Banagladesh. She also said +that the US Embassy is providing teachers for teaching English in Madrassahs and her Government ""is proud to be +working with the Madrassah."" She also said that religious leadership is a key to the success of socio-economic +development efforts. Her most positive remark was her belief that Bangladesh could assist the US to bridge its gap with +the Muslim world. +The Under Secretary however did not say how many Madrassah students who would be given visa annually as she did +for the general students. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767282 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767282 Date: 08/31/2015 +This notwithstanding, the fact that a senior Obama administration official has publicly made positive remarks for the +Madrassah educated students and role of Islam in society is very significant. Her statement came on the back of a +number of other initiatives that the US Government has taken in Bangladesh to work with the Madrasahs. The US +Government is working with a number of NGOs to sensitize Madrassah students on democracy, information and +communication technology, etc. +This is a significant change in US stance on Bangladesh. Not very long ago, the US Ambassador to Bangladesh Harry +Thomas was crying hoarse about religious fundamentalism in Bangladesh; that was dismissed by the BNP Government. +The Awami League went overboard to spread the news that Bangladesh was seething with religious fundamentalism, +even labeling the BNP Government as ""Taliban"". Early in 2006, the US Assistant Secretary for South Asia, Ms. Christina +Rocco, on an official visit to Bangladesh, strongly advised the Government that it had no choice but to rein in the +religious fundamentalists, that later led to the arrests of Bangla Bhai and the JMB terrorists. The BNP Government +arrested religious terrorists in a make believe manner that was a far cry from the dangerous portrayal about them in the +media and by the opposition, when they were at the height of their criminal activities. +The meekness of their surrender and their execution under the Caretaker Government without any repercussion from +their cadres who were supposed to on the verge of capturing power by force left no doubt that the case of religious +extremists in Bangladesh was over politicised and overstated. They raised their ugly face in no uncertain terms because +the BNP Government indulged and encouraged them. The national elections in December 2008, in which over 20 million +first time voters entered the election process further sealed the nation's contempt for political parties in Bangladesh +that use religion for achieving their ends. In fact, even the BNP found the religion based parties a political liability in the +last elections when the biggest of the religion based parties in Bangladesh, the Jamat-e-Islami could manage just 2 seats. +Although the parties that have used religion for politics have been historically rejected by voters in Bangladesh, +interestingly Islam as a religion has made significant inroads into the lives of the overwhelming majority of its people +since independence. There are many reasons for this that is outside the scope of this writing. This spread of Islam, unlike +in many other countries, is still tampered by liberal traditions embedded in the history of the religion in this part of the +world where Sufism has played a major role. Nevertheless, the resurgence of Islam in Bangladesh also faces the dangers +of evolving in the opposition direction. It is an issue that must be dealt with the utmost caution to deter Bangladesh +from following Algeria or Afghanistan. +Soon after the Awami League came to power early last year, a vested group was busy spreading distorted information to +create public opinion against the Qoami Madrasahs (QM) and calling for restoration of secularism by removing Islam +from public life. A World Bank Report later trashed the propaganda against QM, one that suggested that under BNP +Government 35% soldiers recruited were from QM. There was a period of lull in the campaign of this group against Islam +based political parties and the Madrasahs after the WB report, although the report may not have been alone responsible +for the lull.. The annulment of the fifth amendment of the constitution, the war trial criminals that would involve mostly +the Jamat; and the recent activities of Jamat's student cadre in the universities have re-activated the move. A section is +claiming the restoration of the 1972 constitution to ban the Jamat. +Ms Judith McHale's visit is very significant in the present context of Bangladesh's politics. Unlike Ms Christina Rocco's +visit in early 2006, she did not sound any alarm bells for Bangladesh on the issue of religious fundamentalism. To the +contrary, her visit to the Madrassah, together with the initiatives of her Government to work with the Madrasahs of +Bangladesh by providing them with modern educational tools are positive signs that US is not worried about 'religious +fundamentalism' in Bangladesh and that it even visualises a role for Bangladesh to help it reach out more towards the +Muslim world. Some months ago, the US Government dropped the name of Bangladesh from the watch list of countries +where religious freedom is at stake. This is another indication that religious fundamentalism in Bangladesh is on the +decline in US perception +The author is a former Ambassador to Japan and Director, Centre for Foreign Affairs Studies +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767282 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4041,C05767284,FOLLOWUP,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-02-20T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0066/DOC_0C05767284/C05767284.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Followup,,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Saturday, February 20, 2010 9:36 AM",F-2014-20439,C05767284,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"He was scheduled to talk to Ryabkov this am to talk through resolution elements and to check in on missile defense, etc. +I will follow up.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767284 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Saturday, February 20, 2010 9:36 AM +To: +Subject Re: Followup +He was scheduled to talk to Ryabkov this am to talk through resolution elements and to check in on missile defense, etc. +I will follow up. +Original Message +From: H +To: Sullivan, Jacob +Sent: Sat Feb 20 09:32:29 2010 +Subject: Followup +I'd like to know about Bill Burns's call w Russians today about both Iran and Start.

""We want to ensure reconstruction goes beyond immediate efforts. We have an +opportunity to bring about the renaissance of Haiti, not just to return to where we were before the disaster struck."" +On Jan. 12, Haiti was struck by an earthquake measuring 7.3 on the Richter scale, which killed at least 200,000 people +and destroyed numerous homes, workplaces, infrastructure and government buildings. +Mexican President Felipe Calderon, who formally opened the summit on Sunday afternoon, said Haiti would be a top +priority, adding that the summit would also discuss boosting trade and growth across the Caribbean region, protecting +and developing tourism, boosting regional security, and tackling climate change. He said that Mexico was committed to +the region. +""Mexico is a nation that is Caribbean nation, powerfully Caribbean,"" Calderon said. ""As such Mexico takes on its +responsibility of participating actively in the region's development."" +During his speech, Haitian President Rene Preval said that as many as 300,000 people may have died in the devastating +quake last month. +""More than 200,000 bodies have been recovered from the streets, (and) with those under the rubble that figure could +reach 300,000, "" he said. Preval also thanked the host Mexico for all the aid it had provided for Haiti's earthquake +victims. +""Haiti's friends realize that Haiti's true development cannot be built on aid, but must be based on investment,"" Preval +said, adding that the nation needs ""not rebuilding but refounding."" +""We need a more just nation that is not focused on Port-au- Prince where the political and economic elite live,"" he +stressed. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767331 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767331 Date: 08/31/2015 +He also urged all those present to help the 1.5 million Haitians who he estimated were sleeping in the streets because +their homes were wrecked on Jan. 12. ""The first rains that have begun to fall have already made all dignified living +impossible,"" he said, also warning that worse is to come when Haiti's rainy season begins in April. +The Mexico-Caricom Summit held on Sunday will be followed on Monday by a two-day Group of Rio Summit. Haiti is +both a Rio and Caricom member. During the Rio meeting, Mexico is set to propose that the Group be expanded into a +broader organization that brings together the 24-nation Group of Rio and 15-nation Caricom.

Gelb's call for White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel to +be reassigned spurred a circle-the-wagons reaction from pro- (or perhaps even anti-) Rahm forces. +Gelb sifts the fallout for clues. +When you write that the president of the United States should replace his chief of staff, someone will fire back. So it was +that Rahm Emanuel apparently struck back at my piece last week on the Daily Beast through a column in Sunday's +Washington Post. Only this time, the return fire had a rare twist, one that could produce Washington convulsions. It was +seemingly aimed at me (and others who published suggestions of Emanuel's limitations as chief). But whether it was +intentional or not, the volley actually struck the president himself. +Here is the story, a very Washington tale of stretching permissible criticism of power holders, of pungent media leaks, of +labyrinthine speculation as to who is doing what to whom. +Maybe the leaker thought the way to get rid of Rahm completely was to brand him as a ""traitor"" to the boss. +With a headline ""Replace Rahm,"" I wrote last Tuesday that Emanuel lacked the managerial skills, discipline, and strategic +ability to get things done as chief of staff. I argued he should be moved over to a political adviser slot, where his +considerable, can-do talents would better serve his boss. I targeted others as well, mostly in Mr. Obama's Chicago crowd. +Several writers also blasted this crowd, mostly with unsigned bullets, but never crossed the red line calling for their +removal. I wrote the piece because it essentially reflected the waves of anti-White House staff critiques breaking over +Washington, but rarely heard outside its drawing rooms. I did it because I believed the president was running out of +chances to succeed and needed better and tougher staffers. I did it because if he failed, the nation failed. +Then came the inevitable blast back, a devastating leak, in a piece by Dana Milbank, a respected Washington journalist. +Interesting that the leaker selected Milbank. He's sort of a half-reporter, half-columnist who roams the entire capital city, +not just the White House. The leaker must have felt safe because Milbank has so many sources all over town, making the +leakers harder to trace. +The Milbank headline read: ""Why Obama needs Rahm at the top."" It began: ""Let us now praise Rahm Emanuel. No, +seriously."" Then, he lists me and a couple others who also criticized Rahm. ""But,"" he continued, ""sacking Emanuel is the +last thing the president should do."" +Then, Milbank (and presumably the leaker) delivered the surprise and wounding blow – to the president himself. ""Obama's +first year fell apart in large part because he didn't follow his chief of staffs advice on crucial matters. Arguably, Emanuel is +the only person keeping Obama from becoming Jimmy Carter."" +Then, Milbank (and the leaker) took his first shot, not at me, but at congressional liberals and everyone in the Chicago +crowd except Rahm. ""Obama's problem,"" Milbank continued, ""is that his other confidants—particularly Valerie Jarrett and +Robert Gibbs, and, to a lesser extent, David Axelrod—are part of the Cult of Obama. In love with the president, they +believe he is a transformational figure who needn't dirty his hands in politics."" +So, it was ""their"" fault—until you see the real blow landed beyond them and on the President himself. ""The president +would have been better off heeding Emanuel's counsel,"" but instead ""overruled"" him on several key Rahm +recommendations: not rushing to close Guantanamo and bringing terrorists to U.S. prisons, not trying Khalid Sheikh +Mohammed in New York, and going for a smaller health care bill focused on popular items with Republican support. ""The +result was,"" Milbank wrote, ""as the world now knows, disastrous."" In other words, Mr. Obama could have thrived and +saved himself on key issues had he only listened to Rahm. +It sure looks like Rahm (or someone near and dear to him) trying to save himself at the president's expense. This is an +incredibly unusual leak, seemingly a chief of staff undermining his own boss, the president. Worse, it details specific +advice Rahm personally gave Mr. Obama in the absolute privacy of the Oval Office. Presidents go crazy at such breaches +of confidence. +Which is why another possibility has to be considered: that Rahm was not the leaker. The leak was so egregious, so anti- +Chicago crowd minus Rahm, so devastating to the president, that Emanuel couldn't have been stupid enough to leak a +story where he was the sole, surviving hero. Remember, too, that my piece did not recommend kicking Rahm out of the +White House, just sliding him over into a political adviser job where he could practice small-bite pragmatism. Maybe +someone didn't want Rahm around the White House at all, in any position. Maybe the leaker thought the way to get rid of +Rahm completely was to brand him as a ""traitor"" to the boss. Maybe the leaker belonged to that contingent of self- +mutilating liberal Democrats who have always viewed Rahm as too centrist and pragmatic. +Of course, I don't know what's afoot. And of course, Milbank put his own views into his own article. But someone gave him +the specifics, the precious ammunition about Rahm's private advice to Mr. Obama. The story is not over. +Leslie H. Gelb, a former New York Times columnist and senior government official, is author of Power Rules: How +Common Sense Can Rescue American Foreign Policy (HarperCollins 2009), a book that shows how to think about and +use power in the 21st century.

""The president +would have been better off heeding Emanuel's counsel,"" but instead ""overruled"" him on several key Rahm +recommendations: not rushing to close Guantanamo and bringing terrorists to U.S. prisons, not trying Khalid Sheikh +Mohammed in New York, and going for a smaller health care bill focused on popular items with Republican support. ""The +result was,"" Milbank wrote, ""as the world now knows, disastrous."" In other words, Mr. Obama could have thrived and +saved himself on key issues had he only listened to Rahm. +It sure looks like Rahm (or someone near and dear to him) trying to save himself at the president's expense. This is an +incredibly unusual leak, seemingly a chief of staff undermining his own boss, the president. Worse, it details specific +advice Rahm personally gave Mr. Obama in the absolute privacy of the Oval Office. Presidents go crazy at such breaches +of confidence. +Which is why another possibility has to be considered: that Rahm was not the leaker. The leak was so egregious, so anti- +Chicago crowd minus Rahm, so devastating to the president, that Emanuel couldn't have been stupid enough to leak a +story where he was the sole, surviving hero. Remember, too, that my piece did not recommend kicking Rahm out of the +White House, just sliding him over into a political adviser job where he could practice small-bite pragmatism.

Maybe the leaker thought the way to get rid of +Rahm completely was to brand him as a ""traitor"" to the boss. Maybe the leaker belonged to that contingent of self- +mutilating liberal Democrats who have always viewed Rahm as too centrist and pragmatic. +Of course, I don't know what's afoot.

In return, the DUP has secured reforms to the way loyalist marches are handled in Northern Ireland, including +the abolition of the Parades Commission, a body most unionists regard as biased in favour of nationalists. +A cross-community vote will now be held in the Stormont assembly on 9 March before the policing and justice powers +are devolved from London on 12 April. +Brown told reporters: ""The achievements have been as great as they are inspirational.

""We have not had sight of this agreement and until we do we will not be signing up to it,"" she said. +The talks, which centred on Hillsborough Castle, outside Belfast, are the longest set of continuous negotiations held in +the near 20-year peace process. Sinn Fein had accused the DUP of stalling on the transfer of policing powers for the last +three years and it was feared that failure to find agreement could see the collapse of the power-sharing government led +by the two parties. +The agreement finally came near midnight at Stormont's parliament building.

The ISI is playing a +very important role in the national security of Pakistan, but a policy changes with a change in the +circumstances under which it was formulated. At that time, the Taliban were being considered as friends of +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767363 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767363 Date: 08/31/2015 +Pakistan but later they became a potential threat to our national security. Hence, we were left with no other +option but to abandon them. +Host: What was wrong with the Kerry-Lugar Bill? Why was it so vehemently opposed by the Pakistani masses +and the armed forces? As the Ambassador of Pakistan, had you expressed any reservations and concerns +during the preparation of this legislation? +Hussain Haqqani: During the drafting of the Kerry-Lugar Bill, I sent as many as 35 telegrams to the Foreign +Office and other concerned institutions including the armed forces. I was against attaching even a single string +to this aid package, and urged that all the assistance for Pakistan should be unconditional. Americans wanted +us to hand Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan over to them for investigation but we made it clear that it would never be +possible for us, and that this chapter had been closed. Similarly, we rejected the U.S. demand to link the aid +with the performance of our institutions. +Host: But at that time, you said that the Pakistanis had failed to understand the benefits of Kerry-Lugar Bill +because they do not know English language. +Hussain Haqqani: It was just a joke. However, I want to make it clear that the Kerry-Lugar Bill is a U.S. +legislation. It is not an agreement between the two countries and, therefore, is not binding upon us. +Host: Do you think that a donor country has the right to monitor the performance of the national institutions +of the recipient country? +Hussain Haqqani: During the visit of Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi, the explanatory note by the +U.S. Congress diluted this condition. +Host: According to some reports, you have issued visas to the Blackwater personnel and some other +Americans who pose a threat to our national security while the Pakistani intelligence agencies had expressed +reservations in this regard. +Hussain Haqqani: It is a grave misunderstanding. Everyone knows that the issuance of visas is not the +prerogative of an ambassador. The interior ministry gives approval for working visas which also consults the +military authorities on certain issues relating to the security of the country. So far, I have never interfered in +any visa case. I utilize all my energies to lobby for Pakistan. The DynaCorp was allowed to work in Pakistan, +and its owner is a close friend of former President Pervez Musharraf. +Host: Presently, how many U.S. security agencies are operating in Pakistan? +Hussain Haqqani: I think that that DynaCorp and Wakenhut are working in the country but there is no +evidence regarding the presence of other companies. +Host: Will the U.S. give us drone technology? +Hussain Haqqani: Currently, they are offering drone technology for surveillance purposes. +Host: The drone attacks in Pakistan kill innocent people including women and children.

These U.S. dignitaries also go the GHQ in Rawalpindi and meet with +high-ranking military officials. Which institution is the actual policy-maker in Pakistan? +Mushahid Hussain: I think the regional geopolitical situation has changed, and still changing, in Pakistan's +favor. The U.S. economy and Afghanistan are the two cornerstones of President Barack Obama's strategy. For +the former, he needs china's help, and for the latter he depends upon Pakistan. Now, instead of G-7, the G-2, +China and the United States, has become the focus of international economic discussion. It means that, for the +first time, Washington has recognized Beijing as an equal partner, at least in the economic sector. China is our +time-tested friend, in other words, the regional situation is changing in our favor. The present Pakistani +government is incompetent and has no strategy to skillfully use this opportunity. Hence, I do not think that the +Americans will support it. +Host: The U.S. has been entangled in the Afghan quagmire. There are reports that the U.S. negotiating with +the Taliban. Has the U.S. taken Saudi Arabia and Pakistan on board, or it is directly talking to the Taliban? +Hameed Gul: At present, no dialogue is underway between Taliban and the U.S., neither directly nor indirectly, +because Washington has refused to give the deadline for withdrawal of its troops from Afghanistan. In fact, +India is exerting pressure on the U.S. to avoid withdrawing its troops because New Delhi has invested sums in +Afghanistan. Besides, it has also strategic interests there. But Americans can no longer afford to continue their +military presence in this country therefore India fear that it would be the prime loser in case the foreign forces +withdraw from Afghanistan. The U.S. military defeat at the hands of the Taliban has provided Pakistan a +golden opportunity. To face the Indian threat, we are in dire need of a safe and peaceful border in our west. +Mushahid Hussain: We need to be very careful at this moment. Our blind support for the Afghan Taliban may +alienate Iran, Turkey and China, all our best friends, who fear that the establishment of a extremist religious +regime will have serious repercussions for their own security. To avoid such an eventuality, these countries +may opt to join the Indian camp. Hence, we will have to take all the stakeholders on board while formulating +our future strategy regarding the post-war Afghanistan. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767363 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767363 Date: 08/31/2015 +Program: ""Jawab Deyh"" Geo TV (02/21) +Host: lftikhar Ahmed +Participants: Lt. Gen (R) Nishat Ahmed (Defense Analyst); Dr Hassan Askari (Analyst) +Topic: U.S. Role In Pak-India Dialogue +Host: It seems that India has offered to resume peace negotiations with Pakistan under the U.S. pressure. Is it +reality? Do you have any evidence in this regard? +Dr Hassan Askari: Washington and London have been working to convince Pakistan and India to resume talks +in order to remove their mutual misunderstandings. At present, the U.S. enjoys cordial relations with both +India and Pakistan. Particularly, since 2005, Washington is in better position to give advice to New Delhi on +regional and global issues. I think that the fast-changing geopolitical situation in Afghanistan has prompted +India to reduce tension in its relations with Pakistan through dialogue. Moreover, the U.S. thinks that Pakistan +cannot fully concentrate on its border with Afghanistan, which is vital to win the war against terrorism, unless +its eastern borders are not secured. Hence, the perception, that the U.S. is behind the Indian offer of dialogue, +holds water and cannot be dismissed as mere a speculation. +Host: Do you think that the U.S. understands our concerns regarding the Indian threat on our eastern border? +Lt. Gen (R) Nishat Ahmed: Washington and its allies want that Pakistan should deploy its full military power on +its western border in order to deal with the menace of terrorism. I think that the government as well as the +military leadership of Pakistan have succeeded in convincing the U.S. that our country faces serious and +potential threat from its eastern neighbor, India. Hence, it would be impossible for us to fully concentrate on +the war against terrorism as long as the Indian threat on our eastern border is not eliminated, or at least not +reduced. The entire world knows that Pakistan has always been attacked from its eastern border while India +even played pivotal role in the dismemberment of Pakistan in 1971. Hence, I think that the U.S. and its allies +convinced New Delhi that it would be in its own interest to hold dialogue with Islamabad. +The following programs were also monitored, but as they dealt with domestic issues, therefore, were not +summarized: +Program: ""Crisis Cell"" Geo TV (01/22) +Host: Sana Buchcha +Participants: Khawaja Asif (PML-N); Yasir Hashmi (Psychologist); Musharraf Zaidi (Analyst) +Topic: Growing Confrontation Between PPP & PML-N +Program: ""Front Line"" Express TV (02/21) +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767363 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767363 Date: 08/31/2015 +Host: Kamran Shahid +Participants: Shakeel Awan (PML-N); Sheikh Rasheed (AML); Dr. Kamal (Jamaat-i-Islami) +Topic: By-Elections In Rawalpindi +Program: ""Meray Mutabiq"" Geo TV (02/21) +Host: Dr. Shahid Masood +Participants: Faisal Raza Abidi (PPP); Insar Abbasi (Investigative Reporter The News) +Topic: Swiss Cases And Immunity To President Asif Zardari +Program: ""In Session"" Dunya TV (02/21) +Host: Asma Chaudhry +Participants: Kashmala Tariq (PML-Q); Asma Arbab Alamgir (PPP); Khurram Dastgir (PML-N) +Topic: An Overview Of Government's Performance +Monitored by Info Office +Public Affairs Section +U.S. Embassy Islamabad +Pakistan +htto://islamabad.usembassy.gov +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767363 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4088,C05767364,RIO GROUP-HAITI,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-02-23T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0066/DOC_0C05767364/C05767364.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,,"McMullen, Christopher J; De Pirro, Velia M",,F-2014-20439,C05767364,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Fyi below +Mills, Cheryl D +Tuesday, February 23, 2010 7:38 AM +FW: Rio Group-Haiti +Declassify on: 02/23/2020","The position is not clearly defined. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767364 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B1,1.4(B),1.4(D) +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +Fyi below +Mills, Cheryl D +Tuesday, February 23, 2010 7:38 AM +FW: Rio Group-Haiti +Classified by DAS, A/GIS, DoS on 08/27/2015 — Class: CONFIDENTIAL — Reason: 1.4(B), 1.4(D) — +Declassify on: 02/23/2020 +Original Message---- +From: Simons, Paul E (Santiago) +Sent: Tuesday, February 23, 2010 6:08 AM +To: Reynoso, Julissa; Mills, Cheryl D; Valenzuela, Arturo A; Curtis, Meghann A; Kelly, Craig A; Brigety, Reuben; Shannon, +Thomas A +Cc: McMullen, Christopher J; De Pirro, Velia M +Subject: Re: Rio Group-Haiti +Reinforcing my note yesterday on the high side, +B1 +1.4(B) +1 4(C) +Original Message +From: Simons, Paul E (Santiago) +To: Reynoso, Julissa; Mills, Cheryl D; Valenzuela, Arturo A; Curtis, Meghann A; Kelly, Craig A; Brigety, Reuben; Shannon, +Thomas A +1.4(B) +Cc: McMullen, Christopher J; De Pirro, Velia M +1.4(D) +Sent: Mon Feb 22 23:32:44 2010 +B1 +Subject: Re: Rio Group-Haiti +Julissa/Cheryl Per Foreign Minister Fernandez,' +Original Message +From: Reynoso, Julissa +To: Mills, Cheryl D; Valenzuela, Arturo A; Curtis, Meghann A; Kelly, Craig A; Brigety, Reuben; Shannon, Thomas A; +Simons, Paul E (Santiago) +Cc: McMullen, Christopher J; De Pirro, Velia M +Sent: Mon Feb 22 23:03:06 2010 +Subject: Re: Rio Group-Haiti +1.4(D) +B1 +Including Tom Shannon and Paul Simons who know more. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767364 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767364 Date: 08/31/2015 +Original Message ---- +From: Mills, Cheryl D +To: Reynoso, Julissa; Valenzuela, Arturo A; Curtis, Meghann A; Kelly, Craig A; Brigety, Reuben +Sent: Mon Feb 22 20:40:54 2010 +Subject: RE: Rio Group-Haiti +What is the position?

Photograph: Julien Behal/PA +Justice and policing powers will be devolved to Northern Ireland 's +power-sharing government from 12 April in a historic deal agreed by the main parties that ""opens a new chapter"" after +decades of violence, Gordon Brown said today. +Standing alongside his Irish counterpart, Brian Cowen, at a press conference at Hillsborough Castle outside Belfast, the +prime minister said the ""inspirational"" agreement between Sinn Fein +and the Democratic Unionist party (DUP) was a foundation for lasting peace. +The deal — finally agreed to by the DUP last night and described as a final piece in the jigsaw after a long search for peace — comes after two weeks of +round-the-clock negotiations and brings an end to fears that the power-sharing government might collapse. +It will see policing and justice powers devolved from Westminster to the assembly within weeks and includes new plans +on overseeing parades. +Brown, who travelled to Belfast this morning, said the agreement had been possible because of ""a new spirit of mutual +co-operation and respect"". +The deal meets a key Sinn Fein demand and prevents the republican party from walking out of the power-sharing +executive. In return, the DUP has secured reforms to the way loyalist marches are handled in Northern Ireland, including +the abolition of the Parades Commission, a body most unionists regard as biased in favour of nationalists. +A cross-community vote will now be held in the Stormont assembly on 9 March before the policing and justice powers +are devolved from London on 12 April. +Brown told reporters: ""The achievements have been as great as they are inspirational. This moment and this agreement +belongs to the people of Northern Ireland, all of the people, and now more than ever before so does their future ... This +is the last chapter of a long and troubled story and the beginning of a new chapter after decades of violence, years of +talks, weeks of stalemate."" +Cowen praised both unionists and nationalists for making ""fair and balanced compromises"" to bridge the divisions and +said the quality of the negotiations meant that the ""devolved institutions can and will work"". +The Northern Ireland secretary, Shaun Woodward, said the deal would further isolate republican dissidents who have +launched three separate gun and bomb attacks against police stations in the province over the last 10 days. The deal +would ""absolutely"" make Northern Ireland a safer place, he said. +The DUP leader, Peter Robinson, said the agreement ""will be more enduring because of the time spent"" in forming it. +Referring back to the Belfast Agreement of 1998 when negotiations bore fruit +at the 11th hour, the Sinn Fein president, Gerry Adams, described the current deal and the rescue of power-sharing as +""yet another very good Friday"". +Jeffrey Donaldson told the Guardian the DUP's 36-strong assembly team was now unanimously in favour of the deal. +But the Ulster Unionist party (UUP) has yet to officially back the package which will allow the assembly to set up +legislation to change the way parades are judged. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767369 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767369 Date: 08/31/2015 +A UUP spokeswoman said members wanted to see the proposed agreement before giving their response to the two +governments. ""We have not had sight of this agreement and until we do we will not be signing up to it,"" she said. +The talks, which centred on Hillsborough Castle, outside Belfast, are the longest set of continuous negotiations held in +the near 20-year peace process. Sinn Fein had accused the DUP of stalling on the transfer of policing powers for the last +three years and it was feared that failure to find agreement could see the collapse of the power-sharing government led +by the two parties. +The agreement finally came near midnight at Stormont's parliament building. Earlier in the evening Sinn Fein had said +the basis of a deal was on the table and it was giving the DUP leadership the time to persuade its party to accept it. +Robinson emerged from a meeting of party colleagues to confirm that he had secured unanimous support for the +proposals. Earlier in the week up to 14 DUP assembly members had opposed a proposed deal because it did not give +unionists enough concessions. +Robinson said he would now look to gain the support of the community and the smaller assembly parties for the deal. +""We have a basis upon which we can go forward and recommend it [the deal] to our party, to the other parties in +Northern Ireland and to the community. +""An essential element of the Democratic Unionist Party's manifesto is the requirement for community confidence; we +believe this can be the basis for gaining that confidence."" +However the leader of the hardline Traditional Unionist Voice (TUV), Jim Allister, questioned why the 14 DUP rebels had +changed their minds. +""The deal hasn't changed, only the snowmen of the DUP, who melted once the heat came on,"" Allister said. +The DUP now faces a struggle to ward off the TUV threat in the forthcoming general election.

In return, the DUP has secured reforms to the way loyalist marches are handled in Northern Ireland, including +the abolition of the Parades Commission, a body most unionists regard as biased in favour of nationalists. +A cross-community vote will now be held in the Stormont assembly on 9 March before the policing and justice powers +are devolved from London on 12 April. +Brown told reporters: ""The achievements have been as great as they are inspirational. This moment and this agreement +belongs to the people of Northern Ireland, all of the people, and now more than ever before so does their future ... This +is the last chapter of a long and troubled story and the beginning of a new chapter after decades of violence, years of +talks, weeks of stalemate."" +Cowen praised both unionists and nationalists for making ""fair and balanced compromises"" to bridge the divisions and +said the quality of the negotiations meant that the ""devolved institutions can and will work"". +The Northern Ireland secretary, Shaun Woodward, said the deal would further isolate republican dissidents who have +launched three separate gun and bomb attacks against police stations in the province over the last 10 days. The deal +would ""absolutely"" make Northern Ireland a safer place, he said. +The DUP leader, Peter Robinson, said the agreement ""will be more enduring because of the time spent"" in forming it. +Referring back to the Belfast Agreement of 1998 when negotiations bore fruit +at the 11th hour, the Sinn Fein president, Gerry Adams, described the current deal and the rescue of power-sharing as +""yet another very good Friday"". +Jeffrey Donaldson told the Guardian the DUP's 36-strong assembly team was now unanimously in favour of the deal. +But the Ulster Unionist party (UUP) has yet to officially back the package which will allow the assembly to set up +legislation to change the way parades are judged. +A UUP spokeswoman said members wanted to see the proposed agreement before giving their response to the two +governments.

To my knowledge, all the countries in the region (from richest to poorest) +have contributed in some form or another to the relief efforts. This is unprecedented in this region. And given +that this effort relates to Haiti in particular, it is even more remarkable. As you know, Haiti since its +independence in 1804 has often been seen by the rest of the region as a second class nation. As the Spanish- +speaking nations of South America gained independence in the 1820s, they excluded Haiti from their designs +for regional union — mostly out of fear by the Latins of slave revolts and uprisings by their own black and +indigenous populations. (Of course, we have had our own complex and unfortunate relationship with Haiti.) As +has been demonstrated by the recent UNASUR and Grupo Rio sessions, the same cannot be said of the region +today. And of the countries S is visiting, Chile is the richest and Guatemala is by the far the poorest but each of +these countries — and all in between - has been contributing in its own way to Haiti's recovery: Chile with +significant MINUSTAH forces, a portable hospital, supplies, and monetary pledge; Guatemala with food, a +rescue unit and a MINUSTAH pledge (and the fact that UN ASG Edmond Mulet is Guatemalan!). In the +context of the relief response, each country in the region has given, more or less, relative to their means. +Through this process of cooperation in Haiti's recovery, we as a region can collectively turn around Haiti's +history of isolation. This is a very significant historic moment and we need to run with it. +Sorry about the long email but wanted to share these thoughts — as one who has a particular relationship with +the island of Hispaniola. In this context, I want to share a 1994 Washington Post below which, although • +covering a different type of crisis, is demonstrative of how times have changed. +Thanks.

But not one +major political ally or trading partner in the Western Hemisphere has stepped up to help. In a joint +statement yesterday, three of six Central American countries said they might take in Haitians. The +other three said they would not. +Slippery promises are all that President Clinton gets when he seeks recruits for a peacekeeping +force; none seems willing to join an invasion to oust the military leaders who seized power in 1991. +Panama's president-elect, Ernesto Perez Balladares, explained the lack of support in a recent +interview: ""It is for the very simple reason that in Latin America Haiti is not recognized as a Latin +American country. Haitians speak a different language. They have different ethnic roots, a different +culture. They are very different altogether."" +Overwhelmingly black, speaking Creole French, practicing voodoo, a nation of liberated slaves long +locked in deep poverty, Haiti has a history ofisolation within the hemisphere. It doesn't fit with the big +countries of South America. It is not part of Central America. It has no real kinship with the other +island-nations of the Caribbean. +""Haitians are strangers even among the other black nations of the Caribbean,"" said Jocelyn McCalla, +executive director of the National Coalition for Haitian Refugees, a New York-based advocacy group. +Haitians are ""just as strange to someone from Grenada or Jamaica as they would be to someone +from Iowa or Montana."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767380 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767380 Date: 08/31/2015 +When Suriname agreed to take in 2,000 Haitian boat people, neighboring French Guiana announced +it would tighten border security in case any Haitians escaped. +In recent years, the Organization of American States (OAS) and the United Nations have worked to +compel elections in Haiti, to put sanctions on its military regime and to monitor human rights abuses. +Now, Clinton is asking for much more as he tries to create a network of refugee camps around the +region and to assemble multinational backing for the forcible removal of Haiti's military regime. +Finding partners for either sheltering refugees or invading would be a challenge no matter what +country was involved. Petitioning on behalf of Haiti makes it much harder. +""Unsympathetic perceptions of Haiti as a hopeless case work against the kind of cooperation that the +administration is seeking, and those perceptions are deeply ingrained,"" said Wayne Smith, a senior +fellow at the Center for International Policy. +Haiti's isolation goes back to its 1804 independence. ""Here was a nation born of a slave revolt. It +raised fears of another slave revolt in many other nations which then simply shunned Haiti for +decades to come,"" Smith said. +As the Spanish-speaking nations of South America gained independence in the 1820s, they excluded +Haiti from their designs for regional union. U.S. recognition did not come until 1862, when the Civil +War made it politically expedient. +Haiti's chronic poverty, its chaotic succession of despots and its conflicts with the Dominican Republic +have deepened its isolation. +Is racism a factor in the shunning of Haiti? Perhaps not: Black and mixed-race nations have +sometimes demonstrated biases against Haiti. +But allegations of racism have often beset U.S. policy toward Haiti and are a major factor in the +evolution of the current crisis. +The U.S. invasion of Haiti in 1915 produced a 19-year occupation that included the imposition of +racial segregation and the use of forced labor. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767380 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767380 Date: 08/31/2015 +Randall Robinson, head of the TransAfrica lobbying organization, said, ""For almost 200 years U.S. +policies have treated Haiti differently than other nations with the painful consequences always visited +on Haitians who happen to be black."" +This history, Robinson said, combined with the fact that the slave revolt earned Haiti ""a place of pride +for people in the African diaspora,"" has made U.S. policy toward Haiti a logical target for U.S. blacks. +The activism has focused on what Robinson called ""the despicable practice of repatriation."" +Since 1991 the United States has tried to intercept Haitian boat people fleeing the military regime +before they could reach U.S. shores; most have been taken back to Haiti. No other nationality has +suffered that form of rejection. +As Robinson went into the 27th day of a hunger strike on May 8, Clinton announced he would end the +repatriation policy and begin more aggressive efforts to remove the Haitian military regime. +But Haiti's isolation has contributed to Clinton's setbacks trying to deal with the intertwined problems +of the generals and the refugees fleeing them. +On July 7, Panama backed out of an agreement to accept 10,000 Haitians, citing technicalities in the +Panama Canal Treaty. Balladares, who has promised to consider a more limited safe haven for +Haitians after he takes office Sept. 1, said the decision had nothing to do with the 1978 treaty and +everything to do with the way ordinary Panamanians view Haitians. +""People were very afraid of having the Haitians in the country and justifiably so,"" he said. ""They were +afraid of competing for scarce resources, afraid of people whose culture is different in many ways, +afraid of the AIDS problem. That is why the government backed out and everything else is excuses."" +Piero Gleijeses, a professor at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, said: +""Even if the Latin Americans felt some kinship to the Haitians, they would not be anxious to take in +refugees under these circumstances. They see the big, rich United States, a traditional nation of +resettlement, turning away the Haitians and they ask why they should have to take up the burden."" +Nearly all nations of the hemisphere have rallied around the idea of restoring democracy to Haiti, but +they are as reluctant to pursue that goal with force as they are to shelter Haitian refugees. Both +fundamental trends and the peculiarities of the Haitian case are at work. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767380 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767380 Date: 08/31/2015 +Among Latin American governments the traditional distaste for U.S. military intervention has been +growing more explicit in recent years.

Jean Hector Anacasis, who is among the six senators behind a recent +summons for Pierre-Louis to appear before Haiti's Senate on Thursday. Under Haiti's constitution, the Senate +can fire a sitting government. +""We are the ones on the ground who hear the people's cry, who hear them criticizing us, the government, +saying nothing has been done. We have to replace the woman,"" Anacasis said. ""If they are accusing us of +inviting a crisis, then we are inviting a crisis to avert another crisis."" +The internal political maneuvering comes just three weeks after former U.S. President and U.N. Special Envoy +to Haiti Bill Clinton led a historic trade mission here, triggering optimism that this land of seemingly missed +opportunities may finally be turning around. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767400 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767400 Date: 07/31/2015 +Before a gathering of 600 investors -- 200 of them foreign -- Clinton championed Haiti's stability, promising that +the risks were the lowest they have ever been in a crisis-prone Haiti. Now, both Haitian and foreign observers +fear that political differences could trigger a crisis and send potential investors packing. +""They cannot afford to do this. It is not good for investments,"" said one diplomat who asked for anonymity +because of the sensitivity of what is viewed as a domestic matter. ""It is all so frustrating."" +On Monday, diplomats spent the day shuffling between meetings with President Rene Preval, and discussions +with Pierre-Louis. The matter even warranted a weekend phone call to Preval from U.S. Secretary of State +Hillary Clinton. Clinton spoke of her concerns and reiterated U.S. support for Pierre-Louis, according to several +sources privy to the conversation. +Preval, in turn, told Clinton that he was not behind the move to oust Pierre-Louis and has no control over the +lawmakers. Critics disagree, pointing out that following the recent Senate elections, marred by fraud +allegations and low turnout, Preval now controls two-thirds of the chamber, and that most of the six senators +leading the charge are from his Lespwa (HOPE) political coalition, +POLITICALLY RISKY +Still, some are asking whether he's willing to spend the political capital to prevent the ouster of Pierre-Louis, a +one-time friend and confidante who accepted her appointment as a storm-battered Haiti was gripped by +political gridlock after the Senate fired then-Prime Minister Jacques-Edouard Alexis following food riots then +failed to ratify two of Preval's choices. +Neither Preval nor Pierre-Louis responded to interview requests from The Miami Herald. In a taped message to +the nation Monday night, Pierre-Louis defended her government's record and explained her reasons for taking +the job. +Since her appointment a year ago, Pierre-Louis has appeared often before parliament but this is the first time +she has been summoned, a move that usually signals a no-confidence vote. +Pierre-Louis has mustered considerable support abroad from her many trips, including stops in South Florida. +But she has failed to win over supporters in parliament. Her dismissal, in effect, would topple her government. +Initially, senators were seeking to dismiss the ministers of finance and justice, both of whom are close to +Pierre-Louis. But after three days of meetings at a hotel near the palace, senators decided to issue the +summons to Pierre-Louis, Anacasis told The Miami Herald. +A majority of the 29 senators have indicated they would vote to fire Pierre-Louis, Anacasis said. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767400 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767400 Date: 07/31/2015 +Pierre-Louis was in Europe on business, and returned to Haiti Sunday night where she was greeted by a small +group of protesters waving signs saying, ""We are tired of changing governments."" +In her defense, a handful of lawmakers and supporters have pleaded with the group of six to cancel Thursday's +hearing. +'SELF-INTEREST +""Since becoming prime minister, she,has struggled with limited human and financial resources and with a +structure of government that has been emasculated over decades of mismanagement and selfish politics,"" said +Robert Maguire, a Haiti expert at Washington, D.C.-based Trinity University. +""She has had to confront the narrow politics of self-interest imposed upon her ability to govern. And yet, she +has persevered, building a solid track record of relief and recovery in the aftermath of Haiti's devastating +storms of late 2008 and thereby contributing immensely to that spirit of Haiti's hope for a brighter future."" +It's unclear what has triggered the move, though some believe it revolves around Haiti's presidential elections. +While still a year away, political jockeying already has begun, with some suggesting politicians may be seeking +to position themselves and candidates for the scheduled November 2010 elections. +Meanwhile on Monday, as politicians weighed whether Pierre-Louis would fight or resign, some supporters +tried to persuade her to visit Preval to see if the two could reach a compromise. She has said she will fight, but +has no plans to go before parliament and be humiliated. That has some wondering whether she would resign +before Thursday. +Patrick Delatour, Haiti's tourism and acting commerce minister, said lawmakers should weigh the +consequences of their actions carefully. +""They should understand solving problems by any government is a process, a slow process,"" he said. ""Firing +this government does not mean the next government will be able to solve the problems any faster. It definitely +means the process of solving problems will stop and will have to start again."" +Robert P.

Photograph: Julien Behal/PA +Justice and policing powers will be devolved to Northern Ireland 's +power-sharing government from 12 April in a historic deal agreed by the main parties that ""opens a new chapter"" after +decades of violence, Gordon Brown said today. +Standing alongside his Irish counterpart, Brian Cowen, at a press conference at Hillsborough Castle outside Belfast, the +prime minister said the ""inspirational"" agreement between Sinn Fein +and the Democratic Unionist party (DUP) was a foundation for lasting peace. +The deal —finally agreed to by the DUP last night and described as a final piece in the jigsaw after a long search for peace — comes after two weeks of +round-the-clock negotiations and brings an end to fears that the power-sharing government might collapse. +It will see policing and justice powers devolved from Westminster to the assembly within weeks and includes new plans +on overseeing parades. +Brown, who travelled to Belfast this morning, said the agreement had been possible because of ""a new spirit of mutual +co-operation and respect"". +The deal meets a key Sinn Fein demand and prevents the republican party from walking out of the power-sharing +executive. In return, the DUP has secured reforms to the way loyalist marches are handled in Northern Ireland, including +the abolition of the Parades Commission, a body most unionists regard as biased in favour of nationalists. +A cross-community vote will now be held in the Stormont assembly on 9 March before the policing and justice powers +are devolved from London on 12 April. +Brown told reporters: ""The achievements have been as great as they are inspirational. This moment and this agreement +belongs to the people of Northern Ireland, all of the people, and now more than ever before so does their future ... This +is the last chapter of a long and troubled story and the beginning of a new chapter after decades of violence, years of +talks, weeks of stalemate."" +Cowen praised both unionists and nationalists for making ""fair and balanced compromises"" to bridge the divisions and +said the quality of the negotiations meant that the ""devolved institutions can and will work"". +The Northern Ireland secretary, Shaun Woodward, said the deal would further isolate republican dissidents who have +launched three separate gun and bomb attacks against police stations in the province over the last 10 days. The deal +would ""absolutely"" make Northern Ireland a safer place, he said. +The DUP leader, Peter Robinson, said the agreement ""will be more enduring because of the time spent"" in forming it. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767429 Date: 08/31/2015 +B6 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767429 Date: 08/31/2015 +Referring back to the Belfast Agreement of 1998 when negotiations bore fruit +at the 11th hour, the Sinn Fein president, Gerry Adams, described the current deal and the rescue of power-sharing as +""yet another very good Friday"". +Jeffrey Donaldson told the Guardian the DUP's 36-strong assembly team was now unanimously in favour of the deal. +But the Ulster Unionist party (UUP) has yet to officially back the package which will allow the assembly to set up +legislation to change the way parades are judged. +A UUP spokeswoman said members wanted to see the proposed agreement before giving their response to the two +governments. ""We have not had sight of this agreement and until we do we will not be signing up to it,"" she said. +The talks, which centred on Hillsborough Castle, outside Belfast, are the longest set of continuous negotiations held in +the near 20-year peace process. Sinn Fein had accused the DUP of stalling on the transfer of policing powers for the last +three years and it was feared that failure to find agreement could see the collapse of the power-sharing government led +by the two parties. +The agreement finally came near midnight at Stormont's parliament building. Earlier in the evening Sinn Fein had said +the basis of a deal was on the table and it was giving the DUP leadership the time to persuade its party to accept it. +Robinson emerged from a meeting of party colleagues to confirm that he had secured unanimous support for the +proposals. Earlier in the week up to 14 DUP assembly members had opposed a proposed deal because it did not give +unionists enough concessions. +Robinson said he would now look to gain the support of the community and the smaller assembly parties for the deal. +""We have a basis upon which we can go forward and recommend it [the deal] to our party, to the other parties in +Northern Ireland and to the community. +""An essential element of the Democratic Unionist Party's manifesto is the requirement for community confidence; we +believe this can be the basis for gaining that confidence."" +However the leader of the hardline Traditional Unionist Voice (TUV), Jim Allister, questioned why the 14 DUP rebels had +changed their minds. +""The deal hasn't changed, only the snowmen of the DUP, who melted once the heat came on,"" Allister said. +The DUP now faces a struggle to ward off the TUV threat in the forthcoming general election. Allister will portray the +deal as a sell-out of unionist principles and a sop to republicanism. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767429 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4118,C05767431,2/25/10 SENIOR STAFF AND REGIONAL BUREAUS MEETINGS,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-02-25T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0066/DOC_0C05767431/C05767431.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: 2/25/10 Senior Staff and Regional Bureaus Meetings,,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Thursday, February 25, 2010 1:01 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767431,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767431 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B5 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Thursday, February 25, 2010 1:01 PM +To: +Subject: FW: 2/25/10 Senior Staff and Regional Bureaus Meetings +fyi +From: Smith, Daniel B +Sent: Thursday, February 25, 2010 12:30 PM +To: Mills, Cheryl D; Abedin, Huma; Sullivan, Jacob J +Subject: 2/25/10 Senior Staff and Regional Bureaus Meetings +SENSITIVE BUT UNCLASSFIED +HAITI +• Jack reported briefly on his conversations with Lowey and Oberstar on Haiti.

But they do not rise to the top of their trade without +also knowing how to stick in the knife. +At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, which opened last week, resembled a +gentlemen's club moved to the sanitised surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Westminster. +Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment politely questioned other Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment +about who said what to whom in which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open and +closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the world. +Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another Whitehall +whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will not +seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows +how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and career +civil servants over the way Tony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted +to oust Saddam Hussein, bypassing the ""official channels"" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767432 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767432 Date: 07/31/2015 +Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden themselves - +finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like +salami day after day. +Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday that the +threat from Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. +In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. ""We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical weapons +might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq +might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."" +Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference to the +case for war. ""I don't think it invalidated the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use,"" he said. But +he had set the tone. +On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already criticised the +government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of +Margaret Thatcher. ""I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite often I think about this: +what would Margaret Thatcher have done?"" Meyer asked. ""I think she would have insisted on a coherent political and +diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you +removed Saddam Hussein."" +A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair +had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. ""We could have achieved more by playing a +tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, +that I will not be able to take part in any military operation unless we have palpable progress on the [Middle East] peace +process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature +— it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the nature of American planning. "" +Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with +Washington's, Meyer added: ""I wouldn't say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that."" +On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to +resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: ""I regard our participation in the +military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically +observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the majority of people inside the +UK."" +Today new arguments are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive +documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the +lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, unless all such +material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. +But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing testimony +could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy + adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo +which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. According to reports, +the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January +which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to carry out an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass +destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that +Blair made to parliament afterwards that Saddam would be given a final chance to disarm. +The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly low over +Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America +and Britain. +Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more +than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's +evidence that Meyer received ""new instructions"" in early 2005 indicating that it was a ""complete waste of time"" to +oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. +On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, +the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence +committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to +office in 2001 that there were ""voices"" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767432 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767432 Date: 07/31/2015 +the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush +that he would support military action ""to bring about regime change"". +According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as ""scrambling to establish a link +between Iraq and al-Qaida"" — a connection that was ""so far, frankly unconvincing"". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the +Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military +planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and +what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of +intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons. +After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral +the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General Sir +Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser +to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the +conflict. +The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who +will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. +When Chilcot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including Jack +Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the highly +controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry — in +January. +In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute +blame. But after only one week it is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. +The Washington Post +Afghanistan: The speech you'll miss +By Jim Hoagland +Sunday, November 29, 2009 +Dec. 1, 2009: +My fellow Americans, +This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech for the +only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. +Which is: steamed. +I want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. +First, to let those know-it-alls, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one more thing: This is the last big troop +increase you get, so make it work. +I am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency. This is not July 1965, when +Westmoreland jumped the shark of escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. For all the +trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the shadowboxing that dominated my long war +council meetings. +Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to be characterized in the media as being +ready to bug out now. This helped us push back against McChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 additional U.S. +soldiers. +Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just saying I +should promote Denis? Maybe it was Denis? +Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number of, say, 23,000 new combat troops, +5,000 additional trainers and a ""NATO surge"" of 5,000 foreign troops. +That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech without losing the left of the Democratic Party-- +while being able to refute John McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. +Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all credibility, and David Petraeus's performance +was dazzling. Which presents two big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could get the Republican nomination in +2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think ahead.) And if the generals box me in, civilian control of the +military in this country becomes a mockery. Clinton was afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to it. I've got to get +the right balance back. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767432 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767432 Date: 07/31/2015 +That's why I need Bob Gates and Jim Jones. Those who scoffed at my keeping on Bush's defense secretary, and then +making a retired Marine four-star I hardly knew my NSC guy, were not thinking that moments like this would come. I +already was. +Gates has maneuvered flawlessly through my waterboarding-by-leaks on Afghanistan. He will sell my final number to the +uniforms as the ""floor"" for U.S. troops that Petraeus argues we need for three years. But Gates knows I will make it a +ceiling. +We can't afford an open-ended commitment. I put Peter Orszag, as good a budget overseer as you can find, front and +center for the photographers in that last war council. Many missed it, but NBC's Andrea Mitchell got it right away. No +wonder she's married to Alan Greenspan. +I will bet that Stan McChrystal never drew up a budget in his life. +Jones tells me these Special Operations commanders are used to getting whatever they ask for, especially since +September 11th. Nobody on the Hill will deny them anything. +Jones is also squeezing the Europeans to join the battle and is getting results, even from the Germans. What is it Jones +says? Maybe the worst thing of all would be to be perceived to lose in Afghanistan and then have the Europeans say: +Well, you never asked for more help at the crucial time. Makes sense to me. +We have sent NATO members the numbers we think they can and should provide, country by country. That new +secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, is pulling out the stops, visiting the capitals to get commitments. +""Say it now, pay it later,"" we tell the Europeans. They have until mid-2010 to deploy their new units. But I need pledges +now so I can get across tonight that this is NATO's war, not Obama's war. That's' unspoken-goal number three. +So I have frontloaded the speech with allusions to this being about an exit strategy, without boxing myself in on timing, +and am presenting the ""civilian surge"" as being as essential as the troop buildup. That helps set up my Oslo speech. And +who knows? It may even work out that way. If God blesses us all. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767432 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +4120,C05767434,ANOTHER MEMO ON BACKDROP TO THIS WEEK.

The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open and +closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the world. +Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another Whitehall +whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will not +seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows +how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and career +civil servants over the way Tony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted +to oust Saddam Hussein, bypassing the ""official channels"" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767434 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767434 Date: 07/31/2015 +Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden themselves - +finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like +salami day after day. +Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday that the +threat from Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. +In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. ""We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical weapons +might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq +might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."" +Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference to the +case for war. ""I don't think it invalidated the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use,"" he said. But +he had set the tone. +On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already criticised the +government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of +Margaret Thatcher. ""I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite often I think about this: +what would Margaret Thatcher have done?"" Meyer asked. ""I think she would have insisted on a coherent political-and +diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you +removed Saddam Hussein."" +A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair +had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. ""We could have achieved more by playing a +tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, +that I will not be able to take part in any military• operation unless we have palpable progress on the [Middle East] peace +process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature +— it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the nature of American planning. "" +Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with +Washington's, Meyer added: ""I wouldn't say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that."" +On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to +resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: ""I regard our participation in the +military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically +observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the majority of people inside the +UK."" +Today new arguments are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive +documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the +lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, unless all such +material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. +But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing testimony +could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy + adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo +which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. According to reports, +the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January +which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to carry out an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass +destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that +Blair made to parliament afterwards that Saddam would be given a final chance to disarm. +The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly low over +Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America +and Britain. +Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more +than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's +evidence that Meyer received ""new instructions"" in early 2005 indicating that it was a ""complete waste of time"" to +oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. +On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, +the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence +committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to +office in 2001 that there were ""voices"" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767434 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767434 Date: 07/31/2015 +the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush +that he would support military action ""to bring about regime change"". +According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as ""scrambling to establish a link +between Iraq and al-Qaida"" — a connection that was ""so far, frankly unconvincing"". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the +Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military +planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and +what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of +intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons. +After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral +the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General Sir +Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser +to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the +conflict. +The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who +will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. +When Chilcot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including Jack +Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the highly +controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry — in +January. +In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute +blame. But after only one week it is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. +The Washington Post +Afghanistan: The speech you'll miss +By Jim Hoagland +Sunday, November 29, 2009 +Dec. 1, 2009: +My fellow Americans, +This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech for the +only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. +Which is: steamed. +I want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. +First, to let those know-it-alls, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one more thing: This is the last big troop +increase you get, so make it work. +I am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency. This is not July 1965, when +Westmoreland jumped the shark of escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. For all the +trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the shadowboxing that dominated my long war +council meetings. +Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to be characterized in the media as being +ready to bug out now. This helped us push back against McChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 additional U.S. +soldiers. +Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just saying +should promote Denis? Maybe it was Denis? +Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number of, say, 23,000 new combat troops, +5,000 additional trainers and a ""NATO surge"" of 5,000 foreign troops. +That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech without losing the left of the Democratic Party -- +while being able to refute John McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. +Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all credibility, and David Petraeus's performance +was dazzling. Which presents two big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could get the Republican nomination in +2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think ahead.) And if the generals box me in, civilian control of the +military in this country becomes a mockery. Clinton was afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to it. I've got to get +the right balance back. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767434 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767434 Date: 07/31/2015 +That's why I need Bob Gates and Jim Jones. Those who scoffed at my keeping on Bush's defense secretary, and then +making a retired Marine four-star I hardly knew my NSC guy, were not thinking that moments like this would come. I +already was. +Gates has maneuvered flawlessly through my waterboarding-by-leaks on Afghanistan. He will sell my final number to the +uniforms as the ""floor"" for U.S. troops that Petraeus argues we need for three years. But Gates knows I will make it a +ceiling. +We can't afford an open-ended commitment. I put Peter Orszag, as good a budget overseer as you can find, front and +center for the photographers in that last war council. Many missed it, but NBC's Andrea Mitchell got it right away. No +wonder she's married to Alan Greenspan. +I will bet that Stan McChrystal never drew up a budget in his life. +Jones tells me these Special Operations commanders are used to getting whatever they ask for, especially since +September 11th. Nobody on the Hill will deny them anything. +Jones is also squeezing the Europeans to join the battle and is getting results, even from the Germans. What is it Jones +says? Maybe the worst thing of all would be to be perceived to lose in Afghanistan and then have the Europeans say: +Well, you never asked for more help at the crucial time. Makes sense to me. +We have sent NATO members the numbers we think they can and should provide, country by country. That new +secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, is pulling out the stops, visiting the capitals to get commitments. +""Say it now, pay it later,"" we tell the Europeans. They have until mid-2010 to deploy their new units. But I need pledges +now so I can get across tonight that this is NATO's war, not Obarna's war. That's unspoken-goal number three. +So I have frontloaded the speech with allusions to this being about an exit strategy, without boxing myself in on timing, +and am presenting the ""civilian surge"" as being as essential as the troop buildup. That helps set up my Oslo speech. And +who knows? It may even work out that way. If God blesses us all. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767434 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +4121,C05767436,BRAVO! BRAVA! ISSUE YOUR STATEMENT!

Photograph: Julien Behal/PA +Justice and policing powers will be devolved to Northern Ireland 's +power-sharing government from 12 April in a historic deal agreed by the main parties that ""opens a new chapter"" after +decades of violence, Gordon Brown said today. +Standing alongside his Irish counterpart, Brian Cowen, at a press conference at Hillsborough Castle outside Belfast, the +prime minister said the ""inspirational"" agreement between Sinn Fein +and the Democratic Unionist party (DUP) was a foundation for lasting peace. +The deal —finally agreed to by the DUP last night and described as a final piece in the jigsaw after a long search for peace — comes after two weeks of +round-the-clock negotiations and brings an end to fears that the power-sharing government might collapse. +It will see policing and justice powers devolved from Westminster to the assembly within weeks and includes new plans +on overseeing parades. +Brown, who travelled to Belfast this morning, said the agreement had been possible because of ""a new spirit of mutual +co-operation and respect"". +The deal meets a key Sinn Fein demand and prevents the republican party from walking out of the power-sharing +executive. In return, the DUP has secured reforms to the way loyalist marches are handled in Northern Ireland, including +the abolition of the Parades Commission, a body most unionists regard as biased in favour of nationalists. +A cross-community vote will now be held in the Stormont assembly on 9 March before the policing and justice powers +are devolved from London on 12 April. +Brown told reporters: ""The achievements have been as great as they are inspirational. This moment and this agreement +belongs to the people of Northern Ireland, all of the people, and now more than ever before so does their future ... This +is the last chapter of a long and troubled story and the beginning of a new chapter after decades of violence, years of +talks, weeks of stalemate."" +Cowen praised both unionists and nationalists for making ""fair and balanced compromises"" to bridge the divisions and +said the quality of the negotiations meant that the ""devolved institutions can and will work"". +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767436 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767436 Date: 08/31/2015 +The Northern Ireland secretary, Shaun Woodward, said the deal would further isolate republican dissidents who have +launched three separate gun and bomb attacks against police stations in the province over the last 10 days. The deal +would ""absolutely"" make Northern Ireland a safer place, he said. +The DUP leader, Peter Robinson, said the agreement will be more enduring because of the time spent"" in forming it. +Referring back to the Belfast Agreement of 1998 when negotiations bore fruit +at the 11th hour, the Sinn Féin president, Gerry Adams, described the current deal and the rescue of power-sharing as +""yet another very good Friday"". +Jeffrey Donaldson told the Guardian the DUP's 36-strong assembly team was now unanimously in favour of the deal. +But the Ulster Unionist party (UUP) has yet to officially back the package which will allow the assembly to set up +legislation to change the way parades are judged. +A UUP spokeswoman said members wanted to see the proposed agreement before giving their response to the two +governments. ""We have not had sight of this agreement and until we do we will not be signing up to it,"" she said. +The talks, which centred on Hillsborough Castle, outside Belfast, are the longest set of continuous negotiations held in +the near 20-year peace process. Sinn Fein had accused the DUP of stalling on the transfer of policing powers for the last +three years and it was feared that failure to find agreement could see the collapse of the power-sharing government led +by the two parties. +The agreement finally came near midnight at Stormont's parliament building. Earlier in the evening Sinn Fein had said +the basis of a deal was on the table and it was giving the DUP leadership the time to persuade its party to accept it. +Robinson emerged from a meeting of party colleagues to confirm that he had secured unanimous support for the +proposals. Earlier in the week up to 14 DUP assembly members had opposed a proposed deal because it did not give +unionists enough concessions. +Robinson said he would now look to gain the support of the community and the smaller assembly parties for the deal. +""We have a basis upon which we can go forward and recommend it [the deal] to our party, to the other parties in +Northern Ireland and to the community. +""An essential element of the Democratic Unionist Party's manifesto is the requirement for community confidence; we +believe this can be the basis for gaining that confidence."" +However the leader of the hardline Traditional Unionist Voice (TUV), Jim Allister, questioned why the 14 DUP rebels had +changed their minds. +""The deal hasn't changed, only the snowmen of the DUP, who melted once the heat came on,"" Allister said. +The DUP now faces a struggle to ward off the TUV threat in the forthcoming general election. Allister will portray the +deal as a sell-out of unionist principles and a sop to republicanism. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767436 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4122,C05767437,OUT OF OFFICE AUTOREPLY: HAVE YOU LEFT YET?,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-02-26T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0066/DOC_0C05767437/C05767437.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Out of Office AutoReply: Have you left yet?,,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Friday, February 26, 2010 7:33 AM",F-2014-20439,C05767437,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"I am traveling outside of the country, with intermittent access to my email.

Richard Shelby, R-Ala., has placed a blanket hold on all executive nominations on the Senate calendar in an effort +to win concessions from the Obama administration and Pentagon on a variety of fronts affecting his home state, according +to aides to Senate Majority Leader Reid. +Reid spokeswoman Regan Lachapelle said Shelby is blocking more than 70 pending nominations. Reid can force a vote +on any nomination by filing cloture. +Because of the time required to vote on multiple nominations, the Senate processes most nominations by unanimous +consent. Any one senator can block any of those nominations by objecting to a unanimous consent request to take it up. +The nominations will remain stalled unless Reid files cloture. +While holds are frequent, Senate aides said a blanket hold represents a far more aggressive use of the power than is +normal. +""He should not be holding up 70-plus nominees for a parochial issue,"" a Democratic aide said. ""They're qualified and they +should be moving forward."" +Disclosure of the blanket hold came after two days in which top Democrats voiced mounting frustration with Republican +holds on executive nominees. +'We've got a huge backlog of folks who are unanimously viewed as well qualified -- nobody has a specific objection to +them -- but end up having a hold on them because of some completely unrelated piece of business,"" President Obama +said Wednesday in a televised meeting with Senate Democrats. +On the Senate floor Thursday, Reid, Senate Majority Whip Durbin, Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy and +Senate Armed Services Chairman Carl Levin ripped Republicans for holds on national security nominees and judges. +Reid, who kept the Senate in pro forma session over recent holidays to prevent former President George W. Bush from +making recess appointments, said he has grown so frustrated he might advocate such appointments, which the president +can make when the Senate is out of session. +'What alternatives do we have?"" Reid said on the floor Thursday. ""What alternative do we have?"" +Earlier in the day, a spokesman for Shelby said the senator has placed holds on ""several pending nominees due to +unaddressed national security concerns,"" including frustrations with the Air Force's handling of the competition for an +aerial refueling tanker. The spokesman did not respond to later requests for comment about the blanket hold. +Northrop Grumman Corp. and EADS, the European consortium behind Airbus, and Boeing Co. are vying for the high- +stakes contract, potentially worth $40 billion. The Northrop/EADS team would build the planes in Mobile, Ala., but has +threatened to pull out of the competition unless the Air Force makes changes to a draft request for proposals. +""Nearly 10 years after the U.S. Air Force announced plans to replace the aging tanker fleet, we still do not have a +transparent and fair acquisition process to move forward,"" the spokesman said. ""The Department of Defense must +recognize that the draft request for proposal needs to be significantly and substantively changed."" +Defense Secretary Gates Wednesday told House lawmakers the Pentagon plans to issue the final request for proposals +soon, and will proceed with the program whether or not there is a competition. +""Obviously we would like to have a competition for it, and we hope that both companies will agree to participate, but we +will move forward,"" Gates said. ""We have to have new tankers."" +In addition to the tanker issue, Shelby's spokesman said he is frustrated that the Obama administration won't build an +Alabama-based FBI center to analyze improvised explosive devices. +Shelby secured a $45 million earmark in the FY08 omnibus appropriations bill for a Terrorist Explosive Device Analytical +Center to be set up at the Army's Redstone Arsenal. +""Sen. Shelby will continue to work with the FBI to give them the capability to coordinate intelligence as well as forensic +and technical exploitation related to IEDs, but this administration's coddling of terrorists makes this an uphill effort,"" the +spokesman said. ""He has made the administration aware of these concerns and is willing to discuss them at any time."" +Also Thursday, Vice President Biden said he was so frustrated by Republican foot-dragging that he was considering +whether Senate rules should be changed. +""There's a little disappointment in that it seems like the only way to do business up here anymore is with a supermajority +on almost everything,"" Biden said moments after swearing in Sen.

Richard Shelby, R-Ala., has placed a blanket hold on all executive nominations on the Senate calendar in an effort +to win concessions from the Obama administration and Pentagon on a variety of fronts affecting his home state, according +to aides to Senate Majority Leader Reid. +Reid spokeswoman Regan Lachapelle said Shelby is blocking more than 70 pending nominations. Reid can force a vote +on any nomination by filing cloture. +Because of the time required to vote on multiple nominations, the Senate processes most nominations by unanimous +consent. Any one senator can block any of those nominations by objecting to a unanimous consent request to take it up. +The nominations will remain stalled unless Reid files cloture. +While holds are frequent, Senate aides said a blanket hold represents a far more aggressive use of the power than is +normal. +""He should not be holding up 70-plus nominees for a parochial issue,"" a Democratic aide said. ""They're qualified and they +should be moving forward."" +Disclosure of the blanket hold came after two days in which top Democrats voiced mounting frustration with Republican +holds on executive nominees. +'We've got a huge backlog of folks who are unanimously viewed as well qualified -- nobody has a specific objection to +them -- but end up having a hold on them because of some completely unrelated piece of business,"" President Obama +said Wednesday in a televised meeting with Senate Democrats. +On the Senate floor Thursday, Reid, Senate Majority Whip Durbin, Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy and +Senate Armed Services Chairman Carl Levin ripped Republicans for holds on national security nominees and judges. +Reid, who kept the Senate in pro forma session over recent holidays to prevent former President George W. Bush from +making recess appointments, said he has grown so frustrated he might advocate such appointments, which the president +can make when the Senate is out of session. +'What alternatives do we have?"" Reid said on the floor Thursday. ""What alternative do we have?"" +Earlier in the day, a spokesman for Shelby said the senator has placed holds on ""several pending nominees due to +unaddressed national security concerns,"" including frustrations with the Air Force's handling of the competition for an +aerial refueling tanker. The spokesman did not respond to later requests for comment about the blanket hold. +Northrop Grumman Corp. and EADS, the European consortium behind Airbus, and Boeing Co. are vying for the high- +stakes contract, potentially worth $40 billion. The Northrop/EADS team would build the planes in Mobile, Ala., but has +threatened to pull out of the competition unless the Air Force makes changes to a draft request for proposals. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767454 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767454 Date: 08/31/2015 +""Nearly 10 years after the U.S. Air Force announced plans to replace the aging tanker fleet, we still do not have a +transparent and fair acquisition process to move forward,"" the spokesman said. ""The Department of Defense must +recognize that the draft request for proposal needs to be significantly and substantively changed."" +Defense Secretary Gates Wednesday told House lawmakers the Pentagon plans to issue the final request for proposals +soon, and will proceed with the program whether or not there is a competition. +""Obviously we would like to have a competition for it, and we hope that both companies will agree to participate, but we +will move forward,"" Gates said. ""We have to have new tankers."" +In addition to the tanker issue, Shelby's spokesman said he is frustrated that the Obama administration won't build an +Alabama-based FBI center to analyze improvised explosive devices. +Shelby secured a $45 million earmark in the FY08 omnibus appropriations bill for a Terrorist Explosive Device Analytical +Center to be set up at the Army's Redstone Arsenal. +""Sen. Shelby will continue to work with the FBI to give them the capability to coordinate intelligence as well as forensic +and technical exploitation related to IEDs, but this administration's coddling of terrorists makes this an uphill effort,"" the +spokesman said. ""He has made the administration aware of these concerns and is willing to discuss them at any time."" +Also Thursday, Vice President Biden said he was so frustrated by Republican foot-dragging that he was considering +whether Senate rules should be changed. +""There's a little disappointment in that it seems like the only way to do business up here anymore is with a supermajority +on almost everything,"" Biden said moments after swearing in Sen.

Britain and Europe are riveted by Chilcot, especially official circles. The objective correlative, of +course, is trust in any U.S. administration and deep skepticism about the Afghanistan project. Yet another undercurrent +among the mandarins is disdainful resentment of indifference to Britain, a sentiment beyond Labour or the Tories but +what has emerged as the view of the permanent establishment at Whitehall and elsewhere. +Mandelson Watch: After Miliband declined to reach for the EU foreign secretaryship (though Sarkozy wanted him to +take it and Brown was not averse, even favorable), Mandelson personally campaigned on his own for it among the +Europeans. Mandelson was eager to Miliband to take the EU post, allowing Mandelson to be appointed foreign +minister. When Miliband refused, Mandelson's ambition was thwarted, and tried to seize the EU position for himself, +but without any backing in Europe or from Gordon. The Europeans thought him mad. Suddenly, they recalled his bad or +strange behavior as UK commissioner to the EU. When Christine Ashton was named, Mandelson briefed the press on her +lack of credentials, etc. Ashton, as it happens, had worked the press to try to help Mandelson when he had gotten into +the mess that led to his first resignation. Those inside the government who remember this see it as an illustration of the +principle that no good deed goes unpunished. Mandelson, in a snit, is now not speaking to Gordon as though his +rejection were Gordon's fault. +One more item: Did you read Jim Hoagland in the Washington Post today? He nails McDonough for trashing Biden, +among other things. Enclosed below story on Chilcot: +http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/nov/29/iraq-war-inquiry-chilcot-blair +Chilcot Inquiry: Mandarins take revenge on Tony Blair over Iraq Civil servants and diplomats are lining up to stick a knife +into former PM's reputation +* Toby Helm and Rajeev Syal + +* The Observer , Sunday 29 November 2009 +* Whitehall mandarins are supreme masters of subtle evasion. But they do not rise to the top of their trade without +also knowing how to stick in the knife. +At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, which opened last week, resembled a +gentlemen's club moved to the sanitised surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Westminster. +Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment politely questioned other Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment +about who said what to whom in which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open and +closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the world. +Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another Whitehall +whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will not +seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows +how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and career +civil servants over the way Tony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted +to oust Saddam Hussein, bypassing the ""official channels"" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767479 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767479 Date: 07/31/2015 +Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden themselves - +finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like +salami day after day. +Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday that the +threat from Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. +In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. ""We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical weapons +might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq +might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."" +Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference to the +case for war. ""I don't think it invalidated the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use,"" he said. But +he had set the tone. +On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already criticised the +government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of +Margaret Thatcher. ""I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite often I think about this: +what would Margaret Thatcher have done?"" Meyer asked. ""I think she would have insisted on a coherent political and +diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you +removed Saddam Hussein."" +A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair +had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. ""We could have achieved more by playing a +tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, +that I will not be able to take part in any military operation unless we have palpable progress on the [Middle East] peace +process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature +-- it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the nature of American planning. "" +Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with +Washington's, Meyer added: ""I wouldn't say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that."" +On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to +resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: ""I regard our participation in the +military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically +observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the majority of people inside the +UK."" +Today new arguments are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive +documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the +lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, unless all such +material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. +But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing testimony +could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy + adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo +which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. According to reports, +the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January +which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to carry out an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass +destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that +Blair made to parliament afterwards that Saddam would be given a final chance to disarm. +The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly low over +Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America +and Britain. +Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more +than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's +evidence that Meyer received ""new instructions"" in early 2005 indicating that it was a ""complete waste of time"" to +oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. +On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, +the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence +committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to +office in 2001 that there were ""voices"" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767479 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767479 Date: 07/31/2015 +the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush +that he would support military action ""to bring about regime change"". +According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as ""scrambling to establish a link +between Iraq and al-Qaida"" — a connection that was ""so far, frankly unconvincing"". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the +Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military +planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and +what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of +intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons. +After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral +the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General Sir +Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser +to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the +conflict. +The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who +will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. +When Chilcot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including Jack +Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the highly +controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry — in +January. +In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute +blame. But after only one week it is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. +The Washington Post +Afghanistan: The speech you'll miss +By Jim Hoagland +Sunday, November 29, 2009 +Dec. 1, 2009: +My fellow Americans, +This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech for the +only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. +Which is: steamed. +I want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. +First, to let those know-it-alls, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one more thing: This is the last big troop +increase you get, so make it work. +am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency. This is not July 1965, when +Westmoreland jumped the shark of escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. For all the +trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the shadowboxing that dominated my long war +council meetings. +Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to be characterized in the media as being +ready to bug out now. This helped us push back against McChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 additional U.S. +soldiers. +Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just saying I +should promote Denis? Maybe it was Denis? +Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number of, say, 23,000 new combat troops, +5,000 additional trainers and a ""NATO surge"" of 5,000 foreign troops. +That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech without losing the left of the Democratic Party -- +while being able to refute John McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. +Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all credibility, and David Petraeus's performance +was dazzling. Which presents two big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could get the Republican nomination in +2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think ahead.) And if the generals box me in, civilian control of the +military in this country becomes a mockery. Clinton was afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to it.

Sid +CONFIDENTIAL +November 29, 2009 +For: Hillary +From: Sid +Re: Backdrop to your coming week +Below is a piece published today in The Observer, the Sunday newspaper of The Guardian, on the Chilcot inquiry, +summarizing the testimony so far and what is expected this week while you are drumming up support for the +Afghanistan initiative. Britain and Europe are riveted by Chilcot, especially official circles. The objective correlative, of +course, is trust in any U.S. administration and deep skepticism about the Afghanistan project. Yet another undercurrent +among the mandarins is disdainful resentment of indifference to Britain, a sentiment beyond Labour or the Tories but +what has emerged as the view of the permanent establishment at Whitehall and elsewhere. +Mandelson Watch: After Miliband declined to reach for the EU foreign secretaryship (though Sarkozy wanted him to +take it and Brown was not averse, even favorable), Mandelson personally campaigned on his own for it among the +Europeans. Mandelson was eager to Miliband to take the EU post, allowing Mandelson to be appointed foreign +minister. When Miliband refused, Mandelson's ambition was thwarted, and tried to seize the EU position for himself, +but without any backing in Europe or from Gordon. The Europeans thought him mad. Suddenly, they recalled his bad or +strange behavior as UK commissioner to the EU. When Christine Ashton was named, IVIandelson briefed the press on her +lack of credentials, etc. Ashton, as it happens, had worked the press to try to help Mandelson when he had gotten into +the mess that led to his first resignation. Those inside the government who remember this see it as an illustration of the +principle that no good deed goes unpunished. Mandelson, in a snit, is now not speaking to Gordon as though his +rejection were Gordon's fault. +One more item: Did you read Jim Hoagland in the Washington Post today? He nails McDonough for trashing Biden, +among other things. Enclosed below story on Chilcot: +http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/2009/nov/29/iraq-war-inquiry-chilcot-blair +Chilcot Inquiry: Mandarins take revenge on Tony Blair over Iraq Civil servants and diplomats are lining up to stick a knife +into former PM's reputation +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767480 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767480 Date: 07/31/2015 +* Toby Helm and Rajeev Syal + +* The Observer , Sunday 29 November 2009 +* Whitehall mandarins are supreme masters of subtle evasion. But they do not rise to the top of their trade without +also knowing how to stick in the knife. +At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, which opened last week, resembled a +gentlemen's club moved to the sanitised surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Westminster. +Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment politely questioned other Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment +about who said what to whom in which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open and +closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by webcam to the world. +Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, it will turn out to be another Whitehall +whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will not +seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows +how, to be using Chilcot to wield the scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and career +civil servants over the way Tony Blair and George Bush secretly plotted +to oust Saddam Hussein, bypassing the ""official channels"" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. +Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses will be ready to unburden themselves - +finally to take revenge. In session after session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like +salami day after day. +Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's former director of international security, volunteered last Wednesday that the +threat from Saddam's supposed weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. +In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. ""We did, I think on 10 March [2003], get a report that chemical weapons +might have remained disassembled and Saddam hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq +might lack warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."" +Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings had not made any difference to the +case for war. ""I don't think it invalidated the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use,"" he said. But +he had set the tone. +On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to 2003, who has already criticised the +government over Iraq in his memoirs, went for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of +Margaret Thatcher. ""I'm not trying to make a party political point here whatsoever, but quite often I think about this: +what would Margaret Thatcher have done?"" Meyer asked. ""I think she would have insisted on a coherent political and +diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you +removed Saddam Hussein."" +A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair +had failed miserably to extract a price from George Bush for his loyalty. ""We could have achieved more by playing a +tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, +that I will not be able to take part in any military operation unless we have palpable progress on the [Middle East] peace +process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature +— it would not have led to a rupture — it would have changed the nature of American planning. "" +Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been adapted to stay in line with +Washington's, Meyer added: ""I wouldn't say it was as extremely poodle-ish as that."" +On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstbck, Britain's former ambassador to the United Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to +resign in 2002 if at least one security council resolution was not passed. He added: ""I regard our participation in the +military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically +observable backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the majority of people inside the +UK."" +Today new arguments are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and publish, the most sensitive +documents — including legal advice given to the government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the +lead-up to war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying that, unless ail such +material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. +But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key witnesses. The most revealing testimony +could come tomorrow when Sir David Manning, Blair's former foreign policy +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767480 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767480 Date: 07/31/2015 + adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo +which purportedly revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. According to reports, +the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January +which allegedly shows that Bush and Blair made a deal to carry out an invasion regardless of whether weapons of mass +destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears to be in direct contradiction with statements that +Blair made to parliament afterwards that Saddam would be given a final chance to disarm. +The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in UN colours and letting it fly low over +Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America +and Britain. +Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely independent. He may choose to say more +than Blair would like, according to one former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's +evidence that Meyer received ""new instructions"" in early 2005 indicating that it was a ""complete waste of time to +oppose regime change, so strong was the US determination to go down that road. +On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, +the top official in the Foreign Office, will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint intelligence +committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that officials in London knew even before Bush came to +office in 2001 that there were ""voices"" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts also told +the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush +that he would support military action ""to bring about regime change"". +According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 as ""scrambling to establish a link +between Iraq and al-Qaida"" — a connection that was ""so far, frankly unconvincing"". Or. Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the +Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to give evidence about the military +planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and +what, if any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also be urged to divulge the level of +intelligence he received on the likelihood of an attack with chemical or biological weapons. +After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The former chief of the defence staff, Admiral +the Lord Boyce, could be asked whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant Genera! Sir +Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General David Wilson, senior British military adviser +to the US military's central command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for the +conflict. +The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who +will come armed with knowledge of the view from Baghdad. +When Chilcot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new year to former ministers, including Jack +Straw, the former foreign secretary, and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the highly +controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal — which may turn out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry — in +January. +In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute +blame. But after only one ✓eek it is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. +The Washington Post +Afghanistan: The speech you'll miss +By Jim Hoagland +Sunday, November 29, 2009 +Dec. 1, 2009: +My fellow Americans, +This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots writing an acceptance speech for the +only Nobel Peace Prize ever awarded for making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. +Which is: steamed. +I want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. +First, to let those know-it-ails, Generals Petraeus and McChrysta!, know one more thing: This is the last big troop +increase you get, so make it work. +I am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's presidency.

Britain and Europe are riveted by Chilcot, especially official +circles. The objective correlative, of course, is trust in any U.S. +administration and deep skepticism about the Afghanistan project.

Mandelson was eager to Miliband to take the EU post, allowing +Mandelson to be appointed foreign minister. When Miliband refused, Mandelson's +ambition was thwarted, and tried to seize the EU position for himself, but +without any backing in Europe or from Gordon. The Europeans thought him mad. +Suddenly, they recalled his had or strange behavior as UK commissioner to the +EU. When Christine Ashton was named, Mandelson briefed the press on her lack of +credentials, etc. Ashton, as it happens, had worked the press to try to help +Mandelson when he had gotten into the mess that led to his first resignation. +Those inside the government who remember this see it as an illustration of the +principle that no good deed goes unpunished. Mandelson, in a snit, is now not +speaking to Gordon as though his rejection were Gordon's fault. +One more item: Did you read Jim Hoagland in the Washington Post today?

But they do +not rise to the top of their trade without also knowing how to stick in the +knife. +At times the Chilcot inquiry into Britain's involvement in Iraq since 2001, +which opened last week, resembled a gentlemen's club moved to the_ sanitised +surroundings of the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre in Westminster. +Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment politely questioned other +Oxbridge-educated pillars of the establishment about who said what to whom in +which memo. The inquiry is a peculiar mixture of the old and the new, the open +and closed. It is conducted in the language of Whitehall, yet beamed live by +webcam to the world. +Critics are convinced that, for all Sir John Chilcot's promises to the contrary, +it will turn out to be another Whitehall whitewash. For the cognoscenti, little +new information has yet emerged, and when the final report is written it will +not seek to apportion blame. Yet beneath the equivocation and mandarin-speak, +Whitehall seems, in as much as it knows how, to be using Chilcot to wield the +scalpel. Throughout the first week the pent-up frustrations of diplomats and +career civil servants over the way Tony Blair + +and George Bush secretly plotted to oust Saddam Hussein, bypassing the ""official +channels"" in which they operate, has been there for all to see. +Chilcot is said to have been warned by his Whitehall friends that many witnesses +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 +will be ready to unburden themselves - finally to take revenge. In session after +session they have appeared to do that. Blair's reputation has been sliced like +salami day after day. +Sir William Ehrman, the Foreign Office's forMer director of international +security, volunteered last Wednesday that the threat from Saddam's supposed +weapons of mass destruction was known to be limited. +In the gentlest way he drove in the dagger. ""We did, I think on 10 March [2003], +get a report that chemical weapons might have remained disassembled and Saddam +hadn't yet ordered their assembly. There was a suggestion that Iraq might lack +warheads capable of effective dispersal of agents."" +Ever the diplomat, however, Ehrman went on to say that the intelligence warnings +had not made any difference to the case for war. ""I don't think it invalidated +the point about the programmes he had. It was more about use,"" he said. But he +had set the tone. +On Thursday, Sir Christopher Meyer, UK ambassador in Washington from 1997 to +2003, who has already criticised the government over Iraq in his memoirs, went +for Blair, mercilessly comparing his qualities as a war leader to those of +Margaret Thatcher. ""I'm not trying to make a party political point here +whatsoever, but quite often I think about this: what would Margaret Thatcher +have done?"" Meyer asked. ""I think she would have insisted on a coherent +political and diplomatic strategy and she would have demanded the greatest +clarity about what the heck happened if, and when, you removed Saddam Hussein."" +A former press secretary to John Major who can speak like a mandarin but, +equally, can talk like a layman, he said Blair had failed miserably to extract a +price from George Bush for his loyalty. ""We could have achieved more by playing +a tougher role... if, for example... Tony Blair had said: 'I want to help you, +George, on this, but I have to say, in all honesty, that I will not be able to +take part in any military operation unless we have palpable progress on the +[Middle East] peace process and we have absolute clarity on what happens in Iraq +if it comes up.' I think that would have changed the nature - it would not have +led to a rupture - it would have changed. the nature of American planning. "" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 +Even when defending UK policy, he was on the offensive. Asked if policy had been +adapted to stay in line with Washington's, Meyer added: ""I wouldn't say it was +as extremely poodle-ish as that."" +On Friday, Sir Jeremy Greenstock, Britain's former ambassador to the United +Nations, told Chilcot he had threatened to resign in 2002 if at least one +security council resolution was not passed. He added: ""I regard our +participation in the military action in Iraq in March 2003 as legal but of +questionable legitimacy, in that it did not have the democratically observable +backing of the great majority of [UN] member states, or even perhaps of the +majority of people inside the UK."" +Today new arguments are raging over whether the inquiry will have access to, and +publish, the most sensitive documents - including legal advice given to the +government by the former attorney general, Lord Goldsmith, during the lead-up to +war. Nick Clegg, the Liberal Democrat leader, has written to Gordon Brown saying +that, unless all such material is published, the inquiry will be a sham and the +public's sense that it has been denied the facts will remain. +But it will still be essential viewing nonetheless. This week will see more key +witnesses. The most revealing testimony could come tomorrow when Sir David +Manning, Blair's former foreign policy +adviser, is certain to be asked about his authorship of a memo which purportedly +revealed details of a secret meeting between Bush and Blair in January 2003. +According to reports, the five pages of secret documents, known as the Manning +memo, recorded the White House meeting on 31 January which allegedly shows that +Bush and Blair made a deal to carry out an invasion regardless of whether +weapons of mass destruction were discovered by UN weapons inspectors. It appears +to be in direct contradiction with statements that Blair made to parliament +afterwards that Saddam would be given a final chance to disarm. +The memo also disclosed that Bush floated the idea of painting a U-2 spyplane in +UN colours and letting it fly low over Iraq to provoke Saddam into ordering it +to be shot down, providing a pretext for the subsequent invasion by America and +Britain. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 +Manning, educated at Oriel College, Oxford, and a career diplomat, is fiercely +independent. He may choose to say more than Blair would like, according to one +former colleague. He could also be asked to either confirm or deny Meyer's +evidence that Meyer received ""new instructions"" in early 2005 indicating that it +was a ""complete waste of time"" to oppose regime change, so strong was the US +determination to go down that road. +On Tuesday, Edward Chaplin, the Foreign Office Middle East director at the time +of the invasion, and Sir Peter Ricketts, the top official in the Foreign Office, +will appear. Ricketts, a former chairman of Britain's powerful joint +intelligence committee, has already given evidence to the inquiry alleging that +officials in London knew even before Bush came to office in 2001 that there were +""voices"" in Washington calling for Saddam to be removed from power. Ricketts +also told the inquiry that, until March 2002, Whitehall distanced itself from +regime change. Only one month later, Blair told Bush that he would support +military action ""to bring about regime change"". +According to documents leaked five years ago, Ricketts described the US in 2002 +as ""scrambling to establish a link between Iraq and al-Qaida"" - a connection +that was ""so far, frankly unconvincing"". On Thursday, Sir Kevin Tebbit, the +Ministry of Defence's permanent secretary during the invasion, will be asked to +give evidence about the military planning. Chilcot will, most likely, want to +know when the government first began to amass resources for the war and what, if +any, preparations were made for the aftermath of an invasion. Tebbit could also +be urged to divulge the level of intelligence he received on the likelihood of +an attack with chemical or biological weapons. +After Tebbit, a succession of heavy-hitting military men will give evidence. The +former chief of the defence staff, Admiral the Lord Boyce, could be asked +whether he believes that the invasion was legal. On Friday, Lieutenant General +Sir Anthony Pigott, former deputy chief of the defence staff, and Major General +David Wilson, senior British military adviser to the US military's central +command between 2002 and 2003, will be questioned about military planning for +the conflict. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 +The last witness to appear this week will be Dominic Asquith, Britain's +ambassador to Iraq between 2006 and 2007, who will come armed with knowledge of +the view from Baghdad. +When Chilcot has made his way through the officials, he will turn in the new +year to former ministers, including Jack Straw, the former foreign secretary, +and Blair himself. The panel has said that it will also begin to examine the +highly controversial issue of whether the invasion was legal - which may turn +out to be the focal point of the whole inquiry - in January. +In his final report, which is not expected until late 2010 at the earliest, +Chilcot has said he will not seek to attribute blame. But after only one week it +is already clear where much of Whitehall believes that lies. +The Washington Post +Afghanistan: The speech you'll miss +By Jim Hoagland +Sunday, November 29, 2009 +Dec. 1, 2009: +My fellow Americans, +This is not the speech you expected to hear. But my wordsmiths are tied in knots +writing an acceptance speech for the only Nobel Peace Prize- ever awarded for +making speeches. So I am going to tell you how I really feel about Afghanistan. +Which is: steamed. +I want to accomplish three goals tonight without naming them. +First, to let those know-it-alls, Generals Petraeus and McChrystal, know one +more thing: This is the last big troop increase you get, so make it work. +I am not going down the incrementalist road that wrecked Lyndon Johnson's +presidency. This is not July 1965, when Westmoreland jumped the shark of +escalation in Vietnam and then never stopped asking for more troops. For all the +trouble he has been, Dick Holbrooke helped by recalling that history in the +shadowboxing that dominated my long war council meetings. +Joe Biden has been good in there, too. He's been willing, though not happy, to +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 +be characterized in the media as being ready to bug out now. This helped us push +back against McChrystal's effort to box me in at 40,000 additional U.S. +soldiers. +Denis McDonough, my strategic communications man, sold Biden-as-dove +brilliantly. Wasn't somebody just saying I should promote Denis? Maybe it was +Denis? +Never mind. That tactic won me room to maneuver toward a more realistic number +of, say, 23,000 new combat troops, 5,000 additional trainers and a ""NATO surge"" +of 5,000 foreign troops. +That's my second unspoken goal: to come out of this buildup speech Without +losing the left of the Democratic Party -- while being able to refute John +McCain's charges that I ignored my own generals. Triangulation lives. +Bush put the generals in the limelight to sell the Iraq surge after he lost all +credibility, and David Petraeus's performance was dazzling. Which presents two +big problems. Petraeus is the only person who could aet the Republican +nomination in 2012 and make a serious run against me. (I get paid to think +ahead.) +And if the generals box me in, civilian control. of the military in this country +becomes a mockery. Clinton was afraid of the military; Bush was deep in hock to +it. I've got to get the right balance back. +That's why I need Bob Gates and Jim Jones. Those who scoffed at my keeping on +Bush's defense secretary, and then making a retired Marine four-star I hardly +knew my NSC guy, were not thinking that moments like this would come. I already +was. +Gates has maneuvered flawlessly through my waterboarding-by-leaks on +Afghanistan. He will sell my final number to the uniforms as the ""floor"" for +U.S. troops that Petraeus argues we need for three years. But Gates knows I will +make it a ceiling. +We can't afford an open-ended commitment. I put Peter Orszag, as good a budget +overseer as you can find, front and center for the photographers in that last +war council. Many missed it, but NBC's Andrea Mitchell got it right away. No +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 +wonder she's married to Alan Greenspan. +I will bet that Stan McChrystal never drew up a budget in his life. +Jones tells me these Special Operations commanders are used to getting whatever +they ask for, especially since September 11th. Nobody on the Hill will deny them +anything. +Jones is also squeezing the Europeans to join the battle and is getting results, +even from the Germans. What is it Jones says? Maybe the worst thing of all would +be to be perceived to lose in Afghanistan and then have the Europeans say: Well, +you never asked for more help at the crucial time. Makes sense to me. +We have sent NATO members the numbers we think they can and should provide, +country by country. That new secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen, is +pulling out the stops, visiting the capitals to get commitments. +""Say it now, pay it later,"" we tell the Europeans. They have until mid-2010 to +deploy their new units. But I need pledges now so I can get across tonight that +this is NATO's war, not Obama's war. That's unspoken-goal number three. +So I have frontloaded the speech with allusions to this being about an exit +strategy, without boxing myself in on timing, and am presenting the ""civilian +surge"" as being as essential as the troop buildup. That helps set up my Oslo +speech. And who knows? It may even work out that way. If God blesses us all. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767482 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +4147,C05767483,ARE YOU HEAR NOW?,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2009-11-29T05:00:00+00:00,2015-07-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_JulyWeb/Web_050/DOC_0C05767483/C05767483.pdf,F-2014-20439,HRCEmail_JulyWeb,,H,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Sunday, November 29, 2009 3:09 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767483,07/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767483 Date: 07/31/2015 +RELEASE +IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sunday, November 29, 2009 3:09 PM +To: H +Subject Are you hear now? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767483 Date: 07/31/2015 + " +4148,C05767486,SPANISH LANGUAGE DOCUMENT - COMUNICADO CONJUNTO DE LOS GOBIERNOS DE HAITI Y ESTADOS UNIDOS,Estados Unidos Da America,Haiti,75,2010-01-17T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0058/DOC_0C05767486/C05767486.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05767486,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767486 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +COMUNICADO CONJUNTO DOS +GOVERNOS DO HAITI E DOS ESTADOS UNIDOS DA AMERICA +DIVULGADO EM PORTO PRINCIPE, HAITI +17 DE JANEIRO DE 2010 +0 Presidente Rene Preval do Haiti e a Secretaria de Estado Hillary Rodham Clinton +dos Estados Unidos da America reuniram-se em Porto Principe, ape's o catastredico +terremoto de 12 de janeiro de 2010 e suas tragicas consequencias, e divulgaram o seguinte +comunicado conjunto: +Reconhecendo: +a longa historia de amizade entre os povos do Haiti e dos Estados Unidos e seu respeito +mirtuo pela respectiva soberania; +o terrivel sofrimento do povo do Haiti, corn a perda de vidas em grande escala, lesOes +fisicas generalizadas e danos amplos a infra-estrutura pitblica e propriedade privada; +a necessidade urgente de uma resposta imediata aos pedidos do Governo do Haiti e a +importancia primordial de implementacao de trabalhos de resgate, assistencia, recuperacao +e reconstrucao corn seguranca, rapidez e eficacia; +os desafios correntes e sem precedentes que o Governo do Haiti enfrenta; e +a conversa entre o Presidente Obama e o Presidente Preval, ocorrida em 15 de janeiro de +2010, que salientou as necessidades urgentes do Haiti e sua populacdo, a promessa feita +pelo Presidente Obama, de dar o apoio total do povo norte-americano para o Governo e +povo do Haiti, tanto no trabalho imediato de recuperacao como na iniciativa de +reconstrucao a longo prazo, e o compromisso assumido por ambos os Presidentes, de +coordenar a assistencia oferecida pelas varias partes, inclusive o Governo do Haiti, a +Organizacao das NacOes Unidas, os Estados Unidos e os varios parceiros e organizacOes +internacionais presentes no terreno; +0 Presidente Preval, em nome do Governo e povo do Haiti, acolhe as iniciativas +essenciais empreendidas pelo Governo e povo dos Estados Unidos no Haiti, em apoio +recuperacao e a estabilidade imediatas e a reconstrucao do Haiti a longo prazo, e solicita dos +Estados Unidos a assistencia necessaria para reforcar a seguranca em apoio ao Governo e povo +do Haiti e a Organizacao das Nacties Unidas e aos parceiros e organizacOes internacionais +presentes no terreno; • +A Secretaria Clinton, em nome do Governo e povo dos Estados Unidos, reafirma a +intencao dos Estados Unidos, por meio de sua assistencia, de dar apoio ao povo do Haiti neste +momento de grande tragedia; e +0 Presidente Preval e a Secretaria Clinton conjuntamente reafirmam que os Governos do +Haiti e dos Estados Unidos dardo continuidade a cooperacao nos termos deste entendimento +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767486 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767486 Date: 08/31/2015 +miltuo, corn o objetivo de promover os trabalhos de resgate, assistencia, recuperacao e +reconstrucao com o maxim° de seguranca e eficacia possivel. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767486 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4149,C05767487,MUBARAK CALL SHEET,"Flores, Oscar","Abedin, Huma",81,2010-02-06T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0063/DOC_0C05767487/C05767487.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Mubarak Call Sheet,Oscar Flores,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Saturday, February 6, 2010 8:43 AM",F-2014-20439,C05767487,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Oscar, can u print this asap for hrc.

The judge mentioned he had seen last week's television interview +(http://www.infobae.comkienera1/485486-601275-0-Un-norteamericano-desaparecido-hace-casi-dos-meses-el- +packCYADADs) in which I described Roberto Yaryura's disappearance on September 19, 2009, and he remembered the +photo of the unique tattoo on Roberto's right arm mentioned in the interview and widely published in the national +media here throughout Argentina. +The judge sent me the pictures of the body taken at the location where it was found, and I sent one picture, a close-up +shot of the tattooed right arm to Roberto's best friend (who recently flew down here for 10 days to search for him) for +identification. He and the artist who designed the unique tattoo, also one of Roberto's best friends, confirmed for me +over the phone that it was, indeed, Roberto's tattoo in the photo. +I notified Roberto's siblings, together with their families, and they +asked me +until after their sister had given her the news in person later tonight. I confirmed that I would wait until tomorrow to +contact to discuss her preference for disposition of Roberto's body and transfer of the remains. +Judge Summer noted that they are conducting an autopsy on Roberto's body to rule out foul play, and that the case is +now considered an open criminal investigation until the autopsy results determine he died of natural causes. Local +medics estimate the time of death to be approximately thirty to forty days prior the body's discovery. The judge added +that he would do everything possible to expedite any necessary paperwork with respect to disposition of the body once +they have ruled out any criminal aspect to this case. would like to fly down next week, if +possible, to pick up his remains to bring them back to the United States. +I would like to thank my colleagues in Uruguay, Brazil, Paraguay, and Bolivia, copied here, for all their efforts to track +down Roberto.

This piece is prominently featured today in the Telegraph. It is a Tory paper. But it +reflects more or less the current conventional wisdom in the UK. Of course, it's much worse in France. +Sarkozy's unleashed id is the barometer. You are still perceived as separate and even increasingly as +compensatory. The more coverage of your NI role, the better, if it can be done. (Let me discuss with Shaun on a +strategy on how to brief.) The China/Google stand was critical. What can be done in Middle East, esp Syria, +push back against Avigdor Lieberman's recent unpleasant noises, with new US ambo going? Just a thought. +And: the attitude that the president's cancellation of attendance at US-EU summit is simply a merited position is +self-defeating. First, the Europeans learned from the press, not through diplomatic channels beforehand, treated +as second class. Second, of course the EU is what it is, esp after the new nonentities named at its head at Merkel +and Sarko's behest. But to dismiss the EU because of that is smug and complacent. If the EU has no agenda, it's +really up to the US, as it was for 50 years before.

Then, in his first year in office, he made 10 trips abroad to +21 countries, making him the most travelled of all United States presidents in their first 12 months. +So it came as a rude shock to Europeans last week when Obama decided not to bother with the European Union +knees up Madrid in May - particularly miffing Prime Minister Jose Luis Zapatero of Spain, who, like the +American president, campaigned on his opposition to the Iraq war. +American officials intimated that they were unimpressed by European bickering over who would sit next to the +Obamas at the summit dinner and even over who would be the first leader to shake the hand of the person that +Oprah Winfrey anointed as ""the One"" in Iowa back in 2008. +Perhaps Obama himself was a touch irritated by Nicolas Sarkozy's new habit of mocking him. ""Obama has been +in power for a year, and he has already lost three special elections,"" the French president said last week. ""Me, I +have won two legislative elections and the EU election. What can one say I've lost?"" +The discomfort of Europe's elites indicates growing a realisation that perhaps he's just not that into them. The +fact that Hillary Clinton, Obama's Secretary of State, felt the need to point out that ""European security remains +an anchor of US foreign and security policy"" spoke volumes. +There is little sign that Obama feels the kind of instinctive belief in transatlantic alliances that, for instance, +President George W Bush felt. In Washington, the much-ballyhooed ""special relationship"" - a phrase that Team +Obama views as betraying a British inferiority complex and cloying neediness - has never felt less special. +That's partly because Gordon Brown is viewed as so toxic by the Obama administration that dealings with +Downing Street are in a state of virtual suspended animation. But there are no indications yet that a Prime +Minister David Cameron will have the red carpet rolled out for him. +One of Obama's conceits was that he would be the ""Pacific president"", looking west from his native Hawaii to +China, India and Japan rather than east to America's traditional allies. It's as if Obama has embraced Donald +Rumsfeld's much-maligned concept of ""old Europe"" - and broadened it. +The Czech Republic and Poland were told in late-night phone calls that planned missile defence sites on their +territory were being abandoned. +Mid-level American officials often produce plans and papers about Helmand that overlook the fact that British +troops have been fighting and dying there since 2006. +Obama's foreign policy sometimes seems like it does not go much further than the concept of""le monde, c'est +moi"". The limits of his transcendental personality in terms of results are becoming as apparent abroad as they +are at home. +Relations with China sunk to a new low last week after the Obama decided to sell $6.4 billion in arms to +Taiwan and to meet the Dalai Lama. After kowtowing to China by avoiding discussion of human rights in a +humiliatingly ineffectual trip last November and failing to see the Tibetan monk, Obama's decided to get tough +- though to what end is unclear. +Having offered an ""unclenched fist"" to Iran, Obama has been almost casually rebuffed. As Sarkozy put it: +""What have these proposals for dialogue produced for the international community? Nothing but more enriched +uranium and more centrifuges."" +In the Middle East, Obama's popularity is sliding among both Israelis and Arabs and the prospects of +meaningful peace talks are dire. Requests to Nato for more troops to train Afghan security forces have fallen +largely on deaf ears. Suddenly, the US no longer feels like the indispensable nation. +For all his talk of reaching out to the world and his apologies on behalf of America, there is little that Obama +has achieved. He is liked but not respected - and there are growing doubts about whether he has the backbone or +the domestic political capital to deliver. +Obama is finding that foreign policy is about more than just talk and turning up to take a bow. For its part, the +world is realising that the man it championed as one of its own is stumbling towards isolationism. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767515 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4169,C05767516,H: NEW DEVELOPMENT NI.

So important was this social networking site to +supporting the pro-democracy ""green movement"" that the U.S. State Department contacted corporate +representatives of Twitter to ask them to delay a routine maintenance shutdown of the microblogging site. +In the strife-torn Democratic Republic of the Congo, U.S. officials are working with radio and cell-phone operators +to reach isolated militia fighters with messages from former combatants now urging them to put down their arms +and return to civilian life. +In Pakistan, the State Department paid for 24 million text messages as a way to help support a new mobile-phone- +based social network, Humani Awaz, or ""Our Voice."" The gesture helps increase U.S. government engagement with +the Pakistani people, strengthens communities, and can assist small businesses in gaining better market +information. +These are just some of the latest examples of what is being called ""21st-century statecraft,"" using the capabilities of +modern communications and social networking technologies to win hearts and minds and improve the American +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767562 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767562 Date: 08/31/2015 +image abroad. It represents an important leap forward from traditional U.S. outreach efforts, such as Voice of +America and Radio Free Europe. +The adroit use of social networking sites, such as Twitter, Facebook, and others, coupled with text messages and +increasingly widespread mobile-phone technology, can help lend support to existing grassroots movements for +freedom and civil rights, connect people to information, and help those in closed societies communicate with the +outside world. It also promises to give a strong economic boost to small entrepreneurs and the rural poor. The World +Bank estimates that for every 10 percent increase in the number of mobile-phone users in a developing country, +there is nearly a 1 percent increase in its economic output. +Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has championed the use of communications technology in diplomacy and +development. In November in Morocco, she announced the ""Civil Society 2.0"" initiative, which will offer training +and advice to local nongovernmental organizations around the world on how to use the Internet and other digital +media to organize, communicate, and be more effective. +She has also appointed a special advisor for innovation, Alec Ross, to examine ways to employ communications +technology to enhance traditional diplomatic and development activities. In a recent speech, he said that the State +Department is using ""these new connection technologies to engage and empower our interlocutors in new and +different ways that are consistent with our foreign policy goals."" +The applications vary widely. In Mexico, for instance, where drug-related crime and violence is at crisis level, the +United States is helping set up a mobile-phone-based system so citizens can report crimes and tips anonymously. In +Afghanistan, the State Department and the Pentagon are working with the private sector to expand mobile-phone +banking, an innovation that has been successful in Africa. The hope is to improve the finances of people in rural +conflict areas. When violence displaced up to 2 million people from Pakistan's Swat Valley, the State Department +quickly set up a mobile texting system so concerned Americans could make $5 donations for refugee relief with just +a few keystrokes. +Technology offers new ways to perform the traditional task of spreading the American message. During President +Barack Obama's major Africa speech in Ghana last year, for instance, the government offered SMS texts of his +remarks in English and French to cell-phone users across Africa and enabled them to post questions and comments. +But social networking technologies are more often used to enable individuals across a country, or across the globe, to +interact, engage, and become empowered. Although this means that our government will not be able to control the +message as well as it might with conventional public diplomacy tools, I believe it is a risk worth taking. Terrorists +and other anti-American propagandists have for some time been using the Internet and other techniques to +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767562 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767562 Date: 08/31/2015 +communicate and recruit. America needs to beat them at their own game, especially since we invented most of the +technology. +I would encourage the administration and our diplomats to be nimble, flexible, and innovative as they pursue a wide +range of foreign-policy initiatives that use these new communication and connection techniques. Diplomacy and +development are our best means of winning the global war of ideas, and we must come to the battle armed with the +most modern tools at our disposal. +Alec Ross +Senior Advisor for Innovation +Office of the Secretary of State +(202) 647-6315 +RossAJ@State.gov +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767562 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4192,C05767566,ANN,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-01-07T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0051-0056/DOC_0C05767566/C05767566.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Fw: Ann,H,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Thursday, January 7, 2010 2:18 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767566,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767566 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Thursday, January 7, 2010 2:18 PM +To: H +Subject: Fw: Ann +Fyi +From: Pally, Maura M +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Thu Jan 07 13:35:30 2010 +Subject: Ann +is so wonderful.

It becomes the one place of stability for the kids where they have people +UNICEF workers they can relate to they have educational material so they can start back with school,"" said Alissa +Silverman, deputy director for UNICEF in the southeast region. ""UNICEF is tracing family members and caring for +children orphaned by the disaster to protect them from harm or exploitation."" +The number of children on the island is staggering. Forty-six percent of Haiti's population (nearly 10 million) is under the +age of 18, more than half of the population is under 21. Prior to the earthquake, four of every 10 children lived in homes +with mud floors or severely overcrowded conditions. +""My first concern is who is with the kids how many of our nannies our ok and who is watching the kids and then all the +kids on the streets,"" said Chareyl Moyes, the program manager for Wasatch International Adoption. Moyes works with a +number of different agencies and orphanages in Haiti. She said early reports about how much damage they suffered are +good. +""But, there is going to be a concern about child trafficking so both Haitian and the United States governments are going +to be careful about forging ahead with new adoptions. The need is going to be great,"" Moyes said. +A lot of families in the U.S. according to a number of international adoption agencies across the country said some +people were at the very end of the process to adopt a child from Haiti. ""Now, it will set everyone back,"" Moyes said. +Even though child trafficking is a major concern for Moyes she worries about the immediate help children need trapped +in the rubble from a country in ruins. ""How long will that child survive without somebody rescuing them,"" Moyes said. +http://www.westportnow.com/index.php?/v2/26294/ +Save the Children Emergency Team Reaches Haiti +An emergency response team from Westport's Save the Children successfully reached Haiti today and worked quickly +with staff already on the ground to organize the distribution of tents, medicine, and toiletries to children and families in +desperate need, the charity said. +""Save the Children is extremely concerned about the well-being of children in Haiti at this critical moment and we are +doing everything we can to quickly get relief supplies to those who need it most,"" said Charles MacCormack, president +and CEO of Save the Children, in a news release. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767608 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767608 Date: 08/31/2015 +""Our staff on the ground is pulling out all the stops to overcome hurdles like blocked roads and unreliable access to the +airport."" +""This is just the beginning of what will be a comprehensive five-year effort to build back better in Haiti.

And they resent Washington for +pressing their government now to fight against extremists — and suspect that they will be abandoned again. The fact +that many of the extremists are on Pakistan's territory and threatening Pakistan's government has not shifted that +thinking or mitigated that resentment. +A good part of this, of course, is the failure of Pakistan's government, which has still not adequately explained that this is +not just America's fight.

The day she arrived, +extremists detonated a car bomb at a crowded market in Peshawar that killed at least 100 people. The Nation +newspaper dismissed the visit as a mere ""PR exercise, but who will buy what the US is selling is difficult to imagine, +beyond the already compliant government."" +Polls show that an overwhelming majority of Pakistanis dislike and mistrust the United States.

And they resent Washington for +pressing their government now to fight against extremists — and suspect that they will be abandoned again. The fact +that many of the extremists are on Pakistan's territory and threatening Pakistan's government has not shifted that +thinking or mitigated that resentment. +A good part of this, of course, is the failure of Pakistan's government, which has still not adequately explained that this is +not just America's fight.

Sending +a letter to Czech leader Vaclav Klaus encouraging him not to sign the Lisbon Treaty, as though Cameron were +already Prime Minister, he has offended Sarkozy, Merkel and Zapatero. Within the Conservative Party the +Shadow Foreign Minister William Hague has arduously pressured for an anti-EU stance, despite his assurances +to you that Tory policy toward Europe would be marked by continuity. Cameron has attempted to straddle +factions, fending off calls for a national referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. But this letter is proof positive of his +tilt to the Tory right on Europe. The European leaders understand that the letter signals his future policy and are +reacting accordingly. Cameron's presumptive strike has accelerated the predicted Tory-European split from +post-election to pre-election. Whether this affects Merkel's attitude on Blair and the EU presidency remains +unclear, but Cameron's high-handed behavior is precisely the sort of thing that provokes her. See the Guardian +report below: +Guardian +Europe leaders incensed by David Cameron's letter +Sarkozy, Merkel and Zapatero criticise Tories for attempt to-delay treaty +Niche: Watt and 1 anTi-aynor +Friday 30 October 2009 22.21 GMT +Leaders of three of the most powerful countries in Europe have strongly criticised David Cameron at the EU +summit over Conservative plans to scupper the Lisbon treaty. +Nicolas Sarkozy, Angela Merkel and Jose Luiz Rodriguez Zapatero are understood to have privately criticised +the Tory leader after he sent a handwritten letter to the Czech president Vaclav Klaus, who is refusing to sign +the treaty. The letter was seen as an attempt to influence the Czech Republic, the only country not to have +ratified the treaty. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767682 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767682 Date: 07/31/2015 +Senior British sources familiar with thinking at the highest levels of the EU say that the leaders of France, +Germany and 5-_,ain all raised questions about the Cameron letter. +It is understood that Cameron encouraged Klaus to delay the ratification of the treaty by setting out Tory policy +to hold a referendum in Britain on the treaty if it has not been ratified by all member states. +The sources have told the Guardian that: +•Sarkozy was overheard telling Gordon Brown that he was incensed by Cameron's letter, which the French saw +as an attempt to wreck the Lisbon treaty. +•Merkel was also said to be upset by Cameron's letter. The German chancellor is understood to have echoed. +concerns of senior figures in her CDU party, such as the former European parliament president Hans Gert +Poettering, that Cameron's behaviour had been untrustworthy. +•Zapatero - who addressed the recent Labour party conference and will have to negotiate directly with +Cameron if he wins the election because Spain holds the EU's rotating presidency until July 2010 - made clear +to diplomats that he regarded Cameron's letter as damaging and an attempt to scupper the treaty. +The interventions by the EU leaders come as the Tories plan to abandon their two-year campaign to hold a +referendum on the Lisbon treaty. Senior Tories told the Guardian that Cameron will set out his thinking in the +coming weeks if, as expected, the Czech President finally ratifies the treaty. +It is understood that Cameron will drop his pledge to hold a referendum on the treaty on the grounds that it is +impossible to open a treaty that has entered EU law. A Tory government would instead focus on repatriating +social and employment laws, in effect restoring the British opt-out from the social chapter. This has been +sprinkled around various EU treaties since Tony Blair ended the opt-out in 1997, meaning that its measures +could only be restored to Britain with the agreement of all member states. +Brown yesterday used his appearance at the summit, where he held a series of formal and informal one-to-one +meetings with EU leaders, to launch a strong attack on the Tories' approach to Europe. Speaking of the Tory +decision to abandon the main centre-right EPP grouping in the European parliament in favour of a smaller +group consisting mainly of fringe parties from the hard right in eastern Europe, the prime minister said: ""The +Conservative party are standing apart from the mainstream in Europe.. +""They are part of a very small group of minorities - of 23 people apart from the Conservative party.

Sending a letter to Czech leader Vaclav Klaus encouraging him not to sign the Lisbon +Treaty, as though Cameron were already Prime Minister, he has offended Sarkozy, Merkel and +Zapatero. Within the Conservative Party the Shadow Foreign Minister William Hague has +arduously pressured for an anti-EU stance, despite his assurances to you that Tory policy toward +Europe would be marked by continuity. Cameron has attempted to straddle factions, fending off +calls for a national referendum on the Lisbon Treaty. But this letter is proof positive of his tilt to +the Tory right on Europe. The European leaders understand that the letter signals his future . +policy and are reacting accordingly. Cameron's presumptive strike has accelerated the predicted +Tory-European split from post-election to pre-election. Whether this affects Merkel's attitude on +Blair and the EU presidency remains unclear, but Cameron's high-handed behavior is precisely +the sort of thing that provokes her. See the Guardian report below: +Guardian +Europe leaders incensed by David Cameron's +letter +Sarkozy, Merkel and Zapatero criticise Tories for attempt to delay treaty +Nicholas Watt and Ian Traynor +guardian.co.uk, Friday 30 October 2009 22.21 GMT +Leaders of three of the most powerful countries in Europe have strongly criticised David +Cameron at the EU summit over Conservative plans to scupper the Lisbon treaty. +Nicolas Sarkozy, Angela Merkel and Jose Luiz Rodriguez Zapatero are understood to have +privately criticised the Tory leader after he sent a handwritten letter to the Czech president +Vaclav Klaus, who is refusing to sign the treaty. The letter was seen as an attempt to influence +the Czech Republic, the only country not to have ratified the treaty. +Senior British sources familiar with thinking at the highest levels of the EU say that the leaders +of France, Germany and Spain all raised questions about the Cameron letter. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767683 Date: 07/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767683 Date: 07/31/2015 +It is understood that Cameron encouraged Klaus to delay the ratification of the treaty by setting +out Tory policy to hold a referendum in Britain on the treaty if it has not been ratified by all +member states. +The sources have told the Guardian that: +•Sarkozy was overheard telling Gordon Brown that he was incensed by Cameron's letter, which +the French saw as an attempt to wreck the Lisbon treaty. +•Merkel was also said to be upset by Cameron's letter. The German chancellor is understood to +have echoed concerns of senior figures in her CDU party, such as the former European +parliament president Hans Gert Poettering, that Cameron's behaviour had been untrustworthy. +• Zapatero — who addressed the recent Labour party conference and will have to negotiate +directly with Cameron if he wins the election because Spain holds the EU's rotating presidency +until July 2010 — made clear to diplomats that he regarded Cameron's letter as damaging and an +attempt to scupper the treaty. +The interventions by the EU leaders come as the Tories plan to abandon their two-year campaign +to hold a referendum on the Lisbon treaty. Senior Tories told the Guardian that Cameron will set +out his thinking in the coming weeks if, as expected, the Czech president finally ratifies the +treaty. +It is understood that Cameron will drop his pledge to hold a referendum on the treaty on the +grounds that it is impossible to open a treaty that has entered EU law. A Tory government would +instead focus on repatriating social and employment laws, in effect restoring the British opt-out +from the social chapter. This has been sprinkled around various EU treaties since Tony Blair +ended the opt-out in 1997, meaning that its measures could only be restored to Britain with the +agreement of all member states. +Brown yesterday used his appearance at the summit, where he held a series of formal and +informal one-to-one meetings with EU leaders, to launch a strong attack on the Tories' approach +to Europe. Speaking of the Tory decision to abandon the main centre-right EPP grouping in the +European parliament in favour of a smaller group consisting mainly of fringe parties from the +hard right in eastern Europe, the prime minister said: ""The Conservative party are standing apart +from the mainstream in Europe. +""They are part of a very small group of minorities — of 23 people apart from the Conservative +party. They are standing on the fringes of Europe. That is a huge mistake for British interests."" +A Tory spokeswoman said: ""We have never concealed the fact that we sent the letter ...

Imprisoned since 2003, he had been on a hunger strike for +several weeks. We first heard he was seriously ill last week. Yesterday, he died at the prison +clinic. +Zapata Tamayo paid the ultimate sacrifice for his commitment to changing Cuba's +system. He commands our respect. No one has starved himself to death in a Cuban prison in +over forty years. Surely the Cuban government could have and should have intervened earlier to +prevent this tragedy. His death is on their conscience. +I have always felt — and continue to believe — that if we are truly going to do a better job +of standing with the Cuban people, then we need to be closer to them and in greater numbers. +We need to travel freely to the island to meet and learn from them, and they from us. I hope that +day comes soon so we can tell all the Cuban people that we remember the sacrifice of Orlando +Zapata Tamayo. +Insert for the Record ""Activists: Cuba Dissident Dies After Hunger Strike,"" Washington Post, +February 23, 2010 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767712 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4251,C05767715,WARNING: COULD NOT SEND MESSAGE FOR PAST 4 HOURS (RESENT BY CDM),H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-02-26T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0067/DOC_0C05767715/C05767715.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Warning: could not send message for past 4 hours,H,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Friday, February 26, 2010 11:13 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767715,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Not sure why these came back - scroll down for messages,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767715 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Friday, February 26, 2010 11:13 PM +To: H +Subject Fw: Warning: could not send message for past 4 hours (RESENT BY CDM) +Attachments: ATT1011450.txt; Fw: Thank you.

It becomes the one place of stability for the kids where they have people +UNICEF workers they can relate to they have educational material so they can start back with school,"" said Alissa +Silverman, deputy director for UNICEF in the southeast region. ""UNICEF is tracing family members and caring for +children orphaned by the disaster to protect them from harm or exploitation."" +The number of children on the island is staggering. Forty-six percent of Haiti's population (nearly 10 million) is under the +age of 18, more than half of the population is under 21. Prior to the earthquake, four of every 10 children lived in homes +with mud floors or severely overcrowded conditions. +""My first concern is who is with the kids how many of our nannies our ok and who is watching the kids and then all the +kids on the streets,"" said Chareyl Moyes, the program manager for Wasatch International Adoption. Moyes works with a +number of different agencies and orphanages in Haiti. She said early reports about how much damage they suffered are +good. +""But, there is going to be a concern about child trafficking so both Haitian and the United States governments are going +to be careful about forging ahead with new adoptions. The need is going to be great,"" Moyes said. +A lot of families in the U.S. according to a number of international adoption agencies across the country said some +people were at the very end of the process to adopt a child from Haiti. ""Now, it will set everyone back,"" Moyes said. +Even though child trafficking is a major concern for Moyes she worries about the immediate help children need trapped +in the rubble from a country in ruins. ""How long will that child survive without somebody rescuing them,"" Moyes said. +http://www.westportnow.com/index.php?/v2/26294/ +Save the Children Emergency Team Reaches Haiti +An emergency response team from Westport's Save the Children successfully reached Haiti today and worked quickly +with staff already on the ground to organize the distribution of tents, medicine, and toiletries to children and families in +desperate need, the charity said. +""Save the Children is extremely concerned about the well-being of children in Haiti at this critical moment and we are +doing everything we can to quickly get relief supplies to those who need it most,"" said Charles MacCormack, president +and CEO of Save the Children, in a news release. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767729 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767729 Date: 08/31/2015 +""Our staff on the ground is pulling out all the stops to overcome hurdles like blocked roads and unreliable access to the +airport."" +""This is just the beginning of what will be a comprehensive five-year effort to build back better in Haiti.

Feel free to share with whomever +you'd like. +I have little idea of the larger context here — how many schools/kids are we looking at, but one thing we've learned in the +US in the last 5 years is that good teachers are the #1 lever of change in education. If we got 1,000 really great teachers +into Port-au-Prince (w/ even a modicum of support and materials), they'd make a big difference and touch the lives of +30,000-60,000 kids. +I think this is totally doable, in short-order, in a magnificent way that could set the foundation for a well-educated +generation of Haitians who could lead the country out of poverty, to self-sustainability, self-governance and openness. +To do-- +Goal 1: Bring immediate influx of human capital into education sector in concentrated areas, and map out plan for long- +term development of teachers/human capital. +Goal 2: Build curriculum, instructional materials that will support current Haitian elementary age students learning the +academic and related skills they need to lead country to long-term sustainability. +Goal 3: Build/reconstruct schools and training centers that will support high quality education, and on their own, motivate +and inspire children, families, and communities to send children to school. +Goal 4: Create (develop) family, community, economic, cultural, socio-political infrastructure that encourages and support +all children going to school through elementary school, with goal of eradicating illiteracy and expanding the average level +of education for Port-a-Prince residents to the [6thi8to grade. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767787 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767787 Date: 08/31/2015 +Goal 1: Human Capital: +Create Haiti Teacher Corps. Model loosely off of Peace Corps/Teach for America, CityYear +Teacher corps (US): Recruit, train, and place 500-1000 teachers from US this spring and summer. We can do +this. +o Recruiting: Limit variable this year, and build up and out as we go. This spring we go to Georgetown, +Univ of Maryland and Univ of Miami and University of Florida/S. Florida. Given crisis, current opportunities +in the US, we could easily hire 500 college graduates of very high quality from 4 major universities under +2 year contracts. +o Summer institute is 8 weeks in US; language training, intensive teacher training; onsite at two major +universities (College Park, Univ. of Miami). +o Language/culture training: TDB – find the best folks out there to train in French/Creole, and Haitian +culture, current socio-political situation – 50% of the training program. +o Academic training: We'll work w/ TFA and others and develop 8 week intensive teacher training program +for other 50% of program. +Teacher Corps (Haitian): +o I need to learn more on this... but this would likely be critical both short-and long-term. +o Need to know who/how to recruit. Avoid political pitfalls; focus on what we've learned about good +teachers—you want people who have excelled in something—almost anything; so, we set up recruiting +team on the ground in Haiti to find cohort of 500 new teachers; training is nearly identical to US teaching +corp (i.e., modeled off of TFA summer institute). +o Training: either bring them over to US to live and learn w/ US counterparts, or if that's too precarious, look +to move them out of the city for 6-8 weeks over the summer. Find space 100 miles out and build summer +camp/institute for them. +Teacher leaders/principals/trainers: +o Much easier than you'd think. Huge network now in the charter and ed reform community of hard- +working, mission-driven teacher-leaders who would take this on. +o (US Based) TFA/New Teacher Project alumni are in schools all over the US. They have taught for 2-6 +years, want a chance to do something totally meaningful. This is is. We'll recruit 100-200 of them, and +they will lead cohorts of 20 teachers... +o Haiti-based: Less clear what the teacher-leader pipeline is like...but we can figure out and get whoever +we can. +Compensation, related. +o We should build dorms/apts for people. Serve food in cafeteria's on-site at the schools; have community +kitchens available, etc. +o All US staff gets paid minimally during their tour/commitment, but earns stipends/completion bonuses. If +folks convinced their expenses will be covered, they will have money to spend, we then backload +this. So, might be a $10,000 salary and a $10,000 bonus upon completion. You live cheap; two years +later, you get check that amounts to what you would have saved if you had been living, working, paying +bills, etc. in the US. +o Not sure about how to do Haitian pay. But structure similarly. +What do we need to accomplish the Human Capital Goal? +o In the US, not much. +• A small staff of the right people could recruit, interview, assess and hire 500 corp members and +we could get that done between Feb 1 and June 1, 2010—easily. +• Cost: +• 2-4 staff on board by 2.1; 10-15 staff on board by 3.1.10; that team will get everyone +hired by 6.1.10 +• Summer training institutes: 500-100 teachers, housing at universities; training/supervision +staff at 1:20 ratio to recruits +• 8.1.10—Teaching Corp heads to Haiti, ongoing cost of housing, stipends/salary, health +care, training/supervision, etc (we could build out draft operating budget quickly, but not +doing that now). +o In Haiti, less clear, but I think if we identify the right people, we'd concurrently recruit, interview, assess, +hire 500 people. +• Staffing and Cost: See notes above re: US recruitment and training. Assess current status in +Haiti, and set up staffing, recruiting, hr function. +Concurrently, we have team that is developing summer training materials, and working on curriculum/content (see +below). +Concurrently, we have team that is working on facilities (see below) +Concurrently, we have team working on community outreach (see below). +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767787 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767787 Date: 08/31/2015 +Goal 2: Build a robust curriculum and teacher instruction grogram +We need to immediately tilt teaching and learning in the early grades to the skills and contents that are necessary in Haiti +so that it people can enable it grow and develop economically, politically. +I am not a curriculum expert, but I think this is really doable, as well, so long as we get the right team—which in this case +is likely a team of leading experts from Haiti, possibly other countries that have intentionally undergone an intensive ramp- +up in the education sector, and US curriculum writers. +US-Team: +o Similar to above, there is incredible talent in the charters, and in a few major cities where structural +education reform has taken hold. +o We just need a small team to join us for 1 year to help us jump start the project. +Haiti/Other countries: +o We need to talk w/ folks in Haiti and find current state of curriculum, standards, instructional guides, +books, materials, etc. +Backwards Mapping: This is not as hard as it seems. +o We get the right people to help us figure out what a 10-12 year old Haitian should know and we map +backwards, all the way to preschool. +o Once we get an end goal in key areas – math, reading, writing, history/social studies, science:. .we map +backwards and start to define what we will teach. +o And once we decide this, we use some of the tools we've developed in the US in the last 5-10 years to +help us write curriculum, produce instructional materials. +o This will be a jumbled mess to start... but will work and sort itself out. +o We build it in clusters and in modules that can be swapped in and out, and mixed and matched. You +want to give teachers tools so they can be successful with kids of different ages and abilities, particularly +early on when we're likely to be operating more like one-room school houses than grade level schools +we're used to here. +o We build in assessments, standards, and teach teachers how to recognize when kids are falling behind, +how to build in supports and tutorials. +o The goal is to get large cohort of younger kids, I think, who start to learn and be taught to standards... all +the while, we push hard in the upper grades, knowing it will be a lot less clear (and possibly much more +directed towards helping current teens develop basic skills they need to be employable and contributing +members of the rebuilding efforts –so this may be basic literacy, key vocational skills, etc.). +Cost/staffing: Small US team that works with Haitian/other country team. Within a year or so, this team should be +Haiti-based, w/ possible long-term support/membership from the US team. The start-up team sets up framework, +establishing learning standards, builds tools and cranks out curricular materials—some of which are developed +specifically for Haiti, but many of which may be translations from high quality materials from US and elsewhere. +Goal 3: Build high quality, durable schools that entice families, children into education. +In spite of current situation, this seems like another very doable goal. +Get some schools built quickly to entice attendance. +o Once rebuilding starts up, we can build schools quickly, affordably. And once they are up, if done +correctly, they will immediately be attractive to families and communities. This, ironically, will be the case +if we can get schools up quickly—while much of the other infrastructure is still in poor shape. Families will +want kids in schools if the schools are safe, offer food, health care and structure—much of which will be +wanting in devastated, poor neighborhoods. +I'm not facilities expert, either; this is an area where we can look to other examples in the developing world for +best practices. Nonprofits and governments have worked together to build great schools in many places in Africa, +South America, and even recently in the Middle East. +To think about: Consider technology and technology infrastructure as a part of the initial construction plan so it's +not add-on later. +To think about: Keeping the schools small, functional, really basic will help us get them up; including significant +health care and related services complicates planning, build-out, but increases functionality. +Cost/staffing: I don't have enough knowledge about this, particularly in Haiti. I think it would be quite easy to find +the best models and quickly develop turnkey model for design/build that would ensure functionality, safety, and +cost compliance. +Once we have this, we either develop this capacity internally, or contract out and get these built, quickly. +Goal 4: Create family, community impetus for all school age children to be in school +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767787 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767787 Date: 08/31/2015 +This is both the end-game and a necessary condition along the way. +The simpleton in me thinks that highly engaged, spirited teachers, inside safe, modern school buildings that serve +healthy meals at no charge will, for some period of time (years) be a catalyst for socio-political change. And if we +can get traction for a few years, and get large cohorts of young children actively engaged in school, then it will be +hard to unwind the long-term, salutary benefits. +Clearly, if families remain in poverty, and adults have no means to earn enough money to support families, then +children of all ages, but particularly as they move toward teen years, will be attracted to alternatives other than +school—some legitimate, but low-wage, and others illegal and destructive. +In short-term, while we are developing program, we should be doing extensive community outreach and in all +cases, getting neighborhoods and communities engaged in the pre-planning process. Families everywhere get +excited about a new school, new teachers, and a new chance. And w should play on this—this will enable us to +do necessary planning around enrollment, student/family needs, etc. We shouldn't sort of move slowly from no +school to some school, we should go from no school to a new school and fresh start—even if that delays opening +a bit. The first day should be major community event, that everyone can reflect upon and hold to in difficult times. +Gotta run.

On Friday, January 7, after reading a lengthy +statement on TV denouncing his wife repeatedly for her affair (with a teenager), Peter Robinson assured Shaun +Woodward privately that no financial irregularity was involved. Then, within hours, it was reported that Iris +Robinson secured 50,000 pounds from government contractors to give to her lover to set up a restaurant. Peter +Robinson in fact knew of the money all along. Robinson had an opportunity to save himself, perhaps, by +declaring himself for engagement on devolution, freeing himself of the DUP hardliners and throwing himself on +public opinion, but was incapable of acting. By accepting his withdrawal as First Minister for six weeks today, +the DUP has maintained a modicum of Robinson's authority, though it is in suspended animation. His +temporary replacement, Arlene Foster, according to Shaun, comes from the modernizing wing of the party. +Shaun does not know if her naming indicates a potetinally positive direction or makes her a prisoner of those +who put her in place. The silence of Sinn Fein is telling. Not reacting in horror, Sinn Fein is unsure whether this +is good or bad news, and it's willing to wait. But the waiting game is untenable without forward movement on +devolution. +Here's why: Without positive steps from Foster and the DUP, the situation will become swiftly unacceptable to +Sinn Fein. It will speak out. Martin McGuinness will have to express his opposition to DUP recalcitrance and +paralysis. Earlier, Shaun sent signals to leaders of the DUP that Robinson's resignation would provoke a series +of events leading rapidly to Shaun calling an election in which they would be tainted by him and suffer a +catastrophic defeat, followed by the general UK election (almost certainly May 6) that would compound their +misery. Shaun was trying to push them not to scuttle the peace process but to embrace it and move forward. +Robinson's six weeks hiatus puts the DUP in a fugue state, a twilight zone of disorientation, that cannot be +sustained even this week. Shaun is also working through the Irish government to communicate to Adams not to +provoke a full-blown crisis, ruining peace prospects in order to advance the dream of a united Ireland. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767794 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767794 Date: 08/31/2015 +There's more to come, hour by hour, but the situation remains extremely murky. It should clairfy within days. +On the latest coup attempt against Gordon: The plotters, Patricia Hewitt and Geoffrey Hoon, had no one behind +them. It was a fizzle. This is the third and likely the last attempt. It's the end of the coup season. Ironically, the +coup was announced just as Gordon had had his best week, last week, after David Cameron flip-flopped on a +marriage tax and Gordon walloped him in Question Time. The coup obviously halted that momentum and +shifted the subject to disunity within the Labour Party. Gordon and Labour lost a bit of time and ground it will +have to make up. But various polls show almost no negative movement of Gordon in a matchup with Cameron. +He has pulled to within ten points and remains steady. However, a poll in the Guardian today shows that while +Gordon has actually improved his standing within the party the party itslef has taken a hit. +David Miliband was the loser in this coup attempt. He took seven hours before responding, issuing a tepid +statement saying he expected that labour would win under Gordon's leadership. His vacillation marked him. +Niether willing to strike nor support, he seems unsure, wobbly. His performance has made people wonder if +he's the man to be leader after Gordon. David's brother, Ed, the environment minister, meanwhile, reacting +swiftly in his backing of Gordon, and has emerged as a sterling fellow. Mandelson, for his part, waited to go on +TV to express his public support. No one trusts him, yet he's indispensable. If somehow Gordon wins, he would +likely be the first one defenestrated.

I just want to be sure their readers get an accurate picture of +Hillary Clinton's conduct during the campaign. +Smith's Politico article makes the case that the Clintons have few remaining defenders: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767805 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767805 Date: 08/31/2015 +What's notable about the highly publicized release of ""Game Change,"" however, is the virtual silence from the Clinton +camp. The lack of public outrage seems to mark the sputtering end of what was once known as the Clinton political +machine and underlines a fact that onetime Clinton loyalists acknowledge: The book's primary sources about the former +candidate and current secretary of state are her own former staffers and intimates. As a result, there is no campaign of +veteran Clintonites spinning the press corps and trying to pre-emptively discredit the book's scathing depiction of Hillary +Clinton as a rudderless candidate and a cheerleader for vicious tactics against eventual winner Barack Obama.... ""Game +Change"" peels back a decade of careful renovations off Hillary Clinton's carefully constructed public face, casting her in +the terms that defined her at her lows in the mid-1990s: scheming, profane, sometimes paranoid, often tone-deaf. +Here's my response: as a former adviser and a senior staffer/department head at her presidential campaign, I'll +proudly defend Hillary Clinton and I'll do whatever I can to counter lies, smears and mischaracterizations. +Let me start by recounting how I first got to know her. Nearly four years ago, I was asked by her long-time +communications maven Howard Wolfson to join her senate campaign. I was very happy running my site, the +Daou Report, and advising a number of organizations in the then-nascent field of digital media consulting. I +considered it an honor to be asked, but I knew it was a life-changing decision. Heeding Howard's warning that +once I became part of 'Hillaryland' anything I said or did could become a media story (examples here and here), +I had a series of conversations with people I trusted and whose unique perspective could help me make an +informed decision. +I discussed it first with close friends and family. +I then spoke to Joan Walsh at Salon, who hosted/supported my site and always gave great advice. I spoke to +Arianna Huffington, who openly warned me against giving up the world of blogging to join the Clinton team. I +spoke to David Brock at Media Matters, who had a long history with the Clintons and understood the media +landscape in great depth. I spoke to John Kerry, who I respect deeply and for whom I worked in the bitterly +contested 2004 election. I fought on his behalf when he was trailing badly going into the 2004 primaries, and +after he won the nomination, I lived, worked, ate and slept in his war room for the epic battle against +Bush/Cheney/Rove. He understood and taught me the rigors of a campaign better than anyone I knew. And +because one of my overarching tasks for Clinton was to connect her to the netroots, I spoke to bloggers like +Digby, Markos (Kos) and others to get a sense of the challenge ahead. +In the end, I couldn't miss the once in a lifetime opportunity to work with one of the most dynamic, inspiring +women in the world. And even though the entire focus when I joined her was on the senate campaign, I, like +many others, was looking ahead to the 2008 race. I've blogged for years about the pervasive abuse of women +and the rampant sexism that affects our world, and the idea of electing a woman president was beyond exciting. +Our first meeting was set for 15-30 minutes but lasted over an hour. Contrary to the myth that she was clueless +about the Internet, Hillary was well aware of the importance of technology, of the role of the online community, +and most importantly to me, the value of a strong progressive infrastructure centered around blogs, CAP, Media +Matters and the like. We discussed the Middle East and my childhood in Beirut during Lebanon's bloody civil +war. Not unexpectedly, she knew virtually everything about every topic we discussed. And she was as down to +earth and funny as anyone I'd ever met in politics -- or outside politics. +A week later, fighting flared up in Lebanon. Very early on a Sunday morning, my home phone rang. I answered +groggily. It was Hillary, calling to make sure my friends and family in Beirut were OK. That's the person she is, +the person I encountered throughout the campaign, privately and publicly. +But this is not about psychoanalyzing Hillary Clinton or probing her personal attributes -- others have made a +living doing that. It's not about making her out to be a saint. Nobody is. This is about describing how she ran her +campaign and how she treated her opponents when the cameras and microphones were off. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767805 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767805 Date: 08/31/2015 +Was I on every call and at every strategy session? No. Can I vouch for every single thing said and done at the +campaign. Of course not. But having participated in countless senior strategy meetings, crisis management and +rapid response drills and emergencies, ""war rooms within war rooms"" (a term used by Heilemann/Halperin), +debate prep, calls, emails and private conversations with the candidate, and having slept with my BlackBerry +under my pillow and been stationed at the center of her communications operation for the duration of the +campaign, I can confidently state that Hillary Clinton did not push for 'vicious' or dirty tactics against any of her +opponents, nor did she encourage or 'cheer on' that behavior from her staff. The ethos of the campaign, which +she conveyed in word and deed, was that she would win because she was best prepared, worked the hardest and +had the most compelling ideas. +She was centered, dignified and focused throughout, although her frustration and pain did show through at some +moments. She knew the media environment was stacked against her, against any woman. She knew what she +was up against and drove forward into the furious headwinds of sexism and rightwing-fueled Clinton-hatred. +For Hillary Clinton, it wasn't about being a woman, it was about being the best. +The unraveling of her huge lead in the polls in late 2007 is an incredibly convoluted and harrowing tale of +words, actions, decisions, interpersonal dynamics, internal campaign struggles, dysfinictionality, careless +mistakes, leaks, ""surrogates gone wild,"" (my term for overzealous supporters), reactions, underreactions, +overreactions, strategic/tactical brilliance and incompetence, emotional highs and lows on the part of all the +candidates and campaigns. Anyone who tries to reduce it to a few pivotal moments or to a simple character +narrative does history an injustice. It was literally a minute by minute unfolding, accelerated and complexified +by millions of online activists and commentators, who could shape and reshape conventional wisdom in a +matter of moments. Any single decision could have changed the course of events -- and of history. I have little +tolerance for critics who simplify the whole election as some sort of reflection of the supposedly terrible +character of Bill and Hillary Clinton, conveniently ignoring the Obama campaign's brutally effective hardball +tactics and overlooking the infinite dimensions -- and messiness -- of a presidential image/message war. +The fact is, both campaigns slogged it out, played rough, and one came out victorious. And it would be wrong +to act like only Hillary faced historic obstacles. Barack Obama was a formidable candidate and opponent who +faced almost insurmountable odds. He deserves all the credit for winning and even more credit for appreciating +Hillary's value when the contest ended. +Still, it's important to state for the record, contra Game Change (or at least Politico's interpretation of the book), +that if anything, Hillary's campaign let her down, not the reverse. Nor was it just one person's fault. Her entire +senior team bears responsibility. I take responsibility for the role I played. It's easy to demean her when you're +an anonymous source for a book (and an easy way to absolve oneself of guilt), but let's get real: far too often, +she carried the campaign through sheer force of will and through an endless wellspring of personal fortitude. +Nobody wants to relive 2008, but history is being written now. Generations from today, students will read about +a historic campaign where barriers were shattered, and I for one, don't want the wrong story to be told. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767805 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4300,C05767812,BLOOMBERG CALL SHEET,H,"Balderston, Kris M",112,2010-01-12T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0057/DOC_0C05767812/C05767812.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Bloomberg Call Sheet,,"Balderston, Kris M ","Abedin, Huma","Tuesday, January 12, 2010 5:40 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767812,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"<> Attached is the call sheet you requested for Mayor Bloomberg.

In mid-December, we detected a highly sophisticated and targeted attack on our corporate +infrastructure originating from China that resulted in the theft of intellectual property from Google. +However, it soon became clear that what at first appeared to be solely a security incident--albeit a +significant one--was something quite different. +First, this attack was not just on Google. As part of our investigation we have discovered that at least +twenty other large companies from a wide range of businesses--including the Internet, finance, +technology, media and chemical sectors--have been similarly targeted. We are currently in the +process of notifying those companies, and we are also working with the relevant U.S. authorities. +Second, we have evidence to suggest that a primary goal of the attackers was accessing the Gmail +accounts of Chinese human rights activists. Based on our investigation to date we believe their attack +did not achieve that objective. Only two Gmail accounts appear to have been accessed, and that +activity was limited to account information (such as the date the account was created) and subject +line, rather than the content of emails themselves. +Third, as part of this investigation but independent of the attack on Google, we have discovered that +the accounts of dozens of U.S.-, China- and Europe-based Gmail users who are advocates of human +rights in China appear to have been routinely accessed by third parties. These accounts have not +been accessed through any security breach at Google, but most likely via phishing scams or malware +placed on the users' computers. +We have already used information gained from this attack to make infrastructure and architectural +improvements that enhance security for Google and for our users. In terms of individual users, we +would advise people to deploy reputable anti-virus and anti-spyware programs on their computers, to +install patches for their operating systems and to update their web browsers. Always be cautious +when clicking on links appearing in instant messages and emails, or when asked to share personal +information like passwords online.

People wanting to learn more about these kinds of attacks can read this U.S. +government report (PDF), Nart Villeneuve's bloq and this presentation on the GhostNet spying +incident. +We have taken the unusual step of sharing information about these attacks with a broad audience not +just because of the security and human rights implications of what we have unearthed, but also +because this information goes to the heart of a much bigger global debate about freedom of speech. +In the last two decades, China's economic reform programs and its citizens' entrepreneurial flair have +lifted hundreds of millions of Chinese people out of poverty. Indeed, this great nation is at the heart of +much economic progress and development in the world today. +We launched Google.cn in January 2006 in the belief that the benefits of increased access to +information for people in China and a more open Internet outweighed our discomfort in agreeing to +censor some results. At the time we made clear that ""we will carefully monitor conditions in China, +including new laws and other restrictions on our services. If we determine that we are unable to +achieve the objectives outlined we will not hesitate to reconsider our approach to China."" +These attacks and the surveillance they have uncovered--combined with the attempts over the past +year to further limit free speech on the web--have led us to conclude that we should review the +feasibility of our business operations in China. We have decided we are no longer willing to continue +censoring our results on Google.cn, and so over the next few weeks we will be discussing with the +Chinese government the basis on which we could operate an unfiltered search engine within the law, +if at all. We recognize that this may well mean having to shut down Google.cn, and potentially our +offices in China. +The decision to review our business operations in China has been incredibly hard, and we know that +it will have potentially far-reaching consequences. We want to make clear that this move was driven +by our executives in the United States, without the knowledge or involvement of our employees in +China who have worked incredibly hard to make Google.cn the success it is today. We are committed +to working responsibly to resolve the very difficult issues raised. +Posted by David Drummond, SVP, Corporate Development and Chief Legal Officer +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767816 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4305,C05767817,,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-01-12T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0057/DOC_0C05767817/C05767817.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Tuesday, January 12, 2010 6:41 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767817,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Statement by the President on the Earthquake in Haiti +""My thoughts and prayers go out to those who have been affected by this earthquake.

Or maybe he expected that Halperin would check back with him on any quotes +he planned to use? +Whatever they were thinking, they were wrong. +Reid was talking about the reasons why, even though he had publicly professed neutrality in the vicious Democratic +primaries of 2008, he had secretly encouraged then-Illinois Sen. Barack Obama to challenge another member of his +caucus, then-New York Sen. Hillary Clinton. And amid all the talk of Obama's oratorical gifts, he let slip something else: +Obama could win the White House because he was a ""light-skinned"" African-American ""with no Negro dialect, unless he +wanted to have one."" +The authors write in ""Game Change,"" published this weekend, that Reid had made the remark ""privately.""

As far as I'm concerned, the book is closed."" +Relieved to have the president's solid backing, Reid's aides decided that their toughest challenge would be to prevent +any prominent African-American Democrats from attacking Reid too harshly — or calling for his resignation. +Reid's team correctly anticipated that Republicans would demand his head.

The team calculated that as long as the attacks looked like partisan shouting, Reid +would benefit. +Aides say their boss quickly understood the danger and spent much of Saturday working a call list of about 30 prominent +African-Americans across the country. On the calls, he apologized for his words and argued that the book's main +takeaway should be that he had quietly supported Obama over Clinton, long before those made his feelings public. +Among those he called were the Rev.

Following up on the Secretary's request, when would you like to regroup about +communications support in Pakistan? +As food for thought, I've been talking with She's a great source of insight and +information on the ground, with a valuable independent perspective. She is very tuned into the government's +cornmunications challenges and opportunities. +In her view, while the need is more urgent than ever, the government does have positive programs and policies that +would generate good will if people knew about them. Communications seems to suffer both from a lack of perspective - +politicians are obsessed with politics in the capital, rather than the needs of people at the grassroots - and a lack of both +practical expertise and proactive strategy. They need a plan for publicizing initiatives that benefit people, as well as +hands-on training and support to execute effectively. +This sounds very similar to the situation my team dealt with in Lebanon, where we worked with the government, +political parties and NG0s. We learned not to let a state of crisis be an obstacle to moving forward with a +communications program - they're always in crisis and, as you know, effective communications is part of the long-term +solution. +I know there may be concern about working with US consultants.

Commercial sections, restaurants, and art galleries +will be built, turning it into a bustling tourist zone. For the first time, the local residents +will have the legitimate right to live in this neighborhood. +The Mayor of Jerusalem, Nir Barkat, has introduced his new development plan for the King's +Garden area, located south of the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. +The proposal — soon to be brought before the local and regional planning committees for +discussion — aims to create a mixed use of the area, making it attractive to both tourists and +the local residents. The project will comprise several interlaced elements: +I. Restoration of the garden: The western part of the Gan Hamelech area will be restored +to its historical condition as a site of international as well as national prominence. The +Gihon Spring will once again flow along the Kidron Valley, the orchards will be +replanted, and a blooming garden will be grown, which would be open to both visitors +and the neighborhood residents. +2. Development of commerce, restaurants and tourism: In the eastern part of the +neighborhood, about 3000 sq.m of land will be approved for the construction of +commercial areas, restaurants, artists' workshops, souvenir and local art shops, all on the +ground level. +3. Housing units for the welfare of the district residents: On the eastern side, above the +commercial level, housing units will be built to satisfy the needs of the local residents. +4. Infrastructure: The area, having been designated in the past to be an open recreational +space, has not been planned or developed. The Jerusalem Municipality intends to design +urban infrastructure, including the upgrade of the road and sewage infrastructure and +other local facilities. +5. A public facility building: According to the plan, large building for the welfare of the +neighborhood residents will be constructed on a 2000 sq.m site designated to include +public areas, schoolrooms, day care centers, kindergartens, workout gyms, infant welfare +centers, etc. The center, in addition to other establishments promoted by the municipality +for the welfare of the residents of the eastern part of the city, will provide suitable +solutions for the neighborhood residents. Underground a parking lot will be built for +about 140 vehicles. +This plan constitutes a precedent inasmuch as apart from enforcing the law upon illegally +built houses, it also enables and helps residents to build new homes in accordance with the +law. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767858 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767858 Date: 08/31/2015 +This plan is considered a bold move due to the following reasons: +According to the national law, the King's Garden is at present classified as an open +recreational space. Some of the neighborhood houses are under continuous legal +proceedings, including fines, demolition orders, etc. +Throughout the years and especially after regulating the sewage infrastructure in 1992, +extensive parts of the park have been destroyed, and dozens of structures have been +erected without permits. Thus, within a short time another greenbelt has ceased to exist in +the city. +The area, which for centuries has been preserved as an open space, and until 1967 had +included no more than four buildings, has turned into a slum, lacking infrastructure, +public institutions, and devoid of any planning. +The municipal plan for the King's Garden neighborhood intends to restore the area to its +natural state, the way it used to be as an open space for the benefit of residents and +tourists, while providing an appropriate solution to the needs of the inhabitants of the area +and creating tourist and business opportunities for the entire district. +The proposal considers the long lasting present situation whereby about 120 families +inhabit the neighborhood under difficult housing conditions. +The realization of this program is a particularly difficult process, in view of the fact that +the land in this area is not regulated. +The process requires shifting some buildings from the western side of the Kidron Valley +to its eastern side, which involves special legal procedures. +The process requires designing and judiciary creativity as well as the cooperation of +numerous factors. The Jerusalem Municipality acts vis-à-vis all these factors, among +which are the municipal legal department and the State Attorney, for the purpose of +finding a legitimate solution suitable for the recent design and enforcement of the +Jerusalem municipality. +The process requires determination on the part of government factors and cooperation on +the part of the local residents and their representatives. Whenever the residents cooperate, +the municipality will be flexible, but when they attempt to undermine the plan, the +municipality will remain firm in its implementation. +In the course of last year, dozens of meetings and debates were held with the +neighborhood residents and their representatives, with the intent of formulating a fair +program which would consider their needs as well as the extensive public interest, and +with the objective of establishing a fundamental trust in the intentions and the program of +the municipality. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767858 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4335,C05767864,HAITI,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-01-13T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0057/DOC_0C05767864/C05767864.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Fw: Haiti,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","DiMartino, Kitty; Douglas, Walter T; Mills, Cheryl D; MacInnes, Duncan H; Pally, Maura M; Mellott, Joseph","Wednesday, January 13, 2010 8:36 PM",F-2014-20439,C05767864,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767864 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Wednesday, January 13, 2010 8:36 PM +To: +Subject: Fw: Haiti +From: Dowd, Katie W +To: Sreebny, Daniel; McHale, Judith A +Cc: DiMartino, Kitty; Douglas, Walter T; Mills, Cheryl D; MacInnes, Duncan H; Pally, Maura M; Mellott, Joseph +Sent: Wed Jan 13 19:22:10 2010 +Subject: RE: Haiti +Just to update — we are now over $1.3 million raised from over 100,000 people mobilizing around the country to donate +to disaster relief through the Red Cross. +Amazing +From: Sreebny, Daniel +Sent: Wednesday, January 13, 2010 1:58 PM +To: McHale, Judith A +Cc: DiMartino, Kitty; Douglas, Walter T; Mills, Cheryl D; MacInnes, Duncan H; Sreebny, Daniel; Pally, Maura M; Dowd, +Katie W; Sreebny, Daniel; Mellott, Joseph +Subject: RE: Haiti +U/S McHale — Per your earlier request, here is some information from IIP related to Haiti: +• SPEAKER PROGRAMS: There are no U.S. Speakers in Haiti at present, and no plans to send any in the near +future. +• WEB SITES: Working in tandem with Katie Dowd and State PA, IIP web support staff used the Content +Management System (CMS) to update the Embassy Haiti web page (http://haiti.usembassy.gov/) with emergency +contact information, a note on U.S. assistance efforts, links to statements from President Obama and Secretary +Clinton, and information on ways global citizens could donate to disaster relief.

We +have an immediate challenge of how to respond this evening for tomorrow's paper and then how to respond tonight or +tomorrow when there is pick-up of the story. This will reverberate in Iraq as well. I assume that we are generally familiar +with what Mr. Farrington said in court. So what is our view of his allegations? Did we investigate what he claimed?

Ford Jr. had a telephone conversation with his friend Doug Band, the powerful counselor to +former President Bill Clinton. +Mr. Ford, the former Tennessee congressman who now works on Wall Street, wanted to discuss a potential challenge to +Senator Kirsten E. Gillibrand in New York's Democratic primary, a possibility he had flirted with for weeks. +But Mr. Band was not encouraging. He told Mr. Ford that with Democrats reeling from political setbacks across the +country, it would be bad for the party and his career if he entered the race. ""It's not the right thing to do,"" he said, +according to a person with direct knowledge of the conversation. +A Ford spokesman confirmed the call but denied that Mr. Ford had been discouraged from running or that he had been +told that doing so would hurt the party. The spokesman said Mr. Band told him the White House had pressured Mr. +Clinton into supporting Ms. Gillibrand. +Mr. Ford's decision not to run for the Senate, which he disclosed on Tuesday, came after he reached out to dozens of +donors, advocates and political leaders. In private conversations, the same worries emerged: that a race against Ms. +Gillibrand would be a brutal fight, dominated by endless debates about when he began paying taxes as a New York +resident and the sincerity of his support for gay marriage and abortion rights. +A campaign that he had hoped would focus on tax cuts and job growth would instead, he feared, become mired in +discussions of ""who got there first, and who meant it the most,"" on social issues, he told an associate. That might allow a +Republican opponent to swoop in and take the seat from the bloodied Democratic nominee. +What seemed to weigh on him, interviews with dozens of people who have met and spoken to his advisers revealed, +was not his status as a carpetbagger who had moved to New York from Tennessee, but rather the reality that there were +few easy constituencies for him to grab on to, outside of Wall Street, where he has worked since moving here in 2006. +Many spoke on the condition of anonymity because they did not want to be seen as disclosing private conversations. +As he hopscotched from city to city, charming crowds with bits of his Southern biography, signs of trouble for Mr. Ford +emerged. His voting record in Congress put him on the right fringes of state Democrats, and his $2 million-a-year job at +Merrill Lynch made it hard to run as a Scott Brown-style populist. +What seemed like an improbable, even impossible campaign had its roots in conversations, many dating back a year, +among Mr. Ford, 39, and a coterie of powerful friends from New York City, Washington and Los Angeles. +Over dinner last July at the Post House, a clubby steakhouse on the Upper East Side, Richard Plepler, a co-president of +HBO, urged Mr. Ford to restart his political career in New York. ""I think you should give this serious thought,"" he said, of +the Senate race. Mr. Ford replied that he would. +After the dinner, Mr. Plepler sent an e-mail message to Douglas E. Schoen, a top Democratic pollster, to bounce the idea +off him. Mr. Schoen was intrigued, and as he studied public polls, became convinced that Mr. Ford's best shot at +reaching the Senate was to wage a campaign against Ms. Gillibrand. +Over the next few months, Mr. Ford sounded out many of New York's wealthiest and most politically connected +executives, frequently over breakfast at the Regency Hotel on Park Avenue: Robert Wolf, the head of the United States +investment banking division at UBS; Ronald Perelman, the billionaire chairman of Revlon; and Steven Rattner, the +founder of Quadrangle, the private equity firm, all of whom are big Democratic donors. +Mr. Rattner told Mr. Ford, who is also a political analyst on NBC, that money would not be a problem. ""You can raise the +money,"" he told him in December. +Yet several big-name donors warned him that Ms. Gillibrand, a relentless campaigner, had beaten him to the punch. +""She has already locked a lot of Wall Street up"" was the message that Marc Lasry, a billionaire hedge fund manager, +conveyed to Mr. Ford in a telephone conversation. +As Mr. Ford traveled outside New York City, especially upstate, he found political support for Ms. Gillibrand to be +shallow, and the hunger for change palpable. The mayor of Syracuse, Stephanie Miner, told him that residents there +were ""scared and desperate"" about the economy, and she told Mr. Ford that Ms. Gillibrand was a rare presence in her +city. +But Ms. Gillibrand's strategy of portraying Mr. Ford as a showboating out-of-towner was starting to stick. In late January, +the head of the Brooklyn Democratic Party, Assemblyman Vito J. Lopez, held a luncheon for Mr. Ford, and invited local +lawmakers. During a two-hour question-and-answer session, Marty Markowitz, the borough president, pointed to +several up-and-coming state senators around the room and observed that all of them had greater experience in New +York politics than Mr. Ford. +""With all due respect,"" he asked Mr. Ford, ""why do you think you have what it takes to be New York's senator?"" +Even lawmakers who seemed open to a Ford candidacy warned him that peeling away support from Ms. Gillibrand +would be harder than it seemed. +Ruben Diaz Jr., the Bronx borough president, told Mr. Ford between bites of an omelet at a diner near his office, ""It's +difficult to make a strong case against her here."" Ms. Gillibrand, he explained, had just secured $4 million worth of +federal stimulus money to train his constituents for green jobs. Mr. Ford knew that some liberals would attack his +relatively conservative voting record but, those he spoke with said, he was taken aback by the depth of the anger he +encountered from advocates for abortion rights and gay marriage. +After reporters found examples of Mr. Ford calling himself pro-life during his time in Congress, Mr. Ford vehemently +pushed back, saying he had always supported a woman's right to choose. He assumed that would put the matter to rest. +It did not. ""He was dumbfounded that it kept tripping him up,"" a friend said. +One of Mr. Ford's top advisers, Bradley Tusk, the campaign manager for Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg's 2009 re-election, +arranged a meeting for Mr. Ford with a close Bloomberg ally, Kelli Conlin, the head of Naral-Pro Choice of New York. Mr. +Ford expected a polite conversation that would help neutralize a foe. Ms. Conlin, however, started the meeting by +quizzing Mr. Ford on his voting record and public statements. +Did he realize, she asked, that he had backed legislation that would outlaw late-term abortions even when a woman's +health is in danger? +Far from conciliatory, Mr. Ford wanted to know why Naral allowed Ms. Gillibrand to vote for a health care bill that cut +off financing for abortions. ""You gave her a pass,"" he said. Before leaving, Mr. Ford told Ms. Conlin that if he chose to +run he hoped to return to ask for the group's support. Ms. Conlin responded: ""We can never support you if you take +these positions."" Mr. Ford ""looked shocked,"" a person in the room said. +His meeting with gay rights advocates on Feb. 24 was rockier still. When he walked into the headquarters of the +Stonewall Democrats in the Chelsea neighborhood of Manhattan, he was greeted by signs that read ""Liar!"" and ""Go +home snake oil Harry,"" a reference to his recent support for gay marriage after having twice voted to outlaw it in +Congress. +A few days later, the results of a poll that Mr. Ford had paid for out of his own pocket began to trickle in, giving his +advisers pause. His negative ratings had increased slightly. A liberal primary electorate seemed wary about portions of +his record. Ms. Gillibrand remained vulnerable, the data showed, but Mr. Ford's chance seemed to be 50-50. ""It was not +a slam dunk, at all,"" said a person who spoke with him and was briefed on the data. +Mr. Tusk had told associates that to win, Mr. Ford needed 80 percent of the state's black vote, a tall order, but not +inconceivable for an African-American in a Democratic primary. But by the end of the week, Gov. David A. Paterson and +Representative Charles B. Rangel had become embroiled in ethics scandals.

He conceded that he had +intervened too late in the Honduras case but said that was because Zelaya waited until too late to extend the invitation, +asserting that he cannot intervene without an invitation from the executive branch. +""The truth is that we did everything possible to restore democracy in Honduras,"" he said. +Insulza said the Honduras experience showed the OAS needs to develop ""swifter and more flexible procedures"" to allow +it to respond more preemptively. This would include mechanisms for the OAS to ""make itself present in countries where +there are possible signs of instability."" +Insulza committed to ""unreserved support"" for the OAS human rights mechanisms, while respecting their autonomy. +""Democracy is more than elections and includes such essential components as respect for human rights, freedom of +expression, separation and independence of the branches of government, respect for the rule of law and the democratic +institutional system, and transparency and honesty in government. It also establishes a link between democracy, +development, and equity,"" he said. +He talked about ""modern multilateralism,"" modeled on the EU, as his vision for the OAS. ""Modern multilateralism,"" he +said, eschews Cold War divisions and ""we all work together to build on our common principles."" +On the management side, Insulza claimed he had inherited a bad financial situation at the OAS and improved it. +Nonetheless, he said, ""we need more resources."" He committed to seek them from non-traditional sources such as OAS +observers, NG0s, the private sector and academia. He claimed his efforts to improve transparency and accountability +had been commended by external auditors. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767936 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767936 Date: 08/31/2015 +Insulza committed to ""give fresh impetus to the gender issue at the OAS."" +Robert A.

It becomes the one place of stability for the kids where they have people +UNICEF workers they can relate to they have educational material so they can start back with school,"" said Alissa +Silverman, deputy director for UNICEF in the southeast region. ""UNICEF is tracing family members and caring for children +orphaned by the disaster to protect them from harm or exploitation."" +The number of children on the island is staggering. Forty-six percent of Haiti's population (nearly 10 million) is under the +age of 18, more than half of the population is under 21. Prior to the earthquake, four of every 10 children lived in homes +with mud floors or severely overcrowded conditions. +""My first concern is who is with the kids how many of our nannies our ok and who is watching the kids and then all the kids +on the streets,"" said Chareyl Moyes, the program manager for Wasatch International Adoption. Moyes works with a +number of different agencies and orphanages in Haiti. She said early reports about how much damage they suffered are +good. +""But, there is going to be a concern about child trafficking so both Haitian and the United States governments are going to +be careful about forging ahead with new adoptions. The need is going to be great,"" Moyes said. +A lot of families in the U.S. according to a number of international adoption agencies across the country said some people +were at the very end of the process to adopt a child from Haiti. ""Now, it will set everyone back,"" Moyes said. +Even though child trafficking is a major concern for Moyes she worries about the immediate help children need trapped in +the rubble from a country in ruins. ""How long will that child survive without somebody rescuing them,"" Moyes said. +httpliwww.westportnow.comAndex.php?/v2/26294/ +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767942 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767942 Date: 08/31/2015 +Save the Children Emergency Team Reaches Haiti +An emergency response team from Westport's Save the Children successfully reached Haiti today and worked quickly with staff +already on the ground to organize the distribution of tents, medicine, and toiletries to children and families in desperate need, the +charity said. +""Save the Children is extremely concerned about the well-being of children in Haiti at this critical moment and we are doing +everything we can to quickly get relief supplies to those who need it most,"" said Charles MacCormack, president and CEO of +Save the Children, in a news release. +""Our staff on the ground is pulling out all the stops to overcome hurdles like blocked roads and unreliable access to the airport."" +""This is just the beginning of what will be a comprehensive five-year effort to build back better in Haiti.

Ron Wyden (D-OR) wrote to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and US Trade +Representative Ron Kirk, asking them to ""communicate immediately to the Ugandan government, and President Yoweri +Museveni directly, that Uganda's beneficiary status under AGOA (African Growth and Opportunity Act) will be revoked should +the proposed legislation be enacted."" The legislation he's referring to, of course, is the draconian Anti-Homosexuality Bill that +is, as far as we are able to determine, awaiting its second reading before Parliament. +The State Department has now responded to Sen. Wyden's request. In a letter dated Feb 22, 2010 and released by Sen. +Wyden's office, Assistant Secretary for Legislative Affairs Richard Verma responded that the department is not only +""identified this issue as a priority in our bilateral relationship"" with Uganda (PDF: 112KB/2 pages): +We have reached out at the highest levels; Secretary Clinton and Assistant Secretary for African Affairs +Johnnie Carson have discussed our concerns directly with President Museveni. In addition, our embassy in +Kampala has been in close and regular contact with key political, media and civil society actors on the +ground in Uganda, registering strong opposition to the bill and warning the Ugandans of potential +consequences if it passes. The ambassador reiterated our concerns with President Museveni as recently as +January 25, and Under Secretary for Democracy and Global Affairs Maria Otero just visited Uganda on +January 29. She met and offered support and encouragement to civil society groups opposed to the +legislation and underscored our views to senior Ugandan officials. We are following this bill very closely. +In Museveni's remarks urging Parliament to 'go slow"" on considering the draconian legislation, ne cited a long conversation +with Secretary Clinton in declaring that the bill was not just a domestic issue but also had foreign policy considerations. +Assistant Secretary Verma characterized Uganda's proposed bill ""a serious affront to internationally accepted human rights +standards."" And interestingly, the State Department's concerns aren't limited to Uganda: +The State Department is also evaluating attitudes and laws that marginalize and criminalize and penalize the +LGBT community in Africa more broadly. We have asked all of our embassies in Africa to report on host +country laws and pending legislation that criminalizes homosexuality. In addition, our Bureau of +Democracy, Human Rights and Labor has established a task force on LGBT issues to strategize a United +States Government response to LBGT issues worldwide. +Copyright © Box Turtle Bulletin.

What America must do now—and why. +By Barack Obama I NEWSWEEK +Published Jan 15, 2010 +From the magazine issue dated Jan 25, 2010 +In the last week, we have been deeply moved by the heartbreaking images of the devastation in Haiti: parents searching +through rubble for sons and daughters; children, frightened and alone, looking for their mothers and fathers. At this +moment, entire parts of Port-au-Prince are in ruins, as families seek shelter in makeshift camps. It is a horrific scene of +shattered lives in a poor nation that has already suffered so much. +In response, I have ordered a swift, coordinated, and aggressive effort to save lives in Haiti. We have launched one of +the largest relief efforts in recent history. I have instructed the leaders of all agencies to make our response a top +priority across the federal government. We are mobilizing every element of our national capacity: the resources of +development agencies, the strength of our armed forces, and most important, the compassion of the American people. +And we are working closely with the Haitian government, the United Nations, and the many international partners who +are also aiding in this extraordinary effort. +We act for the sake of the thousands of American citizens who are in Haiti, and for their families back home; for the sake +of the Haitian people who have been stricken with a tragic history, even as they have shown great resilience; and we act +because of the close ties that we have with a neighbor that is only a few hundred miles to the south. +But above all, we act for a very simple reason: in times of tragedy, the United States of America steps forward and helps. +That is who we are. That is what we do. For decades, America's leadership has been founded in part on the fact that we +do not use our power to subjugate others, we use it to lift them up—whether it was rebuilding our former adversaries +after World War II, dropping food and water to the people of Berlin, or helping the people of Bosnia and Kosovo rebuild +their lives and their nations. +At no time is that more true than in moments of great peril and human suffering. It is why we have acted to help people +combat the scourge of HIV/AIDS in Africa, or to recover from a catastrophic tsunami in Asia. When we show not just our +power, but also our compassion, the world looks to us with a mixture of awe and admiration. That advances our +leadership. That shows the character of our country. And it is why every American can look at this relief effort with the +pride of knowing that America is acting on behalf of our common humanity. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767971 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767971 Date: 08/31/2015 +Right now, our search-and-rescue teams are on the ground, pulling people from the rubble. Americans from Virginia and +California and Florida have worked round the clock to save people whom they've never met. Our soldiers, sailors, +airmen, Marines, and Coast Guardsmen quickly deployed to the scene. Hand in hand with our civilians, they're laboring +day and night to facilitate a massive logistical enterprise; to deliver and distribute food, water, and medicine to save +lives; and to prevent an even larger humanitarian catastrophe. +Greater help is on the way. This will be a complex and difficult rescue and recovery operation, and it takes time to move +all of the resources necessary into such a devastated environment. But more American rescue teams, doctors, nurses, +and paramedics will arrive to care for the injured. More water, food, and supplies will be delivered. An aircraft carrier +has arrived. A naval hospital ship has been deployed. And additional aircraft and heavy equipment will restore +communications and clear roads and ports to speed relief and hasten recovery. +In addition, in this new century no great challenge will be one we can solve alone. In this humanitarian effort, we'll work +closely with other nations, so that our work on the ground is efficient and effective even under what are very difficult +conditions. We'll also join with the United Nations, which has done so much to bring security and stability to Haiti over +the years, and which has suffered terrible losses in this tragedy. And we'll partner with the constellation of +nongovernmental organizations that have a long and established record of working to improve the lives of the Haitian +people. +It is also important to note that all of these efforts will be bolstered by the continuing good will and generosity of +ordinary citizens. Governments alone are not enough. Already, a record number of donations have come in through text +messaging. Money has poured into the Red Cross and other relief organizations. I want to thank the many Americans +who have already contributed to this effort. And I want to encourage all Americans who want to help to go to +whitehouse.gov to learn more. +And, lastly, in the days, months, and years ahead, we'll need to work closely with the government and people of Haiti to +reclaim the momentum that they achieved before the earthquake. It is particularly devastating that this crisis has come +at a time when—at long last, after decades of conflict and instability—Haiti was showing hopeful signs of political and +economic progress. In the months and years to come, as the tremors fade and Haiti no longer tops the headlines or +leads the evening news, our mission will be to help the people of Haiti to continue on their path to a brighter future. The +United States will be there with the Haitian government and the United Nations every step of the way. +In the aftermath of disaster, we are reminded that life can be unimaginably cruel. That pain and loss is so often meted +out without any justice or mercy. That ""time and chance"" happen to us all. But it is also in these moments, when we are +brought face to face with our own fragility, that we rediscover our common humanity. We look into the eyes of another +and see ourselves. And so the United States of America will lead the world in this humanitarian endeavor. That has been +our history, and that is how we will answer the challenge before us. +Michael H.

First Minister +and Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) leader Peter Robinson has said that Empey's +support is an essential component of ""community confidence"" in the deal, and that +a ""no"" vote by the UUP on March 9 would prompt him to resign as First Minister, +forcing Assembly elections to seek a unionist mandate for devolution of policing +and justice. Such an outcome would effectively scuttle the Hillsborough +Agreement and severely harm both local and international confidence in Northern +Ireland's political institutions. There is also a strong possibility that Sinn Fein +could become the largest party in the Assembly, which could cause a stalemate in +establishing a new Executive after elections. (Under the St. Andrew's Agreement, +the largest party holds the position of First Minister.) While electoral +considerations factor significantly in UTJF' and DUP behavior at present, Empey's +position is based on: 1) his anger at a lack of consultation by DUP and Sinn Fein +during devolution negotiations; and 2) frustration with the dysfunctional workings +of the Executive and the UUP's exclusion from decision-making. Empey is also +looking to leverage the spoiler role, tacitly granted him by Robinson's position, to +force the Executive to address the ongoing impasse on educational reform as a +precondition of his support; an outcome that could benefit him electorally. +Since Hillsborough, Reg has received repeated calls from PMs Brown and Cowen, +and Cameron and other senior Conservative Party officials. Empey has rebuffed +them all and it appears their influence is limited. The Tories feel that Empey, who +is increasingly isolated within the UUP, must be able to show his constituency that +he has ""gotten something"" from the Hillsborough process, even if it is only a +promise from the Executive to establish a framework to resolve the impasse on +education. The Tories acknowledge that a commitment to future talks on +education may not be enough for Empey, given his electoral concerns. Empey's +focus on getting a concession on education puts disproportionate pressure on +education ministerial portfolio-holder Sinn Fein. As a result, should the March 9 +vote fail, unionists will undoubtedly seek to shift blame to Sinn Fein for their +inability to compromise on education. Sinn Fein and the DUP have met with +Empey numerous times in recent days to discuss ways forward, although no +agreement has yet been reached. A senior DUP official has indicated that Empey's +requests so far are not feasible. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767991 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767991 Date: 08/31/2015 +Points +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767991 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767991 Date: 08/31/2015 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05767991 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4411,C05767994,"H: KRUGMAN ON CHINA TODAY IN CASE YOU MISSED, HIS PROPOSAL AT END OF COLUMN.

Something must be done. +To give you a sense of the problem: Widespread complaints that China was manipulating its currency — selling renminbi +and buying foreign currencies, so as to keep the renminbi weak and China's exports artificially competitive — began +around 2003. At that point China was adding about $10 billion a month to its reserves, and in 2003 it ran an overall +surplus on its current account — a broad measure of the trade balance — of $46 billion. +Today, China is adding more than $30 billion a month to its $2.4 trillion hoard of reserves. The International Monetary +Fund expects China to have a 2010 current surplus of more than $450 billion — 10 times the 2003 figure. This is the most +distortionary exchange rate policy any major nation has ever followed. +And it's a policy that seriously damages the rest of the world. Most of the world's large economies are stuck in a liquidity +trap — deeply depressed, but unable to generate a recovery by cutting interest rates because the relevant rates are +already near zero. China, by engineering an unwarranted trade surplus, is in effect imposing an anti-stimulus on these +economies, which they can't offset. +So how should we respond? First of all, the U.S. Treasury Department must stop fudging and obfuscating. +Twice a year, by law, Treasury must issue a report identifying nations that ""manipulate the rate of exchange between their +currency and the United States dollar for purposes of preventing effective balance of payments adjustments or gaining +unfair competitive advantage in international trade."" The law's intent is clear: the report should be a factual determination, +not a policy statement. In practice, however, Treasury has been both unwilling to take action on the renminbi and unwilling +to do what the law requires, namely explain to Congress why it isn't taking action. Instead, it has spent the past six or +seven years pretending not to see the obvious. +Will the next report, due April 15, continue this tradition? Stay tuned. +If Treasury does find Chinese currency manipulation, then what? Here, we have to get past a common misunderstanding: +the view that the Chinese have us over a barrel, because we don't dare provoke China into dumping its dollar assets. +What you have to ask is, What would happen if China tried to sell a large share of its U.S. assets? Would interest rates +soar? Short-term U.S. interest rates wouldn't change: they're being kept near zero by the Fed, which won't raise rates +until the unemployment rate comes down. Long-term rates might rise slightly, but they're mainly determined by market +expectations of future short-term rates. Also, the Fed could offset any interest-rate impact of a Chinese pullback by +expanding its own purchases of long-term bonds. +It's true that if China dumped its U.S. assets the value of the dollar would fall against other major currencies, such as the +euro. But that would be a good thing for the United States, since it would make our goods more competitive and reduce +our trade deficit. On the other hand, it would be a bad thing for China, which would suffer large losses on its dollar +holdings. In short, right now America has China over a barrel, not the other way around. +So we have no reason to fear China. But what should we do? +Some still argue that we must reason gently with China, not confront it.

Why Harness ""day of rage"" over Jerusalem and the Palestinian Authority's call +to gather on the Temple Mount to ""save"" the Dome of the Rock from non-existent plans to build the Third Temple? Why +the sudden outrage over rebuilding a synagogue, destroyed by the Jordanians in 1948, in the Old City's Jewish Quarter, +when dozens of synagogues and yeshivas have been built in the quarter without incident? +The answer lies not in Jerusalem but in Washington. By placing the issue of building in Jewish neighborhoods in East +Jerusalem at the center of the peace process, President Obama has inadvertently challenged the Palestinians to do no +less. +Astonishingly. Obama is repeating the key tactical mistake of his failed efforts to restart Middle East peace talks over the +last year. Though Oben-la's insistence on a settlement freeze to help restart negotiations was legitimate, he went a step +too far by including building in East Jerusalem. Every Israeli government over the last four decades has built in the Jewish +neighborhoods of East Jerusalem; no government, let alone one headed by the Likud, could possibly agree to a freeze +there. Obama made resumption of negotiations hostage to a demand that could not be met. The result was that +Palestinian leaders were forced to adjust their demands accordingly. +Obama is directly responsible for one of the most absurd turns in the history of Middle East negotiations. Though +Palestinian leaders negotiated with Israeli governments that built extensively in the West Bank, they now refused to sit +down with the first Israeli government to actually agree to a suspension of building. Obama's demand for a building freeze +in Jerusalem led to a freeze in negotiations. +Finally, after intensive efforts, the administration produced the pathetic achievement of ""proximity talks""—setting +Palestinian-Israeli negotiations back a generation, to the time when Palestinian leaders refused to sit at the same table +with Israelis. +That Obama could be guilty of such amateurishness was perhaps forgivable because he was, after ail, an amateur. But +he has now taken his failed policy and intensified it. By demanding that Israel stop building in Ramat Shlomo and +elsewhere in East Jerusalem—and placing that demand at the center of American-Israeli relations—he's ensured that the +Palestinians won't show up even to proximity talks. This is no longer amateurishness; it is pique disguised as policy. +Initially, when the announcement about building in Ramat Shlomo was made, Israelis shared Vice President Biden's +humiliation and were outraged at their government's incompetence. The widespread sense here was that Netanyahu +deserved the administration's condemnation, not because of what he did but because of what he didn't do: He failed to +convey to all parts of his government the need for caution during Biden's visit, symptomatic of his chaotic style of +governing generally. +But not even the opposition accused Netanyahu of a deliberate provocation. These are not the days of Yitzhak Shamir, +the former Israeli prime minister who used to greet a visit from Secretary of State James Baker with an announcement of +the creation of another West Bank settlement. Netanyahu has placed the need for strategic cooperation with the U.S. on +the Iranian threat ahead of the right-wing political agenda. That's why he included the Labor Party into his coalition, and +why he accepted a two-state solution—an historic achievement that set the Likud, however reluctantly, within the +mainstream consensus supporting Palestinian statehood. The last thing Netanyahu wanted was to embarrass Biden +during his goodwill visit and trigger a clash with Obama over an ultra-Orthodox neighborhood. +Nor is it likely that there was a deliberate provocation from the ultra-Orthodox Shas party, which runs the interior ministry +that oversees building procedures. Shas, which supports peace talks and territorial compromise, is not a nationalist party. +Its interest is providing housing for its constituents, like the future residents of Ramat Shlomo; provoking international +incidents is not its style. +Finally, the very ordinariness of the building procedure—the fact that construction in Jewish East Jerusalem is considered +by Israelis routine—is perhaps the best proof that there was no intentional ambush of Biden. Apparently no one in the +interior ministry could imagine that a long-term plan over Ramat Shiomo would sabotage a state visit. +In turning an incident into a crisis, Obama has convinced many Israelis that he was merely seeking, a pretext to pick a fight +with Israel. Netanyahu was inadvertently shabby; Obama, deliberately so. +Ac.t,cording to a banner headline in the newspaper Ma'ariv, senior Likud officials believe that Obama's goal is to topple the +Netanyahu government, by encouraging those in the Labor Party who want to quit the coalition. +The popular assumption is that Obama is seeking to prove his resolve as a leader by getting tough with Israel. Given his +ineffectiveness against Iran and his tendency to violate his own self-imposed deadlines for sanctions, the Israeli public is +not likely to be impressed. Indeed, Israelis' initial anger at Netanyahu has turned to anger against Obama. According to an +Israel Radio poll on March 16, 62 percent of Israelis blame the Obama administration for the crisis, while 20 percent +blame Netanyahu. (Another 17 percent blame Shas leader Eli Yishai.) • +In the last year, the administration has not once publicly condemned the Palestinians for lack of good faith—even though +the Palestinian Authority media has, for example, been waging a months-long campaign denying the Jews' historic roots +in Jerusalem. Just after Biden left Ramailah, Palestinian officials held a ceremony naming a square in the city after a +terrorist responsible for the massacre of 38 Israeli civilians. That too didn't merit an administration rebuke. +Obama's one-sided public pressure against Israel could intensify the atmosphere of ""open season"" against Israel +internationally. Indeed, the European Union has reaffirmed it is linking improved economic relations with Israel to the +resumption of the peace process—as if it's Israel rather than the Palestinians that has refused to come to the table. +If the administration's main tactical error in Middle East negotiating was emphasizing building in Jerusalem, its main +strategic error was assuming that a two-state solution was within easy reach. Shortly after Obama took office, Rehm +Emanuel vvas quoted in the Israeli press insisting that a Palestinian state would be created within Obama's first tent. +instead, a year later, we are in the era of suspended proximity talks. Now the administration is demanding that Israel +negotiate over final status issues in proximity talks as a way of convincing the Palestinians to agree to those talks--as if +Israelis would agree to discuss the future of Jerusalem when Palestinian leaders refuse to even sit with them. +To insist on the imminent possibility of a two-state solution requires amnesia. Biden's plea to Israelis to consider a +withdrawal to an approximation of the 1967 borders in exchange for peace ignored the fact that Israel made that offer +twice in the last decade: first, when Prime Minister Ehud Barak accepted the Clinton Proposals of December 2000, and +then more recently when Prime Minister Ehud Olmert renewed the offer to Mahrnoud Abbas. Abbas, says Olmert, never +replied. +The reason for Palestinian rejection of a two-state solution is because a deal would require Palestinians to confine the +return of the descendants of the 1948 refugees to Palestine rather than to Israel. That would prevent a two-state solution +from devolving into a bi-national, one-state solution. Israel's insistence on survival remains the obstacle to peace. +To achieve eventual peace, the international community needs to pressure Palestinian leaders to forgo their claim to Haifa +and Jaffa and confine their people's right of return to a future Palestinian state--just as the Jews will need to forgo their +claim to Hebron and Bethlehem and confine their people's right of return to the state of Israel. That is the only possible +deal: conceding my right of return to Greater Israel in exchange for your right of return to Greater Palestine. A majority of +Israelis—along with the political system—has accepted that principle. On the Palestinian side, the political system has +rejected it. +In the absence of Palestinian willingness to compromise on the right of return, negotiations should not focus on a two- +state solution but on more limited goals. +There have been positive signs of change on the Palestinian side in the last few years. The rise of Hamas has created +panic within Fatah, and the result is, for the first time, genuine security cooperation with Israel. Also, the emergence of +Salem Fayyad as Palestinian prime minister marks a shift from ideological to pragmatic leadership (though Fayyad still +lacks a power base). Finally, the West Bank economy is growing, thanks in part to Israel's removal of dozens of +roadblocks. The goal of negotiations at this point in the conflict should be to encourage those trends. +But by focusing on building in Jerusalem, Obama has undermined that possibility too. To the fictitious notion of a peace +process, Obama has now added the fiction of an intransigent Israel blocking the peace process. +The administration, according to a report in the Israeli ne\Aispaper Yedito Aharonot, is making an even more insidious +accusation against Israel. During his visit, wrote Yediot Aharanot, Bicien told Israeli leaders that their policies are +endangering American lives in Afghanistan and Iraq. The report has been denied in the White House. Whether or not the +remark was made, what is clear today in Jerusalem is that Obama's recklessness is endangering Israeli--and Palestinian-- +lives. As I listen to police sirens outside my window, Obama's political Intifada against Netanyahu seems to be turning into +a third intifada over Jerusalem. +Yossi Klein Ha/evils a senior fellow of the She/em Center in Jerusalem, and a contributing editor of The New Republic. +WM David Axelrod please be quiet, pease? +Posted By 4 '■ (I?

Israel's insistence on survival remains the obstacle to peace. +To achieve eventual peace, the international community needs to pressure Palestinian leaders to forgo their claim to Haifa +and Jaffa and confine their people's right of return to a future Palestinian state--just as the Jews will need to forgo their +claim to Hebron and Bethlehem and confine their people's right of return to the state of Israel. That is the only possible +deal: conceding my right of return to Greater Israel in exchange for your right of return to Greater Palestine. A majority of +Israelis—along with the political system—has accepted that principle. On the Palestinian side, the political system has +rejected it. +In the absence of Palestinian willingness to compromise on the right of return, negotiations should not focus on a two- +state solution but on more limited goals. +There have been positive signs of change on the Palestinian side in the last few years. The rise of Hamas has created +panic within Fatah, and the result is, for the first time, genuine security cooperation with Israel. Also, the emergence of +Salem Fayyad as Palestinian prime minister marks a shift from ideological to pragmatic leadership (though Fayyad still +lacks a power base). Finally, the West Bank economy is growing, thanks in part to Israel's removal of dozens of +roadblocks. The goal of negotiations at this point in the conflict should be to encourage those trends. +But by focusing on building in Jerusalem, Obama has undermined that possibility too. To the fictitious notion of a peace +process, Obama has now added the fiction of an intransigent Israel blocking the peace process. +The administration, according to a report in the Israeli ne\Aispaper Yedito Aharonot, is making an even more insidious +accusation against Israel. During his visit, wrote Yediot Aharanot, Bicien told Israeli leaders that their policies are +endangering American lives in Afghanistan and Iraq. The report has been denied in the White House. Whether or not the +remark was made, what is clear today in Jerusalem is that Obama's recklessness is endangering Israeli--and Palestinian-- +lives. As I listen to police sirens outside my window, Obama's political Intifada against Netanyahu seems to be turning into +a third intifada over Jerusalem. +Yossi Klein Ha/evils a senior fellow of the She/em Center in Jerusalem, and a contributing editor of The New Republic. +WM David Axelrod please be quiet, pease? +Posted By 4 '■ (I?

UUP leader Sir Reg Empey continues to withhold his +support for the Hillsborough Agreement, citing complaints about the functioning of +the Executive and demanding movement on educational reform; an outcome that +would benefit him electorally. Even though a UUP ""yes"" is not required for the +vote to pass, Robinson has said that Empey's support is an essential component of +""community confidence"" in the deal, and that a ""no"" vote by the UUP on March 9 +would prompt him to resign as First Minister, force new elections to seek a +unionist mandate for devolution. Such an outcome would effectively scuttle the +Hillsborough Agreement and severely harm both local and international confidence +in Northern Ireland's political institutions.

Michael Mullen on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The team had been dispatched by CENTCOM +commander Gen. David Petraeus to underline his growing worries at the lack of progress in resolving the issue. The 33- +slide, 45-minute PowerPoint briefing stunned Mullen. The briefers reported that there was a growing perception among +Arab leaders that the U.S. was incapable of standing up to Israel, that CENTCOM's mostly Arab constituency was losing +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768064 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768064 Date: 08/31/2015 +faith in American promises, that Israeli intransigence on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was jeopardizing U.S. standing in +the region, and that Mitchell himself was (as a senior Pentagon officer later bluntly described it) ""too old, too slow ... +and too late."" +The January Mullen briefing was unprecedented. No previous CENTCOM commander had ever expressed himself on +what is essentially a political issue; which is why the briefers were careful to tell Mullen that their conclusions followed +from a December 2009 tour of the region where, on Petraeus's instructions, they spoke to senior Arab leaders. +""Everywhere they went, the message was pretty humbling,' a Pentagon officer familiar with the briefing says. ""America +was not only viewed as weak, but its military posture in the region was eroding."" But Petraeus wasn't finished: two days +after the Mullen briefing, Petraeus sent a paper to the White House requesting that the West Bank and Gaza (which, +with Israel, is a part of the European Command -- or EUCOM), be made a part of his area of operations. Petraeus's +reason was straightforward: with U.S. troops deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan, the U.S. military had to be perceived by +Arab leaders as engaged in the region's most troublesome conflict. +[UPDATE: A senior military officer denied Sunday that Petraeus sent a paper to the White House. +""CENTCOM did have a team brief the CJCS on concerns revolving around the Palestinian issue, and CENTCOM did +propose a UCP change, but to CJCS, not to the WH,"" the officer said via email. ""GEN Petraeus was not certain what might +have been conveyed to the WH (if anything) from that brief to CJCS."" +(UCP means ""unified combatant command,"" like CENTCOM; CJCS refers to Mullen; and WH is the White House.)] The +Mullen briefing and Petraeus's request hit the White House like a bombshell. While Petraeus's request that CENTCOM +be expanded to include the Palestinians was denied (""it was dead on arrival,"" a Pentagon officer confirms), the Obama +administration decided it would redouble its efforts pressing Israel once again on the settlements issue, sending +Mitchell on a visit to a number of Arab capitals and dispatching Mullen for a carefully arranged meeting with the chief of +the Israeli General Staff, Lt. General Gabi Ashkenazi. While the American press speculated that Mullen's trip focused on +Iran, the JCS Chairman actually carried a blunt, and tough; message on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: that Israel had to +see its conflict with the Palestinians ""in a larger, regional, context"" -- as having a direct impact on America's status in the +region. Certainly, it was thought, Israel would get the message. +Israel didn't. When Vice President Joe Biden was embarrassed by an Israeli announcement that the Netanyahu +government was building 1,600 new homes in East Jerusalem, the administration reacted. But no one was more +outraged than Biden who, according to the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth, engaged in a private, and angry, exchange +with the Israeli Prime Minister Not surprisingly, what Biden told Netanyahu reflected the importance the administration +attached to Petraeus's Mullen briefing: ""This is starting to get dangerous for us,"" Biden reportedly told Netanyahu. +""What you're doing here undermines the security of our troops who are fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. That +endangers us and it endangers regional peace."" Yedioth Ahronoth went on to report: ""The vice president told his Israeli +hosts that since many people in the Muslim world perceived a connection between Israel's actions and US policy, any +decision about construction that undermines Palestinian rights in East Jerusalem could have an impact on the personal +safety of American troops fighting against Islamic terrorism."" The message couldn't be plainer: Israel's intransigence +could cost American lives. +There are important and powerful lobbies in America: the NRA, the American Medical Association, the lawyers -- and the +Israeli lobby. But no lobby is as important, or as powerful, as the U.S. military. While commentators and pundits might +reflect that Joe Biden's trip to Israel has forever shifted America's relationship with its erstwhile ally in the region, the +real break came in January, when David Petraeus sent a briefing team to the Pentagon with a stark warning: America's +relationship with Israel is important, but not as important as the lives of America's soldiers. Maybe Israel gets the +message now. +Mark Perry's newest book is Talking To Terrorists +http://warincontext.org/2010/03/14/israel-is-putting-american-lives-at-risk/ +My piece on the briefing of Admiral Mullen by CENTCOM senior officers has occasioned a great deal of comment, as well +as some skepticism: how accurate is the account? Was it told to me by direct participants in the briefing? Is there any +basis for imagining that Petraeus has any kind of hidden agenda, whether that is a desire to expand CENTCOM — or even +hostility towards Israel. +I won't name my sources, even though it's clear to people in the Pentagon — and certainly to General Petraeus — who +they are. Was I told of the briefing by the briefers themselves? I will only say that there were four people in the briefing +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768064 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768064 Date: 08/31/2015 +—the two briefers, Admiral Mullen, and Admiral Mullen's primary adviser on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. I know two +of the people involved in the briefing. Whether or not they are my sources is something for the reader to determine. The +account is not only accurate, it's a precis of what actually happened. There is a lot more to it. The White House, State +Department and Pentagon have not denied the account, and for good reason: it's true. +Is there any basis for imagining that Petraeus has any kind of hidden agenda in ordering the briefing? +I have been reporting on the American military for thirty years. My work on the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Four Stars + , is the authoritative account on +the subject. I have deeply rooted contacts in the military that go back thirty years. I have never met a senior military +officer whom I do not admire. There is no greater insult than to believe that General Petraeus or any other senior +American military officer would use the lives of American soldiers as a lever to enhance their own political future. My +sense is that General Petraeus neither likes nor dislikes Israel: but he loves his country and he wants to protect our +soldiers. The current crisis in American relations with Israel is not a litmus test of General Petraeus's loyalty to Israel, but +of his, and our, concern for those Americans in uniform in the Middle East. +It is, perhaps, a sign of the depth of ""the Biden crisis"" that every controversy of this type seems to get translated into +whether or not America and its leaders are committed to Israel's security. This isn't about Israel's security, it's about our +security. +http://maxblumenthal.com/2010/03/pastor-hagee-and-netanyahus-lovefest-on-eve-of-bidens-arrival-in-israel/ +Netanyahu and Pastor Hagee's Lovefest on Eve of Biden's Arrival in Israel +On 03.09.10, By Max +(Videos recorded by Rachel Tabachnick ; more videos coming +shortly.) Vice President Joe Biden was greeted in Jerusalem with the announcement + that the +Israeli Interior Ministry approved the construction of 1600 new homes in Occupied East Jerusalem contrary to U.S. +wishes and complicating Biden's mission to help jump start the peace process. But Biden should have known that Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu intended +to upset his plans by Netanyahu's appearance with John Hagee. +The day after a series of talks between US Special Envoy for the Middle East George Mitchell and Netanyahu, and a day +before Biden's arrival, Netanyahu appeared onstage with Pastor John Hagee in Jerusalem. The occasion was Hagee's +Night To Honor Israel, an event the far-right Texas-based preacher arranged to tout his ministry's millions in donations +to Israeli organizations and to level bellicose rhetoric against Israel's perceived enemies. +At the gathering, Hagee called Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ""the Hitler of the Middle East"" and denounced +the Goldstone Report as ""character assassination by an unbiased and uninformed committee."" +Netanyahu welcomed the crowd of 1000 American evangelicals to Jerusalem, a city he described as ""the undivided, +eternal capitol of the Jewish people. Then, he told them, ""I salute you! The Jewish people salute you!"" He used the rest +of his speech to call for ""tough, biting sanctions"" against Iran that ""bite deep into its energy sector."" +Hagee and Netanyahu appear together on stage: +In the audience were top-level members of the Israeli government, from Ambassador Michael Oren to Jerusalem Mayor +'Mr Barkat to Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon. Also present was Rabbi Shlorno Riskin, the chief rabbi of the illegal +West Bank settlement of Efrat who gained notoriety for lobbying President Bill Clinton to pardon his friend, fugitive +billionaire Marc Rich. Ayalon had stirred controversy days before +when he refused to meet with a US congressional delegation brought to Israel by the progressive Jewish group J Street. +Part One of Hagee's speech: +Part Two: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768064 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768064 Date: 08/31/2015 +Pastor Hagee in Jerusalem 3/8/10 (Part II) from Max J Blumenthal + on Vimeo +Hagee's ceremony featured a 15-minute film highlighting the recipients of donations from John Hagee Ministries that +totaled $58 million since 2001. The recipients included Jewish settlements from the West Bank like Gush Etzion and +Shomron, which was involved in promoting an ""Obama Hilltop project"" + that promoted +more settlement building and compared Obama to Pharoah. Hagee also announced funding for a pressure group run by +the settlers evacuated from Gush Katif in Gaza in 2005. During Israel's assault on Gaza in 2009, a group of Gush Katif +residents lobbied the Israel government to allow them to +resettle the Palestinian coastal region. +Who is Hagee funding in Israel? +Who Is Hagee Funding In Israel? from Max Blumenthal + on Vimeo . +The most notable of Hagee's funding recipients was an organization called Im Tirtzu. A student representative of this +group appeared in the film to thank Hagee for ""help[ing] us to ensure that students in Israel are on the right path, the +path of Zionism, the love of Israel, the path of solidarity."" Another student called for ""the second revolution in Israel."" +In February, Im Tirtzu funding a smear campaign against former Knesset member and New Israel Fund Director Naomi +Chazan that included posters caricaturing +her with a horn on her head. The group misleadingly accused the New Israel Fund of bankrolling 16 human rights +organizations that contributed documentation to the Goldstone Report. +The smear campaign led to unsuccessful legislation in the Knesset designed to further cripple already marginalized +Israeli human rights groups. Meanwhile, the Jerusalem Post fired + Chazan as a columnist without explanation. Gideon Levy, a +columnist for Ha'aretz, called Irn Tirtzu ""a McCarthyite +movement"" for its attacks on Chazan. +Although CUR attempted to distance itself +from Im Tirtzu's campaign, the organization's appearance during CUR's Jerusalem ceremony suggested that Hagee +would continue to provide it with funding well into the future. +Republican Senator John McCain repudiated the endorsement + of Hagee during his 2008 presidential +campaign after Hagee's statements describing the Holocaust as a fulfillment of divine prophecy came to light. Hagee has +also said that he +believed the anti-Christ was ""partially Jewish, as was Adolph Hitler."" However, none of Hagee's comments have deterred +Israeli government officials from embracing him or accepting his millions in annual charity. +During Hagee's speech, he made no secret of his support for the illegal settlement enterprise that has been the source +of difficulties between the US and Israel. ""The settlements are not the problem,"" he boomed from the podium. ""The +problem is the refusal of Arab leaders to respect the right of Jewish people to live anywhere in the Middle East."" +Hagee received a rousing ovation from the crowd and the Israeli government officials seated beside the podium when +he proclaimed, ""World leaders do not have the authority to tell Israel and the Jewish people what they can and cannot +do in the city of Jerusalem. They don't have the authority to tell them what they can and cannot build, who can and and +cannot live there."" +The following day, on March 9, Vice President Joseph Biden arrived in Israel to meet with Netanyahu and officials from +the Palestinian Authority.

UUP leader Sir Reg Empey is threatening to withhold his support for the +Hillsborough Agreement vote in the assembly on March 9, citing complaints about +the functioning of the Executive and demanding movement on educational reform. +Sinn Fein and the DUP are currently mulling his demands, and Sinn Fein might be +willing to offer talks on the post-primary education sector (as it did two years ago, +according to McGuinness) as a face-saving measure for Empey. This may be too +little for Empey. Even though a UUP ""yes"" is not required for the cross- +community vote to pass, First Minister Peter Robinson has said that Empey's +support is an essential component of ""community confidence"" in the deal, and that +a ""no"" vote by the UUP on March 9 would prompt him to resign as First Minister, +force new elections to seek a unionist mandate for devolution. Such an outcome +would effectively scuttle the Hillsborough Agreement and severely harm both local +and international confidence in Northern Ireland's political institutions. Robinson +feels strongly that the DUP would ""hammer"" the UUP in an Assembly election, +while we understand that the UUP has done polling which would indicate +significant gains for them against a scandal-ridden and weakened DUP. +McGuinness feels both parties are badly miscalculating. +Sinn Fein and the DUP have met with Empey repeatedly in recent days to discuss +ways forward, although no agreement has yet been reached. McGuinness has told +us that regardless of Empey's behavior, Robinson still holds the key to the March 9 +outcome and should come under the most pressure to allow the vote to go to the +floor, with or without UUP concurrence. Having all patties except the UUP vote +in favor of devolution will leave Empey and the UUP isolated, and Sinn Fein is +trying to convince its DUP partner in government of such. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768066 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768066 Date: 08/31/2015 +Points +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768066 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4461,C05768068,,H,VermaRR@state.gov,180,2010-03-06T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0068/DOC_0C05768068/C05768068.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,"Verma, Richard R ",,"Saturday, March 6, 2010 6:12 AM",F-2014-20439,C05768068,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Did some research on Saving Americas Treasures.

The main point is that the crash killed not only the President and his wife but a +broad swath of Poland's top national security leadership. In this sense it is an unprecedented governmental tragedy, +and a test of Poland's constitution. The sitrep follows. +Shortly before 1000 Warsaw time, a Polish government Tu-154 plane carrying a delegation headed by Polish President +Lech Kaczynski crashed in heavy fog at the airport in Smolensk, Russia. Russian officials have told the press that there +were no survivors; the foreign ministry spokesman said there were 88 passengers on board. The delegation was en +route to ceremonies hosted by the Russian government to commemorate the 70t1, anniversary of the Katyn +massacres. There is as yet not government confirmation of the deaths, but there is no expectation of survivors. +Speaker of the Polish Sejm (the lower house of parliament) Bronislaw Komorowski is en route to Warsaw to take over +the powers of the presidency and those of the Commander in Chief, according to press reports. According to the Polish +constitution, if the president dies in office, the Speaker temporarily assumes the presidency, and has 14 days to +announce the date of special presidential elections. The elections must be held within 60 days of his +announcement. This is the first major test of the Polish constitution, and the government is itself sorting out the details +of the procedure in this unprecedented circumstance. +Prime Minister Tusk is returning from Gdansk to Warsaw, and will chair a meeting of the Council of Ministers at 1P local +time. Tusk has received condolence telephone calls from Russian Prime Minister Putin, German Chancellor Angela +Merkel, and other world leaders. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768220 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768220 Date: 08/31/2015 +The magnitude of the loss is difficult to overstate including, in addition to the President and the First Lady, the top +national security leadership of the Presidential Chancellery, the head of Poland's armed forces, all or nearly all of +Poland's military chiefs, a deputy minister of defense, a deputy foreign minister, a presidential candidate, and members +of Parliament.

On 9 April, I had lunch in Kabul with expert on +Afghanistan now based at was on his way back B6 +to Washington via a meeting in Paris with the French Political Director. He had just spend three +weeks in Kandahar and Gardez, his first visit since August last year. He came across as patriotic, but +deeply worried, speaking in a monologue, mostly in French. +OVERALL SITUATION +2. said that his assessment was that the overall situation had deteriorated sharply since his +last visit. The Taliban were stronger, and more confident, than ever. ISAF was inflicting heavy losses +on them, but the scale was as nothing compared with what the mujahideen had endured at the hands +of the Russians. Moreover, the change in rules of engagement — to prevent civilian casualties, and +fewer night raids — had been interpreted by the Taliban as signalling weakness on NATO's part. In +view, most of the East, and Kunduz, was effectively lost to the Taliban and their fellow +travellers. US forces in the East controlled the ground they occupied or passed over, but little more: +they were in a similar position to the Soviet Army. Moreover, the population did not want to back +them, and was resisting US attempts to set up tribal militias or implant US Special Forces in the +villages, did, however, acknowledge that he had heard that the US Marines in Helmand were +behaving much more sensitively towards the population than had been expected. But the situation in +Marjah was not good. Of course, the Marines held the ground, but violence would continue for +months or years. This did not offer the positive signal of momentum for which the Coalition had been +hoping. +KANDAHAR +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768229 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768229 Date: 08/31/2015 +3. aid repeatedly that he did not understand the strategy in Kandahar. The Taliban had +effectively penetrated, and largely controlled, a city of one million people. The ANP there were +largely Barakzai, and working for either or both of the Taliban or Ahmed Wali Karzai's network. AWK +was at the centre of a vast criminal enterprise: his brother-in-law was one of the largest drug +traffickers in the south. When I said that surely ISAF could gradually occupy the city, squeezing the +Taliban back and out, said he was not certain of that: he thought that there might well be quite +violent resistance from the Taliban. He was also dismissive of the ISAF strategy of ""managing"" AWK: +if the latter really did abandon his criminal ways, he would be dead. He would lose the protection of +his militias. In such situations, one could only move forward, or go into prison or exile: there was no +going back. AWK had just too many enemies to survive in Kandahar without the protection of his own +criminal networks, guess was that AWK would promise to be good, but in reality stick to his +old habits, and hope to profit from the action taken by ISAF against the Taliban. was +dismissive of efforts to empower Governor Weesa, who would not survive five minutes in Kandahar +without Western support and protection. Although Weesa came from the area, he had no power base, +and, with his Canadian nationality, was regarded by the Kandaharis as a foreigner. +4. was also sceptical as to whether ISAF could ""shura"" its way to success in Kandahar. On the +military side, he thought ISAF just couldn't generate the force densities necessary to control the city: +for example, he thought the Argandab would require getting on for 15,000 troops to control it +properly. The city of Kandahar would require some 10,000 fresh police, who were just not available. +NEXT STEPS +5. said he was worried about where the coalition was heading. The best that could be +expected was a messy stalemate in Kandahar, but the probability was, by the early autumn, an +outcome that would not look at all like success, wondered whether ISAF really did need to go +ahead with its plan to take Kandahar: in view, he was riding for a fall. I said that I did not see +how we could pull back now. The planners were well aware of the risks, but wanted to generate +positive momentum to enable a political process to take hold. +MAKING PEACE +6. said that, in his view, the only way out now was a negotiated peace with the Taliban and all +the other parties to the conflict. He thought that Pakistan would need to help Karzai and the +Americans open such a dialogue with the Taliban, but, sooner or later, both Pakistan and Karzai +would need to be moved to one side, and there would need to be direct talks between the Americans +and the Taliban. The Taliban would not make a final peace with Karzai, who had little credibility left. +Similarly, the senior Taliban leaders would need to be brought across the border into Afghanistan, to +get them out from under the control of the ISI. All this would need deception and trickery: for the first +time in his career, could see that diplomats were needed, in this case to finesse a delicate +process, involving multiple negotiations. Karzai would have to eased out, but gently and with plenty +of public respect. +7. said that there would need to be a cease-fire, and wondered why ISAF couldn't occupy the +high ground by being the first to offer such a move. There would also have to be frank discussions +about the withdrawal of foreign forces. +8. said that his main worry was that the Obama Administration would waste another year +ploughing on with a military campaign which could deliver stalemate at best, and a serious reverse at +worst. Then, with the 2011-12 Presidential election campaign getting going, the White House would +panic, handing the problem to Pakistan, and pull US troops out more quickly than the situation +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768229 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768229 Date: 08/31/2015 +merited. It was vital to get ahead of the curve, and start making preparations now for a messy +political process that could last months or years. +9. said that he had known from 2001 that the Western intervention in Afghanistan had been +fraught with danger. He had suspected then, and knew even more strongly now, that the Taliban +could not be defeated or even properly contained by military means. Once again, he was sick with +worry at the way things were going. He had thought that the Obama Administration had understood +that the solutions in Afghanistan were political, not military. He was trying to think how he and other +concerned experts could shock the Administration in getting a political grip on the situation: he was +considering a joint op-ed by a group of experts. The seriousness of the situation meant that such an +article would have to concentrate on essentials: much of the talk about counter-insurgency (in what +was an Afghan civil war) and development and governance was no more than ""poetry"". +10. I pointed out to the political difficulties for the US and other Western governments in +negotiating direct with the Taliban. Although the principle of a negotiated peace was accepted, more +or less, in Washington and London, there was a long way to go before politicians fully addressed +what that might involve. Hence the argument that we needed first to get on the front foot militarily. It +would help if the Taliban could be pinned down on politically neuralgic issues, such as women's rights +and social restrictions, said that, in a serious negotiation, he thought such undertakings could +be extracted from the Taliban: again, however, the sooner work started on that, the more chance of a +satisfactory result. +11. I told that much of this thinking coincided with the views expressed by the Foreign +Secretary in his article in The New York Review of Books of 29 April 2010 had missed the MIT +speech, as he had been in Kandahar). The UK election campaign meant that there was little that +could be done over the next few weeks, apart from making sure that incoming or returning Ministers +had the best possible advice. After the election, there was clearly a case for a good strategic +discussion between the British Prime Minister and the American President: we all needed to raise our +eyes from the urgent tactical preoccupations in the south to the really important strategic issues, of +harvesting political success from military progress. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768229 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4515,C05768230,DO YOU HAVE MAIL ADDRESS,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C",116,2010-04-10T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0074/DOC_0C05768230/C05768230.pdf,F-2013-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Do you have mail address,,"Jiloty, Lauren C ",,"Saturday, April 10, 2010 2:03 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768230,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,BlakeR2@State.gov,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768230 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Jiloty, Lauren C +Sent: Saturday, April 10, 2010 2:03 PM +To: +Subject Re: Do you have mail address +BlakeR2@State.gov +Original Message --- +From: H +To: Jiloty, Lauren C +Sent: Sat Apr 10 13:56:21 2010 +Subject: Do you have mail address +For Asst.

What +chances could the Jewish revolt have? +God knows what was going on in the mind of the ""Zealots"". They eliminated the moderate +leaders, who warned against provoking the empire, and gained sway over the Jewish +population of the country. They relied on God. Perhaps they also relied on the Jews in Rome +and believed that their influence over the Senate would restrain the Emperor, Nero.

Every time he was spat on, he remarked that it was raining. +Yet now, ostensibly quite suddenly, the measure is full. Obama, his Vice President and his +senior assistants condemn the Netanyahu government with growing severity. Secretary of +State Hillary Clinton has submitted an ultimatum: Netanyahu must stop all settlement activity, +East Jerusalem included; he must agree to negotiate about all core problems of the conflict, +including East Jerusalem, and more. +The surprise was complete. Obama, it seems, has crossed the Rubicon, much as the Egyptian +army had crossed the Suez Canal in 1973. Netanyahu gave the order to mobilize all the +reserves in America and to move forward all the diplomatic tanks. All Jewish organizations in +the US were commanded to join the campaign. AIPAC blew the shofar and ordered its +soldiers, the Senators and Congressmen, to storm the White House. +It seems that the decisive battle has been joined. The Israeli leaders were certain that Obama +would be defeated. +And then an unusual noise was heard: the sound of the doomsday weapon. +THE MAN who decided to activate it was a foe of a new kind. +David Petraeus is the most popular officer of the United States army. The four-star general, +son of a Dutch sea captain who went to America when his country was overrun by the Nazis, +stood out from early childhood. In West Point he was a ""distinguished cadet"", in Army +Command and General Staff College he was No. 1. As a combat commander, he reaped +plaudits. He wrote his doctoral thesis (on the lessons of Vietnam) at Princeton and served as +an assistant professor for international relations in the US Military Academy. +He made his mark in Iraq, when he commanded the forces in Mosul, the most problematical +city in the country. He concluded that in order to vanquish the enemies of the US he must win +over the hearts of the civilian population, acquire local allies and spend more money than +ammunition. The locals called him King David. His success was considered so outstanding +that his methods were adopted as the official doctrine of the American army. +His star rose rapidly. He was appointed commander of the coalition forces in Iraq and soon +became the chief of the Central Command of the US army, which covers the whole Middle East +, except Israel and Palestine (which ""belong"" to the American command in Europe). +When such a person raises his voice, the American people listen. As a respected military +thinker, he has no rivals. +THIS WEEK, Petraeus conveyed an unequivocal message: after reviewing the problems in his +AOR (Area Of Responsibility) — which includes, among others, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, +Iraq and Yemen — he turned to what he called the ""root causes of instability"" in the region. The +list was topped by the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. +In his report to the Armed Services Committee he stated: ""The enduring hostilities between +Israel and some of its neighbors present distinct challenges to our ability to advance our +interests in the AOR...The conflict foments anti-American sentiment, due to a perception of +U.S. favoritism for Israel. Arab anger over the Palestinian question limits the strength and +depth of U.S. partnerships with governments and peoples in the AOR and weakens the +legitimacy of moderate regimes in the Arab world. Meanwhile, al-Qaeda and other militant +groups exploit that anger to mobilize support. The conflict also gives Iran influence in the +Arab world through its clients, Lebanese Hizballah and Hamas."" +Not content with that, Petraeus sent his officers to present his conclusions to the Joint Chiefs +of Staff, +In other words: Israeli-Palestinian peace is not a private matter between the two parties, but a +supreme national interest of the USA. That means that the US must give up its one-sided +support for the Israeli government and impose the two-state solution. +The argument as such is not new. Several experts have said more or less the same in the past. +(Immediately after the 9/11 attacks, I wrote in a similar vein and prophesied that the US would +change its policy. It did not happen then.) But now this is being stated in an official document +written by the responsible American commander. +The Netanyahu government immediately went into damage-limitation mode. Its +spokespersons declared that Petraeus represents a narrow military approach, that he doesn't +understand political matters, that his reasoning is faulty. But it is not this that made people in +Jerusalem break out into cold sweat. +AS IS well known, the pro-Israel lobby dominates the American political system without limits +— almost. Every American politician and senior official is mortally afraid of it. The slightest +deviation from the strict AIPAC line is tantamount to political suicide. +But in the armor of this political Goliath there is a chink. Like Achilles' heel, the immense +might of the pro-Israel lobby has a vulnerable point that, when touched, can neutralize its +power. +It was illustrated by the Jonathan Pollard affair. This American-Jewish employee of a sensitive +intelligence agency spied for Israel. Israelis consider him a national hero, a Jew who did his +duty to his people. But for the US intelligence community, he is a traitor who endangered the +lives of many American agents. Not satisfied with a routine penalty, it induced the court to +impose a life sentence. Since then, all American presidents have refused the requests of +successive Israeli governments to commute the sentence. No president dared to confront his +intelligence chiefs in this matter. +But the most significant side of this affair is reminiscent of the famous words of Sherlock +Holmes about the dogs that did not bark. AIPAC did not bark. The entire American Jewish +community fell silent. Almost nobody raised their voice for poor Pollard. +Why? Because most American Jews are ready to do anything — just anything — for the +government of Israel. With one exception: they will not do anything that appears to hurt the +security of the United States. When the flag of security is hoisted, the Jews, like all Americans, +snap to attention and salute. The Damocles sword of suspicion of disloyalty hangs above their +heads. For them, this is the ultimate nightmare: to be accused of putting the security of Israel +ahead of the security of the US. Therefore it is important for them to repeat endlessly the +mantra that the interests of Israel and the US are identical. +And now comes the most important general of the US Army and says that this is not so. The +policy of the present Israeli government is endangering the lives of American soldiers in Iraq +and Afghanistan. +FOR NOW, this is being said only as a side remark, in a military document that has not been +widely aired. But the sword has been drawn from its scabbard - and American Jews have +started to tremble at the distant rumble of an approaching earthquake. +This week, Netanyahu's brother-in-law has used our own doomsday weapon. He declared that +Obama is an ""anti-Semite"". The official newspaper of the Shas party has asserted that Obama +is really a Muslim. They represent the radical right and its allies, who argue in speech and in +writing that ""Hussein"" Obama is a Jew-hating black who must be beaten in the coming +congressional elections and in the next presidential ones. +(Yet an important poll in Israel published yesterday shows that the Israeli public is far from +convinced by these insinuations: the vast majority believes that Obama's treatment of Israel is +fair. Indeed, Obama got higher marks than Netanyahu.) +If Obama decides to fight back and activate his doomsday weapon - the accusation that Israel +puts the lives of American servicemen at risk - this would have catastrophic consequences +for Israel. +For the time being, this is only a shot across the bow - a warning shot fired by a warship in +order to induce another vessel to follow its instructions. The warning is clear. Even if the +•present crisis is somehow damped down, it will inevitably flare up again and again as long as +the present coalition in Israel stays in power. +When the movie ""Hurt Locker"" won its awards, the entire American public was united in its +concern about the lives of its soldiers in the Middle East.

Sid +• Print this page +From Times Online +April 14, 2010 +Tory lead narrows amid huge voter +disenchantment, Times poll finds +olmage :1 of 20, +Peter Riddell +The general election race is tightening, according to a Populus poll for The Times that reveals deep public +disenchantment with the campaign so far. +The poll, undertaken yesterday and this morning, says that more voters are now hoping for a hung parliament than either +a Tory or a Labour outright victory. +Conservative support has slipped by three points over the past week to 36 per cent, while Labour is a point up at 33 per +cent. The Liberal Democrats are unchanged on 21 per cent. +The polls tend to fluctuate by a couple of points either way. and these shifts are within the margin of error of the average. +With other new polls pointing to a firming in Labour support, the party may have enjoyed a small boost from its manifesto +launch. Tory strategists will hope to have achieved a boost from its manifesto launch today. +If the Populus figures were repeated in the general election in three weeks' time, and there is a uniform switch in votes, +Labour would be the largest single party, with about 300 MPs, ahead of the Tories on 264 and the Lib Dems on 54. This +would point to a Lab/Lib Dem coalition. But many analysts do not expect a uniform national swing. +The latest poll shows that 32 per cent of the public now hope for a hung parliament (as opposed to expecting one), +against 28 per cent wanting a Tory majority and 22 per cent a Labour one. Lib Dem voters prefer a deal with Labour than +the Tories in a hung parliament, by 44 to 31 per cent. The public is evenly split 40 to 42 per cent about whether they want +Labour or the Tories in either a majority or a minority government. +The poll shows that the number expecting a Tory overall majority has risen by three points to 34 per cent over the past +week. This only just exceeds the number expecting a hung parliament, at 33 per cent, down six points compared with a +week ago. Overall, 57 per cent expect the Tories to be the largest party, against 29 per cent expecting Labour to be. +The public is deeply sceptical about the honesty of the parties. Only 4 per cent think that they are being completely honest +about their tax plans, 61 per cent partly honest. Only 6 per cent say they are being completely honest about cutting the +deficit and 61 per cent partly honest. Some 7 per cent say that they are being completely honest about the extent to which +they can fund their policies by cutting waste and 58 per cent partly honest. +Voters were asked to say which party had proposed eight key manifesto pledges. They wrongly identified four: reducing +the increase in national insurance contributions (naming Labour not the Tories); allowing unsuccessful schools, hospitals +and the police (the Tories, not Labour); tightening up takeover rules (the Tories not Labour); and requiring foreign workers +employed in public services to speak fluent English (the Tories not Labour). +In only one case, the £150-a-year tax break, did more than half of voters (60 per cent) correctly identify the party making +the proposal. +In most cases, the pledge will make little difference to people's votes, apart from three made by Labour: the foreign +workers language pledge, doubling paid paternity leave and allowing the takover of unsuccessful schools, hospitals etc. +More than two fifths (43 per cent), including 50 per cent of women, say ""none of the parties"", or ""don't know"", when asked +which party is putting across a convincing cases to voters. This compares with 25 per cent naming the Tories and 18 per +cent Labour. +Just over half the public (54 per cent) plan to watch the first televised leaders' debate on Thursday evening.

Sid +• Print this page +From Times Online +April 14, 2010 +Tory lead narrows amid huge voter +disenchantment, Times poll finds +olmage :1 of 20, +Peter Riddell +The general election race is tightening, according to a Populus poll for The Times that reveals deep public +disenchantment with the campaign so far. +The poll, undertaken yesterday and this morning, says that more voters are now hoping for a hung parliament than either +a Tory or a Labour outright victory. +Conservative support has slipped by three points over the past week to 36 per cent, while Labour is a point up at 33 per +cent. The Liberal Democrats are unchanged on 21 per cent. +The polls tend to fluctuate by a couple of points either way. and these shifts are within the margin of error of the average. +With other new polls pointing to a firming in Labour support, the party may have enjoyed a small boost from its manifesto +launch. Tory strategists will hope to have achieved a boost from its manifesto launch today. +If the Populus figures were repeated in the general election in three weeks' time, and there is a uniform switch in votes, +Labour would be the largest single party, with about 300 MPs, ahead of the Tories on 264 and the Lib Dems on 54. This +would point to a Lab/Lib Dem coalition. But many analysts do not expect a uniform national swing. +The latest poll shows that 32 per cent of the public now hope for a hung parliament (as opposed to expecting one), +against 28 per cent wanting a Tory majority and 22 per cent a Labour one. Lib Dem voters prefer a deal with Labour than +the Tories in a hung parliament, by 44 to 31 per cent. The public is evenly split 40 to 42 per cent about whether they want +Labour or the Tories in either a majority or a minority government. +The poll shows that the number expecting a Tory overall majority has risen by three points to 34 per cent over the past +week. This only just exceeds the number expecting a hung parliament, at 33 per cent, down six points compared with a +week ago. Overall, 57 per cent expect the Tories to be the largest party, against 29 per cent expecting Labour to be. +The public is deeply sceptical about the honesty of the parties. Only 4 per cent think that they are being completely honest +about their tax plans, 61 per cent partly honest. Only 6 per cent say they are being completely honest about cutting the +deficit and 61 per cent partly honest. Some 7 per cent say that they are being completely honest about the extent to which +they can fund their policies by cutting waste and 58 per cent partly honest. +Voters were asked to say which party had proposed eight key manifesto pledges. They wrongly identified four: reducing +the increase in national insurance contributions (naming Labour not the Tories); allowing unsuccessful schools, hospitals +and the police (the Tories, not Labour); tightening up takeover rules (the Tories not Labour); and requiring foreign workers +employed in public services to speak fluent English (the Tories not Labour). +In only one case, the £150-a-year tax break, did more than half of voters (60 per cent) correctly identify the party making +the proposal. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768305 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768305 Date: 08/31/2015 +In most cases, the pledge will make little difference to people's votes, apart from three made by Labour: the foreign +workers language pledge, doubling paid paternity leave and allowing the takover of unsuccessful schools, hospitals etc. +More than two fifths (43 per cent), including 50 per cent of women, say ""none of the parties"", or ""don't know"", when asked +which party is putting across a convincing cases to voters.

In the coming months, we will work +together with Iraqi leaders as our partnership continues its transition to a primarily civilian focus, with the goal of +building a long-term, multidimensional relationship between our two nations - a relationship that will contribute to +stability in the Middle East and growing peace and prosperity in Iraq. +### +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768332 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4540,C05768344,PAKISTAN,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-03-07T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0068/DOC_0C05768344/C05768344.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Fw: Pakistan,,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Sunday, March 7, 2010 3:23 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768344,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768344 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sunday, March 7, 2010 3:23 PM +To: +Subject: Fw: Pakistan +Fyi +Original Message +From: Kennedy, Patrick F +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sun Mar 07 15:14:27 2010 +Subject: Pakistan +Cheryl +They departed last nite (before M was notified) +Am in the office +Regards +Pat +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768344 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4541,C05768345,TOUCHING BASE,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-03-07T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0068/DOC_0C05768345/C05768345.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,touching base,H,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Sunday, March 7, 2010 9:31 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768345,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"I am likely going to go to bed early and be up early. +Hope you had a chance to go through ppt. +cdm","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768345 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sunday, March 7, 2010 9:31 PM +To: H +Subject: touching base +I am likely going to go to bed early and be up early. +Hope you had a chance to go through ppt. +cdm +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768345 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4542,C05768348,US TROOPS WITHDRAWING EN MASSE FROM HAITI,"Mills, Cheryl D","Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-03-07T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0068/DOC_0C05768348/C05768348.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,US troops withdrawing en masse from Haiti,"Mills, Cheryl D","Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Sunday, March 7, 2010 9:01 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768348,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,FYI,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768348 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sunday, March 7, 2010 9:01 PM +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Subject FW: US troops withdrawing en masse from Haiti +FYI +Original Message --- +From: membership_services@fma.sosiltd.com +To: southcom_news_alerts_members_list@lists.fma.sosiltd.coni + +Sent: Sun Mar 07 16:32:43 2010 +Subject: US troops withdrawing en masse from Haiti +US troops withdrawing en masse from Haiti BEN FOX,Associated Press Writers JENNIFER KAY,Associated Press Writers +PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) 91U.S. troops are withdrawing from the shattered capital, leaving many Haitians anxious +that the most visible portion of international is ending even as the city is still mired in misery and vulnerable to unrest. +As troops packed their duffels and began to fly home this weekend, Haitians and some aid workers wondered whether +U.N. peacekeepers and local police are up to the task of maintaining order. More than a half-million people still live in +vast encampments that have grown more unpleasant in recent days with the early onset of rainy season. +Some also fear the departure of the American troops is a sign of dwindling international interest in the plight of the +Haitian people following the catastrophic Jan. 12 earthquake. +""I would like for them to stay in Haiti until they rebuild the country and everybody can go back to their house,"" said +Marjorie Louis, a 27-year-old mother of two, as she warmed a bowl of beans for her family over a charcoal fire on the +fake grass of the national stadium. +U.S. officials say the long-anticipated draw down of troops is not a sign of waning commitment to Haiti, only a change in +the nature of the operation. Security will now be the responsibility of the 10,000-strong U.N. peacekeeping force and +the Haitian police. +A smaller number of U.S. forces 11 the exact number has not yet been determined 11 will be needed as the U.N. and +Haitian government reassert control, said Gen. Douglas Fraser, head of U.S. Southern Command, which runs the Haiti +operation. +""Our mission is largely accomplished,"" Fraser said. +American forces arrived in the immediate aftermath of the quake to treat the wounded, provide emergency water and +rations and help prevent a feared outbreak of violence among desperate survivors. They also helped reopen the airport +and seaport. +There has been no widespread violence but security is a real issue. A U.N. food convoy traveling from Gonaives to +Dessalines on Friday was stopped and overrun by people, who looted two trucks before peacekeepers regained control, +U.N. officials said. +They managed to escort the other two back to Gonaives. There were no reports of injuries. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768348 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768348 Date: 08/31/2015 +The military operation was criticized by some Haitian senators and foreign leaders as heavy-handed and inappropriate in +a country that had been occupied by American forces for nearly two decades in the early 20th century. But ordinary +Haitians largely welcomed the troops, many out of disenchantment with their own government. +""They should stay because they have been doing a good job,"" 35-year-old Lesly Pierre said as his family prepared dinner +under a tarp at an encampment in Petionville. ""If it was up to our government, we wouldn't have gotten any help at all."" +U.S. soldiers said they had nothing but warm encounters with the Haitian people. +""They're real good people. They just want help,"" Army Private First Class Troy Sims, a 19-year-old from Fresno, +California, said as he prepared to board a flight back to the U.S. ""I feel that us being here helped a lot. If we weren't +here, things probably would have gotten out of control."" +There are now about 11,000 troops, more than half of them on ships just off the coast, down from a peak of around +20,000 on Feb. 1. The total is expected to drop to about 8,000 in coming days as the withdrawal gathers steam. The +military said more than 700 paratroopers left this weekend. +Soldiers are now gone from the General Hospital, where they once directed traffic and kept order amid the chaos of +mass casualties. There are no more Haitian patients on board the USNS Comfort, which treated 8,600 people after the +quake. At a country club in Petionville, where some 100,000 Haitians are living in rough shelters in a muddy ravine, only +a few soldiers remain of the several hundred there after the disaster. +Alison Thompson said she was nervous about the smaller U.S. troop contingent. +""Soon we are not going to have any security,"" said Thompson, medical coordinator of the Jenkins/Penn Relief +Organization, which runs a field hospital at the edge of the ravine. ""Everybody is just so worried that they are pulling out +because it's going to get dangerous."" +It was the same concern for Louis at the national stadium. +""If the troublemakers see that there is some kind of force here, they will think twice before they do anything,"" she said. +""They are already getting ready to stir up trouble."" +But Ted Constan, chief program officer for Partners in Health, said that the way to address security is to get adequate +shelter and other aid to the hundreds of thousands of people who are now stranded in squalid encampments. +""The real solution is to deliver services ... rather than turn Haiti into a military state,"" he said. +Media Analysis and Watch Center +USSTRATCOM Foreign Media Analysis Program SOS International Ltd. +www.sosiltd.com +For additional information, please visit the SOSi USSTRATCOM FMA portal at +http://fma.sosiltd.com/secure/?SID=SECF83EFBEF.

They eliminated the moderate leaders, who warned against +provoking the empire, and gained sway over the Jewish population of the country. They relied on God. Perhaps they also +relied on the Jews in Rome and believed that their influence over the Senate would restrain the Emperor, Nero. Perhaps +they had heard that Nero was weak and about to fall. +We know how it ended: after three years, the rebels were crushed, Jerusalem fell and the temple was burned down. The +last of the Zealots committed suicide in Masada. +The Zionists did indeed try to learn from history.

They cleverly utilized the radical stance of their adversaries and gained the +sympathy of the whole world. +But since the beginning of the occupation, their mind has become clouded. The cult of Masada has become dominant. +Divine promises once again start to play a role in public discourse. Large parts of the public are following the new +zealots. +The next phase is also repeating itself: the leaders of Israel are starting a rebellion against the new Rome. +WHAT BEGAN as an insult to the Vice President of the United States is developing into something far bigger. The mouse +has given birth to an elephant. +Lately, the ultra-right government in Jerusalem has started to treat President Barack Obama with thinly veiled contempt. +The fears that arose in Jerusalem at the beginning of his term have dissipated. Obama looks to them like a paper black +panther. He gave up his demand for a real settlement freeze. Every time he was spat on, he remarked that it was raining. +Yet now, ostensibly quite suddenly, the measure is full. Obama, his Vice President and his senior assistants condemn the +Netanyahu government with growing severity. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has submitted an ultimatum: Netanyahu +must stop all settlement activity, East Jerusalem included; he must agree to negotiate about all core problems of the +conflict, including East Jerusalem, and more. +The surprise was complete. Obama, it seems, has crossed the Rubicon, much as the Egyptian army had crossed the Suez +Canal in 1973. Netanyahu gave the order to mobilize all the reserves in America and to move forward all the diplomatic +tanks. All Jewish organizations in the US were commanded to join the campaign. A1PAC blew the shofar and ordered its +soldiers, the Senators and Congressmen, to storm the White House. +It seems that the decisive battle has been joined. The Israeli leaders were certain that Obama would be defeated. +And then an unusual noise was heard: the sound of the doomsday weapon. +THE MAN who decided to activate it was a foe of a new kind. +David Petraeus is the most popular officer of the United States army. The four-star general, son of a Dutch sea captain +who went to America when his country was overrun by the Nazis, stood out from early childhood. In West Point he was +a ""distinguished cadet"", in Army Command and General Staff College he was No. 1. As a combat commander, he reaped +plaudits. He wrote his doctoral thesis (on the lessons of Vietnam) at Princeton and served as an assistant professor for +international relations in the US Military Academy. +He made his mark in Iraq, when he commanded the forces in Mosul, the most problematical city in the country. He +concluded that in order to vanquish the enemies of the US he must win over the hearts of the civilian population, +acquire local allies and spend more money than ammunition. The locals called him King David. His success was +considered so outstanding that his methods were adopted as the official doctrine of the American army. +His star rose rapidly. He was appointed commander of the coalition forces in Iraq and soon became the chief of the +Central Command of the US army, which covers the whole Middle East, except Israel and Palestine (which ""belong"" to +the American command in Europe). +When such a person raises his voice, the American people listen. As a respected military thinker, he has no rivals. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768358 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768358 Date: 08/31/2015 +THIS WEEK, Petraeus conveyed an unequivocal message: after reviewing the problems in his AOR (Area Of +Responsibility) — which includes, among others, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq and Yemen — he turned to what he +called the ""root causes of instability"" in the region. The list was topped by the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. +In his report to the Armed Services Committee he stated: ""The enduring hostilities between Israel and some of its +neighbors present distinct challenges to our ability to advance our interests in the AOR...The conflict foments anti- +American sentiment, due to a perception of U.S. favoritism for Israel. Arab anger over the Palestinian question limits the +strength and depth of U.S. partnerships with governments and peoples in the AOR and weakens the legitimacy of +moderate regimes in the Arab world. Meanwhile, al-Qaeda and other militant groups exploit that anger to mobilize +support. The conflict also gives Iran influence in the Arab world through its clients, Lebanese Hizballah and Hamas."" +Not content with that, Petraeus sent his officers to present his conclusions to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, +In other words: Israeli-Palestinian peace is not a private matter between the two parties, but a supreme national +interest of the USA. That means that the US must give up its one-sided support for the Israeli government and impose +the two-state solution. +The argument as such is not new. Several experts have said more or less the same in the past. (Immediately after the +9/11 attacks, I wrote in a similar vein and prophesied that the US would change its policy. It did not happen then.) But +now this is being stated in an official document written by the responsible American commander. +The Netanyahu government immediately went into damage-limitation mode. Its spokespersons declared that Petraeus +represents a narrow military approach, that he doesn't understand political matters, that his reasoning is faulty. But it is +not this that made people in Jerusalem break out into cold sweat. +AS IS well known, the pro-Israel lobby dominates the American political system without limits — almost. Every American +politician and senior official is mortally afraid of it. The slightest deviation from the strict AIPAC line is tantamount to +political suicide. +But in the armor of this political Goliath there is a chink. Like Achilles' heel, the immense might of the pro-Israel lobby +has a vulnerable point that, when touched, can neutralize its power. +It was illustrated by the Jonathan Pollard affair. This American-Jewish employee of a sensitive intelligence agency spied +for Israel. Israelis consider him a national hero, a Jew who did his duty to his people. But for the US intelligence +community, he is a traitor who endangered the lives of many American agents. Not satisfied with a routine penalty, it +induced the court to impose a life sentence. Since then, all American presidents have refused the requests of successive +Israeli governments to commute the sentence. No president dared to confront his intelligence chiefs in this matter. +But the most significant side of this affair is reminiscent of the famous words of Sherlock Holmes about the dogs that did +not bark. A1PAC did not bark. The entire American Jewish community fell silent. Almost nobody raised their voice for +poor Pollard. +Why? Because most American Jews are ready to do anything —just anything —for the government of Israel. With one +exception: they will not do anything that appears to hurt the security of the United States. When the flag of security is +hoisted, the Jews, like all Americans, snap to attention and salute. The Damocles sword of suspicion of disloyalty hangs +above their heads. For them, this is the ultimate nightmare: to be accused of putting the security of Israel ahead of the +security of the US. Therefore it is important for them to repeat endlessly the mantra that the interests of Israel and the +US are identical. +And now comes the most important general of the US Army and says that this is not so. The policy of the present Israeli +government is endangering the lives of American soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768358 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768358 Date: 08/31/2015 +FOR NOW, this is being said only as a side remark, in a military document that has not been widely aired. But the sword +has been drawn from its scabbard — and American Jews have started to tremble at the distant rumble of an approaching +earthquake. +This week, Netanyahu's brother-in-law has used our own doomsday weapon. He declared that Obama is an ""anti- +Semite"". The official newspaper of the Shas party has asserted that Obama is really a Muslim. They represent the radical +right and its allies, who argue in speech and in writing that ""Hussein"" Obama is a Jew-hating black who must be beaten +in the coming congressional elections and in the next presidential ones. +(Yet an important poll in Israel published yesterday shows that the Israeli public is far from convinced by these +insinuations: the vast majority believes that Obama's treatment of Israel is fair. Indeed, Obama got higher marks than +Netanyahu.) +If Obama decides to fight back and activate his doomsday weapon — the accusation that Israel puts the lives of American +servicemen at risk — this would have catastrophic consequences for Israel. +For the time being, this is only a shot across the bow — a warning shot fired by a warship in order to induce another +vessel to follow its instructions. The warning is clear.

I +attended the Summit of the Americas in Trinidad and Tobago in April 2009 when President Obama announced +the Energy and Climate Partnership of the Americas (ECPA) to address the energy and climate change +challenges facing the region. The challenges are many as seen in frequent blackouts in major cities in the +region and the lack of access to electricity in the rural countryside. Energy poverty, energy inefficiency and +poor infrastructure have a direct impact on economic growth and development in many countries. +""The Energy and Climate Partnership of the Americas is an effort to address these issues head on. But it's not +an initiative that places the United States in a role in which it provides all the assistance or direction. It's +innovative since it sets up a voluntary and flexible framework that is open to governments, private industry, and +civil society to lead or participate in initiatives that reflect their priorities. Many countries in the Western +Hemisphere such as Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and Canada plan on leading initiatives under ECPA. El +Salvador, Chile, Costa Rica and Trinidad and Tobago will set up Clean Energy Technology Centers to serve as +sources of expertise on renewable energy technologies. +""I applaud the efforts of the representatives of the 32 countries and over 200 businesses and civil society +organizations attending the Energy and Climate Ministerial of the Americas. Many initiatives will be +announced during the Ministerial. It's impressive to see the fast progress on ECPA since President Obama +announced it last year. This is clearly a sign of the new relationship that the Obama Administration would like +with the countries of the Western Hemisphere - an inclusive one based on partnership and focused on pragmatic +problem solving and not political posturing. I plan on working with President Obama, Secretary of State +Clinton, and Energy Secretary Steven Chu to make sure the goals and priorities of the Energy and Climate +Partnership of the Americas are met."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768360 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768360 Date: 08/31/2015 +########## +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768360 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4548,C05768361,TODAY IS BIRTHDAY.,H,JilotyLC@state.gov,116,2010-03-08T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0068/DOC_0C05768361/C05768361.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Today is birthday.,H B6,"Jiloty, Lauren C ","Abedin, Huma","Monday, March 8, 2010 7:05 AM",F-2014-20439,C05768361,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,###,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768361 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Jiloty, Lauren C +Sent: Monday, March 8, 2010 7:05 AM +To: H B6 +Cc: Abedin, Huma +Subject: Today is birthday. +### +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768361 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4549,C05768363,,H,PIR,170,2010-03-21T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0070/DOC_0C05768363/C05768363.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re:,H; Huma Abedin,PIR ","Merten, Kenneth H; Rodriguez, Karen M; Robinson, Stephanie L","Friday, April 16, 2010 5:59 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768366,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,FYI,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768366 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 5:59 PM +To: +Subject: FW: Spanish Thanks +FYI +From: Lindwall, David E +Sent: Friday, April 16, 2010 5:03 PM +To: Mills, Cheryl D; Curtis, Meghann A; Reynoso, Julissa +Cc: Merten, Kenneth H; Rodriguez, Karen M; Robinson, Stephanie L +Subject: FW: Spanish Thanks +You may already be aware of this, but in the event you aren't: A Spanish helicopter based on their Navy ship ""Castilla"" +disappeared in a mountainous region near the Dominican border shortly before noon.

Thanks! -CH +http://www.ft.com/cms/s/2/894535f4-272c-11df-b84e-00144feabdc0.html +US civilians battle to help Afghanistan +By Matthew Green +Published: March 5 2010 22:43 I Last updated: March 5 2010 22:43 +US State Department representative Christopher Harich (top left) and Kevin Melton +flank Haji Abdul Jabar as they discuss the restoration of a religious monument +Each morning this winter, Haji Abdul Jabar has packed a flask of home-brewed green tea for work. It's not frugality; he's trying to avoid +being poisoned. You can't be too careful: before leaving the house, he also straps a Smith & Wesson 9mm handgun into a holster +secreted in the depths of his robes. Seized with occasional fits of passion, Jabar has been known to whip out the gun during meetings. +He may be jumpy, but tactics like this are not entirely out of place in his line of work: as district governor, the 65-year-old has an +unenviable task — of wresting the Arghandab River Valley, one of the most dangerous places in Afghanistan, from the Taliban. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768432 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768432 Date: 08/31/2015 +Viewed from the roof of Jabar's district headquarters, the sweep of the valley is at once beautiful - bleakly majestic - and charged with +menace. A distant range of low, dun-coloured hills defines the valley's opposite flank. Orchards of pomegranate trees, their branches +stripped bare by the cold, line the banks of a river meandering across the valley floor, dividing the east side of Arghandab from the +west. +The east is where Jabar's office is perched, and where US troops feel safer - +it's the west side they call ""bad juju land"". Insurgents use a strip of desert there +to infiltrate Kandahar, the birthplace of the Taliban in the mid-1990s, and the +pivot on which previous Afghan wars have turned. Roadside bombs hidden in +the lush vineyards last year turned Arghandab into a killing field. A battalion of +the 82nd Airborne Division deployed here in mid-December is hoping for better +luck, but a new showdown is coming. Stanley McChrystal, the Nato The district governor's office +commander in Afghanistan, has vowed to secure Kandahar. The Taliban want +It back. +One night, one of the insurgents called the governor's mobile. ""He said, 'I'm going to kill you, you're working for the Americans,-says +Jabar, sitting on the carpet in his office. ""I said, 'Do whatever you can do.' Then I abused him and hung up."" Jabar normally cuts a +rather solemn figure. At this recollection, he laughed. +Jabar is not alone in his mission. Aside from the 2-508 battalion of the 82nd Airborne two Americans have arrived in Arghandab to help +out: 27-year-old Kevin Melton and 35-year-old Christopher Harich. They're part of the Obama administration's ""civilian surge"", +announced alongside a fresh build-up of US troops. +Working out of the whitewashed, two-storey district office, this unlikely trio aims to turn the tide of opinion in the district. They must do it +before spring, when the valley will come into leaf and the Taliban fighters return from Pakistan in time for the fighting season. +""Arghandab is the gate to Kandahar city,"" Jabar says. ""If Arghandab is lost, Kandahar is also lost. It's the most important valley in +Afghanistan."" +Haji Abdul Jabar and Kevin Melton of US Aid above the Arghandab Valley +Jabar, Harich and Melton have little in common but their beards. Melton, who grew up in the suburbs of Washington, is working for +USAid, the US governments development agency. Hard-driving and anxious to get results, Melton juggles a raft of plans for projects +from solar-powered lamps for villages, to schemes for hydroelectricity and renovating a shrine clinging to a nearby mountainside. His +past experience includes work in Sudan, but the challenge in Arghandab trumps anything he has previously attempted. ""It feels like +there's no end to the day,"" he said. ""It's physically, mentally, emotionally and intellectually exhausting."" +Harich is a lawyer and a former marine from Louisiana who until recently worked as a policy adviser to the governor of West Virginia. +He now represents the US State Department in Arghandab. ""I've no doubt in my mind that we're going to have a fight this summer,"" he +says. ""When the Taliban come back in May, are they welcomed with open arms?"" +Strapping on their khaki-coloured helmets and flak jackets and donning wraparound protective sunglasses whenever they leave the +base, Melton and Harich bear a distinct resemblance to the US soldiers who protect them. +Jabar, meanwhile, sports neck and wrist pouches containing Koranic charms to ward off the health risks caused by his high blood +pressure. (He takes advantage of the medic in the US military base adjacent to his office for regular check-ups.) +Both the Americans were lured by the challenge of participating in the US adventure in Afghanistan for a year. Sleeping in vacant +rooms in the district office and equipped with a V-Sat internet link to keep in touch with superiors in Kandahar city - but no shower - +they must figure out how to work with Jabar to build local government more or less from scratch. Harich aims to act as a ""mentor"", +helping Jabar as he works with the provincial government in Kandahar to assemble an administrative team to govern the district of +more than 55,000 people, +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768432 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4559,C05768434,"NYTIMES ""THE SOFT STEPS OF DIPLOMACY""",H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-03-21T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0070/DOC_0C05768434/C05768434.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,"Fw: NYTimes The Soft Steps of Diplomacy""",H,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Pally, Maura M","Sunday, March 21, 2010 12:35 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768434,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768434 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sunday, March 21, 2010 12:35 PM +To: H +Subject: Fw: NYTimes The Soft Steps of Diplomacy"" +Fyi +Original Message ---- +From: stockann +To: Cheryl Mills Mills, Cheryl D; Abedin, Huma +Cc: Pally, Maura M +Sent: Sun Mar 21 11:47:42 2010 +Subject: NYTimes ""The Soft Steps of Diplomacy"" +Check out the NYT Arts Section front page cover story today on ECA.

I reviewed with her Crowley's March 5 comments, noting that he had clarified his remarks were off-hand +(I translated that in Arabic as ""non-official."") I also briefed her on your and A/S Crowley's meeting with Aujali, +which she had clearly not yet heard about (which means Q most likely had also not been briefed on it). Sharef +said such a meeting was appreciated, but did not meet the Libyan demand for an apology. She said, repeatedly +throughout the conversation, ""The Brother Leader is upset that no one from the USG has explained that this +spokesman was not speaking for them, and made clear that his comments were wrong, and apologized for them. +He expected behavior and words like this from Switzerland, not from the US."" She noted that Q had remarked +that he had said nice things about President Obama during his meetings with people from the US Embassy (""You +reported that back to Washington, right""; I assured her we had), and was thus surprised that the USG responded +with ""the words of gangsters!"" Sharef repeatedly referenced NOC Chair Ghanem's meeting last Thursday with +the GM's from US oil companies: ""We don't want to have to take measures against them, but such insults to the +Leader cannot stand. Why has the US not publicly distanced itself from Crowley and his comments?!""

I emphasized that the US was not involved, and did not want to be involved, in the Swiss-Libya dispute, +we just hope it is resolved soon. I stressed that the US values its relationship with Libya, and wants to continue +improving the relationship, and get past this unfortunate bad spot we currently are in. I asked if it would be +helpful if a senior USG official called Q to discuss issues of bilateral interest, and reinforce the importance of the +relationship. At first, she brushed off such an idea - ""that won't be a public apology"" - but at the end of our +conversation, returned to the idea, noting that it was interesting, and inquiring as to which USG official might +call. I said I didn't want to make any promises I couldn't keep; that I'd check with Washington and get back to her +with further details tomorrow. She reiterated that she liked the idea, and said we should discuss it further over +coffee tomorrow or Wednesday. +Sharef closed by mentioning that she ""and most Libyans"" are ""hand in hand with the US ... we want a good +relationship with you, as we like you, you're not like the Europeans."" +Appreciate your guidance as to whether I can discuss further details of possible call with Sharef

In retrospect, this looks like an act of +madness. Palestine was a small and insignificant part of the world-wide empire +which had just won a crushing victory against the rival power - the Parthian +Empire (Persia) - and put down a major rebellion in Britain. What chances could +the Jewish revolt have? +God knows what was going on in the mind of the ""Zealots"". They eliminated the +Moderate leaders, who warned against provoking the empire, and gained sway over +the Jewish population of the country. They relied on God. Perhaps they also +relied on the Jews in Rome and believed that their influence over the Senate +would restrain the Emperor, Nero. Perhaps they had heard that Nero was weak and +about to fall. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768486 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768486 Date: 08/31/2015 +We know how it ended: after three years, the rebels were crushed, Jerusalem fell +and the temple was burned down. The last of the Zealots committed suicide in +Masada. +The Zionists did indeed try to learn from history. They acted in a rational way, +did not provoke the great powers, endeavored in every situation to attain what +was possible. They accepted compromises, and every compromise served them as a +basis for the next surge forward. They cleverly utilized the radical stance of +their adversaries and gained the sympathy of the whole world. +But since the beginning of the occupation, their mind has become clouded. The +cult of Masada has become dominant. Divine promises once again start to play a +role in public discourse.

The mouse has given birth to an elephant. +Lately, the ultra-right government in Jerusalem has started to treat President +Barack Obama with thinly veiled contempt. The fears that arose in Jerusalem at +the beginning of his term have dissipated. Obama looks to them like a paper +black panther. He gave up his demand for a real settlement freeze.

He was appointed commander of the coalition forces in +Iraq and soon became the chief of the Central Command of the US army, which +covers the whole Middle East , except Israel and Palestine (which ""belong"" to +the American command in Europe). +When such a person raises his voice, the American people listen. As a respected +military thinker, he has no rivals. +THIS WEEK, Petraeus conveyed an unequivocal message: after reviewing the +problems in his AOR (Area Of Responsibility) - which includes, among others, +Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Iraq and Yemen - he turned to what he called the +""root causes of instability"" in the region. The list was topped by the +Israeli-Palestinian conflict. +In his report to the Armed Services Committee he stated: ""The enduring +hostilities between Israel and some of its neighbors present distinct challenges +to our ability to advance our interests in the AOR_The conflict foments +anti-American sentiment, due to a perception of U.S. favoritism for Israel. Arab +anger over the Palestinian Question limits the strength and depth of U.S. +partnerships with governments and peoples in the AOR and weakens the legitimacy +of moderate regimes in the Arab world. Meanwhile, al-Qaeda and, other militant +groups exploit that anger to mobilize support. The conflict also gives Iran +influence in the Arab world through its clients, Lebanese Hizballah and Hamas."" +Not content with that, Petraeus sent his officers to present his conclusions to +the Joint Chiefs of Staff, +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768486 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768486 Date: 08/31/2015 +In other words: Israeli-Palestinian peace is not a private matter between the +two parties, but a supreme national interest of the USA. That means that the US +must give up its one-sided support for the Israeli government and impose the +two-state solution. +The argument as such is not new. Several experts have said more or less the same +in the past. (Immediately after the 9/11 attacks, I wrote in a similar vein and +prophesied that the US would change its policy. It did not happen then.) But now +this is being stated in an official document written by the responsible American +commander. +The Netanyahu government immediately went into damage-limitation mode. Its +spokespersons declared that Petraeus represents a narrow military approach, that +he doesn't understand political matters, that his reasoning is faulty. But it is +not this that made people in Jerusalem break out into cold sweat. +AS IS well known, the pro-Israel lobby dominates the American political system +without limits - almost. Every American politician and senior official is +mortally afraid of it. The slightest deviation from the strict AIPAC line is +tantamount to political suicide. +But in the armor of this political Goliath there is a chink. Like Achilles' +heel, the immense might of the pro-Israel lobby has a vulnerable point that, +when touched, can neutralize its power. +It was illustrated by the Jonathan Pollard affair. This American-Jewish employee +of a sensitive intelligence agency spied +. for Israel. Israelis consider him a +national hero, a Jew who did his duty to his people. But for the US intelligence +community, he is a traitor who endangered the lives of many American agents.

Since then, all American presidents have refused the requests of +successive Israeli governments to commute the sentence. No president dared to +confront his intelligence chiefs in this matter. +But the most significant side of this affair is reminiscent of the famous words +of Sherlock Holmes about the dogs that did not bark. AIPAC did not bark. The +entire American Jewish community fell silent. Almost nobody raised their voice +for poor Pollard. +Why? Because most American Jews are ready to do anything - just anything - for +the government of Israel. With one exteption: they will not do anything that +appears to hurt the security of the United States. When the flag of security is +hoisted, the Jews, like all Americans, snap to attention and salute. The +Damocles sword of suspicion of disloyalty hangs above their heads. For them, +this is the ultimate nightmare: to be accused of putting the security of Israel +ahead of the security of the US. Therefore it is important for them to repeat +endlessly the mantra that the interests of Israel and the US are identical. +And now comes the most important general of the US Army and says that this is +not so. The policy of the present Israeli government is endangering the lives of +American soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. +FOR NOW, this is being said only as a side remark, in a military document that +has not been widely aired. But the sword has been drawn from its scabbard - and +,American Jews have started to tremble at the distant rumble of an approaching +earthquake. +This week, Netanyahu's brother-in-law has used our own doomsday weapon. He +declared that Obama is an ""anti-Semite"". The official newspaper of the Shas +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768486 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768486 Date: 08/31/2015 +party has asserted that Obama is really a Muslim. They represent the radical +right and its allies, who argue in speech and in writing that ""Hussein"" Obama is +a.Jew-hating black who must be beaten in the coming congressional elections and +in the next presidential ones. +(Yet an important poll in Israel published yesterday shows that the Israeli +public is far from convinced by these insinuations: the vast majority believes +that Obama's treatment of Israel is fair. Indeed, Obama got higher marks than +Netanyahu.) +If Obama decides to fight back and activate his doomsday weapon - the accusation +that Israel puts the lives of American servicemen at risk - this would have +catastrophic consequences for Israel. +For the time being, this is only a shot across the bow - a warning shot fired by +a warship in order to induce another vessel to follow its instructions. The +warning is clear. Even if the present crisis is somehow damped down, it will +inevitably flare up again and again as long as the present coalition in Israel +stays in power. +When the movie ""Hurt Locker"" won its awards, the entire American public was +united in its concern about the lives of its soldiers in the Middle East.

Photograph: Peter Muhly/AFP/Getty Images +The final part of the Northern Ireland devolution deal was put in place today, giving the province its first justice minister +since the Troubles erupted four decades ago. +Nationalists and unionists in the Stormont parliament voted together to create the new justice ministry, completing the last +act of the Good Friday agreement. +But there was discord inside the Stormont parliament after the Conservatives' allies in Northern Ireland, the Ulster +Unionists, and their 18-strong assembly team, voted against the move. +Despite an 11th hour intervention by David Cameron imploring the UUP to vote yes, the party refused to back the historic +measure. +The party's stance puts Cameron in a difficult position: he is in favour of the devolution of justice to Belfast, but his +electoral pact with the UUP risks exposing him to criticism that a Conservative government could not claim to be an +""honest broker"" when there are disagreements between the parties at Stormont. +Today's vote came just before 5pm, when 88 assembly members from Sinn Fein and the DUP joined the SDLP and +smaller parties to back the transfer of policing and judicial powers to Belfast. +But the UUP resisted pressure — from, among others, former US president George Bush — to support the measure. +Speaking on the assembly floor, Sir Reg Empey, the UUP leader, said his party had voted no ""as a democratic political +to a friend +hare +end +IL +i +r• +ontact us +er I smaller +party pledged to making power-sharing work in an inclusive manner for all the people of Northern Ireland, and we exercise +our rights refusing to bow to the blackmail and bullying to which we have been subjected in recent weeks."" +The deputy first minister, Sinn Fein's Martin McGuinness, earlier denounced the UUP stance, claiming it was intended to +embarrass the DUP. +""The UUP declared last night that they will not support this resolution,"" McGuinness told the assembly. +""That saddens and disappoints me. They are opposed in my view to the transfer for cynical party political reasons."" +In a statement after the vote, Gordon Brown praised the parties which backed the deal. ""Today the politics of progress +have finally replaced the politics of division in Northern Ireland,"" the prime minister said. ""The completion of devolution, +supported by all sections of the community in Northern Ireland, is the final end to decades of strife. It sends the most +powerful message to those who would return to violence: that democracy and tolerance will prevail. +""The courage and leadership of the parties who voted to complete devolution at Stormont will be noted around the world."" +The Conservatives welcomed the vote, without mentioning the UUP's rejection of the move. A Tory spokesman said: ""We +welcome the fact that devolution of policing and justice is going to happen. We wanted all four parties to be involved and +for it to be decided by local politicians."" +But the Liberal Democrats called on Cameron to ""clarify the position of his Tory-UUP alliance on the devolution of policing +and justice powers"". +Alistair Carmichael, their spokesman on Northern Ireland, said: ""With the UUP saying one thing, and the Tories saying the +complete opposite, voters will struggle to understand what exactly joint Tory-UUP candidates stand for. What we're seeing +is the Tories in complete disarray.

Frazer is taking a civil action in Belfast high court against the Sinn Fein +MP because he alleges McGuinness directed the IRA's campaign during the Troubles. The south Armagh unionist's father +was shot dead by the IRA. +The FAIR spokesman said he had chosen yesterday because the DUP ""had betrayed me and other victims"" by agreeing +to devolve policing and justice powers. Frazer predicted that Sinn Fein would exercise a major influence over the police +and judiciary even though the centrist, non-sectarian Alliance party leader, David Ford, will be the first justice minister. +Frazer said: ""I am very disappointed in the DUP because for years they said the things victims wanted to hear and now +they have done a complete somersault. All along they told me that Sinn Fein would never get their hands on policing and +justice but they have a say. Mr Ford is answerable to the executive and that means the deputy first minister, Martin +McGuinness. That is why the only action left to me is a civil action.

I look forward to discussing. +Gates Says U.S. Lacks Strategy to Curb Iran's Nuclear Drive +By DAVID E. SANGER and THOM SHANKER +Published: April 18, 2010 +WASHINGTON - Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates has warned in a secret three-page memorandum to top White +House officials that the United States does not have an effective long-range policy for dealing with Iran's steady progress +toward nuclear capability, according to government officials familiar with the document. +Several officials said the highly classified analysis, written in January to President Obama's national security adviser, Gen. +James L. Jones, touched off an intense effort inside the Pentagon, the White House and the intelligence agencies to +develop new options for Mr. Obama. They include a revised set of military alternatives, still under development, to be +considered should diplomacy and sanctions fail to force Iran to change course. +Officials familiar with the memo's contents would describe only portions dealing with strategy and policy, and not +sections that apparently dealt with secret operations against Iran, or how to deal with Persian Gulf allies. +One senior official, who like others spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the memo, +described the document as ""a wake-up call."" But White House officials dispute that view, insisting that for 15 months +they had been conducting detailed planning for many possible outcomes regarding Iran's nuclear program. +In an interview on Friday, General Jones declined to speak about the memorandum. But he said: ""On Iran, we are doing +what we said we were going to do. The fact that we don't announce publicly our entire strategy for the world to see +doesn't mean we don't have a strategy that anticipates the full range of contingencies - we do."" +But in his memo, Mr. Gates wrote of a variety of concerns, including the absence of an effective strategy should Iran +choose the course that many government and outside analysts consider likely: Iran could assemble all the major parts it +needs for a nuclear weapon - fuel, designs and detonators - but stop just short of assembling a fully operational weapon. +In that case, Iran could remain a signatory of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty while becoming what strategists call a +""virtual"" nuclear weapons state. +According to several officials, the memorandum also calls for new thinking about how the United States might contain +Iran's power if it decided to produce a weapon, and how to deal with the possibility that fuel or weapons could be +obtained by one of the terrorist groups Iran has supported, which officials said they considered to be a less-likely +possibility. +Mr. Gates has never mentioned the memo in public. His spokesman, Geoff Morrell, declined comment on specifics in the +document, but issued a statement on Saturday saying, ""The secretary believes the president and his national security +team have spent an extraordinary amount of time and effort considering and preparing for the full range of +contingencies with respect to Iran."" +Pressed on the administration's ambiguous phrases until now about how close the United States was willing to allow. +Iran's program to proceed, a senior administration official described last week in somewhat clearer terms that there was +a line Iran would not be permitted to cross. +The official said that the United States would ensure that Iran would not ""acquire a nuclear capability,"" a step Tehran +could get to well before it developed a sophisticated weapon. ""That includes the ability to have a breakout,"" he said, +using the term nuclear specialists apply to a country that suddenly renounces the nonproliferation treaty and uses its +technology to build a small arsenal. +Nearly two weeks ago, Mr. Obama, in an interview with The New York Times, was asked about whether he saw a +difference between a nuclear-capable Iran and one that had a fully developed weapon. ""I'm not going to parse that right +now,"" he said. But he noted that North Korea was considered a nuclear-capable state until it threw out inspectors and, +as he said, ""became a self-professed nuclear state."" +Mr. Gates has alluded to his concern that intelligence agencies might miss signals that Iran was taking the final steps +toward producing a weapon. Last Sunday on the NBC News program ""Meet the Press,"" he said: ""If their policy is to go to +the threshold but not assemble a nuclear weapon, how do you tell that they have not assembled? I don't actually know +how you would verify that."" But he cautioned that Iran had run into production difficulties, and he said, ""It's going slow - +slower than they anticipated, but they are moving in that direction."" +Mr. Gates has taken a crucial role in formulating the administration's strategy, and he has been known over his career to +issue stark warnings against the possibility of strategic surprise. +Some officials said his memo should be viewed in that light: as a warning to a relatively new president that the United +States was not adequately prepared. +He wrote the memo after Iran had let pass a 2009 deadline set by Mr. Obama to respond to his offers of diplomatic +engagement. +Both that process and efforts to bring new sanctions against Iran have struggled. Administration officials had hoped that +the revelation by Mr. Obama in September that Iran was building a new uranium enrichment plant inside a mountain +near Qum would galvanize other nations against Iran, but the reaction was muted. The next three months were spent in +what proved to be fruitless diplomatic talks with Iran over a plan to swap much of its low-enriched uranium for fuel for a +medical reactor in Tehran. By the time Mr. Gates wrote his memo, those negotiations had collapsed. +Mr. Gates's memo appears to reflect concerns in the upper echelons of the Pentagon and the military that the White +House did not have a well-prepared series of alternatives in place in case all the diplomatic steps finally failed. In fact, +just before Mr. Gates issued his warning, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Adm. Mike Mullen, wrote an official +""chairman's guidance"" to his staff saying that while any military option would have ""limited results"" against Iran's +nuclear facilities, preparations needed to be stepped up. +""Should the president call for military options, we must have them ready,"" the admiral wrote. +Administration officials testifying before a Senate committee last week made it clear that those preparations were under +way. So did General Jones. ""The president has made it clear from the beginning of this administration that we need to be +prepared for every possible contingency,"" he said in the interview. ""That is what we have done from day one, while +successfully building a coalition of nations to isolate Iran and pressure it to live up to its obligations."" +At the same hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee, Lt. Gen. Ronald L. Burgess Jr., director of the Defense +Intelligence Agency, and Gen. James E. Cartwright, the vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and one of the military's +most experienced officers on nuclear matters, said that Iran could produce bomb-grade fuel for at least one nuclear +weapon within a year, but that it would probably need two to five years to manufacture a workable atomic bomb. +The administration has been stepping up efforts to contain the influence of Iran and counter its missiles, including +placing Patriot anti-missile batteries, mostly","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768505 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Saturday, April 17, 2010 9:07 PM +To: +Subject Gates/Iran +Have you seen this story?

They run the smallest PRT and, +despite a tough economy, have done everything we've asked in terms of additional support since the surge. The meeting +with the Speaker and top women members of the parl'nt was yet another reminder of your inspiration over many years. +One of the women was at the Vienna W conf and said she's in politics today because of you. Another read about safe +birthing kits in your book and was inspired to send several thousand to Afghanistan. They are eager for more +opportunities to work together. +I came primarily to launch the new working group on gender that we and Lith are co-chairing. There was much gratitude +for our leadership with them in the Community of Democracies. +The meaning of democracy is so strong for people who had to stuggle for it more recently. They really feel this is an +important time to renew the understanding of democ, particularly after the bruising it underwent over the last several +years. +We had terrific turnout from other countries, many comments about you and references to Beijing and Iceland W conf. +(So many people told me the impact Vienna and Iceland had on them). We left our meeting with many commitments for +future concrete projects that will be undertaken. There is great hope that you will be in Krakow in July for the CD +ministerial. The Lith CD coordinator headed to Belgium the next day for an EU meeting. He told me he got a very positive +response for our gender initiative and that Ashton was particularly excited about it. The EU is locating their new gender +institute in Lithuania and they are ager for our help. +The Dutch minister who came +said the outcome of their election in June will say much about the nature of their ongoing commitment in Afg. +Lastly, I arrived shortly after the Polish tragedy. There is a very close relationship between the 2 countries and their grief +was palpable. Jolenta Kwasniewska and several other Poles came to the CD meeting. She told me that they lost so many +of their top leaders across all sectors of society, incl several top women leaders. Jolenta' foundation has been very active +in advancing women's progress in Poland as well as working in other countries. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768506 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4587,C05768507,"H: FYI, A LITTLE COLLABORATION IN THE SPIRIT OF POSTPARTISANSHIP.SID",H,sbwhoeop,194,2010-03-09T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0068/DOC_0C05768507/C05768507.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05768507,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"sbwhoeop +Tuesday, March 9, 2010 10:45 PM +H: FYI, a little collaboration in the spirit of postpartisanship.

Study Says +By JEFFREY GETTLEMAN and NEIL MacFARQUHAR +As much as half the food aid sent to Somalia is diverted from needy people to a web of corrupt contractors, radical Islamist militants +and local United Nations staff members, according to a new Security Council report. +The report, which has not yet been made public but was shown to The New York Times by diplomats, outlines a host of problems so +grave that it recommends that Secretary General Ban Ki-moon open an independent investigation into the World Food Program's +Somalia operations. It suggests that the program rebuild the food distribution system — which serves at least 2.5 million people and +whose aid was worth about $485 million in 21309 — from scratch to break what it describes as a corrupt cartel of Somali distributors. +In addition to the diversion of food aid, regional Somali authorities are collaborating with pirates who hijack ships along the lawless +coast, the report says, and Somali government ministers have auctioned off diplomatic visas for trips to Europe to the highest bidders, +some of whom may have been pirates or insurgents. +Somali officials denied that the visa problem was widespread, and officials for the World Food Program said they had not yet seen the +report but would investigate its conclusions once it was presented to the Security Council next Tuesday. +The report comes as Somalia's transitional government is preparing for a major military offensive to retake the capital, Mogadishu, and +combat an Islamist insurgency with connections to Al Claeda. +The United States is providing military aid, as the United Nations tries to roll back two decades of anarchy in the country. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768514 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768514 Date: 08/31/2015 +But it may be an uphill battle. According to the report, Somalia's security forces ""remain ineffective, disorganized and corrupt — a +composite of independent militias loyal to senior government officials and military officers who profit from the business of war."" +One American official recently conceded that Somalia's ""best hope"" was the government's new military chief, a 60-year-old former +artillery officer who, until a few months ago, was assistant manager at a McDonald's in Germany. +The report's investigators, part of the Monitoring Group on Somalia, were originally asked to track violations of the United Nations +arms embargo on Somalia, but the mandate was expanded. +Several of the report's authors have received death threats, and the United Nations recently relocated them from Kenya to New York for +safety reasons. +Possible aid obstructions have been a nettlesome topic for Somalia over the past year and have contributed to delays in aid shipments by +the American government and recent suspensions of food programs in some areas by United Nations officials. +The report singles out the World Food Program, the largest aid agency in the crisis-racked country, as particularly flawed. +""Some humanitarian resources, notably food aid, have been diverted to military uses,"" the report said. ""A handful of Somali contractors +for aid agencies have formed a cartel and become important power brokers — some of whom channel their profits, or the aid itself, +directly to armed opposition groups."" +These allegations of food aid diversions first surfaced last year. The World Food Program has consistently denied finding any proof of +malfeasance and said that its own recent internal audit found no widespread abuse. +""We have not yet seen the U.N. Somalia Monitoring Group report,"" the World Food Program's deputy executive director, Amir Abdulla, +said Tuesday. ""But we will investigate all of the allegations, as we have always done in the past if questions have been raised about our +operations."" +The current report's investigators question how independent that past audit was, and called for a new outside investigation of the +United Nations agency. +""We have to tell these folks that you cannot go on like this — we know what you are doing, you can't fool us anymore, so you better +stop,"" said President Ali Bongo Ondimba of Gabon, who was at the United Nations, where his country holds the presidency of the +Security Council this month. +The report also charges that Somali officials are selling spots on trips to Europe and that many of the people who are presented as part +of an official government entourage are actually pirates or members of militant groups. +The report says that Somali officials use their connections to foreign governments to get visas and travel documents for people who +would not otherwise be able to travel abroad and that many of these people then disappear into Europe and do not come back. +""Somali ministers, members of Parliament, diplomats and 'freelance brokers' have transformed access to foreign visas into a growth +industry, matched possibly only by piracy,"" selling visas for $10,000 to $1.5,000 each, the report said. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768514 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768514 Date: 08/31/2015 +The report's authors estimate that dozens, if not hundreds of Somalis have gained access to Europe or beyond through this under-the- +table visa business. +Mohamed Osman Aden, a Somali diplomat in Kenya, said: ""Maybe there's been one or two cases that have happened over the years. But +these are just rumors. These allegations have been going around for years."" +The report also takes aim at some of Somalia's richest, most influential businessmen, Somalia's so-called money lords. One, Abdulkadir +M. Nur, known as Eno, is married to a woman who plays a prominent role in a local aid agency that is supposed to verify whether food +aid is actually delivered. That ""potential loophole"" could ""offer considerable potential of large-scale diversion,"" the report said. +The report accuses Mr. Nur of staging the hijacking of his own trucks and later selling the food. +In an e-mail message, Mr. Nur said he had sent the investigators many documents that ""showed very clearly that the gossip and rumors +they are investigating are untrue,"" including the alleged hijacking or any link to insurgents. He said that his wife merely sat on the board +of the local aid agency and that only ""a tiny fraction"" of the food he transported was designated for that aid agency. +In September, Somalia's president, Sheik Sharif Sheik Ahmed, wrote a letter to Secretary General Ban, defending Mr. Nur as a ""very +conscientious, diligent and hard-working person"" and saying that if it were not for the contractors, ""many Somalis would have +perished."" +The report questions why the World Food Program would steer 80 percent of its transportation contracts for Somalia, worth about +$200 million, to three Somali businessmen, especially when they are suspected of connections to Islamist insurgents. +The report says that fraud is pervasive, with about 30 percent of aid skimmed by local partners and local World Food Program +personnel, io percent by the ground transporters and 5 to io percent by the armed group in control of the area. That means as much as +half of the food never makes it to the people who desperately need it. +In January, the United States halted tens of millions of dollars of aid shipments to southern Somalia because of fears of such diversions, +and American officials believe that some American aid may have fallen into the hands of Al Shabab, the most militant of Somalia's +insurgent groups. +The report also said that the president of Puntland, a semiautonomous region in northern Somalia, had extensive ties to pirates in the +area, who then funneled some of the money they made from hijacking ships to authorities. +Puntland authorities could not be reached on Tuesday, but Mr. Aden, the Somali diplomat, dismissed the allegations, saying that the +Puntland government had jailed more than io pirates and that it had not ""received a penny from them."" +""It's unfortunate that this monitoring group thinks they can stick everything on the Somalis,"" he said. +Jeffrey Gettleman reported from Gisenyi, Rwanda, and Neil MaeFarquhar from New York. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768514 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4592,C05768517,BBC POLL ON GLOBAL ATTITUTUDES-FAVORABLE VIEWS OF USA,H,"McHale, Judith A",105,2010-04-19T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0075/DOC_0C05768517/C05768517.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: BBC poll on global attitutudes-favorable views of USA,"H; Steinberg, James B; Sullivan, Jacob J; Mills, Cheryl D; Lew, Jacob J","McHale, Judith A ","Macmanus, Joseph E","Monday, April 19, 2010 7:08 AM",F-2014-20439,C05768517,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"FYI.

As the only woman among the ""Big Six"" civil rights leaders, Dr. Height helped galvanize a +movement that changed our country forever. She organized the ""Wednesdays in Mississippi"" meetings that brought +black and white women together to find common ground and break down barriers. She never stopped fighting for what +she knew was right. And through it all, she was always the best dressed woman in the room. We were blessed to know +Dr. Height, to benefit from her grace, passion and wisdom, and to call her our friend. For decades, starting with the early +days at the Children's Defense Fund, we worked with her, learned from her, and drew inspiration from her example. +From the Presidential Medal of Freedom, to the Congressional Gold Medal, to the unveiling of a long-sought-after bust +of Sojourner Truth in the United States Capitol, we had the privilege of helping honor Dr. Height and her +accomplishments. Born before women had the right to vote, denied access to the college of her choice because of the +color of her skin, and witness to nation divided, Dr. Height dedicated her life to the proposition that all Americans should +have the opportunity to live up to their full God-given potential. Our nation is poorer for her loss but infinitely richer for +the life she led, the progress she achieved, and the people she touched.

As the only woman among the ""Big Six"" civil rights leaders, Dr. Height helped galvanize a +movement that changed our country forever. She organized the ""Wednesdays in Mississippi"" meetings that brought +black and white women together to find common ground and break down barriers. She never stopped fighting for what +she knew was right. And through it all, she was always the best dressed woman in the room. We were blessed to know +Dr. Height, to benefit from her grace, passion and wisdom, and to call her our friend. For decades, starting with the early +days at the Children's Defense Fund, we worked with her, learned from her, and drew inspiration from her example. +From the Presidential Medal of Freedom, to the Congressional Gold Medal, to the unveiling of a long-sought-after bust +of Sojourner Truth in the United States Capitol, we had the privilege of helping honor Dr. Height and her +accomplishments. Born before women had the right to vote, denied access to the college of her choice because of the +color of her skin, and witness to nation divided, Dr. Height dedicated her life to the proposition that all Americans should +have the opportunity to live up to their full God-given potential. Our nation is poorer for her loss but infinitely richer for +the life she led, the progress she achieved, and the people she touched. Our thoughts and prayers are with Dr. Height's +family today, and with her many loving friends and colleagues. She would be the first to tell us that the best way to +honor her memory is to carry forward the work she started and the causes she championed, to open wide the freedom +gates. May we all find the strength and the wisdom to live up to her legacy. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768527 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4598,C05768532,(REUTERS) LUKASHENKO: DEPOSED KYRGYZ LEADER IN BELARUS,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-04-20T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0075/DOC_0C05768532/C05768532.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Fw: (Reuters) Lukashenko: Deposed Kyrgyz leader in Belarus,,"Abedin, Huma ",SES-O_Shift-II,"Tuesday, April 20, 2010 9:44 AM",F-2014-20439,C05768532,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768532 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Tuesday, April 20, 2010 9:44 AM +To: +Subject: Fw: (Reuters) Lukashenko: Deposed Kyrgyz leader in Belarus +From: Roberts, Kristin +To: NEWS-SCA; NEWS-Mahogany +Cc: SES-O_Shift-II +Sent: Tue Apr 20 08:54:52 2010 +Subject: (Reuters) Lukashenko: Deposed Kyrgyz leader in Belarus +MINSK (Reuters) - Belarussian leader Alexander Lukashenko said that Kyrgyzstan's former president, Kurmanbek +Bakiyev, was in the Belarussian capital, Minsk.

The urgency of this matter, as demonstrated +by the attempt on Christmas Day to destroy a U.S. passenger airliner, requires you to take quick +decisions in the immediate term to protect U.S. citizens. Over the coming days and weeks, +however, I encourage a more detailed and robust review of information and intelligence so that +individuals, organizations and nations that have been placed on ""watch"" lists for political or +reasons unrelated to terrorism — or whose circumstances have changed over time — are removed +from such lists. This cleansing and updating of information is critical so that U.S. attention, +resources and energy are focused on where threats genuinely reside, rather than squandered +where there is no documented threat. +One such State, for example, that should be removed from the State Sponsors of +Terrorism list and other similar ""watch"" lists is Cuba. The Pentagon, U.S. intelligence agencies +or the State Department's Office on Counter-Terrorism have not identified Cuba as a threat to +U.S. security. It is not engaged in nuclear proliferation or the production of biological or +chemical weapons. Shopworn arguments regarding relationships with terrorist groups, such as +the ETA, FARC or ELN, run contrary to fact. The individual ETA members who reside in Cuba +are there as a result of a 1984 agreement between Spain and Cuba to keep them on the island. As +Spain now assumes the presidency of the European Union, it is actively encouraging EU +members to ease restrictions and open up expanded relations with Cuba — hardly the action of a +country concerned about a terrorist attack being launched from Cuba. The Cuban government +engaged the Colombian guerrilla group, the ELN, in negotiations at the request of and with the +full and active engagement of Colombian President Uribe and his government. Cuba also made +the same offer to the FARC, at the request of the Uribe Administration, even though the FARC +M11 SiATIOWAY !■141NTEE113N Finec.6)FiEitrig, +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768601 Date: 08/31/2015 + incerely +44,. +1110. +James P. McGovern +Member of Congress +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768601 Date: 08/31/2015 +and Cuba are long-time ideological antagonists. In 2009, President Uribe re-established full +relations with Cuba, opening an embassy and sending an ambassador to serve on the island. +Further, there has never been any accusation, not even by U.S. authorities, that Colombian +guerrilla organizations have ever used Cuba as a site for terrorist or insurgent activities. +There are several individuals living in Cuba who are wanted for crimes, including +murder, in the United States. However, these are criminal activities, unrelated to terrorism. Due +to more than five decades of diplomatic isolation, the U.S. has no extradition treaty or any other +law enforcement or judicial mechanism set up with Cuba that would allow for their transfer back +to the United States to face trial. As you are aware, many of our closest friends and allies in Latin +America and elsewhere will not extradite or return individuals indicted for crimes in the United +States, in general because of objections to the U.S. death penalty, so this is not a justification for +a nation to appear on the terrorism list. +The United States has many long-standing political and diplomatic problems with Cuba, +but none of them relate to terrorism. In fact, engaging, collaborating and enlisting Cuba in the +fight against international terrorism would be to the advantage of U.S. national security. +As noted, this is but one example of a country that should be removed from the list of +State Sponsors of Terrorism; no doubt, there are other individuals and organizations that appear +on other lists that also merit serious review and possible removal. I encourage you to carry out a +thorough and judicious review of such lists, purge from them nations and organizations that +appear due to political and. policy reasons unrelated to the threat of terrorism, and restore +integrity to these watch lists so that our own precautionary measures and our coordination with +international intelligence and law enforcement agencies may be used to maximum 'effect and the +enhanced protection of our nation and citizens. +Thank you for your serious attention to these recommendations. Please know that I +would welcome any opportunity to discuss these matters in more detail with you. +JPM:cmb +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768601 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4633,C05768603,SUMMARY OF PSD/QDDR DC,H,"Slaughter, Anne-Marie",10,2010-04-21T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0075/DOC_0C05768603/C05768603.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Summary of PSD/QDDR DC,H,"Slaughter, Anne-Marie ","Campbell, Piper; Hyde, Dana","Wednesday, April 21, 2010 9:33 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768603,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"I know that Jack gave you a verbal summary, but here is the blow by blow.

Faced with +government incompetence and corruption, people are rebelling. +By Max Blumenthal +Dec 4, 2002 I The body of another murdered woman was found late last month in the Mexican industrial hub of Ciudad +Juarez, dumped behind some shrubs in the squalor of the Anapra neighborhood, a ramshackle hodgepodge of corrugated +tin and cardboard shacks on the sludge-washed banks of the Rio Grande. Her hands had been tied, and the evidence +suggested she had been raped. The body was so badly decomposed that investigators calculated that she'd been dead +for seven months. +However horrific the details, they were numbing in their familiarity. The body of a woman who had died in similar +circumstances was found in the same dusty lot a couple of months earlier. The bodies of eight women were found in a lot +not far away a little more than a year ago. So many women have been murdered here in the past 10 years that there is no +reliable count. Most experts place it close to 325, an average of 32 a year, nearly three every month. At least 90 of the +deaths are believed to be the work of one or more serial killers. Hundreds more women have simply vanished. +Like so many of the others, the woman whose body was found in late October had probably come to Juarez from the +poverty of southern Mexico to work for about $10 a day in one of the many foreign-owned assembly plants known as +maquiladoras that sprouted up in Juarez after the North American Free Trade Agreement was signed in 1994. And like +them, too, her body was unclaimed in death and buried alone and anonymous. +Such death has become a way of life here. So, too, with the fear and paranoia that rise in such a climate. Nobody knows +who is doing the killings, and the mystery only seems to deepen. Arrests made by local authorities have produced +allegations of torture, witness tampering and frame-ups -- but no convictions. Most here believe that the killer or killers +must have enormous clout. Perhaps, some say, the killers are narcotrafficantes disposing of witnesses. Perhaps they are +the sons of the wealthy and powerful indulging in sick sex. Perhaps they are cultists whose members come from the +highest levels of government and finance. The theories differ, but a common assumption is that arrests made thus far are +only a smokescreen for an historically opaque and corrupt government that will protect its dark secrets at any cost. +One thing seems clear: The murders arise from a social landscape that has been transformed by global economic forces. +Where Ciudad Juarez was once a small, sleepy desert outpost just across the border from El Paso, Texas, the population +in the past decade has exploded to 1.2 million people, many of them drawn by the lure of the maquiladoras. The tides of +people have overwhelmed the ability of the city to absorb them, overwhelmed health services, social services and law +enforcement. Free-trade advocates once promised that NAFTA would transform Juarez into the City of the Future -- and +they have been proven right in a way they never could have imagined. Today, Juarez still has the feel of the lawless Old +West, but with a grim 21st century edge. +Despite promises of swift justice from Mexican President Vicente Fox and Chihuahua Gov. Patricio Martinez, they have +yet to take up offers of assistance from the FBI; bureau agents in Texas have suggested that official corruption is +hindering efforts to stop the murders. Chihuahua state investigators have seemingly adopted a ""don't ask, don't tell"" policy +towards Juarez's homicides, fostering an atmosphere of impunity and pervasive fear. Foreign corporations operating in +Juarez that have employed many of the murdered women largely deny that such an atmosphere exists. +But in this postmodern urban culture, where the very concept of community has broken down, many bereaved family +members and local activists have begun to take matters into their own hands, investigating the murders and speaking out +even if it means threats and other reprisals. +Evangeline Arce's daughter, Silvia, a street vendor, disappeared on Nov. 3, 1998. Since that day, she said, the authorities +have done little to investigate. ""Two days after my daughter disappeared, I went to the police and filed a report,"" the +mother says in Spanish, her face flaring with anger. ""They promised me prompt action but when I checked back a week +later, the Missing persons report was never filed and the investigation had not even begun. When they finally got +witnesses together, none of them would talk because they were too afraid."" +Even as Mexico continues to make strides toward becoming an open and democratic society, the epidemic of rape and +murder here has exposed the heavy residue of its corrupt and authoritarian political legacy as well as the contradictions of +its efforts at economic expansion. +To understand the magnitude of the breakdown, think of the sniper rampage in the Washington area this fall that left 10 +people dead and three wounded. Imagine that Montgomery County Police Chief Charles Moose held a press conference +and asked local citizens to catch the sniper themselves because local police were not up to the task and the federal +government was not being helpful; imagine that the federal government charged that local officials in Montgomery County +were complicit in the killings and impeding the investigation. Chaos would ensue, certainly. But then, multiply. the number +of victims by 30, by 40, by 50, or more. +That's Juarez today. +The jumbled, exhaust-choked commercial core of this city has grown wildly in the wake of NAFTA, adding modern +shopping malls, condominiums and expansive boulevards. The population is growing at twice the rate of the national +average; it is expected to nearly double by 2010, to 2 million people. Many of them directly or indirectly rely on the 300 or +so maquiladoras for their livelihoods. +To accommodate the new army of workers, the city has given birth to entirely new sectors. The Campestre Juarez is a +luxurious conglomerate of gated communities, with a main gate that's a life-size replica of Paris' Arc de Triomphe. Nearby, +many of the maquiladoras are situated along the Avenida de la Industria. Though the assembly-line workers sometimes +can be glimpsed behind a plate glass window in aqua-blue uniforms, there usually is little sign of any activity behind the +maquiladoras' featureless walls. +Most of the new residents are poor, or on the brink of poverty, and they live in Anapra or another of the grim, violent +colonias populares on the outskirts of town. In those colonies, residents usually live without sanitation, running water, +electricity or paved roads. +Avenida Manuel Gomez Morin is the pothole-riddled six-lane avenue that ties these varied worlds together. Sitio Colosio +Valle, a medium-sized strip mall, stands on a corner of the avenue at the gateway to the industrial sector. It is fronted by a +vast parking lot and inside are various clothing outlets and boutiques. By day, the lot bustles as customers scurry back +and forth, hauling their purchases to their cars -- a sight similar to any mall in the suburban United States. By night, +however, traffic tapers off, stores lock up and the mall's lot becomes dark and desolate. Sitio Colosio Valle was where +many of the slain and missing women were last seen. +In the mall's parking lot, Braulio Rosas, a 40-year-old security guard, leans against the door of a giant Nike outlet. Inside +the store, under bright fluorescent lights, employees frantically check inventory and scramble to close up. +""A lot of girls were picked up here,"" Roses says in a voice of calm resignation. ""But really, it's the girls' fault. It's because +even though they weren't putas, [prostitutes] you know, they were more like fad/es [easy women]. They didn't have to get +into those cars if they didn't want to."" +Rosas sounds cynical, but blaming the victims is by no means an aberration in Juarez. Similar notions have been offered +by officials like Suly Ponce, the former Chihuahua special prosecutor in charge of the murdered women's cases. +""Sometimes there are cases that a girl meets some person, he strikes up a relationship with her, they drink ... and it ends +violently,"" she told the Washington Post in 2000, before she was promoted to a job in the governor's office. ""It's difficult to +know."" +A handful of the women found murdered since 1993 were indeed confirmed as prostitutes. But the truth is that a large +majority of the missing or murdered women were hardworking, young, poor and for the most part socially conservative. +Most had migrated to Juarez from Mexico's depressed south to work in the maquiladoras, sometimes arriving alone and +with little means of contacting their families back home. +The maquiladoras, run by companies like Delphi and RCA Thomson, prefer to hire young women for assembly-line jobs. +An entry-level assembly-line worker makes minimum wage, about $2 an hour. With experience, pay can rise to as much +as $2,50 an hour -- and compared to wages in Guerrero or Chiapas, that's good money. But in Juarez, the women are +caught in an economic trap: Since the cost of living here is only slighter lower than in El Paso, the wages that seem so +high to new maquiladora workers actually ensure poverty. The workers can be hired and fired on the spot, with little +pretext and no legal protection. And union activities are prohibited. +Even for those who accept the conditions, security is elusive. More often now, the global companies that own +maquiladoras are closing up shop and transferring operations to China to take advantage of lower taxes, investment +subsidies and outrageously cheap labor. On June 29, Royal Philips Electronics announced it was moving its P.C. monitor +manufacturing operations, at a cost of 900 jobs. On July 1, Scientific Atlanta fired 1,300 workers after shutting its plant +down. According to the Nov. 5 New York Times, this trend has cost Juarez 287,000 jobs in the maquiladoras since their +peak in October 2000. +Not only does this slash and burn the economic base. There are brutal social reverberations, too. The city's health +system, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, has reported 200,000 people falling from its list of insured after losing their +company policies, according to a July article in La Prensa. Esther Chavez Cano, director of Juarez's only battered- +women's shelter, Casa Amiga, said in a speech this summer that domestic violence cases had risen by 50 percent in July +alone. +The combination of poverty and a lack of social connections renders women on the assembly line powerless and virtually +invisible. And that has made them easy prey. According to the El Paso Times, about a third of the approximately 325 slain +women were employed by maquiladoras at the time of their murder. +Given that few of the maquiladoras provide shuttle service to and from the colonies, the female workers often are preyed +upon while walking through perilous places like Sitio Colosio Valle in the darkness of the early morning. At such an hour, +the only nearby activity is that of bars and nightclubs closing up as male patrons filter into the street after a long night of +drinking. +Besides China's attractive economic climate, an intangible cause of maquiladora flight is Juarez's chronic violence. The +effect is difficult to measure. Two companies in the city's industrial sector -- including TDK, the audio tape maker -- have +posted banners on their factories reading: ""STOP THE VIOLENCE. To Better Our City, Let's Unite."" But most foreign +companies are purely economic organisms governed entirely, it seems, by the dictates of efficiency. They have +maintained a stunning silence even as their female workers are slaughtered. +Consider the case of 17-year-old Claudia !vette Gonzalez. Her body was found in November 2001 along with seven +others in an overgrown cotton field on Avenida Technologico, just blocks from Sitio Colosio Valle mall and across the +street from the offices of the Association of Maquiladoras. She had worked on the assembly line for the Lear Corp., a +Detroit-based auto-interior supplier. Lear has declined to publicly address Gonzalez's murder. +Greg Bloom, editor of the Frontera Norte Sur -- an Internet news service that focuses on the U.S.-Mexico border -- +recalled a conversation with Gonzalez's mother, Josefina, in which she recounted her daughter's last day. In the darkness +of the early morning, Gonzalez told him, Claudia set out for her job at Lear. When she arrived at work a few minutes late +after missing her bus, Claudia lvette was promptly sent away under a policy barring tardy assembly-line workers from their +shifts. A half-hour past when she usually would have returned home, her mother knew something was gravely wrong. Her +worst fear -- the same nagging fear shared by so many Juarez mothers -- would soon be realized. +Andrea Puchalsky, Lear's director of communications, acknowledged that the company has not made any public +statements regarding Gonzalez's murder, nor has it enacted any proactive measures to protect employees from another +wave of violence. ""Adding security is not a question that relates to Lear,"" she said. ""[Gonzalez's murder] did not happen +on Lear property."" +When questioned about the murder and Lear policies, Puchalsky mentioned that a company memo was prepared for her +with responses to possible questions. As to Lear's worker-lockout policy, which apparently put Gonzalez in a precarious +situation the day of her abduction, Puchalsky declined to comment on whether Gonzalez was locked out or sent home +from Lear's plant on her last day. +""We have a policy for tardiness and she was tardy many times,"" Puchalsky said. ""When she had arrived late to work her +shift, she was not there in time to work her shift."" +When asked whether Lear's offices in the U.S. have a similar policy in which late employees are barred from working their +shifts, Puchalsky reversed her earlier statement, vehemently denying that such a policy existed anywhere within Lear's +operations. ""There is not a policy to send a worker home after X number of tardy arrivals,"" she said. ""Typically what we do +is if there is someone arriving late on kind of a warning system, there might be a notification that 'the next time you arrive +late, you have to take a day off ...' It's not a policy, though. There is no written policy like that throughout Lear Corp."" +The body of 17-year-old Lilia Alejandra Garcia was found mutilated just 300 feet from her maquiladora in February 2001, +and since then her case has come to embody the incompetence and corruption of police and prosecutors from Ciudad +Juarez to the state capital in Chihuahua City and south all the way to Mexico City. +Garcia, the mother of a 5-month-old baby and a 2-year-old child, apparently was kidnapped just after she left work. She +was held in captivity for a week, repeatedly beaten and raped, and then strangled. Then-prosecutor Suly Ponce told the +Juarez newspaper El Diario that Garcia was the first woman of the year to be murdered and raped in this area of the city - +- even though two days before, the body of an unidentified woman was found naked just blocks away. +When an FBI leak revealed witness testimony linking Lilia Garcia's killers to drug dealers, Suly Ponce dismissed it, calling +it erroneous. She instead blamed workers in a circus across the street from the strip mall where Garcia was last seen. +When circus managers claimed that Ponce offered them money to blame co-workers, she dropped the investigation. +According to a July article in the El Paso Times, former Chihuahua state forensic chief Oscar Maynez Grijalva said Garcia +was killed in a similar manner as three of the eight women found in the cotton field with Claudia 'vette Gonzalez in +November 2001. Curiously, local authorities behaved just as evasively in that investigation as in Garcia's. +When Gonzalez and the seven other women's bodies were found in November 2001, ex-Chihuahua Attorney General +Arturo Gonzalez Rascon immediately fingered two local bus drivers as the culprits. Yet doubts about their guilt arose, +especially after Grijalva -- who was Rascon's evidence expert at the time -- resigned from his post, citing pressure to +fabricate evidence against them. And the head of a local prison was forced from office when he documented signs of +torture on the accused men after they had returned from Rascon's office. +Four months later, in February 2002, a search-and-rescue team combing the cotton field found Claudia lvette Gonzalez's +overalls in a plastic bag, along with strands of hair and other crucial pieces of evidence that Rascon's investigators had +failed to discover. In response, Rascon offered his opinion to the El Paso Times: ""The state police have done a thoroughly +professional job. I have no doubt about that."" But on Oct. 28, DNA results revealed that Rascon's investigators had +properly identified only one of the eight dead women -- Gonzalez. +Stuck with a far more dubious task than catching one madman or replacing one feeble leader, Juarez's fractured civil +society has been paralyzed. A cynical mood is palpable just by speaking to citizens on the street, who unanimously +express fear and distrust of law-enforcement and government officials. Some local cops are just as cynical. +""We can't just sit around in deserted places waiting for someone to drive up and dump bodies off,"" said one municipal +police officer seated in an idling paddy wagon who refused to give his name for security reasons. ""There are too few of us +and the city's too big ... We don't get much support from the federal government. Judicially, we are not protected like cops +in the U.S. Plus, the arms they give us are weak and the bulletproof vests don't really stop bullets. It's not just that, +though. I have a young woman in my home so I can put myself in the place of the parents who have lost their daughters. +But it's a question of society. We need their support and they need them to be more conscious if it is going to get any +better here."" +The scope of the crime is so enormous, and there has been so little success in stopping it, that suspicion breeds on itself. +The litany of theories as to who the killers are and what their motive might be suggests that Juarez has become a +breeding ground for every imaginable predator. And yet, nobody knows. Nothing is certain. And that feeds the climate of +paranoia. +Garcia and Gonzalez's murders are rumored to be the work of a serial killer with possible ties to drug dealers. Yet Garcia +was found with marks on her wrists that, according to local forensics experts, were identical to those made by police +handcuffs. And upon the discovery of her daughter's overalls, Josefina Gonzalez told the El Paso Times that someone +powerful was undoubtedly responsible for the murder. +Many in Mexico's law enforcement community agree that a ring of rich men are behind some of the killings, but they have +no evidence to support the theory. Some suggest that some young men from the local aristocracy are responsible, but are +being protected by their parents. A persistent theory holds that the murders -- or a significant subset of them -- are linked +to powerful narcotraficantes who have co-opted segments of the local ruling class. +And the cynicism has been exacerbated by the fact that of the 17 men and one woman accused as serial killer +masterminds of the murders, only one has been convicted, Abdel Latif Sharif Sharif, an Egyptian chemist and resident of +Texas at the time of his extradition to Mexico in 1995. Currently, Sharif is awaiting sentencing for allegedly paying a drug +trafficker named Victor Manuel Rivera Moreno to carry out about a dozen murders. However, evidence against Sharif is +suspect and charges against him have been changed repeatedly. Once he was even charged with killing a woman, +Elizabeth Ontiveros, who showed up later at police offices to prove she was alive. +In 1996, Sharif was accused of paying the gang Los Rebeldes to kill 17 women. Then, in 1999, he was charged with hiring +five bus drivers and an El Paso man from his jail cell to kill seven women. Officials claimed Sharif hired the killers to +deflect blame from himself. By 1999, judges had cleared him of all charges, citing an absence of concrete evidence and +the possibility of witness intimidation by prosecutors. +Suly Ponce, who supervised the case, has yet to make a compelling case against him. In a 1999 radio interview, rather +than presenting hard evidence, she claimed Sharif was aggressively hostile toward women because of his Egyptian +background. Now she says that the case against Sharif hinges on Moreno's declaration that Sharif paid him to carry out +the killings with money he earned from 13 patents he developed for Benchmark Research and Technology. But according +to an article in the El Paso Times, Benchmark has never paid employees for patent development. In a telephone interview +last week with Salon, Ponce said she hadn't known this. Angela Paiaveras, the current special prosecutor, declined to +discuss Sharif's case or any aspect of the investigations. +Many local residents scoff at the notion that the killers have been caught. ""We don't believe that the guys they have +arrested are the killers,"" says Miguel Angel Jaramillo, a mid-level manager for the Lear Corp. ""It's obvious that they're just +scapegoats."" +Yet Ponce remains ardent in her belief that Sharif is at the center of the murders. ""Today the killings continue because +there are many imitators,"" she told Salon last week. ""But after Sharif was caught, there were almost no homicides for a +year."" But according to the Juarez daily El Diario, the year immediately after Sharif was jailed -- a period spanning from +October 1995 to October 1996 -- 28 young women were found murdered. +Meanwhile, the theories flourish and become more and more paranoid, reflecting a breakdown in public trust. By one +popular theory, the women are being murdered at blood rituals for a cabal of wealthy, powerful men. Another theory posits +a financial motive for murder. ""We're finding a lot of girls that are mutilated in the same way,"" says a young municipal +police officer who declined to give his name. ""Someone's probably killing them to take their organs to sell them for a lot of +money in the U.S."" When asked if there was any evidence to support the theory, the officer replied that it was only a +hunch. +Such a climate sends a message to the killers every day: You can get away with anything, even a crime on this scale. But +where such a climate breeds cynicism and hopelessness among people who live and work here, it has also provoked an +incipient revolt. +On her radio show ""Grueso Calibre"" (""Large Caliber""), popular host Samira lzaguirre frequently aired the views of guests +who were critical of how authorities handled the murders. When Attorney General Rascon accused the two bus drivers of +the cotton field murders in November 2001, lzaguirre hosted the drivers' wives on her show. After that interview, +advertisements began appearing in local newspapers smearing lzaguirre with claims that she frequented strip clubs and +was romantically involved with one of the bus drivers. News media on both sides of the border have reported that the +receipt for the ad was signed by government officials who paid for it. +Then, in February, when lzaguirre started organizing a vigil and announced a hunger strike on her show on Radio Canon, +she was fired. Fearing for her safety, she moved across the border to El Paso. +Others, too, have discovered that pressing the complaint too forcefully brings reprisal. Marisela Ortiz, co-director of +Nuestras Hijas Regreso a Casa (Our Daughters Back Home), a legal support group for victims' parents, was a frequent +guest on ""Grueso Calibre."" Like Izaguirre, Ortiz has focused her resources on drawing attention to government and police +incompetence in the slain women's cases. And she says that, like lzaguirre, she has faced ever-increasing danger. +In Nuestras Hijas' office in central Juarez, located inside a small one-story row house with a ""For Rent"" sign out front, +Ortiz described the shadow of terror that has stalked her since she began pressuring the authorities. +She claims she was threatened by ex-Chihuahua District Attorney Arturo Gonzalez Rascon. ""Rascon came all the way to +Juarez [from Chihuahua City] to tell me not to involve myself in all the cases,"" she tells Salon. ""Then I got a message on +my phone saying: 'You have daughters that are alive. Take care of them."" Rascon, in an earlier story by the Associated +Press, denied the allegation. +Last May, Ortiz says, she was pursued by men in a black pickup truck who tried to kidnap her. She believes the attempt +was orchestrated by Rascon's office since it occurred only a day before she had planned to travel to El Paso for a meeting +with the FBI and Texas state Sen. Eliot Shapleigh, D-El Paso, who is calling for a bi-national investigation into the +murders. +Victims' parents who came to Nuestras Hijas for help in finding their missing daughters also say they have been +threatened. Mario Lee Lopez and his wife, Soledad Aguilar, lost their daughter, Cecilia Covarrubias. She was kidnapped +in 1995 along with their granddaughter, who was two months old. By now their granddaughter would be 7, and Lopez and +Aguilar's own investigation has led them to believe that she is alive and living in the custody of a well-connected local +family. +To an outsider it is a desperate story, all but impossible to prove. Lopez accuses Ponce of coordinating the coverup of the +kidnappings and murder: again, Ponce denies the charge. And she was adamant that government officials have harassed +no one. ""I didn't have any knowledge of threats against anybody,"" she said. ""On the contrary, we support the families and +they are encouraged to be intimately involved in the investigations."" +Lopez recalls an incident in which he had gone to Juarez's judicial building to press his granddaughter's case and did not +exactly find the kind of support Ponce mentioned. While leaving the court, Lopez says, he was confronted by a high- +ranking minister who warned that if he didn't drop the investigation, he would be tortured with electric shock devices. +""But it's too late to stop now,"" Lopez adds with a wistful smile. +Despite the campaign against lzaguirre, or perhaps because of it, the vigil took place as scheduled in March. It was an +unprecedented show of solidarity, with thousands of people gathered in the cotton field where Gonzalez and the seven +others were found in an irrigation ditch. There are still tatters of yellow police tape there, and candleholders left from the +vigil are strewn over the site. Eight red crosses mark the spot where the bodies were found. +However, city officials have no plans to memorialize the site as Juarez's residents have. In fact, according to a Sept. 4 +article in El Diario, the site is now being used as a dumping ground for Juarez's Department of Parks and Gardens. +Near downtown Juarez there is a monument to Abraham Lincoln, honoring him for ""establishing North American +industries, today the most important in the world."" Not far away is a simple gallery where the Collective Antigone [Antigone +Collective], a group of local artists, has organized a series of public performances, installations and conferences focused +on Juarez's crisis of violence. +Each week, the artists gather to collaborate and discuss strategy. At a table with 12 other artists and writers, in an +expansive room filled with cubist-inspired paintings, Antonio Munoz Ortega, a 51-year-old writer, describes the Collective's +goals and the problems confronting the group. ""Our government is authoritarian, and authoritarian governments are +principally concerned with the manipulation of life,"" he says. ""The victims' families feel manipulated by the authorities' +insensitivity and this has manifested a greater and greater cynicism here that's really dangerous. The struggle, then, is for +reparation and simply regaining our daily lives."" +Ortega says he was moved to action by Samira Izaguirre's candlelight vigil in March. He describes the building of an +impromptu church in front of the Association of Maquiladoras office as an effort to ""communicate through a different +language, one that's symbolic."" This decision, he says, helped lead to the formation of the Collective. +The rallying cry for Collectiva Antigona, as evidenced by the name, has been Sophocles Greek tragedy, ""Antigone,"" +which tells the tale of a girl's persecution at the hands of a cruel dictator for burying her brother. The Collectiva has +organized readings of the play around the state of Chihuahua and plans a public performance in the future. +The Collectiva also has begun to establish a visual presence around central Juarez, most noticeably by painting a wall +spanning an entire block with poetry written by participants in a recent writer's conference on violence against women. On +Nov. 1 and 2, the Mexican holiday Dia de los Muertos, the collective filled a room with traditional altars honoring the +victims along with a giant cross in the center of the room covered with masks, intended to symbolize the anonymity of the +victims. An estimated 1,500 people viewed the exhibit. A week later, working with Nuestras Hijas, the collective placed a +coffin and flowers and had a bonfire in the cotton field ditch where Claudia Ivette Gonzalez and seven others were found. +""It is absolutely necessary to affect civil society with the intention of shaking the indolence and to provoke some sort of +reaction from the people,"" says Mariela Paniagua, a 41-year-old painter. ""People are no longer affected by what is +happening in this city. They have lost the capacity for outrage in the face of these acts."" +While Collectiva Antigona meets, another group gathers a few miles away to combat Juarez's violence by drastically +different means. Past the seemingly endless rows of cardboard hovels in the desperately poor CoIonia Morelos, beyond +the municipal dump, on a rocky desert mesa in the shadow of Mount Indio, members of a search-and-rescue group called +Banda Civil spread out through the hills to search for more murder victims. +Luz Elena Guerrero Guerra, a strong-looking woman in her late 50s with an intense gaze, serves as president of one of +Banda Civil's six divisions. Guerra tells of how it began as a search-and-rescue group in 1985 to assist during a massive +earthquake in Mexico City and evolved to respond to Juarez's crisis. She herself found the first slain women's bodies in +1989, before investigators had even identified the deadly trend. Today, Banda Civil's members still lend their help during +natural disasters but the bulk of their work comes in the search for bodies, monitoring of schools and a citywide crime- +awareness campaign. +Ever-present terror, coupled with the impotence of Juarez's authorities, forced Banda Civil's transformation, Guerra says. +""I've narrowly escaped violence many times,"" she explains. ""Sometimes it is just pure luck that a bus or a taxi happens to +come by in time when someone is chasing me ... All of us, we're uncertain of what the authorities are telling us. That's our +indignation. If they [the authorities] aren't interested in helping, we'll pressure them."" +Because the group is required by law to cooperate with police, some view it with suspicion. Yet they have had success +where most other activist groups have failed. It was Banda Civil members who made the crucial discovery of Claudia +lvette Gonzalez's overalls in February, humiliating Attorney General Rascon and breathing new life into the investigation. +And Banda Civil has continued to find more evidence during their weekly searches of Juarez's human dumping grounds. +Besides its role as a search-and-rescue/quasi-vigilante group, Banda Civil has the feel of a support group, providing +members with an outlet from the daily fear that comes with life in Juarez. According to Guerra, over 300 people have +accompanied the group on searches and many of them are family members of missing women. And indeed, the searches +are a family activity. +On one recent Saturday, the search was joined by about 60 participants of all ages and from all sectors of Juarez society, +including a middle manager from the Lear Corp. There were no terrible discoveries that day, and yet afterward, as people +stood around talked and listened to norteno music blaring from a car stereo, it was evident just how deeply the murders +are ingrained into life here -- and how some people are fighting back with whatever tools they have at hand. Perhaps the +quiet optimism is derived from the age-old Mexican axiom that death brings about rebirth. +""Instead of spending our time criticizing the authorities, we're trying to find some solutions,"" says Santos. ""We all have +sisters and daughters here and we all feel the same. My daughter is in danger. I can't let her live like this."" +-- By Max Blumenthal +[3( +Copyright © 2010 Salon Media Group, Inc.

Faced with +government incompetence and corruption, people are rebelling. +By Max Blumenthal +Dec 4, 2002 I The body of another murdered woman was found late last month in the Mexican industrial hub of Ciudad +Juarez, dumped behind some shrubs in the squalor of the Anapra neighborhood, a ramshackle hodgepodge of corrugated +tin and cardboard shacks on the sludge-washed banks of the Rio Grande. Her hands had been tied, and the evidence +suggested she had been raped. The body was so badly decomposed that investigators calculated that she'd been dead +for seven months. +However horrific the details, they were numbing in their familiarity. The body of a woman who had died in similar +circumstances was found in the same dusty lot a couple of months earlier. The bodies of eight women were found in a lot +not far away a little more than a year ago. So many women have been murdered here in the past 10 years that there is no +reliable count. Most experts place it close to 325, an average of 32 a year, nearly three every month. At least 90 of the +deaths are believed to be the work of one or more serial killers. Hundreds more women have simply vanished. +Like so many of the others, the woman whose body was found in late October had probably come to Juarez from the +poverty of southern Mexico to work for about $10 a day in one of the many foreign-owned assembly plants known as +maquiladoras that sprouted up in Juarez after the North American Free Trade Agreement was signed in 1994. And like +them, too, her body was unclaimed in death and buried alone and anonymous. +Such death has become a way of life here. So, too, with the fear and paranoia that rise in such a climate. Nobody knows +who is doing the killings, and the mystery only seems to deepen. Arrests made by local authorities have produced +allegations of torture, witness tampering and frame-ups -- but no convictions. Most here believe that the killer or killers +must have enormous clout. Perhaps, some say, the killers are narcotrafficantes disposing of witnesses. Perhaps they are +the sons of the wealthy and powerful indulging in sick sex. Perhaps they are cultists whose members come from the +highest levels of government and finance. The theories differ, but a common assumption is that arrests made thus far are +only a smokescreen for an historically opaque and corrupt government that will protect its dark secrets at any cost. +One thing seems clear: The murders arise from a social landscape that has been transformed by global economic forces. +Where Ciudad Juarez was once a small, sleepy desert outpost just across the border from El Paso, Texas, the population +in the past decade has exploded to 1.2 million people, many of them drawn by the lure of the maquiladoras. The tides of +people have overwhelmed the ability of the city to absorb them, overwhelmed health services, social services and law +enforcement. Free-trade advocates once promised that NAFTA would transform Juarez into the City of the Future -- and +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 +they have been proven right in a way they never could have imagined. Today, Juarez still has the feel of the lawless Old +West, but with a grim 21st century edge. +Despite promises of swift justice from Mexican President Vicente Fox and Chihuahua Gov. Patricio Martinez, they have +yet to take up offers of assistance from the FBI; bureau agents in Texas have suggested that official corruption is +hindering efforts to stop the murders. Chihuahua state investigators have seemingly adopted a ""don't ask, don't tell"" policy +towards Juarez's homicides, fostering an atmosphere of impunity and pervasive fear. Foreign corporations operating in +Juarez that have employed many of the murdered women largely deny that such an atmosphere exists. +But in this postmodern urban culture, where the very concept of community has broken down, many bereaved family +members and local activists have begun to take matters into their own hands, investigating the murders and speaking out +even if it means threats and other reprisals. +Evangeline Arce's daughter, Silvia, a street vendor, disappeared on Nov. 3, 1998. Since that day, she said, the authorities +have done little to investigate. ""Two days after my daughter disappeared, I went to the police and filed a report,"" the +mother says in Spanish, her face flaring with anger. ""They promised me prompt action but when I checked back a week +later, the Missing persons report was never filed and the investigation had not even begun. When they finally got +witnesses together, none of them would talk because they were too afraid."" +Even as Mexico continues to make strides toward becoming an open and democratic society, the epidemic of rape and +murder here has exposed the heavy residue of its corrupt and authoritarian political legacy as well as the contradictions of +its efforts at economic expansion. +To understand the magnitude of the breakdown, think of the sniper rampage in the Washington area this fall that left 10 +people dead and three wounded. Imagine that Montgomery County Police Chief Charles Moose held a press conference +and asked local citizens to catch the sniper themselves because local police were not up to the task and the federal +government was not being helpful; imagine that the federal government charged that local officials in Montgomery County +were complicit in the killings and impeding the investigation. Chaos would ensue, certainly. But then, multiply. the number +of victims by 30, by 40, by 50, or more. +That's Juarez today. +The jumbled, exhaust-choked commercial core of this city has grown wildly in the wake of NAFTA, adding modern +shopping malls, condominiums and expansive boulevards. The population is growing at twice the rate of the national +average; it is expected to nearly double by 2010, to 2 million people. Many of them directly or indirectly rely on the 300 or +so maquiladoras for their livelihoods. +To accommodate the new army of workers, the city has given birth to entirely new sectors. The Campestre Juarez is a +luxurious conglomerate of gated communities, with a main gate that's a life-size replica of Paris' Arc de Triomphe. Nearby, +many of the maquiladoras are situated along the Avenida de la Industria. Though the assembly-line workers sometimes +can be glimpsed behind a plate glass window in aqua-blue uniforms, there usually is little sign of any activity behind the +maquiladoras' featureless walls. +Most of the new residents are poor, or on the brink of poverty, and they live in Anapra or another of the grim, violent +colonias populares on the outskirts of town. In those colonies, residents usually live without sanitation, running water, +electricity or paved roads. +Avenida Manuel Gomez Morin is the pothole-riddled six-lane avenue that ties these varied worlds together. Sitio Colosio +Valle, a medium-sized strip mall, stands on a corner of the avenue at the gateway to the industrial sector. It is fronted by a +vast parking lot and inside are various clothing outlets and boutiques. By day, the lot bustles as customers scurry back +and forth, hauling their purchases to their cars -- a sight similar to any mall in the suburban United States. By night, +however, traffic tapers off, stores lock up and the mall's lot becomes dark and desolate. Sitio Colosio Valle was where +many of the slain and missing women were last seen. +In the mall's parking lot, Braulio Rosas, a 40-year-old security guard, leans against the door of a giant Nike outlet. Inside +the store, under bright fluorescent lights, employees frantically check inventory and scramble to close up. +""A lot of girls were picked up here,"" Roses says in a voice of calm resignation. ""But really, it's the girls' fault. It's because +even though they weren't putas, [prostitutes] you know, they were more like fad/es [easy women]. They didn't have to get +into those cars if they didn't want to."" +Rosas sounds cynical, but blaming the victims is by no means an aberration in Juarez. Similar notions have been offered +by officials like Suly Ponce, the former Chihuahua special prosecutor in charge of the murdered women's cases. +""Sometimes there are cases that a girl meets some person, he strikes up a relationship with her, they drink ... and it ends +violently,"" she told the Washington Post in 2000, before she was promoted to a job in the governor's office. ""It's difficult to +know."" +A handful of the women found murdered since 1993 were indeed confirmed as prostitutes. But the truth is that a large +majority of the missing or murdered women were hardworking, young, poor and for the most part socially conservative. +Most had migrated to Juarez from Mexico's depressed south to work in the maquiladoras, sometimes arriving alone and +with little means of contacting their families back home. +The maquiladoras, run by companies like Delphi and RCA Thomson, prefer to hire young women for assembly-line jobs. +An entry-level assembly-line worker makes minimum wage, about $2 an hour. With experience, pay can rise to as much +as $2,50 an hour -- and compared to wages in Guerrero or Chiapas, that's good money. But in Juarez, the women are +caught in an economic trap: Since the cost of living here is only slighter lower than in El Paso, the wages that seem so +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 +high to new maquiladora workers actually ensure poverty. The workers can be hired and fired on the spot, with little +pretext and no legal protection. And union activities are prohibited. +Even for those who accept the conditions, security is elusive. More often now, the global companies that own +maquiladoras are closing up shop and transferring operations to China to take advantage of lower taxes, investment +subsidies and outrageously cheap labor. On June 29, Royal Philips Electronics announced it was moving its P.C. monitor +manufacturing operations, at a cost of 900 jobs. On July 1, Scientific Atlanta fired 1,300 workers after shutting its plant +down. According to the Nov. 5 New York Times, this trend has cost Juarez 287,000 jobs in the maquiladoras since their +peak in October 2000. +Not only does this slash and burn the economic base. There are brutal social reverberations, too. The city's health +system, Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, has reported 200,000 people falling from its list of insured after losing their +company policies, according to a July article in La Prensa. Esther Chavez Cano, director of Juarez's only battered- +women's shelter, Casa Amiga, said in a speech this summer that domestic violence cases had risen by 50 percent in July +alone. +The combination of poverty and a lack of social connections renders women on the assembly line powerless and virtually +invisible. And that has made them easy prey. According to the El Paso Times, about a third of the approximately 325 slain +women were employed by maquiladoras at the time of their murder. +Given that few of the maquiladoras provide shuttle service to and from the colonies, the female workers often are preyed +upon while walking through perilous places like Sitio Colosio Valle in the darkness of the early morning. At such an hour, +the only nearby activity is that of bars and nightclubs closing up as male patrons filter into the street after a long night of +drinking. +Besides China's attractive economic climate, an intangible cause of maquiladora flight is Juarez's chronic violence. The +effect is difficult to measure. Two companies in the city's industrial sector -- including TDK, the audio tape maker -- have +posted banners on their factories reading: ""STOP THE VIOLENCE. To Better Our City, Let's Unite."" But most foreign +companies are purely economic organisms governed entirely, it seems, by the dictates of efficiency. They have +maintained a stunning silence even as their female workers are slaughtered. +Consider the case of 17-year-old Claudia !vette Gonzalez. Her body was found in November 2001 along with seven +others in an overgrown cotton field on Avenida Technologico, just blocks from Sitio Colosio Valle mall and across the +street from the offices of the Association of Maquiladoras. She had worked on the assembly line for the Lear Corp., a +Detroit-based auto-interior supplier. Lear has declined to publicly address Gonzalez's murder. +Greg Bloom, editor of the Frontera Norte Sur -- an Internet news service that focuses on the U.S.-Mexico border -- +recalled a conversation with Gonzalez's mother, Josefina, in which she recounted her daughter's last day. In the darkness +of the early morning, Gonzalez told him, Claudia set out for her job at Lear. When she arrived at work a few minutes late +after missing her bus, Claudia lvette was promptly sent away under a policy barring tardy assembly-line workers from their +shifts. A half-hour past when she usually would have returned home, her mother knew something was gravely wrong. Her +worst fear -- the same nagging fear shared by so many Juarez mothers -- would soon be realized. +Andrea Puchalsky, Lear's director of communications, acknowledged that the company has not made any public +statements regarding Gonzalez's murder, nor has it enacted any proactive measures to protect employees from another +wave of violence. ""Adding security is not a question that relates to Lear,"" she said. ""[Gonzalez's murder] did not happen +on Lear property."" +When questioned about the murder and Lear policies, Puchalsky mentioned that a company memo was prepared for her +with responses to possible questions. As to Lear's worker-lockout policy, which apparently put Gonzalez in a precarious +situation the day of her abduction, Puchalsky declined to comment on whether Gonzalez was locked out or sent home +from Lear's plant on her last day. +""We have a policy for tardiness and she was tardy many times,"" Puchalsky said. ""When she had arrived late to work her +shift, she was not there in time to work her shift."" +When asked whether Lear's offices in the U.S. have a similar policy in which late employees are barred from working their +shifts, Puchalsky reversed her earlier statement, vehemently denying that such a policy existed anywhere within Lear's +operations. ""There is not a policy to send a worker home after X number of tardy arrivals,"" she said. ""Typically what we do +is if there is someone arriving late on kind of a warning system, there might be a notification that 'the next time you arrive +late, you have to take a day off ...' It's not a policy, though. There is no written policy like that throughout Lear Corp."" +The body of 17-year-old Lilia Alejandra Garcia was found mutilated just 300 feet from her maquiladora in February 2001, +and since then her case has come to embody the incompetence and corruption of police and prosecutors from Ciudad +Juarez to the state capital in Chihuahua City and south all the way to Mexico City. +Garcia, the mother of a 5-month-old baby and a 2-year-old child, apparently was kidnapped just after she left work. She +was held in captivity for a week, repeatedly beaten and raped, and then strangled. Then-prosecutor Suly Ponce told the +Juarez newspaper El Diario that Garcia was the first woman of the year to be murdered and raped in this area of the city - +- even though two days before, the body of an unidentified woman was found naked just blocks away. +When an FBI leak revealed witness testimony linking Lilia Garcia's killers to drug dealers, Suly Ponce dismissed it, calling +it erroneous. She instead blamed workers in a circus across the street from the strip mall where Garcia was last seen. +When circus managers claimed that Ponce offered them money to blame co-workers, she dropped the investigation. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 +According to a July article in the El Paso Times, former Chihuahua state forensic chief Oscar Maynez Grijalva said Garcia +was killed in a similar manner as three of the eight women found in the cotton field with Claudia 'vette Gonzalez in +November 2001. Curiously, local authorities behaved just as evasively in that investigation as in Garcia's. +When Gonzalez and the seven other women's bodies were found in November 2001, ex-Chihuahua Attorney General +Arturo Gonzalez Rascon immediately fingered two local bus drivers as the culprits. Yet doubts about their guilt arose, +especially after Grijalva -- who was Rascon's evidence expert at the time -- resigned from his post, citing pressure to +fabricate evidence against them. And the head of a local prison was forced from office when he documented signs of +torture on the accused men after they had returned from Rascon's office. +Four months later, in February 2002, a search-and-rescue team combing the cotton field found Claudia lvette Gonzalez's +overalls in a plastic bag, along with strands of hair and other crucial pieces of evidence that Rascon's investigators had +failed to discover. In response, Rascon offered his opinion to the El Paso Times: ""The state police have done a thoroughly +professional job. I have no doubt about that."" But on Oct. 28, DNA results revealed that Rascon's investigators had +properly identified only one of the eight dead women -- Gonzalez. +Stuck with a far more dubious task than catching one madman or replacing one feeble leader, Juarez's fractured civil +society has been paralyzed. A cynical mood is palpable just by speaking to citizens on the street, who unanimously +express fear and distrust of law-enforcement and government officials. Some local cops are just as cynical. +""We can't just sit around in deserted places waiting for someone to drive up and dump bodies off,"" said one municipal +police officer seated in an idling paddy wagon who refused to give his name for security reasons. ""There are too few of us +and the city's too big ... We don't get much support from the federal government. Judicially, we are not protected like cops +in the U.S. Plus, the arms they give us are weak and the bulletproof vests don't really stop bullets. It's not just that, +though. I have a young woman in my home so I can put myself in the place of the parents who have lost their daughters. +But it's a question of society. We need their support and they need them to be more conscious if it is going to get any +better here."" +The scope of the crime is so enormous, and there has been so little success in stopping it, that suspicion breeds on itself. +The litany of theories as to who the killers are and what their motive might be suggests that Juarez has become a +breeding ground for every imaginable predator. And yet, nobody knows. Nothing is certain. And that feeds the climate of +paranoia. +Garcia and Gonzalez's murders are rumored to be the work of a serial killer with possible ties to drug dealers. Yet Garcia +was found with marks on her wrists that, according to local forensics experts, were identical to those made by police +handcuffs. And upon the discovery of her daughter's overalls, Josefina Gonzalez told the El Paso Times that someone +powerful was undoubtedly responsible for the murder. +Many in Mexico's law enforcement community agree that a ring of rich men are behind some of the killings, but they have +no evidence to support the theory. Some suggest that some young men from the local aristocracy are responsible, but are +being protected by their parents. A persistent theory holds that the murders -- or a significant subset of them -- are linked +to powerful narcotraficantes who have co-opted segments of the local ruling class. +And the cynicism has been exacerbated by the fact that of the 17 men and one woman accused as serial killer +masterminds of the murders, only one has been convicted, Abdel Latif Sharif Sharif, an Egyptian chemist and resident of +Texas at the time of his extradition to Mexico in 1995. Currently, Sharif is awaiting sentencing for allegedly paying a drug +trafficker named Victor Manuel Rivera Moreno to carry out about a dozen murders. However, evidence against Sharif is +suspect and charges against him have been changed repeatedly. Once he was even charged with killing a woman, +Elizabeth Ontiveros, who showed up later at police offices to prove she was alive. +In 1996, Sharif was accused of paying the gang Los Rebeldes to kill 17 women. Then, in 1999, he was charged with hiring +five bus drivers and an El Paso man from his jail cell to kill seven women. Officials claimed Sharif hired the killers to +deflect blame from himself. By 1999, judges had cleared him of all charges, citing an absence of concrete evidence and +the possibility of witness intimidation by prosecutors. +Suly Ponce, who supervised the case, has yet to make a compelling case against him. In a 1999 radio interview, rather +than presenting hard evidence, she claimed Sharif was aggressively hostile toward women because of his Egyptian +background. Now she says that the case against Sharif hinges on Moreno's declaration that Sharif paid him to carry out +the killings with money he earned from 13 patents he developed for Benchmark Research and Technology. But according +to an article in the El Paso Times, Benchmark has never paid employees for patent development. In a telephone interview +last week with Salon, Ponce said she hadn't known this. Angela Paiaveras, the current special prosecutor, declined to +discuss Sharif's case or any aspect of the investigations. +Many local residents scoff at the notion that the killers have been caught. ""We don't believe that the guys they have +arrested are the killers,"" says Miguel Angel Jaramillo, a mid-level manager for the Lear Corp. ""It's obvious that they're just +scapegoats."" +Yet Ponce remains ardent in her belief that Sharif is at the center of the murders. ""Today the killings continue because +there are many imitators,"" she told Salon last week. ""But after Sharif was caught, there were almost no homicides for a +year."" But according to the Juarez daily El Diario, the year immediately after Sharif was jailed -- a period spanning from +October 1995 to October 1996 -- 28 young women were found murdered. +Meanwhile, the theories flourish and become more and more paranoid, reflecting a breakdown in public trust. By one +popular theory, the women are being murdered at blood rituals for a cabal of wealthy, powerful men. Another theory posits +a financial motive for murder. ""We're finding a lot of girls that are mutilated in the same way,"" says a young municipal +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 +police officer who declined to give his name. ""Someone's probably killing them to take their organs to sell them for a lot of +money in the U.S."" When asked if there was any evidence to support the theory, the officer replied that it was only a +hunch. +Such a climate sends a message to the killers every day: You can get away with anything, even a crime on this scale. But +where such a climate breeds cynicism and hopelessness among people who live and work here, it has also provoked an +incipient revolt. +On her radio show ""Grueso Calibre"" (""Large Caliber""), popular host Samira lzaguirre frequently aired the views of guests +who were critical of how authorities handled the murders. When Attorney General Rascon accused the two bus drivers of +the cotton field murders in November 2001, lzaguirre hosted the drivers' wives on her show. After that interview, +advertisements began appearing in local newspapers smearing lzaguirre with claims that she frequented strip clubs and +was romantically involved with one of the bus drivers. News media on both sides of the border have reported that the +receipt for the ad was signed by government officials who paid for it. +Then, in February, when lzaguirre started organizing a vigil and announced a hunger strike on her show on Radio Canon, +she was fired. Fearing for her safety, she moved across the border to El Paso. +Others, too, have discovered that pressing the complaint too forcefully brings reprisal. Marisela Ortiz, co-director of +Nuestras Hijas Regreso a Casa (Our Daughters Back Home), a legal support group for victims' parents, was a frequent +guest on ""Grueso Calibre."" Like Izaguirre, Ortiz has focused her resources on drawing attention to government and police +incompetence in the slain women's cases. And she says that, like lzaguirre, she has faced ever-increasing danger. +In Nuestras Hijas' office in central Juarez, located inside a small one-story row house with a ""For Rent"" sign out front, +Ortiz described the shadow of terror that has stalked her since she began pressuring the authorities. +She claims she was threatened by ex-Chihuahua District Attorney Arturo Gonzalez Rascon. ""Rascon came all the way to +Juarez [from Chihuahua City] to tell me not to involve myself in all the cases,"" she tells Salon. ""Then I got a message on +my phone saying: 'You have daughters that are alive. Take care of them."" Rascon, in an earlier story by the Associated +Press, denied the allegation. +Last May, Ortiz says, she was pursued by men in a black pickup truck who tried to kidnap her. She believes the attempt +was orchestrated by Rascon's office since it occurred only a day before she had planned to travel to El Paso for a meeting +with the FBI and Texas state Sen. Eliot Shapleigh, D-El Paso, who is calling for a bi-national investigation into the +murders. +Victims' parents who came to Nuestras Hijas for help in finding their missing daughters also say they have been +threatened. Mario Lee Lopez and his wife, Soledad Aguilar, lost their daughter, Cecilia Covarrubias. She was kidnapped +in 1995 along with their granddaughter, who was two months old. By now their granddaughter would be 7, and Lopez and +Aguilar's own investigation has led them to believe that she is alive and living in the custody of a well-connected local +family. +To an outsider it is a desperate story, all but impossible to prove. Lopez accuses Ponce of coordinating the coverup of the +kidnappings and murder: again, Ponce denies the charge. And she was adamant that government officials have harassed +no one. ""I didn't have any knowledge of threats against anybody,"" she said. ""On the contrary, we support the families and +they are encouraged to be intimately involved in the investigations."" +Lopez recalls an incident in which he had gone to Juarez's judicial building to press his granddaughter's case and did not +exactly find the kind of support Ponce mentioned. While leaving the court, Lopez says, he was confronted by a high- +ranking minister who warned that if he didn't drop the investigation, he would be tortured with electric shock devices. +""But it's too late to stop now,"" Lopez adds with a wistful smile. +Despite the campaign against lzaguirre, or perhaps because of it, the vigil took place as scheduled in March. It was an +unprecedented show of solidarity, with thousands of people gathered in the cotton field where Gonzalez and the seven +others were found in an irrigation ditch. There are still tatters of yellow police tape there, and candleholders left from the +vigil are strewn over the site. Eight red crosses mark the spot where the bodies were found. +However, city officials have no plans to memorialize the site as Juarez's residents have. In fact, according to a Sept. 4 +article in El Diario, the site is now being used as a dumping ground for Juarez's Department of Parks and Gardens. +Near downtown Juarez there is a monument to Abraham Lincoln, honoring him for ""establishing North American +industries, today the most important in the world."" Not far away is a simple gallery where the Collective Antigone [Antigone +Collective], a group of local artists, has organized a series of public performances, installations and conferences focused +on Juarez's crisis of violence. +Each week, the artists gather to collaborate and discuss strategy. At a table with 12 other artists and writers, in an +expansive room filled with cubist-inspired paintings, Antonio Munoz Ortega, a 51-year-old writer, describes the Collective's +goals and the problems confronting the group. ""Our government is authoritarian, and authoritarian governments are +principally concerned with the manipulation of life,"" he says. ""The victims' families feel manipulated by the authorities' +insensitivity and this has manifested a greater and greater cynicism here that's really dangerous. The struggle, then, is for +reparation and simply regaining our daily lives."" +Ortega says he was moved to action by Samira Izaguirre's candlelight vigil in March. He describes the building of an +impromptu church in front of the Association of Maquiladoras office as an effort to ""communicate through a different +language, one that's symbolic."" This decision, he says, helped lead to the formation of the Collective. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768643 Date: 08/31/2015 +The rallying cry for Collectiva Antigona, as evidenced by the name, has been Sophocles Greek tragedy, ""Antigone,"" +which tells the tale of a girl's persecution at the hands of a cruel dictator for burying her brother. The Collectiva has +organized readings of the play around the state of Chihuahua and plans a public performance in the future. +The Collectiva also has begun to establish a visual presence around central Juarez, most noticeably by painting a wall +spanning an entire block with poetry written by participants in a recent writer's conference on violence against women. On +Nov. 1 and 2, the Mexican holiday Dia de los Muertos, the collective filled a room with traditional altars honoring the +victims along with a giant cross in the center of the room covered with masks, intended to symbolize the anonymity of the +victims. An estimated 1,500 people viewed the exhibit. A week later, working with Nuestras Hijas, the collective placed a +coffin and flowers and had a bonfire in the cotton field ditch where Claudia Ivette Gonzalez and seven others were found. +""It is absolutely necessary to affect civil society with the intention of shaking the indolence and to provoke some sort of +reaction from the people,"" says Mariela Paniagua, a 41-year-old painter. ""People are no longer affected by what is +happening in this city. They have lost the capacity for outrage in the face of these acts."" +While Collectiva Antigona meets, another group gathers a few miles away to combat Juarez's violence by drastically +different means. Past the seemingly endless rows of cardboard hovels in the desperately poor CoIonia Morelos, beyond +the municipal dump, on a rocky desert mesa in the shadow of Mount Indio, members of a search-and-rescue group called +Banda Civil spread out through the hills to search for more murder victims. +Luz Elena Guerrero Guerra, a strong-looking woman in her late 50s with an intense gaze, serves as president of one of +Banda Civil's six divisions. Guerra tells of how it began as a search-and-rescue group in 1985 to assist during a massive +earthquake in Mexico City and evolved to respond to Juarez's crisis. She herself found the first slain women's bodies in +1989, before investigators had even identified the deadly trend. Today, Banda Civil's members still lend their help during +natural disasters but the bulk of their work comes in the search for bodies, monitoring of schools and a citywide crime- +awareness campaign. +Ever-present terror, coupled with the impotence of Juarez's authorities, forced Banda Civil's transformation, Guerra says. +""I've narrowly escaped violence many times,"" she explains. ""Sometimes it is just pure luck that a bus or a taxi happens to +come by in time when someone is chasing me ... All of us, we're uncertain of what the authorities are telling us. That's our +indignation. If they [the authorities] aren't interested in helping, we'll pressure them."" +Because the group is required by law to cooperate with police, some view it with suspicion. Yet they have had success +where most other activist groups have failed. It was Banda Civil members who made the crucial discovery of Claudia +lvette Gonzalez's overalls in February, humiliating Attorney General Rascon and breathing new life into the investigation. +And Banda Civil has continued to find more evidence during their weekly searches of Juarez's human dumping grounds. +Besides its role as a search-and-rescue/quasi-vigilante group, Banda Civil has the feel of a support group, providing +members with an outlet from the daily fear that comes with life in Juarez. According to Guerra, over 300 people have +accompanied the group on searches and many of them are family members of missing women. And indeed, the searches +are a family activity. +On one recent Saturday, the search was joined by about 60 participants of all ages and from all sectors of Juarez society, +including a middle manager from the Lear Corp. There were no terrible discoveries that day, and yet afterward, as people +stood around talked and listened to norteno music blaring from a car stereo, it was evident just how deeply the murders +are ingrained into life here -- and how some people are fighting back with whatever tools they have at hand. Perhaps the +quiet optimism is derived from the age-old Mexican axiom that death brings about rebirth. +""Instead of spending our time criticizing the authorities, we're trying to find some solutions,"" says Santos. ""We all have +sisters and daughters here and we all feel the same. My daughter is in danger. I can't let her live like this."" +-- By Max Blumenthal +[3( +Copyright © 2010 Salon Media Group, Inc.

They, unlike a majority of Israelis, who have come to the +conclusion that they can live with a two-state solution to be determined by the parties, the majority of +Palestinians are still very reluctant, and they need to be pushed to get there. +""If the U.S. says certain things and takes certain stands the Palestinians say, 'Why should we negotiate?"" +Schumer said. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768665 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768665 Date: 08/31/2015 +Schumer described the recent confrontation over construction in Jerusalem as a ""kerfuffle."" +""Israel apologized and when Biden left, and Biden is the best friend of Israel in the administration +[and] everything was fine,"" Schumer said.

""That is the dagger because the relationship is much deeper than the +disagreements on negotiations, and most Americans—Democrat, Republican, Jew, non-Jew—would feel that. So +I called up Rahm Emanuel and I called up the White House and I said, 'If you don't retract that statement you +are going to hear me publicly blast you on this,"" Schumer said. +Schumer said the White House had backed off that statement, but that now ""many of us are pushing back, some +of the Jewish members will be meeting with the President next week or the week after, and we are saying that +this has to stop."" +""You have to show Israel that it's not going to be forced to do things it doesn't want to do and can't do. At the +same time you have to show the Palestinians that they are not going to get their way by just sitting back and not +giving in, and not recognizing that there is a state of Israel,"" Schumer said. ""And right now there is a battle +going on inside the administration, one side agrees with us, one side doesn't, and we're pushing hard to make +sure the right side wins and if not we'll have to take it to the next step."" +The full transcript of Segal's interview with Schumer is after the jump. +Chuck Schumer Interview with Nachum Segal 4/22/10 +Nachum Segal: Straight to what has become one of the most concerning issues in the Jewish Community +certainly, and for anybody in the United States, and anywhere in the world who cares somewhat, or more, +about Israel. There is a perception that the White House and Jerusalem are not enjoying the same type of +relationship that the White House and Jerusalem have enjoyed in the past. Need we be concerned? +SCHUMER: Well of course we should be concerned, and the thing we should most be concerned about, of +course, the threat to Israel...I mean it always changes but it's always there it seems to be the fate if Israel and +it seems to be the fate of the Jewish people. Right now what are the threats? I would rank them in this order: +Greatest threat- Nuclear Iran, obviously as Netanyahu has said that's an existential threat. Second greatest +threat- SCUDs in Syria these are rockets +that can go four or five hundred miles and carry a bigger payload and could be launched by Hezbollah and hit +any part of Israel far more damaging and devastating than the katyusha rockets. And third actually is what +everyone is focused on, which is the disagreements +between the United States and Israel, very real, on how to sit down and negotiate with the Palestinians. The +irony is Nachum, on the first two, if you talk to the Prime Minister if you talk to the Israeli military, US-Israeli +cooperation continues strong and +hand in glove. Both the US and Israel greatly fear a nuclear Iran, and there are very serious discussions going on +as to how to deal with it. We in the Congress Senator Lieberman and myself, Senator Bayh, are working up our +sanctions bill, which even if the +UN sanctions are weak we could have unilateral sanctions by the United States, for instance, if you cut of +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768665 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768665 Date: 08/31/2015 +gasoline. Iranians do not produce their own gasoline, and by the way the Iranian people are ready to rebel and +overthrow this regime, and if we would +squeeze them economically that could happen. +SEGAL: If in fact all this is true, and let's assume there is no reason not to believe that it's true, that in fact +Israel and the United States continue the same cooperation level they have had in the past, and we +know that when it comes to serious matters, especially military matters, it's been great cooperation, Why +wouldn't the President of the U.S. want that perception to be out there? Why would he want to alienate so many +who care about Israel. +SCHUMER: Nachum this is the question I talked to Rahm Emanuel about, and the President about this week. I +told the President, I told Rahm Emanuel and others in the administration that I thought the policy they took +to try to bring about negotiations is counter-productive, because when you give the Palestinians hope that the +United States will do its negotiating for them, they are not going to sit down and talk. Palestinians don't really +believe in a state of Israel, +they, unlike a majority of Israelis, who have come to the conclusion that they can live with a 2-state solution to +be determined by the parties, the majority of Palestinians are still very reluctant, and they need to be pushed to +get there. If the U.S. says +certain things and takes certain stands the Palestinians say, ""Why should we negotiate?"" So that's bad and that +should change and we are working on changing it. But the other two are very good, according to both the Israeli +government and the Israeli military +and the U.S. government. But we should make that known, why don't they? I asked them to do just that, I said +we should make it public because it will, at least, give people, who are supportive of Israel, Jew and non-Jew +alike, a little bit of solace. +SEGAL: That I agree with. But then you see the Gates memo which has become its own sort of entity out there, +and you wonder about what type of support the United States could give Israel if, god-forbid, they were +attacked by Iran. +SCHUMER: I do think that this administration, like previous ones, realizes a nuclear Iran is devastating and is a +very bad thing. By the way, not just for Israel but for the whole Middle-East and for world peace and +I think they're working strenuously to avoid it. They are having more success in this area than the previous +administration, they are trying to get some of the Europeans, and even the Russians and Chinese to impose +sanctions, but we are moving in the Senate +and the house to achieve any unilateral action that the U.S. can take. If we tell any major oil company that if +they sell gasoline to Iran, directly or indirectly, they can't sell any oil product in the U.S., then they will stop +selling gasoline to Iran and +the Iranian economy will have real problems. This will, at the very minimum, divert the leadership from their +nuclear strategy and could bring down the regime. This is important and good. Let's talk about the bad. Let's +talk about, what I'm sure your listeners +are most aggravated about, is what's happened in the last while in Israel. Let me say this: things were going +pretty well, until a couple of months ago, for this reason—the Netanyahu administration, with money from the +U.S., had gotten the PA on the west bank +to have their own police force and have them come down on the terrorists , for their own self interest not to +protect the Jewish people. It has worked, not only are there fewer killings of Jews on the Israeli side of the +fence, but there are many fewer in +the other side because there is a Palestinian police force and they have put those terrorists in line. As a result +Israel has been able to take down 27 of the checkpoints and as a result of that there is some economic growth in +the west bank. Its growing at +7-8%, Netanyahu brags that -- when he came here I spent a lot of time with him – That there are multiplex +theatres in places like Ramallah and Janeen. At the same time that is happening, there is prosperity with the +more moderate Palestinian Authority in the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768665 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768665 Date: 08/31/2015 +west bank, and Hamas in Gaza is being squeezed and people there are doing very badly. Not only because Israel +has blocked off the border and not let anything into Gaza, and I support Israel in doing that, and it may be tough +on the Palestinian people, but +when they vote for Hamas they are going to have to suffer the consequences. But also because Egypt is +preventing all the tunnels from going under the Gaza-Egyptian border, not so much because they want to help +Israel but they don't want the terrorists infiltrating +from Gaza into Egypt. So the Palestinians were beginning to see those who talked about living in coexistence +with Israel, and not terrorism, and not wiping it out, such as the PA on the west bank would do better, and those +who talked about destroying Israel, +and shooting rockets into it were doing horrible. +SEGAL. I don't think the checkpoint and open highway point is one we are going to agree on Senator. But I +want to move to another hot point which is Syria, it seems, and I'm not sure how many people would consider +these confirmed reports or not and I'm sure you know more about this than I do, but Syria is making sure that +Hezbollah, north of Israel is being armed with SCUD missiles at this point. And you know that Washington is +making efforts to try and strengthen the +diplomatic relationship with Syria. Do you think that's outrageous? +SCHUMER: I do, and think that's stopped. They are working very hard to put pressure on the Syrians both +diplomatic and then maybe economic, to stop this and it's intolerable and that has to change. Let me just finish +this dialogue about Israel for a minute. All we have to do is leave things alone, and you might get the +Palestinians more willing to sit down and actually discuss peace because they would see the contrast. When +Biden was in Israel and there was this kerfuffle +over settlements which is in Israeli Jerusalem 5 minutes from downtown and should never have been an issue to +begin with, but they probably shouldn't have made the announcement when Biden was there. But Israel +apologized and when Biden left, and Biden is +the best friend of Israel in the administration everything was fine. But then what happened is the next day +Hillary Clinton called up Netanyahu and talked very tough to him, and worse they made it pubic through this +spokesperson, a guy named Crowley. +And Crowley said something I have never heard before, which is, the relationship of Israel and the United +States depends on the pace of the negotiations. That is terrible. That is the dagger because the relationship is +much deeper than the disagreements +on negotiations, and most Americans—Democrat, Republican, Jew, non-Jew--would feel that. So I called up +Rahm Emanuel and I called up the White House and I said, ""If you don't retract that statement you are going to +hear me publicly blast you on this."" +Of course they did retract it. Now what's happened, and many of us are pushing back, some of the Jewish +members will be meeting with the President next week or the week after, and we are saying that this has to stop. +You have to have, in terms of the negotiations, +you have to show Israel that it's not going to be forced to do things it doesn't want to do and can't do. At the +same time you have to show the Palestinians that they are not going to get their way by just sitting back and not +giving in, and not recognizing +that there is a state of Israel. And right now there is a battle going on inside the administration, one side agrees +with us, one side doesn't, and we're pushing hard to make sure the right side wins and if not we'll have to take +it to the next step. +SEGAL: You know Senator Schumer, the perception among New York state residents, and I'm one of them as +you know, is there likely is no one closer in the Senate to the President than you. +SCHUMER: That's not quite true, but I have an ear and frankly I spent time on the phone just yesterday talking +to him about this, and telling him that I didn't quite understand the United States policy, because even +if the goal is to bring about talks of peace, it was counter-productive because it's encouraging the Palestinians +not to sit down. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768665 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768665 Date: 08/31/2015 +SEGAL: More than % of the Senate, including a lot of democrats, signed the letter to Sec. of State Clinton +rebuking the administration for these confrontational stances toward Israel. Were you surprised that names +like Kerry, Dodd, Durbin, Leahy and Reid were not included in that letter? +SCHUMER: well I think Senator Reid signed the letter, some didn't sign but the majority of both parties signed. +And we'll have other letters and other meetings to keep pushing that. I think you can say there are a +handful of people who are not sympathetic to Israel in the Senate of each party, but 90% of the Senate is +overwhelmingly in support of Israel. And one of my jobs, as you know is to rally those forces to do strong poll +work for this year (couldn't hear this +part perfectly). Believe me I think the policy has to change, and I'm working hard to make it change and I think +it will. Every administration at the beginning has this view even Ronald Reagan, the best friend Israel ever had, +do you remember his first 2 years? +When George Schultz wanted to sell AWACs to Saudi Arabia? Every administration has this idea to talk tough +to Israel and make nice to the Arabs and the Palestinians and that's the way to bring about peace. It's counter- +productive, it's actually the +opposite. The only way the Palestinians will sit down and talk is if they know Israel and the United States are as +close as could be. And each administration learns it. Schultz had to learn it and Reagan had to learn it. Clinton +did it in the early years and +later became a very good friend of Israel. George Bush the first did it and never got over it, (SEGAL laughing +muffles SCHUMER). We are at a crucial moment here and I am hopeful that administration will see the right +way to go. I am working on it. I don't believe +that have made any definitive decision, and as I have said on both Iran on Syria there is close cooperation, you +can check with your Israeli contacts Nachum and they will confirm that. So we just have to get this third part +right and I'm working hard to do +it and I'm optimistic that that can happen. +SEGAL: Good to hear that. Finally Senator, just for our own curiosity, just like the most recent justice +appointed to the Supreme Court, will the next one also be a New Yorker? +SCHUMER: I don't know. I would like it to be, I recommended the first one. I have 3 criteria for Supreme +Court Justices: they should be legally excellent, they should be moderate as is typical of my politics I don't +want too far right or far left, and diversity, which means different ethnic groups and everything else. Luckily in +terms of Jewish people we have good representation in terns of the Supreme Court. That will continue. One +thing I want to assure your listeners +Nachum, my name as you know comes from a Hebrew word. It comes from the word shomer, which mean +guardian. My ancestors were guardians of the ghetto wall in Chortkov and I believe Hashem, actually, gave me +name as one of my roles that is very important in the +United States Senate to be a shomer to be A. a shomer for Israel and I will continue to be that with every bone +in my body for of the other is against me. +SEGAL: can I ask you one other favor Senator? To be a shomer against the value-add tax? +SCHUMER: I am against it. I'm not sure it's needed but I will be a shomer against it. +SEGAL: always a pleasure Senator, thanks so much for joining us. +SCHUMER: Nachum, nice to see you and I hope you readership continues to go in peace and prosperity. +Posted by Ben Smith 08:24 PM +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768665 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4667,C05768668,HIKERS,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-04-23T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0075/DOC_0C05768668/C05768668.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Hikers,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Friday, April 23, 2010 5:13 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768668,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Can we put out the below? +Draft S Statement on the Hikers +I was pleased to learn of the consular visit yesterday by the Swiss Ambassador in Iran to the three detained American +hikers, Shane Bauer, Josh Fattal, and Sarah Shourd.

The +official highlighted the importance of raising Mideast nuclear-free zone issues. +The designation of the region as a zone free of weapons of mass destruction was a nonbinding agreement that emerged +from a 1995 U.N. review of the Non-Proliferation Treaty, a 1970 pact to limit the spread of nuclear weapons.

She said the U.S. has also discussed the zone with the Arab League and other members +of the Nonaligned Movement. +The diplomacy could raise new tensions between President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin +Netanyahu if Washington is seen backing away from its commitment to Israel. Israel has voiced concerns that the U.N. +conference could turn into an international forum to corner Israel. Mr. Netanyahu backed out of a nuclear-security +conference in Washington in March due to such concerns. +An Israeli official said Friday that his government supports a Middle East freeze of WMD and nuclear weapons, but that +""it should be the culmination of a process that begins with bilateral and individual peace agreements between all the +countries in the region."" +The U.S. and Israel have been locked in a monthslong spat over Mr. Obama's calls for a complete freeze in building new +Jewish housing in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Mrs. Clinton said Friday that the Mideast peace process will get on track +next week, though not the U.S.-brokered direct talks involving Israeli and Palestinians that the Obama administration +wants to see. +Egypt's latest proposal calls for Israel's disarmament ""as soon as possible."" It also called for Israel's nuclear program to be +placed under the auspices of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N.'s atomic watchdog. That proposal won't +be accepted, U.S. officials said. +The Egyptian working paper demands NPT signatory states release ""all information available to them on the nature and +scope of Israeli nuclear facilities and activities, including information pertaining to previous nuclear transfers to Israel."" +U.S. officials indicated no such demands could be made on Israel. +Arms-control analysts familiar with the talks say the U.S. is likely to propose creating a U.N. envoy given the task of +calling a conference of Middle East nations to press forward on the nuclear weapon-free zone. +""They are desperate to buy off Egyptian objections,"" said Henry Sokolski, executive director of the Non-Proliferation +Education Center and a critic of the Obama administration's arms-control approach. +Daryl Kimball, executive director of the Arms Control Association, an advocacy group, said the U.S. acceptance of a +special envoy is a significant shift.

Mr. Netanyahu backed out of a nuclear-security +conference in Washington in March due to such concerns. +An Israeli official said Friday that his government supports a Middle East freeze of WMD and nuclear weapons, but that +""it should be the culmination of a process that begins with bilateral and individual peace agreements between all the +countries in the region."" +The U.S. and Israel have been locked in a monthslong spat over Mr. Obama's calls for a complete freeze in building new +Jewish housing in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. U.S. officials have grown increasingly confident in recent days that +ties between the U.S. and Israel have stabilized. Mrs. Clinton said Friday that the Mideast peace process will get on track +next week, though not the U.S.-brokered direct talks involving Israeli and Palestinians that the Obama administration +wants to see. +Egypt's latest proposal calls for Israel's disarmament ""as soon as possible."" It also called for Israel's nuclear program to be +placed under the auspices of the International Atomic Energy Agency, the U.N.'s atomic watchdog. That proposal won't +be accepted, U.S. officials said. +The Egyptian working paper demands NPT signatory states release ""all information available to them on the nature and +scope of Israeli nuclear facilities and activities, including information pertaining to previous nuclear transfers to Israel."" +U.S. officials indicated no such demands could be made on Israel. +Arms-control analysts familiar with the talks say the U.S. is likely to propose creating a U.N. envoy given the task of +calling a conference of Middle East nations to press forward on the nuclear weapon-free zone. +""They are desperate to buy off Egyptian objections,"" said Henry Sokolski, executive director of the Non-Proliferation +Education Center and a critic of the Obama administration's arms-control approach. +Daryl Kimball, executive director of the Arms Control Association, an advocacy group, said the U.S. acceptance of a +special envoy is a significant shift. A U.S. official refused to say whether the envoy proposal, first floated by Russia, was +part of the U.S. offer. +The last NPT conference in 2005 ended in collapse. But U.S. officials said they have been laying the groundwork for this +conference for nearly a year. +The White House wants rules to ensure that a country that withdraws from the treaty doesn't escape inspections and +sanctions. They also want more power for U.N. inspectors and more backing for multinational facilities that could help +nations develop peaceful nuclear power. +Write to Jonathan Weisman at jonathan.weisman@wsj.com, Jay Solomon at jay.solomon@wsj.com and Joe Lauria at +newseditor@wsj.com +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768675 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4672,C05768677,BOSINA,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-04-24T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0075/DOC_0C05768677/C05768677.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Bosnia,H; Oscar Flores,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Saturday, April 24, 2010 1:12 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768677,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"This call will be after indonesia.

Op-Ed Contributor +Germany in Need of a Dream +By JOHN KORNBLUM +Has Germany abandoned Europe? Do Angela Merkel's tough conditions for aid to Greece mean that Germany is no +longer the motor of European integration? Has Frau Merkel in fact morphed from the Miss Europa of 2007 to the +Fraulein Germania of 2010, as Germany's own former foreign minister Joschka Fischer has suggested? +As a former American ambassador who has lived and worked the better part of four decades around Germany, my +Blackberry often glows red hot with messages from persons asking these questions. My response is always the same: +Germany has changed very little, but Europe and the world have changed a lot. Therein lies the dilemma. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768699 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768699 Date: 08/31/2015 +Germany has worked hard to dig its way out of the disaster of 1945, but trauma remains a defining issue for German +society. Sixty five years later, Germany is still focused on the three essentials of its recovery: stability, respectability and +peace. Keep this triangle in mind and lots of things quickly come into focus. +From the first days of the Federal Republic, Germany's leaders emphasized the importance of defining interests solely +within a common European and Atlantic vocation. But they also understood that renouncing national ambitions did not +remove the responsibility to pursue specific German goals through the common institutions. +Many important postwar accomplishments were conceived and pushed by Germany, sometimes over the opposition of +others — including the United States. Ostpolitik was controversial for years, as was NATO enlargement. Germany +pushed them with determination. +Helmut Kohl did not consult before promulgating his 10 points on reunification. He agreed to French desires for a +common currency, but only if it could be a mirror of the Deutsche mark, for decades the European monetary standard. +The euro stability pact, now the object of so much controversy with Greece, was the result. After 1990, the E.U.'s +eastward expansion was Germany's way of firming up its Eastern flank. +Slowly and without fanfare, Germany has been remaking the European Union in its image. At each step of the way, +Germany made its wishes more palatable by paying more than its share. Part of today's misunderstanding is caused by +Germany's success in using its contributions to build an image of selflessness. Germany has been as single-minded in +pursuit of its goals as Charles de Gaulle ever was for his, but it almost always left leadership to others. +A new consciousness grew after the costs of reunification began to mount. ""Europe"" in the institutional sense has +become increasingly unpopular. German courts have begun to define German European issues in the context of the +German Constitution rather than on the basis of E.U. law. At least some of Ms. Merkel's refusal to allow immediate +assistance to Greece was based on her fears that it would fan anti-E.U. sentiment at home. Are these the first signs of a +German Tea Party? +Here we find the source of most of the hand wringing about Germany's role as the ""motor of Europe."" Ms. Merkel's +unwillingness to sweeten the financial pot echoed throughout Brussels. To many, it signified the decline of German +willingness to ""salute the French flag three times before raising the German flag,"" as Konrad Adenauer used to put it. +Germans are not alone in objecting to throwing more money into the E.U. pot, but they happen to be the only ones who +can do something about it. Many fear that without German complaisance, the E.U. will stutter to a stop. But such self- +denial could never offer a viable foundation for a new Europe. Neither could the inefficiency and even corruption that +characterizes many E.U. programs. +Most maddening for most thinking Europeans is the knowledge that the Germans are right. But to them, the question is +whether Germany is remaking the E.U. in a fashion palatable to the majority of other member states. They are not so +sure that its focus on stability and accountability is the right way to help such a diverse collection of peoples adjust to a +globalized world. +And so when Angela Merkel raps Greek knuckles, she is sending a message most Europeans don't want to hear. Not that +Germany is dangerous; even worse, that it is unrelenting. The Neue Ziiricher Zeitung probably spoke for many others +when it once accused Germany of wanting Europe to become a large Switzerland. +The growing gap between Germany's aspirations and the perceived needs of other members of the E.U. is beginning to +burden both sides. Most Europeans are simply not ready to live up to German standards. Without a more flexible sense +of common purpose, the project to build a democratic Europe could stop dead in the water. But as Germans will +themselves often tell you: They have forgotten how to dream. +Younger Germans feel this lack of inspiration as well. Dreams were what 200,000 of them were waiting to hear when +they rallied to hear Barack Obama in Berlin two summers ago. They wanted more than to ""Dare to Hope,"" which is the +characteristically timid German translation of the title of the president's best seller. And they are still waiting. America +seems busy elsewhere. +The main conclusion I draw from the debate about Germany is that it is not about Germany at all. The task of building a +democratic Europe is far from complete. Most of the foundations have been laid and now the residents are starting to +haggle over the design. Weaving today's 27 states into a true trans-Atlantic partnership is a task that is too big for +Germany or even Europe to accomplish alone. They desperately need some skilled architectural assistance. +Uniting Europe and North America is the most audacious project ever conceived. If it works, the United States will be +joined by nearly 500 million Europeans to form a democratic space, within which modern democratic values will harness +more energy than in any single nation on earth. Democracy's future as the operating system for a globalized world will +be assured. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768699 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768699 Date: 08/31/2015 +European fecklessness seems to worry Washington officials these days. But if Germany has forgotten how to dream and +the United States is too busy to try, we will both be guilty of perpetuating the aimlessness we so criticize.

This is more than a further unfolding of the economic crisis, +threatening recovery; fissures within the transatlantic relationship will now be under intensifying strain. More +than statements from Treasury should be forthcoming in the days ahead. This is about the future of the +transatlantic relationship. Reassuring words about our enduring commitment will matter. +I've been having conversations with John Kornblum and those discussions prompted this email from him a +couple of days ago, before the latest Greek event: +-- the economic crisis is starting to have a negative effect on dynamics among EU +members. Tensions over deficits, Greece etc are uncovering major gaps among the major players. +-- Germany has emerged stronger than others. German voters believe (correctly) that they have +sacrificed to maintain stability and are increasingly angry over signs of obvious mismanagement by +Greece and others. The strains of Afghanistan are being felt by everyone and while the President is +very popular in Europe, EU leaders miss the regular stroking by the US which for decades has been +an essential aspect of their self-confidence. +- Germany's harsh reaction to Greece has shaken everyone, perhaps the French most of all. They +now see that Germany has been remaking the EU behind the scenes without their noticing +it. Commonality on major issues is declining. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768806 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768806 Date: 08/31/2015 +-- Continuation of this trend would be very damaging to US interests. Global markets could be +weakened significantly if the budgetary crises continue. Cooperation on issues such as Afghanistan +and Iran could be undermined. In the worst case, the President could be confronted with a major +crisis of confidence among members of the EU. He would be blamed for inattention to the negative +trends. +-- Things are not in crisis, but the trends are worrying enough to warrant a senior effort to focus the +dialogue, especially with the Germans and the French. Assuming the Conservatives win in the UK, +there will be a need to guide them successfully into office. Others such as the Poles and the Turks +cannot be ignored. +-- In other words, we cannot treat our partnership with Europe as just another point on a multipolar +map. Maintaining consensus within Europe and between the US and Europe is essential to +maintaining a foundation for our global efforts. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768806 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4742,C05768809,"DEPUTY SECRETARY LEW'S SCHEDULE, MONDAY, MARCH 15, 2010",H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-03-12T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0069/DOC_0C05768809/C05768809.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,"FW: Deputy Secretary Lew's Schedule, Monday, March 15, 2010",,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Friday, March 12, 2010 9:42 PM",F-2014-20439,C05768809,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Remind me to discuss when we talk,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768809 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE +IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Friday, March 12, 2010 9:42 PM +To: +Subject: FW: Deputy Secretary Lew's Schedule, Monday, March 15, 2010 +Remind me to discuss when we talk +From: Dubose, Mary L +Sent: Friday, March 12, 2010 5:37 PM +To: D(L)_LewDa lySched u le +Subject: Deputy Secretary Lew's Schedule, Monday, March 15, 2010 +Deputy Secretary Lew will be out of the office on Monday, March 15.

This is more +than a further unfolding of the economic crisis, threatening recovery; fissures within the +transatlantic relationship will now be under intensifying strain. More than statements from +Treasury should be forthcoming in the days ahead. This is about the future of the transatlantic +relationship. Reassuring words about our enduring commitment will matter. +I've been having conversations with John Komblum and those discussions prompted this email +from him a couple of days ago, before the latest Greek event: +-- the economic crisis is starting to have a negative effect on dynamics among EU +members. Tensions over deficits, Greece etc are uncovering major gaps among the +major players. +-- Germany has emerged stronger than others. German voters believe (correctly) that +they have sacrificed to maintain stability and are increasingly angry over signs of +obvious mismanagement by Greece and others. The strains of Afghanistan are being +felt by everyone and while the President is very popular in Europe, EU leaders miss the +regular stroking by the US which for decades has been an essential aspect of their self- +confidence. +- Germany's harsh reaction to Greece has shaken everyone, perhaps the French most +of all. They now see that Germany has been remaking the EU behind the scenes +without their noticing it. Commonality on major issues is declining. +-- Continuation of this trend would be very damaging to US interests. Global markets +could be weakened significantly if the budgetary crises continue.

In the worst case, the President +could be confronted with a major crisis of confidence among members of the EU. He +would be blamed for inattention to the negative trends. +—Things are not in crisis, but the trends are worrying enough to warrant a senior effort +to focus the dialogue, especially with the Germans and the French. Assuming the +Conservatives win in the UK, there will be a need to guide them successfully into office. +Others such as the Poles and the Turks cannot be ignored. +-- In other words, we cannot treat our partnership with Europe as just another point on +a multipolar map. Maintaining consensus within Europe and between the US and +Europe is essential to maintaining a foundation for our global efforts. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768823 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4753,C05768826,MINI SCHEDULE 4/28/10 WEDNESDAY,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C",116,2010-04-28T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0076/DOC_0C05768826/C05768826.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Mini Schedule 4/28/10 Wednesday,,"Jiloty, Lauren C ","Abedin, Huma","Wednesday, April 28, 2010 8:43 AM",F-2014-20439,C05768826,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"8:25 am ARRIVE State Department +8:25 am PRESIDENTIAL DAILY BRIEFING +8:30 am Secretary's Office +8:30 am DAILY SMALL STAFF MEETING +8:45 am Secretary's Office +8:45 am DAILY SENIOR STAFF MEETING +9:00 am Secretary's Conference Room +9:00 am BREAKFAST w/ WOMEN ENTREPRENEURSHIP SUMMIT +9:15 am ATTENDEES Benjamin Franldin Room, 8"" Floor +9:30 am BIWEEKLY MEETING w/MANAGEMENT TEAM +10:00 am Deputy Secretary's Conference Room +10:00 am WEEKLY MEETING w/UNDER SECRETARIES +10:45 am Secretary's Conference Room +11:15am PHONE CALL w/OAS SECRETARY GENERAL JOSE MIGUEL INSULZA +11:30am Secretary's Office +11:30 am OFFICE TIME +2:00 pm Secretary's Office +2:00 pm BILATERAL w/TUNISIAN FM KAMEL MORJANE +2:30 pm Secretary's Conference Room *Camera spray in Treaty Room preceding. +2:50 pm REMARKS TO THE ANNUAL IRAN WATCHERS CONFERENCE +3:00 pm Delegates Lounge, First Floor *Official photo. +3:15 pm MEETING w/FAMILIES OF IRAN HIKERS +3:30 pm Secretary's Office *Official photo. +4:00 pm BILAT w/HONDURAN SEC' Y OF STATE FOR FOREIGN AFFAIRS MARIO +4:30 pm CANAHUATI Secy's Conf.

I continue to +believe that I can - and would very much like to - be able to contribute meaningfully to your work and the mission of the +Department. Issues having to do with the status of children world-wide, health liaison to US AID and a variety of issues +within the realm of disaster response and preparedness. +- I just today participated in and spoke at a major conference in DC on nuclear terrorism. Most of the speakers and +participants were federal officials, including WH staff. One of the key points I made was the extraordinary disconnect +between administration concerns with respect to the possibility of IND/nuclear terrorism and the degree to which this is +essentially ignored in state and local disaster planning, including in the principal target cities. My discussions with +officials in Great Britain and a couple of other countries reveal a similar inability to deal with nuclear preparedness. For +many of these folks, here and abroad, images of apocalyptic destruction - as was the actual threat during the nuclear +arms race with the Soviets - are just paralyzing. +However, a terrorist IND, is not an all-out nuclear war. Current, scientific modeling suggests that minimal planning for +an IND could save hundreds of thousands of lives and create a much high level of resiliency than we currently have +I believe that an international consortium of disaster response and recovery planning officials should be considered as a +means of increasing attention and resources focused on nuclear - and CBRNE in general - terrorism readiness. We have +much that could be learned from one another in terms of advancing this work. My center at Columbia recently held a +very successful and productive conference called ""Day 3"" +, focused on the regional conditions and projections 72 hours post IND detonation. +- Natural disasters also remain a major challenge and potentially increasingly so over the years to come. I feel that +there is much to be gained by upgrading the level and quality of our international collaboration around disaster +response planning - and particularly major disaster recovery, still one of the great unsolved challenges world-wide. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768846 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768846 Date: 08/31/2015 +- As a member of the federally appointed National Commission on Children and Disasters, we just completed a field +hearing of state and federal officials on the management of children brought from Haiti to Florida for medical care and +humanitarian rescue. Some were American nationals, others not. But the reports from people involved in the process +were overwhelmingly concerned about lack of coordination, dangerously inadequate information accompanying many +of the kids who came over and lots of less than positive feedback about operations within Haiti. I believe that I could +help in the organization of emergency response, overseeing some of the key functions in managing international +disasters which end up involving the U.S. +- I had a chance and very interesting meeting with Ban Ki-Moon 2 weeks ago. I mentioned an idea I have been thinking +about having to do with another world children's summit.

I continue to +believe that I can - and would very much like to - be able to contribute meaningfully to your work and the mission of the +Department. Issues having to do with the status of children world-wide, health liaison to US AID and a variety of issues +within the realm of disaster response and preparedness. +- I just today participated in and spoke at a major conference in DC on nuclear terrorism. Most of the speakers and +participants were federal officials, including WH staff. One of the key points I made was the extraordinary disconnect +between administration concerns with respect to the possibility of IND/nuclear terrorism and the degree to which this is +essentially ignored in state and local disaster planning, including in the principal target cities. My discussions with +officials in Great Britain and a couple of other countries reveal a similar inability to deal with nuclear preparedness. For +many of these folks, here and abroad, images of apocalyptic destruction - as was the actual threat during the nuclear +arms race with the Soviets - are just paralyzing. +However, a terrorist IND, is not an all-out nuclear war. Current, scientific modeling suggests that minimal planning for +an IND could save hundreds of thousands of lives and create a much high level of resiliency than we currently have +I believe that an international consortium of disaster response and recovery planning officials should be considered as a +means of increasing attention and resources focused on nuclear - and CBRNE in general - terrorism readiness. We have +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768853 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768853 Date: 08/31/2015 +much that could be learned from one another in terms of advancing this work. My center at Columbia recently held a +very successful and productive conference called ""Day 3"" +, focused on the regional conditions and projections 72 hours post IND detonation. +- Natural disasters also remain a major challenge and potentially increasingly so over the years to come. I feel that +there is much to be gained by upgrading the level and quality of our international collaboration around disaster +response planning - and particularly major disaster recovery, still one of the great unsolved challenges world-wide. +-As a member of the federally appointed National Commission on Children and Disasters, we just completed a field +hearing of state and federal officials on the management of children brought from Haiti to Florida for medical care and +humanitarian rescue. Some were American nationals, others not. But the reports from people involved in the process +were overwhelmingly concerned about lack of coordination, dangerously inadequate information accompanying many +of the kids who came over and lots of less than positive feedback about operations within Haiti. I believe that I could +help in the organization of emergency response, overseeing some of the key functions in managing international +disasters which end up involving the U.S. +-I had a chance and very interesting meeting with Ban Ki-Moon 2 weeks ago. I mentioned an idea I have been thinking +about having to do with another world children's summit. The last one was in 1990, held at the U.N. and involving +about 150 countries, including heads of state from about 45 - 50 nations.

Sid +htto://www. haaretz.com/hasers/spagesil 158992. html +Aluf Benn / Netanyahu leaves U.S. disgraced, isolated and weaker +By Ake Berm +Details emerging from Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to Washington remain incomplete, but the conclusion may nonetheless +be drawn that the prime minister erred in choosing to fly to the United States this week. The visit - touted as a fence- +mending effort, a bid to strengthen the tenuous ties between Netanyahu and U.S. President Barack Obama - only +highlighted the deep rift between the American and Israeli administrations. +The prime minister leaves America disgraced, isolated, and altogether weaker than when he came. +Instead of setting the diplomatic agenda, Netanyahu surrendered control over it. Instead of leaving the Palestinian issue +aside and focusing on Iran, as he would like, Netanyahu now finds himself fighting for the legitimacy of Israeli control over +East Jerusalem. +Advertisement +The most sensitive and insoluble core issues - those which when raised a decade ago led to the dissolution of +the peace process and explosion of the second intifada - are now being served as a mere appetizer. +At the start of his visit, Netanyahu was tempted to bask in the warm welcome he received at the AIPAC conference, at +which he gave his emotional address on Jerusalem. +Taking a page from Menachem Begin, he spoke not on behalf of the State of Israel, but in the name of the Jewish people +itself and its millennia of history. +His speech was not radical rightist rhetoric. Reading between the lines, one could spot a certain willingness to relinquish +West Bank settlements as long as Israel maintains a security buffer in the Jordan Valley. +But at the White House, the prime minister's speech to thousands of pro-Israel activists and hundreds of cheering +congressmen looked like an obvious attempt to raise political capital against the American president. +Knowing Netanyahu would be reenergized by his speech at the lobby, Obama and his staff set him a honey trap. Over the +weekend they sought to quell the row that flared up during U.S. Vice President Joe Biden's trip here two weeks ago, and +U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton described Netanyahu's response to the ultimatums Washington presented to him +as ""useful."" +Special envoy George Mitchell made a televised visit to the prime minister's bureau Sunday to invite Netanyahu to the +White House. Washington, it seemed, was trying to make nice. +Far from it. Just when Netanyahu thought he had resolved the crisis by apologizing to Biden, Clinton called him up for a +dressing down. +This time as well, Netanyahu almost believed the crisis had passed, that he had survived by offering partial. noncommittal +answers to the Americans' questions.

Sid +htto://www. haaretz.com/hasers/spagesil 158992. html +Aluf Benn / Netanyahu leaves U.S. disgraced, isolated and weaker +By Ake Berm +Details emerging from Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to Washington remain incomplete, but the conclusion may nonetheless +be drawn that the prime minister erred in choosing to fly to the United States this week. The visit - touted as a fence- +mending effort, a bid to strengthen the tenuous ties between Netanyahu and U.S. President Barack Obama - only +highlighted the deep rift between the American and Israeli administrations. +The prime minister leaves America disgraced, isolated, and altogether weaker than when he came. +Instead of setting the diplomatic agenda, Netanyahu surrendered control over it. Instead of leaving the Palestinian issue +aside and focusing on Iran, as he would like, Netanyahu now finds himself fighting for the legitimacy of Israeli control over +East Jerusalem. +Advertisement +The most sensitive and insoluble core issues - those which when raised a decade ago led to the dissolution of +the peace process and explosion of the second intifada - are now being served as a mere appetizer. +At the start of his visit, Netanyahu was tempted to bask in the warm welcome he received at the AIPAC conference, at +which he gave his emotional address on Jerusalem. +Taking a page from Menachem Begin, he spoke not on behalf of the State of Israel, but in the name of the Jewish people +itself and its millennia of history. +His speech was not radical rightist rhetoric. Reading between the lines, one could spot a certain willingness to relinquish +West Bank settlements as long as Israel maintains a security buffer in the Jordan Valley. +But at the White House, the prime minister's speech to thousands of pro-Israel activists and hundreds of cheering +congressmen looked like an obvious attempt to raise political capital against the American president. +Knowing Netanyahu would be reenergized by his speech at the lobby, Obama and his staff set him a honey trap. Over the +weekend they sought to quell the row that flared up during U.S. Vice President Joe Biden's trip here two weeks ago, and +U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton described Netanyahu's response to the ultimatums Washington presented to him +as ""useful."" +Special envoy George Mitchell made a televised visit to the prime minister's bureau Sunday to invite Netanyahu to the +White House. Washington, it seemed, was trying to make nice. +Far from it. Just when Netanyahu thought he had resolved the crisis by apologizing to Biden, Clinton called him up for a +dressing down. +This time as well, Netanyahu almost believed the crisis had passed, that he had survived by offering partial. noncommittal +answers to the Americans' questions. Shortly before meeting with Obama, Netanyahu even warned the Palestinians that +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768882 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768882 Date: 08/31/2015 +should they continue to demand a freeze on construction, he would postpone peace talks by a year. +His arrogant tone underscored the fact that Netanyahu believed that on the strength of his AIPAC speech, he could call +the next few steps of the diplomatic dance. +But then calamity struck.

""I've said, the first phase of reconstruction is +a decade. The real test is a generation and hopefully with partnerships both inside and outside of Haiti, it +will continue for that time period."" +The plan includes creation of an Interim Haitian Recovery Commission that will -- for the first time -- seek +to guide how and where aid is spent by giving both Haitians and foreigners a vote in reconstruction priorities +and projects over the next 18 months. Haiti's president will retain veto power and there's a starring role for +former U.S. President Bill Clinton if he wants it. +The blueprint is certain to come under plenty of scrutiny in Haiti, a country plagued and in-fighting among +donors. Over the years, billions of dollars in aid -- often delivered after hurricanes or political coups -- has +failed to produce any signs of lasting progress in a country that remains the poorest in the Western +Hemisphere. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768926 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768926 Date: 08/31/2015 +Clinton, who is to visit Haiti Monday along with former President George W. Bush, will be asked to help +lead Haiti's reconstruction planning over the short-term as co-chair -- along with the Haitian prime minister - +- of the commission, several sources confirmed to The Miami Herald. +Clinton, who is already in charge of the international relief effort for the United Nations, has not said +whether he'll accept the job as Haiti's reconstruction czar but he has championed the strategy, saying the goal +is to provide to Haitians the success that has long eluded them.He and Bush are visiting Haiti, where more +than 200,000 people were killed in the quake, in their roles as co-chairs of the Clinton Bush Haiti Fund. The +private U.S. fundraising effort, initiated by President Obama, has raised more than $36 million. +The commission's goal will be to plan and coordinate reconstruction priorities and projects over the next 18 +months with recommendations from a 20-member board made up of Haitians and foreign donors. +Eventually, the commission would morph into the Haiti Development Authority (HDA), a central planning +agency tasked with approving all reconstruction projects in Haiti regardless of which country or aid agency +is funding it. +The authority's executive director, like that of the commission, likely would be a well-respected Haitian. +""Haitians must have the chance to lead the rebuilding of Haiti,"" said U.S. Secretary of State Hillary +Clinton's chief of staff Cheryl Mills, a key person in talks. ""Development authorities have helped other +countries that have large donor communities to accomplish their visions -- we want no less for Haiti and its +citizens."" +The original plan, first reported by The Herald last month, was modeled on the successful reconstruction +authority created in Indonesia after the 2004 tsunami and presented by Mills to Preval and top Haitian +officials last month. Other countries and multilateral institutions also presented plans to the Haitian +government. +The U.S. plan has since undergone several revisions at Preyal's urging. +Among them: offering a voting seat on the commission's board to each donor pledging $100 million or more +over the next two years and donors who provide $200 million in debt cancellation. As a result, Venezuela is +among the likely donors to help review and approve projects. Initially 16 members, the board was expanded +to give a say-so to Haiti's private sector and labor unions and the 15-nation sub-regional Caribbean +Community (CARCIOM). The plan also establishes a Multi-donor Trust Fund, administered by the World +Bank, to possibly pool donors' dollars for reconstruction projects. +For decades, Haiti has been plagued by a lack of planning and coordination among donor nations and aid +groups as they battled among each other in the poverty-stricken country. +Using the Indonesian model employed in Indonesia after the Asian tsunami, plan supporters say the +reconstruction commission offers Haiti the best chance to lead its own redevelopment and to change the way +donors do business, ending an era where aid groups spend budgets larger than Haitian ministries without any +accountability to the Haitian people. But that can only be achieved in Haiti, say supporters, if donors and +their projects are coordinated, and in line with Haiti's vision and post-disaster reconstruction needs, which +will be presented at the March 31 New York conference and remains a work in progress while the +government seeks input from various Haitian groups, including the Diaspora. Also Haiti's parliament must +vote on the creation of the Interim Haitian Recovery Commission. +Still, the idea of putting Haiti's reconstruction into the hands of one central authority -- or having some +donors channel their money into a trust fund -- is not without detractors. Some argue that the authority could +render government ministries obsolete because projects would now bypass them, while others point out that +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768926 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05768926 Date: 08/31/2015 +a similar World Bank fund in the Sudan has been troubled by rules leaving schools and healthcare facilities +undone as hundreds of millions of dollars remain unspent. +Meanwhile, Haitian government officials worry that donors may not want to change the way they do +business with Haiti, rendering the reconstruction a failure before it gets started. +""The creation of the [trust fund] or the [Haiti Development Authority] are improvements to changing the +paradigm if and only if everybody plays the game -- putting most of their money in the fund -- and access to +the funds is more flexible than the usual process of disbursing from the international donors,"" Haitian Prime +Minister Jean-Max Bellerive told The Herald. +In the past, donors have pledged hundreds of millions of dollars to assist Haiti but have fallen short in +disbursing those dollars -- or at times spent the money on projects without consulting the Haitian +government about whether the projects were needed. +Last week, as representatives of the Haitian government and others met to prepare for the New York +conference, Bellerive warned that ""New York could be a failure if we don't reach an agreement on the +structure for the coordination and the organization of the trust fund. ..(and) don't manage to establish together +the priorities for immediate investments,"" to begin reconstructing the country. +© 2010 Miami Herald Media Company.

They also should be responsible for the +operation of the airport, for off loading planes and for scheduling all +incoming flights so there is no lost time waiting for planes to land. I also +think DoD should be responsible for airlifting supplies that are requested +by each one of the grid coordinators. Additionally, the helicopters should +be used to move critical patients to the hospital ship on the way and to the +aircraft carrier currently on station. At least once a day, the coordinator +assigned by the President and the Secretary of State should be responsible +for getting situation reports from all agencies on site, particularly +regarding food and water, security, medical and search and rescue. +The lack of command and control is allowing the situation to become more +chaotic rather than more coordinated. I believe that if the Secretary were +to talk to the other nations involved through the UN, they would be +supportive of better coordination. +Bottom line is that there is no order to the operation and you need strong +people in there who can speak on behalf of the President and the Secretary +and get things under control quickly. +I hope this is helpful.

Michael Mullen on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The team had been dispatched by CENTCOM +commander Gen. David Petraeus to underline his growing worries at the lack of progress in resolving the issue. The 33- +slide, 45-minute PowerPoint briefing stunned Mullen. The briefers reported that there was a growing perception among +Arab leaders that the U.S. was incapable of standing up to Israel, that CENTCOM's mostly Arab constituency was losing +faith in American promises, that Israeli intransigence on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was jeopardizing U.S. standing in +the region, and that Mitchell himself was (as a senior Pentagon officer later bluntly described it) ""too old, too slow ... and +too late."" +The January Mullen briefing was unprecedented. No previous CENTCOM commander had ever expressed himself on +what is essentially a political issue; which is why the briefers were careful to tell Mullen that their conclusions followed +from a December 2009 tour of the region where, on Petraeus's instructions, they spoke to senior Arab leaders. +""Everywhere they went, the message was pretty humbling,"" a Pentagon officer familiar with the briefing says. ""America +was not only viewed as weak, but its military posture in the region was eroding."" But Petraeus wasn't finished: two days +after the Mullen briefing, Petraeus sent a paper to the White House requesting that the West Bank and Gaza (which, with +Israel, is a part of the European Command -- or EUCOM), be made a part of his area of operations. Petraeus's reason +was straightforward: with U.S. troops deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan, the U.S. military had to be perceived by Arab +leaders as engaged in the region's most troublesome conflict. +[UPDATE: A senior military officer denied Sunday that Petraeus sent a paper to the White House. +""CENTCOM did have a team brief the CJCS on concerns revolving around the Palestinian issue, and CENTCOM did +propose a UCP change, but to CJCS, not to the WH,"" the officer said via email. ""GEN Petraeus was not certain what +might have been conveyed to the WH (if anything) from that brief to CJCS."" +(UCP means ""unified combatant command,"" like CENTCOM; CJCS refers to Mullen; and WH is the White House.)] +The Mullen briefing and Petraeus's request hit the White House like a bombshell. While Petraeus's request that +CENTCOM be expanded to include the Palestinians was denied (""it was dead on arrival,"" a Pentagon officer confirms), +the Obama administration decided it would redouble its efforts -- pressing Israel once again on the settlements issue, +sending Mitchell on a visit to a number of Arab capitals and dispatching Mullen for a carefully arranged meeting with the +chief of the Israeli General Staff, Lt. General Gabi Ashkenazi. While the American press speculated that Mullen's trip +focused on Iran, the JCS Chairman actually carried a blunt, and tough, message on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: that +Israel had to see its conflict with the Palestinians ""in a larger, regional, context"" -- as having a direct impact on America's +status in the region. Certainly, it was thought, Israel would get the message. +Israel didn't. When Vice President Joe Biden was embarrassed by an Israeli announcement that the Netanyahu +government was building 1,600 new homes in East Jerusalem, the administration reacted. But no one was more outraged +than Biden who, according to the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth, engaged in a private, and angry, exchange with the +Israeli Prime Minister. Not surprisingly, what Biden told Netanyahu reflected the importance the administration attached to +Petraeus's Mullen briefing: ""This is starting to get dangerous for us,"" Biden reportedly told Netanyahu. ""What you're doing +here undermines the security of our troops who are fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. That endangers us and it +endangers regional peace."" Yedioth Ahronoth went on to report: ""The vice president told his Israeli hosts that since many +people in the Muslim world perceived a connection between Israel's actions and US policy, any decision about +construction that undermines Palestinian rights in East Jerusalem could have an impact on the personal safety of +American troops fighting against Islamic terrorism."" The message couldn't be plainer: Israel's intransigence could cost +American lives. +There are important and powerful lobbies in America: the NRA, the American Medical Association, the lawyers -- and the +Israeli lobby. But no lobby is as important, or as powerful, as the U.S. military. While commentators and pundits might +reflect that Joe Biden's trip to Israel has forever shifted America's relationship with its erstwhile ally in the region, the real +break came in January, when David Petraeus sent a briefing team to the Pentagon with a stark warning: America's +relationship with Israel is important, but not as important as the lives of America's soldiers. Maybe Israel gets the message +now. +Mark Perry's newest book is Talking To Terrorists +http://warincontext.org/2olo/o3/14/israel-is-putting-american-liyes-at-risk/ +My piece on the briefing of Admiral Mullen by CENTCOM senior officers has occasioned a great deal of comment, as +well as some skepticism: how accurate is the account? Was it told to me by direct participants in the briefing? Is +there any basis for imagining that Petraeus has any kind of hidden agenda, whether that is a desire to expand +CENTCOM — or even hostility towards Israel. +I won't name my sources, even though it's clear to people in the Pentagon — and certainly to General Petraeus — who +they are. Was I told of the briefing by the briefers themselves? I will only say that there were four people in the +briefing — the two briefers, Admiral Mullen, and Admiral Mullen's primary adviser on the Israeli-Palestinian +conflict. I know two of the people involved in the briefing. Whether or not they are my sources is something for the +reader to determine. The account is not only accurate, it's a precis of what actually happened. There is a lot more to +it. The White House, State Department and Pentagon have not denied the account, and for good reason: it's true. +Is there any basis for imagining that Petraeus has any kind of hidden agenda in ordering the briefing? +I have been reporting on the American military for thirty years. My work on the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Four Stars, is +the authoritative account on the subject. I have deeply rooted contacts in the military that go back thirty years. I +have never met a senior military officer whom I do not admire. There is no greater insult than to believe that General +Petraeus or any other senior American military officer would use the lives of American soldiers as a lever to enhance +their own political future. My sense is that General Petraeus neither likes nor dislikes Israel: but he loves his country +and he wants to protect our soldiers. The current crisis in American relations with Israel is not a litmus test of +General Petraeus's loyalty to Israel, but of his, and our, concern for those Americans in uniform in the Middle East. +It is, perhaps, a sign of the depth of ""the Biden crisis"" that every controversy of this type seems to get translated into +whether or not America and its leaders are committed to Israel's security. This isn't about Israel's security, it's about +our security. +http://maxblumenthal.com/2010/03/pastor-hagee-and- +netanyahus-lovefest-on-eve-of-bidens-arrival-in-israel/ +Netanyahu and Pastor Hagee's Lovefest on Eve of Biden's +Arrival in Israel +On 03.09.10, By Max +(Videos recorded by Rachel Tabachnick; more videos coming shortly.) +Vice President Joe Biden was greeted in Jerusalem with the announcement that the Israeli Interior Ministry approved the +construction of 1600 new homes in Occupied East Jerusalem contrary to U.S. wishes and complicating Biden's mission to +help jump start the peace process. But Biden should have known that Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu intended to upset his +plans by Netanyahu's appearance with John Hagee. +The day after a series of talks between US Special Envoy for the Middle East George Mitchell and Netanyahu, and a day +before Biden's arrival, Netanyahu appeared onstage with Pastor John Hagee in Jerusalem. The occasion was Hagee's +Night To Honor Israel, an event the far-right Texas-based preacher arranged to tout his ministry's millions in donations to +Israeli organizations and to level bellicose rhetoric against Israel's perceived enemies. +At the gathering, Hagee called Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ""the Hitler of the Middle East"" and denounced +the Goldstone Report as ""character assassination by an unbiased and uninformed committee."" +Netanyahu welcomed the crowd of 1000 American evangelicals to Jerusalem, a city he described as ""the undivided, +eternal capitol of the Jewish people. Then, he told them, ""I salute you! The Jewish people salute you!"" He used the rest of +his speech to call for ""tough, biting sanctions"" against Iran that ""bite deep into its energy sector."" +Hagee and Netanyahu appear together on stage: +r-- +X +In the audience were top-level members of the Israeli government, from Ambassador Michael Oren to Jerusalem Mayor +Nir Barkat to Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon. Also present was Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, the chief rabbi of the illegal +West Bank settlement of Efrat who gained notoriety for lobbying President Bill Clinton to pardon his friend, fugitive +billionaire Marc Rich. Ayalon had stirred controversy days before when he refused to meet with a US congressional +delegation brought to Israel by the progressive Jewish group J Street. +Part One of Hagee's speech: +X +Part Two. +X +Pastor Hagee in Jerusalem 3/8/10 (Part II) from Max J Blumenthal on Vimeo. +Hagee's ceremony featured a 15-minute film highlighting the recipients of donations from John Hagee Ministries that +totaled $58 million since 2001. The recipients included Jewish settlements from the West Bank like Gush Etzion and +Shomron, which was involved in promoting an ""Obama Hilltop project"" that promoted more settlement building and +compared Obama to Pharoah. Hagee also announced funding for a pressure group run by the settlers evacuated from +Gush Katif in Gaza in 2005. During Israel's assault on Gaza in 2009, a group of Gush Katif residents lobbied the Israel +government to allow them to resettle the Palestinian coastal region. +Who is Hagee funding in Israel? +X +Who Is Haoee Funding In Israel? from Max Blumenthal on Vimeo. +The most notable of Hagee's funding recipients was an organization called Im Tirtzu. A student representative of this +group appeared in the film to thank Hagee for ""help[ing] us to ensure that students in Israel are on the right path, the path +of Zionism, the love of Israel, the path of solidarity."" Another student called for ""the second revolution in Israel."" +In February, Im Tirtzu funding a smear campaign against former Knesset member and New Israel Fund Director Naomi +Chazan that included posters caricaturing her with a horn on her head. The group misleadingly accused the New Israel +Fund of bankrolling 16 human rights organizations that contributed documentation to the Goldstone Report. +The smear campaign led to unsuccessful legislation in the Knesset designed to further cripple already marginalized Israeli +human rights groups. Meanwhile, the Jerusalem Post fired Chazan as a columnist without explanation. Gideon Levy, a +columnist for Ha'aretz, called Im Tirtzu ""a McCarthyite movement"" for its attacks on Chazan. +Although CUFI attempted to distance itself from Im Tirtzu's campaign, the organization's appearance during CUFI's +Jerusalem ceremony suggested that Hagee would continue to provide it with funding well into the future. +Republican Senator John McCain repudiated the endorsement of Hagee during his 2008 presidential campaign after +Hagee's statements describing the Holocaust as a fulfillment of divine prophecy came to light. Hagee has also said that +he believed the anti-Christ was ""partially Jewish, as was Adolph Hitler."" However, none of Hagee's comments have +deterred Israeli government officials from embracing him or accepting his millions in annual charity. +During Hagee's speech, he made no secret of his support for the illegal settlement enterprise that has been the source of +difficulties between the US and Israel. ""The settlements are not the problem,"" he boomed from the podium. ""The problem +is the refusal of Arab leaders to respect the right of Jewish people to live anywhere in the Middle East."" +Hagee received a rousing ovation from the crowd and the Israeli government officials seated beside the podium when he +proclaimed, ""World leaders do not have the authority to tell Israel and the Jewish people what they can and cannot do in +the city of Jerusalem. They don't have the authority to tell them what they can and cannot build, who can and and cannot +live there."" +The following day, on March 9, Vice President Joseph Biden arrived in Israel to meet with Netanyahu and officials from +the Palestinian Authority. He told reporters after touching down that he saw ""a moment of real opportunity.""","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769013 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN +PART B6 +From: sbwhoeop +Sent: Sunday, March 14, 2010 11 52 PM +To: +Subject: H; fyi.

While Petraeus's request that +CENTCOM be expanded to include the Palestinians was denied (""it was dead on arrival,"" a Pentagon officer confirms), +the Obama administration decided it would redouble its efforts -- pressing Israel once again on the settlements issue, +sending Mitchell on a visit to a number of Arab capitals and dispatching Mullen for a carefully arranged meeting with the +chief of the Israeli General Staff, Lt. General Gabi Ashkenazi. While the American press speculated that Mullen's trip +focused on Iran, the JCS Chairman actually carried a blunt, and tough, message on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: that +Israel had to see its conflict with the Palestinians ""in a larger, regional, context"" -- as having a direct impact on America's +status in the region. Certainly, it was thought, Israel would get the message. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769013 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769013 Date: 08/31/2015 +Israel didn't. When Vice President Joe Biden was embarrassed by an Israeli announcement that the Netanyahu +government was building 1,600 new homes in East Jerusalem, the administration reacted. But no one was more outraged +than Biden who, according to the Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth, engaged in a private, and angry, exchange with the +Israeli Prime Minister. Not surprisingly, what Biden told Netanyahu reflected the importance the administration attached to +Petraeus's Mullen briefing: ""This is starting to get dangerous for us,"" Biden reportedly told Netanyahu. ""What you're doing +here undermines the security of our troops who are fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. That endangers us and it +endangers regional peace."" Yedioth Ahronoth went on to report: ""The vice president told his Israeli hosts that since many +people in the Muslim world perceived a connection between Israel's actions and US policy, any decision about +construction that undermines Palestinian rights in East Jerusalem could have an impact on the personal safety of +American troops fighting against Islamic terrorism."" The message couldn't be plainer: Israel's intransigence could cost +American lives. +There are important and powerful lobbies in America: the NRA, the American Medical Association, the lawyers -- and the +Israeli lobby. But no lobby is as important, or as powerful, as the U.S. military. While commentators and pundits might +reflect that Joe Biden's trip to Israel has forever shifted America's relationship with its erstwhile ally in the region, the real +break came in January, when David Petraeus sent a briefing team to the Pentagon with a stark warning: America's +relationship with Israel is important, but not as important as the lives of America's soldiers. Maybe Israel gets the message +now. +Mark Perry's newest book is Talking To Terrorists +http://warincontext.org/2olo/o3/14/israel-is-putting-american-liyes-at-risk/ +My piece on the briefing of Admiral Mullen by CENTCOM senior officers has occasioned a great deal of comment, as +well as some skepticism: how accurate is the account? Was it told to me by direct participants in the briefing? Is +there any basis for imagining that Petraeus has any kind of hidden agenda, whether that is a desire to expand +CENTCOM — or even hostility towards Israel. +I won't name my sources, even though it's clear to people in the Pentagon — and certainly to General Petraeus — who +they are. Was I told of the briefing by the briefers themselves? I will only say that there were four people in the +briefing — the two briefers, Admiral Mullen, and Admiral Mullen's primary adviser on the Israeli-Palestinian +conflict. I know two of the people involved in the briefing. Whether or not they are my sources is something for the +reader to determine. The account is not only accurate, it's a precis of what actually happened. There is a lot more to +it. The White House, State Department and Pentagon have not denied the account, and for good reason: it's true. +Is there any basis for imagining that Petraeus has any kind of hidden agenda in ordering the briefing? +I have been reporting on the American military for thirty years. My work on the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Four Stars, is +the authoritative account on the subject. I have deeply rooted contacts in the military that go back thirty years. I +have never met a senior military officer whom I do not admire. There is no greater insult than to believe that General +Petraeus or any other senior American military officer would use the lives of American soldiers as a lever to enhance +their own political future. My sense is that General Petraeus neither likes nor dislikes Israel: but he loves his country +and he wants to protect our soldiers. The current crisis in American relations with Israel is not a litmus test of +General Petraeus's loyalty to Israel, but of his, and our, concern for those Americans in uniform in the Middle East. +It is, perhaps, a sign of the depth of ""the Biden crisis"" that every controversy of this type seems to get translated into +whether or not America and its leaders are committed to Israel's security. This isn't about Israel's security, it's about +our security. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769013 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769013 Date: 08/31/2015 +http://maxblumenthal.com/2010/03/pastor-hagee-and- +netanyahus-lovefest-on-eve-of-bidens-arrival-in-israel/ +Netanyahu and Pastor Hagee's Lovefest on Eve of Biden's +Arrival in Israel +On 03.09.10, By Max +(Videos recorded by Rachel Tabachnick; more videos coming shortly.) +Vice President Joe Biden was greeted in Jerusalem with the announcement that the Israeli Interior Ministry approved the +construction of 1600 new homes in Occupied East Jerusalem contrary to U.S. wishes and complicating Biden's mission to +help jump start the peace process. But Biden should have known that Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu intended to upset his +plans by Netanyahu's appearance with John Hagee. +The day after a series of talks between US Special Envoy for the Middle East George Mitchell and Netanyahu, and a day +before Biden's arrival, Netanyahu appeared onstage with Pastor John Hagee in Jerusalem. The occasion was Hagee's +Night To Honor Israel, an event the far-right Texas-based preacher arranged to tout his ministry's millions in donations to +Israeli organizations and to level bellicose rhetoric against Israel's perceived enemies. +At the gathering, Hagee called Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad ""the Hitler of the Middle East"" and denounced +the Goldstone Report as ""character assassination by an unbiased and uninformed committee."" +Netanyahu welcomed the crowd of 1000 American evangelicals to Jerusalem, a city he described as ""the undivided, +eternal capitol of the Jewish people. Then, he told them, ""I salute you! The Jewish people salute you!"" He used the rest of +his speech to call for ""tough, biting sanctions"" against Iran that ""bite deep into its energy sector."" +Hagee and Netanyahu appear together on stage: +r-- +X +In the audience were top-level members of the Israeli government, from Ambassador Michael Oren to Jerusalem Mayor +Nir Barkat to Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon. Also present was Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, the chief rabbi of the illegal +West Bank settlement of Efrat who gained notoriety for lobbying President Bill Clinton to pardon his friend, fugitive +billionaire Marc Rich. Ayalon had stirred controversy days before when he refused to meet with a US congressional +delegation brought to Israel by the progressive Jewish group J Street. +Part One of Hagee's speech: +X +Part Two. +X +Pastor Hagee in Jerusalem 3/8/10 (Part II) from Max J Blumenthal on Vimeo. +Hagee's ceremony featured a 15-minute film highlighting the recipients of donations from John Hagee Ministries that +totaled $58 million since 2001. The recipients included Jewish settlements from the West Bank like Gush Etzion and +Shomron, which was involved in promoting an ""Obama Hilltop project"" that promoted more settlement building and +compared Obama to Pharoah. Hagee also announced funding for a pressure group run by the settlers evacuated from +Gush Katif in Gaza in 2005. During Israel's assault on Gaza in 2009, a group of Gush Katif residents lobbied the Israel +government to allow them to resettle the Palestinian coastal region. +Who is Hagee funding in Israel? +X +Who Is Haoee Funding In Israel? from Max Blumenthal on Vimeo. +The most notable of Hagee's funding recipients was an organization called Im Tirtzu. A student representative of this +group appeared in the film to thank Hagee for ""help[ing] us to ensure that students in Israel are on the right path, the path +of Zionism, the love of Israel, the path of solidarity."" Another student called for ""the second revolution in Israel."" +In February, Im Tirtzu funding a smear campaign against former Knesset member and New Israel Fund Director Naomi +Chazan that included posters caricaturing her with a horn on her head. The group misleadingly accused the New Israel +Fund of bankrolling 16 human rights organizations that contributed documentation to the Goldstone Report. +The smear campaign led to unsuccessful legislation in the Knesset designed to further cripple already marginalized Israeli +human rights groups. Meanwhile, the Jerusalem Post fired Chazan as a columnist without explanation. Gideon Levy, a +columnist for Ha'aretz, called Im Tirtzu ""a McCarthyite movement"" for its attacks on Chazan. +Although CUFI attempted to distance itself from Im Tirtzu's campaign, the organization's appearance during CUFI's +Jerusalem ceremony suggested that Hagee would continue to provide it with funding well into the future. +Republican Senator John McCain repudiated the endorsement of Hagee during his 2008 presidential campaign after +Hagee's statements describing the Holocaust as a fulfillment of divine prophecy came to light. Hagee has also said that +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769013 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769013 Date: 08/31/2015 +he believed the anti-Christ was ""partially Jewish, as was Adolph Hitler."" However, none of Hagee's comments have +deterred Israeli government officials from embracing him or accepting his millions in annual charity. +During Hagee's speech, he made no secret of his support for the illegal settlement enterprise that has been the source of +difficulties between the US and Israel. ""The settlements are not the problem,"" he boomed from the podium. ""The problem +is the refusal of Arab leaders to respect the right of Jewish people to live anywhere in the Middle East."" +Hagee received a rousing ovation from the crowd and the Israeli government officials seated beside the podium when he +proclaimed, ""World leaders do not have the authority to tell Israel and the Jewish people what they can and cannot do in +the city of Jerusalem. They don't have the authority to tell them what they can and cannot build, who can and and cannot +live there."" +The following day, on March 9, Vice President Joseph Biden arrived in Israel to meet with Netanyahu and officials from +the Palestinian Authority.

Zuckerman +Posted June 18, 2010 +President Obama came into office as the heir to a great foreign policy legacy enjoyed by every recent U.S. president. +Why? Because the United States stands on top of the power ladder, not necessarily as the dominant power, but +certainly as the leading one. As such we are the sole nation capable of exercising global leadership on a whole range of +international issues from security, trade, and climate to counterterrorism. We also benefit from the fact that most +countries distrust the United States far less than they distrust one another, so we uniquely have the power to build +coalitions. As a result, most of the world still looks to Washington for help in their region and protection against +potential regional threats. +Yet, the Iraq war lingers; Afghanistan continues to be immersed in an endless cycle of tribalism, corruption, and Islamist +resurgence; Guantanamo remains open; Iran sees how North Korea toys with Obama and continues its programs to +develop nuclear weapons and missiles; Cuba spurns America's offers of a greater opening; and the Palestinians and +Israelis find that it is U.S. policy positions that defer serious negotiations, the direct opposite of what the Obama +administration hoped for. +The reviews of Obama's performance have been disappointing. He has seemed uncomfortable in the role of leading +other nations, and often seems to suggest there is nothing special about America's role in the world. The global +community was puzzled over the pictures of Obama bowing to some of the world's leaders and surprised by his +gratuitous criticisms of and apologies for America's foreign policy under the previous administration of George W. Bush. +One Middle East authority, Fouad Ajami, pointed out that Obama seems unaware that it is bad form and even a great +moral lapse to speak ill of one's own tribe while in the lands of others. +Even in Britain, for decades our closest ally, the talk in the press—supported by polls—is about the end of the ""special +relationship"" with America. French President Nicolas Sarkozy openly criticized Obama for months, including a direct +attack on his policies at the United Nations. Sarkozy cited the need to recognize the real world, not the virtual world, a +clear reference to Obama's speech on nuclear weapons. When the French president is seen as tougher than the +American president, you have to know that something is awry. Vladimir Putin of Russia has publicly scorned a number of +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769103 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769103 Date: 08/31/2015 +Oba ma's visions. Relations with the Chinese leadership got off to a bad start with the president's poorly-organized visit +to China, where his hosts treated him disdainfully and prevented him from speaking to a national television audience of +the Chinese people. The Chinese behavior was unprecedented when compared to visits by other U.S. presidents. +Obama's policy on Afghanistan—supporting a surge in troops, but setting a date next year when they will begin to +withdraw—not only gave a mixed signal, but provided an incentive for the Taliban just to wait us out. The withdrawal +part of the policy was meant to satisfy a domestic constituency, but succeeded in upsetting all of our allies in the region. +Further anxiety was provoked by Obama's severe public criticism of Afghan President Hamid Karzai and his coterie of +family and friends for their lackluster leadership, followed by a reversal of sorts regarding the same leaders. +Obama clearly wishes to do good and means well. But he is one of those people who believe that the world was born +with the word and exists by means of persuasion, such that there is no person or country that you cannot, by means of +logical and moral argument, bring around to your side. He speaks as a teacher, as someone imparting values and +generalities appropriate for a Sunday morning sermon, not as a tough-minded leader. He urges that things ""must be +done"" and ""should be done"" and that ""it is time"" to do them. As the former president of the Council on Foreign +Relations, Les Gelb, put it, there is ""the impression that Obama might confuse speeches with policy."" Another journalist +put it differently when he described Obama as an ""NPR [National Public Radio] president who gives wonderful +speeches."" In other words, he talks the talk but doesn't know how to walk the walk. The Obama presidency has so far +been characterized by a well-intentioned but excessive belief in the power of rhetoric with too little appreciation of +reality and loyalty. +In his Cairo speech about America and the Muslim world, Obama managed to sway Arab public opinion but was unable +to budge any Arab leader. Even the king of Saudi Arabia, a country that depends on America for its survival, reacted with +disappointment and dismay. Obama's meeting with the king was widely described as a disaster. This is but one example +of an absence of the personal chemistry that characterized the relationships that Presidents Clinton and Bush had with +world leaders. This is a serious matter because foreign policy entails an understanding of the personal and political +circumstances of the leaders as well as the cultural and historical factors of the countries we deal with. +Les Gelb wrote of Obama, ""He is so self-confident that he believes he can make decisions on the most complicated of +issues after only hours of discussion."" Strategic decisions go well beyond being smart, which Obama certainly is. They +must be based on experience that discerns what works, what doesn't—and why. This requires experienced staffing, +which Obama and his top appointees simply do not seem to have. Or as one Middle East commentator put it, ""There are +always two chess games going on. One is on the top of the table, the other is below the table. The latter is the one that +counts, but the Americans don't know how to play that game."" +Recent U.S. attempts to introduce more meaningful sanctions against Iran produced a U.N. resolution that is way less +than the ""crippling"" sanctions the administration promised. The United States even failed to achieve the political benefit +of a unanimous Security Council vote. Turkey, the Muslim anchor of NATO for almost 60 years, and Brazil, our largest ally +in Latin America, voted against our resolution. Could it be that these long-standing U.S. allies, who gave cover to +Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and Iran's nuclear ambitions, have decided that there is no cost in lining up with America's most +serious enemies and no gain in lining up with this administration? +The end result is that a critical mass of influential people in world affairs who once held high hopes for the president +have begun to wonder whether they misjudged the man. They are no longer dazzled by his rock star personality and +there is a sense that there is something amateurish and even incompetent about how Obama is managing U.S. power. +For example, Obama has asserted that America is not at war with the Muslim world. The problem is that parts of the +Muslim world are at war with America and the West. Obama feels, fairly enough, that America must be contrite in its +dealings with the Muslim world. But he has failed to address the religious intolerance, failing economies, tribalism, and +gender apartheid that together contribute to jihadist extremism. This was startling and clear when he chose not to +publicly support the Iranians who went to the streets in opposition to their oppressive government, based on a +judgment that our support might be counterproductive. Yet, he reaches out instead to the likes of Bashar Assad of Syria, +Iran's agent in the Arab world, sending our ambassador back to Syria even as it continues to rearm Hezbollah in Lebanon +and expands its role in the lran-Hezbollah-Hamas alliance. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769103 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769103 Date: 08/31/2015 +The underlying issue is that the Arab world has different estimates on how to deal with an aggressive, expansionist Iran. +The Arabs believe you do not deal with Iran with the open hand of a handshake but with the clenched fist of power. +Arab leaders fear an Iran proceeding full steam with its nuclear weapons program on top of its programs to develop +intermediate-range ballistic missiles. All the while centrifuges keep spinning in Iran, and Arab leaders ask whether Iran +will be emboldened by what they interpret as American weakness and faltering willpower. They did not see Obama or +his administration as understanding the region, where naiveté is interpreted as a weakness of character, as amateurism, +and as proof of the absence of the tough stuff of which leaders are made. (That's why many Arab leaders were appalled +at the decision to have a civilian trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in New York. After 9/11, many of them had engaged +in secret counterterrorism activities under the umbrella of an American promise that these activities would never be +made public; now they feared that this would be the exact consequence of an open trial.) +America right now appears to be unreliable to traditional friends, compliant to rivals, and weak to enemies. One +renowned Asian leader stated recently at a private dinner in the United States, ""We in Asia are convinced that Obama is +not strong enough to confront his opponents, but we fear that he is not strong enough to support his friends."" +The United States for 60 years has met its responsibilities as the leader and the defender of the democracies of the free +world. We have policed the sea lanes, protected the air and space domains, countered terrorism, responded to +genocide, and been the bulwark against rogue states engaging in aggression. The world now senses, in the context of +the erosion of America's economic power and the pressures of our budget deficits, that we will compress our +commitments. But the world needs the vision, idealism, and strong leadership that America brings to international +affairs. This can be done and must be done. But we are the only ones who can do it. +http://www.usnews.com/articles/opinion/2010/06/18/mort-zuckerman-world-sees-obama-as-incompetent-and- +amateur.html +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769103 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4876,C05769105,,H,"Valmoro, Lona J",124,2010-06-20T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0084/DOC_0C05769105/C05769105.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,"Valmoro, Lona J ",,"Sunday, June 20, 2010 3:55 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769105,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"MS -- As you may recall, +Do you think that would work? +Lona Valmoro +S • ecial Assistant to the Secretary of State +(direct)","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769105 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Valmoro, Lona J +Sent: Sunday, June 20, 2010 3:55 PM +To: +MS -- As you may recall, +Do you think that would work? +Lona Valmoro +S • ecial Assistant to the Secretary of State +(direct) +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769105 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4877,C05769107,MITCHELL-ASHTON,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-06-20T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0084/DOC_0C05769107/C05769107.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,"Sullivan, Jacobi ","Abedin, Huma","Sunday, June 20, 2010 5:18 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769107,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Below is a readout of Mitchell's meeting with Ashton.

The results have +been mixed. But now the president's focus is visibly shifting. In the next 18 months, Obama's record abroad will +be made or broken by his ability to do business with two nominal U.S. allies: Hamid Karzai and Binyamin +Netanyahu. +Karzai has become the hardest problem in Obama's Afghanistan surge, one that might be summed up as ""can't +win with him, can't win without him."" Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu holds the key to whether Israel will be +prepared to accept a Palestinian state within the two-year time frame Obama has established -- and also, +perhaps, whether Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons will lead to war. +Both men are prickly and somewhat inscrutable. Both know their countries and their own careers depend on +support from the United States, but both are also resistant to key elements of Obama's policies. Handling them +well requires skillful and subtle diplomacy by the U.S. president and by those who carry out his policies. +And Obama has not done well. In fact, his treatment of the Israeli and Afghan leaders during one week in late +March -- immediately after his victory on health care -- marked a low point of his performance as president. +First, Obama seized on an errant Israeli announcement about housing construction in East Jerusalem to reopen a +pointless battle with Netanyahu. During a disastrous March 23 meeting at the White House, Obama demanded - +- in vain -- that Israel stop all building in Jerusalem; and at one point he left Netanyahu and his delegation to +stew in the Roosevelt room while he retired to the second-floor residence for dinner. +Five days later, Obama flew to Kabul for another cold meeting, this time with Karzai. In a briefing for reporters +on the plane, national security adviser James Jones made it clear that Obama was displeased with Karzai's lack +of progress since beginning a new term as president last fall. In case there was any doubt, Obama spelled out +that dissatisfaction in a television interview a day after his return. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769117 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769117 Date: 08/31/2015 +Was it hubris from health care that brought on this burst of presidential imperialism? Whatever the cause, the +results were disastrous. Netanyahu retreated to Jerusalem, where, after a couple of weeks of sulking, he +defiantly announced that settlement construction in Jerusalem would continue. Karzai summoned Iranian +President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Kabul, then delivered a tirade against Western interference that concluded +with a threat to join the Taliban. +The administration has spent the past month cleaning up this mess. Obama abruptly changed his approach, +sending a note to Karzai in early April thanking him for the Kabul visit and confirming his invitation to visit +Washington in May -- a trip that, just days earlier, the White House had hinted at canceling. Meanwhile, the +president and a good part of his Cabinet have been heaping love on Israel -- if not precisely Netanyahu -- by +proclaiming their commitment to the relationship in speech after speech before pro-Israel groups. +The result is that the administration now has a detailed plan for working with Karzai over the next several +months. Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, which have been delayed for two months by the flap over Jerusalem, +might finally begin this week. Quiet diplomacy by the administration's special envoys in the Middle East and +Afghanistan, George Mitchell and Richard Holbrooke, has achieved what presidential lectures did not. +The underlying problems, however, haven't changed. Karzai still has little appetite for attacking the corruption +in his government or rallying support for U.S. military campaigns against the Taliban. Netanyahu remains +wedded to a right-wing coalition that would not allow him to make significant concessions in peace +negotiations, even if he wanted to. +Obama has to find a way to coax each of them toward a change of course. Public bullying won't do it. +Assurances of U.S. support and stroking by special envoys go only so far. What's missing is personal chemistry +and confidence, the construction of a bond between leaders that can persuade a U.S. ally to take a risk; in other +words, presidential ""engagement.""

The results have +been mixed. But now the president's focus is visibly shifting. In the next 18 months, Obama's record abroad will +be made or broken by his ability to do business with two nominal U.S. allies: Hamid Karzai and Binyamin +Netanyahu. +Karzai has become the hardest problem in Obama's Afghanistan surge, one that might be summed up as ""can't +win with him, can't win without him."" Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu holds the key to whether Israel will be +prepared to accept a Palestinian state within the two-year time frame Obama has established -- and also, +perhaps, whether Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons will lead to war. +Both men are prickly and somewhat inscrutable. Both know their countries and their own careers depend on +support from the United States, but both are also resistant to key elements of Obama's policies. Handling them +well requires skillful and subtle diplomacy by the U.S. president and by those who carry out his policies. +And Obama has not done well. In fact, his treatment of the Israeli and Afghan leaders during one week in late +March -- immediately after his victory on health care -- marked a low point of his performance as president. +First, Obama seized on an errant Israeli announcement about housing construction in East Jerusalem to reopen a +pointless battle with Netanyahu. During a disastrous March 23 meeting at the White House, Obama demanded - +- in vain -- that Israel stop all building in Jerusalem, and at one point he left Netanyahu and his delegation to +stew in the Roosevelt room while he retired to the second-floor residence for dinner. +Five days later, Obama flew to Kabul for another cold meeting, this time with Karzai. In a briefing for reporters +on the plane, national security adviser James Jones made it clear that Obama was displeased with Karzai's lack +of progress since beginning a new term as president last fall. In case there was any doubt, Obama spelled out +that dissatisfaction in a television interview a day after his return. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769159 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769159 Date: 08/31/2015 +Was it hubris from health care that brought on this burst of presidential imperialism? Whatever the cause, the +results were disastrous. Netanyahu retreated to Jerusalem, where, after a couple of weeks of sulking, he +defiantly announced that settlement construction in Jerusalem would continue. Karzai summoned Iranian +President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to Kabul, then delivered a tirade against Western interference that concluded +with a threat to join the Taliban. +The administration has spent the past month cleaning up this mess. Obama abruptly changed his approach, +sending a note to Karzai in early April thanking him for the Kabul visit and confirming his invitation to visit +Washington in May -- a trip that, just days earlier, the White House had hinted at canceling. Meanwhile, the +president and a good part of his Cabinet have been heaping love on Israel -- if not precisely Netanyahu -- by +proclaiming their commitment to the relationship in speech after speech before pro-Israel groups. +The result is that the administration now has a detailed plan for working with Karzai over the next several +months. Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, which have been delayed for two months by the flap over Jerusalem, +might finally begin this week. Quiet diplomacy by the administration's special envoys in the Middle East and +Afghanistan, George Mitchell and Richard Holbrooke, has achieved what presidential lectures did not. +The underlying problems, however, haven't changed. Karzai still has little appetite for attacking the corruption +in his government or rallying support for U.S. military campaigns against the Taliban. Netanyahu remains +wedded to a right-wing coalition that would not allow him to make significant concessions in peace +negotiations, even if he wanted to. +Obama has to find a way to coax each of them toward a change of course. Public bullying won't do it. +Assurances of U.S. support and stroking by special envoys go only so far. What's missing is personal chemistry +and confidence, the construction of a bond between leaders that can persuade a U.S. ally to take a risk; in other +words, presidential ""engagement.""

Just for +comparison, here are figures for other UN humanitarian appeals: DRC is funded at 5%, Sudan at 23%, Afghanistan at +31%, Kenya at 18%, Chad at 4%. Clearly, not all disasters/responses are the same. Perhaps the scenario that most +closely approximates the needs generated by the Haiti earthquake is that of the Indian Ocean tsunami +(2004/2005). Oddly enough, the UN Flash Appeal for the Indian Ocean Tsunami ran to $1.4 billion (the exact same figure +as for the Haiti Flash Appeal). In the end, the UN humanitarian appeal for the Indian Ocean tsunami stood at $1.2 billion +(a coverage rate of 85%). In the worst of disasters, the funding for UN humanitarian appeals never reaches 100%. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769175 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769175 Date: 08/31/2015 +We should not forget that there is an enormous amount of money being funneled through channels outside the UN +appeal system. For example, the Red Cross movement (including IFRC, ICRC and the national societies) has raised +between $700 and $800 million for Haiti. The American Red Cross alone raised $400 million (they project that it will +take them five years to spend this money on relief and recovery activities in Haiti). InterAction, the consortium of US- +based NGOs has announced that its members have raised nearly $700 million for relief and early recovery activities in +Haiti. I met with two NGOs today: OXFAM has raised over $100 million. World Vision has raised $250 million +specifically for its earthquake response in Haiti (on top of its regular budget of $50 million for Haiti). We haven't been +able to get reliable figures on what non-US NGOs have raised, but I would imagine it to be considerable (at least over +$500 million as a conservative estimate). +Clearly, there is an +enormous amount of money raised for Haiti relief and recovery efforts through the UN system and outside the UN +system. The challenge is to get an accurate tally of the funding available from UN agencies, lOs and NGOs (perhaps a +tasking for the OSE and/or OCHA) and maximize coordination among the various agencies holding this money to +improve allocation of resources. There very well may be underfunded sectors and overfunded sectors in terms of the +humanitarian response. Information sharing among donors and aid agencies sitting on funding is critical to avoid +spending too much money in some sectors/geographic areas and spending too little in others. +Doug Mercado +Adviser - Humanitarian Affairs +United States Mission to the United Nations +Tel. +1-212-415-4398 +Mob. +Fax +1-212-415-4141 +E-mail: mercadode@state.gov +E-mail: +www.usun.state.gov +Follow us on Twitter and Facebook +This email is UNCLASSIFIED. +From: VentreII, Patrick H (USUN) +Sent: Monday, March 29, 2010 5:16 PM +To: Rice, Susan E (USUN); Anderson, Brooke D (USUN) +Cc: Cousens, Elizabeth (USUN); Ahmed, Salman (USUN); Tekach, Mara (USUN); Vadino, Carolyn; Mercado, Douglas E; +Sammis, John F (USUN); Barton, Rick (USUN) +Subject: Reuters / Haiti humanitarian need competes with recovery plan +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769175 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769175 Date: 08/31/2015 +Haiti humanitarian need competes with recovery +plan +Mon Mar 29, 2010 4:55pm EDT +* Haiti humanitarian aid 52 percent short of $1.4 bin goal +* Time and money running out for humanitarian effort - UN +By Michelle Nichols +UNITED NATIONS, March 29 (Reuters) - As donors are being asked to dig deep for Haiti's reconstruction, +they also need to address the country's immediate humanitarian need as hurricane season looms and quake +survivors face increasing violence, U.N. officials said on Monday. +While a U.N. summit in New York on Wednesday will aim to raise an initial $3.8 billion for the impoverished +Caribbean nation's recovery, an appeal by the world body for $1.4 billion in humanitarian aid is 52 percent short +of its goal. +The initial appeal by the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs for $575 million was met +within a month, but when the call for funding was later more than doubled, the donations slowed to a trickle. +""Perhaps the extension of the flash appeal has got a little bit crowded by the fact that this conference -- with a +big ask for recovery -- is coming, so maybe donors have held back a little,"" said U.N. Development Program +chief Helen Clark. +""Obviously this medium/long term reconstruction recovery is incredibly important but ... if we don't get the +humanitarian relief side right as well you don't have the foundation for the successful longer term recovery,"" she +told a news conference. +Possibly more than 300,000 were killed when a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince +on Jan. 12 in what some experts are calling the deadliest natural disaster of modern times. Haiti's economy and +infrastructure were decimated and more than 1 million survivors left homeless. +""We should not think that the humanitarian crisis is over. The rain and the hurricane season will start soon,"" said +Edmond Mulct, acting head of the U.N. mission in Haiti. +""This may cause hundreds of thousands of Haitians who now live in tents -- some made of sticks and cardboard +-- to once again lose everything,"" he said. ""Lives are at stake; we need to urgently build more durable shelter."" +He also said protection of the vulnerable, particularly the women and children in camps, needed to be +strengthened. ""But time and money is running out,"" Mulet said. +Violence is also increasing, he said, with the National Hospital, morgue and aid group Doctors Without Borders +reporting an increase in gunshot wounds. Mulct said there had also been a rise in sexual violence. +Mulct gained notoriety for wielding an iron fist during a previous stint as head of the U.N. mission when he led +mostly Brazilian ""blue helmet"" troops in a successful crackdown on Haiti's heavily armed gangs. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769175 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769175 Date: 08/31/2015 +""Now they are outside on the streets so now we have to start all over again from zero,"" he said of the thousands +of gang members who escaped from jail after the earthquake. +This email is UNCLASSIFIED. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769175 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4913,C05769176,UNDELIVERABLE: SPEECH ETA?,H,postmaster@state.gov,225,2010-01-20T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0059/DOC_0C05769176/C05769176.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Undeliverable: Speech ETA?,,postmaster@state.gov,,"Wednesday, January 20, 2010 10:30 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769176,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Delivery has failed to these recipients or distribution lists: +tillemnantsOstate.gov +The recipient's e-mail address was not found in the recipient's e-mail system.

When Nixon +wanted foreign policy advice, everyone knew +where he got it from: Henry 'Kissinger, variously +his national security adviser and secretary of +state. +In contrast, Mr Obama has no big foreign policy +strategist. Even insiders give different answers +when asked to whom he turns for advice on the +big international questions. But almost all agree +with the following observation. ""The truth is that +President Obama is his own Henry Kissinger — +no one else plays that role,"" says a senior official. +""Every administration reflects the personality of +the president. This president wants all the trains +Barack Obama at the Great Wall of China last year. Unlike his +predecessor Richard Nixon, who turned to Henry Kissinger for +advice, the US president has no big foreign policy strategist +routed through the Oval Office."" +Fifteen months after he took office, the character and structure of Mr Obama's foreign policy machinery is still evolving. +But from interviews with dozens of insiders and outsiders, including senior officials both authorised and unauthorised to +speak, and three former national security advisers, it is clear the buck not only stops with, but often floats for quite a long +time around, Mr Obama himself. +Foreigners have complained about the tendency of his domestic agenda to crowd out the international one — the passage +last week of healthcare reform was greeted with an audible sigh of relief among US allies. But within foreign policy itself, +his centralised structure can also result in many issues being left on the back burner awaiting presidential attention, say +critics. +""On the positive side, we have a very conscientious president who takes advice widely,"" says the official. ""On the debit +side, for all the president's intelligence, Barack Obama came to office with very little experience. He just doesn't have +much depth on some issues.' +The core of Mr Obama's foreign policy machinery is in the White House-based National Security Council, which advises +the president and co-ordinates activities across an increasingly complex alphabet soup of Washington departments, +military commands and intelligence agencies. The most widely questioned link in the chain is Jim Jones, whom, to many +people's surprise, Mr Obama brought in as his national security adviser. +Only briefly acquainted with Mr Obama beforehand, General Jones, a retired four-star marine corps general, shows little +interest in running the ""inter-agency"" process — a key part of the job. Somewhat unconventionally, Gen Jones travels +frequently and is thus often out of town. Unusually, it is Mr Obama himself who usually chairs the weekly National Security +Council, known as the ""principals meeting"", not Gen Jones. +Rahm Emanuel, Mr Obama's chief of staff, is also a key part of it. ""If you were to ask me who the real national security +adviser is, I would say there were three or four, of whom Rehm is one and of which Gen Jones is probably the least +important,"" says another official. +Anyone who has dealt with Gen Jones speaks highly of his matter-of-factness, his geniality and the respect many foreign +governments have for him — Pakistan and Israel among them. But as he himself admitted rather disarmingly last year, he +does not have a taste for bureaucracy. Speaking at the Atlantic Council, a think-tank where he previously worked, Gen +Jones provoked laughter when he said: ""I fondly remember [the Atlantic Council] as a place where people actually did +what you asked them to do. In my new role I'm finding out that an order is a basis for negotiation."" +The lack of a strong national security adviser has created recurring difficulties. Perhaps the best example is the Arab- +Israeli peace process, which Mr Obama launched on his second day in office when he appointed Geproe Mitphspil as his +envoy. Three months later, Mr Obama insisted Benjamin Netanyahu freeze all settlements activity in order to boost Arab +confidence in the talks. +In a heated ;34.16NA(dpyin the ,Clvg +li..0f7;ce. last May, in which Mr Netanyahu refused to accede to Mr Obama's demand, the +only officials present were Mr Emanuel and David Axelrod, senior adviser to Mr Obama in office and during the campaign. +Gen Jones was not there. The fallout put the talks in abeyance and damped high Arab hopes for Mr Obama. +""The question is, which bright spark advised the president to demand a settlements freeze without working out what the +next step should be when Netanyahu inevitably said 'No'?"" says Leslie Gelb, an official in the Carter administration and +former head of the Council on Foreign Relations. ""Why wasn't George Mitchell in the room? Where was Jones?"" +Mr Obama's character is also stamped on the inter-agency process, set up and managed by Tom Donilon, deputy +national security adviser. The nitty-gritty of foreign policy-making is done at these frequent ""deputies' meetings"", which +can sometimes consume four to six hours a day. +Described by one insider as ""the most powerful man in the White House whose name isn't widely known"", Mr Donilon, +who was an official in the Clinton administration, is the man who keeps Mr Obama's trains running on time. And there are +a lot of trains. Last year, Mr Donilon held 270 deputies meetings — a workload described as ""clinically insane"" by a former +senior diplomat under Bill Clinton. +But as time goes on, it is becoming streamlined — now taking up roughly two to three hours a day, say officials. ""People +forget that we inherited two wars, terrorism threats, and perhaps the biggest single eight-year decline [George W. Bush's +two terms] in America's power and reputation in our history,"" says a senior official. ""It took time to put in place a process +that could deal with the very complex decisions we had to take."" +Also the organiser of Mr Obama's 9.30arn national security briefing, Mr Donilon reinstated the paper trails needed to +prevent intra-governmental anarchy, using the model devised by Brent Scowcroft, national security adviser to George +Bush senior and Gerald Ford. Vice-president Joe Biden's team was also incorporated to prevent the kind of ""parallel +process"" Dick Cheney used to circumvent the bureaucracy under George W. Bush. +""If you look for the 2002 or 2003 meeting where the decision to go to war in iraq was taken, you cannot find it,"" says the +senior official. ""By getting the process right, we are improving the quality of decisions."" +The deputies' ties go back years. For example, the families of Mr Don;Ion and Jim Steinberg, deputy secretary of state, +often go on holiday together. Mr Donilon's wife, Cathy Russell, is chief of staff to Jill Biden, the vice-president's wife. Mr +Steinberg's wife, Sherburne Abbott, is deputy to John Holdren, Mr Obama's chief scientific adviser. +All those who regularly attend, including Michele Flournoy, a senior Pentagon official, and Susan Rice, the US +ambassador to the United Nations, have known each other since at least 1993, when they started off in the Clinton +administration. This is just as well, since they spend half their lives together: ""A lot of work gets done in that group,"" says +Ms Flournoy. ""Sometimes it feels like shovelling coal to keep the fires going."" +The refurbished machinery was perhaps most in evidence during the build-up to Mr Obama's decision in December to +send another 30,000 US troops to Afghanistan — a journey that took four months and involved him in 40 hours of Oval +Office meetings. +But the very diligence of the process crowded out Mr Obama's time to focus on other crises — of which there are many. +""Time is the most precious commodity a president has,"" says a former national security adviser. ""On average he is only +going to have 45 minutes a day for foreign policy, so you want to make sure it is well spent."" +The widely expected departure of Gen Jones before the end of the year has also created rivalries within the engine room. +Those who are thought to have ambitions to replace him include Mr Steinberg, Ms Rice, Mr Donilon and Denis +McDonough, NSC chief of staff and the foreign policy official who is personally closest to Mr Obama. Although all are +widely respected, none is considered a big strategic thinker in the Kissinger or Scowcroft mould. +Described by Mr Gelb as Mr Obama's ""Lord High Executioner"", Mr McDonough ""has appended himself to the Chicago +crowd"", says another official. Mr McDonough's widely feared role highlights some of the contradictions of Mr Obama's +foreign policy apparatus. +Once an adviser to former Senate majority leader Tom Deschle, Mr McDonough was frequently at Mr Obama's side +during the campaign. Insiders describe him as the ""enforcer"" and as the keeper of ""message discipline"", a key element of +any campaign but something that can drastically slow the wheels of government. +""McDonough is the guy from the campaign and the one who plays basketball with the president — they're very close,"" says +an official. ""Instead of Jim Jones telling McDonough what the president thinks, it is the other way round."" +Indeed, if Mr Obama's highly centralised foreign policy machine had a face, it would be Mr McDonough's. ""Donilon has +been perceived to make the process inclusive and give everyone a seat at the table,"" says David Rothkopf, a former +Clinton official and scholar on the NSC. ""Fairly or not, McDonough has been perceived as representing a process that +was taking place in another room, among the inner circle, at a table to which most weren't invited."" +Mr Obama has built a machine in which all roads lead to and from him. On the minus side, that means a lot of lower-level +meetings without decisions. It also means neglecting issues that cannot be squeezed into his diary, such as trade policy, +which continues to drift; or relations with India, which are unnecessarily tense. +And it means that the fingerprints of Mr Obama's political inner circle are detected by the rumour mill even when they are +absent, such as on the president's decision to begin the rog,,g: witsirawal from anistan. in July 2011 — a +recommendation that came from Robert Gates, secretary of defence. +On the plus side. Mr Obama has a sharp learning curve, which means his administration continues to evolve. On the plus +side also, if it has to be White House-centric, it is perhaps better with him as the Sun King than, say, Nixon or George W. +Bush. +""At the end of each meeting, the president summarises what everyone has said and the arguments each has made with a +real lawyer's clarity,"" says a participant to the NSC principals meeting, which includes Mr Gates and Mrs Clinton. ""When +the president finally makes a decision, it is with the full facts and usually shows a high calibre of judgment."" +When Mr Obama makes a decision, that is. +STATE AND DEFENCE DEPARTMENTS +An 'alliance of the unsackables' finds it can confront the inner circle +If there is a caveat to the depiction of the Obama administration as White House-centric, it is in the +alliance between Hillary Clinton and Robert Gates, the president's secretaries of state and defence. +Mrs Clinton has proved one of the surprises of Barack Obama's tenure, forging a strong working +relationship with her former rival and establishing herself as his chief foreign policy spokesperson +internationally — if not at home, where Mr Obama's inner circle often seems to monopolise the explaining. +Mr Gates, who recently decided to stay for at least another year, is seen as unsackable, not least for the +credibility he lends on issues ranging from missile defence to Guantanamo Bay and Afghanistan. As a +holdover from the Bush administration, his national security bona fides are hard to dispute. It is no +coincidence that Mrs Clinton is probably the only other unsackable cabinet member. +The combination has made itself felt in some of the administration's most significant debates, notably on +Afghanistan, where both successfully urged the deployment of more troops. +""Gates and Clinton happen to like each other, which no one really predicted,"" says one official, who notes +that while the traditional role of the NSC is to ""play referee"" between the state and defence departments, +it is as often nowadays a combination of the two against the White House. This is very different from how +it worked when Donald Rumsfeld and Colin Powell held those positions. +""We work together well,"" Mr Gates said at an appearance with Mrs Clinton on CNN last year. ""I think it +starts with, frankly, based on my experience, the secretary of defence being willing to acknowledge that +the secretary of state is the principal spokesperson for United States foreign policy."" +Their outlooks often overlap. From the Pentagon, Mr Gates has long called for more US spending on +diplomacy. As chief diplomat, Mrs Clinton has adopted a muscular approach. On Iran, both favour tough +sanctions; on Russia, both have sought to reassure Moscow's neighbours even while improving relations +with the Kremlin. +But for all their workmanlike co-operation, there is no escaping the fact that Mrs Clinton is not part of the +Obama inner circle — a traditionally helpful feature in that job. There is also a constant ""residue of friction"" +between Mr Obama's and Mrs Clinton's teams, according to insiders. For example, Cheryl Mills, Mrs +Clinton's chief of staff, has had several run-ins with others in the administration. +One official describes Mrs Clinton as ""totally loyal"" to Mr Obama. He adds: ""She and the president are not +the best of friends — how could they be? But she totally respects the presidency — she was married to a +president and she wanted to be one ... She still might be."" +Copyright The Financial Times Limited 2010. Print a single copy of this article for personal use.

KATZ (AP) –2 hours ago +PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti — Haiti's president on Wednesday rejected U.S. Senate recommendations on +holding an election for his successor, brushing off criticism that the current process will leave the shattered +country without a credible leader. +A report issued this month by Sen. Richard Lugar, the ranking Republican on the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations +Committee, ""strongly encourages"" Haiti to let its international partners help restructure the eight-member +Provisional Electoral Council, which has been accused of corruption. +The report also recommends ensuring the participation of the key opposition party of ousted former President +Jean-Bertrand Aristide, which was blocked from participating in 2009 legislative contests because of a dispute +over rival candidate lists. +On Tuesday, President Rene Preval fulfilled one recommendation of the report by issuing a signed decree +setting election day for Nov. 28. +But speaking at a news conference in an open-air gazebo alongside the broken remains of the national palace a +day later, Preval told reporters he had no intention of complying with the rest, including changing the election +body, known as the CEP. +""I'm not doing the CEP with international partners. I'm doing the CEP with national partners,"" Preval said. ""The +senator's proposition is inadmissible."" +Seeking to show the council was not ""hand-picked,"" as he said in English, Preval handed out copies of +nomination letters for the panel's members submitted by various national and religious organizations, including +the National Council of Political Parties, Roman Catholic Church and National Confederation of Haitian +Vodou. +He also defended the prohibition on the exiled Aristide's Fanmi Lava1as party in last year's elections, a ban that +came after rival factions of the party submitted competing lists of candidates. +""International donors need to look for an accord with the CEP and the political parties and the factions of Fanmi +Lava1as,"" Preval said. ""We are giving (the parties) the support that they need, and the factions need to figure it +out (for themselves)."" +Preval did not discuss the forced resignation of an electoral council member accused of stealing a staffer's pay +or opponents' allegations that the council gave special privileges to the president's newly formed Unity Party +ahead of planned Feb. 28 legislative elections, which were postponed because of the Jan. 12 earthquake that +devastated the capital. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769221 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769221 Date: 08/31/2015 +He also declined to answer questions about another U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee report that +criticizes Haiti's earthquake recovery, saying he would address that issue at a news conference on reconstruction +next week. +Elections have never been easy in Haiti, a country whose founding president crowned himself emperor. It took +186 years to hold what the international community considered a democratic election in 1990, which was then +closely followed by a coup d'etat. +Preva1, in fact, is the only Haitian ever to be elected president, serve a full term and hand off power to an +elected successor. Unable to run for re-election in the November contest, he pledged to relinquish power again +as he did in the 1990s — after protesters alleged earlier this year that he was dragging his feet on holding +presidential the election. +Doing so will require significant help. The electoral council's headquarters were destroyed and its records lost in +the quake, while millions of voters were either killed, made homeless or displaced. Its new headquarters is a +former Gold's Gym seized by drug agents. +The election will also be a cost burden for this grindingly poor Caribbean nation: $29 million according to +electoral officials at the news conference with Preval, $38 million according to the U.S. Senate report. +The Organization of American States and United Nations have pledged support. U.N. Secretary-General Ban +Ki-moon issued a statement Wednesday praising the decree setting the election date and pledged the help of +U.N. peacekeepers and advisers in preparing and supporting the ballot. Ban urged member states to quickly +provide the money needed to run the vote. +Copyright © 2010 The Associated Press.

At a recent conference of 35 +countries in Madrid, Mr. Holbrooke drummed up more support from allies for the Afghan government's campaign to +reintegrate Taliban fighters into mainstream society.Mr. Karzai's longer-term effort to reconcile with Taliban leaders, +and his negotiations with Pakistan, could propel Mr. Holbrooke back into a central role.

Husain Haqqani, Pakistan's ambassador to Washington, said that Mr. Holbrooke took time to +understand Pakistan's concerns. ""Ambassador Holbrooke is liked by some, admired by others and seen as effective, even +by those who may not like him,"" Mr. Haqqani said.Still, General Petraeus is indisputably the key player, and he has +wasted no time asserting his control. On a secure videoconference call last Saturday, a person familiar with the call said, +General Petraeus threw his support behind a costly, and controversial, plan to install temporary generators to supply +more electricity to Kandahar, the Taliban stronghold that is the next major American military target.Mr. Holbrooke and +Ambassador Eikenberry swiftly assented. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769239 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4944,C05769242,FYI,,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-07-01T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0085/DOC_0C05769242/C05769242.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: fyi,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Sullivan, Jacob.'","Thursday, July 1, 2010 3:04 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769242,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"This is the paper - see below. +cdm","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769242 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Thursday, July 1, 2010 3:04 PM +To: +Cc: Sullivan, Jacob.' +Subject: FW: fyi +This is the paper - see below. +cdm +Original Message----- +From: Toiv, Nora F +Sent: Thursday, July 01, 2010 12:15 PM +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Subject: RE: fyi +Maariv: Hebrew language daily tabloid +http://en.wikipedia.ordwiki/Maariv +Original Message +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Thursday, July 01, 2010 11:54 AM +To: Toiv, Nora F +Subject: FW: fyi +What paper is this from? +Original Message-- +From: H [mailto:HDR22@clintonemail.com] +Sent: Thursday, July 01, 2010 11:09 AM +To: Mills, Cheryl D; Sullivan, Jacob .1 +Subject: Fw: fyi +Let's discuss. +Original Message -- +From: sbwhoeop +To: H +Cc: cheryl.m ills + +Maariv: Netanyahu won't meet Clinton; 'sources' say she ""isn't relevant"" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769242 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769242 Date: 08/31/2015 +Didi Remez I July 1, 2010 at 15:25 I Categories: Diplomacy + I URL: http://wp.me/pHIQV-Ep +Do they honestly think that publicizing a quote like this, on record or off, works to their advantage? +Israeli diplomatic [euphemism for Prime Minister's Office -- DR] sources said: ""Clinton isn't relevant and is out of +the circle of influence.

In order to bolster that impression, the two leaders will meet the media together and will be +photographed. As opposed to the previous time, Netanyahu will also be put up at Blair House, the official White House +guesthouse, and not at a hotel. +That said, officials in Washington are waiting apprehensively for the answers that Netanyahu will provide in the +course of the meeting, which is expected to address the transition from the proximity talks that are at an impasse to +direct negotiations. Obama, apparently, will demand that Netanyahu agree to extend the construction freeze in Judea +and Samaria beyond the September 26 expiration date in hope of securing PA Chairman Abu Mazen's consent to begin +direct talks with Israel.

Their bosses back in Washington were mortified when media blogs picked up the musings of +Alec Ross and Jared Cohen on Twitter about which Syrian cafes serve the greatest frappuccino (Kalamoon +University) and their challenge to the Syrian telecom minister for a cake-eating contest (called ""Creative Diplomacy."") +Creative, indeed. +It was a mild, but unfortunate distraction from what was widely considered an otherwise productive mission. The +delegation of senior executives, from tech heavyweights like Microsoft, Cisco Systems and Dell, met with Syrian +President Bashar al-Assad and other officials, as well as businessmen, civil society groups and academics battling their +government's tight-fisted control on the Internet. +The visit illustrated both the opportunities and the landmines Hillary Clinton's State Department has to navigate as it +logs into the digital age. +In Foggy Bottom, one needs to be fired up about being wired up. +Blogging and tweeting are now part of every diplomat's job description. At any given moment you can find someone like +the top official on Latin America tweeting in Spanish about his latest trip to Peru, or Secretary Clinton herself posting +podcasts on the State Department website and soliciting questions from the public on the State Department's blog, +Dipnote. +Beneath the web atmospherics is what Ross, Clinton's ""innovation"" +guru, calls ""21st century statecraft."" +Ross, a 38-year-old former technology adviser to the Obama campaign, and his partner in crime, Jared Cohen, a 28-year- +old author on genocide, youth and jihad who joined the State Department during the Bush administration, are at the +forefront of a new push by Clinton to use technology and social media as a diplomatic tool. Since taking office, Clinton +has made the spread of information technology and Internet freedom a cornerstone of her foreign policy, hoping both +will serve as catalysts for spreading democracy. +It used to be one of the biggest carrots the State Department could dangle before a country was a visit by the secretary +of state. Now it is a delegation of Silicon Valley heavyweights led by Ross and Cohen, which might include executives +from Microsoft, Google or Facebook. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769255 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769255 Date: 08/31/2015 +Since the Obama administration took office, they have led delegations with executives from tech giants such as Google, +Facebook and Twitter to Iraq, Russia and Mexico with some tangible results. In Iraq, Google created a project to make +digital copies of 14,000 antiquities in Iraq's National Museum. And in Mexico, the delegation helped develop a network +for Mexicans to report drug-related crimes by cell phone. +The visit to Syria came as the Obama administration takes baby steps toward engagement with that nation. The United +States had not had an ambassador in Damascus for five years and the administration's efforts to fill that post have been +stymied by Congress. +The U.S. delegation was requested by President Assad himself earlier this year in meetings with senior U.S. officials. The +United States hopes playing to Assad's desire to modernize his economy and stated willingness for better diplomatic and +trade ties with the Obama administration could drive a wedge between Syria and Iran, its closest ally. +Moreover, the United States hopes facilitating the flow of information into Syria will create a more open political climate +there. While in Syria, the delegation was surprised to find many young entrepreneurs with a widely different attitude +about the outside world and a desire to network into it, including one young woman who, during a session with the +deputy IT minister, looked him straight in the eye and asked for more access to the internet. +""Syria's population is going to double in the next 17 years,"" Cohen said. ""And young people in Syria are going to become +increasingly digital and connected or increasingly isolated. It is in our interest to see they are digital and connected."" +Strict U.S. sanctions against Syria for its support for terrorist groups in Lebanon, Iraq and the Palestinian territories ban +the sale of most technology to Syrian markets, but the White House does have waiver authority to sell certain products +to Syria, and the purpose of the trip, in part, was to help facilitate American technology companies to enter the Syrian +market. +The Obama administration has eased exports of certain telecommunication products in countries where they were once +banned, including Cuba, Iran, Sudan and China, out of fears repressive regimes would use them to oppress their people. +""We are not naive,"" Ross said. ""... Syria says it needs this technology for it's economic development. We understand +that, but we were very careful about the companies we selected for this delegation. +We won't support technology being reverse-engineered."" +The Syrian government has blamed the sanctions for its economic stagnation. But the executives, whose companies +have a combined market value of close to a half a trillion dollars, delivered a blunt message to the regime in Damascus -- +one which can't be delivered credibly by the US government: Our companies won't do business in a country without +internet freedom or protections for intellectual property. +""They painted a picture of what Syria could have,"" Cohen said of the delegation. ""What they could invest in if Syria took +certain steps."" +During the visit both Cisco and Microsoft raised the possibility of training in Syria under the right conditions. +As a result of the visit, the Syrians pledged to pass an e-commerce law that would provide safeguards against +government censorship or infiltration of internet sites, something the Obama administration had pushed for. But U.S. +officials made clear further steps would be based on Syria's actions on loosening the information chokehold, rather than +its promises. Ahmed Salkini, a spokesman for the Syrian Embassy in Washington, said his government is dedicated to +""creating an environment conducive for the work of IT companies and hopes to pass the e-commerce law ""in the very +near future"" +Salkini said the Syrian government found the delegation was successful in scoping opportunities for future cooperation. +""We constantly encourage private sector interaction between the U.S. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769255 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769255 Date: 08/31/2015 +and Syria,"" he said. But he added, ""We think the only way for this type of cooperation to succeed is with a lack of +governmental interferences and lack of political agenda from both sides."" +This month Ross and Cohen will lead a delegation to Colombia and later this year, it's on to India. +They are a couple of virtual and diplomatic soul mates, virtually attached at the hip and finishing each other's sentences. +Both have become Twitterati (celebrities on Twitter) in their own right, as they tweet their way around the world +spreading the gospel of 21st century statecraft. Ross has some 287,000 followers on Twitter, while Cohen -- who gained +notoriety last year when he asked Twitter to delay scheduled maintenance to allow the Iranian opposition to continue to +use it to organize after the disputed election -- has about 305,000. +They are the public face of an effort at the State Department to wire the unwired. Clinton recently told a group of +Russian civil society groups visiting Washington, ""We have a great team of really dedicated young people -- primarily +young people -- who care deeply about connecting people up. And I'm very proud of the work they're doing."" +If they have a corner on the 21st century statecraft market now, it won't be for long. Recently Ross trained 50 European +ambassadors on how to implement the concept in their own countries. His goal, he says, is to create a community in +which countries can share their technology innovations among each other. For example Kenya, a pioneer in mobile +banking, could help spread the concept to its neighbors and beyond. +After their Syrian adventures in Twitterville, Ross and Cohen were advised to continue to use the technology, but avoid +the minutiae. +Still, State Department officials believe the digital duo is good for business, drawing in a new generation of individuals +interested in U.S. foreign policy. +""What they do has tremendous value,"" said Assistant Secretary P.J. +Crowley, the State Department's spokesman. ""Whatever they put in their tweets, they have 600,000 Twitters followers +that are now connected in some way to the State Department. And I will take that to the bank."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769255 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4954,C05769258,STARTEGIC COMMUNICATIONS,H,"McHale, Judith A",105,2010-07-02T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0086/DOC_0C05769258/C05769258.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,"McHale, Judith A ","DiMartino, Kitty; Sullivan, Jacob J; Mills, Cheryl D","Friday, July 2, 2010 8:56 AM",F-2014-20439,C05769258,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Greetings from Nairobi.

This outstanding jazz +ensemble delighted hundreds of people in Mali through concerts and many thousands more +through feature programming on nationwide radio and TV outlets. During stops in +Yamoussoukro, Tiassele, and Abidjan, the group conducted participatory workshops and +discussions for nearly 475 students. +The ensemble's packed schedule included workshops at the Bamako School for the Blind +as well as music and high schools throughout the capital; an outdoor concert for 500 in a town in +southwest Mali; and, a joint performance with Grammy-nominated Malian artist Bassekou +Kouyate. The Trio members' willingness to provide free music lessons during their downtime +deeply impressed Malian audiences. Perhaps the greatest cultural exchange occurred in Abidjan +when group member, Gilad Dobrecky, was presented with an ""ahoko,"" an African percussion +instrument, and to the surprise and enjoyment of the audience seamlessly incorporated it into the +trio's repertoire. +We are thrilled to have the opportunity to showcase America's accomplished and talented +artists through our cultural projects.

It would be very cheap, could get started very soon—say mid-February, could be linked to +other distribution networks (food/medical supplies), and would be quite organic and grassroots. I'll call it the Griot +education project (in the west African tradition of a streetside storytellers). +Context/Understanding: +Looks like there are a few hundred thousand kids in Port-au-Prince who pretty soon will be (already are) sitting around +day-to-day w/ more or less nothing to do. Their schools got destroyed, their neighborhoods in rough shape. These are +young kids who would be best served if they could get out of the house for a few hours a day (possibly even freeing up +parents to do rebuilding or other work), and not spend their time getting caught up in crime, or desperately searching +through rubble for a mal to eat... and get back to school, and engage their naturally curious brains. +The goal of this program is to immediately give them a place to go, a chance to interface with an energetic educator, and +at least expose them to relevant, skill-enhancing academic work that engages them while we rebuild education +infrastructure. It also would likely get them 1 meal each day, and if needed a way to get referred for immediate medical +attention. +Griot Educators: +We recruit and equip a cadre of teachers who will go out into communities with a set of portable materials each moming- +educators who after a few days will find a place to teach, and will have attracted class of students. This is modeled off the +street artist/storyteller. +We flyer the neighborhoods, advertising teaching positions. We work w/ whoever we can find who can help us identify +people who were good teachers prior to the earthquake and/or people who have the abilty to attract kids (appropriately). +We select teachers. We agree to pay them a daily/weekly stipend. We want people who know their communities, who +don't need a lot of direction, who will take a cart full of educational materials, find a corner, or abandoned building and +start teaching to whoever shows up. People who will do anything to get some young kids to try to read or do some math +problems or sing songs and write poetry... +Education Supply Centers +We set up education supply centers and a distribution system. Each center is staffed by small team-1 lead person is an +education-leader, others are admin and support. Griots come the center in the morning, they get a day's worth of +educational materials (we select it, we photocopy it, we give them 50 pencils, etc.). We agree to send over 50 meals two +hours later. Each Griot wheels his portable classroom to his/her spot and sets up shop... Kids come, and he/she +teaches. It builds momentum and kids get off the streets, out of their homes and come to the morning 'school' site. Kids +who come get a meal. Maybe we end up w/ 3 tiers of Griots-1 who works w/ 4, 5, 6 year olds, 1 with 7, 8, 9 year olds, 1 +with 10, 11, 12 year olds. Each one picks up a packet of material that is more or less appropriate for that age group. All +this is incredibly flexible and fluid. Maybe one morning session and then an after lunch session. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769288 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769288 Date: 08/31/2015 +The education supply centers are warehouses we set up. They have copiers, lots of paper, basic school supplies, some +art supplies, etc. (Over time, maybe people donate a bunch of books or magazines, etc—they become ways for artists, +volunteers, entertainers to connect w/ kids, as well.) Each morning a group of Griots go to their supply centers and pick +up materials, and fill up their cart... and roll down the block, or blocks and set up their 'school' for the day. Maybe someone +wants to donate a bunch of art supplies, or harmonicas—who knows—whatever it takes to get kids to show up and do +some academic and enrichment activities. These education supply centers likely get linked to other distribution hubs. This +way they can get linked w/ food or other supplies. +Longer-term/setting the stage for longer-term ramp up +Over time, some of the Griots will end up running little schools that start to feel permanent. Kids will bring in chairs and +stools...maybe some of the teaching material ends up staying at the school sites, and the end up as likely places for folks +to build/rebuild schools. But in the near term, the 'school' is whatever spot the Griot goes to where he/she can attract a +cadre of kids—and the good news is that can be almost anywhere. +This program is cheap -- as costly as it is to pay stipends to the Griots, plus the cost of supplies, delivery, and some +human capital to man the supply centers, develop/acquire high interest, high educational value material. I think quite +cheap, and could easily be costed out once we knew about how much we need to pay a Griot for a day of teaching. +It also gets some folks working, immediately. +Some Griots would take stipend and not teach; some wouldn't do it well; some would pawn off the food/biscuits...But we +could weed much of that out and w/ this sort of approach, you don't let a few bad apples spoil the larger program (or fear +of them stop it from getting started). This program is about planting the seeds for the future schools to come, about +getting young kids off streets and stoops and into a fun/learning environment, about empowering talented teacher-artists +to go out into their communities armed w/ some basic materials, their good will, their creativity (and a paycheck)—together +the kids and the Griots will find local places to call and claim as their schools. +And while this is going on, we have time to build out infrastructure (human capital, facilities, instructional/curricular +materials) for more robust ramp-up over time. +Per usual, feel free to ignore or pass on. +dd +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769288 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4971,C05769292,H: EARLY REVIEW.

Federal Elections Commission, the landmark case that +allows corporations and unions to spend limitless amounts of money on presidential and congressional political +campaigns. A majority of large businesses are now owned by foreign entities, and this means international corporations +could pour tons of money into the United States political scene, potentially swaying the political climate. +The biggest questions with this ruling is the scope of the term ""corporation,"" says Edward Foley, law professor at the Ohio +State University College of Law and director of the election-law program. Does the high court want this decision to apply +to foreign corporations as well as domestic ones, he ponders? The truth is, the court didn't make a decision one way or +the other. +Foley best explains the potential issues by talking about the electronic, video, and communication giant, Sony. The +corporation is headquartered in Japan, but a large number of its shareholders reside in the United States. In fact, people +can even buy and trade Sony's stock on the New York Stock Exchange. The issue is whether this corporation, with strong +ties to a foreign country and the United States, should be permitted to independently contribute money to presidential and +congressional campaigns. +The court sought to expand First Amendment protection for corporations, but did it really mean to promote the free flow of +ideas from Russian or Chinese corporations, Foley asks? Justice John Pau! Stevens focused on the same concerns in his +dissenting opinion. The majority's position ""would appear to afford the same protection to multinational corporations +controlled by foreigners as to individual Americans,"" he writes. +This afternoon, President Obama asked Congress to ""develop a forceful response"" to the ruling. But with Congress +juggling so many other important issues, it's unlikely that a change will be made in the immediate future. This could mean +that foreign cash could be supporting political candidates in next year's congressional midterm elections.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769333 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: sbwhoeop +Sent: Friday, January 22, 2010 3:42 PM +To: +Subject: H: May head your way, you might be asked, and you might develop a response give +that many firms are owned by nations.

A majority of large businesses are now owned by foreign entities, and this means international corporations +could pour tons of money into the United States political scene, potentially swaying the political climate. +The biggest questions with this ruling is the scope of the term ""corporation,"" says Edward Foley, law professor at the Ohio +State University College of Law and director of the election-law program. Does the high court want this decision to apply +to foreign corporations as well as domestic ones, he ponders? The truth is, the court didn't make a decision one way or +the other. +Foley best explains the potential issues by talking about the electronic, video, and communication giant, Sony. The +corporation is headquartered in Japan, but a large number of its shareholders reside in the United States. In fact, people +can even buy and trade Sony's stock on the New York Stock Exchange. The issue is whether this corporation, with strong +ties to a foreign country and the United States, should be permitted to independently contribute money to presidential and +congressional campaigns. +The court sought to expand First Amendment protection for corporations, but did it really mean to promote the free flow of +ideas from Russian or Chinese corporations, Foley asks? Justice John Pau! Stevens focused on the same concerns in his +dissenting opinion. The majority's position ""would appear to afford the same protection to multinational corporations +controlled by foreigners as to individual Americans,"" he writes. +This afternoon, President Obama asked Congress to ""develop a forceful response"" to the ruling. But with Congress +juggling so many other important issues, it's unlikely that a change will be made in the immediate future. This could mean +that foreign cash could be supporting political candidates in next year's congressional midterm elections. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769333 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4983,C05769336,OUT OF OFFICE RE: FW: NEWS REPORT ON MISSING KIDS IN HAITI,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-01-22T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0060/DOC_0C05769336/C05769336.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Out of Office Re: Fw: news report on missing kids in Haiti,H,Cheryl Mills,,"Friday, January 22, 2010 5:26 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769336,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"I am traveling overseas and only have sporadic access to my email.

The rise of +digital technology has presented both challenges in the form of massive copyright theft and innovative opportunities for +filmmakers to share their work around the world. +Through his leadership, Glickman helped raise awareness of the economic consequences of copyright theft. He also worked +with a broad labor and business coalition to secure passage of the Pro-IP Act, which increased resources and enforcement to +protect intellectual prooerty. And he has vigorously promoted a myriad of legitimate ways for consumers to view movies and +TV shows on the Internet. +Glickman also helped lead the effort to win passage of legislation banning camcording in movie theaters throughout the +United States and around the world.

The Government of Indonesia (G01) responded to the Tsunami by issuing a series of government decrees, +and immediately organized both overview and relief efforts to ensure a rational and coordinated +response. The first task was to produce a Damage and Loss Assessment (DLA). The DLA was followed by +a more detailed Master Plan for Rehabilitation and Reconstruction (MPRR). The MPRR provided in-depth +sector plans, spatial planning, the governance and supervision arrangements of finances with +considerable attention to how to avoid or minimize corruption. The process behind the MPRR was +consultative, with a wide range of local stakeholders and public offices being heard. The MPRR was +presented on 26 March, only 3 months after the Tsunami. +2. The MPRR was to form the basis for a general three-stage strategy. The Relief phase was originally set to +six months, but was then reduced to three: January- March 2005. The Rehabilitation phase is to run for +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769379 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769379 Date: 08/31/2015 +about 21 months, through December 2006, and the Reconstruction phase from July 2006 through +December 2009. The MPRR provides a well defined phasing of interventions. +3. The objectives for the Relief efforts were humanitarian relief: rescue; food and medicine; emergency +infrastructure and temporary shelter; and burying the dead. The Rehabilitation phase is to restore +services to minimum level: public services; economic facilities; banking and financial institutions; trauma +treatments; secure land rights; law and order; and temporary shelter. Finally, Reconstruction is to rebuild +the region: rebuilding the economy (production, trade and banking); the transportation, +telecommunications, and social and cultural systems; improving institutional capacity; and housing. +4. The Government set up a ministerial-level agency to manage the MPRR program from Aceh itself, the +Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Agency for Aceh and Nias. The BRR was formally established end April +2005 and became operational early May. The World Bank Board on 30 March 2005 formally established +the Multi-Donor Trust Fund (MDF) with a Steering Committee comprised of BRR, GOI, donors and civil +society. Having a credible local coordinators was key to success. +5. The EC channels nearly 93% of its funds through the MDF, while only 2.5% of USD 400 million from the +US goes to the MDF. While payments into the fund were slow, disbursements out of it were to begin +with even slower. By October 2005, project agreements for about USD 200 million had been signed, but +only USD 3 million had actually been disbursed. Disbursements picked up the pace thereafter. The delay +was caused by two principal impediments: first, donors were quick to pledge funds, but getting all the +exact written agreements in place took time. This points to the need for donors to be flexible regarding +formal agreements, and accept simple, generic paragraphs that can contribute to speedy resolution of +slightly differing phrasings and concerns. Second, the processing time for project approval and +implementation was a concern. Since the MDF was to have funded projects on-budget, they had to be +implemented by government institutions. This crated bottlenecks. +6. Smaller donors joined because they wished to support the reconstruction efforts in Aceh but do not have +own capacity and often not strong views on how best to pursue this. They want the Bank to assume +fiduciary responsibilities for the funds in a high-risk environment, and also to take a lead in ensuring that +the funds go to prioritized activities. The MDF is thus seen a well-managed bank account with some paid- +for administrative services. However, the all-inclusive Steering Committee made membership large and +to some extent unwieldy, and forced it to discuss both policy and operational issues. +7. The Multi Donor Fund Secretariat has developed an Outreach Strategy that includes regular radio talk +shows, field visits to meet and discuss with beneficiaries and communication through advertisements as +well as a telephone hotline. +8. MDF received praise for engaging the Government of Indonesia (G01) in policy dialogue. The MDF is thus +an entry point for engaging on conditions for sustainability, relevance and impact. +9. Because the MDF does not accept strict ear marking of donor contributions — though it does allow for +preference indications — it means that the funds are freely available for programming according to the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769379 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769379 Date: 08/31/2015 +criteria and priorities that the MDF agrees to. Given strong GOI participation, the MDF is seen as the +most successful instrument for harmonization and coordination in an environment that has been +criticized for a lack of coordination. The MDF's Mid Term Review conducted in 2008-2009 found that the +MDF had made a positive contribution to harmonizing donor efforts and to increasing the effectiveness +and efficiency of the reconstruction effort. +10. The MDF did not sufficiently engage the private sector and did not have a coherent job creation strategy. +The MDF lacked executive rights, but GOI and BRR are credited with leveraging a decisive response. +From: Curtis, Meghann A [mailto:CurtisMA@state.gov] +Sent: 22 January 2010 16:27 +To: Jean-Louis Warnholz +Subject: RE: What is the deadline on Aceh Fund brief +No official deadline.

The Government of Indonesia (G01) responded to the Tsunami by issuing a series of +government decrees, and immediately organized both overview and relief efforts to +ensure a rational and coordinated response. The first task was to produce a Damage and +Loss Assessment (DLA). The DLA was followed by a more detailed Master Plan for +Rehabilitation and Reconstruction (MPRR). The MPRR provided in-depth sector plans, +spatial planning, the governance and supervision arrangements of finances with +considerable attention to how to avoid or minimize corruption. The process behind the +MPRR was consultative, with a wide range of local stakeholders and public offices being +heard. The MPRR was presented on 26 March, only 3 months after the Tsunami. +2. The MPRR was to form the basis for a general three-stage strategy. The Relief phase was +originally set to six months, but was then reduced to three: January- March 2005. The +Rehabilitation phase is to run for about 21 months, through December 2006, and the +Reconstruction phase from July 2006 through December 2009. The MPRR provides a +well defined phasing of interventions. +3. The objectives for the Relief efforts were humanitarian relief: rescue; food and +medicine; emergency infrastructure and temporary shelter; and burying the dead. The +Rehabilitation phase is to restore services to minimum level: public services; economic +facilities; banking and financial institutions; trauma treatments; secure land rights; law +and order; and temporary shelter. Finally, Reconstruction is to rebuild the region: +rebuilding the economy (production, trade and banking); the transportation, +telecommunications, and social and cultural systems; improving institutional capacity; +and housing. +4. The Government set up a ministerial-level agency to manage the MPRR program from +Aceh itself, the Rehabilitation and Reconstruction Agency for Aceh and Nias. The BRR +was formally established end April 2005 and became operational early May. The World +Bank Board on 30 March 2005 formally established the Multi-Donor Trust Fund (MDF) +with a Steering Committee comprised of BRR, GOI, donors and civil society. Having a +credible local coordinators was key to success. +5. The EC channels nearly 93% of its funds through the MDF, while only 2.5% of USD 400 +million from the US goes to the MDF. While payments into the fund were slow, +disbursements out of it were to begin with even slower. By October 2005, project +agreements for about USD 200 million had been signed, but only USD 3 million had +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769380 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769380 Date: 08/31/2015 +actually been disbursed. Disbursements picked up the pace thereafter. The delay was +caused by two principal impediments: first, donors were quick to pledge funds, but +getting all the exact written agreements in place took time. This points to the need for +donors to be flexible regarding formal agreements, and accept simple, generic +paragraphs that can contribute to speedy resolution of slightly differing phrasings and +concerns. Second, the processing time for project approval and implementation was a +concern. Since the MDF was to have funded projects on-budget, they had to be +implemented by government institutions. This crated bottlenecks. +6. Smaller donors joined because they wished to support the reconstruction efforts in +Aceh but do not have own capacity and often not strong views on how best to pursue +this. They want the Bank to assume fiduciary responsibilities for the funds in a high-risk +environment, and also to take a lead in ensuring that the funds go to prioritized +activities. The MDF is thus seen a well-managed bank account with some paid-for +administrative services. However, the all-inclusive Steering Committee made +membership large and to some extent unwieldy, and forced it to discuss both policy and +operational issues. +7. The Multi Donor Fund Secretariat has developed an Outreach Strategy that includes +regular radio talk shows, field visits to meet and discuss with beneficiaries and +communication through advertisements as well as a telephone hotline. +8. MDF received praise for engaging the Government of Indonesia (G01) in policy dialogue. +The MDF is thus an entry point for engaging on conditions for sustainability, relevance +and impact. +9. Because the MDF does not accept strict ear marking of donor contributions — though it +does allow for preference indications — it means that the funds are freely available for +programming according to the criteria and priorities that the MDF agrees to. Given +strong GOI participation, the MDF is seen as the most successful instrument for +harmonization and coordination in an environment that has been criticized for a lack of +coordination. The MDF's Mid Term Review conducted in 2008-2009 found that the MDF +had made a positive contribution to harmonizing donor efforts and to increasing the +effectiveness and efficiency of the reconstruction effort. +10. The MDF did not sufficiently engage the private sector and did not have a coherent job +creation strategy. The MDF lacked executive rights, but GOI and BRR are credited with +leveraging a decisive response. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769380 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +4998,C05769381,INR'S LATEST MEDIA ANALYSIS: AMERICA: DON'T BLAME U.S. FOR TAKING LEAD IN HAITI,H,MillsCD@state.gov,32,2010-01-23T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0060/DOC_0C05769381/C05769381.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: INR's Latest Media Analysis: Americas: Don't Blame U.S. for Taking Lead in Haiti,,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Saturday, January 23, 2010 8:38 AM",F-2014-20439,C05769381,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769381 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Saturday, January 23, 2010 8:38 AM +To: +Subject: FW: INR's Latest Media Analysis: Americas: Don't Blame U.S. for Taking Lead in Haiti +Attachments: 1-22 Americas--Don't Blame U.S. for Taking Lead in Haiti.pdf +From: McLean, Andrew J On Behalf Of Media, Reaction 1 +Sent: Friday, January 22, 2010 2:34 PM +Subject: INR's Latest: Media Analysis: Americas: Don't Blame U.S. for Taking Lead in Haiti +Attached please find the latest INR media analysis: +Americas: Don't Blame U.S. for Taking Lead in Haiti +(January 22, 2010) Most Western Hemisphere media commend US. relief efforts as ""sincere,"" with some rejecting +allegations of US. imperialist intent.

Second, the processing time for project approval and implementation was a +concern. Since the MDF was to have funded projects on-budget, they had to be +implemented by government institutions. This crated bottlenecks. +6. Smaller donors joined because they wished to support the reconstruction efforts in +Aceh but do not have own capacity and often not strong views on how best to pursue +this. They want the Bank to assume fiduciary responsibilities for the funds in a high-risk +environment, and also to take a lead in ensuring that the funds go to prioritized +activities. The MDF is thus seen a well-managed bank account with some paid-for +administrative services. However, the all-inclusive Steering Committee made +membership large and to some extent unwieldy, and forced it to discuss both policy and +operational issues. +7. The Multi Donor Fund Secretariat has developed an Outreach Strategy that includes +regular radio talk shows, field visits to meet and discuss with beneficiaries and +communication through advertisements as well as a telephone hotline. +8. MDF received praise for engaging the Government of Indonesia (G01) in policy dialogue. +The MDF is thus an entry point for engaging on conditions for sustainability, relevance +and impact. +9. Because the MDF does not accept strict ear marking of donor contributions — though it +does allow for preference indications — it means that the funds are freely available for +programming according to the criteria and priorities that the MDF agrees to. Given +strong GOI participation, the MDF is seen as the most successful instrument for +harmonization and coordination in an environment that has been criticized for a lack of +coordination. The MDF's Mid Term Review conducted in 2008-2009 found that the MDF +had made a positive contribution to harmonizing donor efforts and to increasing the +effectiveness and efficiency of the reconstruction effort. +10. The MDF did not sufficiently engage the private sector and did not have a coherent job +creation strategy. The MDF lacked executive rights, but GOI and BRR are credited with +leveraging a decisive response. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769392 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5009,C05769393,H: FYI: ANY FOREIGN NATION OR LEADER WITH A FRONT COMPANY BECOMES A PERSON UNDER US LAW.

These are states +that do not provide (1) accountable and effective security and social protection; (2) predictable and enforced +laws that are generally accepted as legitimate; (3) revenue collection and management of external aid to +ensure the delivery of basic social and economic services to society; (4) mechanisms of accountability of +state authorities to society. +These states are vulnerable to both internal and external shocks and thus their populations are likely to +suffer the most from the vagaries of climate change and the impact of droughts and flooding, regional +insecurity, and regional and international economic crises. They are marked by low food security, high crime +rates and high youth unemployment and are susceptible to the mobilisation efforts of entrepreneurs of +violence of all sorts. In all these respects they represent the weakest links in the global community. +The causes of state fragility are varied and historically and context specific, so action by the international +community needs to be based on an understanding of the particularities of each fragile situation. While not +all states marked by poverty and underdevelopment are fragile, almost all fragile states are poor and +underdeveloped, so international action needs to be concerned with the reduction of poverty and the creation +of wealth in these societies. +The past half century of experience underscores that reforming the institutions and organisations of the state +in fragile states is a decadal, possibly even generational challenge. The international community must +consider what needs to be done today or tomorrow to create the stability and breathing space that will allow +these longer term efforts to take root and flourish +In recent years the international community has increasingly recognised that to ensure a prosperous and +secure global community there is a need to increase foreign assistance to fragile states and to support +processes of state-building. We follow the OECD in recognizing that state-building is ""an endogenous +process to enhance capacity, institutions and legitimacy of the state driven by state-society relations"". +Important analytical work on understanding the conditions of fragility and the requirements of external +assistance to state-building has been undertaken by the OECD, the World Bank and the International +Monetary Fund and by individual bilateral development agencies.

Often states are heavily dependent on external resources to finance such services and the +challenge is to put these to good use without undermining incentives to raise domestic revenue that can +eventually replace external assistance. Donors in a hurry to see that funds are spent effectively often +channel them outside state systems, which can undermine or pre-empt the consolidation of viable and +accountable state organisations. At the same time, for understandable reasons, donors are cautious about +budget support, where blank cheques are written to governments without assurances that accountability +standards will be met. +The existing tools of development assistance, however appropriate for delivering aid to poor but stable and +relatively well functioning states, are not adequate for confronting the conditions of state fragility: +• where people have a deep distrust of states +• where states are often weak and repressive +• where societies nonetheless have considerable resilience +The costs of donor mistakes in delivering aid are high everywhere, but in fragile states the costs can be +catastrophic, leading to state collapse, violence and in the worst cases regional instability and war. +The existence of fragile states compels us to look for imaginative solutions. +An innovative approach will ensure: +• Mutual responsibility between donors and states in spending public resources +• Accountability to local communities in how public resources are spent +• Building upon existing local capacities and drawing on capacities at the regional and national levels +• Delivering resources in ways perceived as equitable and iust +• Long term commitment by donors that matches the long term task of overcoming fragility +Objectives: +A New Aid Delivery Mechanism would: +1. Allow for domestic resources to be collected and donor moneys channelled according to a set of +accountability mechanisms that would be transparently measured and reported upon; and +2. Key policies and services to be implemented through ""National Programs"" that would implement +specific functions at the appropriate level of governance, through a system of implementation within +state systems, thereby avoiding the creation of parallel organisations outside the state and instead +contributing to developing state systems that can eventually replace external aid with domestic +revenue; +3. Ensure that representative organisations in society have the opportunity and means to participate in, +monitor and supervise the exercise of power and dispensation of public resources. +Means: +1. A set of Accountability Standards across the key state functions should be agreed, and the state +required to report on and make transparent all revenues, procurement and licensing decisions, asset +disposal and acquisition, budgets, expenditures, accounts and audits. +2. The integrity of spending would be guaranteed through a dual-oversight agency where responsibility +is shared between state authorities and external funders. A range of instruments could be deployed, +including IMF/ World Bank monitoring, trust funds that pool donor resources against these +standards, and linking of use of the sovereign guarantee to a government's meeting those +standards. GEMAP in Liberia provides one example. +3. A set of National Programs should be designed and launched through a partnership of government, +civil society and international oversight, whereby the ministry provides the policy framework; the trust +fund and / or domestic revenue provides the funding flow; monitoring and oversight by the civil +service in partnership with international representatives; and implementation by the combination of +communities, private sector, NGOs and civil service appropriate to the context and the available +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769410 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769410 Date: 08/31/2015 +capacities.

Considerations of equity demand +that a minimum provision be available to all citizens regardless of ability to pay. But if provision +is through non-market mechanisms how are resources to be allocated and what are the incentives +for effort? There is no universally ideal organizational solution to these problems and approaches +differ considerably between countries. +African governments inherited a common model of public service provision from colonial times. +That model was rooted in how British and French governments were themselves providing +public services during the 1950s. For the following half-century African governments struggled +to make this model work. In many of them, and most particularly in those with the social stresses +associated with being post-conflict, that model has proved to be inappropriate. It is high time to +try delivery systems which are better suited to the local context. +The Inherited Model +The 1950s European model was for a government ministry to take responsibility for an entire +service, such as health or education. Such ministries combined the potentially distinct functions +of planning, resource allocation, on-the-ground service delivery, and evaluation. Further, they +held a national monopoly over the provision of the service. +African governments tended to assume that this was the appropriate way for a developed society +to deliver public services, so that it was the system to which they should aspire. In fact, in many +respects this organizational approach was not an encompassing model for a developed society, +but was rooted in its highly unusual time, namely the aftermath of the Second World War. One +legacy of the war was a belief in planning. In wartime Britain national planning had been +successful and it was now applied to the problem of service delivery. Delivering social services +through centralized planning requires information: the war had taught the civil service how to +gather and marshal it for military objectives and initially this worked well for service provision. +Another legacy of the war was a strong sense of nationhood and public-spiritedness. This spirit +resolved the problem of motivating public sector workers: they had internalized the norms of +serving the society and so did not need either close monitoring or large financial incentives. The +combination of information-guided central planning and a motivated workforce was highly cost- +effective. +In ideal conditions the European model of the 1950s is by far the most cost-effective system. +Both post-war Britain and modern Scandinavia met these conditions. Scandinavia combines a +self-motivated public sector workforce with a comprehensive system of centralized social +information. But these advantages are underpinned by an unusually homogenous population with +a strong sense of national identity and a belief in social equity. In Britain, neither aspect of the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 +system proved to be sustainable. Gradually, the helpful norms of public sector workers eroded. +For example, after three decades British nurses abandoned their policy of not threatening to +strike. As service delivery became more complex, it became more information-intensive and so +less much more demanding for the command-and-control approach that had worked well for +military objectives. As conditions became less suited to the 1950s model it became unwieldy. +Ministries grew far beyond the size originally envisaged: for example, the National Health +Service became the largest employer in Europe. In response, reliance upon self-motivation +through internalized norms has gradually been replaced through ad hoc reforms by increasingly +detailed targets combined with high levels of pay. The system of central planning has been +partially replaced by resource allocation that is guided by simulated 'internal' markets. +Why the Inherited Model is often unsuited to Fragile States +Fragile states are far removed from the conditions in which the 1950s European model works +well. Public sector employees have long ceased to internalize the norms of public-spiritedness. +Further, social information is neither detailed nor up-to-date. Unfortunately, in the absence of +these conditions the model works extremely badly. Most workers are not self-motivated to serve +the public interest but the system lacks the means either to rebuild the norms of public service, or +to motivate workers with financial incentives. +Prevailing norms of public service +In the fragile states the prevailing norms of public sector workers are radically different from +those in Scandinavia. People are more heterogeneous and conflicted and so have a weaker sense +of the national public interest. Shirking, as instanced by high rates of absenteeism, is common, as +is minor corruption. Often the collapse in the norm of public service was due to the erosion in +salaries. If public sector workers are not paid enough to live then they have no choice but to +abuse their positions for personal gain. However, once the new norms of self-interest become +established they become very difficult to change: the new pattern of behaviour is an equilibrium +in which the conduct of each worker is rational given the expected conduct of other workers. +Prevailing dysfunctional norms are thereby collectively self-reinforcing. For example, many +public service jobs depend upon teams so that the return to individual effort depends upon that of +others. Individually each worker is locked into prevailing norms unless there is a credible reason +to believe that the norms of other workers have changed. Large and coordinated changes in +norms of work among staff are very difficult for management to achieve. Simply reversing the +salary decline is unlikely to restore the norms of public service. The more likely outcome is that +what was a badly performing but low-cost delivery system is replaced by a badly performing but +more expensive delivery system. +Dysfunctional norms are passed on between generations of public sector workers. By its nature +public service tends to attract young people with a degree of idealism. For example, survey +evidence from Ethiopia shows that newly trained nurses enter the profession with a strong sense +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 +of public spiritedness. However, once placed into clinics where the prevailing norm is self- +interest over the next three years their initial public-spiritedness is replaced by the dysfunctional +norms of their elders. Hence, the current model of service delivery is repeatedly destroying the +asset of self-motivation in the young workforce. +Limited Alternatives to Self-Motivation +Even if workers have not internalized the norms of the organization, it may nevertheless be +possible to motivate them to good performance by means of financial incentives. However, the +1950s European model is ill-suited to this approach. Being within the civil service, the range of +financial rewards and penalties that can be deployed is extremely limited. Virtually everywhere +civil servants have very strong job security so that the threat of dismissal is not credible. +Demotion is very rare and constrained by cumbersome systems of appeal. Hence, the only scope +for incentives is through rewards. Even here the civil service is heavily constrained by the need +for perceived equity among staff and pay scales that are tied to seniority, age, and rank. In post- +conflict conditions these generic problems of discretionary rewards and penalties for civil +servants are further complicated by the history of conflict. In the contest for control of the state, +public sector employment comes to be regarded not merely as an input into service delivery, but +as a valued prize in itself. This leaves a legacy of pervasive suspicions that discretionary rewards +reflect patronage and favour rather than performance. The post-conflict imperative of achieving +perceived equity in public employment between rival political factions may make performance- +related incentives infeasible. +Even where incentives are politically feasible, they can only be effective to the extent that they +can be linked to observable aspects of performance. Yet in post-conflict conditions the +information needed to assess performance on public service delivery is simply not being +generated. This is partly due to the larger problems endemic to post-conflict situations such as +broken local administrations. But it is also itself an instance of the incentive problem: if +prevailing performance is generally poor, civil servants have an incentive not to collect timely +evidence by which it could be measured. Yet the same information that would be needed to +measure performance would also be needed for overall resource allocation through central +planning to be effective. Starved of information, central planning is blind and an easy prey to +crude political pressures. +The consequence for service delivery +The result is that the same system which in Scandinavia produces the best and most cost- +effective social services on earth, in African post-conflict conditions produces the worst. +Workers are motivated neither by internalized norms of public service, nor by financial +incentives. Central planning without information inevitably grossly misallocates resources. As a +result services are inevitably very bad. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 +Faced with a delivery system that is manifestly dysfunctional, donors starve it of finance. This +produces the very bad, but very inexpensive systems that prevail in the public sector in fragile +states. Without question, adequate social provision will require substantially more international +funding than has been provided to date. However, the root of the problem is not the lack of +funding, but the lack of a delivery system that could productively use enhanced funding. +Donor bypass of the state +Faced with the overwhelming case for responding to social needs, donors have usually resorted +to bypassing the state, channelling finance through NGOs and the UN agencies. This has +advantages and disadvantages. +Advantages of non-government provision +Unlike government provision, non-government provision is not a uniform model and there is +considerable variation. Two different approaches can both achieve good organizational +performance. One approach, typified by mission-run hospitals and schools, achieves good +performance by maintaining a high level of organizational commitment on the part of its +workers. Given the high intrinsic satisfaction from activities such as healing the sick and +teaching children, and the highly visible needs in post-conflict societies, it is possible to create +islands of self-motivation even where in the public sector norms of service have collapsed. The +other approach, typified by some for-profit organizations, achieves good performance by solving +the difficult problem of linking financial incentives to observable performance. In many aspects +of service delivery individual performance is not readily observable and so effective monitoring +is difficult. The two approaches are not easily combined and so tend to be alternatives. Norms of +self-motivation, or working for the common good, thrive on trust and equity among staff. In +contrast, the essence of addressing motivation by means of financial incentives is that trust is +replaced by monitoring, and equity is replaced by income differences based on differential +performance. Field evidence suggests that where strong financial incentives are introduced into +service delivery organizations norms of service and worker cohesion are undermined. +According to the type of service, the local context, and the personal characteristics of managers, +either approach can be more effective. However, while some non-government organizations +solve the service delivery problem by one or other of the above approaches, others fail. Some +rely upon trust but have unmotivated staff; others rely on financial incentives but monitor aspects +of behaviour which are not sufficiently related to performance. Hence, donors cannot tell simply +by observing the type of organization whether it is efficient. The implication is that by bypassing +the state donors will sometimes be financing organizations that are considerably more efficient, +but that there will be considerable variation. +Disadvantages of bypassing the state +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 +The most obvious drawback of donors bypassing the state is that, while unsustainable, it does not +lead to an exit strategy. The bypass of the state does not build state capacity and may further +undermine it. Yet it is acknowledged that the complete bypass cannot itself be the long-term +solution to service delivery. If the state is not involved in providing basic services to citizens it +will be very difficult for it to establish a claim to legitimacy in the eyes of its citizens. +The total bypass has a further serious drawback which donors are less willing to recognize: the +lack of coordination and continuity. The services funded by donors are usually localized and +often specific to a particular aspect of service delivery. Given this approach there is no +systematic scope for a nation-wide and sector-wide approach to resource allocation. Donor +financing of any particular service provider is likely to be temporary. Field staff are typically +rotated every three years and the priorities of individual donors change as ministers change. +Given the natural human inclination to make a difference, this is a recipe for continuous turmoil. +However, the most serious drawback is the lack of accountability to the ordinary people who are +the users of services. Generically, there are two mechanisms for such accountability: political +and commercial. By definition, as a result of the donor bypass of the state, political +accountability to users is not possible. The alternative of commercial accountability is dependent +upon donor financing of service providing agencies being conditional upon their observed +performance. However, other than for the most rudimentary aspects of performance, donors lack +the monitoring capacity with which to hold agencies to. account. +Public Service Authorities +An alternative to the 1950s model of the monopoly government ministry and the total bypass of +the state is to unbundle the functions that in the 1950s model are all performed by a single +ministry. Some of these functions are intrinsic to the responsibilities that a state should +undertake. For other functions the state can achieve its objectives better by purchasing the +function from other providers. Even in the most centralized and efficient of European states this +approach is now standard: for example, in France both blood-testing and ambulance services are +financed publicly but provided privately. +A Public Service Authority (PSA) is a design of public service delivery which may be +particularly appropriate for post-conflict conditions. It need not be merely a temporary measure: +it may evolve into a permanent organization much as Independent Revenue Authorities have +become permanent in many fragile states. Although all PSAs have some core features in +common, they can take many different forms. For example, at one extreme a single PSA could +have a national mandate for many different types of service, while at the other, each district +might have several PSAs, one for each type of service. Such choices should vary country-by- +country, according to local capacity. Here I focus on the core principles of a PSA rather than on +such choices. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 +A PSA is a public agency: it is an implementing agency of government but is independent of the +civil service, analogous to central banks and revenue authorities. While it is an agency of +government, its board of directors can include a minority of non-government appointees. In post- +conflict conditions these should include the main donor agencies and key components of civil +society. The primary purpose of such representation is to provide equal and unrestricted access to +information on the decisions and performance of the PSA for government, donors and civil +society. As a result, a PSA is structurally transparent. +The government ministries responsible for service provision have representation on the board of +the PSA and set policy guidelines by which the PSA must operate. For example, they may set +minimum standards of provision, and require the PSA to allocate resources so as to ensure +geographic equity. Ministries will also continue to provide state services directly. Since in post- +conflict conditions service provision is invariably inadequate, the PSA should constitute an +expansion in provision not a change in the management of existing services. Over time, if the +PSA-provided services proved to be better value that those directly provided by the ministries +then it would be a matter for the government to decide whether to reorganize the directly +provided services. +A PSA receives funds from donors and government for the purchase of services from primary +providers. Since the PSA is an implementing agency of government, the money allocated to the +PSA, including that from donors, appears in the government budget as an expenditure. Hence, +donor funding of services through the PSA is somewhat analogous to ring-fenced budget +support. +The PSA enters into contracts with primary service providing agencies but does not provide +services directly. This avoids a conflict of interest and focuses the PSA exclusively on +negotiating and monitoring the performance of the primary providers. These providers can be +NG0s, local communities, local governments, or private for-profit organizations. Ideally, the +PSA will experiment with multiple channels of provision for the same service to maximize the +scope for variation in performance. +The PSA devotes most of its resources to monitoring performance and comparing it. The +evidence on comparative performance is provided to the board of the PSA on a regular basis. +The board uses this information to reallocate resources from less-efficient providers to more- +efficient providers. +The PSA can also experiment with distributing vouchers to households rather than money to +service providers. This reduces the need for monitoring of performance but introduces other +problems. To take a trivial example, in health care the prescription of glucose will produce a +short-term improvement in the patient without addressing the causes of the illness. Users can +easily misinterpret this effect as indicating that they need repeated treatment rather than different +treatment. Hence, in the absence of good ethical standards among practitioners in this instance +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 +vouchers could be dysfunctional. More generally, the balance of whether service providers are +more effectively monitored by professions or by users will vary according to type of service and +local context and is best determined by experiment. +Why a PSA should improve service delivery +A PSA is a design that is based on modern economic principles and the evidence from fieldwork +(see Bold, Collier and Zeitlin (2009) for a discussion of how a PSA fits with theory and +evidence). This does not guarantee that it is appropriate, but there are clear reasons to expect it to +work considerably better than either the 1950s model or the donor bypass. +Variation, competition and selection +A PSA builds in variation in approaches to service delivery: different providers will be +attempting to solve the problem worker motivation in different ways. Since the core function of +the PSA is to evaluate these different approaches it enables gradual improvement in overall +efficiency. The increase in efficiency comes about through two different mechanisms. +The most obvious is through the awareness of competition acting as a disciplining device on +providers. Through this mechanism, the performance of the typical service provider might be +expected to improve. However, this is probably not the most important. +The more important mechanism is that resources can gradually be reallocated from inefficient +providers to efficient providers. Since the variation in efficiency between different providers is +likely to be considerable, simply by reallocating money between them the PSA can raise the +efficiency of the average dollar spent on service provision. Note that this does not depend upon +any improvement in efficiency in each organization. +Branding +Unlike the donor bypass of the state, with a PSA donor money is routed through a state +organization. A condition of for a non-government service provider receiving money from the +PSA should be that the services delivered are co-branded by government. While the visibility of +donor operations is reduced, that of government is increased. Ordinary citizens are able to see +that the government is doing something that is beneficial. +Scaling up because of donor confidence +By design, the PSA generates information on the performance of the organizations that it funds, +and hence on its own performance. Since donors are represented on the management board of the +PSA they have full access to this information. Transparency of information for donors is crucial +in post-conflict conditions to enable donors to scale up financing beyond the immediate post- +conflict period. During the first few years donors give governments are the benefit of the doubt, +but this rapidly erodes. In its place governments need rapidly to build donor confidence. This +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 +cannot be done either by declarations or by comprehensive improvements in governance. +Declarations of good practice can be made equally well by those governments that have no +intention of adhering to them and so, despite a deceptively courteous reception, cut no ice with +donors. Comprehensive improvements in governance simply take too long to achieve to stave of +reductions in donor funding. A PSA provides a quick institutional solution to the problem of +building credibility with donors: transparency and design substitute for the lack of trust. As +quantitative evidence of performance builds up, the local offices of donor agencies are in a much +stronger position to press their headquarters for a larger share of the budget. +Centralized resource allocation +The PSA retains the key benefit of central planning: resource allocation can be coordinated +rather than being simply the aggregation of individual donor decisions. Further, since the PSA is +designed to generate information, the precondition for central planning to be effective is met. +However, while overall resource allocation is centrally determined, the incentive problem is not +micro-managed. The PSA does not attempt to motivate or monitor the workers who deliver +services. That task is decentralized to individual service providers to solve as best they can. The +PSA faces the less daunting task of monitoring the overall performance of each delivery +organization. +Motivating the PSA +The Board of the PSA faces the task of motivating the staff of the PSA. Why might this be any +easier than the task of motivating civil servants in the service delivery ministries? In part it is +easier because, being a new organization outside the civil service the PSA can start with higher +pay structures that are credibly linked to rewards and penalties. Recruits have some reason to +expect that the behaviour of their colleagues will not be the same as civil service behaviour. +Perhaps more importantly, the remit of the PSA is more narrowly defined than the remit of a +ministry. It is not trying to do everything from policy design to on-the-ground delivery of +services. It is allocating money between providers and evaluating their performance. Finally, it is +subject to day-to-day scrutiny by donors and civil society who as members of the management +board receive a continuous flow of information about the performance of managers. +How can a PSA be established? +A PSA does not need to start with a 'big bang'. It can start small, with one or two donors +cooperating with a particular government ministry to finance an expansion in the delivery of a +particular service. It should be viewed as an experiment in the architecture of public service +delivery. As an experiment it should be evaluated, but, by design, such evaluation is automatic. If +it succeeds it can be scaled up virtually without limit. Ultimately, the government might decide +that the PSA, or a series of PSAs, is the most cost-effective and politically effective way of +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 +delivering services for the society. If it fails then it can readily be closed: donors are used to +running projects which terminate. Nor is failure likely to have high costs. Unfortunately, in there +is currently no successful model of large scale service delivery in post-conflict conditions, so that +the opportunity cost of failure is likely to be modest. +Conclusion +Post-conflict societies have been attempting to deliver basic services using an inherited colonial +model that has little prospect of success in the context of their own societies. Given the acute +needs of their citizens, it is high time for governments to experiment with other designs. The key +desiderata are that a new system should be capable of being rapidly scaled up, while leading to +something that is politically sustainable. A PSA is not as good as the 1950s model when that +model is deployed in ideal conditions. However, based on theory and evidence, it is likely to be +more successful than the centralized ministerial approach in the conditions that actually prevail +in post-conflict societies. Given the enormous attention that post-conflict societies and other +fragile states are now rightly receiving, there is a strong case for experimenting with the PSA +design on a pilot basis. +Reference: +Tessa Bold, Paul Collier, and Andrew Zeitlin, 2009, Public Service Authorities, Centre for the +Study of African Economies, Oxford. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769411 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5022,C05769412,FROM GOH - MONTREAL MEETING TALKING POINTS,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-01-24T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0060/DOC_0C05769412/C05769412.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05769412,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Mills, Cheryl D +Sunday, January 24, 2010 9:41 AM +Sullivan, Jacob J +FW: from GOH - Montreal meeting talking points +See traffic at bottom which Bob Maguire (Haiti expert) sent to Leslie Voltaire (Haiti's rep to WJC Envoy office and UN) +who also forwarded to PM Bellerive. +cdm","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769412 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B5,B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Cc: +Subject: +Mills, Cheryl D +Sunday, January 24, 2010 9:41 AM +Sullivan, Jacob J +FW: from GOH - Montreal meeting talking points +See traffic at bottom which Bob Maguire (Haiti expert) sent to Leslie Voltaire (Haiti's rep to WJC Envoy office and UN) +who also forwarded to PM Bellerive. +cdm +From: remaguire +Sent: Sunday, January 24, 2010 9:23 AM +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Subject: from GOH - Montreal meeting talking points +Cheryl - See below the response of Leslie Voltaire and PM Jean Max Bellerive to talking points for tomorrow's +Montreal meeting I proposed yesterday.

It +is a good summation of concerns and prospects. - Bob +Beyond the Earthquake: +A Wake-Up Call for Haiti +Alex Dupuy +Department of Sociology +Wesleyan University +Middletown, CT 06457 +Long before the powerful 7.0 magnitude earthquake (and several aftershocks) struck Haiti on January 12 and leveled the +metropolitan capital city of Port-au-Prince and surrounding areas, that city was already a disaster waiting to happen. +With a population of more than 2 million in a city whose infrastructure could at best sustain a population of 100,000, the +local and national public administrations simply abandoned the city to itself. Neither provided meaningful services of +any kind-schools, healthcare, electricity, potable water, sanitation, zoning and construction regulations-and what they +did provide was poorly administered, or primarily served the needs of the wealthier or better off sectors of the +population who could afford to pay for them. Consider, for example, that only about 28 percent of Haitians have access +to health care, 50 percent have access to potable water, and 10 percent have electrical services. In short, the Haitian +state-i.e., the government-long ago abdicated its responsibilities to the majority of Haitian citizens, and at least since the +Duvalier era, deferred to bilateral and multilateral aid donors, non-governmental agencies (NG0s) to provide services to +the population. More NGOs per capita operate in Haiti than in any other country in the world, and they provide 70 +percent of healthcare in rural areas and 80 percent of public services. This, in turn, has led to an extreme laissez alter +and the near total privatization of all basic services. Except for a brief seven month attempt in 1991 that ended in a +bloody coup d'etat against the democratically elected government of Jean-Bertrand Aristide, the turn to democratic +governance has not changed that basic reality. It is therefore no accident that while the earthquake caused death and +destruction among all social classes, the high death toll-estimates run from as low as 10,000 to a high of 200,000 so far, +which means no one really knows-is also a direct consequence of the poor infrastructure, inferior housing construction, +and the long-standing disregard for the basic needs and rights of the population. +What's more, geologists had warned the government of the probability of a seismic eruption for years, but as with +previous massive destructions and loss of lives caused by hurricanes and tropical storms, the government took no +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769425 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769425 Date: 08/31/2015 +measures to prepare for that possibility. It comes as no surprise, then, that the Haitian people have to rely entirely on +the international community to come to its rescue. This would have been the case even if the symbols of government +authority-the National Palace, the Parliament, the headquarters of the National Police, and other ministries-had not +been destroyed for the simple reason that the capacity of the Haitian state to respond to a crisis of this magnitude-or +even to less severe ones-is non existent due primarily to shortsighted practices and policies-political, economic, and +social-that prioritized the interests of the few-the 4 percent of the population who hold 66 percent of total assets and +the 1 percent who appropriate 55 percent of the national income-at the expense of the 75 percent of the population +who live on less than $2/day and the more than half who live on less than $1/clay. +There is no doubt that the dominant economic and political classes of Haiti bear great responsibility for the abysmal +conditions in the country that exacerbated the impact of the earthquake (or of hurricanes or tropical storms). However, +these local actors did not create these conditions alone but did so in close partnership with foreign governments and +economic actors with long-standing interests in Haiti, principally those of the advanced countries-the United States, +Canada, and France-and their international financial institutions (IF1s)-the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, +the Inter-American Development Bank. Since the 1970s and under various free market mantras, these international +actors and institutions sought to and succeeded in transforming Haiti into a supplier of the cheapest labor in this +hemisphere for foreign and domestic investors in the export assembly industry; in dismantling all obstacles to free trade; +in privatizing public enterprises; and in weakening further the institutions of the state through policies that reinforced +Haiti's dependence on foreign aid organizations-governmental and non-governmental. +These policies had drastic consequences for the Haitian economy. Locating the assembly industries primarily in Port-au- +Prince encouraged migration from the rural areas to the capital city, contributed to its bloated population and sprawling +squalor, and provided a never ending supply of cheap labor for those industries. At the same time, removing tariffs on +food imports were detrimental to Haitian agriculture. Whereas in the 1970s Haiti produced most of the rice it +consumed and imported only 10 percent of its food needs, by the end of the 1990s it was importing more than 42 +percent of its food needs, had become the highest per capita consumer of subsidized US imported rice in the Western +Hemisphere, and the largest importer of foodstuffs from the US in the Caribbean. Thus, US farmers benefitted at the +expense of Haitian producers. These policies, too, propelled rural-to-urban migration, with Port-au-Prince as the primary +destination, as well as emigration to the neighboring Dominican Republic, the Caribbean, and North America. Haiti is +becoming increasingly dependent on remittances from its immigrants, which now represent 35 percent of Haiti's GDP. +What, then, is to be done? The response of the international community-from governments, the UN, and NGOs around +the world-for medical treatment, food, water, temporary shelter, and road and communication repairs-has been +immediate and massive, but will need to be sustained for a longer time span if it is to help Haiti recover economically in +the short and medium term. Pressure is also mounting on bilateral and multilateral aid donors to cancel Haiti's debt of +some $1.15 billion. +But to be effective and long lasting, future aid must be unconditional and be given more in the form of grants than +loans. To that end, the Haitian people need to rethink how the country relates to the international community, in +particular the major powers and the IFIs. Basically, I would argue, Haiti needs to break with the policies advocated by +the major powers and IFIs that have proved disastrous for the Haitian economy. These policies are predicated on the +belief that Haiti can develop only if it remains open to the world market, relies on its comparative advantage of low-cost +labor to attract foreign investments in the export assembly industry, and prioritizes the production of selected +agricultural goods, such as mangoes, for export. Despite the failure of these policies to generate sustainable +development, reduce unemployment and improve the standard of living of the majority of Haitians, the major powers +and IFIs continue to advocate them as the solution to Haiti's chronic underdevelopment and poverty. This is shown, for +example, by the report written by former World Bank economist Paul Collier for UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in +2008, and the latter's appointment of former US President Bill Clinton to spearhead that strategy in Haiti.

With a population +of more than 2 million in a city whose infrastructure could at best sustain a population of +100,000, the local and national public administrations simply abandoned the city to itself. +Neither provided meaningful services of any kind—schools, healthcare, electricity, +potable water, sanitation, zoning and construction regulations—and what they did +provide was poorly administered, or primarily served the needs of the wealthier or better +off sectors of the population who could afford to pay for them. Consider, for example, +that only about 28 percent of Haitians have access to health care, 50 percent have access +to potable water, and 10 percent have electrical services. In short, the Haitian state—i.e., +the government—long ago abdicated its responsibilities to the majority of Haitian +citizens, and at least since the Duvalier era, deferred to bilateral and multilateral aid +donors, non-governmental agencies (NG0s) to provide services to the population. More +NGOs per capita operate in Haiti than in any other country in the world, and they provide +70 percent of healthcare in rural areas and 80 percent of public services. This, in turn, +has led to an extreme laissez aller and the near total privatization of all basic services. +Except for a brief seven month attempt in 1991 that ended in a bloody coup d'etat against +the democratically elected government of Jean-Bertrand Aristide, the turn to democratic +governance has not changed that basic reality. It is therefore no accident that while the +earthquake caused death and destruction among all social classes, the high death toll— +estimates run from as low as 10,000 to a high of 200,000 so far, which means no one +really knows—is also a direct consequence of the poor infrastructure, inferior housing +construction, and the long-standing disregard for the basic needs and rights of the +population. +What's more, geologists had warned the government of the probability of a +seismic eruption for years, but as with previous massive destructions and loss of lives +caused by hurricanes and tropical storms, the government took no measures to prepare for +that possibility. It comes as no surprise, then, that the Haitian people have to rely entirely +on the international community to come to its rescue. This would have been the case +even if the symbols of government authority—the National Palace, the Parliament, the +headquarters of the National Police, and other ministries—had not been destroyed for the +simple reason that the capacity of the Haitian state to respond to a crisis of this +magnitude—or even to less severe ones—is non existent due primarily to shortsighted +practices and policies—political, economic, and social—that prioritized the interests of +the few—the 4 percent of the population who hold 66 percent of total assets and the 1 +percent who appropriate 55 percent of the national income—at the expense of the 75 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769426 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769426 Date: 08/31/2015 +percent of the population who live on less than $2/day and the more than half who live on +less than $1/day. +There is no doubt that the dominant economic and political classes of Haiti bear +great responsibility for the abysmal conditions in the country that exacerbated the impact +of the earthquake (or of hurricanes or tropical storms).

In fact, these may have been even more damaging to America's future. He fought to +reinstate Honduras's pro-Chavez president while stalling Colombia's favored-trade status. He castigated Israel at the +United Nations but was silent about Hamas having launched 7,000 rockets from the Gaza Strip. His policy of +""engagement"" with rogue nations has been met with North Korean nuclear tests, missile launches and the sinking of a +South Korean naval vessel, while Iran has accelerated its nuclear program, funded terrorists and armed Hezbollah with +long-range missiles. He acceded to Russia's No. 1 foreign policy objective, the abandonment of our Europe-based missile +defense program, and obtained nothing whatsoever in return. +Despite all of this, the president's New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (New-START) with Russia could be his worst +foreign policy mistake yet. The treaty as submitted to the Senate should not be ratified. +New-START impedes missile defense, our protection from nuclear-proliferating rogue states such as Iran and North +Korea. Its preamble links strategic defense with strategic arsenal. It explicitly forbids the United States from converting +intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) silos into missile defense sites. And Russia has expressly reserved the right to +walk away from the treaty if it believes that the United States has significantly increased its missile defense capability. +Hence, to preserve the treaty's restrictions on Russia, America must effectively get Russia's permission for any missile +defense expansion. Moscow's vehemence over our modest plans in Eastern Europe demonstrate that such permission +would be extremely unlikely. +The treaty empowers a Bilateral Consultative Commission with broad latitude to amend the treaty with specific +reference to missile defense. New START does something the American public would never countenance and the Senate +should never permit: It jeopardizes our missile defense system. +The treaty also gives far more to the Russians than to the United States. As drafted, it lets Russia escape the limit on its +number of strategic nuclear warheads. Loopholes and lapses -- presumably carefully crafted by Moscow — provide a +path to entirely avoid the advertised warhead-reduction targets. For example, rail-based ICBMs and launchers are not +mentioned. Similarly, multiple nuclear warheads that are mounted on bombers are effectively not counted. Unlike past +treaty restrictions, ICBMs are not prohibited from bombers. This means that Russia is free to mount a nearly unlimited +number of ICBMs on bombers -- including MIRVs (multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles) or multiple +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769454 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769454 Date: 08/31/2015 +warheads -- without tripping the treaty's limits. These omissions would be consistent with Russia's plans for a new heavy +bomber and reports of growing interest in rail-mobile ICBMs. +Under New START, the United States must drastically reduce our number of launchers but Russia will not -- it already has +fewer launchers than the treaty limits. Put another way: We give, Russia gets. And more troubling, the treaty fails to +apply the MIRV limits that were part of the prior START treaty. Again, it may not be coincidental that Russia is +developing a new heavy-load -- meaning MIRV-capable -- ICBM. +New-START gives Russia a massive nuclear weapon advantage over the United States. The treaty ignores tactical nuclear +weapons, where Russia outnumbers us by as much as 10 to 1. Obama heralds a reduction in strategic weapons from +approximately 2,200 to 1,550 but fails to mention that Russia will retain more than 10,000 nuclear warheads that are +categorized as tactical because they are mounted on missiles that cannot reach the United States. But surely they can +reach our allies, nations that depend on us for a nuclear umbrella. And who can know how those tactical nuclear +warheads might be reconfigured? Astonishingly, while excusing tactical nukes from the treaty, the Obama +administration bows to Russia's insistence that conventional weapons mounted on ICBMs are counted under the treaty's +warhead and launcher limits. +By all indications, the Obama administration has been badly out-negotiated. Perhaps the president's eagerness for +global disarmament led his team to accede to Russia's demands, or perhaps it led to a document that was less than +carefully drafted. +Whatever the reason for the treaty's failings, it must not be ratified: The security of the United States is at stake. The +only responsible course is for the Senate to demand and scrutinize the full diplomatic record underlying the treaty. Then +it must insist that any linkage between the treaty and our missile defense system be eliminated. In a world where +nuclear weapons are proliferating, America's missile defense shield must not be compromised. As currently drafted, +New START is a non-starter. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769454 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5047,C05769455,BARAK,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-07-06T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0086/DOC_0C05769455/C05769455.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Tuesday, July 6, 2010 7:19 AM",F-2014-20439,C05769455,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"1.4(B) +Barak +1.4(D) +B1 +Slightly edited Background for Barak call: +On Gaza and the ""controlled items"" list, Israeli MFA Director General Yossi Gal and Ministry of Defense COGAT General +Eitan Dangot briefed Monday in Israel on a release of the new list, and newly announced international projects.

The severed head of a volunteer for Integrity Uganda, the pro-LGBT +organization founded by Bishop Christopher Senyonjo, was found in a pit latrine on a farm in Makindye +Sabagabo, Wakiso District. +Judith Nabakooba, a police spokesperson, identified the head as that of Pasikali Kashusbe, one of +the workers on Kigggundu's farm and a member of Integrity Uganda. Pasikali and his partner +Abbey are youth workers with Integrity Uganda charged with the responsibility of mobilising +young LGBT people in activities which build community capacity to face up to the challenge of +homophobia, especially in the area of attitude change and care through drama and sports +activities. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769462 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769462 Date: 08/31/2015 +According to the police, a mutilated torso which was earlier in the week discovered in Kabuuma +Zone, about half a kilometre away from Kiggundu's farm was probably Pasikali's The torso was +described as belonging to a young man and had no genitals. +Pasikali went missing over three and half weeks ago when the country was celebrating Uganda +Martyrs Day. All efforts by his partner Abbey and other family members to find him had been +fruitless. +Bishop Christopher Senyonjo, Chairperson of Integrity Uganda lamented the murder of this +young man as 'absurd' adding that, 'clearly, the values of tolerance and social inclusion are sadly +being sacrificed on the altar of state ignorance, ineptness and good old colonial stupidity'. +Uganda's Martyr's Day, a national holiday, is a particularly dangerous time for LGBT people. The holiday +commemorates the death of several Anglican and Catholic missionaries ordered by the Bugandan King Mwanga +II, who felt that foreign religious influences posed a threat to his kingdom. In fact, his fears proved correct; the +executions prompted Britain to invade Uganda and turn it into a British colony. Popular lore has it that King +Mwanga II, who himself was a teenager, killed the martyrs because they refused his homosexual advances. It is +unclear how much of that part of the story is true or how much of it is lore that was reinforced by the British +colonial government to discredit the king. +The farm where Kashusbe's head was found is reportedly owned by Badru Kiggundu, who is the chairman of +Uganda's Electoral Commission. Police found the head while searching for a missing priest, Rev Henry Kayizzi +Nsubuga, who disappeared almost two and half weeks ago after delivering a speech at St. Paul's Church in +Kanyanya supporting homosexuality in Uganda. +The independent television network NTV Uganda posted this video three days ago, but doesn't mention the +circumstances which appear to have led to Pasikali's murder: +http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JBj1bN3gtnQ +Daily Monitor, Uganda's largest newspapers, has a few more sparse details here. In this report, the victim is +identified as Paschal Kashushu. Amid conflicting reports, it appears that at at least one man has been arrested, +possibly a relative. I'm trying to get more information directly from Uganda. +Changing Attitudes has this statement from Rev Erich Kasirye, General Secretary, Integrity Uganda: +Pasikali and his partner Abbey joined Integrity Uganda in June 2007 and during the last three +years, Integrity Uganda has seen an increase in coordination and harmonisation of youth +activities. Pasikali emphasized the promotion of the concept of care across the continuum +through the formation of voluntary home care groups for young LGBTIs who continue to live in +fear. He will be greatly missed by the entire LGBTI fraternity. +As for the missing priest, the only direct news reports that I can find about him appear in the government-owned +New Vision. There is no mention of Rev. Nsubuga's sermon. Instead, it appears that relatives are painting the +missing priest as mentally ""stressed."" A report by a reporter from Kamulali Newspaper and re-published on the +virulently anti-gay web site Virtue Online provides more hints about the possible link between Rev.

This time, when I do walk up onto the Florida shore, I will send a loud message to all the millions my +age that 60 is not irrelevant, that we are still strong, vital, vibrant individuals, that our best days are not by any means all +behind us. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769467 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769467 Date: 08/31/2015 +For 30 years, I hadn't swum a stroke. I valued physical fitness to an extreme degree, but just hadn't swum at all +for 30 years. And now this past year's training is done. It has been intense. Many, many 10, 12, 15 hour swims in the +Caribbean. Grueling tests of both body and spirit. +But I was naive to think the training would be the tough part. I am feeling strong and confident. But the +government permissions for me to walk off the Cuban shore are keeping me from my Dream. +I first went to the Cuban Interest Section and was told the Cubans would eagerly welcome my event. They +remember my first attempt and I have been back many times for clinics and such. But they said I would definitely need +to first have approval from the State Department. I was told there that it is a sensitive time politically, that both Obama +and Hilary Clinton are very much pro-embargo and it would take perhaps a year to procure State Department clearance. +On advice from three lawyers from Sonnenschein in D.C., I was told that it would take a direct green light from +Hilary herself to get this expedition cleared. +Because I have been stymied by Treasury and the State Dept, I let the Cuban Interest Section permissions go so +now I don't have permissions from their end, either. +I am going to make one last attempt to get this done legally by contacting Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman +Schultz. Perhaps in light of a positive story vis a vis Florida Tourism....there is beautifully clean water, not far from the oil +disaster and the heroic message of a 60-year-old swimming 100 miles and walking up onto the shores of her own +country, her own home state, Congresswoman Schultz could champion the project into full legal status, from both the +Cuban and the State Department sides. +CNN is the exclusive broadcast coverer of my swim. I am just tonight on the front page of CNN.com. +There will no doubt be much positive news to come from this story...and to Florida....throughout my endeavor. +I will do a 24-hour training swim off Key West the week-end of July 10-11. CNN will cover live. +And then the hope is to go over to Havana on July 23 (or wait at a training camp in Key West starting on July 23) +and then get the Cuba swim started whenever Mother Nature gives us a forecast of calm seas. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769467 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5055,C05769468,UNDELIVERABLE: FOLLOW W SEC NAPOLITANO,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C",116,2010-01-24T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0060/DOC_0C05769468/C05769468.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: Undeliverable: Followup w Sec Napolitano,H; Huma Abedin,"Jiloty, Lauren C ",,"Sunday, January 24, 2010 4:18 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769468,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,SchwartzEP@state.gov,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769468 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Jiloty, Lauren C +Sent: Sunday, January 24, 2010 4:18 PM +To: H; Huma Abedin +Subject: Re: Undeliverable: Followup w Sec Napolitano +SchwartzEP@state.gov +Original Message --- +From: H +To: Jiloty, Lauren C; Huma Abedin +Sent: Sun Jan 24 16:13:06 2010 +Subject: Re: Undeliverable: Followup w Sec Napolitano +What is Eric Scwarz's email? +Original Message +From: postmaster@state.gov +To: scwarzericp@state.gov +Sent: Sun Jan 24 16:09:23 2010 +Subject: Undeliverable: Followup w Sec Napolitano +Delivery has failed to these recipients or distribution lists: +scwarzericp@state.gov +The recipient's e-mail address was not found in the recipient's e-mail system.

(Gary Fabiano / Sipa Press) Obama's bow to Netanyahu was +just the latest in a series of disastrous missteps in U.S. policy toward Israel. Leslie H.

The +only thing accomplished by this embarrassing tactic was to put Israel in a position to call the shots on Mideast policy for +the rest of Obama's first term. +The real enemy of a negotiated settlement in the Mideast is not time; it's failure. +Were the culprits the non-foreign policy White House intimates — chief of staff Rahm Emanuel and political honcho David +Axelrod? Axelrod knows nothing about this, and worse, Emanuel thinks he does because he lived in Israel. Was George +Mitchell, the president's Mideast negotiator, the brains behind the foolishness? Surely, he's had enough experience +working with Israelis to know better. Did General James Jones, the National Security Adviser, remain silent, again? And of +course, where was Secretary of State Hillary Clinton? Strangely for someone so adept at pleasing Israel's constituents in +America, she spent a lot of time this past year publicly beating up on Israeli leaders. Has she been led astray by the pro- +Arab contingent of the State Department? +•Martin Indyk: New Hope for Mideast Peace +•Peter Beinart: Netanyahu's Latest Insult Or is the guilty party none other than President Obama himself? The more we +find out about who makes decisions in the White House on every subject from nuclear weapons to coloring of Easter +eggs, it turns out to be the man in the Oval Office himself. He's the expert. He's the decider. He invites everyone to state +his or her piece or peace, then he tells them what to do — and seemingly without question, they do his bidding. +Mr. Obama started his White House tenure from a near-zero base of foreign policy knowledge and no experience in the +Middle East. It was easy enough to guess this blissful state from his earliest decisions. He came out of the box demanding +that Israel agree to suspend construction on the West Bank as a precondition for direct negotiations with the Palestinians. +Anyone who knew anything about this situation surely would have told the president that the chances of Mr. Netanyahu +agreeing to this ""proposal"" were zero, or minus zero. No Israeli leader, even a dovish one, would ever dream of beginning +negotiations by conceding his major bargaining card. As the teenagers say, what were Obama and his advisers thinking? +And yes, after the Israelis publicly humiliated Vice President Biden during his trip to the Holy Land by announcing they +would start new construction in East Jerusalem, Washington had to respond vehemently. The Israelis had been arrogant +and stupid on this one. They had weakened American power in the region. No U.S. president could let them get away with +it. Clinton and others made strong public statements of criticism, and those were fine. But Mr. Obama then allowed Mr. +Netanyahu to come ahead with his planned visit to D.C. — and publicly humiliated him. The U.S. president let the Israeli +prime minister cool his heels for hours before meeting with him, then wouldn't shake his hand when he departed. There's +no surer way to unite a nation behind its leader, even a controversial one like Netanyahu, than to have a foreign leader +humiliate him. +This brilliant tactic — thought of by Obama's advisers or the president himself — accomplished two things. It stiffened Israeli +backs even further against being conciliatory about starting talks with the Palestinians. The Israeli government was not +about to cave to American pressures. It also galvanized Israeli supporters in the United States — in particular within +conservative parts of the Jewish community and the Republican Party. There went Mr. Obama's support for pressing +Israel even in private. +To top this all off with Tuesday's meeting, full of smiles and the adoption of Israeli-desired language on almost every topic, +only made matters worse. It made the situation look as if the American president had been cowed by Jewish control of +. . +American politics. That certainly pleased American and Israeli hawks, but it did not please others who want to see +genuine progress in Mideast talks. +There is a time and place for Washington to put pressure on Israel. Mr. Obama and his team picked every wrong time and +place. The right occasion to squeeze is when the negotiations have reached the point where both sides have given and +where both must give more to close the deal. Only at that point does pressure make sense. All parties would get a real +shot at peace in return for their concessions. +To be sure, many ask at this point — How do you get to that point? The answer is not to browbeat the parties to scurry to +the negotiating table. That tactic simply never pays off. The answer is to build conditions beyond the negotiating table, +conditions in the political community in both Israel and Palestine, that would support compromises at the table. The British' +pushed the Catholics and Protestants to make concessions year after year, only to fail time and again, only to further +inflame feelings all around and spur greater violence. Finally, London focused on getting Protestant and Catholic women +to form common groups to support compromise. London did as much with various business communities that evolved into +backers of mutual concessions as well. Only then did parties know that they had support for compromises, their +negotiations got somewhere, and they reached agreement. That's what needs to be done between Israel and the +Palestinians. +We hear time and again that the enemy of peace in the Middle East is time, and that time is running out. Perhaps that is +what has caused Mr. Obama and his team to misstep so badly; they think it's a race against the clock. Do something now +or fail. But the real enemy of a negotiated settlement in the Mideast is not time; it's failure. Neither Israel nor the +Palestinians nor the United States can afford to fail again.

Our plan was to be at a +hospital where we could utilize our abilities as trauma surgeons treat the acute +injuries involved in an orthopaedic disaster. We expected many amputations +however came with a philosophy that would reasonably start limb salvage in what +we thought was a salvageable limb. +David Helfet put a team together which included: +2 orthopaedic trauma surgeons +3 orthopaedic trauma fellows +2 highly skilled anesthiologists +1 general surgery trauma surgeon +2 synthes reps who were also scrub techs +1 trauma nurse practioner to do triage +2 OR nurses +Our equipment including a huge amount of anesth medications and equipment, +ability to construct 150 ex fix both small and large, OR equipment including +scalpels etc, OR soft goods, splint material, OR prep material. +We also had a plan of physician and equipment replacemnt that was dynamic +where w/i 24hrs we could bring in what was necessary on the Synthes private jet. +We thought the plan was a good one. +We were incredibly naïve. +Disaster management on the ground was nonexistent. The difficulties in getting +in despite the intelligence we had from people on the ground and david helfet's +high political connections with Partner's in Health as well as the Clintons only +portended the difficulties we would have once we arrived. +We started out friday morning, got a slot to get in friday that was eventually +cancelled when we were on the runway to be rescheduled the next day. We +diverted to the DR and planned on arriving in P OP saturday. +Once on the ground the hospital we had intelligence that was up and running with +2 OR's General Hospital was included severely in the earthquake and not capable +of running functioning OR's as there was no running water and only a limited +electrical supply on generator. +We quickly took our second option +Community Hospital of Haiti.

This plane landed as planned sunday pm, equipment +was loaded on a truck and subsequent hijacked between the airport and the +hospital. +At the hospital we had zero security despite promises form NYPD and NYFD to +provide that to us. +Our philosophy was to work like this was a marathon run the OR's around the +clock with the idea that we would have a defined extraction time of llpm +tues.

We decided to make our way to airport thru the help of a +hospital benefactor. Jamaican soldiers with M-16 were necessary to escort us out +with our luggage as the crowd outside saw us abandoning the hospital. +We made it to airport on back of a pickup track, got onto the tarmac, hailed a +commercial plane that carried cargo to montreal and had private jet pick us up +there. +The issues we were unprepared for and witnessed were +1.

It may sound trite but it's true +-- just ask students and activists in Iran and China. With the Internet comes freedom. With freedom comes the Internet. +In countless ways, for many people, the Internet is freedom. +Hillary Clinton underlined that reality in a bold, impassioned speech at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. this morning. +Words like ""bold"" and ""impassioned"" are not usually found in most of the mainstream media's caricature of Clinton. +Nevertheless, the Secretary of State gave by far the most important speech about Internet freedom delivered by a top +U.S. official. What makes it all the more notable is the fact that it was given by arguably the most recognizable female +political figure in the world. In parts of the Middle East, women are beaten and killed by relatives who find out they are +using sites like Twitter and Facebook. ""Honor"" beatings, they're called. +""Given the magnitude of the challenges we're facing, we need people around the world to pool their knowledge and +creativity to help rebuild the global economy, protect our environment, defeat violent extremism and build a future in +which every human being can realize their God-given potential,"" said Clinton, who announced a new $15 million project +to help more women, young people and citizen groups to get online. (WATCH: Video of her speech is below.) +Clinton, speaking in broad strokes and finer details, outlined what she called the ""five key freedoms of the Internet age."" +Freedom to connect online anywhere. Freedom of speech. Freedom of worship. +Freedom from fear of cyber attacks. ""In an interconnected world,"" she said, ""an attack on one nation's networks can be +an attack on all."" +Freedom of ""want"" -- which means that the here-comes-everybody ethos of the Web, the fact that we can bear witness +to each other online, can be leveraged in helping relieve suffering worldwide. +On the Twitterverse, where Internet observers and activists commented on Clinton's remarks and her subsequent Q&A +in real time, some took note of her ""disappointing"" answers regarding China's alleged cyber attacks targeted at human +rights activists. And inevitably, immediate coverage of the speech in our conflict-driven mainstream media, from the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769504 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769504 Date: 08/31/2015 +New York Times to the Associated Press, focused on the China-Google dispute, which is being closely watched by human +rights activists, government officials and Internet companies. But the overall meaning and message of her remarks, +beyond the China-Google stand-off, cannot be overstated. The Internet, after all, was born in America, created by our +researches and funded by our government. With help and input from other countries, the Web's evolving ethos and +guiding principles should be shaped by America -- and, naturally, by America's top diplomat. +""Sec. Clinton once and for all established the fact that free speech and free enterprise can no longer be achieved unless +we have Internet freedom,"" Andrew Rasiej, founder of the Personal Democracy Forum, an annual conference on +technology's impact on politics and policy, told me shortly after Clinton's remarks. He called her speech nothing short of +a ""milestone"" in the future of American foreign policy."" +""In a world where billions are connected with each other through technology -- through the Internet and mobile phones +-- it is imperative that governments recognize that it's easier and faster for people to connect with each other than for +governments to connect with their citizens. Any government that fails to understand this dynamic will left in the history +books,"" Rasiej continued."" +Less than two weeks ago, Clinton hosted a nearly two-hour dinner for some of the tech industry's leading thinkers and +innovators. It was a small, intimate affair, and guests included Twitter creator Jack Dorsey, Google CEO Eric Schmidt and +Howcast CEO and co-founder Jason Liebman, who wrote about the event for HuffPostTech in a blog titled ""Facebook, +YouTube and Twitter Are Tools For Diplomacy."" Rasiej was one of the guests. Clinton is interested in how technology can +spur innovation within the State Department and in countries that the U.S. +has interest in supporting, Rasiej said. Accompanying Clinton in the dinner was her senior staff and her growing new +media department; most recently, Katie Jacobs Stanton, a former Google exec who joined the White House as its +director of citizen participation, joined the State Department. +There's a bit of irony at work here. Early in the long, bruising primary campaign that pitted the establishment-backed +former first lady turned New York senator against the little-known insurgent junior senator from Illinois, Clinton was +considered less Web-savvy than Barack Obama. Hers was a top-down, command-and-control operation, online +observers suggested. In fact, the first online attack ad that spread on YouTube and foreshadowed the narrative of their +historic fight for the Democratic nomination portrayed Clinton as the old PC and Obama as the shiny new Mac. +""After having lost to Obama, especially to Obama's use of the Internet in attracting and mobilizing supporters,"" Rasiej +pointed out, ""Clinton is now leading the way within the Obama administration in recognizing the transformational +opportunities that the Internet can provide."" +Using DipNote, the State Department's blog, recording videos from all corners of the world, especially where girls and +women are considered second-class citizens, leveraging technological tools that, as we're seeing in the response and +outpouring of support for Haiti, allow us to become ""global citizens,"" Clinton can be the Web's first global diplomat. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769504 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5070,C05769509,MAGGIE WILLIAMS CALLED YOU BACK,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C",116,2010-07-08T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0086/DOC_0C05769509/C05769509.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,"Jiloty, Lauren C ",,"Thursday, July 8, 2010 5:20 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769509,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"She will be around/reachable the rest of the evening. +Ops also has her phone number on file. +1###","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769509 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Jiloty, Lauren C +Sent: Thursday, July 8, 2010 5:20 PM +To: +Subject Maggie Williams called you back +She will be around/reachable the rest of the evening. +Ops also has her phone number on file. +1### +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769509 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5071,C05769510,JIM'S GOING TO CALL YOU,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-01-24T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0060/DOC_0C05769510/C05769510.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Jim's going to call you,,"Mills, Cheryl D ","Buhl, Cindy","Sunday, January 24, 2010 10:33 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769510,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769510 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Sunday, January 24, 2010 10:33 PM +To: +Subject FW: Jim's going to call you +fyi +From: Buhl, Cindy [mailto:Cindy.Buhl@mail.house.gov] +Sent: Sunday, January 24, 2010 4:32 PM +To: Mills, Cheryl D +Cc: Buhl, Cindy +Subject: Jim's going to call you +Dear Cheryl - +He's going to call your number.

The major points he wanted to emphasize were the ones he +had included in his emails to you, including: +• ""Rebalancing"" Haitian development: Redevelopment should occur nationwide and encourage a more +even distribution of the Haitian population. The international community should not rebuild Port-au- +Prince at the expense of the rest of the country. Bob thinks that nationwide rebuilding will also reduce +the chances of elite capture of the rebuilding effort, since elites are strongly concentrated in Port-au- +Prince. +• Transparency: Bob is cautious about just throwing money at the problem. He thinks the international +community should establish a new norm of transparency in Haiti, for example, to ensure that there isn't +widespread corruption, price gauging, grants of monopolies, etc. +• Link the Haitian business community to other business communities: Bob thinks that if all the +rebuilding is done by the usual suspects in the Haitian business community, they'll simply build back the +country they had before. He recommends working to bring in foreign investors, and then linking foreign +investors and leading Haitian businessmen (e.g., in a business roundtable) to socialize better business +practices in Haiti. +• On the issue of legal authorities for reconstruction: Bob recommends exploring whether presidential +commission-like structures could be empowered to resolve the legal problems likely to arise as barriers +to reconstruction. +• Duration of US presence: Bob cautioned that most Haitians would be happy to see a long-term US +military presence in the country, though this would likely have adverse reputational consequences in the +hemisphere for the United States. Given that hurricane season will begin in the fall, Bob recommends +that when we do draw down, we make clear that we will return if needed. +• Getting people to work: Bob argued that NGOs may not be the best vehicles for getting Haitians to +work (e.g., through job training, etc.). In short, they're too nice. Many Haitians have never held a regular +job, are unfamiliar with showing up on time, etc. They'll need a bit of tough love and discipline. Bob +though ex-military might set the right kind of example. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769511 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769511 Date: 08/31/2015 +• Diaspora: Engaging the diaspora is clearly important, but we do not want to support widespread +repatriation of the diaspora as NGO employees, reconstruction experts, etc., at the expense of Haitians +who never left. This reinforces wage differentials and social discontent about returnees. +• Conditional cash transfers: Bob thinks that conditional cash transfer programs have a lot of potential +to improve education and the delivery of health services in Haiti. +Peter E.

He thanked +the Chairwoman for her leadership and support and for her willingness and commitment to work with her colleagues to +secure the significant amounts of funding that is so essential to the success of our Mission's programs and efforts. They +had a very candid and detailed conversation about the elements, causes, and contributors to corruption in Afghanistan +and the various interagency programs that are partnering with Afghan institutions to promote transparency and +investigate corrupt practices and prosecute corrupt actors. +Chairwoman Lowey appreciated Ambassador Eikenberry's detailed analysis and thorough review of the conditions in +Afghanistan. She stated that there is an absolute need to ensure meaningful and effective accountability of US taxpayer +funds appropriated by Congress. She conceded that we are not going to create an utopian society free of corruption, +but stressed the need for accountability and transparency. She was particularly concerned with various reports that +officials within the GIRoA are impeding the Embassy's efforts to assist the Afghans in investigating and prosecuting +corrupt actors. The Chair asked if there are enough credible partners in the Afghan government who are committed to +good governance and transparency. Ambassador Eikenberry provided an assessment of where he thought the +challenges are, the next steps to be taken, and how progress can be made going forward. +The Chair reiterated her longstanding support for assistance programs, especially education and health, and she asked +Ambassador Eikenberry if he felt we are making progress in the areas of health, education, and agriculture. He provided +a review of the various health, education, and agriculture programs and the multitude of changes that have been +implemented to ensure greater transparency, accountability, and flexibility of funds and how these changes have better +equipped the embassy to hold contractors accountable. +The Ambassador raised the certification of Ministries program; how we are seeking to certify additional ministries once +the Ministries achieve the appropriate level of financial accountability standards; and how these efforts will help +develop Afghan capacity and ultimately allow us to increase the amount of assistance that goes through the Afghan +government. They discussed the NSP program, and the Chair reiterated her support for the program and how she had +consistently increased funding for NSP. +Ambassador Eikenberry explained the Afghan public's reaction to reports that the assistance money had been removed +and he respectfully encouraged her to reinstate the funding as quickly as possible so as to send a clear message to +Afghans that we intend to have an enduring civilian assistance presence. He invited her to visit Afghanistan for several +days and travel the country to see first-hand the progress that has been made and the challenges and opportunities that +remain. She thanked him for his invitation and suggested that any visit might have to be deferred until November. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769519 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769519 Date: 08/31/2015 +- +Several times she asked how the hearings could be helpful or if the hearings could be useful to shine a spotlight on +particular areas, and she welcomed Ambassador Eikenberry's thoughts on that issue.

If that is the situation with our great friend the US, it is easy to imagine the +situation in other, somewhat less sympathetic countries. +Channel Ten TV News, July 1 2010 20:38 +Yaacov Eilon (host): Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considered to make an extremely persuasive presentation in +the world press. But a professional analysis by a US expert presented yesterday to his senior aides strongly criticizes him. +Netanyahu's messages on the flotilla caused more harm than good. Our political correspondent Chico Menashe has +obtained the report. +Chico Menashe: Criticism of Prime Minister Netanyahu's current PR messages and Israeli PR in general comes from the +international elite of media consultants and pollsters and from the mouth of Frank Luntz, considered one of the leading +American political consultants, a Republican pollster, a consultant to many governments throughout the world and to +dozens of the biggest corporations in the US. He was asked by the Jewish organization The Israel Project to check the +opinions of the American public on the messages Israel issued to the world during and after the flotilla events. The result +is a harsh document that primarily criticizes the media strategy of the person considered Israel's number one +propagandist in the world, Prime Minister Netanyahu. +Netanyahu: Once again Israel faces hypocrisy and a biased rush to judgment. +Chico Menashe: Every time Israeli speakers begin with accusing the international community, writes Luntz, they +lose their audience. For example, Netanyahu's comments after the flotilla about the world hypocrisy were rejected by +most of the American participants who listened to them. The findings were presented last night to senior members of +Netanyahu's Bureau. Luntz checked the opinions with focus groups, not a poll. He warns of a dangerous slide in the +public opinion of the only country considered pro-Israeli, the U.S. Israel misses simple opportunities to change world +public opinion, he writes, and the consequences are significant. The American public increasingly hesitates to accept +arguments that support Israeli positions. +Ehud Barak: There is no hunger in Gaza and no humanitarian crisis. +Netanyahu: There's no shortage of food, there's no shortage of medicine, there's no shortage of other goods. +Chico Menashe: Luntz says Israel must immediately stop using the argument that there is no hunger and no +humanitarian crisis in Gaza. He says this fatally destroys Israel's credibility in light of the images on the +television screens. Israel must admit that there is a problem, he says, to gain the listeners' sympathy [emphasis +mine]. Luntz finds the troubling figure that 56% of participants agree with the claim that there is a humanitarian crisis in +Gaza, and no less astonishing is that 43% of participants from the American public agree with the claim that people in +Gaza are starving. But even lifting the closure that was supposed to improve Israel's image missed the opportunity, +according to Luntz. +Netanyahu: Yesterday an important decision was made by the security cabinet. Its meaning is clear. On the one hand, +allowing civilian goods into Gaza, and on the other hand maintaining the military blockade of Hamas. +Chico Menashe: The statement by Netanyahu's bureau of lifting the closure missed the opportunity to gain +support in international public opinion [emphasis mine]. Only 20% of the Americans polled felt support of Israel +following the statement. According to Lunt, this is the summary of the flotilla damage in American public opinion: Only +34% of the American public support the Israeli operation against the flotilla, and he says that is a dangerously low +percentage.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769542 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN +PART B6 +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject: +sbwhoeop +Sunday, July 11, 2010 10:06 AM +H: fyi, leaked Luntz poll on Bibi policies; and many congrats to Huma!

We remain committed to ensuring that those responsible for these crimes face justice. We recognize that +there can be no lasting peace without justice. It is only by bringing all responsible parties to account for their crimes that +we will truly honor Srebrenica's victims. +We are duty-bound — to the victims, to their surviving family members, and to future generations — to prevent such +atrocities from happening again. Our common faith in the value of freedom and peace unifies us and drives us to act. +That is why we are committed to working with all the communities that make up Bosnia and Herzegovina to move +forward and build a pluralistic, democratic state that can take its rightful place in the Euro-Atlantic community. A +prosperous, free, and unified Bosnia and Herzegovina is the most worthy monument to those who lost their lives at +Srebrenica and the best guarantee against such a tragedy ever repeating itself. +### +Drafted: EUR/PPD: TWeik +Cleared: +EUR/FO: NMcEldowney (ok) +EUR/SCE: JBuzbee (ok) +EUR/Press: MCavey (ok) +DRL/EUR: SCorke (ok) +P: TWaser (ok) +D: AScanlon +S/P: EGaudiosi (info) +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769547 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769547 Date: 08/31/2015 +PA: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769547 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5091,C05769549,KARZAI,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C",116,2010-07-11T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0086/DOC_0C05769549/C05769549.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Jiloty, Lauren C ",,"Sunday, July 11,2010 12:08 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769549,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Ms: +I apologize if this email is duplicating anyone else's efforts (we are trying to leave huma alone today!)

The Republican advantage is even greater among +likely voters who view the election as exceptionally important, with Republicans beating Democrats 56 +percent to 34 percent. +Control of Congress +For the Democrats, whd control Congress and the White House, the survey shows the potential 'for losses +in November, when voters will fill all 435 House seats, 36 Senate seats and 37 governorships. The +outcome could affect °Pam's ability to move his agenda through Congress for the two years leading up +to his own 2012 re-election bid. +The fate of incumbents will depend to some extent on what happens to the economy in the next four +months and whether unemployment drops much from its current 9.5 percent.

In the poll, Republicans have the advantage among the independents +often critical to winning elections.

While the president +has ordered an expansion of forces to turn the tide in a conflict where he says the U.S. has a critical stake, +58 percent say it is a lost cause, compared with 36 percent who say it can still be won.

The momentum is heading in the opposite direction from the White House and Democrats on most +other issues. +Almost half say they have become less supportive in recent months of federal money being loaned to +automotive companies to help them stay in business, while 37 percent have become less supportive of +the health-care overhaul passed by Congress earlier this year.

We did not make +concessions on our red lines and they failed to make us fold and to drag us to places we didn't want to go, said +Netanyahu, according to people who heard him speak. +Netanyahu is convinced that he is not going to be forced to extend the settlement construction freeze, which is due to +expire in September. According to senior officials in Jerusalem, an agreement has already been reached with the +administration that the Israeli government will not announce an extension of the construction freeze in the territories, +and the Americans will ""make sure"" that the Palestinians do not withdraw from the talks. Israel, however, will not take +""aggressive"" action and construction will be resumed only in areas that are clearly within the consensus inside the +settlement blocs. +The Prime Minister's Bureau vigorously denied the above report. ""The statements attributed to the prime minister are +incorrect,"" said a spokesman in the Prime Minister's Bureau. ""They were not said by Netanyahu in any forum. The +reason is simple: the prime minister does not think that, Prime Minister Netanyahu holds in great esteem the +commitment by President Obama and the administration to Israel's security and their efforts to renew the peace +process in our region."" +Eli Bardenstein adds: The formal invitation that Netanyahu received yesterday to meet with President Obama next week +might attest to a radical change in the White House's attitude towards him. Political sources in Israel described the +planned meeting as ""the peak of the campaign for Israel and the Jews that has been pursued by the Obama +administration in the past number of weeks."" The sources said that the meeting was geared to put an end to the grave +crisis that erupted some two months ago between the Obama administration and Netanyahu over the Israeli-Palestinian +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769600 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769600 Date: 08/31/2015 +conflict and particularly over the continued construction in East Jerusalem, and to mend the mistaken impression that +was received as if Israel was ""no longer an absolute ally of the United States."" +That crisis, which was initiated by the Americans, elicited fierce criticism in the United States, and sparked a desire +among members of the Obama administration to rectify the situation. Another reason for the administration's desire to +end the crisis is the fear of failure in the upcoming Congressional elections in November. ""The Democratic Party's coffers +are empty. Many Democrat members of Congress and Senators have complained that if the hazing of Israel were to +continue, they would be unable to obtain donations from Jews and were liable to lose the elections,"" said one source in +Washington. +The prevalent assessment is that Netanyahu will be received far more warmly in Washington next week than he was two +months ago. This time the meeting will be covered by the media and the two leaders are expected to have their picture +taken together and to give statements to the media. +That said, sources in Washington noted that ""Netanyahu is leery of the meeting with Obama and of walking into a trap +once again. He knows that the smiles notwithstanding, behind closed doors he is going to have to give answers to very +difficult questions, like 'how do you envision the end of the negotiations with the Palestinians."" +Netanyahu is to begin his political travels today in Paris, where he is to attend the ceremony in honor of Israel's +acceptance into the OECD. The prime minister will be arriving in a city that is on strike, which is liable to impede his +movement through the city streets to the center of Paris for his meetings. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769600 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5105,C05769601,DAVUT MTG,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-06-01T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0081/DOC_0C05769601/C05769601.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Tuesday, June 1, 2010 8:19 AM",F-2014-20439,C05769601,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Bill will be at prebrief, then has speech on India.

With 14 years at the helm of the small but influential foundation, Ms. Delaney has had a +pronounced and lasting influence on quality of life in our region. +On behalf of FISA, Ms. Delaney has changed the local landscape not only by funding projects with far-reaching results, +but by bringing people together to craft solutions to longstanding problems and by becoming personally involved in +many of the projects the foundation funds. +She became the first executive director of FISA Foundation when it began in 1996 with proceeds from the sale of +Harmarville Rehabilitation Center, a nonprofit, to HealthSouth, a for-profit organization. +The new foundation would continue the mission of the Federation of Independent School Alumnae, an organization that +opened a convalescent home for women in 1911 and the Harmarville Rehabilitation Center in 1954. That mission was to +improve the lives of women, girls and people with disabilities in Western Pennsylvania. +Ms. Delaney, who had been involved with Harmarville since 1980 -- starting as a volunteer and ending as development +director of its foundation -- sought the job of leading FISA. ""I realized the impact the foundation could have. FISA is not a +large foundation, but it's a very focused foundation,"" she said. +Over the past 14 years, FISA's endowment has grown to more than $38 million. Over $17 million has been granted to +726 projects in 298 organizations. +A roll call of projects funded by FISA reflects progressive thinking about including of people with disabilities in all aspects +of life, especially access to health care. Programs have become national models. +Women with disabilities, for example, often encounter barriers in typical healthcare settings. Standard exam tables and +diagnostic equipment were designed for the able-bodied, and medical staff often struggle to accommodate individuals +with special needs. FISA provided the seed money for the Center for Women with Disabilities at Magee-Womens +Hospital of UPMC, one of the first such clinics in the nation. FISA is involved in the overall issue of improving access to +healthcare for people with disabilities. +Likewise, people with disabilities have difficulty obtaining dental care. A FISA-funded project at Achieva is creating +statewide, systemic solutions. FISA also provided support for the Center for Patients with Special Needs at Pitt's School +of Dental Medicine. +FISA has also taken the lead on training arts and cultural venues how to make events more accessible and helping places +of worship more welcoming. +""Dee is a national leader in the field. If there were more people like her, we wouldn't have the issues we have,"" said Kim +Hutchinson, executive director of the Disability Funders Network, based in Virginia. Ms. Delaney has been a board officer +for the group since 2004. +Nancy Murray, president of the ARC of Greater Pittsburgh, said the issues Ms. Delaney has helped solve are ones that +people have been working on for years. +""People talk about strategies, but never move forward to solutions. Dee brings all the stakeholders together to get to +the solutions,"" said Ms. Murray. +""I think Dee has greatly influenced the next generation of nonprofit and philanthropic leaders, leading by example on +the value of true collaboration,"" said Susie Chase, a board member of FISA and former executive director of Working +Order, a FISA grantee. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769604 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769604 Date: 08/31/2015 +""With Dee, it is never about her own role, or FISA's role, it is always about unmet needs in the community and the work +that needs to be done. That seems to bring out the best in every partner, and in everyone who has the privilege of +working with her."" +Ms. Chase added that advice and technical assistance Ms. Delaney provided to Working Order ""were of equal or greater +value to the organization than the grant funds."" +""I still, after many years, never come away from a meeting with Dee that I haven't learned something, been inspired to +work harder, and understood more clearly the value of someone else's ideas and efforts."" +In her retirement, Ms. Delaney plans to ""give back to the community in new ways,"" she said. A new frontier is helping +young people with disabilities prepare for employment and leadership. ""We have to keep the fire burning."" +On May 19, FISA announced that Kristy Trautmann, who has served as the foundation's program director for six years, +was promoted to executive director. +""We sought a person who would follow Ms. Delaney's visionary leadership and guide the foundation into the next +decade,"" said Jane Burger, who chaired the search. committee.

""We're the only ones who believe +them — and what they're saying is true."" +The official was referring to Israeli protestations — backed by Israeli Defense Forces video +— that their solders were attacked by passengers on a ship headed for Gaza with +humanitarian aid, when they boarded the ship in what the Israelis concede were +international waters. +Organizers of the flotilla, meanwhile, insisted that participants were unarmed and that +Israeli forces used excessive force. +The timing of the incident had to be viewed with rueful irony among the administration's +Middle East hands. Obama spent this spring damping down concern among American +friends of Israel that his seeming feud with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had +brought the administration to the verge of fundamentally altering the historic U.S. alliance +with the Jewish state.

But now an administration that itself has +expressed its own fury toward Netanyahu and his government in the past now finds itself +close to sharing Israel's isolation at the moment — a dynamic that could complicate +Obama's outreach to the rest of the region. +Israel's traditional critics denounced the raid — the chief Palestinian peace negotiator, +Saeb Erakat, called it a ""war crime"" — but so did some the countries Jerusalem counts as +friendly. Turkey's Prime Minister described the incident as an act of ""inhuman state terror"" +and Ankara withdrew its ambassador to Israel while the Conservative British Foreign +Secretary took the occasion to call the Gaza blockade ""unacceptable and counter- +productive."" +The White House, in sharp contrast, avoided any hint of criticism of the Israeli action in its +public statements, and American officials appeared sympathetic to Israeli explanations +that their soldiers were attacked by flotilla participants. +The U.S. ""deeply regrets the loss of life and injuries sustained"" in the Israeli raid, deputy +White House press secretary Bill Burton said in the first of three carefully-modulated +statements Monday, The administration, he said, is ""working to understand the +circumstances surrounding this tragedy."" +The White House rendition of a call between Obama and Netanyahu also strained to avoid +condemnation, and went out of the way to note that many of those wounded in the +incident ""are being treated in Israeli hospitals."" +Six hours later, State Department spokesman PJ Crowley issued a third statement, adding +that the U.S. expects that the Israeli government — the unstated emphasis was not the +United Nations — ""will conduct a free and credible investigation."" +Crowley added an evenhanded paragraph calling on the Israelis to open Gaza to +humanitarian aid, while simultaneously condemning the militant group Hamas, whose +political control of Gaza prompted the blockade. +""Hamas' interference with international assistance shipments and work of +nongovernmental organizations, and its use and endorsement of violence, complicates +efforts in Gaza,"" Crowley said. +The immediate upshot of the statements from the United States and other countries is that +Obama, perhaps surprisingly, finds himself in the same posture as his predecessors over +the past 60 years — one that holds that the U.S. is far more willing to give the Israelis the +benefit of the doubt on matters of security. +Washington ""is always going to be the most reluctant major global actor to condemn +Israeli excesses, and that is the position President Obama finds himself in right now,"" said +Hussein Ibish, a Senior Fellow at The American Task Force on Palestine. +That position squares with the administration's apparent, reluctant rapprochement with +Israeli's rightist leader — even if that burying of grudges had deep reverberations for the +peace process. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769606 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769606 Date: 08/31/2015 +""After wandering around for 15 months, vacillating between pandering to the Israelis and +trying o punish them, they have decided they have to work out some kind of relationship +with Netanyahu that allows them to do something serious,"" said Aaron David Miller, a +former American peace negotiator. ""They need to weather this crisis with the relationship +with the Israelis north of where it is now."" +The most immediate challenge, Miller said, will be steering a special session of the UN +Security Council — called by Arab members — away from forcing the U.S. either to vote on +condemning Israel's actions or to veto a resolution condemning them. +Observers of the process expect the U.S. to attempt to craft a resolution that doesn't +condemn Israeli directly and doesn't establish any international investigation, like an +earlier inquiry into Israel's actions in Gaza led by the former South African Judge Richard +Goldstone. +Obama and other American officials stressed the need to study the details of the incident, +as the Israeli government pointed to video of passengers on the ship — which was boarded +in international waters — attacking Israeli commandos with what appeared to be chairs and +metal poles. +""At this point, it is unclear what happened and there must be a thorough investigation,"" +Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John Kerry said in a statement. +Others suggested that further probes may not change the initial reactions.

How has Israel, +the only democracy in its region and a symbol of the need for racially inspired violence to end, come to risk any claim to +international legitimacy in its handling of this situation? +Hamas are the enemy of Israel, but they do not have to be. They preach violent resistance too readily, yet over the past +17 months they have been trying to control the militant groups intent on threatening Israel with rockets — imperfectly +perhaps, but not a single Israeli citizen has been killed (alas, one immigrant worker was) by a rocket since the Gaza +bombing stopped in January 2009. They are also the implacable opponents of al-Qaida. They won a fair election in 2006 +and claim to respect democracy. Let's test them on that. At present, Hamas security people are being sniped at by the +Israeli Defence Forces when they try to arrest other militant groups. This is genuinely getting insane. +The unwisdom of reliance on angry military responses is all the clearer when the mood in Palestine, in both the West +Bank and Gaza, is steadily moving towards a negotiated end to the occupation. I am convinced from my own direct +experience that Hamas is prepared to establish and respect a long-term ceasefire so that the talking can start without the +threat of violence, and that they would enter in good faith, if that were reciprocated, into negotiations to establish two +states in the disputed territories, Israel and Palestine, with their own rights and responsibilities under international law. +The distortion of their position, a little of it the fault of their own PR, does no side any good. +If a comprehensive negotiation is too much to expect for now, what about a first step? I believe an arrangement to end the +blockade is within reach if only Israel, Egypt and Gaza would test the possibilities of dialogue. Hamas have indicated that +they could cease all attacks on Israeli soil, close the tunnels, release Gilead Shalit and stop the import of arms into Gaza if +the blockade was ended, an agreed number of Palestinian prisoners were released and Gaza began to be rebuilt. +The Palestinians of course have work to do on their own internal reconciliation, while the relationship between Fatah in +the West Bank and Hamas in Gaza remains so bad. But the UN, the US, Russia, the EU and the Arab world must make a +much more serious attempt to test the possibilities, putting ordinary Israelis and Palestinians first, not their own political +comfort. +We are coming close to losing the chance of a two-state solution. US policy, based on a West-Bank-only approach, is +locked in a cul-de-sac if Gaza is left out of the equation, because majority Palestinian support will be lacking. Israel is +confident in the knowledge that it cannot be militarily defeated. +But that ignores the huge danger of losing the political, diplomatic, legal and moral high ground. This matters in today's +world, as the US and the UK discovered in Iraq, because government authority and public opinion interact closely, and +legitimacy breeds support. +Israel's relationship with Turkey was the key to a broader understanding with the Islamic community and others beyond +the west. That now lies in tatters. If Israel is left as the permanent occupier, or controlling a one-state structure with part of +its population downgraded or imprisoned, it will truly be a disaster for its people and what they stand for. +I hope that Hamas will not sit back and enjoy Israel's discomfiture. They have so far, for a political organisation, attracted +much too narrow a range of international support. If they wish to be widely accepted as a negotiating partner, they must +unequivocally accept the only fully justified condition set by the international Quartet — the cessation of violence — +underline that their objective is a two-state settlement, and win international friends for the ending of the occupation. In +whoever's hands, bombs, bullets, rockets and iron bars will achieve nothing.

They preach violent resistance too readily, yet over the past +17 months they have been trying to control the militant groups intent on threatening Israel with rockets — imperfectly +perhaps, but not a single Israeli citizen has been killed (alas, one immigrant worker was) by a rocket since the Gaza +bombing stopped in January 2009. They are also the implacable opponents of al-Qaida. They won a fair election in 2006 +and claim to respect democracy. Let's test them on that. At present, Hamas security people are being sniped at by the +Israeli Defence Forces when they try to arrest other militant groups. This is genuinely getting insane. +The unwisdom of reliance on angry military responses is all the clearer when the mood in Palestine, in both the West +Bank and Gaza, is steadily moving towards a negotiated end to the occupation. I am convinced from my own direct +experience that Hamas is prepared to establish and respect a long-term ceasefire so that the talking can start without the +threat of violence, and that they would enter in good faith, if that were reciprocated, into negotiations to establish two +states in the disputed territories, Israel and Palestine, with their own rights and responsibilities under international law. +The distortion of their position, a little of it the fault of their own PR, does no side any good. +If a comprehensive negotiation is too much to expect for now, what about a first step? I believe an arrangement to end the +blockade is within reach if only Israel, Egypt and Gaza would test the possibilities of dialogue. Hamas have indicated that +they could cease all attacks on Israeli soil, close the tunnels, release Gilead Shalit and stop the import of arms into Gaza if +the blockade was ended, an agreed number of Palestinian prisoners were released and Gaza began to be rebuilt. +The Palestinians of course have work to do on their own internal reconciliation, while the relationship between Fatah in +the West Bank and Hamas in Gaza remains so bad. But the UN, the US, Russia, the EU and the Arab world must make a +much more serious attempt to test the possibilities, putting ordinary Israelis and Palestinians first, not their own political +comfort. +We are coming close to losing the chance of a two-state solution. US policy, based on a West-Bank-only approach, is +locked in a cul-de-sac if Gaza is left out of the equation, because majority Palestinian support will be lacking. Israel is +confident in the knowledge that it cannot be militarily defeated. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769624 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769624 Date: 08/31/2015 +But that ignores the huge danger of losing the political, diplomatic, legal and moral high ground. This matters in today's +world, as the US and the UK discovered in Iraq, because government authority and public opinion interact closely, and +legitimacy breeds support. +Israel's relationship with Turkey was the key to a broader understanding with the Islamic community and others beyond +the west. That now lies in tatters. If Israel is left as the permanent occupier, or controlling a one-state structure with part of +its population downgraded or imprisoned, it will truly be a disaster for its people and what they stand for. +I hope that Hamas will not sit back and enjoy Israel's discomfiture. They have so far, for a political organisation, attracted +much too narrow a range of international support. If they wish to be widely accepted as a negotiating partner, they must +unequivocally accept the only fully justified condition set by the international Quartet — the cessation of violence — +underline that their objective is a two-state settlement, and win international friends for the ending of the occupation. In +whoever's hands, bombs, bullets, rockets and iron bars will achieve nothing. But a push for justice will. +•This article was originally written for the Times but not published +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769624 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5115,C05769626,FROM BOB BLAKE,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-06-02T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0082/DOC_0C05769626/C05769626.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Wednesday, June 2, 2010 5:10 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769626,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"FYI: +USIBC Launches New Education Initiative to Strengthen K-12, Vocational, and Higher Education Linkages in the U.S. and +India +June 2, 2010 - Washington, DC - On the occasion of its 35th anniversary, and looking ahead to the global economy of +the future, the U.S.-India Business Council (USIBC) today announced the launch of a new initiative aimed at +strengthening institutional linkages between academia, industry and NGOs focusing on the elementary, vocational and +higher education sectors in both countries. +""The United States and India must be committed partners in building the workforce of tomorrow, a partnership that will +unleash opportunity, spur growth and sustain prosperity not just in our countries but across the global community,"" said +Harold McGraw III, incoming USIBC Chairman and Chairman, President and CEO of The McGraw-Hill Companies.

Congressman McGovern also strongly encouraged the Secretary to meet with +representatives of those organizations and individuals being threatened, with a particularly +effort to reach out to and invite the Bishops of Tumaco (Narifio), Barrancabermeja/Medio +Magdalena (Santander), and we would now add Putumayo, since the Colombian Catholic Church +just advised us yesterday of increased death threats against religious workers there. In addition, we +recommended inviting Monsetior Hector Fabio Henao, director of Pastoral Social, at the +Archdiocese in Bogota, who represents all the pastoral work of the Church throughout the country, +as well as representatives from the Mennonite and Lutheran churches, in particular. +While in Colombia, the most important thing the Secretary can do is avoid effusive praise +for President Alvaro Uribe, who leaves office in August. Inside Colombia, the visit by the +Secretary is being described as focusing solely on the free trade agreement and continuing support +of the counterdrug strategy/Plan Colombia. Without changes in the human rights situation and the +culture of impunity, it is unlikely that anything the Secretary might say or do will alter the equation +on Capitol Hill regarding the trade agreement. It should be noted that the October 2008 GAO +report on the counter-drug operations in Colombia concluded that U.S. assistance was successful in +increasing security in parts of the country, but a failure in the areas of counter-narcotics (GAO-09- +71) and a subsequent April 2009 USAID evaluation on U.S. aid for Plan Colombia for illegal crop +reduction and Colombian countemarcotics policies actually contribute to increased coca +production. +The Colombian president has been a solid backer of U.S. policy and U.S. interests in the +region, and has achieved some important improvements in the country's security situation. It is +important to recognize that, but to do so without repeating the tone of Defense Secretary Gates' +April visit, in which he called Uribe a ""great hero"" and failed even to mention any concerns. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769638 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769638 Date: 08/31/2015 +These concerns are of critical importance, and while the Secretary need not list them all, at +least some deserve public acknowledgement — some recognition that it is important to the United +States that Colombia, including the current government and its successor, show the necessary +political will to deal with them: +• A sharp rise in alleged military killings of civilians. In many cases, these are so-called ""false +positives"": non-combatants murdered and later presented as members of armed groups killed +in combat. These, notes UN Special Rapporter for Extrajudicial Executions Philip Alston, +""began occurring with a disturbing frequency across Colombia from 2004."" Citing +prosecutors' and NGOs' reports, Alston indicates that Colombia's security forces may have +killed 1,486 civilians during the first six years of Alvaro Uribe's presidency. Alston notes +that the Defense Ministry only began to address the situation after the media broke the story +of the false-positives and the subsequent negative publicity and horrified public outcry. +The prosecution of ""false positives"" is moving with excruciating slowness. In perhaps the +most notorious case — the murders of about twenty young men from the poor Bogota suburb +of Soacha — nearly all of the accused soldiers and officers have been released from prison, +pending trial, as deadlines for timely prosecution have run out. Since their arrest in late 2008, +their case has been prolonged by numerous delaying tactics by the defense, including +attempts to have their cases tried in the military court system as ""acts of service."" Alston +reports that the impunity rate on these extrajudicial murders by security forces may be as +high as 98.5 percent. +• Mounting allegations that the President's intelligence service, the DAS, was put at the +service of paramilitary leaders and narcotraffickers; used to spy on and intimidate Supreme +Court justices, opposition politicians, journalists and human rights defenders; and employed +in a campaign of sabotage and smears against political opponents. +Prosecutors are alleging that the orders to have the DAS carry out wiretaps, surveillance and +""political warfare"" came from high up in the Colombian presidency, though the question of +""what President Uribe knew, and when he knew it"" remains unanswered. Meanwhile efforts +to reform or dissolve the DAS are stalled in Colombia's Congress. +• President Uribe's political coalition has also been hit by a scandal known in Colombia +as ""para-politics."" This coalition has included dozens of political bosses from regions +beyond the capital. Many are large landholders with ties to narcotrafficking, the same local +leaders who created and fostered the brutal pro-government paramilitary groups that killed +tens of thousands of non-combatants in the 1990s and early 2000s. +Evidence, much of it from former paramilitary leaders, has brought about 300 criminal +investigations against legislators, governors, mayors and other local officials, nearly all of +them Alvaro Uribe's political supporters, who made common cause with the far-right +warlords. To date, of the 278 congresspeople and senators elected in 2006, 68 are under +official investigation, on trial, or convicted for paramilitary ties. Those embroiled in +parapolitics include the President's cousin, Mario Uribe; the brother of his former foreign +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769638 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769638 Date: 08/31/2015 +minister; and individuals whom the President had named to be Colombia's ambassadors to +Chile, the Dominican Republic, and Canada. +The Colombian prosecutors, investigators, witnesses and non-governmental organizations +trying to uncover the truth about these abuses are working under conditions of great personal risk. +They, too, are heroes and would benefit greatly from a public expression of concern about the +cases they are investigating, and a reminder that their work is legitimate and important to +U.S. interests in Colombia. +At the same time, it is important to avoid appearing to endorse any candidate in the June +20 runoff elections. Between the first and second rounds of a country' s presidential election is a +politically awkward time for a high-level official visit. Though President Uribe's former defense +minister, Juan Manuel Santos, is the overwhelming favorite given his margin of success in the May +301first round of balloting over former Bogota mayor Antanas Mockus, it is necessary at this stage +to convey a sense of balance and a willingness to work closely with whoever wins. As a result, any +kind words for one candidate should be balanced by praise for the other. +Finally, it would be helpful to remind the Colombian people that the United States +supports a peaceful resolution of Bogota's worsening differences with Venezuela. While +President Chavez' s behavior is a significant concern, it would be most unhelpful to be perceived on +this trip as fanning the flames of conflict with Colombia — or playing into the Chavez rhetoric that +the U.S. and Colombia have military aspirations in the region. +Hope this memo, along with last week's copy of the TLHRC letter to Assistant Secretary +Posner, are helpful and useful materials for the Secretary as she plans her trip. +Very best wishes — +On behalf of Cong.

Alston +reports that the impunity rate on these extrajudicial murders by security forces may be as +high as 98.5 percent. +• Mounting allegations that the President's intelligence service, the DAS, was put at the +service of paramilitary leaders and narcotraffickers; used to spy on and intimidate Supreme +Court justices, opposition politicians, journalists and human rights defenders; and employed +in a campaign of sabotage and smears against political opponents. +Prosecutors are alleging that the orders to have the DAS carry out wiretaps, surveillance and +""political warfare"" came from high up in the Colombian presidency, though the question of +""what President Uribe knew, and when he knew it"" remains unanswered. Meanwhile efforts +to reform or dissolve the DAS are stalled in Colombia's Congress. +• President Uribe's political coalition has also been hit by a scandal known in Colombia +as ""para-politics."" This coalition has included dozens of political bosses from regions +beyond the capital. Many are large landholders with ties to narcotrafficking, the same local +leaders who created and fostered the brutal pro-government paramilitary groups that killed +tens of thousands of non-combatants in the 1990s and early 2000s. +Evidence, much of it from former paramilitary leaders, has brought about 300 criminal +investigations against legislators, governors, mayors and other local officials, nearly all of +them Alvaro Uribe's political supporters, who made common cause with the far-right +warlords. To date, of the 278 congresspeople and senators elected in 2006, 68 are under +official investigation, on trial, or convicted for paramilitary ties. Those embroiled in +parapolitics include the President's cousin, Mario Uribe; the brother of his former foreign +minister; and individuals whom the President had named to be Colombia's ambassadors to +Chile, the Dominican Republic, and Canada. +The Colombian prosecutors, investigators, witnesses and non-governmental organizations +trying to uncover the truth about these abuses are working under conditions of great personal risk. +They, too, are heroes and would benefit greatly from a public expression of concern about the +cases they are investigating, and a reminder that their work is legitimate and important to +U.S. interests in Colombia. +At the same time, it is important to avoid appearing to endorse any candidate in the June +20 runoff elections. Between the first and second rounds of a country's presidential election is a +politically awkward time for a high-level official visit. Though President Uribe's former defense +minister, Juan Manuel Santos, is the overwhelming favorite given his margin of success in the May +30th first round of balloting over former Bogota mayor Antanas Mockus, it is necessary at this stage +to convey a sense of balance and a willingness to work closely with whoever wins. As a result, any +kind words for one candidate should be balanced by praise for the other. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769640 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769640 Date: 08/31/2015 +Finally, it would be helpful to remind the Colombian people that the United States +supports a peaceful resolution of Bogota's worsening differences with Venezuela.

At the best of times, an Israeli +government that pursues the path to peace provides some intelligence, some minor advances in military +technology, and a potential source of stabilizing military power that could help Arab states like Jordan. Even +then, however, any actual Israeli military intervention in an Arab state could prove as destabilizing as +beneficial. The fact is that the real motives behind America's commitment to Israel are moral and ethical. They +are a reaction to the horrors of the Holocaust, to the entire history of Western anti-Semitism, and to the United +States' failure to help German and European Jews during the period before it entered World War II. They are a +product of the fact that Israel is a democracy that shares virtually all of the same values as the United States. +The U.S. commitment to Israel is not one that will be abandoned. The United States has made this repeatedly +clear since it first recognized Israel as a state, and it has steadily strengthened the scale of its commitments since +1967. The United States has provided Israel with massive amounts of economic aid and still provides enough +military assistance to preserve Israel's military superiority over its neighbors. The United States has made it +clear that any U.S. support for Arab-Israeli peace efforts must be based on options that preserve Israel's +security, and its recent announcements that it will consider ""extended regional deterrence"" are code words for a +U.S. commitment that could guard Israel, as well as its neighbors, against an Iranian nuclear threat. +At the same time, the depth of America's moral commitment does not justify or excuse actions by an Israeli +government that unnecessarily make Israel a strategic liability when it should remain an asset. It does not mean +that the United States should extend support to an Israeli government when that government fails to credibly +pursue peace with its neighbors. It does not mean that the United States has the slightest interest in supporting +Israeli settlements in the West Bank, or that the United States should take a hard-line position on Jerusalem that +would effectively make it a Jewish rather than a mixed city. It does not mean that the United States should be +passive when Israel makes a series of major strategic blunders--such as persisting in the strategic bombing of +Lebanon during the Israeli-Hezbollah conflict, escalating its attack on Gaza long after it had achieved its key +objectives, embarrassing the U.S. president by announcing the expansion of Israeli building programs in east +Jerusalem at a critical moment in U.S. efforts to put Israeli-Palestinian peace talks back on track, or sending +commandos to seize a Turkish ship in a horribly mismanaged effort to halt the ""peace flotilla"" going to Gaza. +It is time Israel realized that it has obligations to the United States, as well as the United States to Israel, and +that it become far more careful about the extent to which it test the limits of U.S. patience and exploits the +support of American Jews. This does not mean taking a single action that undercuts Israeli security, but it does +mean realizing that Israel should show enough discretion to reflect the fact that it is a tertiary U.S. strategic +interest in a complex and demanding world. +Israel's government should act on the understanding that the long-term nature of the U.S.-Israel strategic +relationship will depend on Israel clearly and actively seeking peace with the Palestinians—the kind of peace +that is in Israel's own strategic interests. Israelis should understand that the United States opposes expansion +and retention of its settlements and its efforts to push Palestinians out of greater Jerusalem. Israeli governments +should plan Israeli military actions that make it clear that Israel will use force only to the level actually required, +that carefully consider humanitarian issues from the start, and that have a clear post-combat plan of action to +limit the political and strategic impact of its use of force. And Israel should not conduct a high-risk attack on +Iran in the face of the clear U.S. ""red light"" from both the Bush and Obama administrations. Israel should be +sensitive to the fact that its actions directly affect U.S. strategic interests in the Arab and Muslim worlds, and it +must be as sensitive to U.S. strategic concerns as the United States is to those of Israel. +The United States does not need unnecessary problems in one of the most troubled parts of the +world, particularly when Israeli actions take a form that does not serve Israel's own strategic interests. This +Israeli government in particular needs to realize that as strong as U.S.-Israel ties may be, it is time to return to +the kind of strategic realism exemplified by leaders like Yitzhak Rabin. No aspect of what happened this week +off the coast of Gaza can be blamed on Israeli commandos or the Israel Defense Forces. Israel's prime minister +and defense minister had full warning about the situation, and they knew the flotilla was deliberately designed +as a political provocation to capture the attention of the world's media in the most negative way possible.

The IDF Detailed Its Violent Strategy In Advance. +On 06.03.10, By Max Blumenthal +Tel Aviv-Israel Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his senior ministers have attempted to blame army +commanders for ""the bungled raid on a Gaza-bound flotilla,"" according to the UK's Daily Telegraph. The AP reported that +""Israel's bloody, bungled takeover of a Gaza-bound Turkish aid vessel is complicating US-led Mideast peace efforts."" And +according to Reuters, ""Israeli military admits errors in bungled boarding."" +But was the raid really bungled? Did the Israeli military command and Netanyahu government have no clear strategy +going in? Or was the violence they meted out against the flotilla activists deliberate and methodically planned? +Statements by senior Israeli military commanders made in the Hebrew media days before the massacre revealed that the +raid was planned over a week in advance by the Israeli military and was personally approved by Prime Minister Benjamin +Netanyahu and Minister of Defense Ehud Barak. The elite Israeli commando unit known as Unit 13 was tasked with +carrying out the mission and its role was known by the Israeli public well before the raid took place. Details of the plan +show that the use of deadly force was authorized and calculated. The massacre of activists should not have been +unexpected. +On May 28, three days before the raid, top Israeli military officials revealed details of their strategy to Maariv, Israel's most +widely circulated paper. The caption of the Maariv article reflected the military command's plan to use force: ""On the way +to violence; one of the boats is on its way."" +Here is a translation of relevant portions of the article: +Maariv, 5/28/10 P. 4 +Title: Head to Head in the Heart of the Sea +Caption: On the way to violence; one of the boats is on its way."" +Subhead: The sea encounter that will occur at the end of the weekend is already planned detail by detail. From the +moment that the ships will pass the ""red line"" on their way to Gaza, the fighters of Unit 13 will take control and transfer 800 +passengers from their boats back to where they came from. And special arrest units were set up. +From the body of article: This operation was approved by Prime Minister Netanyahu and Defense Minister Barak and will +be led by the commander of the Navy, Lieutenant Colonel Eliezer Maron, who is nicknamed ""Cheney."" If the people +aboard the boats will not agree to turn around, the operation will transfer to the stage of force. ""We are afraid that +there will be a terror attack by the boats,"" said a high ranking officer. ""If terrorists have gotten on the boats or if there is an +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 +intention to use hot weapons against our forces, we7will use full seriousness and caution.

""- • +After the initial violent stages, the pibn called +-""fo +- r the gathering of the activists' ""fighting tools,"" an acknowledghlent by the +Israeli military that the, saYists might try to repel its commandos once they forced their way on the ships. The plan to +search for ""sabbiage materials"" also foreshadowed the IDF's post-raid propaganda campaign. +An alternative plan that would have been likely to avert violence could have been set into motion. The Israeli Navy could +have done what it had in the past and hijacked the aid ships without boarding them, then towed them to shore. However, +the Rambo-style plan concocted by Netanyahu, his top aides and the Naval commander with the unfortunate nickname of +""Cheney"" made the killing of activists likely, if not inevitable. +Why didn't Israel's leaders choose to deal with the flotilla in a more judicious fashion? Were they that stupid, or just crazy? +From the details of the plan it appears that Netanyahu and his cohorts had envisioned Entebbe Part Deux, a daring anti- +terror raid that would lift the sinking morale of the Israeli public while intimidating Iran and the Arab world. Though Israel +may be more isolated than ever as a result of the massacre, the Netanyahu administration is reaping considerable +political benefits at home. +The day after the massacre, spontaneous celebrations broke out in Ashdod, Tel Aviv, and throughout the country, +bringing together right-wing elements with everyday Israelis. Over a thousand Israelis gathered tonight outside the Turkish +embassy in Tel Aviv to rally against the Turkish government and express their support for the raid. Multiple demonstrators +including one man who has lived in Israel for 60 years told me, ""What Turkey [the sponsor of the Mavi Marmara boat] has +done is great. I have never seen this country more united in my entire life. We are all standing together now."" (Video +coming soon). +Israeli newscasters are routinely using the term ""mechabel,"" or terrorist, to refer to the flotilla activists, while the violence +that broke out on the deck of the Mavi Marmara is called ""the lynch."" (Nevermind that zero commandos were hung and +nine activists were killed, including an American citizen who was shot in the head four times.) No evidence is required to +support claims in the Israeli media. The public desperately wants to believe that its government is right, so much so that +Israel's media is not even making a token effort to challenge the increasingly hysterical press releases disseminated by +the IDF press office every few hours. +Hanin Zoabi, a Palestinian-Israeli member of the Knesset who was on the Mavi Marmara, was physically accosted in the +Knesset by fellow legislators for attempting to relate her experience aboard the flotilla. MK Miri Regev of Likud called her a +""traitor,"" while Yoel Hasson of Kadima, a supposedly centrist party, denounced Zoabi as a ""terrorist."" An Israeli Facebook +group devoted to inciting Zoabi's assassination has gathered 600 members in just a day and a half. In the meantime, +Israel's Interior Minster Eli Yishai is ""looking into"" means of stripping Zoabi of her citizenship. +This Friday, anti-occupation activists expect to encounter intense violence from the Israeli Army and Border Police at the +weekly demonstrations in Sheikh Jarrah and Nebi Salah. ""In this atmosphere, you can expect with pretty reasonable +certainty that the soldiers Will go crazy,"" a veteran of the Sheikh Jarrah protest movement told me. +With two more ships on their way towards Gaza with aid for the besieged civilian population, the Israeli military and +Netanyahu administration are not wasting time in hatching a new strategy to stop them. Once again, the plan calls for +violence and possibly more death. ""Next time we'll use more force,"" a top Naval commander told the Jerusalem Post. ""We +will have to come prepared in the future as if it was a war."" +Washington Post +The U.S. needs to keep nudging Israel on a Gaza fix +By David Ignatius +Friday, June 4,2010; A19 +The Obama administration, caught between two allies during this week of crisis, has signaled Israel and Turkey +that the blockade of Gaza should be loosened to allow more humanitarian aid to reach the Palestinian +population there. +From the first news early Monday of the Israeli commando attack on a flotilla of Turkish relief ships, the White +House has been trying to balance the interests of two prickly friends. The immediate aim, said a senior official, +has been to ""defuse the electricity of the moment"" by freeing the ships' passengers and passing a U.N. resolution +calling (in fuzzy language) for an investigation of the raid. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 +Beyond crisis management, administration officials have begun to urge Israel to use this incident to untangle the +Gaza mess. U.S. officials hope Israel will take action on its own, before international condemnation grows any +louder or another relief convoy tests the blockade. ""The humanitarian aperture is not wide enough,"" argues the +U.S. official. ""We need to convince the Israelis that not everything can be made into a weapon."" +The Obama team recognizes that Israel will act in its interests, but it wants Jerusalem to consider U.S. interests, +as well. The administration has communicated at a senior level its fear that the Israelis sometimes ""care about +their equities, but not about ours."" +This cautionary message -- that Israel must act as a more reliable and responsible partner -- may be the most +important one conveyed this week. +One issue on which the administration believes Israel would benefit from a more farsighted view is the +investigation of the incident. Israel has argued that this is a purely internal matter for the Israeli military, whose +operations to enforce the Gaza blockade were lawful and appropriate. +But by defying calls for an international inquiry, the Israelis will compound their isolation. ""They have an +image problem, a perception problem,"" says the U.S. official. The White House hopes the Israelis will embrace +some mechanism for an international probe -- perhaps a French proposal for an inquiry by the International +Committee of the Red Cross. Such a move would be in Israel's interest, the administration believes. +The trickiest problem in the first hours of the crisis was dealing with Turkey, whose leaders treated the +commando raid as a pirate attack on Turkish citizens. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and Gen. Jim +Jones, the national security adviser, met with Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu. Then came a lengthy +phone call between President Obama and Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan. +Obama told Erdogan that ""we need to find a solution"" for the Gaza humanitarian problem, according to a U.S. +official. Erdogan is said to have agreed with the president that a good relationship between Israel and Turkey +was crucial for regional stability -- and that Turkey didn't want to see any further degradation. +The Obama administration deserves credit for its repair work in the first days after the Gaza attack. But this is +another example where the administration has been reacting to events that it should have tried better to control. +The Gaza confrontation has been developing for weeks; administration officials reportedly cautioned Israel +about provocative moves, but not emphatically enough to make a difference. U.S. officials were blindsided +about the commando operation partly because they don't spy on a key ally. +Similarly, the Obama White House has been too reactive in its relationship with Turkey. A glaring example of +this diplomatic drift is the Turkish mediation effort with Iran to revive an October plan for enrichment of +uranium abroad. Davutoglu thought he had Obama's blessing for his shuttle diplomacy, and the White House +was given frequent updates. But when Turkey and Brazil announced they had clinched the deal, the +administration did the diplomatic equivalent of shrugging its shoulders -- and went ahead with plans for U.N. +sanctions. +One of the perverse secrets of Middle East diplomacy is the importance of riding several horses at once. In the +heyday of Henry Kissinger's shuttle mediation, the Americans were the supreme masters of playing both sides +of the street. +Obama has been talking about engagement and mediation but without much to show for it. Instead, the +administration has been responding to events rather than driving them. That won't do. As former ambassador +Chas. W. Freeman says in his collection of aphorisms, ""The Diplomat's Dictionary"": ""If you're not at the table, +you're on the menu."" +Published on The New Republic (http://www.tnr.com) +Operation Make the World Hate Us +The assault on the 'Mavi Marmara' was wrong, and a gift to Israel's enemies. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 +• Leon Wieseltier +• June 3, 2010 I +Israel does not need enemies: it has itself. Or more precisely: it has its government. The Netanyahu-Barak +government has somehow found a way to lose the moral high ground, the all-important war for symbols and +meanings, to Hamas. That is quite an accomplishment. Operation Make the World Hate Us, it might have been +called. +I leave it to others to make the operational criticisms of the Israeli action, and will say only that even my +amateurish understanding of the tactical challenge posed by the interdiction of the boats suffices to suggest that +there were other ways to do this. I also will not pretend to a perfect grasp of what happened on board the Mavi +Marmara. I have pondered the videos that both sides have released, and concluded that the Israeli soldiers +sliding down that rope had no intention of attacking the people on board and that the people on board had no +way of being confident of this. I cannot expect Palestinians and their supporters to believe the best about the +Israeli army. (This is what Israeli hardliners call ""the restoration of deterrence."") I do not doubt that some of the +activists on the ship welcomed a confrontation with Israel, but the Israelis should not have obliged them. In any +event, what took place on that deck looks to me like a tragic misunderstanding. Yet there was no reason to think +that anything else would have transpired. +The important point is that the killing of civilians on the Mavi Marmara—I understand that they were ""armed"" +with metal bars and a knife, but still they were civilians, and soldiers are trained to respond unlethally to the +recklessness of a mob—cannot be extenuated by reference to ""asymmetrical warfare"" and Israel's right to +defend itself. This was not warfare, at least of the physical sort. Israel was not under attack. A headline in The +Washington Post yesterday reported that ""Israel says Free Gaza Movement poses threat to Jewish state."" Such a +claim is absurd. It is true that the movement has grown in recent years, and is now troublesome to Israel's +policy in Gaza; and it is also true that the Turkish charity that sponsored the ""Freedom Flotilla"" has ties to +Islamicist groups. But this is hardly what Israel likes to call, in the Iranian context, and there quite plausibly, an +""existential threat."" The extension of the definition of a security threat to include hostile activities that have +little or no bearing upon security is an ominous development. +It is also the inevitable consequence of Benjamin Netanyahu's cunning pronouncement last year that Israel is +now endangered by ""the Iran threat, the missile threat, and the threat I call the Goldstone threat."" The +equivalence was morally misleading, and therefore dangerous. Ideological warfare is not military warfare. I +have studied the entirety of the Goldstone Report, and whereas I do not doubt (and wrote in this magazine in the +days before Goldstone) that Operation Cast Lead caused the unjustifiable death of non-combatants, I also do not +doubt that the Goldstone Report, which was nastily indifferent to Israel's security predicament and to the ethical +challenges of Israeli self-defense, was an instrument in a broad campaign of delegitimation against Israel—and +yet the threat of delegitimation is not like the threat of destruction. It is different in kind. A commando +operation is not an appropriate response to an idea. ""This was no Love Boat,"" Netanyahu said yesterday. ""It was +a hate boat."" He is right, but so what? The threat of delegitimation is not a military problem and it does not have +a military solution. And the attempt to give it a military solution has now had the awful consequence of making +the threat still greater. The assault on the Mavi Marmara was a stupid gift to the delegitimators. +You do not have to be a general to grasp these distinctions. In fact, judging by Israel's recent history, it might +help not to be one. But the militarization of the Israeli government's understanding of Israel's situation—this +has been the most sterile period for diplomacy in all of Israel's history—is not all that led to the debacle at sea. +Rules of military engagement that allow soldiers to fire on political activists (I leave aside the question of their +humanitarianism for a moment) may signify something still deeper and even more troubling. It is hard not to +conclude from this Israeli action, and also from other Israeli actions in recent years, that the Israeli leadership +simply does not care any longer about what anybody thinks. It does not seem to care about what even the +United States—its only real friend, even in the choppy era of Obama—thinks. This is not defiance, it is despair. +The Israeli leadership seems to have given up any expectation of fairness and sympathy from the world. It is +behaving as if it believes, in the manner of the most perilous Jewish pessimism, that the whole world hates the +Jews, and that is all there is to it. This is the very opposite of the measured and empirical attitude, the search for +strategic opportunity, the enlistment of imagination in the service of ideals and interests, that is required for +statecraft. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 +The complication—the one that deprives anybody who acknowledges it of membership in any of the gangs of +commentary—is that there is a partial basis in the actually existing world for a degree of Israeli pessimism. +There are leaders, states, organizations, and peoples whose hostility to the Jewish state is irrational and absolute +and in some cases murderous. Things are said critically about Israel that wildly burst the bounds of thoughtful +criticism. The language in which Israel is described by some governments and international organizations is +lurid and grotesque and foul. Anti-Semitic tropes—the conspiracy theory about the Jews, most conspicuously— +are regularly encountered in otherwise respectable places. The analysis of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that +absolves the Palestinians of any significant role in it is widespread. I do not see how any of this can be denied, +or shunted aside, or explained entirely in terms of Israeli behavior. But it is emphatically not the whole picture, +except for those Israelis and Jews whose political interests and ideological inclinations prefer it to be the whole +picture. For there are forces in Israel, and in its government, that have a use for Jewish hopelessness. +There is a verse in Numbers that Jewish pessimists like to cite: ""the people shall dwell alone, and not be +reckoned among the nations."" It is Balaam's divinely inspired description of the Israelites—Balaam, who came +to curse and stayed to bless. But I have always regarded it as a curse, this promise of loneliness. I have heard it +intoned lachrymosely and proudly—in our time Jewish pride has a disturbingly parasitic relationship with +Jewish lachrymosity—all my life. It chills me to the bone. It is a locution for prophets, not prime ministers. The +Jews cannot dwell alone. In fact, their history shows that they never did dwell alone. It is not a tale of insularity +and isolation. The apartness of the Jews was never a complete secession from their environment. The +engagement of the Jews with the world was a matter not only of practical necessity, but also of theological +conviction. And not even the darkest and most dire adversity succeeded in driving them entirely into +themselves. +When, in the modern era, the Zionists concluded, quite correctly, that the Jews must extract themselves from +anti-Semitic societies and establish a society of their own, a sovereign one, in the land of Israel, it was in part to +""normalize"" them by making them ""reckoned among the nations,"" and therefore like other nations. Zionism was +a reversal of Balaam's phony blessing. The state was not supposed to be a bunker, even if it had enemies. But +Netanyahu is a creature of the bunker. He talks about peace, but not like a man who hungers for it. He takes no +steps toward peace except as the consequence of a crisis—a crisis not with the Palestinians but with the +Americans. He liturgically intones his warnings, some of them true, about the external dangers facing Israel, +and mistakes brutishness for toughness, and offers nothing. He is a gray, muddling, reactive figure. His +preferred strategy for his country is: one quiet week after another unto eternity. His problem is that there are not +many quiet weeks. +But about those activists: a great deal of bathetic rubbish has been written about them. Insofar as they were +bringing food and medicine to Gaza, they were humanitarians; but insofar as they were striking a blow for the +government of Gaza, they were anti-humanitarians. A real ""Freedom Flotilla"" would have sailed for Gaza to +liberate it from its rulers. For Hamas stifles Gaza from within even as Israel stifles it from without. It oppresses +the Palestininans who live under its sway and has brought them ruin. When did it become progressive to support +a theocracy? Consider the case of Henning Mankell, the Swedish writer of thrillers (and the son-in-law of +Ingmar Bergman) who was a passenger on one of the boats in the ""Freedom Flotilla."" In his youth he took part +in anti-Vietnam and anti-apartheid demonstrations, presumably in the spirit of secular reason. For a while he +lived in Norway and participated in the activities of a radical Maoist party: let us call that secular unreason. +Now he does the work of Hamas and its mullahs. Last year Mankell attended the Palestine Festival of Literature +in east Jerusalem—or would have attended it, if the Israeli authorities had not idiotically closed it down. When +he returned to Sweden, he wrote that ""there is a straight line between Soweto, Sharpeville, and what recently +happened [I presume he was referring to the war] in Gaza."" And: ""Is it strange that some [Palestinians] in pure +desperation, when they cannot see any other way out, decide to become suicide bombers? Not really. Maybe it +is strange that there are not more of them."" And: ""The state of Israel in its current form has no future. Moreover, +those who advocate a two-state solution have not got it right. ... The question is whether it will be possible to +talk sense into the Israelis in order for them to willingly accept the end of their own apartheid state."" This man +has rights, at sea and on land, but he can hardly be lauded as a champion of peace and reconciliation. You are +not for co-existence if you advocate the disappearance of one of the terms. (Consider, analogously, the recent +adventures of Noam Chomsky in the region. It was widely noted that the Israelis, again idiotically, turned him +away at the Allenby Bridge. It was less widely noted that a few days later a reporter for The New York Times +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 +accidentally discovered him in Lebanon at the home of Nabil Qaouk, the deputy head of Hezbollah, which is +not what Voltaire had in mind.) +And yet the screw must be turned again: the anti-Israeli virulence of Henning Mankell and his maritime +comrades does not make Israel's assault on the Mavi Marmara more just or more wise. Now the Israeli +government may find it impossible not to modify or even to lift the blockade of Gaza—an outcome that no +decent person can decry, as long as Hamas does not exploit the respite to acquire weapons or what it needs to +make them, and the past is not encouraging in this regard. Netanyahu will do what he can to get past the mess, +hoping that the approach of the midterm elections in the United States will rescue him from the pressure, and +the deadening hand of the status quo will be back. And Israel will be known to more and more people—in a +wounding misrepresentation—mainly for cruelty. +Leon Wieseltier is the literary editor of The New Republic. +For more TNR, become a fan on Facebook and follow us on Twitter. +Source URL: http://www.tnncom/article/politics/75287/operation-make-the-world-hate-us +http://www.nvtimes.com/2010/06/04/opinion/104mideast.html?ref=opinion +To the Editor: +Nicholas D.

And it would +certainly not initiate bloody conflict. +Mr. Ben-Gurion told me that Israel would regret maintaining control of Arab-inhabited regions and another people after the +1967 Six-Day War. He said the war would never end as long as Israel occupied the area, an occupation he felt was both +strategically and morally wrong. +And if succeeding right-wing governments had taken his advice, the war might well have been over years ago, preventing +Hamas from ruling Gaza, giving Iran no excuse for threatening Israel with nuclear destruction, and making life much +easier for the United States. +The Israeli assault on the pro-Palestinian flotilla is a symbolic result of the tragic survival-imperiling refutation by Israeli +right-wingers of the visionary views of their country's two greatest leaders. +Dan Kurzman +North Bergen, N.J., June 3, 2010 +The writer is the author of biographies of Yitzhak Rabin and David Ben-Gurion. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769651 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5132,C05769655,(AP) SOUTH KOREA SEEKS UN ACTION AGAINST NORTH KOREA OVER SHIP,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-06-04T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0082/DOC_0C05769655/C05769655.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Fw: (AP) South Korea seeks UN action against North Korea over ship,,"Abedin, Huma ",SES-O_Shift-II,"Friday, June 4, 2010 11:39 AM",F-2014-20439,C05769655,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769655 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE +IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Friday, June 4, 2010 11:39 AM +To: +Subject: Fw: (AP) South Korea seeks UN action against North Korea over ship +From: Withers, Anne M +To: NEWS-Mahogany; NEWS-Korea +Cc: SES-O_Shift-II +Sent: Fri Jun 04 11:34:59 2010 +Subject: (AP) South Korea seeks UN action against North Korea over ship +UNITED NATIONS (AP) - South Korea has handed over a letter officially referring North Korea to the UN Security Council +over the ship sinking.

In 1974, Murtha became the first combat veteran of the Vietnam War elected to Congress.

But frustration over the Iraq war led him to call for an immediate pullout of U.S. troops in 2005.

Within hours of the Israeli assault on an aid +ship bound for Gaza, while the dead and wounded were still being evacuated from the +scene, Israel's deputy foreign minister delivered a verbal broadside that became his +nation's public line: The flotilla organizers are terrorist sympathizers, they ambushed +Israeli forces, and they are responsible for what followed. +Even so adept a communicator as Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, in a prepared +statement Wednesday that attacked Israel's critics as much as it defended Israel's +actions, could manage only one sentence of regret for civilian casualties. +Why, even to its friends, has Israel sounded so shrill, even tone deaf? Where are the +grief and sadness that Israelis ought to feel about a military operation gone awry? The +French philosopher Bernard-Henri Levy expressed anger with the tendency of some +Israeli leaders to believe that ""they are alone in the world and will always be blamed, +and to act accordingly."" +Israel's friends know that the country has a case to make. But by hunkering down in self- +justification, Israel has confused that case. And now the jury of world public opinion, +comprising at least as many friends as foes, has stopped listening. At the United +Nations, speaker after speaker condemned Israel's action, and even the United States +joined in a harsh statement of condemnation. Normally pro-Israel editorial writers +added to the chorus of ostracism. +Israel has long seen itself as the Alamo, a fortress under siege. Decades ago, a song titled +""The Entire World is Against Us"" hit the Israeli pop charts. At the time, there was some +truth to the words: Arab states rejected Israel's existence. An Arab economic boycott +persuaded major companies in Europe and Asia to decline to do business in Israel. +Trade with many countries had to be conducted through third parties. +Indeed, Israel has faced recurring threats to its security and existence, a reality reflected +in a maxim I heard often during my time as U.S. ambassador there early this decade: +Israel goes to sleep with memories of the Holocaust and wakes up to the Arab-Israeli +conflict. In this context, the nation's military power was seen as a necessary response. +And in turn, Israel's narrative portrayed the country as a David facing an Arab Goliath. +Although the 1967 war changed this reality, Israel's narrative never really caught up. +Newly demonstrated military superiority and deepening ties with the United States +provided a measure of security the country had not enjoyed before. Egypt's President +Anwar Sadat was the first Arab leader to recognize this new strategic reality, and in +1979, he made peace with Israel. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769717 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769717 Date: 08/31/2015 +But even as the outdated David vs. Goliath theme lingered in the minds of many Israelis, +among other segments of the population a new, religious-national narrative that +centered on settling and holding all of Eretz Israel was taking hold. Even though +settlements complicated Israel's relations with the Palestinians, and even though Israel +had evacuated the Sinai settlements to make peace with Egypt -- a move that vitiated the +argument that settlements were required for security -- activists such as Ariel Sharon +continued to argue that they enhanced security. +For a while, conditions allowed this new narrative to take root: The Palestine Liberation +Organization was busy attacking Israel from Jordan, Lebanon and the United Nations +and pursuing a tactical moderation designed to lull Israel into complacency. +But soon this reality, too, began to change. The PLO decided in 1988 to officially support +a two-state solution to the conflict and entered into dialogue with the United States. In +1991, Arab states participated in multilateral negotiations with Israel on water, the +environment, economic development and regional security. Arab and Israeli business +leaders met at international conferences. Israel's diplomatic isolation eased as China, +India and others established formal ties, and Israeli liaison offices opened in Morocco +and Arab states in the Persian Gulf. In 1994, Jordan made peace, removing the security +justification for Israeli settlements in the West Bank. And in 2002, Arab states +announced an ""Arab peace initiative"" offering peace and security in return for Israel's +withdrawal from lands taken in the 1967 war. +But the Palestinian intifada put a brake on these developments, ushering in a decade of +violence. As Palestinian terrorists attacked not only soldiers and settlers in the occupied +territories, but also civilians in Israeli cities, the Israeli storyline of the 1950s -- David vs. +Goliath -- revived. +I arrived in Israel as the U.S. ambassador in 2001, right after the first Palestinian suicide +bombing, and discussed these issues often with then-Prime Minister Sharon, usually in +the context of the choices Israel made in dealing with terrorism. Sharon believed that a +strong and unyielding military response was all that was needed to persuade +Palestinians to stop the intifada. A terrorist attack in Tel Aviv would often lead him to +impose a closure on Gaza, preventing the movement of people and goods. +A typical conversation with Sharon on this subject went something as follows: I would +suggest that the closure on Gaza would be seen by the media and even friendly +governments as collective punishment, would shift the media's story line from +Palestinian violence to Israel's reaction and could even drive Palestinians hurt by the +closure into the terrorist camp. Sharon would reply that his responsibility was to protect +Israelis, that the Gaza closure was designed to prevent further attacks and that the +media were to blame for distorting reality. +His underlying point was clear: Any impact on Israel's image and on the long-term +possibility of a widened conflict was outweighed by the need to prevent the next suicide +bombing. Whatever the consequences of its actions, Israel would not apologize for +defending itself. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769717 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769717 Date: 08/31/2015 +Netanyahu would echo this refrain almost a decade later, after years marked not only by +the intifada but by an Israeli decision to build a security barrier. The decade saw a brutal +war in Lebanon in 2006, sparked by Hezbollah's kidnapping and killing of Israeli +soldiers and ended by Israel's destruction of Lebanese civilian infrastructure and +significant civilian casualties. The decade saw Hamas's election victory in 2006, its +violent takeover of Gaza in 2007, its unrelenting rocket attacks against Israel in 2008 +and Israel's massive response, again involving great numbers of civilian casualties and +the destruction of infrastructure. By decade's end, a frustrated Israel had sealed off and +blockaded Gaza to try to stem the flow of arms to Hamas, but because of the worsening +humanitarian situation there, it was losing the battle for international legitimacy. +Narratives, as self-justifications, do little to explain the complexities, ironies and +paradoxes of the Arab-Israeli conflict. In the early 1980s, while I was assigned to the +American Embassy in Tel Aviv, I met a Palestinian nationalist figure in Gaza who was +unrelentingly opposed to the Israeli occupation. He shocked me one day when he said +he also admired Israel. After a near-fatal car accident in Gaza, his son had been +evacuated to one of Israel's leading hospitals, where doctors saved his life. My +Palestinian contact hated the Israel of the occupation, but he admired the Israel that was +blind to the nationality of a boy in need of care. +When an Israeli military plan goes awry and civilians are killed -- as happened last week +off the shores of Gaza -- should Israel's narrative take in the human dimension? Should +it express empathy for those affected by the conflict and by Israeli military actions? +Marla Braverman, an editor of Azure, an Israeli neoconservative journal, thinks not. In +the current issue, she writes that despite a longtime tendency toward self-effacement, +""Israel must learn to adopt a clear, unapologetic stance befitting a sovereign state."" +The fact is, however, that sovereign states make mistakes, and they apologize. Sovereign +states rely not only on military might and insistent rhetoric to defend their people, but +also on diplomacy and values of empathy and understanding. Sovereign states can be +strong while fostering a narrative of caring about the consequences of their policies. +In the aftermath of the flotilla fiasco, it is not just Israel's military tactics and its +blockade of Gaza that need a thorough reexamination. Its narrative does, too. A dose of +empathy might be a place to start. Israel will not break by military force and tough +rhetoric alone the political and moral double standards by which the world judges its +actions. But it can make its case better by tempering force with diplomacy, by caring as +much about the humanitarian distress among Palestinians as it does about +humanitarian causes elsewhere in the world, and by developing a storyline infused with +the moral and ethical standards by which Israelis judge their own behavior. +Daniel Kurtzer, a former U.S. ambassador to Israel and Egypt, is a visiting professor at Princeton University's +Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769717 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5163,C05769721,OPINION ANALYSIS: WESTERN EUROPE: PUBLICS CREDIT U.S. FOR RELIEF TO HAITI,H,"McHale, Judith A",105,2010-06-06T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0082/DOC_0C05769721/C05769721.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Opinion Analysis: Western Europe: Publics Credit U.S. for Relief to Haiti,"H; Mills, Cheryl D; Sullivan, Jacob J; Reines, Philippe I; Shah, Rajiv (AID/A); Ramamurthy,","McHale, Judith A ","DiMartino, Kitty; Guimond, Gabrielle; Somerset, Ann D; Douglas, Walter T; Mellott, Joseph; Dickmeyer, James C;","Sunday, June 6, 2010 11:50 AM",F-2014-20439,C05769721,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,fyi,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769721 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE +IN FULL +From: McHale, Judith A +Sent: Sunday, June 6, 2010 11:50 AM +To: H; Mills, Cheryl D; Sullivan, Jacob J; Reines, Philippe I; Shah, Rajiv (AID/A); Ramamurthy, +Pradeep; Rhodes, Benjamin J.; McDonough, Denis R. +Subject FW: Opinion Analysis: Western Europe: Publics Credit U.S. for Relief to Haiti +Attachments: 06-04 Western Europe-Publics Credit US for Relief to Haiti.pdf +fyi +From: Selinger, Marta U +Sent: Friday, June 04, 2010 5:09 PM +To: McHale, Judith A +Cc: DiMartino, Kitty; Guimond, Gabrielle; Somerset, Ann D; Douglas, Walter T; Mellott, Joseph; Dickmeyer, James C; +Castillo, Raymond A +Subject: Opinion Analysis: Western Europe: Publics Credit U.S. for Relief to Haiti +Dear Under Secretary McHale, +Attached please find the latest Opinion Analysis on West European views of U.S. assistance to Haiti.

Congressman McGovern also strongly encouraged the Secretary to meet with representatives of those +organizations and individuals being threatened, with a particularly effort to reach out to and invite the Bishops of +Tumaco (Naritio), Barrancabermeja/Medio Magdalena (Santander), and we would now add Putumayo, since the +Colombian Catholic Church just advised us yesterday of increased death threats against religious workers there. In +addition, we recommended inviting Monserior Hector Fabio Henao, director of Pastoral Social, at the Archdiocese in +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769736 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769736 Date: 08/31/2015 +Bogota, who represents all the pastoral work of the Church throughout the country, as well as representatives from the +Mennonite and Lutheran churches, in particular. +While in Colombia, the most important thing the Secretary can do is avoid effusive praise for President Alvaro Uribe, +who leaves office in August. Inside Colombia, the visit by the Secretary is being described as focusing solely on the free +trade agreement and continuing support of the counterdrug strategy/Plan Colombia. Without changes in the human +rights situation and the culture of impunity, it is unlikely that anything the Secretary might say or do will alter the +equation on Capitol Hill regarding the trade agreement. It should be noted that the October 2008 GAO report on the +counter-drug operations in Colombia concluded that U.S. assistance was successful in increasing security in parts of the +country, but a failure in the areas of counter-narcotics (GAO-09-71) , and a subsequent April 2009 USAID evaluation on +U.S. aid for Plan Colombia for illegal crop reduction and Colombian counternarcotics policies actually contribute to +increased coca production. +The Colombian president has been a solid backer of U.S. policy and U.S. interests in the region, and has achieved some +important improvements in the country's security situation. It is important to recognize that, but to do so without +repeating the tone of Defense Secretary Gates' April visit, in which he called Uribe a ""great hero"" + and failed even to mention any concerns. +These concerns are of critical importance, and while the Secretary need not list them all, at least some deserve public +acknowledgement — some recognition that it is important to the United States that Colombia, including the current +government and its successor, show the necessary political will to deal with them: +• A sharp rise in alleged military killings of civilians. In many cases, these are so-called ""false positives"": non- +combatants murdered and later presented as members of armed groups killed in combat. These, notes + UN Special Rapporter for Extrajudicial Executions Philip Alston, +""began occurring with a disturbing frequency across Colombia from 2004."" Citing prosecutors' and NGOs' reports, Alston +indicates that Colombia's security forces may have killed 1,486 civilians during the first six years of Alvaro Uribe's +presidency. Alston notes that the Defense Ministry only began to address the situation after the media broke the story +of the false-positives and the subsequent negative publicity and horrified public outcry. +The prosecution of ""false positives"" is moving with excruciating slowness. In perhaps the most notorious case — the +murders of about twenty young men from the poor Bogota suburb of Soacha — nearly all of the accused soldiers and +officers have been released from prison , pending trial, as +deadlines for timely prosecution have run out. Since their arrest in late 2008, their case has been prolonged by +numerous delaying tactics by the defense, including attempts to have their cases tried in the military court system as +""acts of service."" Alston reports that the impunity rate on these extrajudicial murders by security forces may be as high +as 98.5 percent. +Mounting allegations that the President's intelligence service, the DAS, was put at the service + of paramilitary leaders and narcotraffickers; used to spy on and intimidate + Supreme Court justices, opposition politicians, journalists and human rights +defenders; and employed in a campaign of sabotage and smears against political +opponents. +Prosecutors are alleging that the orders to have the DAS carry out wiretaps, surveillance and ""political warfare"" came +from high up in the Colombian presidency , though the question of ""what President Uribe knew, and when he knew +it"" remains unanswered. Meanwhile efforts to reform or dissolve the DAS are stalled in Colombia's Congress. +President Uribe's political coalition has also been hit by a scandal known in Colombia as ""para-politics."" This +coalition has included dozens of political bosses from regions beyond the capital. Many are large landholders with ties to +narcotrafficking, the same local leaders who created and fostered the brutal pro-government paramilitary groups that +killed tens of thousands of non-combatants in the 1990s and early 2000s. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769736 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769736 Date: 08/31/2015 +Evidence, much of it from former paramilitary leaders, has brought about 300 criminal investigations against legislators, +governors, mayors and other local officials, nearly all of them Alvaro Uribe's political supporters, who made common +cause with the far-right warlords. To date, of the 278 congresspeople and senators elected in 2006, 68 + are under official investigation, on trial, or convicted for +paramilitary ties. Those embroiled in parapolitics include the President's cousin, Mario Uribe; the brother of his former +foreign minister; and individuals whom the President had named to be Colombia's ambassadors to Chile, the Dominican +Republic, and Canada. +The Colombian prosecutors, investigators, witnesses and non-governmental organizations trying to uncover the truth +about these abuses are working under conditions of great personal risk. They, too, are heroes and would benefit greatly +from a public expression of concern about the cases they are investigating, and a reminder that their work is legitimate +and important to U.S. interests in Colombia. +At the same time, it is important to avoid appearing to endorse any candidate in the June 20 runoff elections. Between +the first and second rounds of a country's presidential election is a politically awkward time for a high-level official visit. +Though President Uribe's former defense minister, Juan Manuel Santos, is the overwhelming favorite given his margin of +success in the May 30th first round of balloting over former Bogota mayor Antanas Mockus, it is necessary at this stage +to convey a sense of balance and a willingness to work closely with whoever wins. As a result, any kind words for one +candidate should be balanced by praise for the other. +Finally, it would be helpful to remind the Colombian people that the United States supports a peaceful resolution of +Bogota's worsening differences with Venezuela. While President Chavez's behavior is a significant concern, it would be +most unhelpful to be perceived on this trip as fanning the flames of conflict with Colombia — or playing into the Chavez +rhetoric that the U.S. and Colombia have military aspirations in the region. +Hope this memo, along with last week's copy of the TLHRC letter to Assistant Secretary Posner, are helpful and useful +materials for the Secretary as she plans her trip. +Very best wishes — +On behalf of Cong.

They have +discounted their original date (March 22-23) because there is an IDB meeting in Mexico City on those same dates. There +is a technical donors' meetings in Santo Domingo on April 14, and the GOH would like the pledging session to come after +it. Bellerive said the GOH would also be open to doing the pledging session on March 31, though they prefer April 15. +Status of Forces Agreement: Bellerive asked me if we could propose to the GOH a SOFA covering US troops in Haiti. 1.4(D) +B1 +I told him we would consult and get back to him ASAP. +Adoptions: Bellerive signed the two lists of humanitarian parole letters I brought him, 1.4(B) +asking if we are close to finishing all the kids in the pipeline. In a later meeting with multiple donors Bellerive 1.4(D) +talked about the case of the ten Amcits being held for allegedly trying to take Haitian children out of the country without B1 +authorization. He said that this case is in the hands of the courts and that the Executive has no influence over the +outcome, but said it is an example of the GOH's need to control the problem of child trafficking which he said has +increased exponentially since the earthquake. He said the judge has three months to decide the case. He has already +dropped the most serious charge of kidnapping, and now the charges ""only carry a maximum of 15 years in prison."" He +said that the judge might determine that there isn't enough evidence in the case to try the Amcits. He said that the only +power the Executive has in the case would be a presidential pardon in the event they are found guilty. He would not +speculate on whether Preval would consider a pardon if the Amcits are found guilty. +Migrants: He approved the return to Haiti of 62 Haitian migrants detained on Great Exuma and said repatriations +should continue as pre-earthquake normal. +Relations with Dominican Republic: On instructions, I asked Bellerive in private what the GOH believed would be the +appropriate role of the Dominican Republic in donor coordination mechanisms. 1.4(B) +1.4(D) +B1 +Political dilemma: The executive decree establishing a state of urgency expires on February 15 and can only be +extended by Parliament. Parliament has been fiercely critical of the Preval/Bellerive government since the disaster, and +This leaves the +government with the dilemma of how to handle extraordinary disaster needs (such as declaring land of public utility) +after February 15. UN SRSG Mullet encouraged Bellerive to seek a ""full consensus"" with the opposition as ""nothing +short of unanimity"" would be required to address the enormous challenges Haiti is facing. +Bellerive told the donor community that the GOH may soon have to choose between +becoming totally ineffective (which he said they will not do) or taking actions that exceed the authority given to the +Executive by the law (which he implied they are prepared to do). The government is meeting with the private sector to +get their approval of their reconstruction strategy, recognizing that they will have great difficulty getting a consensus +with the political parties. Bellerive said that the GOH is also evaluating what to do about upcoming elections and +constitutional reform, but implied that they have more time to reach a decision on these matters. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769737 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769737 Date: 08/31/2015 +1.4(B) +1.4(D) +B1 +Preval to address the nation: The government is going to designate February 12 (the month anniversary of the quake) +as a day of national mourning and President Preval will make his first formal address to the nation since the +disaster. They are drafting his speech to be part mourning and part the vision of the future. Preval wants to announce +that all the ministries are up and running as usual. +Ministries: The PM said that the Primature and the Ministry of Planning will be moving into the old US Embassy +building. The courts will move into the old USAID building. The plan to move a number of the ministries out to Croix des +Bouquets has met with very little enthusiasm from the main line ministries.

There +is a technical donors' meetings in Santo Domingo on April 14, and the GOH would like the pledging session to come after +it. Bellerive said the GOH would also be open to doing the pledging session on March 31, though they prefer April 15. +Status of Forces Agreement: Bellerive asked me if we could propose to the GOH a SOFA covering US troops in Haiti. +I told him we would consult and get back to him ASAP.

In a later meeting with multiple donors Bellerive 1.4(D) +talked about the case of the ten Amcits being held for allegedly trying to take Haitian children out of the country withouB1 +authorization. He said that this case is in the hands of the courts and that the Executive has no influence over the +outcome, but said it is an example of the GOH's need to control the problem of child trafficking which he said has +increased exponentially since the earthquake. He said the judge has three months to decide the case. He has already +dropped the most serious charge of kidnapping, and now the charges ""only carry a maximum of 15 years in prison."" He +said that the judge might determine that there isn't enough evidence in the case to try the Amcits. He said that the only +power the Executive has in the case would be a presidential pardon in the event they are found guilty. He would not +speculate on whether Preval would consider a pardon if the Amcits are found guilty. +Migrants: He approved the return to Haiti of 62 Haitian migrants detained on Great Exuma and said repatriations should +continue as pre-earthquake normal. +Relations with Dominican Republic: On instructions, I asked Bellerive in private what the GOH believed would be the +appropriate role of the Dominican Republic in donor coordination mechanisms. 1.4(B) +1.4(D) +B1 +Political dilemma: The executive decree establishing a state of urgency expires on February 15 and can only be +extended by Parliament. Parliament has been fiercely critical of the Preval/Bellerive government since the disaster, and +This leaves the 1.4(B) +government with the dilemma of how to handle extraordinary disaster needs (such as declaring land of public utility) 1.4(D) +after February 15. UN SRSG Mullet encouraged Bellerive to seek a ""full consensus"" with the opposition as ""nothing B1 +short of unanimity"" would be required to address the enormous challenges Haiti is facing. +Bellerive told the donor community that the GOH may soon have to choose between +becoming totally ineffective (which he said they will not do) or taking actions that exceed the authority given to the +Executive by the law (which he implied they are prepared to do). The government is meeting with the private sector to +get their approval of their reconstruction strategy, recognizing that they will have great difficulty getting a consensus +with the political parties. Bellerive said that the GOH is also evaluating what to do about upcoming elections and +constitutional reform, but implied that they have more time to reach a decision on these matters. +Preval to address the nation: The government is going to designate February 12 (the month anniversary of the quake) as +a day of national mourning and President Preval will make his first formal address to the nation since the disaster. They +are drafting his speech to be part mourning and part the vision of the future. Preval wants to announce that all the +ministries are up and running as usual. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769745 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769745 Date: 08/31/2015 +Ministries: The PM said that the Primature and the Ministry of Planning will be moving into the old US Embassy building. +The courts will move into the old USAID building.

Efforts of the +countries engaged in the region, aimed at the improvement of bilateral relations, are indispensable. I am confident that it +wouldn't be possible to move forward without their support. At the same time, I believe no matter how interested friendly +states might be in a positive resolution of the impasse, there are certain things that can be done only by our two nations. +Mr. President, +I hope you will agree that the Armenian and Turkish peoples assign the main task of getting rid of the stereotypes +regarding each other and establishment of the atmosphere of mutual trust to their respective govemments. We can +achieve results only if there are trust, resolve, and unfaltering stance. A situation when words are not supported by deeds +gives rise to mistrust and skepticism, providing ample opportunities to counteract for those, who oppose the process. We +should be mindful of the fact that in this particular case, the time is working not for but against the process. +If until now we have been able to bring our bilateral relations up to a level which made the prospects of building normal +relations between our two countries more tangible and discernible, now the time has come to manifest determination to +make next major step and leave to the coming generations a stable and secure region. +Please accept, Excellency, the assurances of my highest esteem."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769758 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5178,C05769760,"(REUTERS) SRI LANKA PRESIDENT DISSOLVES PARLIAMENT, CALL POLL",H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-02-09T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0064/DOC_0C05769760/C05769760.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,"(Reuters) Sri Lanka president dissolves parliament, calls poll",H,"Abedin, Huma ","Banks, Dana","Tuesday, February 9, 2010 10:53 AM",F-2014-20439,C05769760,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769760 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Tuesday, February 9, 2010 10:53 AM +To: H +Subject Fw: (Reuters) Sri Lanka president dissolves parliament, calls poll +From: Shelstad, Jeffrey +To: NEWS-Mahogany; NEWS-SCA +Cc: Banks, Dana +Sent: Tue Feb 09 10:31:06 2010 +Subject: (Reuters) Sri Lanka president dissolves parliament, calls poll +COLOMBO (Reuters) - Sri Lanka's newly re-elected President Mahinda Rajapaksa dissolved parliament with effect from +February 10 and called legislative elections, a senior government official said.

Deuel has lived in Arlington Heights, but her heart has resided in Jamal Place, a three-story +graystone at 1335 S. California Ave. in the North Lawndale neighborhood of Chicago. As a founder and executive director +of Jamal Place, Deuel can tell countless stories about the boys, ages 11 to 17, who have spent time in the group home +and about the army of suburbanites from St. Charles, Naperville, Lake Zurich and Lisle who have volunteered, donated +and served on the board to help those kids. Lots of people in that field have good things to say about Deuel and Jamal +Place. +But when the new fiscal year begins on July 1, the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services will not renew its +contract with Jamal Place, forcing those kids to go to other facilities. +""To shut us down and deny kids this opportunity is unconscionable,"" says Deuel, as she takes a deep breath and dabs at +her eyes in an attempt to keep her emotions in check. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769761 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769761 Date: 08/31/2015 +She and her staff operated last year through a $1,041,000 contract with DCFS to provide a group home for 10 wards of +the state. They've carved out a wonderful reputation in 15 years, so what happened? +The easy answer is that DCFS put the group home under a new performance-based contracting system that determined +Jamal Place fell short of benchmarks for keeping kids from running away, requiring hospitalization or ending up in +juvenile detention. +""Taxpayers expect and deserve positive results in the children we serve,"" says DCFS spokesman Kendall Marlowe. Jamal +Place simply didn't measure up in the areas the state measures. +Because Illinois has trimmed the number of wards of the state from a high of 52,000 in 1997 to only 15,500, a much +higher percentage of those kids have mental illnesses, substance abuse or other problems. Since the state measures an +agency's performance by days that the kids are physically present in the home, Jamal Place, with its small population, +got bad marks when a child was hospitalized for a mental-health issue or detained by a judge. +""We did what was clinically advisable for these children and we got dinged for it,"" says Brian Barclay, assistant executive +director of Jamal Place. ""We did what was in kids' best interest."" +There is no consideration given for ""incremental improvements in youth behavior, which occur as trusting relationships +develop,"" Deuel notes. ""I wish they could find a way to measure the individual aspects."" +When compared with similar facilities, Jamal Place graded lower, Marlowe says, adding that it ""isn't a happy day"" when +the state ends an agreement with a facility that has ""good people"" and has done ""good work"" in the past. He says DCFS +did renew a contract with Deuel for a different transitional living facility that serves an older population. +One of Jamal Place's ""unfavorable"" outcomes involves a kid who already had a criminal record when he came to the +group home at age 14. Now 17, he says he ended up in juvenile court after he made a mistake by hanging with the +wrong people on the day when he stole a woman's purse. +""I've got a good relationship with the staff and residents. We did things as a family,"" says the teen, who now is living +with a grandmother. ""I love my grandmother, but I'd rather be at Jamal Place. I'm trying to do everything in my power to +get back to Jamal Place."" +Intangibles aren't part of the bureaucratic process. There isn't a place on an evaluation form to give credit to Deuel and +her staff for leading the effort that closed a local ""crack house."" There's no way to measure the improvements in a +former resident that led him for the first time to sign ""love"" before his name on the Mother's Day card he sent Deuel this +year. There's no scoresheet for the local gang leader who stopped preying on Jamal kids when he was confronted by +Deuel and recognized her as the woman who gave him a Christmas present a few years earlier. The interview for this +story is interrupted when that man calls Deuel, who is helping him find a legitimate job. +""It is enormously frustrating to me that the attachment the boys develop with our staff members is not a 'measurable' +outcome,"" Deuel says. ""These are our children. Long after DCFS is done with these kids, our door is still open."" +Last weekend, many former residents came back to explain how Jamal Place helped them. On June 26, Jamal Place will +celebrate its 15th anniversary with a picnic and walkathon in Douglas Park, across the street from the home. Deuel and +her staff are hoping DCFS finds a way to give them more time, another year to continue its mission. +""I've always maintained that God won't let us fail,"" says Deuel. ""For 15 years, that's been the case, and now we've got +this challenge."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769761 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5180,C05769762,DAVID BROOKS,preines,"Sullivan, Jake",87,2010-02-09T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0064/DOC_0C05769762/C05769762.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05769762,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Jake Sullivan < +Tuesday, February 9, 2010 9:57 AM +preines( +H; CDM; Huma Abedin +Re: David Brooks +Philippe and I had an offline conversation about this and I agree entirely.

Ali Jarekji / Reuters +RIYADH // Saudi Arabia is planning to introduce regulations, including a licensing requirement, for its +indigenous internet news sites, which have become a key fixture in the kingdom's active online community. +The draft regulations, still under study, would require internet-based news sites to request a government licence +and to respond to complaints about their content that are received by the ministry of culture and information. +""We want them to feel that they are under our umbrella,"" Abdul Rahman al Hazza, spokesman for the ministry, +said in a phone interview yesterday. +Mr al Hazza referred to the new rules as ""guidelines for the e-press"", and said the idea is to help the electronic +media with staffing and financing and give them ""somebody to talk to"" if they have problems. ""It's going to be +simple and easy."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769770 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769770 Date: 08/31/2015 +Asked if the new rules would involve censorship, Mr al Hazza replied: ""Not that much."" Mainly, he added, if +there are complaints about something written at an online news site, ""we just look at it"". +A report last year in the Saudi Gazette said the draft regulations also cover ""appointment conditions for editors- +in-chief, granting permits to journalists, and invitations to cover news events"". +A 2007 law already subjects online writers to criminal penalties for such things as defamation. +The planned regulations, which Mr al Hazza said are still two to three months away from being finalised by the +ministry, are an effort to bring online news sites such as Sabq, Alweeam and A'ajel under government control +in much the same way that the country's traditional daily newspapers are regulated. +It is not clear if news sites like Elaph.com, which is London-based but has a Riyadh office, would also have to +get a licence. +Saudi newspapers are licensed by the government and can be temporarily stopped from publishing if they print +something upsetting to a government official. But this has been rare in recent years, during which the Saudi +print media has been encouraged to report more critically on social and economic problems. There is +considerable self-censorship, however, as the media stay away from sensitive issues. +Although the draft regulations under consideration do not apply to bloggers, there are concerns that the +government eventually will try to regulate them as well. +""They are not talking about blogs"" right now, observed one veteran Saudi blogger, Ahmed Ba-Aboud. ""But +eventually they will get to us. It is a concern."" +Mr Ba-Aboud, 38, a management consultant in the kingdom's Eastern Province city of Dhahran, said the +government does not understand that online media are attracting readers because they are not controlled like +traditional newspapers. ""There's no way I'd send anything I write to the government to censor it,"" he said. +""That's not how the internet works."" +Ahmed al Omran, who blogs at www.saudijeans.org, was caustic about what he called the ministry's ""dumb +idea to regulate so-called electronic media"". +""Ironically, some owners of news websites are actually pushing for this law,"" Mr Omran lamented in a posting +last month. +""They argue that it would make it easier for them to get funding and make money from advertising. What about +their independence and freedom that could be threatened by the new law? Well, apparently these things are not +high on their agenda."" +Saudi Arabia's sprightly blogging community includes both Saudis and foreigners writing in both Arabic and +English. It also boasts one of the region's highest proportion of female bloggers — about 46 per cent, according +to a 2009 study by Harvard University's Berkman Center for Internet and Society. About one-third of the +kingdom's population regularly goes online. +The community's latest arrival showed up February 2, when Mr Ba-Aboud launched a new English-language +blog so that outsiders can learn more about ""regular people like myself'. +Most foreigners know certain kinds of Saudis, Mr Ba-Aboud said in an interview, including ""extremists like +Osama bin Laden"", ""rich people"" and ""people related to the government"". +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769770 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769770 Date: 08/31/2015 +But the voice of ordinary Saudis ""does not reach around the globe in a similar magnitude"", he wrote at the new +site, http://alternativesaudivoices.wordpress.com. +It will be a sort of communal blog in that Mr Ba-Aboud has invited anyone to contribute a posting, and as co- +ordinator, he will post them on the site. Only those that ""call for hate or violence"" will be rejected, he added. +In an interview last November, Mr al Hazza, the ministry spokesman, said the new regulations arose partly +because ordinary citizens ""don't know where to go"" to complain about something written at an online news site. +""The problem we have is that there is no government department to refer to ... Nobody to evaluate their job to +see if they are doing wrong or right."" +Censorship ""is not the idea"" behind the new rules, he said. ""The idea is to regulate."" +Mr al Ha7za said a decision will probably be made in the next couple of weeks about whether the new +regulations shall be issued by the minister of culture and information, Abdel Aziz al Khoja, or be sent to the +Shoura Council for action. +Meanwhile, anyone wanting to send Mr al Khoja a comment on the new rules can reach him at his personal +page at Facebook +Helmi Noman +Program Specialist +Middle East Partnership Initiative (MEPI) +Regional Office, Abu Dhabi +Tel. +971-2-414-2541 +Fax. +971-2-414-2576 +abudhabi.mepi.state.gov +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769770 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5184,C05769771,BELARUS,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-02-09T05:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0064/DOC_0C05769771/C05769771.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,• H,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Tuesday, February 9, 2010 4:22 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769771,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Phil believes he has nailed down where things are on Belarus.

The money would be +channeled to programs benefiting Haiti's reconstruction in areas such as agriculture, electricity infrastructure, health +and education. +""Latin America has stood up,"" Ecuadorean President Rafael Correa said, addressing the summit at his presidential palace. +""The time has come to create a new kind of south-south aid."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769799 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769799 Date: 08/31/2015 +The meeting marks Colombian President Alvaro Uribe's first visit to Ecuador since his armed forces staged a cross-border +raid on a guerrilla camp there almost two years ago. The attack killed rebel leader Raul Reyes, prompted Correa to break +off ties with his northern neighbor and led Venezuela's Hugo Chavez to order tanks to his country's border with +Colombia. +Leaders including Organization of American States Secretary General Jose Miguel Insulza said today aid efforts should +follow instructions from the government of Haitian President Rene Preval, who attended the meeting. Correa said +member nations should scrap tariffs on Haitian imports and consider subsidizing natural gas exports to the Caribbean +nation. +IDB Support +Carlos Melo, the IDB's representative in Ecuador, said he spoke to bank chief Luis Alberto Moreno, who supported a 15- +to 20-year $200 million credit to be taken on by Unasur. Correa said member countries should consider contributing 25 +cents per inhabitant to the $100 million fund. +Chavez canceled his attendance because of an electricity crisis he's facing at home, Ecuadorean Foreign Minister Ricardo +Patino told reporters today. At a gathering in Argentina last August, Chavez assailed a deal allowing the U.S. access to +seven Colombian military bases, saying it was part of a strategy to dominate the region. +About 100 protesters gathered today outside the presidential palace, carrying signs reading ""Uribe equals the threat of +war"" and chanting criticisms of Correa for receiving his Colombian counterpart. +Regional Integration +Unasur was formed two years ago in a bid to promote regional integration. In 2008, at a summit in Santiago, the group +provided political backing to Bolivian President Evo Morales after clashes between his supporters and government +opponents over a new constitution left 30 people dead. +The leaders of the continent's two biggest economies skipped today's talks. Argentine President Cristina Fernandez de +Kirchner has canceled foreign travel amid a political dispute over control of the central bank's reserves. +Brazilian President Luiz lnacio Lula da Silva isn't attending because of conflicts in his agenda, according to his press +office. He sent his top foreign policy adviser, Marco Aurelio Garcia, to represent him. +No bilateral meeting is planned between Correa and Uribe, Ecuador's state news agency cited Patino as saying Feb. 4. +Unasur countries rushed doctors, food and emergency supplies to Haiti, the hemisphere's poorest country, in the +aftermath of the Jan. 12 earthquake. At least 200,000 people died in the quake, Haiti's government said Feb. 6. +Brazil Aid +Lula signed a, decree Jan. 26 providing 375 million reais ($200 million) in aid to Haiti. Brazil, which leads a United Nations +peacekeeping contingent in Haiti, had already pledged about $17 million to the country, the most among Latin American +nations, according to UN data. +Venezuela forgave Haiti's oil-related debt and donated 225,000 barrels of fuel, while Colombia sent more than 200 +search-and-rescue personnel and committed hundreds of tons of humanitarian supplies. Ecuador has sent rescue teams +and donated several tons of food, UN data show.

These visits culminated last month in a +highly successful address by VP Biden to a Plenary Session of the EP. I hope that you will also address +a Plenary Session of the EP in the near term. (Your town hall meeting at the EP with young leaders last +year was well-received here.) +(2) Increased the flow and quality of EP interactions in Washington. We have facilitated a dramatic +increase in the number of EP delegations visiting Washington and a significant improvement in the level +of their access to high-level USG officials. +(3) Increased USEU outreach to the EP at every level. At the Mission, we are restructuring the way in +which we interact with EP leaders by institutionalizing responsibility for key relationships and +enhancing accountability. In the coming months, we expect to receive two additional FTEs at the +Mission to improve our ability to cover the EP. We have also encouraged our Embassies in member +State capitals to meet with European Parliament members. +Again, thank you for your interest and support for our efforts. +Bill Kennard +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769863 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769863 Date: 08/31/2015 +SBU +This email is UNCLASSIFIED. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769863 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5232,C05769865,,H,"Verma, Richard R",180,2010-06-10T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0083/DOC_0C05769865/C05769865.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Verma, Richard R ",,"Thursday, June 10, 2010 10:13 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769865,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Welcome back.

The motorcade, twisting and skidding through rain-splashed +streets for more than an hour; the public meetings and camera lights at journey's end; the spotlight that +has not let up for two decades. It is almost as if the 2008 US presidential election - hailed as the most +exciting for a generation - had never ended. +But this is a campaign without a vote. Today, Clinton's convoy is snaking through Sao Paulo, Brazil, not +South Hampton, New Hampshire. She herself is no longer an aspirant for the White House, despite what +the overnight flights, town hall meetings and strategy sessions that make up her gruelling schedule might +suggest. Instead, she is in Latin America to shore up relations with the region and promote a new idea of +US leadership, one very much built around herself. +She's had bigger and more ecstatic audiences than the 700-odd students and staff crammed into the hall +tonight at Zumbi dos Pradares, an Afro-Brazilian university, but she's still greeted by a wave of raised +arms as the audience snaps away at her with their mobile phones. +In the convoy moments before, she was wrapped in a shawl, suffering from a cold and angry at the delays +that pushed us into the side streets speckled with box-like bars, warehouses and love hotels while +Brazilian motorists sought to cut into our path. There is no sign of that now. With the metabolism of a +born politician, she feeds off the energy of her audience and takes questions from students, teachers and +local celebrities for an hour. Hillary Clinton never looks happier than when she is centre stage. +Most US secretaries of state wouldn't bother with this sort of event, much less initiate it and arrange for it +to be screened on the biggest local channel. Yet this is what Clinton does on almost every foreign trip - +and she seems to spend half her life on her official 727, crammed with long-time aides and armed +bodyguards. The schedule is backbreaking and constantly shifting. She has notched up more than a +quarter of a million miles since taking office. +On this Latin America trip, thrown into confusion by an earthquake in Chile, we have already visited four +countries in 24 hours. We go to tiny Uruguay, where our stay is so brief we check into a hotel just for a +shower; Argentina, where we spend almost all our time at the presidential palace; Chile itself, where we +don't leave the airport; and Brazil, where we spend almost a full day. +So what exactly is Clinton trying to do on this never-ending world tour? Travelling with her for a week, +talking to people inside and outside the administration, I tried to find out. +""We now have a case to make and it is not just a case that is made to the president or the prime minister +or the foreign minister or an ambassador,"" she tells me a few weeks later, as she perches on a sofa in her +expansive office, with its view of the Lincoln Memorial. ""People now have a voice and an opinion and a +vote in many instances on the direction that their own societies take ... I want to model a different kind of +leadership that is open and willing to listen but [also] to stand our ground if necessary."" +She argues that these trips of hers help to restore the US's image in the wake of the Bush administration +- by making contact with public opinion abroad, and so boosting American power. Her aides say that, as a +battle-hardened politician who also happens to be one of the most famous women in the world, she is +ideally placed to carry out the task. But the deeper question is whether she is merely implementing the +foreign policy crafted by Barack Obama, her boss and former rival, or whether her role - and ambitions - +go beyond that. +Is she a kind of saleswoman-in-chief for the US, I ask? ""Well, I think that is part of the job,"" she replies, +toying with the napkin underneath her glass of water. ""If you are making a case for American values and +for American leadership, you have to make it where people now get information ... Given the bridges we +had to build and some of the repair work we had to do, we had to travel."" +As in S'ao Paulo, her system is under strain - ""I've been fighting this all day,"" she says as she masks a +cough set off by her allergies (Washington's cherry blossom trees are shedding their flowers). Life is still +hectic - the volcanic ash cloud has just all but paralysed Europe and televisions throughout the State +Department are showing the first British election debate. But Clinton remains enthusiastic, affable and +unhurried, her speech peppered with exclamations such as ""oh my gosh"", even as she discusses issues of +state. She politely asks if I have any updates for her about Europe's airspace shutdown and tells me she's +been talking to Norway's foreign minister about it. +""He said that this dust gets into engines of any size, even Air Force One - it's chunky! I don't know how +else to describe it,"" she says, an odd note of hilarity entering her voice as she pronounces the word +""chunky"". +Clinton often speaks in this eager, unvarnished way - a world away from the clipped, on-message manner +of her immediate predecessor in the post, Condoleezza Rice. If anything, she is an undiplomat - known +less for calibrated circumlocutions than for her plain speaking and sometimes her gaffes, a woman who +retains both a formidable political constituency and a laugh she once admitted can send cats scurrying +from a room. +Her staff point out she is only the third elected politician in 60 years to have served as secretary of state, +and the first to come from outside the foreign policy establishment since James Baker, George H.W. +Bush's right-hand man and perhaps her most illustrious recent predecessor. She may be the most +substantive politician in the office since William Jennings Bryan, the three-time presidential candidate who +served as secretary almost a century ago. ""Her stature on the world stage, her almost presidential +stature, has set her apart,"" Bill Burns, the top career diplomat at the State Department, tells me. ""Leaders +want to meet her. And the town hall meetings do make a difference with public opinion."" +State visitor Hillary Clinton is greeted by Air Force Base Commander Colonel Celso de Araujo at S'ao Paulo +airport in March +Back in Sao Paulo, the meeting at the university ranges far from the confines and dramatis personae of +traditional diplomacy. Annie, a young woman with red and blue dreadlocked hair, tells Clinton about her +dance and percussion classes and asks how to study in the US without paying college fees. A nervous +young man confesses himself lost halfway through an abstruse question about tariff policy; Clinton, +smiling and nodding in that vaguely automatic way of hers, bears with him all the same. Another female +student asks for an autograph. When answering, Clinton sometimes opens her eyes wide as she +emphasises a phrase; at other moments, seemingly at random, she pulls her hands apart as if +demonstrating the size of a fish. +Then a law student called Marina asks about abortion - which is illegal in Brazil - and Clinton moves into +treacherous terrain. She speaks of the Brazilian hospital she visited in the 1990s that treated not just +expectant mothers but women suffering from the consequences of backstreet abortions. ""Wealthy women +have rights in every country,"" she says. ""And poor women don't."" Her strength of feeling can't be hidden +as she denounces ""the great toll that illegal abortions take and the denial of women being able to exercise +such a fundamental personal right"". +Tom Shannon, the US ambassador to Brazil, tells me later: ""I understand the possible concern that we +might have come close to domestic issues. But she wasn't laying out a prescription for Brazil. She was +sharing her experience as a woman in American politics and as secretary of state."" It's true: Clinton +doesn't quite cross the line. Onstage, she is controlled without seeming artificial, convivial without +appearing over-effusive, what a previous age would call a real trouper. At the podium she looks straight +ahead, her lips carefully expressionless. Still, the old competitive instincts haven't left her. Perhaps it is +the lecterns at press conferences, reminiscent of the Democratic presidential debates, but on exiting the +podium at a joint appearance with Argentina's president Cristina Fernandez, Clinton makes clear her +satisfaction at having had the last word. The expert debater who usually bested Obama has not left the +stage. +Yet that competitive urge coexists with what one insider describes as her ""almost inhuman loyalty"" +towards Obama. Her mastery of the facts - an ""information carnivore"" one of her officials calls her - +comes despite the consensus in much of Washington that her role consists largely of implementing the +foreign policy Obama and his inner circle have framed, rather than helping frame it herself. +In Sao Paulo, she shows her loyalty in striking fashion when she is asked repeatedly about positive +discrimination - another sensitive topic in Brazil - not least because, Clinton herself observes, Afro- +Brazilians account for more than half the country's population but only 2 per cent of university students. +""That suggests to me that some special steps need to be taken [in] recruiting and admitting students so +that they can have a chance to succeed,"" she tells the hall, again inching towards domestic politics, before +speaking of her pride in the progress the US civil rights movement has made in the past half-century. She +says: ""The election of Barack Obama, many believe, was the greatest accomplishment of all because it +demonstrated that an African-American could be elected president of the United States."" +Among the crowd, I catch my breath and scribble down her words. It's hard to think of a more fulsome +statement from the woman who fought so hard against Obama - and who squandered a huge poll lead +and millions of dollars in the struggle against him. +The great collaborator Clinton has established strong working relationships within the Obama +administration +When I ask Clinton later about how she managed to move from the antagonism of the primary race to the +obedience of office, she dismisses my question with an anodyne ""that's politics"". She adds: ""We're +working really hard and well together ... It just never comes up any more, it seems like ancient history to +me."" Not so ancient, I think, that she is willing to admit the failings of her campaign. ""I always run +inclusive and successful organisations,"" she retorts when I ask her whether she'd applied any lessons from +that searing experience to her new post. +She admits she didn't want the job at State - she says she was exhausted by the election and missed the +Senate -. ""but at the end of the day, I'm pretty old-fashioned and if the president asks you to do +something, you'd better have a really good reason why you can't."" Also, she adds: ""Suppose I had won +and I were asking him to be in my cabinet ... I would have wanted him to say yes."" +Others say the relationship is more complex, that by dint of her loyalty and unflagging hard work, Clinton +has moved closer to the charmed circle and made herself an even more formidable political force than +before. ""Quite simply, she gives good advice and the president over a year and a half has recognised +that,"" says Anne-Marie Slaughter, head of the State Department policy planning unit. ""The relationship is +based on her performance in the job."" +By all accounts, it's a collaborative partnership, though not perhaps a warm one. Clinton boasts a good +working relationship with the main players of the administration - and has formed something of an +alliance with defence secretary Robert Gates, although on life-and-death issues such as Afghanistan, it is +Gates, not her, who has taken the lead. As one official told me, secretaries of state have often either been +popular with their own department - Colin Powell comes to mind - or with the rest of the administration - +as was Condoleezza Rice - but Clinton has managed to be both. +In truth, Clinton's language remains harder-edged than Obama's - she recently claimed that Iran's +Revolutionary Guard had staged a slow-motion coup - and she has sometimes been more willing than he +is to hint at using the military. ""She seems to step up with a bit of spine just at the right time,"" says Kurt +Volker, a US ambassador to Nato under George W. Bush. +She has also assumed an ever more prominent role in talking to leaders such as Benjamin Netanyahu of +Israel and Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan - apparently because she is trusted both by them and Obama. +Meanwhile, she has been careful to keep her husband, the former US president, in the background. Aides +say they have barely seen him in the building - though Clinton herself says that behind the scenes Bill +Clinton gives her strategic advice. ""One of his favourite sayings, that I remind myself of all the time, is a +kind of baseball saying,"" she says: ""Don't major in the minors; keep your eye on not just the headlines +but the trend lines."" +It is her co-operative stance rather than any notable effort to set out a grand vision of her own that is the +chief theme of her time so far at State. When I ask Clinton to name her proudest achievement in office, +she replies ""the effective and collaborative approach that this administration has taken towards identifying +and solving problems."" A more process-oriented, less provocative answer would be hard to imagine. +But maybe, I think, the US has less scope for grand strategy than it did in the past couple of decades, +when the country seemed to bestride the world colossus-style. Clinton herself suggests that so formidable +are the tasks confronting the US that the administration has little scope to enter into internecine fights but +needs instead to focus on the challenges to hand. Whatever the reason for her stance, it seems to be a +smart decision - by all accounts she's overcome many of the suspicions the White House retinue had +towards her. +""It's fair to say that she was not born into the administration's inner circle but slowly but surely, for the +most consequential decisions, she now has a prime seat at the table,"" says one official. Praising what he +calls her ""Terminator-quality durability and determination,"" he adds: ""She's done an amazing amount of +work, judging that the way to build a strategic vision is bottom up, by mastering the details."" +Indeed, Clinton's ability to master the most arcane foreign policy briefs is the marvel of her building. She +has dropped into obscure working groups and shown an unnerving knowledge of their details. At her +confirmation hearings last year she exchanged facts about the arctic with an Alaskan senator; at the +meeting in So Paulo she becomes enthused about freight transport policy both in Brazil and the US. She +herself acknowledges that finding her feet on foreign policy was something of a struggle, despite her +campaign claims of expertise in the field. ""It was so intellectually challenging, just to get our arms around +all of these issues,"" she says. During her first year, she was criticised for apparent gaffes - including the +way she called for Israel to halt all building of settlements on occupied territory only to hail a partial freeze +a few months later as unprecedented. On an election campaign, she says, ""you may be in a different city +four times a day but you have a message you're trying to deliver that is repetitive and aimed at your +audience. But here you might deal with 10 different countries' problems, six different regional or global +challenges in the course of a day."" +As the Latin America tour shows, she is now trying to do both - travel incessantly and solve an array of +international issues. She is at the forefront of the US's efforts to consolidate relations with a number of +important countries - predominantly Russia and China, but also rising powers such as Brazil, Turkey, +Indonesia and South Africa - and to cool down anti-American feeling in hotspots, notably Pakistan. She +says the push is working, hailing a ""change in public opinion in places that were pretty negative about the +US"" - a reference to Russia and Pakistan. But it is far from smooth sailing. Differences about Iran and +over Israel's raid on aid-bearing ships off Gaza have stoked tensions with Turkey and Brazil recently, amid +questioning of the effectiveness of the Obama administration's policies. +During my time with her on the road, the stop in Brazil is the focal point - not surprising given the +country's increased profile as Latin America leader. Clinton is now heading the administration's push to +secure sanctions on Iran, and in Brasilia she tries and fails to win President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva to her +cause. She employs an almost combative tone at a press conference with Celso Amorim, Brazil's foreign +minister. At moments she appears to barely contain her irritation, as she denounces ""an Iran that runs to +Brazil"" as well as other countries such as Turkey and China ""telling different things to different people to +avoid international sanctions"". Amorim is spiky in his own way - drawing parallels to the 1990s sanctions +on Iraq and the claims about weapons of mass destruction before the 2003 war. ""Of course, I don't agree +with everything the Secretary said,"" he says. +It is not a happy experience - indeed this past week both Brazil and Turkey voted against sanctions at the +United Nations - yet Hillary Clinton is nowhere near giving up. Years ago, one of Bill Clinton's biographers +described his approach to government as a ""permanent campaign"", and it appears to be his wife's +preferred form of existence as well. If there is one constant in Clinton's life, it is that she never throws in +her cards, whether what motivates her is power or public service. +""Never, never!"" she exclaims, when I ask whether she ever thought of walking off into the wings after the +frustrations and indignities of her time at the White House. ""I have a very realistic sense of what high- +stakes politics requires and it took me a while to get there because it's shocking when you are in the +arena ... but once you figure it out, you can take it seriously for purposes of analysis and understanding, +but you can't take it personally."" Such treatment seems to rankle all the same. She's been listening to +coverage ahead of the British debate and is plainly irritated by the coverage of the leaders' wives. +""Whether a woman's running for office or she's supporting her husband who's running for office and she +gets criticised for wearing open-toed shoes or for the colour of her coat, there's just a lot of history that +you bear if you are a woman who puts herself out in the political arena,"" she says. +Another country Clinton boards her official 727 to fly from Sao Paulo to Costa Rica +Injustice towards women appears to be the issue that most enthuses Clinton in this job - as in her many +other incarnations in American public life, whether as First Lady or before. ""I feel passionately it is in not +just the American national security interests but the world's, that women be given the opportunities and +the tools to make the most out of their own lives,"" she says. +In the 1990s she steered clear of reading the newspapers because of the way she was treated. Today, she +says, ""I certainly don't read coverage of me, I read what else is going on that I need to know about to do +my job."" ""It's all baloney,"" says Philippe Reines, her press adviser, who set up the meeting with her and is +sitting to one side in her office. +""Yeah, yeah, right, that's what he tells me,"" Clinton responds. +I wonder. She may not read the stories about her, but she has boosted her domestic profile still further by +talking to American magazines such as Esquire, Vogue and Parade. To what end? Clinton has said she will +only serve one four-year term as secretary of state - understandable, given the grind of the job. When I +ask whether she expects a woman president in the next decade or so, she responds: ""I'd love that, +obviously I would love that. I want to be front and centre when it happens."" +""Any chance it would be you?"" I ask. +""No, no, I don't think that's in the cards,"" Clinton says. She's given more categoric denials in the past. ""I +think that there's a whole generation of young women and not so young, but mature, seasoned women +who are earning their stripes and recognising how tough it is out there. It is not for the faint of heart to +run for president, and I believe it is harder for women, it just is, and that's just a fact."" But, says one US +official, ""all the profiles and all this media treatment undercut the argument that she is finished with +electoral politics. Why do all this stuff? She's already Hillary Clinton. You have to ask: 'What's the idea +behind raising her domestic profile still further?"" +Indeed she is now, by some counts, the most popular politician in America and some in Washington say +she could be a good fit for the vice-presidential slot in the 2012 elections. +Back in Sao Paulo, once the town hall meeting is over, Clinton faces a seven-hour flight to Costa Rica. The +journey goes on and on, and as saleswoman-in-chief for the US in an unruly world, she faces a long, hard +road. Today the US sometimes struggles to assert itself on the world stage. But the obstacles are rather +fewer if the product she is pitching is herself. A secretary of state like none before her, Hillary Clinton, +long one of the most formidable figures in US politics, is looking stronger than ever. +Daniel Dombey is the FT's US diplomatic correspondent +David Miliband: ""Hillary is a rock star ... she has a great sense of fun, and a great sense of humour"" +It's too early to start chalking up a scorecard because Hillary Clinton, and the Obama administration, is +laying the foundations for long-term change in America's foreign policy. The challenges are immense - +probably more difficult than the inheritance of any previous administration. But American leadership is +essential and a commitment to multilateralism - in fact multi, multilateralism using different and +overlapping forums - is real and right. +You also have to remember that Hillary is a rock star. When I arrived at the Nato Foreign Ministers +meeting in March 2009, it was a nice surprise that all the staff, never mind the press, seemed to have +turned out in droves for my arrival. Then I realised that Hillary was 10 minutes behind me. +That said, the thing that most surprised me about working with Clinton was not her intelligence or her +hard work, all of which are well known, but that behind the serious exterior is someone who has a great +sense of fun, and a great sense of humour. She has seen politics from all sides, and can laugh at herself +as well as at others. +She's a remarkably good listener, always synthesising ideas and opinions to develop her own. She thinks +strategically as well as tactically. She's also very, very unpompous. Hillary is a very political person but in +a particular way, she honours politics and public service and believes that democratic politics is not a +necessary evil, but a calling of value and vocation. She knows you win some and you lose some, but it's +essential to take part. +There's one other thing. Hillary is a people person in that she thinks deeply about the psychology of the +people she's dealing with. Their motivation, their loyalties, their culture. It's real emotional intelligence in +trying to understand why people disagree and how you can get them to agree. I think that must be why +so many other members of the administration say she is a very good colleague. +David Miliband is shadow foreign secretary +Gideon Rachman: ""Relations between the White House and the State Department are not particularly +close"" +A school teacher asked to write a report on Hillary Clinton's stint as secretary of state would have to give +her 10/10 for effort but a rather more modest mark for actual achievements - maybe a six or a seven. +Secretaries of state are generally judged on two criteria. First, how have they done in the endless +bureaucratic turf wars that characterise Washington politics? Second, how effective have they been in +promoting US foreign policy in the wider world? Success in one area usually helps in the other. Henry +Kissinger was a superb Washington infighter - and his close relationship with President Nixon made him +all the more effective overseas. Colin Powell, George W. Bush's first secretary of state, was widely +admired outside the US - but came out on the wrong side of many of the Washington battles, which +limited his ability to get things done in the wider world. +Hillary Clinton has skilfully avoided being sucked into the debilitating Washington struggles that so +damaged Powell. Despite the often poisonous rivalry between the Obama and Clinton camps during the +campaign, Clinton has a good working relationship with the president. But while relations between the +White House and the State Department are cordial, they do not seem to be particularly close. Clinton +appointed many loyalists from her own campaign to the State Department, with the result that State is +rather detached from Obama's inner circle. Obama's penchant for making high-profile speeches in foreign +capitals such as Cairo, Prague, Tokyo and Istanbul means that the president himself has done more than +anyone else to define his administration's approach to the world. +That still leaves a role for Clinton to fill in the crucial details of policy. But special representatives have +been appointed to deal with Afghanistan and the Middle East - and the Treasury is critical to China policy. +Asked about Clinton's impact as secretary of state, one senior European policymaker purses his lips and +says: ""She's done some great trips, and she's highly professional. But it's hard to see any particular area +where she has really driven policy."" +Gideon Rachman is the FT's chief foreign affairs columnist +David Rothkopf: ""When she has been asked to deliver tough messages, she has done so unflinchingly"" +Hillary Clinton has been a cautious secretary of state: she has protected the president well and pursued +his agenda without upstaging him - an early concern, given her stature. She has worked very well with +other members of the cabinet, and is reconsidering the role and structure of the State Department. +That includes a review of the role of diplomacy going forward. Clinton has not only acknowledged the rise +of new powers and a changing global power structure but has taken steps to reshape US foreign policy +structure accordingly. An important part of that has been recognising the importance of co-operating with +private and non-state actors such as NG0s, as well as dealing with non-state threats. +When the administration has called upon her to deliver tough messages, she has done so unflinchingly. +This has allowed the president to articulate a strategic vision which Clinton then goes about implementing. +Still, neither the secretary of state nor the president determines the global situation. The US may be the +most powerful country in the world but it is one among many powerful countries, and many aspects of the +situation we face today are beyond our control. The Obama administration has been dealt an extremely +difficult hand: not only Iraq and Afghanistan, but Iran and North Korea's nuclear programmes, the rise of +emerging powers and a complex and still unfolding series of financial crises. +We have gone from a world in which the US thought it had limitless resources and unbounded options to +one where the limits are clear; from a world in which you could work in the GB to one where you have to +work in the context of the G20; a world where new technologies and new powers play a bigger role. All of +those things would dictate a change in foreign policy regardless of who is in office. +Hillary Clinton has established a very solid foundation. The next step is to identify a couple of signature +issues - and have a couple of signature successes. That will take her to the next level. +David Rothkopf is a visiting scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace with expertise in +national security","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: Philippe Reines < B6 +Sent: Friday, June 11, 2010 7:44 PM +To: +Cc: CDM; Huma Abedin; Jake Sullivan +Subject: FT +Our clips service doesn't have the license necessary to provide FT (or Reuters) content, so here's the long awaited FT +profile -you'll be especially interested in the guest column David Milliband wrote: +An FT interview with Hillary Clinton +By Daniel Dombey +FT +June 11 2010 22:21 +This is what it is like to be Hillary Clinton. The motorcade, twisting and skidding through rain-splashed +streets for more than an hour; the public meetings and camera lights at journey's end; the spotlight that +has not let up for two decades. It is almost as if the 2008 US presidential election - hailed as the most +exciting for a generation - had never ended. +But this is a campaign without a vote. Today, Clinton's convoy is snaking through Sao Paulo, Brazil, not +South Hampton, New Hampshire. She herself is no longer an aspirant for the White House, despite what +the overnight flights, town hall meetings and strategy sessions that make up her gruelling schedule might +suggest. Instead, she is in Latin America to shore up relations with the region and promote a new idea of +US leadership, one very much built around herself. +She's had bigger and more ecstatic audiences than the 700-odd students and staff crammed into the hall +tonight at Zumbi dos Pradares, an Afro-Brazilian university, but she's still greeted by a wave of raised +arms as the audience snaps away at her with their mobile phones. +In the convoy moments before, she was wrapped in a shawl, suffering from a cold and angry at the delays +that pushed us into the side streets speckled with box-like bars, warehouses and love hotels while +Brazilian motorists sought to cut into our path. There is no sign of that now. With the metabolism of a +born politician, she feeds off the energy of her audience and takes questions from students, teachers and +local celebrities for an hour. Hillary Clinton never looks happier than when she is centre stage. +Most US secretaries of state wouldn't bother with this sort of event, much less initiate it and arrange for it +to be screened on the biggest local channel. Yet this is what Clinton does on almost every foreign trip - +and she seems to spend half her life on her official 727, crammed with long-time aides and armed +bodyguards. The schedule is backbreaking and constantly shifting. She has notched up more than a +quarter of a million miles since taking office. +On this Latin America trip, thrown into confusion by an earthquake in Chile, we have already visited four +countries in 24 hours. We go to tiny Uruguay, where our stay is so brief we check into a hotel just for a +shower; Argentina, where we spend almost all our time at the presidential palace; Chile itself, where we +don't leave the airport; and Brazil, where we spend almost a full day. +So what exactly is Clinton trying to do on this never-ending world tour? Travelling with her for a week, +talking to people inside and outside the administration, I tried to find out. +""We now have a case to make and it is not just a case that is made to the president or the prime minister +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 +or the foreign minister or an ambassador,"" she tells me a few weeks later, as she perches on a sofa in her +expansive office, with its view of the Lincoln Memorial. ""People now have a voice and an opinion and a +vote in many instances on the direction that their own societies take ... I want to model a different kind of +leadership that is open and willing to listen but [also] to stand our ground if necessary."" +She argues that these trips of hers help to restore the US's image in the wake of the Bush administration +- by making contact with public opinion abroad, and so boosting American power. Her aides say that, as a +battle-hardened politician who also happens to be one of the most famous women in the world, she is +ideally placed to carry out the task. But the deeper question is whether she is merely implementing the +foreign policy crafted by Barack Obama, her boss and former rival, or whether her role - and ambitions - +go beyond that. +Is she a kind of saleswoman-in-chief for the US, I ask? ""Well, I think that is part of the job,"" she replies, +toying with the napkin underneath her glass of water. ""If you are making a case for American values and +for American leadership, you have to make it where people now get information ... Given the bridges we +had to build and some of the repair work we had to do, we had to travel."" +As in S'ao Paulo, her system is under strain - ""I've been fighting this all day,"" she says as she masks a +cough set off by her allergies (Washington's cherry blossom trees are shedding their flowers). Life is still +hectic - the volcanic ash cloud has just all but paralysed Europe and televisions throughout the State +Department are showing the first British election debate. But Clinton remains enthusiastic, affable and +unhurried, her speech peppered with exclamations such as ""oh my gosh"", even as she discusses issues of +state. She politely asks if I have any updates for her about Europe's airspace shutdown and tells me she's +been talking to Norway's foreign minister about it. +""He said that this dust gets into engines of any size, even Air Force One - it's chunky! I don't know how +else to describe it,"" she says, an odd note of hilarity entering her voice as she pronounces the word +""chunky"". +Clinton often speaks in this eager, unvarnished way - a world away from the clipped, on-message manner +of her immediate predecessor in the post, Condoleezza Rice. If anything, she is an undiplomat - known +less for calibrated circumlocutions than for her plain speaking and sometimes her gaffes, a woman who +retains both a formidable political constituency and a laugh she once admitted can send cats scurrying +from a room. +Her staff point out she is only the third elected politician in 60 years to have served as secretary of state, +and the first to come from outside the foreign policy establishment since James Baker, George H.W. +Bush's right-hand man and perhaps her most illustrious recent predecessor. She may be the most +substantive politician in the office since William Jennings Bryan, the three-time presidential candidate who +served as secretary almost a century ago. ""Her stature on the world stage, her almost presidential +stature, has set her apart,"" Bill Burns, the top career diplomat at the State Department, tells me. ""Leaders +want to meet her. And the town hall meetings do make a difference with public opinion."" +State visitor Hillary Clinton is greeted by Air Force Base Commander Colonel Celso de Araujo at S'ao Paulo +airport in March +Back in Sao Paulo, the meeting at the university ranges far from the confines and dramatis personae of +traditional diplomacy. Annie, a young woman with red and blue dreadlocked hair, tells Clinton about her +dance and percussion classes and asks how to study in the US without paying college fees. A nervous +young man confesses himself lost halfway through an abstruse question about tariff policy; Clinton, +smiling and nodding in that vaguely automatic way of hers, bears with him all the same. Another female +student asks for an autograph. When answering, Clinton sometimes opens her eyes wide as she +emphasises a phrase; at other moments, seemingly at random, she pulls her hands apart as if +demonstrating the size of a fish. +Then a law student called Marina asks about abortion - which is illegal in Brazil - and Clinton moves into +treacherous terrain.

""Wealthy women +have rights in every country,"" she says. ""And poor women don't.""

But she wasn't laying out a prescription for Brazil. She was +sharing her experience as a woman in American politics and as secretary of state."" It's true: Clinton +doesn't quite cross the line. Onstage, she is controlled without seeming artificial, convivial without +appearing over-effusive, what a previous age would call a real trouper. At the podium she looks straight +ahead, her lips carefully expressionless. Still, the old competitive instincts haven't left her. Perhaps it is +the lecterns at press conferences, reminiscent of the Democratic presidential debates, but on exiting the +podium at a joint appearance with Argentina's president Cristina Fernandez, Clinton makes clear her +satisfaction at having had the last word. The expert debater who usually bested Obama has not left the +stage. +Yet that competitive urge coexists with what one insider describes as her ""almost inhuman loyalty"" +towards Obama. Her mastery of the facts - an ""information carnivore"" one of her officials calls her - +comes despite the consensus in much of Washington that her role consists largely of implementing the +foreign policy Obama and his inner circle have framed, rather than helping frame it herself. +In Sao Paulo, she shows her loyalty in striking fashion when she is asked repeatedly about positive +discrimination - another sensitive topic in Brazil - not least because, Clinton herself observes, Afro- +Brazilians account for more than half the country's population but only 2 per cent of university students. +""That suggests to me that some special steps need to be taken [in] recruiting and admitting students so +that they can have a chance to succeed,"" she tells the hall, again inching towards domestic politics, before +speaking of her pride in the progress the US civil rights movement has made in the past half-century. She +says: ""The election of Barack Obama, many believe, was the greatest accomplishment of all because it +demonstrated that an African-American could be elected president of the United States."" +Among the crowd, I catch my breath and scribble down her words.

Praising what he +calls her ""Terminator-quality durability and determination,"" he adds: ""She's done an amazing amount of +work, judging that the way to build a strategic vision is bottom up, by mastering the details."" +Indeed, Clinton's ability to master the most arcane foreign policy briefs is the marvel of her building. She +has dropped into obscure working groups and shown an unnerving knowledge of their details. At her +confirmation hearings last year she exchanged facts about the arctic with an Alaskan senator; at the +meeting in So Paulo she becomes enthused about freight transport policy both in Brazil and the US. She +herself acknowledges that finding her feet on foreign policy was something of a struggle, despite her +campaign claims of expertise in the field. ""It was so intellectually challenging, just to get our arms around +all of these issues,"" she says. During her first year, she was criticised for apparent gaffes - including the +way she called for Israel to halt all building of settlements on occupied territory only to hail a partial freeze +a few months later as unprecedented. On an election campaign, she says, ""you may be in a different city +four times a day but you have a message you're trying to deliver that is repetitive and aimed at your +audience. But here you might deal with 10 different countries' problems, six different regional or global +challenges in the course of a day."" +As the Latin America tour shows, she is now trying to do both - travel incessantly and solve an array of +international issues. She is at the forefront of the US's efforts to consolidate relations with a number of +important countries - predominantly Russia and China, but also rising powers such as Brazil, Turkey, +Indonesia and South Africa - and to cool down anti-American feeling in hotspots, notably Pakistan. She +says the push is working, hailing a ""change in public opinion in places that were pretty negative about the +US"" - a reference to Russia and Pakistan. But it is far from smooth sailing. Differences about Iran and +over Israel's raid on aid-bearing ships off Gaza have stoked tensions with Turkey and Brazil recently, amid +questioning of the effectiveness of the Obama administration's policies. +During my time with her on the road, the stop in Brazil is the focal point - not surprising given the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 +country's increased profile as Latin America leader. Clinton is now heading the administration's push to +secure sanctions on Iran, and in Brasilia she tries and fails to win President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva to her +cause. She employs an almost combative tone at a press conference with Celso Amorim, Brazil's foreign +minister. At moments she appears to barely contain her irritation, as she denounces ""an Iran that runs to +Brazil"" as well as other countries such as Turkey and China ""telling different things to different people to +avoid international sanctions"". Amorim is spiky in his own way - drawing parallels to the 1990s sanctions +on Iraq and the claims about weapons of mass destruction before the 2003 war. ""Of course, I don't agree +with everything the Secretary said,"" he says. +It is not a happy experience - indeed this past week both Brazil and Turkey voted against sanctions at the +United Nations - yet Hillary Clinton is nowhere near giving up. Years ago, one of Bill Clinton's biographers +described his approach to government as a ""permanent campaign"", and it appears to be his wife's +preferred form of existence as well. If there is one constant in Clinton's life, it is that she never throws in +her cards, whether what motivates her is power or public service. +""Never, never!"" she exclaims, when I ask whether she ever thought of walking off into the wings after the +frustrations and indignities of her time at the White House. ""I have a very realistic sense of what high- +stakes politics requires and it took me a while to get there because it's shocking when you are in the +arena ... but once you figure it out, you can take it seriously for purposes of analysis and understanding, +but you can't take it personally."" Such treatment seems to rankle all the same. She's been listening to +coverage ahead of the British debate and is plainly irritated by the coverage of the leaders' wives. +""Whether a woman's running for office or she's supporting her husband who's running for office and she +gets criticised for wearing open-toed shoes or for the colour of her coat, there's just a lot of history that +you bear if you are a woman who puts herself out in the political arena,"" she says. +Another country Clinton boards her official 727 to fly from Sao Paulo to Costa Rica +Injustice towards women appears to be the issue that most enthuses Clinton in this job - as in her many +other incarnations in American public life, whether as First Lady or before. ""I feel passionately it is in not +just the American national security interests but the world's, that women be given the opportunities and +the tools to make the most out of their own lives,"" she says. +In the 1990s she steered clear of reading the newspapers because of the way she was treated. Today, she +says, ""I certainly don't read coverage of me, I read what else is going on that I need to know about to do +my job."" ""It's all baloney,"" says Philippe Reines, her press adviser, who set up the meeting with her and is +sitting to one side in her office. +""Yeah, yeah, right, that's what he tells me,"" Clinton responds. +I wonder. She may not read the stories about her, but she has boosted her domestic profile still further by +talking to American magazines such as Esquire, Vogue and Parade. To what end? Clinton has said she will +only serve one four-year term as secretary of state - understandable, given the grind of the job. When I +ask whether she expects a woman president in the next decade or so, she responds: ""I'd love that, +obviously I would love that. I want to be front and centre when it happens."" +""Any chance it would be you?"" I ask. +""No, no, I don't think that's in the cards,"" Clinton says. She's given more categoric denials in the past. ""I +think that there's a whole generation of young women and not so young, but mature, seasoned women +who are earning their stripes and recognising how tough it is out there. It is not for the faint of heart to +run for president, and I believe it is harder for women, it just is, and that's just a fact."" But, says one US +official, ""all the profiles and all this media treatment undercut the argument that she is finished with +electoral politics. Why do all this stuff? She's already Hillary Clinton. You have to ask: 'What's the idea +behind raising her domestic profile still further?"" +Indeed she is now, by some counts, the most popular politician in America and some in Washington say +she could be a good fit for the vice-presidential slot in the 2012 elections. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 +Back in Sao Paulo, once the town hall meeting is over, Clinton faces a seven-hour flight to Costa Rica. The +journey goes on and on, and as saleswoman-in-chief for the US in an unruly world, she faces a long, hard +road. Today the US sometimes struggles to assert itself on the world stage. But the obstacles are rather +fewer if the product she is pitching is herself. A secretary of state like none before her, Hillary Clinton, +long one of the most formidable figures in US politics, is looking stronger than ever. +Daniel Dombey is the FT's US diplomatic correspondent +David Miliband: ""Hillary is a rock star ... she has a great sense of fun, and a great sense of humour"" +It's too early to start chalking up a scorecard because Hillary Clinton, and the Obama administration, is +laying the foundations for long-term change in America's foreign policy. The challenges are immense - +probably more difficult than the inheritance of any previous administration. But American leadership is +essential and a commitment to multilateralism - in fact multi, multilateralism using different and +overlapping forums - is real and right. +You also have to remember that Hillary is a rock star. When I arrived at the Nato Foreign Ministers +meeting in March 2009, it was a nice surprise that all the staff, never mind the press, seemed to have +turned out in droves for my arrival. Then I realised that Hillary was 10 minutes behind me. +That said, the thing that most surprised me about working with Clinton was not her intelligence or her +hard work, all of which are well known, but that behind the serious exterior is someone who has a great +sense of fun, and a great sense of humour. She has seen politics from all sides, and can laugh at herself +as well as at others. +She's a remarkably good listener, always synthesising ideas and opinions to develop her own. She thinks +strategically as well as tactically. She's also very, very unpompous. Hillary is a very political person but in +a particular way, she honours politics and public service and believes that democratic politics is not a +necessary evil, but a calling of value and vocation. She knows you win some and you lose some, but it's +essential to take part. +There's one other thing. Hillary is a people person in that she thinks deeply about the psychology of the +people she's dealing with. Their motivation, their loyalties, their culture. It's real emotional intelligence in +trying to understand why people disagree and how you can get them to agree. I think that must be why +so many other members of the administration say she is a very good colleague. +David Miliband is shadow foreign secretary +Gideon Rachman: ""Relations between the White House and the State Department are not particularly +close"" +A school teacher asked to write a report on Hillary Clinton's stint as secretary of state would have to give +her 10/10 for effort but a rather more modest mark for actual achievements - maybe a six or a seven. +Secretaries of state are generally judged on two criteria. First, how have they done in the endless +bureaucratic turf wars that characterise Washington politics? Second, how effective have they been in +promoting US foreign policy in the wider world? Success in one area usually helps in the other. Henry +Kissinger was a superb Washington infighter - and his close relationship with President Nixon made him +all the more effective overseas. Colin Powell, George W. Bush's first secretary of state, was widely +admired outside the US - but came out on the wrong side of many of the Washington battles, which +limited his ability to get things done in the wider world. +Hillary Clinton has skilfully avoided being sucked into the debilitating Washington struggles that so +damaged Powell. Despite the often poisonous rivalry between the Obama and Clinton camps during the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 +campaign, Clinton has a good working relationship with the president. But while relations between the +White House and the State Department are cordial, they do not seem to be particularly close. Clinton +appointed many loyalists from her own campaign to the State Department, with the result that State is +rather detached from Obama's inner circle. Obama's penchant for making high-profile speeches in foreign +capitals such as Cairo, Prague, Tokyo and Istanbul means that the president himself has done more than +anyone else to define his administration's approach to the world. +That still leaves a role for Clinton to fill in the crucial details of policy. But special representatives have +been appointed to deal with Afghanistan and the Middle East - and the Treasury is critical to China policy. +Asked about Clinton's impact as secretary of state, one senior European policymaker purses his lips and +says: ""She's done some great trips, and she's highly professional. But it's hard to see any particular area +where she has really driven policy."" +Gideon Rachman is the FT's chief foreign affairs columnist +David Rothkopf: ""When she has been asked to deliver tough messages, she has done so unflinchingly"" +Hillary Clinton has been a cautious secretary of state: she has protected the president well and pursued +his agenda without upstaging him - an early concern, given her stature. She has worked very well with +other members of the cabinet, and is reconsidering the role and structure of the State Department. +That includes a review of the role of diplomacy going forward. Clinton has not only acknowledged the rise +of new powers and a changing global power structure but has taken steps to reshape US foreign policy +structure accordingly. An important part of that has been recognising the importance of co-operating with +private and non-state actors such as NG0s, as well as dealing with non-state threats. +When the administration has called upon her to deliver tough messages, she has done so unflinchingly. +This has allowed the president to articulate a strategic vision which Clinton then goes about implementing. +Still, neither the secretary of state nor the president determines the global situation. The US may be the +most powerful country in the world but it is one among many powerful countries, and many aspects of the +situation we face today are beyond our control. The Obama administration has been dealt an extremely +difficult hand: not only Iraq and Afghanistan, but Iran and North Korea's nuclear programmes, the rise of +emerging powers and a complex and still unfolding series of financial crises. +We have gone from a world in which the US thought it had limitless resources and unbounded options to +one where the limits are clear; from a world in which you could work in the GB to one where you have to +work in the context of the G20; a world where new technologies and new powers play a bigger role. All of +those things would dictate a change in foreign policy regardless of who is in office. +Hillary Clinton has established a very solid foundation. The next step is to identify a couple of signature +issues - and have a couple of signature successes. That will take her to the next level. +David Rothkopf is a visiting scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace with expertise in +national security +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769875 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5237,C05769878,FT,"Reines, Philippe",jake.sullivan,87,2010-06-11T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0083/DOC_0C05769878/C05769878.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FT,Evergreen,Philippe Reines <,CDM; Jake +RELEASE IN PART B6","From: Philippe Reines < +Date: Fri, 11 Jun 2010 19:44:24 -0400 +To: Evergreen +Cc: CDM; Jake +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: jake.sullivan +Sent: Friday, June 11, 2010 9:24 PM +To: Philippe Reines; H +Cc: CDM; Huma Abedin +Subject: Re: FT +I dont know what others think, but I quite enjoyed this.

The motorcade, twisting and skidding through rain-splashed +streets for more than an hour; the public meetings and camera lights at journey's end; the spotlight that +has not let up for two decades. It is almost as if the 2008 US presidential election — hailed as the most +exciting for a generation — had never ended. +But this is a campaign without a vote. Today, Clinton's convoy is snaking through Sao Paulo, Brazil, not +South Hampton, New Hampshire. She herself is no longer an aspirant for the White House, despite what +the overnight flights, town hall meetings and strategy sessions that make up her gruelling schedule might +suggest. Instead, she is in Latin America to shore up relations with the region and promote a new idea of +US leadership, one very much built around herself. +She's had bigger and more ecstatic audiences than the 700-odd students and staff crammed into the hall +tonight at Zumbi dos Pradares, an Afro-Brazilian university, but she's still greeted by a wave of raised +arms as the audience snaps away at her with their mobile phones. +In the convoy moments before, she was wrapped in a shawl, suffering from a cold and angry at the delays +that pushed us into the side streets speckled with box-like bars, warehouses and love hotels while +Brazilian motorists sought to cut into our path. There is no sign of that now. With the metabolism of a +born politician, she feeds off the energy of her audience and takes questions from students, teachers and +local celebrities for an hour. Hillary Clinton never looks happier than when she is centre stage. +Most US secretaries of state wouldn't bother with this sort of event, much less initiate it and arrange for it +to be screened on the biggest local channel. Yet this is what Clinton does on almost every foreign trip — +and she seems to spend half her life on her official 727, crammed with long-time aides and armed +bodyguards. The schedule is backbreaking and constantly shifting. She has notched up more than a +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 +quarter of a million miles since taking office. +On this Latin America trip, thrown into confusion by an earthquake in Chile, we have already visited four +countries in 24 hours. We go to tiny Uruguay, where our stay is so brief we check into a hotel just for a +shower; Argentina, where we spend almost all our time at the presidential palace; Chile itself, where we +don't leave the airport; and Brazil, where we spend almost a full day. +So what exactly is Clinton trying to do on this never-ending world tour? Travelling with her for a week, +talking to people inside and outside the administration, I tried to find out. +""We now have a case to make and it is not just a case that is made to the president or the prime minister +or the foreign minister or an ambassador,"" she tells me a few weeks later, as she perches on a sofa in her +expansive office, with its view of the Lincoln Memorial. ""People now have a voice and an opinion and a +vote in many instances on the direction that their own societies take ... I want to model a different kind of +leadership that is open and willing to listen but [also] to stand our ground if necessary."" +She argues that these trips of hers help to restore the US's image in the wake of the Bush administration +- by making contact with public opinion abroad, and so boosting American power. Her aides say that, as a +battle-hardened politician who also happens to be one of the most famous women in the world, she is +ideally placed to carry out the task. But the deeper question is whether she is merely implementing the +foreign policy crafted by Barack Obama, her boss and former rival, or whether her role - and ambitions - +go beyond that. +Is she a kind of saleswoman-in-chief for the US, I ask? ""Well, I think that is part of the job,"" she replies, +toying with the napkin underneath her glass of water. ""If you are making a case for American values and +for American leadership, you have to make it where people now get information ... Given the bridges we +had to build and some of the repair work we had to do, we had to travel."" +As in Sao Paulo, her system is under strain - ""I've been fighting this all day,"" she says as she masks a +cough set off by her allergies (Washington's cherry blossom trees are shedding their flowers). Life is still +hectic - the volcanic ash cloud has just all but paralysed Europe and televisions throughout the State +Department are showing the first British election debate. But Clinton remains enthusiastic, affable and +unhurried, her speech peppered with exclamations such as ""oh my gosh"", even as she discusses issues of +state. She politely asks if I have any updates for her about Europe's airspace shutdown and tells me she's +been talking to Norway's foreign minister about it. +""He said that this dust gets into engines of any size, even Air Force One - it's chunky! I don't know how +else to describe it,"" she says, an odd note of hilarity entering her voice as she pronounces the word +""chunky"". +Clinton often speaks in this eager, unvarnished way - a world away from the clipped, on-message manner +of her immediate predecessor in the post, Condoleezza Rice. If anything, she is an undiplomat - known +less for calibrated circumlocutions than for her plain speaking and sometimes her gaffes, a woman who +retains both a formidable political constituency and a laugh she once admitted can send cats scurrying +from a room. +Her staff point out she is only the third elected politician in 60 years to have served as secretary of state, +and the first to come from outside the foreign policy establishment since James Baker, George H.W. +Bush's right-hand man and perhaps her most illustrious recent predecessor. She may be the most +substantive politician in the office since William Jennings Bryan, the three-time presidential candidate who +served as secretary almost a century ago. ""Her stature on the world stage, her almost presidential +stature, has set her apart,"" Bill Burns, the top career diplomat at the State Department, tells me. ""Leaders +want to meet her. And the town hall meetings do make a difference with public opinion."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 +State visitor Hillary Clinton is greeted by Air Force Base Commander Colonel Celso de Araujo at Sao Paulo +airport in March +Back in Sao Paulo, the meeting at the university ranges far from the confines and dramatis personae of +traditional diplomacy. Annie, a young woman with red and blue dreadlocked hair, tells Clinton about her +dance and percussion classes and asks how to study in the US without paying college fees. A nervous +young man confesses himself lost halfway through an abstruse question about tariff policy; Clinton, +smiling and nodding in that vaguely automatic way of hers, bears with him all the same. Another female +student asks for an autograph. When answering, Clinton sometimes opens her eyes wide as she +emphasises a phrase; at other moments, seemingly at random, she pulls her hands apart as if +demonstrating the size of a fish. +Then a law student called Marina asks about abortion - which is illegal in Brazil - and Clinton moves into +treacherous terrain. She speaks of the Brazilian hospital she visited in the 1990s that treated not just +expectant mothers but women suffering from the consequences of backstreet abortions. ""Wealthy women +have rights in every country,"" she says. ""And poor women don't."" Her strength of feeling can't be hidden +as she denounces ""the great toll that illegal abortions take and the denial of women being able to exercise +such a fundamental personal right"". +Tom Shannon, the US ambassador to Brazil, tells me later: ""I understand the possible concern that we +might have come close to domestic issues. But she wasn't laying out a prescription for Brazil. She was +sharing her experience as a woman in American politics and as secretary of state."" It's true: Clinton +doesn't quite cross the line. Onstage, she is controlled without seeming artificial, convivial without +appearing over-effusive, what a previous age would call a real trouper. At the podium she looks straight +ahead, her lips carefully expressionless. Still, the old competitive instincts haven't left her. Perhaps it is +the lecterns at press conferences, reminiscent of the Democratic presidential debates, but on exiting the +podium at a joint appearance with Argentina's president Cristina Fernandez, Clinton makes clear her +satisfaction at having had the last word. The expert debater who usually bested Obama has not left the +stage. +Yet that competitive urge coexists with what one insider describes as her ""almost inhuman loyalty"" +towards Obama. Her mastery of the facts - an ""information carnivore"" one of her officials calls her - +comes despite the consensus in much of Washington that her role consists largely of implementing the +foreign policy Obama and his inner circle have framed, rather than helping frame it herself. +In Sao Paulo, she shows her loyalty in striking fashion when she is asked repeatedly about positive +discrimination - another sensitive topic in Brazil - not least because, Clinton herself observes, Afro- +Brazilians account for more than half the country's population but only 2 per cent of university students. +""That suggests to me that some special steps need to be taken [in] recruiting and admitting students so +that they can have a chance to succeed,"" she tells the hall, again inching towards domestic politics, before +speaking of her pride in the progress the US civil rights movement has made in the past half-century. She +says: ""The election of Barack Obama, many believe, was the greatest accomplishment of all because it +demonstrated that an African-American could be elected president of the United States."" +Among the crowd, I catch my breath and scribble down her words. It's hard to think of a more fulsome +statement from the woman who fought so hard against Obama - and who squandered a huge poll lead +and millions of dollars in the struggle against him. +The great collaborator Clinton has established strong working relationships within the Obama +administration +When I ask Clinton later about how she managed to move from the antagonism of the primary race to the +obedience of office, she dismisses my question with an anodyne ""that's politics"". She adds: ""We're +working really hard and well together ... It just never comes up any more, it seems like ancient history to +me."" Not so ancient, I think, that she is willing to admit the failings of her campaign. ""I always run +inclusive and successful organisations,"" she retorts when I ask her whether she'd applied any lessons from +that searing experience to her new post. +She admits she didn't want the job at State - she says she was exhausted by the election and missed the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 +Senate - ""but at the end of the day, I'm pretty old-fashioned and if the president asks you to do +something, you'd better have a really good reason why you can't."" Also, she adds: ""Suppose I had won +and I were asking him to be in my cabinet ... I would have wanted him to say yes."" +Others say the relationship is more complex, that by dint of her loyalty and unflagging hard work, Clinton +has moved closer to the charmed circle and made herself an even more formidable political force than +before. ""Quite simply, she gives good advice and the president over a year and a half has recognised +that,"" says Anne-Marie Slaughter, head of the State Department policy planning unit. ""The relationship is +based on her performance in the job."" +By all accounts, it's a collaborative partnership, though not perhaps a warm one. Clinton boasts a good +working relationship with the main players of the administration - and has formed something of an +alliance with defence secretary Robert Gates, although on life-and-death issues such as Afghanistan, it is +Gates, not her, who has taken the lead. As one official told me, secretaries of state have often either been +popular with their own department - Colin Powell comes to mind - or with the rest of the administration - +as was Condoleezza Rice - but Clinton has managed to be both. +In truth, Clinton's language remains harder-edged than Obama's - she recently claimed that Iran's +Revolutionary Guard had staged a slow-motion coup - and she has sometimes been more willing than he +is to hint at using the military. ""She seems to step up with a bit of spine just at the right time,"" says Kurt +Volker, a US ambassador to Nato under George W. Bush. +She has also assumed an ever more prominent role in talking to leaders such as Benjamin Netanyahu of +Israel and Hamid Karzai of Afghanistan - apparently because she is trusted both by them and Obama. +Meanwhile, she has been careful to keep her husband, the former US president, in the background. Aides +say they have barely seen him in the building - though Clinton herself says that behind the scenes Bill +Clinton gives her strategic advice. ""One of his favourite sayings, that I remind myself of all the time, is a +kind of baseball saying,"" she says: ""Don't major in the minors; keep your eye on not just the headlines +but the trend lines."" +It is her co-operative stance rather than any notable effort to set out a grand vision of her own that is the +chief theme of her time so far at State. When I ask Clinton to name her proudest achievement in office, +she replies ""the effective and collaborative approach that this administration has taken towards identifying +and solving problems."" A more process-oriented, less provocative answer would be hard to imagine. +But maybe, I think, the US has less scope for grand strategy than it did in the past couple of decades, +when the country seemed to bestride the world colossus-style. Clinton herself suggests that so formidable +are the tasks confronting the US that the administration has little scope to enter into internecine fights but +needs instead to focus on the challenges to hand. Whatever the reason for her stance, it seems to be a +smart decision - by all accounts she's overcome many of the suspicions the White House retinue had +towards her. +""It's fair to say that she was not born into the administration's inner circle but slowly but surely, for the +most consequential decisions, she now has a prime seat at the table,"" says one official. Praising what he +calls her ""Terminator-quality durability and determination,"" he adds: ""She's done an amazing amount of +work, judging that the way to build a strategic vision is bottom up, by mastering the details."" +Indeed, Clinton's ability to master the most arcane foreign policy briefs is the marvel of her building. She +has dropped into obscure working groups and shown an unnerving knowledge of their details. At her +confirmation hearings last year she exchanged facts about the arctic with an Alaskan senator; at the +meeting in Sao Paulo she becomes enthused about freight transport policy both in Brazil and the US. She +herself acknowledges that finding her feet on foreign policy was something of a struggle, despite her +campaign claims of expertise in the field. ""It was so intellectually challenging, just to get our arms around +all of these issues,"" she says. During her first year, she was criticised for apparent gaffes - including the +way she called for Israel to halt all building of settlements on occupied territory only to hail a partial freeze +a few months later as unprecedented. On an election campaign, she says, ""you may be in a different city +four times a day but you have a message you're trying to deliver that is repetitive and aimed at your +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 +audience.

She is at the forefront of the US's efforts to consolidate relations with a number of +important countries - predominantly Russia and China, but also rising powers such as Brazil, Turkey, +Indonesia and South Africa - and to cool down anti-American feeling in hotspots, notably Pakistan. She +says the push is working, hailing a ""change in public opinion in places that were pretty negative about the +US"" - a reference to Russia and Pakistan. But it is far from smooth sailing. Differences about Iran and +over Israel's raid on aid-bearing ships off Gaza have stoked tensions with Turkey and Brazil recently, amid +questioning of the effectiveness of the Obama administration's policies. +During my time with her on the road, the stop in Brazil is the focal point - not surprising given the +country's increased profile as Latin America leader. Clinton is now heading the administration's push to +secure sanctions on Iran, and in Brasilia she tries and fails to win President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva to her +cause. She employs an almost combative tone at a press conference with Celso Amorim, Brazil's foreign +minister. At moments she appears to barely contain her irritation, as she denounces ""an Iran that runs to +Brazil"" as well as other countries such as Turkey and China ""telling different things to different people to +avoid international sanctions"". Amorim is spiky in his own way - drawing parallels to the 1990s sanctions +on Iraq and the claims about weapons of mass destruction before the 2003 war. ""Of course, I don't agree +with everything the Secretary said,"" he says. +It is not a happy experience - indeed this past week both Brazil and Turkey voted against sanctions at the +United Nations - yet Hillary Clinton is nowhere near giving up. Years ago, one of Bill Clinton's biographers +described his approach to government as a ""permanent campaign"", and it appears to be his wife's +preferred form of existence as well. If there is one constant in Clinton's life, it is that she never throws in +her cards, whether what motivates her is power or public service. +""Never, never!"" she exclaims, when I ask whether she ever thought of walking off into the wings after the +frustrations and indignities of her time at the White House. ""I have a very realistic sense of what high- +stakes politics requires and it took me a while to get there because it's shocking when you are in the +arena ... but once you figure it out, you can take it seriously for purposes of analysis and understanding, +but you can't take it personally."" Such treatment seems to rankle all the same. She's been listening to +coverage ahead of the British debate and is plainly irritated by the coverage of the leaders' wives. +""Whether a woman's running for office or she's supporting her husband who's running for office and she +gets criticised for wearing open-toed shoes or for the colour of her coat, there's just a lot of history that +you bear if you are a woman who puts herself out in the political arena,"" she says. +Another country Clinton boards her official 727 to fly from Sao Paulo to Costa Rica +Injustice towards women appears to be the issue that most enthuses Clinton in this job - as in her many +other incarnations in American public life, whether as First Lady or before. ""I feel passionately it is in not +just the American national security interests but the world's, that women be given the opportunities and +the tools to make the most out of their own lives,"" she says. +In the 1990s she steered clear of reading the newspapers because of the way she was treated. Today, she +says, ""I certainly don't read coverage of me, I read what else is going on that I need to know about to do +my job."" ""It's all baloney,"" says Philippe Reines, her press adviser, who set up the meeting with her and is +sitting to one side in her office. +""Yeah, yeah, right, that's what he tells me,"" Clinton responds. +I wonder. She may not read the stories about her, but she has boosted her domestic profile still further by +talking to American magazines such as Esquire, Vogue and Parade. To what end? Clinton has said she will +only serve one four-year term as secretary of state - understandable, given the grind of the job. When I +ask whether she expects a woman president in the next decade or so, she responds: ""I'd love that, +obviously I would love that. I want to be front and centre when it happens."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 +""Any chance it would be you?"" I ask. +""No, no, I don't think that's in the cards,"" Clinton says. She's given more categoric denials in the past. ""I +think that there's a whole generation of young women and not so young, but mature, seasoned women +who are earning their stripes and recognising how tough it is out there. It is not for the faint of heart to +run for president, and I believe it is harder for women, it just is, and that's just a fact."" But, says one US +official, ""all the profiles and all this media treatment undercut the argument that she is finished with +electoral politics. Why do all this stuff? She's already Hillary Clinton. You have to ask: 'What's the idea +behind raising her domestic profile still further?"" +Indeed she is now, by some counts, the most popular politician in America and some in Washington say +she could be a good fit for the vice-presidential slot in the 2012 elections. +Back in Sao Paulo, once the town hall meeting is over, Clinton faces a seven-hour flight to Costa Rica. The +journey goes on and on, and as saleswoman-in-chief for the US in an unruly world, she faces a long, hard +road. Today the US sometimes struggles to assert itself on the world stage. But the obstacles are rather +fewer if the product she is pitching is herself. A secretary of state like none before her, Hillary Clinton, +long one of the most formidable figures in US politics, is looking stronger than ever. +Daniel Dombey is the FT's US diplomatic correspondent +David Miliband: ""Hillary is a rock star ... she has a great sense of fun, and a great sense of humour"" +It's too early to start chalking up a scorecard because Hillary Clinton, and the Obama administration, is +laying the foundations for long-term change in America's foreign policy. The challenges are immense - +probably more difficult than the inheritance of any previous administration. But American leadership is +essential and a commitment to multilateralism - in fact multi, multilateralism using different and +overlapping forums - is real and right. +You also have to remember that Hillary is a rock star. When I arrived at the Nato Foreign Ministers +meeting in March 2009, it was a nice surprise that all the staff, never mind the press, seemed to have +turned out in droves for my arrival. Then I realised that Hillary was 10 minutes behind me. +That said, the thing that most surprised me about working with Clinton was not her intelligence or her +hard work, all of which are well known, but that behind the serious exterior is someone who has a great +sense of fun, and a great sense of humour. She has seen politics from all sides, and can laugh at herself +as well as at others. +She's a remarkably good listener, always synthesising ideas and opinions to develop her own. She thinks +strategically as well as tactically. She's also very, very unpompous. Hillary is a very political person but in +a particular way, she honours politics and public service and believes that democratic politics is not a +necessary evil, but a calling of value and vocation. She knows you win some and you lose some, but it's +essential to take part. +There's one other thing. Hillary is a people person in that she thinks deeply about the psychology of the +people she's dealing with. Their motivation, their loyalties, their culture. It's real emotional intelligence in +trying to understand why people disagree and how you can get them to agree. I think that must be why +so many other members of the administration say she is a very good colleague. +David Miliband is shadow foreign secretary +Gideon Rachman: ""Relations between the White House and the State Department are not particularly +close"" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 +A school teacher asked to write a report on Hillary Clinton's stint as secretary of state would have to give +her 10/10 for effort but a rather more modest mark for actual achievements - maybe a six or a seven. +Secretaries of state are generally judged on two criteria. First, how have they done in the endless +bureaucratic turf wars that characterise Washington politics? Second, how effective have they been in +promoting US foreign policy in the wider world? Success in one area usually helps in the other. Henry +Kissinger was a superb Washington infighter - and his close relationship with President Nixon made him +all the more effective overseas. Colin Powell, George W. Bush's first secretary of state, was widely +admired outside the US - but came out on the wrong side of many of the Washington battles, which +limited his ability to get things done in the wider world. +Hillary Clinton has skilfully avoided being sucked into the debilitating Washington struggles that so +damaged Powell. Despite the often poisonous rivalry between the Obama and Clinton camps during the +campaign, Clinton has a good working relationship with the president. But while relations between the +White House and the State Department are cordial, they do not seem to be particularly close. Clinton +appointed many loyalists from her own campaign to the State Department, with the result that State is +rather detached from Obama's inner circle. Obama's penchant for making high-profile speeches in foreign +capitals such as Cairo, Prague, Tokyo and Istanbul means that the president himself has done more than +anyone else to define his administration's approach to the world. +That still leaves a role for Clinton to fill in the crucial details of policy. But special representatives have +been appointed to deal with Afghanistan and the Middle East - and the Treasury is critical to China policy. +Asked about Clinton's impact as secretary of state, one senior European policymaker purses his lips and +says: ""She's done some great trips, and she's highly professional. But it's hard to see any particular area +where she has really driven policy."" +Gideon Rachman is the FT's chief foreign affairs columnist +David Rothkopf: ""When she has been asked to deliver tough messages, she has done so unflinchingly"" +Hillary Clinton has been a cautious secretary of state: she has protected the president well and pursued +his agenda without upstaging him - an early concern, given her stature. She has worked very well with +other members of the cabinet, and is reconsidering the role and structure of the State Department. +That includes a review of the role of diplomacy going forward. Clinton has not only acknowledged the rise +of new powers and a changing global power structure but has taken steps to reshape US foreign policy +structure accordingly. An important part of that has been recognising the importance of co-operating with +private and non-state actors such as NG05, as well as dealing with non-state threats. +When the administration has called upon her to deliver tough messages, she has done so unflinchingly. +This has allowed the president to articulate a strategic vision which Clinton then goes about implementing. +Still, neither the secretary of state nor the president determines the global situation. The US may be the +most powerful country in the world but it is one among many powerful countries, and many aspects of the +situation we face today are beyond our control. The Obama administration has been dealt an extremely +difficult hand: not only Iraq and Afghanistan, but Iran and North Korea's nuclear programmes, the rise of +emerging powers and a complex and still unfolding series of financial crises. +We have gone from a world in which the US thought it had limitless resources and unbounded options to +one where the limits are clear; from a world in which you could work in the G8 to one where you have to +work in the context of the G20; a world where new technologies and new powers play a bigger role. All of +those things would dictate a change in foreign policy regardless of who is in office. +Hillary Clinton has established a very solid foundation. The next step is to identify a couple of signature +issues - and have a couple of signature successes. That will take her to the next level. +David Rothkopf is a visiting scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace with expertise in +national security +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769878 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5238,C05769879,(REUTERS) KYRGYZSTAN ASKS RUSSIA TO HELP QUELL ETHNIC CLASHES,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-06-12T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0083/DOC_0C05769879/C05769879.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Fw: (Reuters) Kyrgyzstan asks Russia to help quell ethnic clashes,,"Abedin, Huma ",SES-O_Shift-II,"Saturday, June 12, 2010 9:44 AM",F-2014-20439,C05769879,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769879 Date: 08/31/2015 _ +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Saturday, June 12, 2010 9:44 AM +To: +Subject: Fw: (Reuters) Kyrgyzstan asks Russia to help quell ethnic clashes +From: Pearce, Jennifer +To: NEWS-SCA; NEWS-EUR; NEWS-Mahogany; S_SpecialAssistants +Cc: SES-O_Shift-II +Sent: Sat Jun 12 07:53:56 2010 +Subject: (Reuters) Kyrgyzstan asks Russia to help quell ethnic clashes +OSH - Kyrgyzstan appealed for Russian help to stop ethnic fighting that has killed at least 62 and left parts of its second- +largest city in flames, the worst violence since the president was toppled in April.

More than 100 people have been killed and +about 1250 wounded in four days of ethnic violence spreading across southern Kyrgyzstan. Doctors and rights activists +say the actual toll is likely far higher than that official count, because wounded Uzbeks are too afraid of being attacked +again to go to hospitals. Mobs of ethnic Kyrgyz have been reportedly torching Uzbek villages and neighborhoods, +slaughtering residents. Authorities in Uzbekistan says more than 75,000 refugees have fled its neighbor. Most are said +to be women, children and the elderly, and many have gunshot wounds. While the Kremlin has refused Kyrgyzstan's +request for military help quelling the violence, the Interfax news agency reports Russia has sent about 300 paratroopers +to reinforce security at its air base. Kyrgyzstan hosts both U.S. and Russian military air bases, but they are in the north, +away from the ethnic rioting. +Justin Deyo +U.S. Department of State +Operations Center (S/ES-0) +202-647-1512 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769896 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5254,C05769897,S-SAUDABAYEV,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-06-13T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0083/DOC_0C05769897/C05769897.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: S-Saudabayev call,,"Sullivan, Jacob 1 ","Abedin, Huma ","Sunday, June 13, 2010 12:56 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769897,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,I can talk tonight - whenever is convenient for you.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769897 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B5 +From: Sullivan, Jacob 1 +Sent: Sunday, June 13, 2010 12:56 PM +To: +Subject: Re: S-Saudabayev call +I can talk tonight - whenever is convenient for you. +Original Message +From: H +To: Sullivan, Jacobi +Sent: Sun Jun 13 11:50:23 2010 +Subject: Re: S-Saudabayev call +Ok.

Stanley McChrystal, the overall commander in Afghanistan, that will appear in Rolling Stone magazine on Friday. +In the eight-page article, released to reporters on Monday ahead of publication, McChrystal appears to belittle Vice President Joe Biden and accuses Karl Eikenberry, the U.S. +ambassador to Kabul, of undermining his war plan within the administration. +Asked by the Rolling Stone reporter about what he now feels of the war strategy advocated by Biden last fall — fewer troops, more drone attacks — the article reports that +McChrystal and his aides attempted to come up with a good one-liner to dismiss the question. ""Are you asking about Vice President Biden?"" McChrystal reportedly jokes. ""Who's +that?"" +Later in the article, McChrystal turns more serious when asked about cables sent last fall to Washington by Eikenberry.

""Here's one that covers his flank for the history +books.

William ""Fox"" Fallon, then commander of all U.S. +forces in the Middle East and Central Asia. The article eventually played a part in Fallon's resignation two years ago. +In that Esquire piece, however, Fallon appeared to directly contradict White House policy on Iran and other parts of the Middle East; the Rolling Stone article makes no such +allegation, but rather is full of jokey put-downs of important Washington players. +Comments in the article attributed to anonymous McChrystal aides are particularly harsh towards some senior members of the Obama administration, including National Security +Adviser James Jones, and other leading politicians, like Sens. John Kerry (D., Mass.) and John McCain (R., Ariz). They also make some unflattering references to +PresidentBarack Obama himself, saying the president didn't seem to know who McChrystal was when he appointed him to run the war early last year. +Only Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who is portrayed as having strongly backed McChrystal's plan for Afghanistan, is singled out for praise by the anonymous McChrystal +aides. +A spokesman for McChrystal did not immediately respond to a request for comment late Monday. +Copyright 2008 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

McChrystal says with a laugh. 'Who's that?'"" the article quotes him as saying. +""Biden?' suggests a top adviser. 'Did you say: Bite Me?"" +McChrystal tells the magazine that he felt ""betrayed"" by the US ambassador to Kabul, Karl Eikenberry, in a White House debate over war strategy last year. +Referring to a leaked internal memo from Eikenberry that questioned McChrystal's request for more troops, the commander suggested the ambassador had +tried to protect himself for history's sake. +""I like Karl, I've known him for years, but they'd never said anything like that to us before,"" McChrystal tells the magazine. +""Here's one that covers his flank for the history books. Now if we fail, they can say, ?I told you so."" +Eikenberry, himself a former commander in Afghanisan, had written to the White House saying Afghan President Hamid Karzai was an unreliable partner +and that a surge of troops could draw the United States into a open-ended quagmire. +The article revisits the friction between the White House and the military last fall as Obama debated whether to grant McChrystal's request for tens of +thousands of reinforcements. +Although Obama in the end granted most of what McChrystal asked for, the strategy review was a difficult time, the general tells the magazine. +""I found that time painful,"" McChrystal says. ""I was selling an unsellable position."" +An unnamed adviser to McChrystal alleges the general came away unimpressed after a meeting with Obama in the Oval Office a year ago, just after the +president named him to take over in Afghanistan. +""It was a 10-minute photo op,"" the general's adviser says. +""Obama clearly didn?t know anything about him, who he was.., he didn?t seem very engaged. +""The boss was pretty disappointed,"" says the adviser. +The profile, titled ""The Runaway General,"" portrays his aides as profane and intensely loyal to McChrystal, while arguing the general has seized control over +the war on the military and diplomatic fronts. +The four-star general also derides the hard-charging top US envoy to the region, Richard Holbrooke, and complains about a dinner with an unnamed French +minister during a visit to Paris. +""Oh, not another e-mail from Holbrooke,"" McChrystal says, looking at his messages on a mobile phone. ""I don't even want to open it."" +In a hotel room in Paris getting ready for a dinner with a French official, McChrystal says: ""How'd I get screwed into going to this dinner?"" +""The dinner comes with the position, sir,"" says his aide, Colonel Charlie Flynn. +""Hey, Charlie,"" McChrystal says, ""does this come with the position?"" +McChrystal gives him the middle finger. +Copyright © 2010 AFP.

Stanley McChrystal, the overall commander in Afghanistan, that will appear in Rolling Stone magazine on Friday. +In the eight-page article, released to reporters on Monday ahead of publication, McChrystal appears to belittle Vice President Joe Biden and accuses Karl Eikenberry, the U.S. +ambassador to Kabul, of undermining his war plan within the administration. +Asked by the Rolling Stone reporter about what he now feels of the war strategy advocated by Biden last fall — fewer troops, more drone attacks — the article reports that +McChrystal and his aides attempted to come up with a good one-liner to dismiss the question. ""Are you asking about Vice President Biden?"" McChrystal reportedly jokes. ""Who's +that?"" +Later in the article, McChrystal turns more serious when asked about cables sent last fall to Washington by Eikenberry. The cables called into question the major troop increase +advocated by McChrystal's team and the U.S.'s backing of Afghan President Hamid Karzai — views that the ambassador had not previously raised with McChrystal or his staff. +""I like Karl, I've known him for years, but they'd never said anything like that to us before,"" McChrystal is quoted as saying.

William ""Fox"" Fallon, then commander of all U.S. +forces in the Middle East and Central Asia. The article eventually played a part in Fallon's resignation two years ago. +In that Esquire piece, however, Fallon appeared to directly contradict White House policy on Iran and other parts of the Middle East; the Rolling Stone article makes no such +allegation, but rather is full of jokey put-downs of important Washington players. +Comments in the article attributed to anonymous McChrystal aides are particularly harsh towards some senior members of the Obama administration, including National Security +Adviser James Jones, and other leading politicians, like Sens. John Kerry (D., Mass.) and John McCain (R., Ariz). They also make some unflattering references to +PresidentBarack Obama himself, saying the president didn't seem to know who McChrystal was when he appointed him to run the war early last year. +Only Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who is portrayed as having strongly backed McChrystal's plan for Afghanistan, is singled out for praise by the anonymous McChrystal +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769911 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769911 Date: 08/31/2015 +aides. +A spokesman for McChrystal did not immediately respond to a request for comment late Monday. +Copyright 2008 Dow Jones & Company, Inc.

Stanley McChrystal as a lone wolf +on the outs with many important figures in the Obama administration and unable to convince even +some of his own soldiers that his strategy can win the war. +A band of McChrystal's profane, irreverent aides are quoted mocking Vice President Joe Biden and +Richard Holbrooke, the special U.S. representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan. +McChrystal himself is described by an aide as ""disappointed"" in his first Oval Office meeting with an +unprepared President Barack Obama. The article says that although McChrystal voted for Obama, the +two failed to connect from the start. Obama called McChrystal on the carpet last fall for speaking too +bluntly about his desire for more troops. +""I found that time painful,"" McChrystal said in the article, on newsstands Friday. ""I was selling an +unsellable position."" +Obama agreed to dispatch an additional 30,000 U.S. troops to Afghanistan only after months of study +that many in the military found frustrating. And the White House's troop commitment was coupled +with a pledge to begin bringing them home in July 2011, in what counterinsurgency strategists advising +McChrystal regarded as an arbitrary deadline. +The profile, titled ""The Runaway General"" emerged from several weeks of interviews and travel with +McChrystal's tight circle of aides this spring. +It includes a list of administration figures said to back McChrystal, including Defense Secretary Robert +Gates and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, and puts Biden at the top of a list of those who +don't. +The article claims McChrystal has seized control of the war ""by never taking his eye off the real +enemy: The wimps in the White House."" +Biden initially opposed McChrystal's proposal for additional forces last year. He favored a narrower +focus on hunting terrorists. +If Eikenberry had the same doubts, McChrystal said he never expressed them until a leaked internal +document threw a wild card into the debate over whether to add more troops last November. In the +document, Eikenberry said Afghan President Hamid Karzai was not a reliable partner for the +counterinsurgency strategy McChrystal was hired to execute. +McChrystal said he felt ""betrayed"" and accused the ambassador of giving himself cover. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769912 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769912 Date: 08/31/2015 +""Here's one that covers his flank for the history books,"" McChrystal told the magazine.

The English version follows: +If the raid of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla was a disaster for the Israel Defense Forces, its aftermath demonstrated an +equally bewildering performance by the Israeli media. The IDF Spokesman's Office churned out one misleading claim +after another, each one more implausible than the next, seeking to implant in the public's mind a version of events that +bore little relation to reality. To a degree, this was to be expected; but it was startling to see how some of Israel's most +respected reporters lined up to serve as military stenographers, barely challenging the IDF's rapidly changing versions of +events. IDF claims about the flotilla passengers' links to Al Qaida, anti-Semitic statements shouted at the Israeli Navy, and +their terrorist intentions were eagerly broadcast by the Israeli media without a second thought. When independent +reporters forced the IDF to retract or ""clarify"" all of these claims, Israeli news outlets refused to correct their errors, or +covered them up without acknowledgment. +It so happened that I arrived in Israel for a research trip the day after the flotilla raid. As a result, I was able to do +something which I always thought to be a very basic journalistic practice, so basic it's supposed to be applied routinely: +Asking an implicated party in a story to produce evidence for its claims. What I found bewildering is that at least judging +from Israeli media reports, few, if any, mainstream reporters applied this practice, and when a visiting colleague did their +job for them – nobody bothered to correct or withdraw their original report. +On June 2, the IDF disseminated a press release entitled, ""Attackers of the IDF soldiers found to be Al Qaeda +mercenaries."" The accusation was not accompanied by any conclusive evidence — the IDF reported that Mavi Marmara +passengers were equipped with night-vision goggles (gasp!). This did not stop Yedioth's Ron Ben-Yishai, who was +embedded with the Navy commandos, from amplifying the baseless charge. Citing an ""interrogation"" of Marmara +passengers — ""lynchers,"" he called them — Ben-Yishai wrote the same day, ""Some among the [flotilla passengers] are +believed to have ties with World Jihad groups, mainly Al Qaeda."" The article made no reference to any efforts on part of +Ben Yishai to investigate this claim, nor did he seem to think to ask why the IDF was about to release dangerous +operatives of Osama Bin Laden — presumably they would attack again, wouldn't they? • +On June 3, Israeli journalist Lia Tarachansky of the Real News Network and I placed calls to the IDF Spokesman's Office +to demand further evidence of the Marmara's Al Qaeda ties. We received identical responses from spokespeople from the +IDF's Israel and North America desks: ""We don't have any evidence. The press release was based on information from +the National Security Council."" Hours later, the IDF retracted its claim, changing the title of its press release to, ""Attackers +of IDF Soldiers Found Without Identification Papers."" Despite the official retraction, Ben-Yishai's article remains +uncorrected. +On June 4, the IDF released an audio clip purporting to consist of transmissions between the Mavi Marmara and a Naval +warship. ""Go back to Aushwitz!"" a Marmara passenger shouted, according to the IDF. YNet and Haaretz reported on and +reproduced the audio clip without investigating its authenticity. Forget that the voice uttering the anti-Semitic slur sounded +like a mentally disturbed teenager; had reporters performed a cursory search of the IDF Spokeman's Office website, they +would have found a longer clip released on May 31 that featured a dramatically different exchange with the Marmara with +no mention of Auschwitz. Further, the voice of flotilla organizer Huwaida Arraf was featured in the ""Aushwitz"" clip, yet Arraf +was not aboard the Marmara (she was on the Challenger One). Could the IDF have doctored audio to exploit public +hysteria surrounding the issue of anti-Semitism? +On my blog, I pointed out the discrepancies in the IDF's footage and raised the question of doctoring. The next day, the +IDF conceded that it had in fact doctored the footage, releasing a ""clarification"" and a new clip claiming to consist of the +""full"" exchange between the Navy and the flotilla. Unfortunately, the authenticity of the new clip was impossible to verify. +Despite the IDF's admission, YNet and Haaretz have not corrected their original reports, though Haaretz has at least +altered its headline.

The English version follows: +If the raid of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla was a disaster for the Israel Defense Forces, its aftermath demonstrated an +equally bewildering performance by the Israeli media. The IDF Spokesman's Office churned out one misleading claim +after another, each one more implausible than the next, seeking to implant in the public's mind a version of events that +bore little relation to reality. To a degree, this was to be expected; but it was startling to see how some of Israel's most +respected reporters lined up to serve as military stenographers, barely challenging the IDF's rapidly changing versions of +events. IDF claims about the flotilla passengers' links to Al Qaida, anti-Semitic statements shouted at the Israeli Navy, and +their terrorist intentions were eagerly broadcast by the Israeli media without a second thought. When independent +reporters forced the IDF to retract or ""clarify"" all of these claims, Israeli news outlets refused to correct their errors, or +covered them up without acknowledgment. +It so happened that I arrived in Israel for a research trip the day after the flotilla raid. As a result, I was able to do +something which I always thought to be a very basic journalistic practice, so basic it's supposed to be applied routinely: +Asking an implicated party in a story to produce evidence for its claims. What I found bewildering is that at least judging +from Israeli media reports, few, if any, mainstream reporters applied this practice, and when a visiting colleague did their +job for them – nobody bothered to correct or withdraw their original report. +On June 2, the IDF disseminated a press release entitled, ""Attackers of the IDF soldiers found to be Al Qaeda +mercenaries."" The accusation was not accompanied by any conclusive evidence — the IDF reported that Mavi Marmara +passengers were equipped with night-vision goggles (gasp!). This did not stop Yedioth's Ron Ben-Yishai, who was +embedded with the Navy commandos, from amplifying the baseless charge. Citing an ""interrogation"" of Marmara +passengers — ""lynchers,"" he called them — Ben-Yishai wrote the same day, ""Some among the [flotilla passengers] are +believed to have ties with World Jihad groups, mainly Al Qaeda."" The article made no reference to any efforts on part of +Ben Yishai to investigate this claim, nor did he seem to think to ask why the IDF was about to release dangerous +operatives of Osama Bin Laden — presumably they would attack again, wouldn't they? • +On June 3, Israeli journalist Lia Tarachansky of the Real News Network and I placed calls to the IDF Spokesman's Office +to demand further evidence of the Marmara's Al Qaeda ties. We received identical responses from spokespeople from the +IDF's Israel and North America desks: ""We don't have any evidence. The press release was based on information from +the National Security Council."" Hours later, the IDF retracted its claim, changing the title of its press release to, ""Attackers +of IDF Soldiers Found Without Identification Papers."" Despite the official retraction, Ben-Yishai's article remains +uncorrected. +On June 4, the IDF released an audio clip purporting to consist of transmissions between the Mavi Marmara and a Naval +warship. ""Go back to Aushwitz!"" a Marmara passenger shouted, according to the IDF. YNet and Haaretz reported on and +reproduced the audio clip without investigating its authenticity. Forget that the voice uttering the anti-Semitic slur sounded +like a mentally disturbed teenager; had reporters performed a cursory search of the IDF Spokeman's Office website, they +would have found a longer clip released on May 31 that featured a dramatically different exchange with the Marmara with +no mention of Auschwitz. Further, the voice of flotilla organizer Huwaida Arraf was featured in the ""Aushwitz"" clip, yet Arraf +was not aboard the Marmara (she was on the Challenger One). Could the IDF have doctored audio to exploit public +hysteria surrounding the issue of anti-Semitism? +On my blog, I pointed out the discrepancies in the IDF's footage and raised the question of doctoring. The next day, the +IDF conceded that it had in fact doctored the footage, releasing a ""clarification"" and a new clip claiming to consist of the +""full"" exchange between the Navy and the flotilla. Unfortunately, the authenticity of the new clip was impossible to verify. +Despite the IDF's admission, YNet and Haaretz have not corrected their original reports, though Haaretz has at least +altered its headline.

That Smits Model effort now has an economically sustainable +design with multiple benefits for the local forest population, the nation of Indonesia, and the planet. The +business plan has been developed by an experienced and highly reputable investment group that serves in an +Advisory role to the Prince of Wales's Trust, and the business plan has already engaged the interest of the P8, a +group of the eight largest global pension funds. +The core goals of the Arenga Reforestation Project include greenhouse gas reduction, habitat restoration, +rainforest remediation, deforestation protection, biofuel production that is non-food and carbon-positive, and +poverty alleviation for some of the most vulnerable populations on the planet. The Internal Rate of Return, on a +fairly mature business model and seven years of module testing, calculates to about 34% -- a decent investment +return for almost any industry. +You can watch Willie Smits describe the possibilities at TED (to a standing ovation) here: +http://www.ted.comitalks/willie smits_restores_a_rainforest.html +The State Department has been on the periphery of the concept development through Moira O'Neill, a Haas +Professor of Business on loan to USAlD from Cal. She has kept the conversation going with the White House, +USAID, and State, but is extremely busy with a range of other obligations and may not have the cycles to +follow this to a conclusion. +In my view this effort, the Arenga Reforestation Project, is the leading contender for an economically +sustainable tropical reforestation program, and has an unprecedented climate mitigation potential (Indonesia is +the world's #4 greenhouse-gas emitter, due largely to the burning and composting of the southern Kalimantan +peat swamps and to rapid destruction of rainforest, both of which the Smits Model can reverse). In Aug 08 I +spent 11 days visiting key sites of this project in Borneo, largely with Dr. Smits, whom I've known for about 20 +years. In my opinion, and that of many others, this is the world's most sophisticated and powerful model for +integrated ecological and economic restoration, with exciting prospects for much of the tropics. I can also vouch +for the quality and integrity of the key people involved. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769939 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769939 Date: 08/31/2015 +To make the impact even more noteworthy, the Minister of Forestry in Indonesia has now agreed to a 1:1 +acreage match between Smits Model reforestation and the protection of virgin rainforest in perpetuity as +national park. For every 30,000 hectares of Smits Model reforestation, the Ministry will designate 30,000 +hectares (about 116 square miles) of virgin rainforest a National Park, and they have agreed to external +monitoring by international NGOs for compliance. Since this Smits Model can scale to a million hectares, or ten +million, with continually increasing economic, social, and environmental benefits, the two-fer impact is perhaps +unprecedented. +It would be worthwhile for you to have someone from your staff take a look at this.

KATZ,Associated Press Writer +PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) El Haitian President Rene Preval said Wednesday he will stay in office up to three months +past the end of his term if his earthquake-ravaged nation does not hold a presidential election as scheduled. +His aide said the extension is needed to avoid chaos in case a ballot cannot be held to choose Preval's successor. The +announcement set off an outcry from opposition lawmakers, who called the move unconstitutional and compared +Preval to brutal dictators of the past. +Preval's five-year term is scheduled to end Feb. 7. But electoral officials are struggling to hold the election as scheduled +this fall as it copes with the loss of its headquarters and records, destroyed polling places and some 1.6 million displaced +or deceased voters. +The electoral council, now operating out of a gym seized in a drug raid, is also embroiled in controversy. Opposition +candidates barred from February legislative elections that were canceled after the quake have accused council members +of favoring Preval's newly formed Unity party. One council member also faces dismissal on charges of embezzlement. +In a decree dated Tuesday, the 67-year-old Preval said that if an election is not held before Nov. 28 he can remain in +office for an extra three months 13 until May 14, 2011. That date falls five years after Preval's delayed 2006 inauguration, +which was pushed back by wrangling over the vote count. +""If President Preval were to leave on Feb. 7, while the new president is not elected, we would find ourselves in an +impossible situation,"" his chief of staff, Fritz Longchamp, said. +He said Prime Minister Jean-Max Bellerive and Cabinet members who signed the decree ""want to make sure that the +country is not going to slip into chaos."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769944 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769944 Date: 08/31/2015 +Opposition lawmakers slammed the decision. Senator Youri Latortue said the move violated the constitution and +pledged to challenge it before Haiti's supreme court. +Acluche Louis-Jeune, a deputy with the Struggling People's Organization party, told Haiti's Channel 11 that Preval is +trying to stay in office to profit from the $12.7 billion-and-counting pledged in reconstruction aid. +""He's trying to make himself president for life like (ex-dictators Francois and Jean-Claude) Duvalier,"" he said. +Longchamp said Parliament's approval is needed for the extension, but lawmakers will have to act fast: On Monday all +seats in the lower chamber and a third of the seats in the Senate expire. The Feb. 28 election to replace them could not +be held because of the chaos following the Jan. 12 earthquake. +Preval also served as president from 1995 to 2000. He stepped down as scheduled when his term ended and handed +power back to the man who preceded him, the re-elected Jean-Bertrand Aristide. +Media Analysis and Watch Center +USSTRATCOM Foreign Media Analysis Program SOS International Ltd. +For additional information, please visit the SOSi USSTRATCOM FMA portal at +Once registered, you may access FMA products and manage your +for assistance. +To unsubscribe from this list, please use the following link: +subscriptions.

That Smits Model effort now has an economically sustainable design with +multiple benefits for the local forest population, the nation of Indonesia, and the planet. The business plan has been +developed by an experienced and highly reputable investment group that serves in an Advisory role to the Prince of +Wales's Trust, and the business plan has already engaged the interest of the P8, a group of the eight largest global +pension funds. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769949 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769949 Date: 08/31/2015 +The core goals of the Arenga Reforestation Project include greenhouse gas reduction, habitat restoration, rainforest +remediation, deforestation protection, biofuel production that is non-food and carbon-positive, and poverty alleviation +for some of the most vulnerable populations on the planet. The Internal Rate of Return, on a fairly mature business +model and seven years of module testing, calculates to about 34% -- a decent investment return for almost any industry. +You can watch Willie Smits describe the possibilities at TED (to a standing ovation) here: +http://www.ted.com/talks/willie_smits_restores_a_rainforest.html +The State Department has been on the periphery of the concept development through Moira O'Neill, a Haas Professor +of Business on loan to USAID from Cal. She has kept the conversation going with the White House, USAID, and State, but +is extremely busy with a range of other obligations and may not have the cycles to follow this to a conclusion. +In my view this effort, the Arenga Reforestation Project, is the leading contender for an economically sustainable +tropical reforestation program, and has an unprecedented climate mitigation potential (Indonesia is the world's #4 +greenhouse-gas emitter, due largely to the burning and composting of the southern Kalimantan peat swamps and to +rapid destruction of rainforest, both of which the Smits Model can reverse). In Aug 08 I spent 11 days visiting key sites of +this project in Borneo, largely with Dr. Smits, whom I've known for about 20 years. In my opinion, and that of many +others, this is the world's most sophisticated and powerful model for integrated ecological and economic restoration, +with exciting prospects for much of the tropics. I can also vouch for the quality and integrity of the key people involved. +To make the impact even more noteworthy, the Minister of Forestry in Indonesia has now agreed to a 1:1 acreage +match between Smits Model reforestation and the protection of virgin rainforest in perpetuity as national park. For +every 30,000 hectares of Smits Model reforestation, the Ministry will designate 30,000 hectares (about 116 square +miles) of virgin rainforest a National Park, and they have agreed to external monitoring by international NGOs for +compliance. Since this Smits Model can scale to a million hectares, or ten million, with continually increasing economic, +social, and environmental benefits, the two-fer impact is perhaps unprecedented. +It would be worthwhile for you to have someone from your staff take a look at this. In my carefully considered view, the +political, social, and REDD benefits could be very substantial, and the possibility of a Public-Private Partnership is worth +consideration. +The primary source for information on the project in the US is my friend and Senior Fellow at RMI, the remarkable Eric +Rasmussen, MD, MDM, FACP CEO of the Google-founded humanitarian NGO called InSTEDD.

Stanley McChrystal. It's a Thursday night in mid-April, +and the commander of all U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan is sitting in a four-star suite at the HOtel Westminster in +Paris. He's in France to sell his new war strategy to our NATO allies — to keep up the fiction, in essence, that we actually +have allies. Since McChrystal took over a year ago, the Afghan war has become the exclusive property of the United +States. Opposition to the war has already toppled the Dutch government, forced the resignation of Germany's president +and sparked both Canada and the Netherlands to announce the withdrawal of their 4,500 troops. McChrystal is in Paris to +keep the French, who have lost more than 40 soldiers in Afghanistan, from going all wobbly on him. +""The dinner comes with the position, sir,"" says his chief of staff, Col. Charlie Flynn. +McChrystal turns sharply in his chair. +""Hey, Charlie,"" he asks, ""does this come with the position?"" +McChrystal gives him the middle finger. +The general stands and looks around the suite that his traveling staff of 10 has converted into a full-scale operations +center. The tables are crowded with silver Panasonic Toughbooks, and blue cables crisscross the hotel's thick carpet, +hooked up to satellite dishes to provide encrypted phone and e-mail communications. Dressed in off-the-rack civilian +casual — blue tie, button-down shirt, dress slacks — McChrystal is way out of his comfort zone. Paris, as one of his +advisers says, is the ""most anti-McChrystal city you can imagine."" The general hates fancy restaurants, rejecting any +place with candles on the tables as too ""Gucci."" He prefers Bud Light Lime (his favorite beer) to Bordeaux, Talladega +Nights (his favorite movie) to Jean-Luc Godard. Besides, the public eye has never been a place where McChrystal felt +comfortable: Before President Obama put him in charge of the war in Afghanistan, he spent five years running the +Pentagon's most secretive black ops. +""What's the update on the Kandahar bombing?"" McChrystal asks Flynn. The city has been rocked by two massive car +bombs in the past day alone, calling into question the general's assurances that he can wrest it from the Taliban. +""We have two KIAs, but that hasn't been confirmed,"" Flynn says. +McChrystal takes a final look around the suite. At 55, he is gaunt and lean, not unlike an older version of Christian Bale in +Rescue Dawn. His slate-blue eyes have the unsettling ability to drill down when they lock on you. If you've fucked up or +disappointed him, they can destroy your soul without the need for him to raise his voice. +""I'd rather have my ass kicked by a roomful of people than go out to this dinner,"" McChrystal says. +He pauses a beat. +""Unfortunately,"" he adds, ""no one in this room could do it."" +With that, he's out the door. +""Who's he going to dinner with?"" I ask one of his aides. +""Some French minister,"" the aide tells me. ""It's fucking gay."" +The next morning, McChrystal and his team gather to prepare for a speech he is giving at the Ecole Militaire, a French +military academy. The general prides himself on being sharper and ballsier than anyone else, but his brashness comes +with a price: Although McChrystal has been in charge of the war for only a year, in that short time he has managed to piss +off almost everyone with a stake in the conflict. Last fall, during the question-and-answer session following a speech he +gave in London, McChrystal dismissed the counterterrorism strategy being advocated by Vice President Joe Biden as +""shortsighted,"" saying it would lead to a state of ""Chaos-istan."" The remarks earned him a smackdown from the president +himself, who summoned the general to a terse private meeting aboard Air Force One. The message to McChrystal +seemed clear: Shut the fuck up, and keep a lower profile +Now, flipping through printout cards of his speech in Paris, McChrystal wonders aloud what Biden question he might get +today, and how he should respond. ""I never know what's going to pop out until I'm up there, that's the problem,"" he says. +Then, unable to help themselves, he and his staff imagine the general dismissing the vice president with a good one- +liner. +""Are you asking about Vice President Biden?"" McChrystal says with a laugh. ""Who's that?"" +""Biden?"" suggests a top adviser. ""Did you say: Bite Me?"" +When Barack Obama entered the Oval Office, he immediately set out to deliver on his most important campaign +promise on foreign policy: to refocus the war in Afghanistan on what led us to invade in the first place. ""I want the +American people to understand,"" he announced in March 2009. ""We have a clear and focused goal: to disrupt, dismantle +and defeat Al Qaeda in Pakistan and Afghanistan."" He ordered another 21,000 troops to Kabul, the largest increase since +the war began in 2001. Taking the advice of both the Pentagon and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, he also fired Gen. David +McKiernan — then the U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan — and replaced him with a man he didn't know and had +met only briefly: Gen. Stanley McChrystal. It was the first time a top general had been relieved from duty during wartime in +more than 50 years, since Harry Truman fired Gen. Douglas MacArthur at the height of the Korean War. +Even though he had voted for Obama, McChrystal and his new commander in chief failed from the outset to connect. The +general first encountered Obama a week after he took office, when the president met with a dozen senior military officials +in a room at the Pentagon known as the Tank. According to sources familiar with the meeting, McChrystal thought Obama +looked ""uncomfortable and intimidated"" by the roomful of military brass. Their first one-on-one meeting took place in the +Oval Office four months later, after McChrystal got the Afghanistan job, and it didn't go much better. ""It was a 10-minute +photo op,"" says an adviser to McChrystal. ""Obama clearly didn't know anything about him, who he was. Here's the guy +who's going to run his fucking war, but he didn't seem very engaged. The Boss was pretty disappointed."" +From the start, McChrystal was determined to place his personal stamp on Afghanistan, to use it as a laboratory for a +controversial military strategy known as counterinsurgency. COIN, as the theory is known, is the new gospel of the +Pentagon brass, a doctrine that attempts to square the military's preference for high-tech violence with the demands of +fighting protracted wars in failed states. COIN calls for sending huge numbers of ground troops to not only destroy the +enemy, but to live among the civilian population and slowly rebuild, or build from scratch, another nation's government — a +process that even its staunchest advocates admit requires years, if not decades, to achieve. The theory essentially +rebrands the military, expanding its authority (and its funding) to encompass the diplomatic and political sides of warfare: +Think the Green Berets as an armed Peace Corps. In 2006, after Gen. David Petraeus beta-tested the theory during his +""surge"" in Iraq, it quickly gained a hardcore following of think-tankers, journalists, military officers and civilian officials. +Nicknamed ""COINdinistas"" for their cultish zeal, this influential cadre believed the doctrine would be the perfect solution +for Afghanistan. All they needed was a general with enough charisma and political savvy to implement it. +As McChrystal leaned on Obama to ramp up the war, he did it with the same fearlessness he used to track down terrorists +in Iraq: Figure out how your enemy operates, be faster and more ruthless than everybody else, then take the fuckers out. +After arriving in Afghanistan last June, the general conducted his own policy review, ordered up by Defense Secretary +Robert Gates. The now-infamous report was leaked to the press, and its conclusion was dire: If we didn't send another +40,000 troops — swelling the number of U.S. forces in Afghanistan by nearly half — we were in danger of ""mission failure."" +The White House was furious. McChrystal, they felt, was trying to bully Obama, opening him up to charges of being weak +on national security unless he did what the general wanted. It was Obama versus the Pentagon, and the Pentagon was +determined to kick the president's ass. +Last fall, with his top general calling for more troops, Obama launched a three-month review to re-evaluate the strategy in +Afghanistan. ""I found that time painful,"" McChrystal tells me in one of several lengthy interviews. ""I was selling an +unsellable position."" For the general, it was a crash course in Beltway politics — a battle that pitted him against +experienced Washington insiders like Vice President Biden, who argued that a prolonged counterinsurgency campaign in +Afghanistan would plunge America into a military quagmire without weakening international terrorist networks. ""The entire +COIN strategy is a fraud perpetuated on the American people,"" says Douglas Macgregor, a retired colonel and leading +critic of counterinsurgency who attended West Point with McChrystal. ""The idea that we are going to spend a trillion +dollars to reshape the culture of the Islamic world is utter nonsense. +In the end, however, McChrystal got almost exactly what he wanted. On December 1st, in a speech at West Point, the +president laid out all the reasons why fighting the war in Afghanistan is a bad idea: It's expensive; we're in an economic +crisis; a decade-long commitment would sap American power; Al Qaeda has shifted its base of operations to Pakistan. +Then, without ever using the words ""victory"" or ""win,"" Obama announced that he would send an additional 30,000 troops +to Afghanistan, almost as many as McChrystal had requested. The president had thrown his weight, however hesitantly, +behind the counterinsurgency crowd. +Today, as McChrystal gears up for an offensive in southern Afghanistan, the prospects for any kind of success look bleak. +In June, the death toll for U.S. troops passed 1,000, and the number of IEDs has doubled. Spending hundreds of billions +of dollars on the fifth-poorest country on earth has failed to win over the civilian population, whose attitude toward U.S. +troops ranges from intensely wary to openly hostile. Thetiggest military operation of the year — a ferocious offensive that +began in February to retake the southern town of Marja — continues to drag on, prompting McChrystal himself to refer to it +as a ""bleeding ulcer."" In June, Afghanistan officially outpaced Vietnam as the longest war in American history — and +Obama has quietly begun to back away from the deadline he set for withdrawing U.S. troops in July of next year. The +president finds himself stuck in something even more insane than a quagmire: a quagmire he knowingly walked into, even +though it's precisely the kind of gigantic, mind-numbing, multigenerational nation-building project he explicitly said he +didn't want. +Even those who support McChrystal and his strategy of counterinsurgency know that whatever the general manages to +accomplish in Afghanistan, it's going to look more like Vietnam than Desert Storm. ""It's not going to look like a win, smell +like a win or taste like a win,"" says Maj. Gen. Bill Mayville, who serves as chief of operations for McChrystal. ""This is going +to end in an argument."" +The night after his speech in Paris, McChrystal and his staff head to Kitty O'Shea's, an Irish pub catering to tourists, +around the corner from the hotel. His wife, Annie, has joined him for a rare visit: Since the Iraq War began in 2003, she +has seen her husband less than 30 days a year. Though it is his and Annie's 33rd wedding anniversary, McChrystal has +invited his inner circle along for dinner and drinks at the ""least Gucci"" place his staff could find. His wife isn't surprised. +""He once took me to a Jack in the Box when I was dressed in formalwear,"" she says with a laugh. +The general's staff is a handpicked collection of killers, spies, geniuses, patriots, political operators and outright maniacs. +There's a former head of British Special Forces, two Navy Seals, an Afghan Special Forces commando, a lawyer, two +fighter pilots and at least two dozen combat veterans and counterinsurgency experts. They jokingly refer to themselves as +Team America, taking the name from the South Park-esque sendup of military cluelessness, and they pride themselves +on their can-do attitude and their disdain for authority. After arriving in Kabul last summer, Team America set about +changing the culture of the International Security Assistance Force, as the NATO-led mission is known. (U.S. soldiers had +taken to deriding ISAF as short for ""I Suck at Fighting"" or ""In Sandals and Flip-Flops."") McChrystal banned alcohol on +base, kicked out Burger King and other symbols of American excess, expanded the morning briefing to include thousands +of officers and refashioned the command center into a Situational Awareness Room, a free-flowing information hub +modeled after Mayor Mike Bloomberg's offices in New York. He also set a manic pace for his staff, becoming legendary +for sleeping four hours a night, running seven miles each morning, and eating one meal a day. (In the month I spend +around the general, I witness him eating only once.) It's a kind of superhuman narrative that has built up around him, a +staple in almost every media profile, as if the ability to go without sleep and food translates into the possibility of a man +single-handedly winning the war. +By midnight at Kitty O'Shea's, much of Team America is completely shitfaced. Two officers do an Irish jig mixed with steps +from a traditional Afghan wedding dance, while McChrystal's top advisers lock arms and sing a slurred song of their own +invention.""Afghanistan!"" they bellow.""Afghanistan!"" They call it their Afghanistan song. +McChrystal steps away from the circle, observing his team. ""All these men,"" he tells me. ""I'd die for them. And they'd die +for me."" +The assembled men may look and sound like a bunch of combat veterans letting off steam, but in fact this tight-knit group +represents the most powerful force shaping U.S. policy in Afghanistan. While McChrystal and his men are in indisputable +command of all military aspects of the war, there is no equivalent position on the diplomatic or political side. Instead, an +assortment of administration players compete over the Afghan portfolio: U.S. Ambassador Karl Eikenberry, Special +Representative to Afghanistan Richard Holbrooke, National Security Advisor Jim Jones and Secretary of State Hillary +Clinton, not to mention 40 or so other coalition ambassadors and a host of talking heads who try to insert themselves into +the mess, from John Kerry to John McCain. This diplomatic incoherence has effectively allowed McChrystal's team to call +the shots and hampered efforts to build a stable and credible government in Afghanistan. ""It jeopardizes the mission,"" +says Stephen Biddle, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations who supports McChrystal. ""The military cannot +by itself create governance reform."" +Part of the problem is structural: The Defense Department budget exceeds $600 billion a year, while the State +Department receives only $50 billion. But part of the problem is personal: In private, Team McChrystal likes to talk shit +about many of Obama's top people on the diplomatic side. One aide calls Jim Jones, a retired four-star general and +veteran of the Cold War, a ""clown"" who remains ""stuck in 1985."" Politicians like McCain and Kerry, says another aide, +""turn up, have a meeting with Karzai, criticize him at the airport press conference, then get back for the Sunday talk +shows. Frankly, it's not very helpful."" Only Hillary Clinton receives good reviews from McChrystal's inner circle. ""Hillary +had Stan's back during the strategic review,"" says an adviser. ""She said, 'If Stan wants it, give him what he needs.'"" +McChrystal reserves special skepticism for Holbrooke, the official in charge of reintegrating the Taliban. ""The Boss says +he's like a wounded animal,"" says a member of the general's team. ""Holbrooke keeps hearing rumors that he's going to +get fired, so that makes him dangerous. He's a brilliant guy, but he just comes in, pulls on a lever, whatever he can grasp +onto. But this is COIN, and you can't just have someone yanking on shit."" +At one point on his trip to Paris, McChrystal checks his BlackBerry. ""Oh, not another e-mail from Holbrooke,"" he groans. ""I +don't even want to open it."" He clicks on the message and reads the salutation out loud, then stuffs the BladkBerry back in +his pocket, not bothering to conceal his annoyance. +""Make sure you don't get any of that on your leg,"" an aide jokes, referring to the e-mail. +By far the most crucial — and strained — relationship is between McChrystal and Eikenberry, the U.S. ambassador. +According to those close to the two men, Eikenberry — a retired three-star general who served in Afghanistan in 2002 and +2005 — can't stand that his former subordinate is now calling the shots. He's also furious that McChrystal, backed by +NATO's allies, refused to put Eikenberry in the pivotal role of viceroy in Afghanistan, which would have made him the +diplomatic equivalent of the general. The job instead went to British Ambassador Mark Sedwill — a move that effectively +increased McChrystal's influence over diplomacy by shutting out a powerful rival. ""In reality, that position needs to be filled +by an American for it to have weight,"" says a U.S. official familiar with the negotiations. +The relationship was further strained in January, when a classified cable that Eikenberry wrote was leaked to The New +York Times. The cable was as scathing as it was prescient. The ambassador offered a brutal critique of McChrystal's +strategy, dismissed President Hamid Karzai as ""not an adequate strategic partner,"" and cast doubt on whether the +counterinsurgency plan would be ""sufficient"" to deal with Al Qaeda. ""We will become more deeply engaged here with no +way to extricate ourselves,"" Eikenberry warned, ""short of allowing the country to descend again into lawlessness and +chaos."" +McChrystal and his team were blindsided by the cable. ""I like Karl, I've known him for years, but they'd never said +anything like that to us before,"" says McChrystal, who adds that he felt ""betrayed"" by the leak. ""Here's one that covers his +flank for the history books. Now if we fail, they can say, 'I told you so.'"" +The most striking example of McChrystal's usurpation of diplomatic policy is his handling of Karzai. It is McChrystal, not +diplomats like Eikenberry or Holbrooke, who enjoys the best relationship with the man America is relying on to lead +Afghanistan. The doctrine of counterinsurgency requires a credible government, and since Karzai is not considered +credible by his own people, McChrystal has worked hard to make him so. Over the past few months, he has accompanied +the president on more than 10 trips around the country, standing beside him at political meetings, or shuras, in Kandahar. +In February, the day before the doomed offensive in Marja, McChrystal even drove over to the president's palace to get +him to sign off on what would be the largest military operation of the year. Karzai's staff, however, insisted that the +president was sleeping off a cold and could not be disturbed. After several hours of haggling, McChrystal finally enlisted +the aid of Afghanistan's defense minister, who persuaded Karzai's people to wake the president from his nap. +This is one of the central flaws with McChrystal's counterinsurgency strategy: The need to build a credible government +puts us at the mercy of whatever tin-pot leader we've backed — a danger that Eikenberry explicitly warned about in his +cable. Even Team McChrystal privately acknowledges that Karzai is a less-than-ideal partner. ""He's been locked up in his +palace the past year,"" laments one of the general's top advisers. At times, Karzai himself has actively undermined +McChrystal's desire to put him in charge. During a recent visit to Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Karzai met three U.S. +soldiers who had been wounded in Uruzgan province. ""General,"" he called out to McChrystal, ""I didn't even know we were +fighting in Uruzgan!"" +Growing up as a military brat, McChrystal exhibited the mixture of brilliance and cockiness that would follow him +throughout his career. His father fought in Korea and Vietnam, retiring as a two-star general, and his four brothers all +joined the armed services. Moving around to different bases, McChrystal took solace in baseball, a sport in which he +made no pretense of hiding his superiority: In Little League, he would call out strikes to the crowd before whipping a +fastball down the middle. +McChrystal entered West Point in 1972, when the U.S. military was close to its all-time low in popularity. His class was the +last to graduate before the academy started to admit women. The ""Prison on the Hudson,"" as it was known then, was a +potent mix of testosterone, hooliganism and reactionary patriotism. Cadets repeatedly trashed the mess hall in food fights, +and birthdays were celebrated with a tradition called ""rat fucking,"" which often left the birthday boy outside in the snow or +mud, covered in shaving cream. ""It was pretty out of control,"" says Lt. Gen. David Barno, a classmate who went on to +serve as the top commander in Afghanistan from 2003 to 2005. The class, filled with what Barno calls ""huge talent"" and +""wild-eyed teenagers with a strong sense of idealism,"" also produced Gen. Ray Odierno, the current commander of U.S. +forces in Iraq. +The son of a general, McChrystal was also a ringleader of the campus dissidents — a dual role that taught him how to +thrive in a rigid, top-down environment while thumbing his nose at authority every chance he got. He accumulated more +than 100 hours of demerits for drinking, partying and insubordination — a record that his classmates boasted made him a +""century man."" One classmate, who asked not to be named, recalls finding McChrystal passed out in the shower after +downing a case of beer he had hidden under the sink. The troublemaking almost got him kicked out, and he spent hours +subjected to forced marches in the Area, a paved courtyard where unruly cadets were disciplined. ""I'd come visit, and I'd +end up spending most of my time in the library, while Stan was in the Area,"" recalls Annie, who began dating McChrystal +in 1973. +McChrystal wound up ranking 298 out of a class of 855, a serious underachievement for a man widely regarded as +brilliant. His most compelling work was extracurricular: As managing editor of The Pointer, the West Point literary +magazine, McChrystal wrote seven short stories that eerily foreshadow many of the issues he would confront in his +career. In one tale, a fictional officer complains about the difficulty of training foreign troops to fight; in another, a 19-year- +old soldier kills a boy he mistakes for a terrorist. In ""Brinkman's Note,"" a piece of suspense fiction, the unnamed narrator +appears to be trying to stop a plot to assassinate the president. It turns out, however, that the narrator himself is the +assassin, and he's able to infiltrate the White House: ""The President strode in smiling. From the right coat pocket of the +raincoat I carried, I slowly drew forth my 32-caliber pistol. In Brinkman's failure, I had succeeded."" +After graduation, 2nd Lt. Stanley McChrystal entered an Army that was all but broken in the wake of Vietnam. ""We really +felt we were a peacetime generation,"" he recalls. ""There was the Gulf War, but even that didn't feel like that big of a deal."" +So McChrystal spent his career where the action was: He enrolled in Special Forces school and became a regimental +commander of the 3rd Ranger Battalion in 1986. It was a dangerous position, even in peacetime — nearly two dozen +Rangers were killed in training accidents during the Eighties. It was also an unorthodox career path: Most soldiers who +want to climb the ranks to general don't go into the Rangers. Displaying a penchant for transforming systems he considers +outdated, McChrystal set out to revolutionize the training regime for the Rangers. He introduced mixed martial arts, +required every soldier to qualify with night-vision goggles on the rifle range and forced troops to build up their endurance +with weekly marches involving heavy backpacks. +In the late 1990s, McChrystal shrewdly improved his inside game, spending a year at Harvard's Kennedy School of +Government and then at the Council on Foreign Relations, where he co-authored a treatise on the merits and drawbacks +of humanitarian interventionism. But as he moved up through the ranks, McChrystal relied on the skills he had learned as +a troublemaking kid at West Point: knowing precisely how far he could go in a rigid military hierarchy without getting +tossed out. Being a highly intelligent badass, he discovered, could take you far — especially in the political chaos that +followed September 11th. ""He was very focused,"" says Annie. ""Even as a young officer he seemed to know what he +wanted to do. I don't think his personality has changed in all these years."" +By some accounts, McChrystal's career should have been over at least two times by now. As Pentagon spokesman +during the invasion of Iraq, the general seemed more like a White House mouthpiece than an up-and-coming commander +with a reputation for speaking his mind. When Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld made his infamous ""stuff happens"" +remark during the looting of Baghdad, McChrystal backed him up. A few days later, he echoed the president's Mission +Accomplished gaffe by insisting that major combat operations in Iraq were over. But it was during his next stint — +overseeing the military's most elite units, including the Rangers, Navy Seals and Delta Force — that McChrystal took part +in a cover-up that would have destroyed the career of a lesser man. +After Cpl. Pat Tillman, the former-NFL-star-turned-Ranger, was accidentally killed by his own troops in Afghanistan in April +2004, McChrystal took an active role in creating the impression that Tillman had died at the hands of Taliban fighters. He +signed off on a falsified recommendation for a Silver Star that suggested Tillman had been killed by enemy fire. +(McChrystal would later claim he didn't read the recommendation closely enough — a strange excuse for a commander +known for his laserlike attention to minute details.) A week later, McChrystal sent a memo up the chain of command, +specifically warning that President Bush should avoid mentioning the cause of Tillman's death. ""If the circumstances of +Corporal Tillman's death become public,"" he wrote, it could cause ""public embarrassment"" for the president. +""The false narrative, which McChrystal clearly helped construct, diminished Pat's true actions,"" wrote Tillman's mother, +Mary, in her book Boots on the Ground by Dusk. McChrystal got away with it, she added, because he was the ""golden +boy"" of Rumsfeld and Bush, who loved his willingness to get things done, even if it included bending the rules or skipping +the chain of command. Nine days after Tillman's death, McChrystal was promoted to major general. +Two years later, in 2006, McChrystal was tainted by a scandal involving detainee abuse and torture at Camp Nama in +Iraq. According to a report by Human Rights Watch, prisoners at the camp were subjected to a now-familiar litany of +abuse: stress positions, being dragged naked through the mud. McChrystal was not disciplined in the scandal, even +though an interrogator at the camp reported seeing him inspect the prison multiple times. But the experience was so +unsettling to McChrystal that he tried to prevent detainee operations from being placed under his command in +Afghanistan, viewing them as a ""political swamp,"" according to a U.S. official. In May 2009, as McChrystal prepared for +his confirmation hearings, his staff prepared him for hard questions about Camp Nama and the Tillman cover-up. But the +scandals barely made a ripple in Congress, and McChrystal was soon on his way back to Kabul to run the war in +Afghanistan. +The media, to a large extent, have also given McChrystal a pass on both controversies. Where Gen. Petraeus is kind of a +dweeb, a teacher's pet with a Ranger's tab, McChrystal is a snake-eating rebel, a ""Jedi"" commander, as Newsweek called +him. He didn't care when his teenage son came home with blue hair and a mohawk. He speaks his mind with a candor +rare for a high-ranking official. He asks for opinions, and seems genuinely interested in the response. He gets briefings on +his iPod and listens to books on tape. He carries a custom-made set of nunchucks in his convoy engraved with his name +and four stars, and his itinerary often bears a fresh quote from Bruce Lee. (""There are no limits. There are only plateaus, +and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them."") He went out on dozens of nighttime raids during his time in Iraq, +unprecedented for a top commander, and turned up on missions unannounced, with almost no entourage. ""The fucking +lads love Stan McChrystal,"" says a British officer who serves in Kabul. ""You'd be out in Somewhere, Iraq, and someone +would take a knee beside you, and a corporal would be like 'Who the fuck is that?' And it's fucking Stan McChrystal."" +It doesn't hurt that McChrystal was also extremely successful as head of the Joint Special Operations Command, the elite +forces that carry out the government's darkest ops. During the Iraq surge, his team killed and captured thousands of +insurgents, including Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq. ""JSOC was a killing machine,"" says Maj. Gen. +Mayville, his chief of operations. McChrystal was also open to new ways of killing. He systematically mapped out terrorist +networks, targeting specific insurgents and hunting them down — often with the help of cyberfreaks traditionally shunned +by the military. ""The Boss would find the 24-year-old kid with a nose ring, with some fucking brilliant degree from MIT, +sitting in the corner with 16 computer monitors humming,"" says a Special Forces commando who worked with McChrystal +in Iraq and now serves on his staff in Kabul. ""He'd say, 'Hey — you fucking muscleheads couldn't find lunch without help. +You got to work together with these guys.'"" +Even in his new role as America's leading evangelist for counterinsurgency, McChrystal retains the deep-seated instincts +of a terrorist hunter. To put pressure on the Taliban, he has upped the number of Special Forces units in Afghanistan from +four to 19. ""You better be out there hitting four or five targets tonight,"" McChrystal will tell a Navy Seal he sees in the +hallway at headquarters. Then he'll add, ""I'm going to have to scold you in the morning for it, though."" In fact, the general +frequently finds himself apologizing for the disastrous consequences of counterinsurgency. In the first four months of this +year, NATO forces killed some 90 civilians, up 76 percent from the same period in 2009 — a record that has created +tremendous resentment among the very population that COIN theory is intent on winning over. In February, a Special +Forces night raid ended in the deaths of two pregnant Afghan women and allegations of a cover-up, and in April, protests +erupted in Kandahar after U.S. forces accidentally shot up a bus, killing five Afghans. ""We've shot an amazing number of +people,"" McChrystal recently conceded. +Despite the tragedies and miscues, McChrystal has issued some of the strictest directives to avoid civilian casualties that +the U.S. military has ever encountered in a war zone. It's ""insurgent math,"" as he calls it — for every innocent person you +kill, you create 10 new enemies. He has ordered convoys to curtail their reckless driving, put restrictions on the use of air +power and severely limited night raids. He regularly apologizes to Hamid Karzai when civilians are killed, and berates +commanders responsible for civilian deaths. ""For a while,"" says one U.S. official, ""the most dangerous place to be in +Afghanistan was in front of McChrystal after a 'civ cas' incident."" The ISAF command has even discussed ways to make +not killing into something you can win an award for: There's talk of creating a new medal for ""courageous restraint,"" a +buzzword that's unlikely to gain much traction in the gung-ho culture of the U.S. military. +But however strategic they may be, McChrystal's new marching orders have caused an intense backlash among his own +troops. Being told to hold their fire, soldiers complain, puts them in greater danger. ""Bottom line?"" says a former Special +Forces operator who has spent years in Iraq and Afghanistan. ""I would love to kick McChrystal in the nuts. His rules of +engagement put soldiers' lives in even greater danger. Every real soldier will tell you the same thing."" +In March, McChrystal traveled to Combat Outpost JFM — a small encampment on the outskirts of Kandahar — to confront +such accusations from the troops directly. It was a typically bold move by the general. Only two days earlier, he had +received an e-mail from Israel Arroyo, a 25-year-old staff sergeant who asked McChrystal to go on a mission with his unit. +""I am writing because it was said you don't care about the troops and have made it harder to defend ourselves,"" Arroyo +wrote. +Within hours, McChrystal responded personally: ""I'm saddened by the accusation that I don't care about soldiers, as it is +something I suspect any soldier takes both personally and professionally — at least I do. But I know perceptions depend +upon your perspective at the time, and I respect that every soldier's view is his own."" Then he showed up at Arroyo's +outpost and went on a foot patrol with the troops — not some bullshit photo-op stroll through a market, but a real live +operation in a dangerous war zone. +Six weeks later, just before McChrystal returned from Paris, the general received another e-mail from Arroyo. A 23-year- +old corporal named Michael Ingram — one of the soldiers McChrystal had gone on patrol with — had been killed by an IED +a day earlier. It was the third man the 25-member platoon had lost in a year, and Arroyo was writing to see if the general +would attend Ingram's memorial service. ""He started to look up to you,"" Arroyo wrote. McChrystal said he would try to +make it down to pay his respects as soon as possible. +The night before the general is scheduled to visit Sgt. Arroyo's platoon for the memorial, I arrive at Combat Outpost JFM +to speak with the soldiers he had gone on patrol with. JFM is a small encampment, ringed by high blast walls and guard +towers. Almost all of the soldiers here have been on repeated combat tours in both Iraq and Afghanistan, and have seen +some of the worst fighting of both wars. But they are especially angered by Ingram's death. His commanders had +repeatedly requested permission to tear down the house where Ingram was killed, noting that it was often used as a +combat position by the Taliban. But due to McChrystal's new restrictions to avoid upsetting civilians, the request had been +denied. ""These were abandoned houses,"" fumes Staff Sgt. Kennith Hicks. ""Nobody was coming back to live in them."" +One soldier shows me the list of new regulations the platoon was given. ""Patrol only in areas that you are reasonably +certain that you will not have to defend yourselves with lethal force,"" the laminated card reads. For a soldier who has +traveled halfway around the world to fight, that's like telling a cop he should only patrol in areas where he knows he won't +have to make arrests. ""Does that make any fucking sense?"" asks Pfc. Jared Pautsch. ""We should just drop a fucking +bomb on this place. You sit and ask yourself: What are we doing here?"" +The rules handed out here are not what McChrystal intended — they've been distorted as they passed through the chain of +command — but knowing that does nothing to lessen the anger of troops on the ground. ""Fuck, when I came over here and +heard that McChrystal was in charge, I thought we would get our fucking gun on,"" says Hicks, who has served three tours +of combat. ""I get COIN. I get all that. McChrystal comes here, explains it, it makes sense. But then he goes away on his +bird, and by the time his directives get passed down to us through Big Army, they're all fucked up — either because +somebody is trying to cover their ass, or because they just don't understand it themselves. But we're fucking losing this +thing."" +McChrystal and his team show up the next day. Underneath a tent, the general has a 45-minute discussion with some two +dozen soldiers. The atmosphere is tense. ""I ask you what's going on in your world, and I think it's important for you all to +understand the big picture as well,"" McChrystal begins. ""How's the company doing? You guys feeling sorry for +yourselves? Anybody? Anybody feel like you're losing?"" McChrystal says. +""Sir, some of the guys here, sir, think we're losing, sir,"" says Hicks. +McChrystal nods. ""Strength is leading when you just don't want to lead,"" he tells the men. ""You're leading by example. +That's what we do. Particularly when it's really, really hard, and it hurts inside."" Then he spends 20 minutes talking about +counterinsurgency, diagramming his concepts and principles on a whiteboard. He makes COIN seem like common sense, +but he's careful not to bullshit the men. ""We are knee-deep in the decisive year,"" he tells them. The Taliban, he insists, no +longer has the initiative — ""but I don't think we do, either."" It's similar to the talk he gave in Paris, but it's not winning any +hearts and minds among the soldiers. ""This is the philosophical part that works with think tanks,"" McChrystal tries to joke. +""But it doesn't get the same reception from infantry companies."" +During the question-and-answer period, the frustration boils over. The soldiers complain about not being allowed to use +lethal force, about watching insurgents they detain be freed for lack of evidence. They want to be able to fight — like they +did in Iraq, like they had in Afghanistan before McChrystal. 'We aren't putting fear into the Taliban,"" one soldier says. +""Winning hearts and minds in COIN is a coldblooded thing,"" McChrystal says, citing an oft-repeated maxim that you can't +kill your way out of Afghanistan. ""The Russians killed 1 million Afghans, and that didn't work."" +""I'm not saying go out and kill everybody, sir,"" the soldier persists. ""You say we've stopped the momentum of the +insurgency. I don't believe that's true in this area. The more we pull back, the more we restrain ourselves, the stronger it's +getting."" +""I agree with you,"" McChrystal says. ""In this area, we've not made progress, probably. You have to show strength here, +you have to use fire. What I'm telling you is, fire costs you. What do you want to do? You want to wipe the population out +here and resettle it?"" +A soldier complains that under the rules, any insurgent who doesn't have a weapon is immediately assumed to be a +civilian. ""That's the way this game is,"" McChrystal says. ""It's complex. I can't just decide: It's shirts and skins, and we'll kill +all the shirts."" +As the discussion ends, McChrystal seems to sense that he hasn't succeeded at easing the men's anger. He makes one +last-ditch effort to reach them, acknowledging the death of Cpl. Ingram. ""There's no way I can make that easier,"" he tells +them. ""No way I can pretend it won't hurt. No way I can tell you not to feel that. . . . I will tell you, you're doing a great job. +Don't let the frustration get to you."" The session ends with no clapping, and no real resolution. McChrystal may have sold +President Obama on counterinsurgency, but many of his own men aren't buying it. +When it comes to Afghanistan, history is not on McChrystal's side. The only foreign invader to have any success here +was Genghis Khan — and he wasn't hampered by things like human rights, economic development and press scrutiny. +The COIN doctrine, bizarrely, draws inspiration from some of the biggest Western military embarrassments in recent +memory: France's nasty war in Algeria (lost in 1962) and the American misadventure in Vietnam (lost in 1975). +McChrystal, like other advocates of COIN, readily acknowledges that counterinsurgency campaigns are inherently messy, +expensive and easy to lose. ""Even Afghans are confused by Afghanistan,"" he says. But even if he somehow manages to +succeed, after years of bloody fighting with Afghan kids who pose no threat to the U.S. homeland, the war will do little to +shut down Al Qaeda, which has shifted its operations to Pakistan. Dispatching 150,000 troops to build new schools, +roads, mosques and water-treatment facilities around Kandahar is like trying to stop the drug war in Mexico by occupying +Arkansas and building Baptist churches in Little Rock. ""It's all very cynical, politically,"" says Marc Sageman, a former CIA +case officer who has extensive experience in the region. ""Afghanistan is not in our vital interest — there's nothing for us +there."" +In mid-May, two weeks after visiting the troops in Kandahar, McChrystal travels to the White House for a high-level visit by +Hamid Karzai. It is a triumphant moment for the general, one that demonstrates he is very much in command — both in +Kabul and in Washington. In the East Room, which is packed with journalists and dignitaries, President Obama sings the +praises of Karzai. The two leaders talk about how great their relationship is, about the pain they feel over civilian +casualties. They mention the word ""progress"" 16 times in under an hour. But there is no mention of victory. Still, the • +session represents the most forceful commitment that Obama has made to McChrystal's strategy in months. ""There is no +denying the progress that the Afghan people have made in recent years — in education, in health care and economic +development,"" the president says. ""As I saw in the lights across Kabul when I landed — lights that would not have been +visible just a few years earlier."" +It is a disconcerting observation for Obama to make. During the worst years in Iraq, when the Bush administration had no +real progress to point to, officials used to offer up the exact same evidence of success. ""It was one of our first +impressions,"" one GOP official said in 2006, after landing in Baghdad at the height of the sectarian violence. ""So many +lights shining brightly."" So it is to the language of the Iraq War that the Obama administration has turned — talk of +progress, of city lights, of metrics like health care and education. Rhetoric that just a few years ago they would have +mocked. ""They are trying to manipulate perceptions because there is no definition of victory — because victory is not even +defined or recognizable,"" says Celeste Ward, a senior defense analyst at the RAND Corporation who served as a political +adviser to U.S. commanders in Iraq in 2006. ""That's the game we're in right now. What we need, for strategic purposes, is +to create the perception that we didn't get run off. The facts on the ground are not great, and are not going to become +great in the near future."" +But facts on the ground, as history has proven, offer little deterrent to a military determined to stay the course. Even those +closest to McChrystal know that the rising anti-war sentiment at home doesn't begin to reflect how deeply fucked up things +are in Afghanistan. ""If Americans pulled back and started paying attention to this war, it would become even less popular,"" +a senior adviser to McChrystal says. Such realism, however, doesn't prevent advocates of counterinsurgency from +dreaming big: Instead of beginning to withdraw troops next year, as Obama promised, the military hopes to ramp up its +counterinsurgency campaign even further. ""There's a possibility we could ask for another surge of U.S. forces next +summer if we see success here,"" a senior military official in Kabul tells me. +Back in Afghanistan, less than a month after the White House meeting with Karzai and all the talk of ""progress,"" +McChrystal is hit by the biggest blow to his vision of counterinsurgency. Since last year, the Pentagon had been planning +to launch a major military operation this summer in Kandahar, the country's second-largest city and the Taliban's original +home base. It was supposed to be a decisive turning point in the war — the primary reason for the troop surge that +McChrystal wrested from Obama late last year. But on June 10th, acknowledging that the military still needs to lay more +groundwork, the general announced that he is postponing the offensive until the fall. Rather than one big battle, like +Fallujah or Ramadi, U.S. troops will implement what McChrystal calls a ""rising tide of security."" The Afghan police and +army will enter Kandahar to attempt to seize control of neighborhoods, while the U.S. pours $90 million of aid into the city +to win over the civilian population. +Even proponents of counterinsurgency are hard-pressed to explain the new plan. ""This isn't a classic operation,"" says a +U.S. military official. ""It's not going to be Black Hawk Down. There aren't going to be doors kicked in."" Other U.S. officials +insist that doors are going to be kicked in, but that it's going to be a kinder, gentler offensive than the disaster in Marja. +""The Taliban have a jackboot on the city,"" says a military official. ""We have to remove them, but we have to do it in a way +that doesn't alienate the population."" When Vice President Biden was briefed on the new plan in the Oval Office, insiders +say he was shocked to see how much it mirrored the more gradual plan of counterterrorism that he advocated last fall. +""This looks like CT-plus!"" he said, according to U.S. officials familiar with the meeting. +Whatever the nature of the new plan, the delay underscores the fundamental flaws of counterinsurgency. After nine years +of war, the Taliban simply remains too strongly entrenched for the U.S. military to openly attack. The very people that +COIN seeks to win over — the Afghan people — do not want us there. Our supposed ally, President Karzai, used his +influence to delay the offensive, and the massive influx of aid championed by McChrystal is likely only to make things +worse. ""Throwing money at the problem exacerbates the problem,"" says Andrew Wilder, an expert at Tufts University who +has studied the effect of aid in southern Afghanistan. ""A tsunami of cash fuels corruption, delegitimizes the government +and creates an environment where we're picking winners and losers"" — a process that fuels resentment and hostility +among the civilian population. So far, counterinsurgency has succeeded only in creating a never-ending demand for the +primary product supplied by the military: perpetual war. There is a reason that President Obama studiously avoids using +the word ""victory"" when he talks about Afghanistan. Winning, it would seem, is not really possible. Not even with +Stanley McChrystal in charge. +This article originally appeared in RS 1108/1109 from July 8-22, 2010.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: sbwhoeop +Sent: Tuesday, June 22, 2010 12:07 PM +To: +Subject: H: The bigger story here is the internal revolt against McChrystal.

Stanley McChrystal. It's a Thursday night in mid-April, +and the commander of all U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan is sitting in a four-star suite at the HOtel Westminster in +Paris. He's in France to sell his new war strategy to our NATO allies — to keep up the fiction, in essence, that we actually +have allies. Since McChrystal took over a year ago, the Afghan war has become the exclusive property of the United +States. Opposition to the war has already toppled the Dutch government, forced the resignation of Germany's president +and sparked both Canada and the Netherlands to announce the withdrawal of their 4,500 troops. McChrystal is in Paris to +keep the French, who have lost more than 40 soldiers in Afghanistan, from going all wobbly on him. +""The dinner comes with the position, sir,"" says his chief of staff, Col. Charlie Flynn. +McChrystal turns sharply in his chair. +""Hey, Charlie,"" he asks, ""does this come with the position?"" +McChrystal gives him the middle finger. +The general stands and looks around the suite that his traveling staff of 10 has converted into a full-scale operations +center. The tables are crowded with silver Panasonic Toughbooks, and blue cables crisscross the hotel's thick carpet, +hooked up to satellite dishes to provide encrypted phone and e-mail communications. Dressed in off-the-rack civilian +casual — blue tie, button-down shirt, dress slacks — McChrystal is way out of his comfort zone. Paris, as one of his +advisers says, is the ""most anti-McChrystal city you can imagine."" The general hates fancy restaurants, rejecting any +place with candles on the tables as too ""Gucci."" He prefers Bud Light Lime (his favorite beer) to Bordeaux, Talladega +Nights (his favorite movie) to Jean-Luc Godard. Besides, the public eye has never been a place where McChrystal felt +comfortable: Before President Obama put him in charge of the war in Afghanistan, he spent five years running the +Pentagon's most secretive black ops. +""What's the update on the Kandahar bombing?"" McChrystal asks Flynn. The city has been rocked by two massive car +bombs in the past day alone, calling into question the general's assurances that he can wrest it from the Taliban. +""We have two KIAs, but that hasn't been confirmed,"" Flynn says. +McChrystal takes a final look around the suite. At 55, he is gaunt and lean, not unlike an older version of Christian Bale in +Rescue Dawn. His slate-blue eyes have the unsettling ability to drill down when they lock on you. If you've fucked up or +disappointed him, they can destroy your soul without the need for him to raise his voice. +""I'd rather have my ass kicked by a roomful of people than go out to this dinner,"" McChrystal says. +He pauses a beat. +""Unfortunately,"" he adds, ""no one in this room could do it."" +With that, he's out the door. +""Who's he going to dinner with?"" I ask one of his aides. +""Some French minister,"" the aide tells me. ""It's fucking gay."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 +The next morning, McChrystal and his team gather to prepare for a speech he is giving at the Ecole Militaire, a French +military academy. The general prides himself on being sharper and ballsier than anyone else, but his brashness comes +with a price: Although McChrystal has been in charge of the war for only a year, in that short time he has managed to piss +off almost everyone with a stake in the conflict. Last fall, during the question-and-answer session following a speech he +gave in London, McChrystal dismissed the counterterrorism strategy being advocated by Vice President Joe Biden as +""shortsighted,"" saying it would lead to a state of ""Chaos-istan."" The remarks earned him a smackdown from the president +himself, who summoned the general to a terse private meeting aboard Air Force One. The message to McChrystal +seemed clear: Shut the fuck up, and keep a lower profile +Now, flipping through printout cards of his speech in Paris, McChrystal wonders aloud what Biden question he might get +today, and how he should respond. ""I never know what's going to pop out until I'm up there, that's the problem,"" he says. +Then, unable to help themselves, he and his staff imagine the general dismissing the vice president with a good one- +liner. +""Are you asking about Vice President Biden?"" McChrystal says with a laugh. ""Who's that?"" +""Biden?"" suggests a top adviser. ""Did you say: Bite Me?"" +When Barack Obama entered the Oval Office, he immediately set out to deliver on his most important campaign +promise on foreign policy: to refocus the war in Afghanistan on what led us to invade in the first place. ""I want the +American people to understand,"" he announced in March 2009. ""We have a clear and focused goal: to disrupt, dismantle +and defeat Al Qaeda in Pakistan and Afghanistan."" He ordered another 21,000 troops to Kabul, the largest increase since +the war began in 2001. Taking the advice of both the Pentagon and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, he also fired Gen. David +McKiernan — then the U.S. and NATO commander in Afghanistan — and replaced him with a man he didn't know and had +met only briefly: Gen. Stanley McChrystal. It was the first time a top general had been relieved from duty during wartime in +more than 50 years, since Harry Truman fired Gen. Douglas MacArthur at the height of the Korean War. +Even though he had voted for Obama, McChrystal and his new commander in chief failed from the outset to connect. The +general first encountered Obama a week after he took office, when the president met with a dozen senior military officials +in a room at the Pentagon known as the Tank. According to sources familiar with the meeting, McChrystal thought Obama +looked ""uncomfortable and intimidated"" by the roomful of military brass. Their first one-on-one meeting took place in the +Oval Office four months later, after McChrystal got the Afghanistan job, and it didn't go much better. ""It was a 10-minute +photo op,"" says an adviser to McChrystal. ""Obama clearly didn't know anything about him, who he was. Here's the guy +who's going to run his fucking war, but he didn't seem very engaged. The Boss was pretty disappointed."" +From the start, McChrystal was determined to place his personal stamp on Afghanistan, to use it as a laboratory for a +controversial military strategy known as counterinsurgency. COIN, as the theory is known, is the new gospel of the +Pentagon brass, a doctrine that attempts to square the military's preference for high-tech violence with the demands of +fighting protracted wars in failed states. COIN calls for sending huge numbers of ground troops to not only destroy the +enemy, but to live among the civilian population and slowly rebuild, or build from scratch, another nation's government — a +process that even its staunchest advocates admit requires years, if not decades, to achieve. The theory essentially +rebrands the military, expanding its authority (and its funding) to encompass the diplomatic and political sides of warfare: +Think the Green Berets as an armed Peace Corps. In 2006, after Gen. David Petraeus beta-tested the theory during his +""surge"" in Iraq, it quickly gained a hardcore following of think-tankers, journalists, military officers and civilian officials. +Nicknamed ""COINdinistas"" for their cultish zeal, this influential cadre believed the doctrine would be the perfect solution +for Afghanistan. All they needed was a general with enough charisma and political savvy to implement it. +As McChrystal leaned on Obama to ramp up the war, he did it with the same fearlessness he used to track down terrorists +in Iraq: Figure out how your enemy operates, be faster and more ruthless than everybody else, then take the fuckers out. +After arriving in Afghanistan last June, the general conducted his own policy review, ordered up by Defense Secretary +Robert Gates. The now-infamous report was leaked to the press, and its conclusion was dire: If we didn't send another +40,000 troops — swelling the number of U.S. forces in Afghanistan by nearly half — we were in danger of ""mission failure."" +The White House was furious. McChrystal, they felt, was trying to bully Obama, opening him up to charges of being weak +on national security unless he did what the general wanted. It was Obama versus the Pentagon, and the Pentagon was +determined to kick the president's ass. +Last fall, with his top general calling for more troops, Obama launched a three-month review to re-evaluate the strategy in +Afghanistan. ""I found that time painful,"" McChrystal tells me in one of several lengthy interviews. ""I was selling an +unsellable position."" For the general, it was a crash course in Beltway politics — a battle that pitted him against +experienced Washington insiders like Vice President Biden, who argued that a prolonged counterinsurgency campaign in +Afghanistan would plunge America into a military quagmire without weakening international terrorist networks. ""The entire +COIN strategy is a fraud perpetuated on the American people,"" says Douglas Macgregor, a retired colonel and leading +critic of counterinsurgency who attended West Point with McChrystal. ""The idea that we are going to spend a trillion +dollars to reshape the culture of the Islamic world is utter nonsense. +In the end, however, McChrystal got almost exactly what he wanted. On December 1st, in a speech at West Point, the +president laid out all the reasons why fighting the war in Afghanistan is a bad idea: It's expensive; we're in an economic +crisis; a decade-long commitment would sap American power; Al Qaeda has shifted its base of operations to Pakistan. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 +Then, without ever using the words ""victory"" or ""win,"" Obama announced that he would send an additional 30,000 troops +to Afghanistan, almost as many as McChrystal had requested. The president had thrown his weight, however hesitantly, +behind the counterinsurgency crowd. +Today, as McChrystal gears up for an offensive in southern Afghanistan, the prospects for any kind of success look bleak. +In June, the death toll for U.S. troops passed 1,000, and the number of IEDs has doubled. Spending hundreds of billions +of dollars on the fifth-poorest country on earth has failed to win over the civilian population, whose attitude toward U.S. +troops ranges from intensely wary to openly hostile. Thetiggest military operation of the year — a ferocious offensive that +began in February to retake the southern town of Marja — continues to drag on, prompting McChrystal himself to refer to it +as a ""bleeding ulcer."" In June, Afghanistan officially outpaced Vietnam as the longest war in American history — and +Obama has quietly begun to back away from the deadline he set for withdrawing U.S. troops in July of next year. The +president finds himself stuck in something even more insane than a quagmire: a quagmire he knowingly walked into, even +though it's precisely the kind of gigantic, mind-numbing, multigenerational nation-building project he explicitly said he +didn't want. +Even those who support McChrystal and his strategy of counterinsurgency know that whatever the general manages to +accomplish in Afghanistan, it's going to look more like Vietnam than Desert Storm. ""It's not going to look like a win, smell +like a win or taste like a win,"" says Maj. Gen. Bill Mayville, who serves as chief of operations for McChrystal. ""This is going +to end in an argument."" +The night after his speech in Paris, McChrystal and his staff head to Kitty O'Shea's, an Irish pub catering to tourists, +around the corner from the hotel. His wife, Annie, has joined him for a rare visit: Since the Iraq War began in 2003, she +has seen her husband less than 30 days a year. Though it is his and Annie's 33rd wedding anniversary, McChrystal has +invited his inner circle along for dinner and drinks at the ""least Gucci"" place his staff could find. His wife isn't surprised. +""He once took me to a Jack in the Box when I was dressed in formalwear,"" she says with a laugh. +The general's staff is a handpicked collection of killers, spies, geniuses, patriots, political operators and outright maniacs. +There's a former head of British Special Forces, two Navy Seals, an Afghan Special Forces commando, a lawyer, two +fighter pilots and at least two dozen combat veterans and counterinsurgency experts. They jokingly refer to themselves as +Team America, taking the name from the South Park-esque sendup of military cluelessness, and they pride themselves +on their can-do attitude and their disdain for authority. After arriving in Kabul last summer, Team America set about +changing the culture of the International Security Assistance Force, as the NATO-led mission is known. (U.S. soldiers had +taken to deriding ISAF as short for ""I Suck at Fighting"" or ""In Sandals and Flip-Flops."") McChrystal banned alcohol on +base, kicked out Burger King and other symbols of American excess, expanded the morning briefing to include thousands +of officers and refashioned the command center into a Situational Awareness Room, a free-flowing information hub +modeled after Mayor Mike Bloomberg's offices in New York. He also set a manic pace for his staff, becoming legendary +for sleeping four hours a night, running seven miles each morning, and eating one meal a day. (In the month I spend +around the general, I witness him eating only once.) It's a kind of superhuman narrative that has built up around him, a +staple in almost every media profile, as if the ability to go without sleep and food translates into the possibility of a man +single-handedly winning the war. +By midnight at Kitty O'Shea's, much of Team America is completely shitfaced. Two officers do an Irish jig mixed with steps +from a traditional Afghan wedding dance, while McChrystal's top advisers lock arms and sing a slurred song of their own +invention.""Afghanistan!"" they bellow.""Afghanistan!"" They call it their Afghanistan song. +McChrystal steps away from the circle, observing his team. ""All these men,"" he tells me. ""I'd die for them. And they'd die +for me."" +The assembled men may look and sound like a bunch of combat veterans letting off steam, but in fact this tight-knit group +represents the most powerful force shaping U.S. policy in Afghanistan. While McChrystal and his men are in indisputable +command of all military aspects of the war, there is no equivalent position on the diplomatic or political side. Instead, an +assortment of administration players compete over the Afghan portfolio: U.S. Ambassador Karl Eikenberry, Special +Representative to Afghanistan Richard Holbrooke, National Security Advisor Jim Jones and Secretary of State Hillary +Clinton, not to mention 40 or so other coalition ambassadors and a host of talking heads who try to insert themselves into +the mess, from John Kerry to John McCain. This diplomatic incoherence has effectively allowed McChrystal's team to call +the shots and hampered efforts to build a stable and credible government in Afghanistan. ""It jeopardizes the mission,"" +says Stephen Biddle, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations who supports McChrystal. ""The military cannot +by itself create governance reform."" +Part of the problem is structural: The Defense Department budget exceeds $600 billion a year, while the State +Department receives only $50 billion. But part of the problem is personal: In private, Team McChrystal likes to talk shit +about many of Obama's top people on the diplomatic side. One aide calls Jim Jones, a retired four-star general and +veteran of the Cold War, a ""clown"" who remains ""stuck in 1985."" Politicians like McCain and Kerry, says another aide, +""turn up, have a meeting with Karzai, criticize him at the airport press conference, then get back for the Sunday talk +shows. Frankly, it's not very helpful."" Only Hillary Clinton receives good reviews from McChrystal's inner circle. ""Hillary +had Stan's back during the strategic review,"" says an adviser. ""She said, 'If Stan wants it, give him what he needs.'"" +McChrystal reserves special skepticism for Holbrooke, the official in charge of reintegrating the Taliban. ""The Boss says +he's like a wounded animal,"" says a member of the general's team. ""Holbrooke keeps hearing rumors that he's going to +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 +get fired, so that makes him dangerous. He's a brilliant guy, but he just comes in, pulls on a lever, whatever he can grasp +onto. But this is COIN, and you can't just have someone yanking on shit."" +At one point on his trip to Paris, McChrystal checks his BlackBerry. ""Oh, not another e-mail from Holbrooke,"" he groans. ""I +don't even want to open it."" He clicks on the message and reads the salutation out loud, then stuffs the BladkBerry back in +his pocket, not bothering to conceal his annoyance. +""Make sure you don't get any of that on your leg,"" an aide jokes, referring to the e-mail. +By far the most crucial — and strained — relationship is between McChrystal and Eikenberry, the U.S. ambassador. +According to those close to the two men, Eikenberry — a retired three-star general who served in Afghanistan in 2002 and +2005 — can't stand that his former subordinate is now calling the shots. He's also furious that McChrystal, backed by +NATO's allies, refused to put Eikenberry in the pivotal role of viceroy in Afghanistan, which would have made him the +diplomatic equivalent of the general. The job instead went to British Ambassador Mark Sedwill — a move that effectively +increased McChrystal's influence over diplomacy by shutting out a powerful rival. ""In reality, that position needs to be filled +by an American for it to have weight,"" says a U.S. official familiar with the negotiations. +The relationship was further strained in January, when a classified cable that Eikenberry wrote was leaked to The New +York Times. The cable was as scathing as it was prescient. The ambassador offered a brutal critique of McChrystal's +strategy, dismissed President Hamid Karzai as ""not an adequate strategic partner,"" and cast doubt on whether the +counterinsurgency plan would be ""sufficient"" to deal with Al Qaeda. ""We will become more deeply engaged here with no +way to extricate ourselves,"" Eikenberry warned, ""short of allowing the country to descend again into lawlessness and +chaos."" +McChrystal and his team were blindsided by the cable. ""I like Karl, I've known him for years, but they'd never said +anything like that to us before,"" says McChrystal, who adds that he felt ""betrayed"" by the leak. ""Here's one that covers his +flank for the history books. Now if we fail, they can say, 'I told you so.'"" +The most striking example of McChrystal's usurpation of diplomatic policy is his handling of Karzai. It is McChrystal, not +diplomats like Eikenberry or Holbrooke, who enjoys the best relationship with the man America is relying on to lead +Afghanistan. The doctrine of counterinsurgency requires a credible government, and since Karzai is not considered +credible by his own people, McChrystal has worked hard to make him so. Over the past few months, he has accompanied +the president on more than 10 trips around the country, standing beside him at political meetings, or shuras, in Kandahar. +In February, the day before the doomed offensive in Marja, McChrystal even drove over to the president's palace to get +him to sign off on what would be the largest military operation of the year. Karzai's staff, however, insisted that the +president was sleeping off a cold and could not be disturbed. After several hours of haggling, McChrystal finally enlisted +the aid of Afghanistan's defense minister, who persuaded Karzai's people to wake the president from his nap. +This is one of the central flaws with McChrystal's counterinsurgency strategy: The need to build a credible government +puts us at the mercy of whatever tin-pot leader we've backed — a danger that Eikenberry explicitly warned about in his +cable. Even Team McChrystal privately acknowledges that Karzai is a less-than-ideal partner. ""He's been locked up in his +palace the past year,"" laments one of the general's top advisers. At times, Karzai himself has actively undermined +McChrystal's desire to put him in charge. During a recent visit to Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Karzai met three U.S. +soldiers who had been wounded in Uruzgan province. ""General,"" he called out to McChrystal, ""I didn't even know we were +fighting in Uruzgan!"" +Growing up as a military brat, McChrystal exhibited the mixture of brilliance and cockiness that would follow him +throughout his career. His father fought in Korea and Vietnam, retiring as a two-star general, and his four brothers all +joined the armed services. Moving around to different bases, McChrystal took solace in baseball, a sport in which he +made no pretense of hiding his superiority: In Little League, he would call out strikes to the crowd before whipping a +fastball down the middle. +McChrystal entered West Point in 1972, when the U.S. military was close to its all-time low in popularity. His class was the +last to graduate before the academy started to admit women. The ""Prison on the Hudson,"" as it was known then, was a +potent mix of testosterone, hooliganism and reactionary patriotism. Cadets repeatedly trashed the mess hall in food fights, +and birthdays were celebrated with a tradition called ""rat fucking,"" which often left the birthday boy outside in the snow or +mud, covered in shaving cream. ""It was pretty out of control,"" says Lt. Gen. David Barno, a classmate who went on to +serve as the top commander in Afghanistan from 2003 to 2005. The class, filled with what Barno calls ""huge talent"" and +""wild-eyed teenagers with a strong sense of idealism,"" also produced Gen. Ray Odierno, the current commander of U.S. +forces in Iraq. +The son of a general, McChrystal was also a ringleader of the campus dissidents — a dual role that taught him how to +thrive in a rigid, top-down environment while thumbing his nose at authority every chance he got. He accumulated more +than 100 hours of demerits for drinking, partying and insubordination — a record that his classmates boasted made him a +""century man."" One classmate, who asked not to be named, recalls finding McChrystal passed out in the shower after +downing a case of beer he had hidden under the sink. The troublemaking almost got him kicked out, and he spent hours +subjected to forced marches in the Area, a paved courtyard where unruly cadets were disciplined.

His most compelling work was extracurricular: As managing editor of The Pointer, the West Point literary +magazine, McChrystal wrote seven short stories that eerily foreshadow many of the issues he would confront in his +career. In one tale, a fictional officer complains about the difficulty of training foreign troops to fight; in another, a 19-year- +old soldier kills a boy he mistakes for a terrorist. In ""Brinkman's Note,"" a piece of suspense fiction, the unnamed narrator +appears to be trying to stop a plot to assassinate the president. It turns out, however, that the narrator himself is the +assassin, and he's able to infiltrate the White House: ""The President strode in smiling. From the right coat pocket of the +raincoat I carried, I slowly drew forth my 32-caliber pistol. In Brinkman's failure, I had succeeded."" +After graduation, 2nd Lt. Stanley McChrystal entered an Army that was all but broken in the wake of Vietnam. ""We really +felt we were a peacetime generation,"" he recalls. ""There was the Gulf War, but even that didn't feel like that big of a deal."" +So McChrystal spent his career where the action was: He enrolled in Special Forces school and became a regimental +commander of the 3rd Ranger Battalion in 1986. It was a dangerous position, even in peacetime — nearly two dozen +Rangers were killed in training accidents during the Eighties. It was also an unorthodox career path: Most soldiers who +want to climb the ranks to general don't go into the Rangers. Displaying a penchant for transforming systems he considers +outdated, McChrystal set out to revolutionize the training regime for the Rangers. He introduced mixed martial arts, +required every soldier to qualify with night-vision goggles on the rifle range and forced troops to build up their endurance +with weekly marches involving heavy backpacks. +In the late 1990s, McChrystal shrewdly improved his inside game, spending a year at Harvard's Kennedy School of +Government and then at the Council on Foreign Relations, where he co-authored a treatise on the merits and drawbacks +of humanitarian interventionism. But as he moved up through the ranks, McChrystal relied on the skills he had learned as +a troublemaking kid at West Point: knowing precisely how far he could go in a rigid military hierarchy without getting +tossed out. Being a highly intelligent badass, he discovered, could take you far — especially in the political chaos that +followed September 11th. ""He was very focused,"" says Annie. ""Even as a young officer he seemed to know what he +wanted to do. I don't think his personality has changed in all these years."" +By some accounts, McChrystal's career should have been over at least two times by now. As Pentagon spokesman +during the invasion of Iraq, the general seemed more like a White House mouthpiece than an up-and-coming commander +with a reputation for speaking his mind. When Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld made his infamous ""stuff happens"" +remark during the looting of Baghdad, McChrystal backed him up. A few days later, he echoed the president's Mission +Accomplished gaffe by insisting that major combat operations in Iraq were over. But it was during his next stint — +overseeing the military's most elite units, including the Rangers, Navy Seals and Delta Force — that McChrystal took part +in a cover-up that would have destroyed the career of a lesser man. +After Cpl. Pat Tillman, the former-NFL-star-turned-Ranger, was accidentally killed by his own troops in Afghanistan in April +2004, McChrystal took an active role in creating the impression that Tillman had died at the hands of Taliban fighters. He +signed off on a falsified recommendation for a Silver Star that suggested Tillman had been killed by enemy fire. +(McChrystal would later claim he didn't read the recommendation closely enough — a strange excuse for a commander +known for his laserlike attention to minute details.) A week later, McChrystal sent a memo up the chain of command, +specifically warning that President Bush should avoid mentioning the cause of Tillman's death. ""If the circumstances of +Corporal Tillman's death become public,"" he wrote, it could cause ""public embarrassment"" for the president. +""The false narrative, which McChrystal clearly helped construct, diminished Pat's true actions,"" wrote Tillman's mother, +Mary, in her book Boots on the Ground by Dusk. McChrystal got away with it, she added, because he was the ""golden +boy"" of Rumsfeld and Bush, who loved his willingness to get things done, even if it included bending the rules or skipping +the chain of command. Nine days after Tillman's death, McChrystal was promoted to major general. +Two years later, in 2006, McChrystal was tainted by a scandal involving detainee abuse and torture at Camp Nama in +Iraq. According to a report by Human Rights Watch, prisoners at the camp were subjected to a now-familiar litany of +abuse: stress positions, being dragged naked through the mud. McChrystal was not disciplined in the scandal, even +though an interrogator at the camp reported seeing him inspect the prison multiple times. But the experience was so +unsettling to McChrystal that he tried to prevent detainee operations from being placed under his command in +Afghanistan, viewing them as a ""political swamp,"" according to a U.S. official. In May 2009, as McChrystal prepared for +his confirmation hearings, his staff prepared him for hard questions about Camp Nama and the Tillman cover-up. But the +scandals barely made a ripple in Congress, and McChrystal was soon on his way back to Kabul to run the war in +Afghanistan. +The media, to a large extent, have also given McChrystal a pass on both controversies. Where Gen. Petraeus is kind of a +dweeb, a teacher's pet with a Ranger's tab, McChrystal is a snake-eating rebel, a ""Jedi"" commander, as Newsweek called +him. He didn't care when his teenage son came home with blue hair and a mohawk. He speaks his mind with a candor +rare for a high-ranking official. He asks for opinions, and seems genuinely interested in the response. He gets briefings on +his iPod and listens to books on tape. He carries a custom-made set of nunchucks in his convoy engraved with his name +and four stars, and his itinerary often bears a fresh quote from Bruce Lee. (""There are no limits. There are only plateaus, +and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them."") He went out on dozens of nighttime raids during his time in Iraq, +unprecedented for a top commander, and turned up on missions unannounced, with almost no entourage. ""The fucking +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 +lads love Stan McChrystal,"" says a British officer who serves in Kabul. ""You'd be out in Somewhere, Iraq, and someone +would take a knee beside you, and a corporal would be like 'Who the fuck is that?' And it's fucking Stan McChrystal."" +It doesn't hurt that McChrystal was also extremely successful as head of the Joint Special Operations Command, the elite +forces that carry out the government's darkest ops. During the Iraq surge, his team killed and captured thousands of +insurgents, including Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the leader of Al Qaeda in Iraq. ""JSOC was a killing machine,"" says Maj. Gen. +Mayville, his chief of operations. McChrystal was also open to new ways of killing. He systematically mapped out terrorist +networks, targeting specific insurgents and hunting them down — often with the help of cyberfreaks traditionally shunned +by the military. ""The Boss would find the 24-year-old kid with a nose ring, with some fucking brilliant degree from MIT, +sitting in the corner with 16 computer monitors humming,"" says a Special Forces commando who worked with McChrystal +in Iraq and now serves on his staff in Kabul. ""He'd say, 'Hey — you fucking muscleheads couldn't find lunch without help. +You got to work together with these guys.'"" +Even in his new role as America's leading evangelist for counterinsurgency, McChrystal retains the deep-seated instincts +of a terrorist hunter. To put pressure on the Taliban, he has upped the number of Special Forces units in Afghanistan from +four to 19. ""You better be out there hitting four or five targets tonight,"" McChrystal will tell a Navy Seal he sees in the +hallway at headquarters. Then he'll add, ""I'm going to have to scold you in the morning for it, though."" In fact, the general +frequently finds himself apologizing for the disastrous consequences of counterinsurgency. In the first four months of this +year, NATO forces killed some 90 civilians, up 76 percent from the same period in 2009 — a record that has created +tremendous resentment among the very population that COIN theory is intent on winning over. In February, a Special +Forces night raid ended in the deaths of two pregnant Afghan women and allegations of a cover-up, and in April, protests +erupted in Kandahar after U.S. forces accidentally shot up a bus, killing five Afghans. ""We've shot an amazing number of +people,"" McChrystal recently conceded. +Despite the tragedies and miscues, McChrystal has issued some of the strictest directives to avoid civilian casualties that +the U.S. military has ever encountered in a war zone. It's ""insurgent math,"" as he calls it — for every innocent person you +kill, you create 10 new enemies. He has ordered convoys to curtail their reckless driving, put restrictions on the use of air +power and severely limited night raids. He regularly apologizes to Hamid Karzai when civilians are killed, and berates +commanders responsible for civilian deaths. ""For a while,"" says one U.S. official, ""the most dangerous place to be in +Afghanistan was in front of McChrystal after a 'civ cas' incident."" The ISAF command has even discussed ways to make +not killing into something you can win an award for: There's talk of creating a new medal for ""courageous restraint,"" a +buzzword that's unlikely to gain much traction in the gung-ho culture of the U.S. military. +But however strategic they may be, McChrystal's new marching orders have caused an intense backlash among his own +troops. Being told to hold their fire, soldiers complain, puts them in greater danger. ""Bottom line?"" says a former Special +Forces operator who has spent years in Iraq and Afghanistan. ""I would love to kick McChrystal in the nuts. His rules of +engagement put soldiers' lives in even greater danger. Every real soldier will tell you the same thing."" +In March, McChrystal traveled to Combat Outpost JFM — a small encampment on the outskirts of Kandahar — to confront +such accusations from the troops directly. It was a typically bold move by the general. Only two days earlier, he had +received an e-mail from Israel Arroyo, a 25-year-old staff sergeant who asked McChrystal to go on a mission with his unit. +""I am writing because it was said you don't care about the troops and have made it harder to defend ourselves,"" Arroyo +wrote. +Within hours, McChrystal responded personally: ""I'm saddened by the accusation that I don't care about soldiers, as it is +something I suspect any soldier takes both personally and professionally — at least I do. But I know perceptions depend +upon your perspective at the time, and I respect that every soldier's view is his own."" Then he showed up at Arroyo's +outpost and went on a foot patrol with the troops — not some bullshit photo-op stroll through a market, but a real live +operation in a dangerous war zone. +Six weeks later, just before McChrystal returned from Paris, the general received another e-mail from Arroyo. A 23-year- +old corporal named Michael Ingram — one of the soldiers McChrystal had gone on patrol with — had been killed by an IED +a day earlier. It was the third man the 25-member platoon had lost in a year, and Arroyo was writing to see if the general +would attend Ingram's memorial service. ""He started to look up to you,"" Arroyo wrote. McChrystal said he would try to +make it down to pay his respects as soon as possible. +The night before the general is scheduled to visit Sgt. Arroyo's platoon for the memorial, I arrive at Combat Outpost JFM +to speak with the soldiers he had gone on patrol with. JFM is a small encampment, ringed by high blast walls and guard +towers. Almost all of the soldiers here have been on repeated combat tours in both Iraq and Afghanistan, and have seen +some of the worst fighting of both wars. But they are especially angered by Ingram's death. His commanders had +repeatedly requested permission to tear down the house where Ingram was killed, noting that it was often used as a +combat position by the Taliban. But due to McChrystal's new restrictions to avoid upsetting civilians, the request had been +denied. ""These were abandoned houses,"" fumes Staff Sgt. Kennith Hicks. ""Nobody was coming back to live in them."" +One soldier shows me the list of new regulations the platoon was given. ""Patrol only in areas that you are reasonably +certain that you will not have to defend yourselves with lethal force,"" the laminated card reads. For a soldier who has +traveled halfway around the world to fight, that's like telling a cop he should only patrol in areas where he knows he won't +have to make arrests. ""Does that make any fucking sense?"" asks Pfc. Jared Pautsch. ""We should just drop a fucking +bomb on this place. You sit and ask yourself: What are we doing here?"" +The rules handed out here are not what McChrystal intended — they've been distorted as they passed through the chain of +command — but knowing that does nothing to lessen the anger of troops on the ground. ""Fuck, when I came over here and +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 +heard that McChrystal was in charge, I thought we would get our fucking gun on,"" says Hicks, who has served three tours +of combat. ""I get COIN. I get all that. McChrystal comes here, explains it, it makes sense. But then he goes away on his +bird, and by the time his directives get passed down to us through Big Army, they're all fucked up — either because +somebody is trying to cover their ass, or because they just don't understand it themselves. But we're fucking losing this +thing."" +McChrystal and his team show up the next day. Underneath a tent, the general has a 45-minute discussion with some two +dozen soldiers. The atmosphere is tense. ""I ask you what's going on in your world, and I think it's important for you all to +understand the big picture as well,"" McChrystal begins. ""How's the company doing? You guys feeling sorry for +yourselves? Anybody? Anybody feel like you're losing?"" McChrystal says. +""Sir, some of the guys here, sir, think we're losing, sir,"" says Hicks. +McChrystal nods. ""Strength is leading when you just don't want to lead,"" he tells the men. ""You're leading by example. +That's what we do. Particularly when it's really, really hard, and it hurts inside."" Then he spends 20 minutes talking about +counterinsurgency, diagramming his concepts and principles on a whiteboard. He makes COIN seem like common sense, +but he's careful not to bullshit the men. ""We are knee-deep in the decisive year,"" he tells them. The Taliban, he insists, no +longer has the initiative — ""but I don't think we do, either."" It's similar to the talk he gave in Paris, but it's not winning any +hearts and minds among the soldiers. ""This is the philosophical part that works with think tanks,"" McChrystal tries to joke. +""But it doesn't get the same reception from infantry companies."" +During the question-and-answer period, the frustration boils over. The soldiers complain about not being allowed to use +lethal force, about watching insurgents they detain be freed for lack of evidence. They want to be able to fight — like they +did in Iraq, like they had in Afghanistan before McChrystal. 'We aren't putting fear into the Taliban,"" one soldier says. +""Winning hearts and minds in COIN is a coldblooded thing,"" McChrystal says, citing an oft-repeated maxim that you can't +kill your way out of Afghanistan. ""The Russians killed 1 million Afghans, and that didn't work."" +""I'm not saying go out and kill everybody, sir,"" the soldier persists. ""You say we've stopped the momentum of the +insurgency. I don't believe that's true in this area. The more we pull back, the more we restrain ourselves, the stronger it's +getting."" +""I agree with you,"" McChrystal says. ""In this area, we've not made progress, probably. You have to show strength here, +you have to use fire. What I'm telling you is, fire costs you. What do you want to do? You want to wipe the population out +here and resettle it?"" +A soldier complains that under the rules, any insurgent who doesn't have a weapon is immediately assumed to be a +civilian. ""That's the way this game is,"" McChrystal says. ""It's complex. I can't just decide: It's shirts and skins, and we'll kill +all the shirts."" +As the discussion ends, McChrystal seems to sense that he hasn't succeeded at easing the men's anger. He makes one +last-ditch effort to reach them, acknowledging the death of Cpl. Ingram. ""There's no way I can make that easier,"" he tells +them. ""No way I can pretend it won't hurt. No way I can tell you not to feel that. . . . I will tell you, you're doing a great job. +Don't let the frustration get to you."" The session ends with no clapping, and no real resolution. McChrystal may have sold +President Obama on counterinsurgency, but many of his own men aren't buying it. +When it comes to Afghanistan, history is not on McChrystal's side. The only foreign invader to have any success here +was Genghis Khan — and he wasn't hampered by things like human rights, economic development and press scrutiny. +The COIN doctrine, bizarrely, draws inspiration from some of the biggest Western military embarrassments in recent +memory: France's nasty war in Algeria (lost in 1962) and the American misadventure in Vietnam (lost in 1975). +McChrystal, like other advocates of COIN, readily acknowledges that counterinsurgency campaigns are inherently messy, +expensive and easy to lose. ""Even Afghans are confused by Afghanistan,"" he says. But even if he somehow manages to +succeed, after years of bloody fighting with Afghan kids who pose no threat to the U.S. homeland, the war will do little to +shut down Al Qaeda, which has shifted its operations to Pakistan. Dispatching 150,000 troops to build new schools, +roads, mosques and water-treatment facilities around Kandahar is like trying to stop the drug war in Mexico by occupying +Arkansas and building Baptist churches in Little Rock. ""It's all very cynical, politically,"" says Marc Sageman, a former CIA +case officer who has extensive experience in the region. ""Afghanistan is not in our vital interest — there's nothing for us +there."" +In mid-May, two weeks after visiting the troops in Kandahar, McChrystal travels to the White House for a high-level visit by +Hamid Karzai. It is a triumphant moment for the general, one that demonstrates he is very much in command — both in +Kabul and in Washington. In the East Room, which is packed with journalists and dignitaries, President Obama sings the +praises of Karzai. The two leaders talk about how great their relationship is, about the pain they feel over civilian +casualties. They mention the word ""progress"" 16 times in under an hour. But there is no mention of victory. Still, the • +session represents the most forceful commitment that Obama has made to McChrystal's strategy in months. ""There is no +denying the progress that the Afghan people have made in recent years — in education, in health care and economic +development,"" the president says. ""As I saw in the lights across Kabul when I landed — lights that would not have been +visible just a few years earlier."" +It is a disconcerting observation for Obama to make. During the worst years in Iraq, when the Bush administration had no +real progress to point to, officials used to offer up the exact same evidence of success. ""It was one of our first +impressions,"" one GOP official said in 2006, after landing in Baghdad at the height of the sectarian violence. ""So many +lights shining brightly."" So it is to the language of the Iraq War that the Obama administration has turned — talk of +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 +progress, of city lights, of metrics like health care and education. Rhetoric that just a few years ago they would have +mocked. ""They are trying to manipulate perceptions because there is no definition of victory — because victory is not even +defined or recognizable,"" says Celeste Ward, a senior defense analyst at the RAND Corporation who served as a political +adviser to U.S. commanders in Iraq in 2006. ""That's the game we're in right now. What we need, for strategic purposes, is +to create the perception that we didn't get run off. The facts on the ground are not great, and are not going to become +great in the near future."" +But facts on the ground, as history has proven, offer little deterrent to a military determined to stay the course. Even those +closest to McChrystal know that the rising anti-war sentiment at home doesn't begin to reflect how deeply fucked up things +are in Afghanistan. ""If Americans pulled back and started paying attention to this war, it would become even less popular,"" +a senior adviser to McChrystal says. Such realism, however, doesn't prevent advocates of counterinsurgency from +dreaming big: Instead of beginning to withdraw troops next year, as Obama promised, the military hopes to ramp up its +counterinsurgency campaign even further. ""There's a possibility we could ask for another surge of U.S. forces next +summer if we see success here,"" a senior military official in Kabul tells me. +Back in Afghanistan, less than a month after the White House meeting with Karzai and all the talk of ""progress,"" +McChrystal is hit by the biggest blow to his vision of counterinsurgency. Since last year, the Pentagon had been planning +to launch a major military operation this summer in Kandahar, the country's second-largest city and the Taliban's original +home base. It was supposed to be a decisive turning point in the war — the primary reason for the troop surge that +McChrystal wrested from Obama late last year. But on June 10th, acknowledging that the military still needs to lay more +groundwork, the general announced that he is postponing the offensive until the fall. Rather than one big battle, like +Fallujah or Ramadi, U.S. troops will implement what McChrystal calls a ""rising tide of security."" The Afghan police and +army will enter Kandahar to attempt to seize control of neighborhoods, while the U.S. pours $90 million of aid into the city +to win over the civilian population. +Even proponents of counterinsurgency are hard-pressed to explain the new plan. ""This isn't a classic operation,"" says a +U.S. military official. ""It's not going to be Black Hawk Down. There aren't going to be doors kicked in."" Other U.S. officials +insist that doors are going to be kicked in, but that it's going to be a kinder, gentler offensive than the disaster in Marja. +""The Taliban have a jackboot on the city,"" says a military official. ""We have to remove them, but we have to do it in a way +that doesn't alienate the population."" When Vice President Biden was briefed on the new plan in the Oval Office, insiders +say he was shocked to see how much it mirrored the more gradual plan of counterterrorism that he advocated last fall. +""This looks like CT-plus!"" he said, according to U.S. officials familiar with the meeting. +Whatever the nature of the new plan, the delay underscores the fundamental flaws of counterinsurgency. After nine years +of war, the Taliban simply remains too strongly entrenched for the U.S. military to openly attack. The very people that +COIN seeks to win over — the Afghan people — do not want us there. Our supposed ally, President Karzai, used his +influence to delay the offensive, and the massive influx of aid championed by McChrystal is likely only to make things +worse. ""Throwing money at the problem exacerbates the problem,"" says Andrew Wilder, an expert at Tufts University who +has studied the effect of aid in southern Afghanistan. ""A tsunami of cash fuels corruption, delegitimizes the government +and creates an environment where we're picking winners and losers"" — a process that fuels resentment and hostility +among the civilian population. So far, counterinsurgency has succeeded only in creating a never-ending demand for the +primary product supplied by the military: perpetual war. There is a reason that President Obama studiously avoids using +the word ""victory"" when he talks about Afghanistan. Winning, it would seem, is not really possible. Not even with +Stanley McChrystal in charge. +This article originally appeared in RS 1108/1109 from July 8-22, 2010. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769954 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5289,C05769956,CONFIDENTIAL,H,"Blair, Cherie",30,2010-06-15T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0083/DOC_0C05769956/C05769956.pdf,F-2014-020439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: confidential,,Cherie Blair <,,"Tuesday, June 15, 2010 3:05 AM",F-2014-20439,C05769956,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"W I'll send you details later +Sent from my iPad +On 15 Jun 2010, at 02:37, ""H"" wrote: +> I would be happy to meet w hiim.

Gays & +Lesbians in Foreign Affairs Agencies, the affinity group for LGBT employees at the State Department, +coordinated the event. +The secretary compared LGBT rights to human rights after describing discrimination and oppression that many +people face in other countries. She said these abuses sometimes consist of people being ""harassed, beaten, +subjected to sexual violence — even killed — because of who they are and who they love."" +""In some places, violence against the LGBT community is permitted by law and inflamed by public calls to +violence,"" she said. ""In others, it persists insidiously behind closed doors. These dangers are not gay issues. +This is a human rights issue."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769961 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769961 Date: 08/31/2015 +Clinton was well received by the more than 400 people who attended the State Department event. She received +a standing ovation before and after her speech. +The secretary said she's been ""greatly motivated"" by the personal stories of LGBT people over her lifetime and +that they helped shape the course of her political career. +She recalled how as a first lady she marched in a Pride parade — something a first lady had never done before +— and noted she co-sponsored a number of pro-LGBT bills in her previous role as a U.S. senator from New +York, including hate crimes bill and the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. +In an effort to continue that commitment to LGBT people, Clinton said the State Department would ""advance a +comprehensive human rights agenda"" that would include an end to violence and discrimination based on sexual +orientation and gender identity. +She said efforts to confront this oppression consist of ""elevating our human rights dialogues"" with foreign +governments to protect LGBT people as well as documenting anti-gay abuses in the State Department's annual +human rights report. +One of the arms of the State Department that Clinton commended for taking the lead at confronting anti-gay +abuses was the Bureau of African Affairs, which she said directed every U.S. embassy in Africa to report on the +conditions of local LGBT communities. Clinton noted that she's asked every regional bureau ""to make this +issue a priority."" +Clinton said Foreign Service officers in the State Department are siding with pro-LGBT groups overseas despite +threats to personal safety. She cited the participation of U.S. officials last month in Slovakia's first ever Pride +parade as one example. +""There were anti-gay protesters who became violent and the police used tear gas, which our chargee and other +diplomats were exposed to — a quite unpleasant experience, but a service to a just cause,"" she said. +On the domestic front, Clinton recognized that many LGBT Americans feel frustrated on the lack of progress on +advancing LGBT issues. Still, Clinton urged patience and said much progress has already been made. +""I know when you're in the midst of a great movement of change, it seems like it is glacial, but any fair +assessment — from my perspective, and I lived longer than at least more than 75 percent of you — is that it is +extraordinary what has happened in such a short period of time,"" she said. +Clinton said the U.S. has come ""such a far distance"" in advancing LGBT rights, but said are there many people +within the country who need outreach and support to ""stand up and be who they are."" +""The struggle for equality is never, ever finished,"" she said. ""And it is rarely easy, despite how self-evident it +should be, but the hardest fought battles often have the biggest impact."" +The secretary encouraged LGBT people to look out for others who may need a hand — such as LGBT youth, +whom Clinton said ""still, in numbers far beyond what should ever happen, take their own lives rather than live +that life."" +""So, I hope that each and every one of us will recommit ourselves to building a future in which every person — +every single person — can live in dignity, free from violence, free to be themselves, free to live up to their God- +given potential — wherever they live and whoever they are,"" she said. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769961 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769961 Date: 08/31/2015 +Reminder: This list is an invitation only lists and all posts are OFF THE RECORD. +You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups ""InsidersOut"" group. +To post to this group, send email to InsidersOut@googlegroups.com +To unsubscribe from this group, send email to InsidersOut-unsubscribe@googlegroups.com +For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/InsidersOut?h1=en +Richard Socarides, Esq. +Brady Klein Weissman LLP +501 Fifth Avenue, 19th Floor, New York, NY 10017 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769961 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5292,C05769964,ARE YOU STILL AT OFFICE?,H,"Hanley, Monica R",150,2010-06-22T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0084/DOC_0C05769964/C05769964.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,RE: Are you still at office?,H,"Hanley, Monica R ",,"Tuesday, June 22, 2010 7:44 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769964,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Yes I am.

And if we don't change quickly, we're going to lose a war we can't +afford to lose,"" warned Graham. +Graham and his colleagues warmly praised Obama's decision to replace General Stanley +McChrystal with General David Petraeus, but cautioned that diplomatic failures could +hamstring his efforts to manage the increasingly unpopular war. +McCain suggested that Obama bring back veteran diplomat Ryan Crocker, who was ambassador +to Baghdad when he and Petraeus enacted the ""surge"" strategy credited in Washington with +bringing Iraq back from the brink of civil war. +""We might suggest that a consideration be given to reuniting the Crocker-Petraeus team, +although I'm sure that Ambassador Crocker will never forgive me for saying that, since +he's enjoying his retirement,"" McCain said with a chuckle. +""There is discontent -- or let me say, there is a lack of coordination and teamwork -- +between the military and civilian side, both at the embassy and other areas, in +Afghanistan that needs to be repaired,"" said McCain. +Lieberman took a slightly softer line, but underlined he felt ""there is not the kind of +unity in Afghanistan between our civilian and military leadership"" that is needed to +prosecute Obama's counterinsurgency strategy. +The senators sharply criticized McChrystal over a Rolling Stone magazine profile in which +the general and his aides are quoted as mocking top Obama national security aides, from +Vice President Joe Biden on down. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769991 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769991 Date: 08/31/2015 +McChrystal himself is quoted as deriding US special envoy Richard Holbrooke, and as +saying he felt ""betrayed"" by Eikenberry, who had raised pointed objections to his +strategy. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05769991 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5310,C05769992,TONIGHT,H,PIR,170,2010-06-23T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0084/DOC_0C05769992/C05769992.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Tonight,H,PIR ","Mills, Cheryl D","Wednesday, June 16, 2010 10:20 PM",F-2014-20439,C05769993,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Overall the speech is worth reading; if you like I'll have it put in your weekend book. 2 passages +particularly worth noting. +1.

Bush's tenure. +But America continues to face image challenges in the Muslim world. After edging up slightly in 2009, U.S. favorability +and confidence in Obama have slipped in key predominantly Muslim nations: America's favorability rating in Egypt has +dropped from 27% to 17% — the lowest figure recorded there in five years. In Turkey, a NATO ally, confidence in Obama +has fallen from 33% to 23%. Opposition to key aspects of U.S. foreign policy remains pervasive and many Muslim +publics continue to view the U.S as a military threat. +Even beyond largely Muslim nations, the survey finds disagreement with Obama's foreign policies. Majorities continue to +see the U.S. as acting unilaterally in world affairs. And global publics give Obama a mixed report card on his handling of +specific problems: About as many countries approve as disapprove of Obama's handling of the situations in Afghanistan, +Iran and Iraq. Of 22 nations surveyed, including the U.S, only in three nations do majorities approve of Obama's handling +of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In Western Europe, while substantial majorities support U.S. anti-terrorism efforts, +nearly 6-in-10 Germans favor withdrawing their troops from Afghanistan, and British and French publics are evenly split +on whether troops should be withdrawn or kept. +But in a striking difference from the Bush years, these policy disagreements have not significantly dented the U.S. image. +The U.S. favorability rating in Western Europe is overwhelmingly positive, and confidence in Obama to do the right thing +in world affairs remains high: 90% express confidence in Germany, 87% in France, 84% in Britain and 69% in Spain. +Moreover, Obama gets good marks on his handling of two issues of importance to European publics — climate change and +the economic crisis. +More generally, global publics express widespread dissatisfaction about the economy, though they are less gloomy than in +2009. In 20 of 22 countries, less than half the population expresses satisfaction with their country's direction, and only in +four countries do people say economic conditions are good. Disgnmtled publics fault their governments, banks and then +themselves for their economic troubles. In Europe, amid growing economic troubles, there are no signs of a backlash +against the European Union. Large majorities remain supportive of the EU and the euro. But European publics are divided +about the merits of economic integration and differ over the bailing-out of EU member countries. +The new survey by the Pew Research Center's Global Attitudes Project, conducted among more than 24,000 people in 22 +nations April 7 to May 8, provides an in-depth look at attitudes toward major powers and world leaders; the global +economic situation from free trade to financial regulation; Islamic extremism; and international problems such as climate +change. Key findings include: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770016 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770016 Date: 08/31/2015 +• America's Image — U.S. favorability has improved markedly in Russia, China and Japan. It has fallen in India, +but remains high — dipping from 76% in 2009 to 66% in 2010. America's image is highly positive in South Korea +(79% favorable), Poland (74%) and Brazil (62%). +• The Arizona Effect: U.S. favorability in Mexico has tumbled in the wake of Arizona's new immigration law — +from 62% in polling conducted before the law's enactment to 44% afterward. +• European Leaders: German Chancellor Angela Merkel is well regarded in Britain and Spain, and gets higher +ratings for her handling of international affairs in France than in Germany itself. French President Nicolas +Sarkozy, similarly, gets better ratings in Germany than in France, but the French leader is less well-regarded in +Britain and Spain. Confidence about Russian President Dmitri Medvedev is on the rise, with ratings up in all five +EU member nations surveyed. +• China on the Rise: A growing portion of global publics sees China, rather than the U.S, as the world's leading +economic power. China itself is the most self-satisfied nation in the survey. Roughly nine-in-ten Chinese are +happy with the direction of the country (87%), its economic conditions (91%), and optimistic about its economic +future (87%). +• Islamic Extremism: There is no predominantly Muslim nation polled in which a majority of Muslims endorse +suicide bombing, al Qaeda or Osama bin Laden. But in Nigeria, a significant minority of Muslims express +extremist views -- 49% express a favorable view of al Qaeda. +• Isolationism: Americans are no more isolationist than Europeans. When asked whether their country should deal +with its own problems and let others take care of themselves, nearly half of Americans (46%), Germans (44%) +and British (49%) agree. The French are the most isolationist, with 65% opposing helping other nations cope with +their challenges. +• Environment: Substantial majorities in most countries see global climate change as a serious problem, but global +opinion is more divided when it comes to paying increased prices to combat climate change. Willingness to pay +higher prices is nearly universal in China and majorities express support in India, South Korea, Japan, Turkey and +Germany. Views about paying higher prices are mixed in Spain, Britain and Brazil, while majorities express +opposition in the U.S., France, Russia and many less affluent nations surveyed. +• Iran and Nuclear Weapons: Majorities in nearly every country surveyed, including predominantly Muslim +nations, express opposition to a nuclear-armed Iran. A notable exception is Pakistan, the only nation surveyed in +which a majority (58%) favor Iran's nuclear weapons program. Among global publics who oppose a nuclear- +armed Iran, substantial support exists for applying tougher international economic sanctions against Iran. Less +widespread, but still significant, support exists for considering the use of military force to prevent Iran from +developing nuclear weapons. +For a direct link to the full report, go to http://pewglobal.org/2010/06/17/obama-more-popular-abroad-than-at-home/.

Although I departed before the pogroms had commenced in Osh, I found that the +interim government fully expected violence to break out there but did not anticipate the inter-ethnic +element. Several candidly acknowledged that the government's grip on the south, particularly Osh and +Djalalabad provinces, was extremely tenuous.

UK polls show support for the Lib-Dems after the launch of the draconian Cameron +government budget cratering. LD support is down to 16 percent, half what it was at its +peak during the election and half of LD members now express a desire to defect from +their party. They feel deceived by LD ministers' participation in a Tory budget opposed +to their own beliefs. In Parliament, a secret caucus of LDs is meeting with Labour about +opposing the budget. Meanwhile, short term support for Cameron is static and for the +government slightly up, but only translated to the Tories. Both the Tories and Labour are +up, profiting from the LD quandary. The scenario is potentially portentous for the LD +Party: There was once an influential Australian Liberal Democratic Party, holding 11 +percent of the vote and the balance of power in the Australian Senate. Upon reaching its +zenith in 1996 the ALDP supported a Liberal (that is to say, a conservative) +government's budget and suffered collapse. Today the ALDP holds 1 percent of the seats +in the lower House. The political effect of the conservative budget will almost certainly +lead to an implosion of the Tory-LD coalition. In the short run it's possible the Tories +will emerge having the greatest plurality of support. But if their budget does not produce +prosperity they will pay the price, too. See Stiglitz's analysis below on the Tory budget +with cold analysis of the US predicament. +2. The implications for US-UK cooperation are apparent. While there are spheres that +remain, they are contingent, including the Afghanistan War, opposed by 75 percent of +UK public and about which Cameron felt compelled this week to declare UK engagement +would end in five years (that is, before the next UK election). On economic policy, the +UK is no partner and no bridge to Europe, where the Merkel government has entered a +fugue state of vertigo (another subject). At no other time since World War II have the US +and UK governments been at such odds over international economics. With JFK and +Macmillan, Macmillan accepted the postwar Keynesian consensus. Reagan and Thatcher, +of course, were of one mind ideologically, and the international economy was buoyed by +Reagan's hyper-Keynesianism masked as Thatcherism.

Speaking of laissez faire, Cameron must be let alone to +receive the consequences (within 18 months) of his ideologically driven economics. Can +he be engaged on international development? Or does his budget rule that out too? +There's not much there. +3. The Labour Party leadership contest is heating up. David Miliband has an article out +today on how the Camerfin budget will foster ""a lost generation."" More on that soon... +http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/osbornes-first-budget-its-wrong-wrong-wrong- +2011501.html +Osborne's first Budget? It's wrong, +wrong, wrong! +Joseph Stiglitz, the Nobel prizewinner who predicted the global crisis, delivers his verdict on the +Chancellor's first Budget and tells Paul Vallely it will take the UK deeper into recession and hit millions — +the poorest — badly +Sunday, 27 June 2010 +George Osborne will probably not be very bothered that there is a man who thinks he got last week's +emergency Budget almost entirely wrong. But he should be. Because that man is a former chief +economist at the World Bank who won the Nobel Prize for Economics for his work on why markets do not +produce the outcomes which, in theory, they ought to. +Professor Joseph Stiglitz, who has been described as the biggest brain in economics, is distinctly +unimpressed by George Osborne's strategy. This, he predicts, will make Britain's recovery from recession +longer, slower and harder than it needs to be. The rise in VAT could even tip us into a double-dip +recession. +Stiglitz, who was once Bill Clinton's senior economic adviser, is now professor of economics and finance +at Columbia Business School. He was in the UK this week at the University of Manchester, where he +chairs the Brooks World Poverty Institute, but he lifted his head from the detail of international +development to scrutinise the economic strategy of the Conservative Chancellor whose Liberal Democrat +partners recently reversed their judgement that massive public spending cuts now would endanger the +economy and joined in the Tory slash-and-burn strategy. They were deeply wrong to do so, he believes. +It would be a mistake to ignore Stiglitz on this. He has a track record of getting his predictions right. He +was one of the few economists who predicted the global financial meltdown long before it occurred. +'What happened was very much in accord with what I expected,"" he tells me when we meet for a coffee +outside the Blackwell bookshop in the centre of the university. ""The data was pretty clear about that."" And +the scale of the crash? ""That wasn't a surprise,"" he adds, in a matter-of-fact manner. ""The bigger the +bubble, the bigger the burst. +""The thing most economists did not fully grasp was the extent to which the banks engaged in murky risk- +taking activities. They were taking a risk with our money, their shareholders' money, the bond-holders' +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770025 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770025 Date: 08/31/2015 +money,"" he says. Banks were demanding up to 40 per cent of the corporate profits, saying their +innovative financing was adding value. But ""all this talk about innovation was a sham"" because it did not +relate to any real increase in the economy's productivity, he says. +""There was a prima facie case of something screwy going on [with all the] perverse incentives that would +lead them to take excessive risk. But there was no way anyone could know or believe that the banks were +[conducting themselves] at that level of stupidity. I predicted that there was going to be a collapse +because of the information asymmetry problems that were being created."" His Nobel prize was given for +exactly that — showing how markets fail because different people in them hold different levels of +information. +Yet there is no hint of l-told-you-so about Stiglitz's tone as he asks the waiter for coffee. He orders +decaffeinated, but suggests the British economy needs the opposite: a stiff stimulant rather than the +""fiscal consolidation"" which is George Osborne's economic euphemism for cuts. +Fiscal stimulus is out of fashion now. World leaders embarked on that strategy — injecting money to re- +energise the economy — after the banking crash three years ago. It was widely perceived not to have +worked because the money governments pumped into the banks was not passed on to ailing businesses +or individuals in trouble with their mortgages. +""The problem was that, in the US, the stimulus wasn't big enough,"" he says. ""Too much of it was in tax +cuts. And when they gave money to the banks they gave it to the wrong banks and, as a result, credit has +not been restored — we can expect a couple of million or more homes to be repossessed this year than +last year — and the economy has not been restarted."" Instead of producing a consensus that the +government should have done more, it has created disillusion that the government can do anything, +Stiglitz says. +The result is that, following the attacks by the financial markets on Greece and then Spain, everybody is +now in a mood of retrenchment. ""It's not just pre-Keynesian, it's Hooverite,"" he says. By which he means +governments are not just refusing to stimulate, they are making cuts, as Herbert Hoover did in the US in +1929 — when he turned the Wall Street Crash into the Great Depression. ""Hoover had this idea that, +whenever you go into recession, deficits grow, so he decided to go for cuts — which is what the foolish +financial markets that got us into this trouble in the first place now want."" +It has become the new received wisdom throughout Europe. But it is the classic error made by those who +confuse a household's economics with those of a national economy. +""If you have a household that can't pay its debts, you tell it to cut back on spending to free up the cash to +pay the debts. But in a national economy, if you cut back on your spending, then economic activity goes +down, nobody invests, the amount of tax you take goes down, the amount you pay out in unemployment +benefits goes up — and you don't have enough money to pay your debts. +""The old story is still true: you cut expenditures and the economy goes down. We have lots of +experiments which show this, thanks to Herbert Hoover and the IMF,"" he adds. The IMF imposed that +mistaken policy in Korea, Thailand, Indonesia, Argentina and hosts of other developing countries in the +1980s and 1990s. ""So we know what will happen: economies will get weaker, investment will get stymied +and it's a downward vicious spiral. How far down we don't know — it could be a Japanese malaise. Japan +did an experiment just like this in 1997; just as it was recovering, it raised VAT and went into another +recession."" +Then why have we not learned from all that? Because politicians like George Osborne are driven by +ideology; the national deficit is an excuse to shrink the state because that is what he wanted anyway. +Because the financial market only cares about one thing — getting repaid. And because other European +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770025 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770025 Date: 08/31/2015 +governments are panicking because of the market's wild attack on Greece and Spain, and they don't want +to be next. +""But cutbacks in Germany, Britain and France will mean all of Europe will suffer. The cuts will all feed +back negatively. And if everyone follows this policy, their budget deficits will get worse, so they will have +to make more cuts and raise taxes more. It's a vicious downward spiral. We're now looking at a long, +hard, slow recovery with the possibility of a double dip if everybody cuts back at the same time. The best +scenario is long and hard ... and the worst is much worse. If any one of these countries is forced into +default, the banking system is so highly leveraged that it could cause real problems. This is really risky, +really scary."" +So what should we be doing? ""The lesson is not that you cut back spending, but that you redirect it. You +cut out the war in Afghanistan. You cut a couple of hundred billion dollars of wasteful military expenditure. +You cut out oil subsidies. There's a long list of things we can cut. But you increase spending in other +areas, such as research and development, infrastructure, education"" — areas where government can get +a good return on the investment of public money. ""I haven't done the calculation for Britain, but, for the +US, all you need is a return on government investment of 5 to 6 per cent and the long-term deficit debt is +lowered."" +Taxes also need to be restructured. Osborne has increased capital gains tax for high earners from 18 to +28 per cent. ""There's absolutely no reason why you couldn't tax speculative gains [from rising house or +land prices] by 40 per cent. There's no social return on it and land is going to be there whether people +have speculated or not. But you lower the tax on investment in things like R&D."" +Stiglitz has one more practical solution to offer. Governments should set up their own banks to restart +lending to businesses and save struggling homeowners from repossession. ""If the banks aren't lending, +let's create a new lending facility to do that job,"" he says. ""In the US, we gave $700bn to the banks; if we +had used a fraction of that to create a new bank, we could have financed all the lending that was +needed."" +Indeed, it could be done for far less. ""Take $100bn, lever that at 10 to 1 [by attracting funds from the +private sector] and that's a trillion-dollar new lending capacity — more than the real economy needs."" +Such a move would help ordinary people more than all Osborne's rhetoric about being tough but fair. +Stiglitz is sceptical, too, about the moral underpinning of a Budget which claims that ""we are all in this +together"", but then hits the poorest hardest. +Analysis by the Institute for Fiscal Studies has suggested that the Chancellor's Budget will cost the poor +2.5 per cent of their income, while the rich will lose just 1 per cent. ""I've not made an independent study +on that point, but cuts in public services will have a disproportionate effect on the poor,"" Stiglitz says. +Osborne's Budget ""may be well-intentioned, but it takes an enormous amount of work to make sure that a +package of public spending cuts of that magnitude doesn't hit the poor disproportionately"". +His big fear is that overseas aid, which has been protected in this first round of cuts, will not escape a +second. ""Developing countries have redirected themselves towards Asia, and China in particular, in +recent years, so growth in Africa will be more robust than one might have expected, given the severity of +the downturn,"" he says. +Even so, aid remains vital to poor countries. ""If aid is cut back, growth will be badly affected,"" he says. +""China is providing aid, but its aid is all in infrastructure, whereas aid from the US and Europe is mainly in +education and health — areas in which ordinary people will suffer most if there are cuts."" +Joseph Stiglitz has come full circle. What the world needs now — developing and developed — is not +retrenchment but greater economic stimulus. It is not a message many are in the mood to hear. But they +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770025 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770025 Date: 08/31/2015 +didn't listen to him last time, either.

Singapore is a society that notoriously produces hardheads in its strategic outlook. But Yeo combines Singapore's +characteristic hard-headedness with a depth of historical understanding and context, as well as a lively human sympathy +for the diversity of the region that surrounds him, which I, at any event, find almost unique. I remember interviewing +him at the height of the East Asian economic crisis in 1997 and asking whether this crisis shattered the idea of Asia as +the growing centre of the global economy, as numerous foolishly triumphalist Western commentators were then +suggesting. ""No it doesn't,"" Yeo told me. ""At the most it might put back the forecasts by five or 10 years."" It moved the +graph a little to the right, it didn't change the trends. On that, Yeo was absolutely right. +But it is also Yeo's ability to apply the insights of history to the real problems of Asia today which make him formidable. +This week, Yeo spent a few days in Australia and I caught up with him for one of those slightly mesmerising historical +tour de force conversations in which he specialises. +It is no secret Singapore had the most serious reservations about Kevin Rudd's proposal to establish an Asia-Pacific +Community. The Prime Minister wanted the US, India and Russia included in a regional body which could deal with +strategic issues as well as trade and economics. Singapore's hesitation over the Rudd proposal came because it thought +that the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, of which it is a key member, could be sidelined. I asked Yeo whether the +region was now clear on what it wanted its organisations to accomplish. ""We still need a lot more discussion,"" he said. +""The vision is going to change dramatically, with the emergence of China and India on the global stage. The +configuration is evolving much faster than most of us would have preferred. But that's the reality we've got to work +with. +We need a regional architecture which is able to accommodate the stresses. The single most important relationship is +between the US and China. Increasingly, the relationship between India and China is becoming more important. I think +eventually a triangular relationship will decide the big issues of war and peace in Asia this century - the triangle +consisting of the US, China and India."" +Yeo saw Rudd and Foreign Minister Stephen Smith in Canberra and now describes Canberra and Singapore as being in +harmony on the evolution of regional organisations. This is how he saw it having played out: ""When Prime Minister Rudd +proposed the APC, Dick Woolcott (Rudd's envoy) went round the region. He did not visit all countries. He made it quite +plain to some that only the big countries of ASEAN need to be involved. We talked among ourselves and quite soon the +conclusion was reached that ASEAN was going to be sidelined. So there was an immediate blowback from the region. +""To PM Rudd's credit he quickly clarified this, that ASEAN is central to his conception of the APC and that that was his +vision from the very beginning. I said, 'All of us in the region are very relieved to hear that'. +""Separately we had (former Japanese) prime minister (Yukio) Hatoyama articulating his view of an East Asian region +apparently centred on China, Japan and Korea. It created, as you would expect, a natural reaction in Southeast Asia. That +got us all thinking in the region. How to keep Russia and the US in the region in a way that's comfortable. For a long time +we've been thinking about China, more recently about India."" Yeo pointed out that earlier regional organisations also +evolved slowly, in particular the East Asia Summit, which includes Australia and New Zealand, as well as ASEAN, China, +Japan, South Korea and India. He said: ""It took us a long time to create the EAS structure. Some preferred it to be based +on the ASEAN plus three (China, Japan, Korea), harking back to (former Malaysian prime minister) Mahathir +(Mohamad)'s East Asian caucus. ""Others felt that's too limiting. If it's just ASEAN plus three, that may be a little lop-sided +because of the economic weight of the plus three. So we thought if we have India on one side, and Australia and New +Zealand to the south, there's a certain natural equipoise. +""Then it took many discussions.

Whatever evolves, nobody is going to call it the +Asia-Pacific Community and no one is going to imagine that Rudd was its founder, as everyone accepts that Bob Hawke +founded APEC in 1989. On the other hand, it does seem as though it's very much more than likely that there will finally +be a regional organisation embracing everyone from the US to India, which is able to discuss security. That is pretty +much Rudd's policy aim and, as Yeo constructively puts it, Rudd has influenced ASEAN thinking. Friends of Rudd can +describe it as the embodiment of his vision and fulfilment of his initiative. His enemies can say the APC came to nothing +and was a failure in Australian diplomacy. Certainly Yeo casts it in a constructive light. There is only space to give the +smallest sampling of Yeo's prodigiously rich insights on other issues. +On the US, he said: ""Both Australia and Singapore feel it in our bones that the US will remain a great power for many +decades. It is a vast country always throwing up new ideas, always on the boil. It has a sunny disposition. We in +Singapore and Australia feel it in our bones that one way or another they will get out of their current difficulties."" +On China, I asked whether its political development was keeping pace with its growth in power, financial and military, so +it could manage that new power in a way that was beneficial to everybody. Yeo stressed that he was sure Beijing's +preoccupations were internal, and said: ""China is the No 1 trading partner for Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, India +and already No 2 for New Zealand, and for all the countries (in Asia) the graph points in the same direction."" +(The historical process) is high drama in China. It was historically because of the large rural peasantry that Maoism +developed as a different ideology from Bolshevism. China was 20 per cent urban. It's now 40 per cent urban and will go +to 80 per cent or 90 per cent. The urbanisation of Europe was languid by comparison, but look at Dickens or Victor Hugo. +Look at the huge reaction in Europe to urbanisation and industrialisation. In China it's all compressed. If they succeed +they will be the greatest nation on Earth. The Chinese know they have to learn new tricks. The skills which brought them +to power won't keep them in power."" +He recalled that early in China's economic modernisation program it was fascinated by how Singapore, as a mostly +Chinese nation, ran its society in such an orderly and effective manner, combining rapid economic growth with social +order and a respect for tradition. Then that interest seemed to wane. But now Chinese delegations are back again in +large numbers, fascinated particularly with how Singapore manages the politics of being a big and booming +city. Mainland Chinese are even sitting in on politicians' electoral clinics in Singapore, observing how real problems are +recognised, integrated into the system and dealt with. +I asked Yeo too whether he thought Japan could sustain the stabilising role it has played in Asia these past 60 years. He +replied: ""Their politics now are a mess. Partly because they fit the pieces together so closely, reconfiguring the pieces is- +difficult. A lot of Japanese politics now is not about fitting the pieces together but pulling them apart. +""The DP1 came to power determined to pull the pieces apart, the Liberal Democratic Party from big business from the +bureacracy. Never write Japan off. It takes a long time for them to change but when they do change they do it with a +fury and intensity that surprises everyone."" Japan has gone through profound periods of change in the past - the Meiji +Restoration of the 19th century, in which it decided to become a modern nation; or the pervasive change after World +War II, in which it decided to embrace democracy and the role of the key US ally in the region. The fact that it is now +grappling with change is no reason to think it cannot emerge again with a successful model. +Yeo is an old, old friend of Australia, and in a sense a long-term champion of Australia's involvement in Southeast Asia. +He has been a minister in the Singapore government for more than 20 years.

Singapore is a society that notoriously produces hardheads in its strategic outlook. But Yeo combines Singapore's +characteristic hard-headedness with a depth of historical understanding and context, as well as a lively human sympathy +for the diversity of the region that surrounds him, which I, at any event, find almost unique. I remember interviewing +him at the height of the East Asian economic crisis in 1997 and asking whether this crisis shattered the idea of Asia as +the growing centre of the global economy, as numerous foolishly triumphalist Western commentators were then +suggesting. ""No it doesn't,"" Yeo told me. ""At the most it might put back the forecasts by five or 10 years."" It moved the +graph a little to the right, it didn't change the trends. On that, Yeo was absolutely right. +But it is also Yeo's ability to apply the insights of history to the real problems of Asia today which make him formidable. +This week, Yeo spent a few days in Australia and I caught up with him for one of those slightly mesmerising historical +tour de force conversations in which he specialises. +It is no secret Singapore had the most serious reservations about Kevin Rudd's proposal to establish an Asia-Pacific +Community. The Prime Minister wanted the US, India and Russia included in a regional body which could deal with +strategic issues as well as trade and economics. Singapore's hesitation over the Rudd proposal came because it thought +that the Association of Southeast Asian Nations, of which it is a key member, could be sidelined. I asked Yeo whether the +region was now clear on what it wanted its organisations to accomplish. ""We still need a lot more discussion,"" he said. +""The vision is going to change dramatically, with the emergence of China and India on the global stage. The +configuration is evolving much faster than most of us would have preferred. But that's the reality we've got to work +with. +We need a regional architecture which is able to accommodate the stresses. The single most important relationship is +between the US and China. Increasingly, the relationship between India and China is becoming more important. I think +eventually a triangular relationship will decide the big issues of war and peace in Asia this century - the triangle +consisting of the US, China and India."" +Yeo saw Rudd and Foreign Minister Stephen Smith in Canberra and now describes Canberra and Singapore as being in +harmony on the evolution of regional organisations. This is how he saw it having played out: ""When Prime Minister Rudd +proposed the APC, Dick Woolcott (Rudd's envoy) went round the region. He did not visit all countries. He made it quite +plain to some that only the big countries of ASEAN need to be involved. We talked among ourselves and quite soon the +conclusion was reached that ASEAN was going to be sidelined. So there was an immediate blowback from the region. +""To PM Rudd's credit he quickly clarified this, that ASEAN is central to his conception of the APC and that that was his +vision from the very beginning. I said, 'All of us in the region are very relieved to hear that'. +""Separately we had (former Japanese) prime minister (Yukio) Hatoyama articulating his view of an East Asian region +apparently centred on China, Japan and Korea. It created, as you would expect, a natural reaction in Southeast Asia. That +got us all thinking in the region. How to keep Russia and the US in the region in a way that's comfortable. For a long time +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770063 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770063 Date: 08/31/2015 +we've been thinking about China, more recently about India."" Yeo pointed out that earlier regional organisations also +evolved slowly, in particular the East Asia Summit, which includes Australia and New Zealand, as well as ASEAN, China, +Japan, South Korea and India. He said: ""It took us a long time to create the EAS structure. Some preferred it to be based +on the ASEAN plus three (China, Japan, Korea), harking back to (former Malaysian prime minister) Mahathir +(Mohamad)'s East Asian caucus. ""Others felt that's too limiting. If it's just ASEAN plus three, that may be a little lop-sided +because of the economic weight of the plus three. So we thought if we have India on one side, and Australia and New +Zealand to the south, there's a certain natural equipoise. +""Then it took many discussions. The Russians wanted to join the EAS but we felt this should not be rushed. Russia is too +important a country. There was some unhappiness from the Russians that we did not accommodate them in the EAS at +that time. (Former US) President (George W.) Bush did not want to join the EAS but he worried that the EAS might +exclude the US from the region.

LD support is down to 16 percent, half what it was at its peak during the election and half of +LD members now express a desire to defect from their party. They feel deceived by LD ministers' +participation in a Tory budget opposed to their own beliefs. In Parliament, a secret caucus of LDs is +meeting with Labour about opposing the budget. Meanwhile, short term support for Cameron is static +and for the government slightly up, but only translated to the Tories. Both the Tories and Labour are up, +profiting from the LD quandary. The scenario is potentially portentous for the LD Party: There was once +an influential Australian Liberal Democratic Party, holding 11 percent of the vote and the balance of +power in the Australian Senate. Upon reaching its zenith in 1996 the ALDP supported a Liberal (that is +to say, a conservative) government's budget and suffered collapse. Today the ALDP holds 1 percent of +the seats in the lower House. The political effect of the conservative budget will almost certainly lead to +an implosion of the Tory-LD coalition. In the short run it's possible the Tories will emerge having the +greatest plurality of support. But if their budget does not produce prosperity they will pay the price, too. +See Stiglitz's analysis below on the Tory budget with cold analysis of the US predicament. +The implications for US-UK cooperation are apparent. While there are spheres that remain, they are +contingent, including the Afghanistan War, opposed by 75 percent of UK public and about which +Cameron felt compelled this week to declare UK engagement would end in five years (that is, before the +next UK election). On economic policy, the UK is no partner and no bridge to Europe, where the Merkel +government has entered a fugue state of vertigo (another subject). At no other time since World War II +have the US and UK governments been at such odds over international economics. With JFK and +Macmillan, Macmillan accepted the postwar Keynesian consensus.

David Miliband has an article out today on how the +Cameron budget will foster ""a lost generation."" More on that soon... +http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uldpolitics/osbornes-first-budget-its-wrong-wrong-wrong-2011501.html +Osborne's first Budget? It's wrong, wrong, +wrong! +Joseph Stiglitz, the Nobel prizewinner who predicted the global crisis, delivers his verdict on the Chancellor's first Budget +and tells Paul Vallely it will take the UK deeper into recession and hit millions — the poorest — badly +Sunday, 27 June 2010 +George Osborne will probably not be very bothered that there is a man who thinks he got last week's emergency Budget +almost entirely wrong. But he should be. Because that man is a former chief economist at the World Bank who won the +Nobel Prize for Economics for his work on why markets do not produce the outcomes which, in theory, they ought to. +Professor Joseph Stiglitz, who has been described as the biggest brain in economics, is distinctly unimpressed by George +Osborne's strategy. This, he predicts, will make Britain's recovery from recession longer, slower and harder than it needs +to be. The rise in VAT could even tip us into a double-dip recession. +Stiglitz, who was once Bill Clinton's senior economic adviser, is now professor of economics and finance at Columbia +Business School. He was in the UK this week at the University of Manchester, where he chairs the Brooks World Poverty +Institute, but he lifted his head from the detail of international development to scrutinise the economic strategy of the +Conservative Chancellor whose Liberal Democrat partners recently reversed their judgement that massive public +spending cuts now would endanger the economy and joined in the Tory slash-and-burn strategy. They were deeply wrong +to do so, he believes. +It would be a mistake to ignore Stiglitz on this. He has a track record of getting his predictions right. He was one of the few +economists who predicted the global financial meltdown long before it occurred. +""What happened was very much in accord with what I expected,"" he tells me when we meet for a coffee outside the +Blackwell bookshop in the centre of the university. ""The data was pretty clear about that."" And the scale of the crash? +""That wasn't a surprise,"" he adds, in a matter-of-fact manner. ""The bigger the bubble, the bigger the burst. +""The thing most economists did not fully grasp was the extent to which the banks engaged in murky risk-taking activities. +They were taking a risk with our money, their shareholders' money, the bond-holders' money,"" he says. Banks were +demanding up to 40 per cent of the corporate profits, saying their innovative financing was adding value. But ""all this talk +about innovation was a sham"" because it did not relate to any real increase in the economy's productivity, he says. +""There was a prima fade case of something screwy going on [with all the] perverse incentives that would lead them to +take excessive risk. But there was no way anyone could know or believe that the banks were [conducting themselves] at +that level of stupidity. I predicted that there was going to be a collapse because of the information asymmetry problems +that were being created."" His Nobel prize was given for exactly that — showing how markets fail because different people +in them hold different levels of information. +Yet there is no hint of I-told-you-so about Stiglitz's tone as he asks the waiter for coffee. He orders decaffeinated, but +suggests the British economy needs the opposite: a stiff stimulant rather than the ""fiscal consolidation"" which is George +Osborne's economic euphemism for cuts. +Fiscal stimulus is out of fashion now. World leaders embarked on that strategy — injecting money to re-energise the +economy — after the banking crash three years ago. It was widely perceived not to have worked because the money +governments pumped into the banks was not passed on to ailing businesses or individuals in trouble with their mortgages. +""The problem was that, in the US, the stimulus wasn't big enough,"" he says. ""Too much of it was in tax cuts. And when +they gave money to the banks they gave it to the wrong banks and, as a result, credit has not been restored — we can +expect a couple of million or more homes to be repossessed this year than last year — and the economy has not been +restarted."" Instead of producing a consensus that the government should have done more, it has created disillusion that +the government can do anything, Stiglitz says. +The result is that, following the attacks by the financial markets on Greece and then Spain, everybody is now in a mood of +retrenchment. ""It's not just pre-Keynesian, it's Hooverite,"" he says. By which he means governments are not just refusing +to stimulate, they are making cuts, as Herbert Hoover did in the US in 1929 — when he turned the Wall Street Crash into +the Great Depression. ""Hoover had this idea that, whenever you go into recession, deficits grow, so he decided to go for +cuts — which is what the foolish financial markets that got us into this trouble in the first place now want."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770087 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770087 Date: 08/31/2015 +It has become the new received wisdom throughout Europe. But it is the classic error made by those who confuse a +household's economics with those of a national economy. +""If you have a household that can't pay its debts, you tell it to cut back on spending to free up the cash to pay the debts. +But in a national economy, if you cut back on your spending, then economic activity goes down, nobody invests, the +amount of tax you take goes down, the amount you pay out in unemployment benefits goes up — and you don't have +enough money to pay your debts. +""The old story is still true: you cut expenditures and the economy goes down. We have lots of experiments which show +this, thanks to Herbert Hoover and the IMF,"" he adds. The IMF imposed that mistaken policy in Korea, Thailand, +Indonesia, Argentina and hosts of other developing countries in the 1980s and 1990s. ""So we know what will happen: +economies will get weaker, investment will get stymied and it's a downward vicious spiral. How far down we don't know — +it could be a Japanese malaise. Japan did an experiment just like this in 1997; just as it was recovering, it raised VAT and +went into another recession."" +Then why have we not learned from all that? Because politicians like George Osborne are driven by ideology; the national +deficit is an excuse to shrink the state because that is what he wanted anyway. Because the financial market only cares +about one thing — getting repaid. And because other European governments are panicking because of the market's wild +attack on Greece and Spain, and they don't want to be next. +""But cutbacks in Germany, Britain and France will mean all of Europe will suffer. The cuts will all feed back negatively. +And if everyone follows this policy, their budget deficits will get worse, so they will have to make more cuts and raise taxes +more. It's a vicious downward spiral. We're now looking at a long, hard, slow recovery with the possibility of a double dip if +everybody cuts back at the same time. The best scenario is long and hard ... and the worst is much worse. If any one of +these countries is forced into default, the banking system is so highly leveraged that it could cause real problems. This is +really risky, really scary."" +So what should we be doing? ""The lesson is not that you cut back spending, but that you redirect it. You cut out the war in +Afghanistan. You cut a couple of hundred billion dollars of wasteful military expenditure. You cut out oil subsidies. There's +a long list of things we can cut. But you increase spending in other areas, such as research and development, +infrastructure, education"" — areas where government can get a good return on the investment of public money. ""I haven't +done the calculation for Britain, but, for the US, all you need is a return on government investment of 5 to 6 per cent and +the long-term deficit debt is lowered."" +Taxes also need to be restructured. Osborne has increased capital gains tax for high earners from 18 to 28 per cent. +""There's absolutely no reason why you couldn't tax speculative gains [from rising house or land prices] by 40 per cent. +There's no social return on it and land is going to be there whether people have speculated or not. But you lower the tax +on investment in things like R&D."" +Stiglitz has one more practical solution to offer. Governments should set up their own banks to restart lending to +businesses and save struggling homeowners from repossession. ""If the banks aren't lending, let's create a new lending +facility to do that job,"" he says. ""In the US, we gave $700bn to the banks; if we had used a fraction of that to create a new +bank, we could have financed all the lending that was needed."" +Indeed, it could be done for far less. ""Take $100bn, lever that at 10 to 1 [by attracting funds from the private sector] and +that's a trillion-dollar new lending capacity — more than the real economy needs."" +Such a move would help ordinary people more than all Osborne's rhetoric about being tough but fair. Stiglitz is sceptical, +too, about the moral underpinning of a Budget which claims that ""we are all in this together"", but then hits the poorest +hardest. +Analysis by the Institute for Fiscal Studies has suggested that the Chancellor's Budget will cost the poor 2.5 per cent of +their income, while the rich will lose just 1 per cent. ""I've not made an independent study on that point, but cuts in public +services will have a disproportionate effect on the poor,"" Stiglitz says. Osborne's Budget ""may be well-intentioned, but it +takes an enormous amount of work to make sure that a package of public spending cuts of that magnitude doesn't hit the +poor disproportionately"". +His big fear is that overseas aid, which has been protected in this first round of cuts, will not escape a second. +""Developing countries have redirected themselves towards Asia, and China in particular, in recent years, so growth in +Africa will be more robust than one might have expected, given the severity of the downturn,"" he says. +Even so, aid remains vital to poor countries. ""If aid is cut back, growth will be badly affected,"" he says. ""China is providing +aid, but its aid is all in infrastructure, whereas aid from the US and Europe is mainly in education and health — areas in +which ordinary people will suffer most if there are cuts."" +Joseph Stiglitz has come full circle. What the world needs now — developing and developed — is not retrenchment but +greater economic stimulus. It is not a message many are in the mood to hear. But they didn't listen to him last time, either. +And he turned out to be right, and they were wrong — and at what a cost to us all. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770087 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5366,C05770088,CAROLINE,,"Reines, Philippe I",170,2010-06-27T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0085/DOC_0C05770088/C05770088.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Caroline,,"Reines, Philippe I ",,"Sunday, June 27, 2010 11:22 AM",F-2014-20439,C05770088,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,AdlerCE@state.gov,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770088 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Reines, Philippe I +Sent: Sunday, June 27, 2010 11:22 AM +Subject: Caroline +AdlerCE@state.gov +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770088 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5367,C05770096,NOTES FORMAT,H,"Russo, Robert V",185,2010-06-27T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0085/DOC_0C05770096/C05770096.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Notes format,,"Russo, Robert V ",,"Sunday, June 27, 2010 2:16 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770096,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,Great - I will work with Claire to find a good time.

That will spell the end forever of the Tories ever coming to power. +The Tories see the election in apocalyptic terms—and they are not wrong. Brown's weakness heralds the sort of grand +progressive coalition/alliance that Tony imagined but was never able to attempt between Labour and the LDs. Brown +offering the referendum would be the first step toward that. In the case of the Tories falling short of an outright majority +in seats, they will respond as though Brown is acting illegitimately, which he would not be by remaining as PM and +dealing with Clegg. Informed people are already talking of what might begin to unfold on Friday as ""Florida."" The Tories, +backed by the Murdoch press, will attempt to push Labour aside by force majeure—something that will not succeed +under those circumstances. The Murdochs are almost literally going crazy. James Murdoch and hiw wife stormed into +the offices of The Independent, not a Murdoch paper, when the paper endorsed the LDs and confronted the publisher, +screaming in the middle of the newsroom.

He is also a +principal in Salute Capital Management Ltd. Simon Johnson, the former chief economist at the International Monetary +Fund, is the co-author of ""13 Bankers.""The Greek ""rescue"" package announced last weekend is dramatic, unprecedented +and far from enough to stabilize the euro zone.The Greek government and the European Union leadership, prodded by +the International Monetary Fund, are finally becoming realistic about the dire economic situation in Greece. They have +abandoned previous rounds of optimistic forecasts and have now admitted to a profoundly worse situation. This new +program calls for ""fiscal adjustments"" — cuts to the fiscal deficit, mostly through spending cuts — totaling 11 percent of +gross domestic product in 2010, 4.3 percent in 2011, and 2 percent in 2012 and 2013. The total debt-to-G.D.P. ratio +peaks at 149 percent in 2012-13 before starting a gentle glide path back down to sanity.This new program is honest +enough to show why it is unlikely to succeed.Daniel Gros, an eminent economist on euro zone issues based in Brussels, +has argued that for each 1 percent of G.D.P. decline in Greek government spending, total demand in the country falls by +2.5 percent of G.D.P. If the government reduces spending by 15 percent of G.D.P. — the initial shock to demand could +be well over 30 percent of G.D.P.Obviously this simple rule does not work with such large numbers, but it illustrates that +Greece is likely to experience a very sharp recession — and there is substantial uncertainty around how bad the +economy will get. The program announced last weekend assumes Greek G.D.P. falls by 4 percent this year, then by +another 2.6 percent in 2011, before recovering to positive growth in 2012 and beyond.Such figures seem extremely +optimistic, particularly in the face of the civil unrest now sweeping Greece and the deep hostility expressed toward +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770137 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770137 Date: 08/31/2015 +Greece in some northern European policy circles.The pattern of growth is critical because, under this program, Greece +needs to grow out of its debt problem soon. Greece's debt-to-G.D.P. ratio will be a debilitating 145 percent at the end +of 2011.Now consider putting more realistic growth figures into the I.M.F. forecast for Greece's economy — e.g., with +G.D.P. declining 12 percent in 2011, then the debt-to-G.D.P. ratio may reach 155 percent. At these levels, with a 5 +percent real interest rate and no growth, the country needs a primary surplus at 8 percent of G.D.P. to keep the debt-to- +G.D.P. ratio stable. It will be nowhere near that level. The I.M.F. program has Greece running a primary budget deficit +of around 1 percent of G.D.P. in that year, and that assumes a path for Greek growth that can be regarded only as an +""upside scenario.""The politics of these implied budget surpluses remains brutal. Since most Greek debt is held abroad, +roughly 80 percent of the budget savings the Greek government makes go straight to Germans, French and other foreign +debt holders (mostly banks). If growth turns out poorly, will the Greeks be prepared for ever-tougher austerity to pay +the Germans? Even if everything goes well, Greek citizens seem unlikely to welcome this version of their ""new normal."" +Last week the European leadership panicked — very late in the day — when it realized that the euro zone itself was at +risk of a meltdown. If the euro zone proves unwilling to protect a member like Greece from default, then bond investors +will run from Portugal and Spain also — if you doubt this, study carefully the interlocking debt picture published +recently in The New York Times. Higher yields on government debt would have caused concerns about potential bank +runs in these nations, and then spread to more nations in Europe.When there is such a ""run,"" it is not clear where it +stops. In the hazy distance, Belgium, France, Austria and many others were potentially at risk. +Even the Germans cannot afford to bail out those nations.Slapped in the face by this ugly scenario, the Europeans +decided to throw everything they and the I.M.F. had at bailing out Greece. The program as announced has only a small +chance of preventing eventual Greek bankruptcy, but it may still slow or avert a dangerous spiral downward — and +enormous collateral damage — in the rest of Europe.The I.M.F. floated in some fashion an alternative scenario with a +debt restructuring, but this was rejected by both the European Union and the Greek authorities. This is not a surprise; +leading European policy makers are completely unprepared for broader problems that would follow a Greek +""restructuring,"" because markets would immediately mark down the debt (i.e., increase the yields) for Portugal, Spain, +Ireland and even Italy.The fear and panic in the face of this would be unparalleled in modern times: When the Greeks +pay only 50 percent on the face value of their debt, what should investors expect from the Portuguese and Spanish? It +all becomes arbitrary, including which countries are dragged down.Someone has to decide who should be defended and +at what cost, and the European structures are completely unsuited to this kind of tough decision-making under +pressure.ln the extreme downside scenario, Germany is the only obvious safe haven within the euro zone, so its +government bond yields would collapse while other governments face sharply rising yields. The euro zone would likely +not hold together.There is still a narrow escape path, without immediate debt default and the chaos that that would +produce:- +Talk down the euro — moving toward parity with the American dollar would help lift growth across the euroz one.. +As the euro falls, bond yields will rise on the euro zone periphery. This will create episodes of panic. Enough short-term +financing must be in place to support the rollover of government debt.. +Once the euro has fallen a great deal, announce the European Central Bank will support the euro at those levels (i.e., +prevent appreciation, with G-20 tacit agreement), and also support the peripheral euro zone nations viewed as solvent +by buying their bonds whenever markets are chaotic.- +At that stage, but not before, the euro zone leadership needs to push weaker governments to restructure. That will +include Greece and perhaps also Portugal. Hopefully, in this scenario Spain can muddle through.• +European banks should be recapitalized as necessary and have most of their management replaced. This is a massive +failure of euro groupthink — including most notably at the political level — but there is no question that bank executives +have not behaved responsibly in a long while and should be replaced en masse.To the extent possible, some of the +ensuing losses should be shared with bank creditors. But be careful what you wish for. The bankers are powerful for a +reason; they have built vital yet fragile structures at the heart of our economies.

He is also a +principal in Salute Capital Management Ltd. Simon Johnson, the former chief economist +at the International Monetary Fund, is the co-author of ""13 Bankers."" +The Greek ""rescue"" package announced last weekend is dramatic, unprecedented and far +from enough to stabilize the euro zone. +The Greek government and the European Union leadership, prodded by the International +Monetary Fund, are finally becoming realistic about the dire economic situation in +Greece. They have abandoned previous rounds of optimistic forecasts and have now +admitted to a profoundly worse situation. This new program calls for ""fiscal adjustments"" +— cuts to the fiscal deficit, mostly through spending cuts — totaling ii percent of gross +domestic product in 2010, 4.3 percent in 2011, and 2 percent in 2012 and 2013. The total +debt-to-G.D.P. ratio peaks at 149 percent in 2012-13 before starting a gentle glide path +back down to sanity. +This new program is honest enough to show why it is unlikely to succeed. +Daniel Gros, an eminent economist on euro zone issues based in Brussels, has argued that +for each 1 percent of G.D.P. decline in Greek government spending, total demand in the +country falls by 2.5 percent of G.D.P. If the government reduces spending by 15 percent of +G.D.P. — the initial shock to demand could be well over 30 percent of G.D.P. +Obviously this simple rule does not work with such large numbers, but it illustrates that +Greece is likely to experience a very sharp recession — and there is substantial uncertainty +around how bad the economy will get. The program announced last weekend assumes +Greek G.D.P. falls by 4 percent this year, then by another 2.6 percent in 2011, before +recovering to positive growth in 2012 and beyond. +Such figures seem extremely optimistic, particularly in the face of the civil unrest now +sweeping Greece and the deep hostility expressed toward Greece in some northern +European policy circles. +The pattern of growth is critical because, under this program, Greece needs to grow out of +its debt problem soon. Greece's debt-to-G.D.P. ratio will be a debilitating 145 percent at +the end of 2011. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770142 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770142 Date: 08/31/2015 +Now consider putting more realistic growth figures into the I.M.F. forecast for Greece's +economy — e.g., with G.D.P. declining 12 percent in 2011, then the debt-to-G.D.P. ratio +may reach 155 percent. At these levels, with a 5 percent real interest rate and no growth, +the country needs a primary surplus at 8 percent of G.D.P. to keep the debt-to-G.D.P. ratio +stable. It will be nowhere near that level. The I.M.F. program has Greece running a +primary budget deficit of around 1 percent of G.D.P. in that year, and that assumes a path +for Greek growth that can be regarded only as an ""upside scenario."" +The politics of these implied budget surpluses remains brutal. Since most Greek debt is +held abroad, roughly 80 percent of the budget savings the Greek government makes go +straight to Germans, French and other foreign debt holders (mostly banks). If growth +turns out poorly, will the Greeks be prepared for ever-tougher austerity to pay the +Germans? Even if everything goes well, Greek citizens seem unlikely to welcome this +version of their ""new normal."" +Last week the European leadership panicked — very late in the day — when it realized that +the euro zone itself was at risk of a meltdown. If the euro zone proves unwilling to protect +a member like Greece from default, then bond investors will run from Portugal and Spain +also — if you doubt this, study carefully the interlocking debt picture published recently in +The New York Times. Higher yields on government debt would have caused concerns +about potential bank runs in these nations, and then spread to more nations in Europe. +When there is such a ""run,"" it is not clear where it stops. In the hazy distance, Belgium, +France, Austria and many others were potentially at risk. Even the Germans cannot afford +to bail out those nations. +Slapped in the face by this ugly scenario, the Europeans decided to throw everything they +and the I.M.F. had at bailing out Greece. The program as announced has only a small +chance of preventing eventual Greek bankruptcy, but it may still slow or avert a dangerous +spiral downward — and enormous collateral damage — in the rest of Europe. +The I.M.F. floated in some fashion an alternative scenario with a debt restructuring, but +this was rejected by both the European Union and the Greek authorities. This is not a +surprise; leading European policy makers are completely unprepared for broader +problems that would follow a Greek ""restructuring,"" because markets would immediately +mark down the debt (i.e., increase the yields) for Portugal, Spain, Ireland and even Italy. +The fear and panic in the face of this would be unparalleled in modern times: When the +Greeks pay only 50 percent on the face value of their debt, what should investors expect +from the Portuguese and Spanish?

The result will +be unclear. It will not be clear, even perhaps by Friday afternoon. Today, the +combined polls show Cameron and the Conservatives ahead but not winning an +outright majority. The latest Guardian poll, out tomorrow, shown me by Alan +Rusbridger today, has the Tories falling short of a majority of seats. Even if +Cameron were to win an outright majority, Brown and Labour will attempt to make +a deal with Clegg and the Liberal Democrats. Brown remains as Prime Minister +unless the Tories win outright, which take a long time to determine. Labour and +the Lib-Dems will almost certainly gain about 60 percent of the vote, more or +less. Brown will reach out to Clegg to stay in power. The deal will be that +Brown will approve a referendum on proportional representation giving the LDs +much greater representationin future elections. That will spell the end forever +of the Tories ever coming to power. The Tories see the election in apocalyptic +terms—and they are not wrong. Brown's weakness heralds the sort of grand +progressive coalition/alliance that Tony imagined but was never able to attempt +between Labour and the LDs. Brown offering the referendum would be the first +step toward that. In the case of the Tories falling short of an outright +majority in seats, they will respond as though Brown is acting illegitimately, +which he would not be by remaining as PM and dealing with Clegg. Informed people +are already talking of what might begin to unfold on Friday as ""Florida."" The +Tories, backed by the Murdoch press, will attempt to push Labour aside by force +majeure—something that will not succeed under those circumstances.

""Something is being planned to disrupt the +referendum,"" I was told. Beknazarov told me he believed that, following the pattern of the last two revolutions, +they anticipated that there would be an attack on administrative offices in the south, following quickly within a +few days by attacks in Bishkek. Government leaders I spoke with over the weekend told me they now +recognize they had misassessed the data they had, that the Bakiyev plan was obviously to instigate inter-ethnic +violence. +Precisely what led to the tragedy in and around Osh is still unclear and requires careful investigation, but people +I have spoken with in Osh describe police and army leaders directing the pogroms, and they were able to +identify some of these individuals as persons close to the Bakiyevs. Moreover, the timing and some of the +specific descriptions of events support this thesis—Bakiyev was the only person who clearly had something to +gain from the violence. If that is so, then Bakiyev adopted an extremely cynical, indeed criminal strategy. His +objectives would have been to derail the referendum, demonstrate the weakness of the interim government, and +fuel calls for an iron-fisted central government through the resurrection of his presidency. The tactics used bear +comparison with those used by Slobodan Milosevie and Radovan Karad2ie as Yugoslavia disintegrated or by +the Soviet MVD in the waning days of the Soviet empire in programs like ""Operation Koltso."" If the +government's charges bear out, serious crimes were committed by the Bakiyev faction. +While Otunbayeva publicly states that order has been restored in the south and that foreign intervention is no +longer needed, I am not persuaded that this is what she actually thinks. She is anxious to build public +confidence in her government and its abilities. Confidentially she acknowledges that the interim government's +grip over the situation in the south is extremely weak and that the government does not feel it can necessarily +count on the local police and military there, whose loyalties are plainly divided. This in turn suggests that the +international community should give active consideration to both the humanitarian and the security dimensions +of the situation in the south. My sense remains that Otunbayeva would strongly welcome such an initiative. +2. Internal Workings of the Interim Government. The interim government verges on being completely +dysfunctional. It operates as a collection of individual fiefdoms, with leaders engaged in constant squabbles +over patronage appointments. Career civil service personnel report being terrorized and extorted. I spent the +better part of three days inside the current government headquarters on Staraya Ploshchod and was able to +directly observe primitive horse-trading, threats and counterthreats between key government functionaries, +sometimes in agitated voices. Roza Otunbayeva arid a handful of figures closest to her were exceptions in this +process—admonishing others about the unseemliness of their conduct, urging moderation and restraint. But +Otunbayeva also acknowledges that the limitations on her own authority and states that she ""has to put up with +it,"" at least for the moment. Three government members advised me during meetings of their intention to resign +before the end of the month in order to start running for parliament. Significantly, I sense sharp rifts within the +government—between Atembayev and Beknazarov, for instance, who could not refrain from criticizing one +another in my interviews with them, or between Sariyev and Beknazarov. +Only Otunbayeva (and to a lesser extent her close ally Elmira Ibraimova) appear to be the glue that holds things +together, commanding the respect of the other government members. I found that the admiration for +Otunbayeva was almost universal—she appears to be the only figure in the government emerging from the +interim period with an untarnished reputation. Still the special order under which she has assumed power as +""president of the interim government"" presents some clear problems for her authority. She has a fixed term into +2011, but she will have no democratic mandate. After the new government is formed, based on the +parliamentary elections, they will have democratic legitimacy and she will not—this sets up a situation in which +her authority may well be eclipsed or at least made more narrow. Still, all the members of the current +government recognize that she has essential skills that they do not—particularly her ability to conciliate and her +ability to reach out to other leaders on the international stage. +There is an expectation that the parliamentary elections will result in a weeding out of the government. The next +government is expected to be formed through a parliamentary coalition. But only two or perhaps three of the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770165 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770165 Date: 08/31/2015 +current seven factions will survive. Much of the bickering and instability in the current government is keyed to +the coming game of parliamentary moving chairs—there is an intense struggle now to secure personal loyalty +and funds to use in the parliamentary elections; the entire process has an aura of sink or swim about +it. Ironically the immediate prospect of parliamentary elections and the sense that they will be genuinely open +and fair thus contributes to the ineptness and near chaotic appearance of the current government. +3. Constitution and Referendum. Under the guidance of Tekebayev, the government put forward a proposed +new constitution, which it seeks to have confirmed through a referendum vote on June 27. The constitution +itself does shift the country further in the direction of a parliamentary democracy, and it contains unusual +protection for parliamentary minority factions. Government leaders told me that Kazakh president Nursultan +Nazarbayev had waded in on the question of the constitution directly, pressing them to retain a ""strong +president"" system. They say this was coupled with not-very-subtle threats, and that the frontier between +Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan remains closed, with harmful consequences for the Kyrgyz economy. A major +question exists about holding the referendum as scheduled. The events in the south have resulted in the mass +displacement of population and if held as planned, a large part of the population in the south would probably be +disenfranchised. However, government leaders say that their current problems all come back to legitimacy, and +they will not be able to form a government with democratic legitimacy without a new constitution and new +elections. Accordingly, they resist any further delays and are even contemplating moving the date of the +parliamentary election forward to the last week of August (it is now set for October 10). The crisis in the south +presents a severe dilemma in this regards, and it seems that this would have been Bakiyev's objective in +instigating it, if indeed he did. +4. Manas Transit Center. As expected, I discovered that the interim government is deeply fragmented on the +question of MTC. One faction headed by Otunbayeva favors a ""pragmatic solution"" to the base issue under +which it will be continued but placed on a more transparent basis in which the economic benefits to the +government are clear. Otunbayeva argues that the base can only be accepted under circumstances in which it +presents no friction for Kyrgyz-Russian relations; she seeks to have disputes surrounding fuel supply, for +instance, resolved directly between the United States and Russia. Another faction, headed by Beknazarov, takes +a more demagogic approach, denouncing the base and seeking its closing in internal meetings. Talking with +Beknazarov, I had the clear impression that his attitudes were entirely opportunistic—he thinks this will be a +good campaign issue to use on the hustings. He suggested rather strongly that he could accept a continued base +presence under the right circumstances and that he views threats to close the base as a sort of stick to use to +extort more money and other concessions from the Americans. In general, Beknazarov strikes me as hot- +headed and crass and an untrustworthy partner in any future discussions. Atembayev also has somewhat +demagogic impulses, though they are mild by comparison. Otunbayeva, the third and most senior member of +the government engaged on base issues, is the critical voice of reason in the process. My impression based on +discussions with numerous figures is that Otunbayeva's views currently hold sway. However, all the +government members are agreed that the economic deal struck by Bakiyev is unfavorable to the Kyrgyz state +and that the base must rest on transparent economic concessions and there can be no more under-the-table +dealings with political figures. +5. Resolving the Crisis in the South. I believe that two key points should be kept in mind when approaching +the humanitarian crisis that has emerged in the south. First, the crisis probably has its origins in a raw struggle +for power. The interim government's legitimacy deficit contributed to the problem, because it left the +government with weak tools to control the situation in the south. A long-term solution to the problem must +involve the creation of governments at the national (Bishkek) and regional (Osh, Djalalabad) levels that have an +essential modicum of democratic legitimacy. Delaying this process may only hasten the entire country's +continued desCent into chaos. This highlights the need to conduct free, fair and open elections as quickly as +possible. Second, the last thing the interim government needs is a ""Sophie's choice"" between the United States +and Russian Federation. International assistance needs to reflect a joint U.S.-Russian approach and showcase +U.S. and Russian leadership (not merely participation). With President Medvedev's visit to the White House +now on the horizon, this would be a good opportunity to establish joint sponsorship of an international +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770165 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770165 Date: 08/31/2015 +humanitarian initiative. Here, I believe, are the essential elements of a program that could achieve U.S.- +Russian co-sponsorship: +• An Appeal for Restraint: Although the instigation of the conflict appears clearly to rest with ethnic +Kyrgyz agitators, including a number in uniform and operating military equipment, at present both Uzbek and +Kyrgyz armed groups are involved in random shootings designed to reinforce perceptions of their group being +persecuted (rapes etc.) by another. Credible reports are suggesting that there has been political manipulation +(including payment of money to drug and other criminal gangs) aimed at fomenting violence. The attack on a +sports facility set up by a prominent Uzbek drug baron (murdered several years earlier) in Osh shortly before +the violence started also suggests that criminal gangs involved in drug transshipment had another motivation for +engaging in the violence. It may be that the violence was an initiative of the deposed president, but once it +began, it provided cover for numerous incidents of score-settling and criminal mischief. In these circumstances, +a strong appeal for restraint is appropriate and martial law rules including curfews may legitimately be imposed +by the interim government. An imprimatur of support from the international community would help establish +the authority of the interim government in this process. +• Exit Corridors for Civilians: Civilians who feel threatened must be allowed to leave the high risk +zones, and access of humanitarian aid, and creation of a safe zone for humanitarian operation should be +priorities at locations created to shelter them. The EU, OSCE and UN issued a statement on June 16 calling for +a humanitarian corridor in the southern regions of Osh and Jalalabad provinces, as well as of ensuring the +equitable distribution of humanitarian aid among those in need. The cooperation of the Uzbek government may +be particularly important in this process. +• Peacekeeping/Policing Operation: The international community should support special arrangements +with broad international legitimacy and participation to enhance peacekeeping and police operations in the +affected area. As I noted, even though Otunbayeva made a public statement on June 15 to the effect that foreign +military/police intervention was no longer needed, the situation remains precarious and in her confidential +discussions Otunbayeva acknowledges the benefits in confidence building that would emerge from an qualified, +professional and international presence in the region. Peacekeeping/policing operations should at a minimum +include security for designated sheltering areas for refugees and internally displaced persons and monitoring +operations in tandem with local police and military, to build confidence in their protective functions. +• Investigation of Events: a broad, credible, independent investigation should be undertaken into the +events and their origin. The investigation should be under the aegis of an international organization, such as the +Security Council or OSCE and it should be conducted by an individual of stature with strong credentials as a +fact-finder and prosecutor. The investigation should particularly take cognizance of accusations that crimes +against humanity were perpetrated, potentially including crimes of genocide. The involvement of persons +exercising ostensible government authority—policemen, military figures, leaders of the civil administration— +should be given special scrutiny in this process. The person commissioned to handle the investigation should be +specifically empowered to recommend criminal charges be brought against individuals identified in his +investigation—either by the criminal authorities of the Kyrgyz Republic or before an international body seized +of proper jurisdiction. +Effective Post-Conflict Reconstruction. UN authorities are estimating that as many as 450,000 persons +may have been displaced by the current violence. The devastation in central Osh and in numerous villages is +reported to be near total. There will be an intense housing shortage and a crisis with respect to food supply and +healthcare. The international community under United States and Russian leadership should provide generous +support to jumpstart the reconstruction process, prioritizing its assistance to benefit those most egregiously +injured by the violence. +• The Referendum/Parliamentary Elections. In view of the disruption and violence, the interim +government may well conclude that the constitutional referendum must be postponed. However, if it does not +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770165 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770165 Date: 08/31/2015 +postpone the referendum, then extraordinary measures should be taken to insure that internally displaced +persons and refugees are given an opportunity to vote—in both cases this will be a reemphasis of the bond of +citizenship and a promise of inclusion in the democratic process that will be critical to the resolution of the +crisis. The international community should also mobilize observers in connection with the parliamentary +elections to help assure that candidates have fair access to the ballot and to media, that campaigns are permitted +to proceed without unreasonable limitations and that voting occurs in a fair and free manner across the +country. Special attention in this process should be given to the affected areas to insure that refugees and IDPs +have a fair opportunity to vote and are freed from unreasonable limitations in the process. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770165 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5414,C05770166,NYT,H,PIR,170,2010-06-30T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0085/DOC_0C05770166/C05770166.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,NYT,,P1R ,,"Friday, May 7, 2010 9:03 AM",F-2014-20439,C05770168,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,Pls keep the updates coming!,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770168 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: H +Sent: Friday, May 7, 2010 9:03 AM +To: 'sbwhoeop +Subject: Re: Noon, state of play +Pls keep the updates coming! +Original Message +From: sbwhoeop +To: H +Sent: Fri May 07 07:22:31 2010 +Subject: Noon, state of play +Shaun is going to Downing St to meet with Gordon, Peter, and two others (Stuart Woods, Sue Nye, Gordon's aides) to +discuss what to do, will learn outcome as soon as meeting is over.

The participants were Gordon, Shaun, Peter, Alastair Campbell, and Ed Balls (who is +close to Gordon). +1. Gordon has made a maximum proposal to Clegg through intermediaries, including a +referendum on proportional representation, program, cabinet slots if Clegg wants them, or +not if he prefers to be perceived as above dealmaking. The offer is open, too, and can be +added to. Gordon is letting Cameron and Clegg have their conversation without going +public. Clegg in private is in something of a state of shock. He actually expected to win +about 125 seats—and finished at 57, losing 14 from what the Lib-Dems held. While +Clegg is out front he cannot make a deal on his own; he requires his party's backing. +Gordon and his people are in touch with people close to Clegg. Many of Clegg's senior +people will not support the deal that Cameron has proposed. Vincent Cable, Clegg's +number two, the shadow chancellor, is unhappy with the Tory deal. Clegg is therefore at +sea. Clegg's party base, moreover, would not approve a deal that did not represent a +""progressive"" position. Much of the Lib-Dem base is idealistic and subject to +disillusionment. +2. Gordon is doing whatever he can to hold on to power.

""You know what you'll see happening? +Nothing."" +'This is just one of those days when you want to throw up your hands and say, 'What in the world are we doing?'"" +Senator Claire McCaskill, the Missouri Democrat, said. +""It's unconscionable,"" Carl Levin, the senior Democratic senator from Michigan, said. ""The obstructionism has become +mindless."" +The Senators were in the Capitol, sunk into armchairs before the marble fireplace in the press lounge, which is directly +behind the Senate chamber. It was four-thirty on a Wednesday afternoon. McCaskill, in a matching maroon jacket and +top, looked exasperated; Levin glowered over his spectacles. +""Also, it's a dumb rule in itself,"" McCaskill said. ""It's time we started looking at some of these rules."" +She was referring to Senate Rule XXVI, Paragraph 5, which requires unanimous consent for committees and +subcommittees to hold hearings after two in the afternoon while the Senate is in session. Both Levin and McCaskill had +scheduled hearings that day for two-thirty. Typically, it wouldn't be difficult to get colleagues to waive the rule; a general +and an admiral had flown halfway around the world to appear before Levin's Armed Services Committee, and McCaskill's +Subcommittee on Contracting Oversight of the Homeland Security Committee was investigating the training of Afghan +police. But this was March 24th, the day after President Barack Obama signed the health-care-reform bill, in a victory +ceremony at the White House; it was also the day that the Senate was to vote on a reconciliation bill for health-care +reform, approved by the House three nights earlier, which would retroactively remove the new law's most embarrassing +sweetheart deals and complete the yearlong process of passing universal health care. Republicans, who had fought the +bill as a bloc, were in no mood to make things easy. +So, four hours earlier, when Levin went to the Senate floor and asked for consent to hold his hearing, Senator Richard +Burr, Republican of North Carolina, and a member of Levin's committee, had refused. ""I have no personal objection to +continuing,"" Burr said. But, he added, ""there is objection on our side of the aisle. Therefore, I would have to object."" +Burr had to object on behalf of his party because he was the only Republican in the chamber when Levin spoke. In +general, when senators give speeches on the floor, their colleagues aren't around, and the two or three who might be +present aren't listening. They're joking with aides, or e-mailing Twitter ideas to their press secretaries, or getting their first +look at a speech they're about to give before the eight unmanned cameras that provide a live feed to C-SPAN2. The +presiding officer of the Senate—freshmen of the majority party take rotating, hour-long shifts intended to introduce them to +the ways of the institution—sits in his chair on the dais, scanning his BlackBerry or reading a Times article about the +Senate. Michael Bennet, a freshman Democrat from Colorado, said, ""Sit and watch us for seven days—just watch the +floor. You know what you'll see happening? Nothing. When I'm in the chair, I sit there thinking, I wonder what they're +doing in China right now?"" +Between speeches, there are quorum calls, time killers in which a Senate clerk calls the roll at the rate of one name every +few minutes. The press gallery, above the dais, is typically deserted, as journalists prefer to hunker down in the press +lounge, surfing the Web for analysis of current Senate negotiations; television screens alert them if something of interest +actually happens in the chamber. The only people who pay attention to a speech are the Senate stenographers. On this +afternoon, two portly bald men in suits stood facing the speaker from a few feet away, tapping at the transcription +machines, which resembled nineteenth-century cash registers, slung around their necks. The Senate chamber is an +intimate room where men and women go to talk to themselves for the record. +Like many other aspects of senatorial procedure, Rule XXVI, Paragraph 5 is a relic from the days when senators had to +hover around their desks to know what was happening on the floor during the main afternoon debate. (The desks, some +built as long ago as 1819, are mahogany, and their lids lift up, like those in an old schoolhouse; the desks of the Majority +and Minority Leader are still equipped with brass spittoons.) In the press lounge, McCaskill said, with light sarcasm, +""Somebody told me the rule is to make sure people pay attention to what's happening on the floor during debate and not +be distracted by committee work. Clearly, it's an old rule."" +The Republicans had turned this old rule into a new means of obstruction. There would be no hearings that afternoon; the +general and the admiral would have to come back another day. Like investment bankers on Wall Street, senators these +days direct much of their creative energy toward the manipulation of arcane rules and loopholes, scoring short-term +successes while magnifying their institution's broader dysfunction. +Around five o'clock, the chamber began to fill, as the reconciliation bill came up for a vote; there were twenty-three +amendments pending, all from Republicans, and perhaps many more to come. Ordinarily, debate and voting on an +amendment might take two legislative days, but under the rules of the reconciliation bill the senators were to dispatch the +amendments one after another, as in a hot-dog-eating contest, with a minute of debate for each side. The goal was to +finish the bill by the end of the evening, so that senators wouldn't miss a day of their spring recess—apparently, the only +thing worse than a government takeover of the health-care system. The usual longueurs of the Senate, where forty +minutes can tick away on the antique clock above the rear double doors without a word's being spoken, were about to +yield to a frenzy. Harry Reid, the Majority Leader, from Nevada, had predicted that the process, known as Vote-O-Rama, +would go past two in the morning, and had warned senators to stay close to the chamber. +Max Baucus, of Montana, the manager of the bill for the Democrats, rose and said, ""This is the first time in recent memory +that a reconciliation bill has all the amendments on one side only. These are clearly amendments designed to kill the +reconciliation and, therefore, kill health-care reform. So I very much hope that all of these amendments are defeated."" +Tall, gaunt Judd Gregg, of New Hampshire, the bill's Republican manager, took the floor. ""The position on the other side +of the aisle is: no amendments allowed, even if they are good,"" he said. Indignation rouged his cheeks, and his voice rose +half an octave. ""Obviously, they presume the Republican Party is an inconvenience. The democratic process is an +inconvenience. It also appears, considering the opposition to this out in America, that the American people are an +inconvenience."" +The Senate chamber is laid out in four concentric semicircles, with adjacent desks almost touching on the crowded +Democratic side, and the desks of the much smaller Republican minority spaced loosely apart. The design is meant to +emphasize the senators' unity. But Baucus and Gregg avoided eye contact across the six feet of aisle that now divides the +chamber into two constantly warring factions. Senators are required, by custom, to speak of one another in the third +person, directing their anger and sarcasm through whichever poor freshman happens to be the presiding officer at the +moment. Rule XIX, Paragraphs 2 and 3—one of the original rules drawn from Thomas Jefferson's ""Manual of +Parliamentary Practice""—bars senators from imputing unworthy conduct or motives to another senator, and from insulting +any senator's state. But there is no rule against finger-wagging, and Baucus wagged his at Gregg while shouting at Al +Franken, of Minnesota, who had started a shift in the presiding officer's chair: ""Mr. President, make no mistake, the intent +of every single one of the amendments offered on the other side of the aisle is to kill health-care reform. . . . A senator on +the other side of the aisle stood up and said that this is hopefully the President's Waterloo. They want to kill health-care +reform!"" +The voice of Stuart Smalley filled the chamber: ""The time of the senator has expired."" +For the next nine hours, the chamber became the stage of a theatrical whose ending, like almost everything that happens +on the Senate floor, was known in advance to all. The Republican goal in Vote-O-Rama was to embarrass the Democrats +while appearing to suggest useful changes; the Democratic goal was to prevent any change to the bill, so that it wouldn't +have to return to the House, where it might be voted down. Several of the Republican amendments had been designed to +make Democrats look hypocritical, by forcing them to vote against policies that the Party typically supports. One +amendment, for example, declared that the health-care bill could not be linked to a tax hike on individuals making less +than two hundred thousand dollars a year. Other amendments were more nakedly partisan, and outlandish. David Vitter, a +Louisiana Republican, proposed an amendment that repealed the entire law. Senator Tom Coburn, a Republican +obstetrician from Oklahoma, introduced an amendment to insure that veterans diagnosed with mental illness would not be +denied the right to own firearms, and another to prevent ""convicted child molesters, rapists, and sex offenders"" from +buying erectile-dysfunction drugs with taxpayer funds. Coburn got through the minute he was allotted to explain his Viagra +amendment without cracking a smile. ""This is not a game amendment,"" he insisted. ""It actually saves money."" +So many senators snickered that the presiding officer banged his gavel for order. +""The amendment offered by the senator from Oklahoma makes a mockery of this Senate,"" Baucus declared. ""It is a crass +political stunt aimed at making thirty-second commercials, not public policy."" Baucus asked for the yeas and nays, and a +clerk called the roll at a ragged pace. ""Mr. Coburn, Mr. Cochran, Ms. Collins."" Thirty-five-second pause. ""Mr. Conrad, Mr. +Corker."" Ten seconds. ""Mr. Cornyn."" Senators pay no attention to the sound of their name; they cast votes when they're +so inclined—wandering in late, shuffling down the chamber's gentle blue-carpeted steps to the swarm of colleagues +milling about in the well, where the clerks sit at a table, and then holding a finger up or down. At one point, John McCain— +now just one of a hundred senators and struggling to stay in office—spent half a minute waving stiff-armed, trying to catch +the eye of a clerk so he could cast his vote. In the end, two Democrats—Evan Bayh, of Indiana, and Ben Nelson, of +Nebraska—joined the Republicans in opposing Viagra for sex offenders. The amendment was defeated. +The carpeting in the chamber absorbs voices, and during the long night one of the few that rose above the muffled drone +was that of Charles Schumer, who said to Gregg, ""Get to work! Stop screwing around with health care!"" Sporadically, a +sharp cackle emanated from Al Franken, who wandered the chamber, looking for Republicans he could charm into +laughing. Observed from the press gallery, the senators in their confined space began to resemble zoo animals—Levin a +shambling brown bear, John Thune a loping gazelle, Jim Bunning a maddened grizzly. Each one displayed a limited set of +behaviors: in conversations, John Kerry planted himself a few inches away, loomed, and clamped his hands down on a +colleague's shoulders. Joe Lieberman patted everyone on the back. It became clear which senators were loners (Russ +Feingold, Daniel Akaka) and which were social (Blanche Lincoln, Lindsey Graham); which senators were important (Dick +Durbin, Jon Kyl) and which were ignored (Bayh, Bunning). +Past midnight, Durbin slumped at his desk, one hand over his face, yawning painfully. Susan Collins was going through +her mail. Twenty-three amendments had been voted down, and the Republicans were proposing a fresh batch. ""Can we +get some order?"" Bunning growled, before he introduced a proposal to let senior citizens opt out of parts of Medicare. It +was the only amendment that any Republicans joined the Democrats to defeat. +Harry Reid controls the Senate's schedule, but Mitch McConnell, of Kentucky, who is the Minority Leader, can object. +Since nearly everything in the Senate depends on unanimous consent, the main business of the place is a continuous +negotiation between these two supremely unsentimental men. That night, they played a game of chicken: McConnell, +unsmiling, his eyes riveted ahead, held out the prospect of dozens more amendments; Reid, a former boxer, was +hunched and mumbling, playing rope-a-dope, vowing to fend off amendments all night. The two leaders left the chamber +to confer privately about how to proceed. Inside, the atmosphere of a slumber party set in. Debbie Stabenow, of Michigan, +her hand across her heart, sang a sentimental duet with Robert Menendez, of New Jersey. Exhaustion momentarily +eased the partisan divide. Claire McCaskill sat down beside Tom Coburn, held up an erect finger in his face, as if casting +her Viagra vote, then let it go limp. Coburn could be heard to joke, ""The longest it lasted was thirty seconds."" +At two-forty-five in the morning, Reid suddenly declared the Senate adjourned. The Senate parliamentarian had just found +two small violations of the reconciliation rules, meaning that in the morning, despite the Democrats' efforts, the bill would +go back to the House for another vote. At the bang of the gavel, the senators fled. In the parking lot, on the Capitol's +northeast side, McCaskill climbed into her S.U.V. Levin, in a cramped sedan, was chauffeured off into the empty streets. +On a marble ledge near the exit, Arlen Specter sat alone, a ghost in a brown suit, staring straight ahead, as if waiting for +someone to take him away. +The Senate reconvened at 9:45 A.M. Around two in the afternoon, the members gathered for the final vote, and the +Democrats were giddy. Tom Harkin, of Iowa, and Christopher Dodd, of Connecticut, even exchanged a hug. ""Everyone's +tired,"" Reid declared before the final vote. ""This legislative fight is one for the record books."" He was so fatigued that he +initially voted the wrong way. Lindsey Graham came in late, delaying the tally by ten minutes. ""Way to go, Lindsey, way to +stretch it out,"" Sam Brownback told him. A few Republicans lingered and took in the moment, like players on the losing +team at the end of the World Series. After a year of work, health-care reform had passed, 56-43, and for a moment the +chamber's Tweeting pygmies had become legislative giants. +The Senate is often referred to as ""the world's greatest deliberative body."" Jeff Merkley, a freshman Democrat from +Oregon, said, ""That is a phrase that I wince each time I hear it, because the amount of real deliberation, in terms of +exchange of ideas, is so limited."" Merkley could remember witnessing only one moment of floor debate between a +Republican and a Democrat. ""The memory I took with me was: 'Wow, that's unusual—there's a conversation occurring in +which they're making point and counterpoint and challenging each other.' And yet nobody else was in the chamber."" +Tom Udall, a freshman Democrat from New Mexico, could not recall seeing a senator change another senator's mind. +""You would really need a good hour or two of extensive exchange among folks that really know the issue,"" he said. +Instead, a senator typically gives ""a prepared speech that's already been vetted through the staff. Then another guy gets +up and gives a speech on a completely different subject."" From time to time, senators of the same party carry on a +colloquy—""I would be interested in the distinguished senator from Iowa's view of the other side's Medicare Advantage +plan""—that has been scripted in advance by aides. +While senators are in Washington, their days are scheduled in fifteen-minute intervals: staff meetings, interviews, visits +from lobbyists and home-state groups, caucus lunches, committee hearings, briefing books, floor votes, fund-raisers. +Each senator sits on three or four committees and even more subcommittees, most of which meet during the same +morning hours, which helps explain why committee tables are often nearly empty, and why senators drifting into a hearing +can barely sustain a coherent line of questioning. All this activity is crammed into a three-day week, for it's an unwritten +rule of the modern Senate that votes are almost never scheduled for Mondays or Fridays, which allows senators to spend +four days away from the capital. Senators now, unlike those of several decades ago, often keep their families in their +home states, where they return most weekends, even if it's to Alaska or Idaho—a concession to endless fund-raising, and +to the populist anti-Washington mood of recent years. (When Newt Gingrich became Speaker of the House, in 1995, he +told new Republican members not to move their families to the capital.) Tom Daschle, the former Democratic leader, said, +""When we scheduled votes, the only day where we could be absolutely certain we had all one hundred senators there +was Wednesday afternoon."" +Nothing dominates the life of a senator more than raising money. Tom Harkin, the Iowa Democrat, said, ""Of any free time +you have, I would say fifty per cent, maybe even more,"" is spent on fund-raising. In addition to financing their own +campaigns, senators participate at least once a week in the Power Hour, during which they make obligatory calls on +behalf of the Party (in the Democrats' case, from a three-story town house across Constitution Avenue from the Senate +office buildings, since they're barred from using their own offices to raise money). Lamar Alexander, the Tennessee +Republican, insisted that the donations are never sufficient to actually buy a vote, but he added, ""It sucks up time that a +senator ought to be spending getting to know other senators, working on issues."" +In June, 2009, top aides to Max Baucus, whose Finance Committee was negotiating the health-care-reform bill, took time +to meet with two health-care lobbyists, who themselves were former Baucus aides. (Baucus received more than a million +dollars from the industry for his 2008 reelection campaign.) That month, according to Common Cause, industry groups +were spending $1.4 million a day to lobby members of Congress. Udall, speaking of the corrosive effect of fund-raising +and lobbying, said, ""People know it in their heart—they know this place is dominated by special interests. The over-all bills +are not nearly as bold because of the influence of money."" +Deschle sketched a portrait of the contemporary senator who is too busy to think: ""Sometimes, you're dialling for dollars, +you get the call, you've got to get over to vote, you've got fifteen minutes. You don't have a clue what's on the floor, your +staff is whispering in your ears, you're running onto the floor, then you check with your leader—you double check—but, +just to make triple sure, there's a little sheet of paper on the clerk's table: The leader recommends an aye vote, or a no +vote. So you've got all these checks just to make sure you don't screw up, but even then you screw up sometimes. But, if +you're ever pressed, 'Why did you vote that way?'—you just walk out thinking, Oh, my God, I hope nobody asks, because +I don't have a clue."" +Aides, at the elbows of senators as they shuttle between their offices and the Capitol, have proliferated over the past few +decades, and they play a crucial role. Lamar Alexander, who has an office of fifty people, pointed out that staff members, +who are younger and often more ideological than their bosses, and less dependent on institutional relationships, tend to +push senators toward extremes. Often, aides are the main actors behind proposed legislation—writing bills, negotiating +the details—while the senator is relegated to repeating talking points on Fox' or MSNBC. +One day in his office, Udall picked up some tabloids from his coffee table and waved them at me. ""You know about all +these rags that cover the Hill, right?"" he said, smiling. There are five dailies—Politico, The Hill, Roll Call, Con gressDaily, +and CQ Today—all of which emphasize insider conflict. The senators, who like to complain about the trivializing effect of +the ""24/7 media,"" provide no end of fodder for it. The news of the day was what Udall called a ""dust-up"" between Scott +Brown, the freshman Massachusetts Republican, and a staffer for Jim DeMint, the arch-conservative from South Carolina; +the staffer had Tweeted that Brown was voting too often with the Democrats, leading Brown to confront DeMint on the +Senate floor over this supposed breach of protocol. Bloggers carry so much influence that many senators have a young +press aide dedicated to the care and feeding of online media. News about, by, and for a tiny kingdom of political +obsessives dominates the attention of senators and staff, while stories that might affect their constituents go unreported +because their home-state papers can no longer afford to have bureaus in Washington. Dodd, who came to the Senate in +1981 and will leave next January, told me, ""I used to have eleven Connecticut newspaper reporters who covered me on a +daily basis. I don't have one today, and haven't had one in a number of years. Instead, D.C. publications only see me +through the prism of conflict."" Lamar Alexander described the effect as ""this instant radicalizing of positions to the left and +the right."" +Both Alexander and Gregg said that the Senate had been further polarized by the rising number of senators—now nearly +fifty—who come from the House, rather than from governorships or other positions where bipartisan coOperation is still +permissible. ""A lot of senators don't understand the history or tradition of the institution,"" Gregg said. ""Substantive, +thoughtful, moderate discussion is pushed aside."" +Encumbered with aides, prodded by hourly jolts from electronic media, racing from the hearing room to the caucus lunch +to the Power Hour to the airport, senators no longer have the time, or perhaps the inclination, to get to know one +another—least of all, members of the other party. Friendships across party lines are more likely among the few spouses +who live in Washington. After Udall joined the Senate, last year, he was invited to dinner by Alexander, because Jill +Cooper Udall and Honey Alexander had become friends through a women's social club. It remains the only time Udall has +set foot in the house of a Republican senator. (Vice-President Joe Biden, in his autobiography, recalls that, in the +seventies, a bipartisan group of senators and their wives hosted a monthly dinner: ""In those days Democrats and +Republicans actually enjoyed each other's company."") When I asked Chris Dodd how well he knew, for example, Jim +DeMint, Dodd said, ""Not at all. Whereas Jesse Helms and I knew each other pretty well."" He repeated something that Jon +Kyl, the Republican whip, from Arizona, had recently said to him: ""There's no trust."" Dodd, whose father was a senator, +went on, ""That's really all there is—this place really operates on that. I don't think anyone would argue with that +conclusion. And if that's missing. +There remains a veneer—badly chipped—of comity. On the floor, senators still refer to members of the opposing party as +""friends."" Gregg described Kent Conrad, a Democrat from North Dakota, as ""one of my best friends in the Senate,"" and +both Gregg and Alexander ticked off examples of little-known legislation that they are currently working on with +Democrats; Alexander and Ben Cardin, of Maryland, have introduced a bill to ban mountaintop-removal coal mining. Udall +noted that he had become friendly with John McCain when they went on a congressional tour of Iraq. But opportunities to +bond are rare. On the first floor of the Capitol, there is a private dining room for senators, the ""inner sanctum,"" where +Republicans and Democrats used to have lunch (at separate tables, but in the same room). In the seventies, old bulls +such as James Eastland, Hubert Humphrey, and Jacob Javits held court there; later, Daniel Patrick Moynihan did. ""You +learned, and also you found out what was going on,"" Dodd said, adding, ""It's awfully difficult to say crappy things about +someone that you just had lunch with."" These days, the inner sanctum is nearly always empty. Senators eat lunch in their +respective caucus rooms with members of their party, or else ""downtown,"" which means asking donors for money over +steak and potatoes at the Monocle or Charlie Palmer. The tradition of the ""caucus lunch"" was instituted by Republicans in +the fifties, when they lost their majority; Democrats, after losing theirs in 1980, followed suit. Caucus lunches work +members on both sides into a state of pep-rally fervor. During one recent Republican lunch, Jim Bunning referred to Harry +Reid as an idiot. ""At least he had the courtesy to do it behind closed doors,"" Alexander joked, adding, ""We spend most of +our time in team meetings deciding what we're going to do to each other."" +In 2007, Alexander and Lieberman started a series of bipartisan Tuesday breakfasts. ""They kind of dwindled off during the +health-care debate,"" Alexander said. Udall has tried to revive the Wednesday inner-sanctum lunch. For the first few +months, only Democrats attended. Then, one Wednesday in May, Susan Collins, the Maine Republican, showed up, +joking nervously about being a turncoat; to protect her reputation, her presence was kept secret. +These efforts at resurrecting dead customs are as self-conscious and, probably, as doomed as the get-togethers of lovers +who try to stay friends after a breakup. Ira Shapiro, a Washington lawyer and a former aide to Senator Gaylord Nelson, of +Wisconsin, put it this way: ""Why would they want to have lunch together when they hate each other?"" +The upper chamber of Congress was a constitutional compromise between popular sovereignty and state sovereignty. +The Senate was designed, as part of the separation of powers, to check the impulses of the House and the popular will. +For some Federalists, it also had an aristocratic purpose: to collect knowledge and experience, and to guard against a +levelling spirit that might overtake the majority. When Alexis de Tocqueville visited the Senate, in 1832, he was deeply +impressed by the quality of its members: ""They represent only the lofty thoughts [of the nation] and the generous instincts +animating it, not the petty passions."" But he also recognized that ""a minority of the nation dominating the Senate could +completely paralyze the will of the majority represented in the other house, and that is contrary to the spirit of +constitutional government."" As long as the Senate continued to be composed of America's most talented statesmen, +Tocqueville implied, it would restrain its own anti-democratic potential. +Robert A. Caro, in ""Master of the Senate,"" the third volume of his life of Lyndon Johnson, argues that after the Civil War • +the Senate was captured by wealthy and sectional interests, ending a more high-minded age when Daniel Webster, Henry +Clay, and John C. Calhoun engaged in brilliant debate. Aside from spasms of legislation at the start of the Presidencies of +Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt, Caro writes, the Senate remained controlled by an alliance of Southern racists +and Republican corporate shills, and was ""the dam against which the waves of social reform dashed themselves in vain— +the chief obstructive force in the federal government."" By the fifties, the Senate had become far more conservative than +the public. And not just conservative: William S. White, in his 1956 book ""Citadel,"" called the Senate ""to a most peculiar +degree, a Southern Institution . . . growing at the heart of this ostensibly national assembly"" and ""the only place in the +country where the South did not lose the war."" +By mid-century, it had become a journalistic cliché to call the Senate broken. Otto Preminger's 1962 film ""Advise and +Consent,"" based on the novel by Allen Drury, is about the Senate of that period, and it presents Democrats and +Republicans as equally amoral, calculating, and power-hungry. But the institution, as depicted by Preminger, still works, in +its way: though the deals stink, they get cut. The senators know their colleagues and the rules; they back-stab one +another in the lunchroom, then drink cocktails and play cards on Saturday nights. There are no lobbyists, no fund-raisers, +no media, no constituents—only senators' intricate relations with one another. The Senate is its own world. +In a memoir, Johnson's longtime aide Harry McPherson recalls learning that the Senate's ""famous 'club' atmosphere is +based on the members' mutual acceptance of responsibility and concentration on the tasks at hand. . . . They thrust hard +at one another in debate over serious matters,"" but, he writes, ""understanding and accommodation in the ordinary course +of the Senate day was essential to sanity."" Johnson, the most powerful Majority Leader in history, bent the Senate to his +will and forced it to become more efficient. He saw his colleagues as either ""whales""—the heavyweight chairmen who +negotiated legislation—or ""minnows,"" the followers who went along with the brokered deals. And when, in 1958, a +formidable new class of liberal Democrats entered the Senate—including Edmund Muskie, Eugene McCarthy, and Philip +Hart—the legislative machinery began to produce reform. Michael Janeway, the author of ""The Fall of the House of +Roosevelt,"" worked as a summer staff member between 1958 and 1962. ""They used to talk to each other—that's my most +vivid recollection,"" he said. ""If Wayne Morse talked of constitutional law on the floor, the Southerners would come in to +hear him. The same with Hubert Humphrey on farm policy. My strongest impression was of it being a deliberative body, +drawing each other out—sometimes pedantically."" Senators who ran for office in order to work on foreign policy, social +welfare, or urbanization had to win credibility with the whales. ""But if you wanted to do something there was a mechanism +by which you could do it,"" Janeway said. +In the sixties and seventies, Southern-conservative control was broken by a coalition of left-of-center Democrats and +moderate Republicans. Donald Ritchie, the Senate historian, who started working there in 1976, described the Senate of +those decades as ""a bipartisan liberal institution."" The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was written largely out of the office of the +Republican Minority Leader, Everett Dirksen. Every major initiative—voting rights, open housing, environmental law, +campaign reform—enjoyed bipartisan support. In the rare event of a filibuster, the motion to end debate was often filed +jointly by leaders of both parties. When Medicare—that government takeover of health care for the elderly—was passed, +in 1965, it won 70-24. +The Senate's momentum nurtured superb talent: William Fulbright, Everett Dirksen, Henry Jackson, Frank Church, +Howard Baker. In 1969, George McGovern chaired a select committee on hunger that actually held bipartisan ""field +hearings"" in poor regions, calling witnesses in migrant labor camps, and then, with Bob Dole's indispensable support, +greatly expanded the food-stamp program. The intensity of senatorial purpose in those years must strike today's +legislators as profoundly humbling. After Joe Biden came to the Senate, in 1973, Hubert Humphrey took him aside and +said, ""You have to pick an issue that becomes yours. That's how you attract your colleagues to follow you, Joe. That's +how you demonstrate your bona fides. Don't be a gadfly."" Humphrey's career advice: ""You should become Mr. Housing. +Housing is the future."" +The Senate's modern decline began in 1978, with the election of a new wave of anti-government conservatives, and +accelerated as Republicans became the majority in 1981. ""The Quayle generation came in, and there were a number of +people just like Dan—same generation, same hair style, same beliefs,"" Gary Hart, the Colorado Democrat, recalled. ""They +were harder-line. They weren't there to get along with Democrats. But they look accommodationist compared to +Republicans in the Senate today."" Church, McGovern, Javits, and Birch Bayh were gone. Ira Shapiro, the former aide, +who is writing a book about the Senate of the sixties and seventies, said, ""It was a huge loss of the most experienced, +accomplished senators being replaced by neophytes. All of a sudden, in 1981, more than half the Senate had been there +less than six years."" He added, ""The shattering of the great Senate has long-term effects that keep showing up. It gets +worse over time, but it just never gets restored. There was a phrase I heard from Helms and the younger ones: 'Others +didn't want to make waves; I wanted to drain the swamp.'"" +After C-SPAN went on the air, in 1979, the cozy atmosphere that encouraged both deliberation and back-room deals +began to yield to transparency and, with it, posturing. ""So Damn Much Money,"" a recent book by the Washington Post +reporter Robert G. Kaiser, traces the spectacular rise of Washington lobbying to the same period. Liberal Republicans +began to disappear, and as Southern Democrats died out they were replaced by conservative Republicans. Bipartisan +coalitions on both wings of the Senate vanished. The institutionalist gave way to the free agent, who controlled his own +fund-raising apparatus and media presence, and whose electoral base was a patchwork of single-issue groups. Members +of both parties—Howard Metzenbaum, the Ohio Democrat; Jesse Helms, the North Carolina Republican—took to +regularly using the Senate's rules to tie up business for narrowly ideological reasons. The number of filibusters shot up in +the eighties and continued to rise in the following decades, as the parties kept alternating control of the Senate and +escalating a procedural arms race, routinely blocking the confirmation of executive and judicial appointees. Democrats +filibustered Republican nominees to the bench; then Republicans threatened to ban the filibuster in such cases—the so- +called ""nuclear option."" Older members were perturbed when, in 2004, the Republican Majority Leader, Bill Frist, went to +South Dakota to campaign against the Democratic Minority Leader, Tom Daschle (who went on to lose). A few years +earlier, such an action would have been unthinkable. +The weakened institution could no longer withstand pressures from outside its walls; as money and cameras rushed in, +independent minds fell more and more in line with the partisans. Rough parity between the two parties meant that every +election had the potential to make or break a majority, crushing the incentive to cooperate across the aisle. The Senate, +no longer a fount of ideas, became a backwater of the U.S. government. During the Clinton years, the main action was +between the White House and the Gingrich House of Representatives; during the Bush years, the Republican Senate +majority abdicated the oversight role that could have placed a vital check on executive power. +Norman Ornstein, a congressional expert at the American Enterprise Institute, said that the Senate has increasingly +become populated by ""ideologues and charlatans."" He went on, ""When we do get good people who come in, they very +quickly get ground up by the dynamic and the culture of the parties. And once you get there, look at what it takes to stay +there."" He spoke of Charles Grassley, the Iowa Republican, who, nearing the end of his career, spent much of last year +working closely with his friend Max Baucus on the health-care bill. Then, in August, Grassley went home and, faced with +angry Republican voters and the prospect of a primary challenge from the right, started warning about ""pulling the plug on +Grandma."" Ornstein added that similar pressures had led John McCain to begin ""altering his behavior and abandoning +every issue, including campaign-finance reform."" +One morning in April, I visited Harry McPherson, the former L.B.J. aide, at the offices of the legal and lobbying firm D. L. +A. Piper, in downtown Washington. McPherson, who is eighty, had on his desk the firm's spiral-bound directory for the +111th Congress. I asked him who, in Johnsonian terms, were the whales of the current Senate. McPherson ran his finger +down the list of senators. He did it again. ""I'm trying here, looking for a remote descendant. Judas Priest, look at this."" He +was stumped. ""Well, I see some good people, I see some people who are going to get coalitions together over time."" He +put the directory aside. ""I'm just having the damnedest time."" +Down the hall from McPherson's office was that of Mel Martinez, a former Republican senator from Florida; he was hired +last year, two weeks after resigning his Senate seat without completing his first term. (He has since moved on to +JPMorgan Chase.) William Cohen, the former Maine senator and Secretary of Defense, has an office downstairs. Tom +Daschle works at D. L. A. Piper; his predecessor as Democratic leader, George Mitchell, was the firm's chairman, until +President Obama appointed him to be his Middle East envoy. One feature of the diminished U.S. senator is the ease with +which he moves from legislating to lobbying. Between 1998 and 2004, half the senators who left office became lobbyists. +In 2007, Trent Lott, a Republican leader in the Senate less than a year into his fourth term, abruptly resigned and formed +a lobbying firm with former Senator John Breaux, just a few weeks before a new law took effect requiring a two-year +waiting period between serving and lobbying. +When you spend your days at the Senate, it's easy to forget about everything else. The House of Representatives seems +miles away (it's just down a corridor and across the rotunda), the White House is another country, and actual foreign +countries are unimaginable. The place remains insular, labyrinthine, and opaque—even physically. Senators commute +thirty seconds between their offices and the chamber by electric subway cars that run along a tunnel under Constitution +Avenue. Many signs are misleading or obsolete (the gilded lettering over the visitors' gallery says ""Men's Gallery""), and +the Capitol is filled with secret passageways and spare rooms, called hideaways, doled out according to seniority, where +senators can read, drink, doze, and wait for the buzzer announcing an imminent vote. The most pervasive authority over +the institution is not the Constitution or the Bible but, rather, an impenetrable sixteen-hundred-page tome, by Floyd M. +Riddick, called ""Senate Procedure: Precedents and Practices,"" which only the late Robert Byrd, of West Virginia, was +known to have read in its entirety. The procedures are so abstruse that a parliamentarian must sit below the presiding +officer and, essentially, tell him or her what to say. +After half a century, the picture given by Preminger's ""Advise and Consent"" is still faintly visible. ""The Senate, by its +nature, is a place where consensus reigns and personal relationships are paramount,"" Lamar Alexander said. ""And that's +not changed."" Which is exactly the problem: it's a self-governing body that depends on the reasonableness of its +members to function. Sarah Binder, a congressional scholar at George Washington University, said, ""To have a chamber +that rules by unanimous consent—it's nutty! Especially when you've got Jim Bunning to please."" +In 2006 and 2008, sixteen Democrats entered the Senate, giving the Party its current majority of fifty-nine to forty-one +(counting two independents). They include moderates, like Jon Tester, of Montana, and Mark Warner, of Virginia; liberals, +like Sherrod Brown, of Ohio, and Sheldon Whitehouse, of Rhode Island; policy specialists, like Amy Klobuchar, of +Minnesota, and Jeff Merkley; and iconoclasts, like Claire McCaskill. Their interest in legislating has won the admiration of +senior senators. ""If they can stay, I think they'll be terrific,"" Chris Dodd said. ""My worry is they won't stay. Because it's not +productive."" +The Democratic class of 2008 arrived with President Obama, expecting to usher in 6 dynamic new era. Instead, their +young Senate careers have passed in a daily slog of threatened filibusters and ""secret holds""—when a senator +anonymously objects to bringing an appointment up for a vote, which requires unanimous consent. On April 20th, Claire +McCaskill took the trouble to read off the names of fifty-six Obama nominees languishing in the limbo of secret holds, and +Jon Kyl objected to every one of them. Just getting a bill to the floor for debate can require days of tactical gamesmanship +between the party leaders. There were times when Warner wondered if anyone had ever quit in the first year. Michael +Bennet said, ""We find ourselves at a moment in our history when the questions are huge ones, not small ones, and where +things have been put off for a really long period of time."" He mentioned the national debt, energy policy, and the financial +crisis. ""Yet you have a Senate that's designed not to advance change but to slow it."" +We were talking in his hideaway, a windowless room in the Capitol basement, which had a mini-fridge stocked with bottled +water, black leatherette furniture circa 1962, and a TV tuned to C-SPAN2 on mute; Senator Kyl's mouth was moving. +Bennet, the former superintendent of schools in Denver, was appointed to a vacant seat in 2009, and already has to +defend it this year. He described the Senate with the dry bluntness of an outsider who hasn't allowed himself to grow too +attached. Bennet repeated a story he had heard. about a new congressman giving his maiden speech: ""And then some +more veteran guy came over and said, 'Son, you're talking like this place is on the level. It's not on the level.' As the fifteen +months or so have gone by that I've been here, the less on the level it seems."" +Earlier this year, the Senate's procedural absurdities became national news twice in one month. On February 4th, +Con gressDaily reported that Richard Shelby, an Alabama Republican, was secretly blocking the confirmation of seventy +Obama appointees over a dispute involving defense earmarks for his•state. (His tactics exposed, Shelby—whose office +maintains that he was responsible for fewer than fifty holds—lifted all but three.) Later that month, Bunning spent several +days and a late night on the Senate floor, filibustering to prevent benefits from being paid to millions of unemployed +Americans. When Merkley tried to reason with him, Bunning responded, ""Tough shit."" (Eventually, Republicans persuaded +Bunning to stop.) +These incidents elicited a brief outcry, but the extent of the Senate's routine folly remains largely hidden. For example, +Grassley and Ron Wyden, of Oregon, have been trying since 1997 to end the practice of secret holds, without success. In +2007, the Senate passed a bill banning secret holds that last longer than six days. But to get around the ban two or more +senators can pass the hold back and forth—it's called ""rolling holds""—and their party leader facilitates the game by +keeping their names secret. +Many of the Senate's antique rules and precedents have been warped beyond recognition by the modern pressures of +partisanship. The hold, for example, was a courtesy extended to senators in the days of horse travel, when they needed +time to get back to Washington and read a bill or question an appointee before casting their vote. Sarah Binder, who co- +authored a book on the filibuster, calls the procedure a historical accident: in 1806, the Senate got rid of a little-used rule +that allowed the ""previous question"" to be called to a vote. Suddenly, there was no inherent limit on debate, and by the +eighteen-thirties senators had begun taking advantage of this loophole, derailing the proceedings by getting up and talking +until their voice, legs, or bladder gave out. (The word ""filibuster' comes from vrijbuiter—old Dutch for ""looter."") +In 1917, Woodrow Wilson, with his wartime legislative agenda blocked by filibusters, forced the Senate to pass Rule XXII, +which allowed a two-thirds majority to bring a floor debate to an end with a ""cloture"" vote. For decades, the rule was rarely +used; between 1919 and 1971, there were only forty-nine cloture votes, fewer than one per year. In the seventies and +eighties, the annual average rose to about a dozen. (Frustration with this increase led the Senate, in 1975, to lower the +threshold for cloture to sixty votes.) In the nineties and early aughts, the average went up to twenty-five or thirty a year, as +both parties escalated their use of the filibuster when they found themselves in the minority. After the Republicans lost +their majority in 2006, filibusters became everyday events: there were a hundred and twelve cloture votes in 2007 and +2008, and this session Republicans are on target to break their own filibuster record. +The tally of cloture votes reflects only a small fraction of senatorial obstruction. Three hundred and forty-five bills passed +by the House have been prevented from even coming up for debate in the Senate. ""Why?"" Steny Hoyer, the outraged +Democratic Majority Leader of the House, asked me. ""Because they do not do their business in a way that facilitates +noncontroversial things. Thankfully, the House of Representatives is not becoming the Senate."" Last week, six House +Democrats expressed their displeasure with the upper chamber by staging a sit-in of sorts on the Senate floor. +Seventy-six nominees for judgeships and executive posts have been approved by committees but, because of blocks, +haven't come up for a vote in the full Senate, leaving courtrooms idle and jobs unfilled across the upper levels of the +Obama Administration. (The Democrats also practiced the art of blocking nominees during the Bush Administration.) +There's often no objection to the individual being blocked: after an eight-month hold, Martha Johnson, nominated to run +the General Services Administration, was confirmed 96-0. On an issue like health-care reform, when the objection was +substantive, Republicans ransacked Riddick's ""Senate Procedure"" for every conceivable way to delay a debate and vote. +Judd Gregg even sent a memo on stalling tactics to his Republican colleagues. Tom Coburn demanded the reading aloud +of an entire seven-hundred-and-sixty-seven-page amendment proposed by Bernie Sanders, the Vermont socialist; Senate +clerks, working in half-hour shifts, were three hours into the chore when Sanders withdrew the amendment in frustration. +Under McConnell, Republicans have consistently consumed as much of the Senate's calendar as possible with legislative +maneuvering. The strategy is not to extend deliberation of the Senate's agenda but to prevent it. Tom Harkin, who first +proposed reform of the filibuster in 1995, called his Republican colleagues ""nihilists,"" who want to create chaos because it +serves their ideology. ""If there's chaos, things will tend toward simple solutions,"" Harkin said. ""In chaos people don't listen +to reason."" McConnell did not respond to requests for an interview, but he has often argued that the Republican strategy +reflects the views of a majority of Americans. In March, he told the Times, ""To the extent that they""—the Democrats— +""want to do things that we think are in the political center and would be helpful to the country, we'll be helpful. To the +extent they are trying to turn us into a Western European country, we are not going to be helpful."" +One of the mysteries of the Senate is how Mitch McConnell has been able to keep his members in line, on vote after vote. +Why do moderates with years of experience and their own power base back home—Richard Lugar, of Indiana; Susan +Collins, of Maine; George Voinovich, of Ohio—keep siding with the more extreme members of their caucus? Alexander +said that McConnell listens well to all his members, adding, ""When you have your back against the wall and the gallows +are hanging in front of you, it tends to unify. Operating with forty members—it concentrates the mind."" +Lindsey Graham described to the Times how McConnell exhorted his caucus after the disastrous 2008 election: ""He said +if we didn't stick together on big things, we wouldn't be relevant."" Last December, the Republicans decided to filibuster a +military-spending bill in order to delay the looming vote on health care until as close to Christmas as possible. Thad +Cochran, the Republican ranking member of the Appropriations Committee, promised Daniel Inouye, the chairman, that +he wouldn't join the effort. But at the last minute Cochran, who has been in the Senate since 1979 and brings +disproportionate amounts of defense money to Mississippi, told Reid that his leadership wouldn't allow him to vote with +the Democrats and end the filibuster—even on a matter of national security. (The Democrats were able to impose cloture, +and the vote on health care finally took place on Christmas Eve.) +Republican defections have been rare. In early 2009, Collins and Olympia Snowe, also of Maine, voted for the stimulus +bill, along with Arlen Specter (who promptly switched parties). Snowe also voted for the Finance Committee's health-care- +reform bill last October, the only Republican to do so. But in December, at the pivotal moment, she voted against the +version that went before the full Senate. ""I wasn't interested in expanding this program beyond the Finance Committee +version—it grew by a thousand pages,"" Snowe said. She wasn't included in the negotiations with White House officials +that took place in an elegant conference room across from Reid's suite of offices, and said that the Democrats ""did not +accept any of my proposals. As I said to the President, it was all windup and no pitch."" McConnell was able to exploit her +alienation. A friend of Snowe cited another reason for her reversal: ""She actually said to me once that she had never felt +the pressure that she felt on health care, never before had that pressure been quite as evident to her or quite as real or +troubling. Kyl and McConnell were saying things like 'You just can't let us down, we're all in this together. You're a senior +Republican member of this caucus, and you just have to hang tough with us. We expect it and you're going to do it.' "" +Reid doesn't use such tough tactics; he has achieved his position, in spite of his public shortcomings, by being the senator +who helped other Democrats, always answered their calls, and got them what they wanted through masterly +maneuvering. This has made him enormously popular within the Democratic caucus, but it doesn't give him the leverage +of McConnell, let alone of Lyndon Johnson. +In the current Senate, it has become normal for a handful of senators, sometimes representing just ten or twenty per cent +of the country's population, to hold everything up. And the status quo has become sufficiently frustrating that a few new +senators have considered a radical option: mutiny. +Tom Udall, who is sixty-two, is older than most freshman senators. He has the crow's-feet of a Westerner who has spent +time in the sun, and a slow, good-natured voice. His father, Stewart, was an Arizona congressman and the Interior +Secretary for Presidents Kennedy and Johnson; his uncle Mo was a legendary Arizona representative; his cousin Mark is +a freshman senator from Colorado. Udall served five terms in the House before winning a Senate seat from New Mexico, +in 2008. And yet he has the air of a political Candide—he is always earnest, capable of disappointment but not cynicism. +""I ran on the idea that the Senate should not be a graveyard for good ideas,"" he said. ""Then to be on the inside—the thing +that strikes you is how one senator can hold up the whole show."" +In his first year in office, Udall decided to do something audacious: he would try to change the Senate's rules. +Customarily, the rules continue session after session, and a provision in Rule XXII requires sixty-seven votes to amend +them, making it extremely difficult. (""Rule XXII is a Catch-22,"" Ted Kennedy used to joke.) Udall embraced a different +idea—the ""constitutional option."" Article I, Section 5 of the Constitution states that ""each House may determine the Rules +of its Proceedings"" at the beginning of the new Congress. So, in theory, a senator could take the floor next January and +propose debating its rules from scratch, including the filibuster. New rules could be passed with a simple majority. There's +even a precedent for this: moves to revisit the rules by invoking the constitutional option have been made three times, +most recently in 1975. Udall has spent much of the past year trying to build support for the idea. +At the request of Udall and others, Schumer, who is the chairman of the Rules Committee, has held a series of hearings +on the filibuster, calling witnesses such as Sarah Binder, the historian, and Walter Mondale, who was in the Senate when +the constitutional option was invoked in 1975. Dick Durbin, the second-highest-ranking Democrat, has organized working +groups among newer members on other internal reforms, such as ending secret holds and choosing committee chairs by +caucus vote rather than by seniority. (Lamar Alexander wryly suggested to me that Schumer and Durbin were competing +for the favor of newer members, in case Harry Reid loses his seat in the fall and they run against each other for Majority +Leader.) +For Republican institutionalists, such as Alexander and Gregg, the push for rules reform is folly. ""If you want a +parliamentary form of government, go over to the House,"" Gregg, who is about to retire, scoffed. ""Why even run for the +Senate?"" Udall's plan for next January, he said, would be a ""gigantic mistake."" +""They'll get over it,"" Alexander said of the Democrats' enthusiasm for rules reform. ""And they'll get over it quicker if they're +in the minority next January. Because they'll instantly see the value of slowing the Senate down to consider whatever they +have to say."" He added that the Senate ""may be getting done about as much as the American people want done."" The +President's ambitious agenda, after all, has upset a lot of voters, across the political spectrum. None of the Republicans I +spoke to agreed with the contention that the Senate is ""broken."" Alexander claimed that he and other Republicans were +exercising the moderating, thoughtful influence on legislation that the founders wanted in the Senate. ""The Senate wasn't +created to be efficient,"" he argued. ""It was created to be inefficient."" At one of the filibuster hearings, in April, Alexander, +sitting across the table from Udall, said that, for all the times the Democrats charge the Republicans with obstructing +legislation, ""we could say that's the number of times the majority has tried to cut off our right to debate, our right to offer +amendments, which is the essence of the Senate."" +Newcomers like Udall seem to think that the Senate has grown so absurd and extreme that some kind of reform is +inevitable. Perhaps they need more time to plumb the depths of the institution's intransigence. According to Sarah Binder, +a change in rules is extremely unlikely; Republicans would be implacably opposed to, say, weakening the filibuster, and +so would some Democrats, especially long-serving ones. ""I would oppose that,"" Chris Dodd said, adding of the freshmen, +""These are people who have never been in the minority."" For older Democrats, who have put in their years, grown adept +at working the rules, and now chair powerful committees, the reform impulse could be a threat. (Among senior senators, +the sole enthusiast for rules reform is Tom Harkin.) One senator spoke of the Senate as being divided not between +whales and minnows but, rather, between bulls and calves. The older Democrats are too accustomed to the Senate's +ways to share the frustrations of the newcomers; the handful of older moderate Republicans are too weak to challenge the +newer radicals who now dominate the caucus. +Even if the freshmen Democrats can somehow reform the filibuster next January, the Senate will remain a sclerotic, +wasteful, unhappy body. The deepest source of its problems is not rules and precedents but, rather, its human beings, +who have created a culture where Tocqueville's ""lofty thoughts"" and ""generous impulses"" have no place. +A few days after passing health-care reform, the Senate struggled to its feet to take on a second large task. Financial +regulatory reform should have been the easiest piece of major legislation of the Obama Presidency, the likeliest to win +real bipartisan support. The financial crisis had been catastrophic for millions of Americans, and after the 2008 bailout +Wall Street had become even more hated than the Senate was. In April, a lineup of bankers from Goldman Sachs +appeared before Senator Levin's subcommittee on investigations, and managed to appear as arrogant, callous, and +evasive as their reputations had suggested. The public demanded action. Some Republicans had a genuine desire to +pass a bill. If health-care reform had been a war of attrition, financial reform was a promising liaison. +The affair began with a Republican, Bob Corker, and a Democrat, Mark Warner—both multimillionaires serving their first +term, both considered centrists. Corker is a small, dapper former construction magnate who became the mayor of +Chattanooga; Warner is a tall, preppily dressed former telecommunications entrepreneur who became the governor of +Virginia. Chris Dodd, the Banking Committee chairman, assigned them to work together on the section of the bill having to +do with the liquidation of troubled firms—making sure that there would never be another taxpayer bailout. They worked +through the winter, in Warner's office, in Corker's office, over dinner, sometimes without staff, as if they were members of +a Senate from the past. They hosted a series of afternoon seminars, inviting guests such as Ben Bernanke, Alan +Greenspan, and Sheila Bair. Corker and Warner were sometimes said to be the only Democrat and Republican still +talking to each other. In January, Business Week called them the Senate's ""Odd Couple."" By February, they had finished +their work. +Meanwhile, discussions about the entire bill between Dodd and Richard Shelby, the top Republican on the committee, +dragged on, repeatedly breaking down. Finally, on February 10th, Dodd called Corker, who, though he was one of the +committee's junior members, agreed to be the chairman's Republican negotiating partner. When Corker informed +McConnell and Shelby, they expressed surprise. ""It was an odd place to be,"" Corker recalled. ""And yet that night we +began meeting."" The junior Republican savored the rare experience of creating, rather than opposing, legislation. In +response, Shelby's conservative staff tried to undermine Corker, spreading rumors among Republicans and their lobbyists +that he was giving too much away. (A Shelby aide said that staff members were simply informing other Republicans of the +Party's line on financial reform.) +On March 10th, Dodd concluded that he had to move a bill to the floor. He called Corker and said, ""You've been a great +partner."" He was ending their talks after only a month. ""It's a little stunning, I've got to be honest,"" Corker told reporters +afterward. Someone close to the negotiations compared Corker to Dickens's Miss Havisham, unable to get over the +rebuff, forever awaiting the arrival of her groom, all her clocks stopped. Corker later said that Dodd had ended the talks +under pressure from the White House and other Democrats. Dodd said that Corker had been unable to bring any other +Republicans with him. ""Baloney,"" Corker said. ""If Dodd had reached an agreement with me, we'd've had at least twenty- +five Republican votes."" +The bill that Dodd brought before the Senate, after a year of discussions with Democrats and Republicans alike, +incorporated the bipartisan plan of Warner and Corker to prevent another bank bailout: setting up a fifty-billion-dollar fund, +paid for by the banks, to insure orderly liquidation, and establishing a risk council to detect warning signs of another crisis. +But in mid-April Mitch McConnell—who had just met with Wall Street executives in New York, and was now parroting +talking points from a memo written by the Republican strategist Frank Luntz—called it a ""partisan bill"" that ""will guarantee +perpetual taxpayer bailout of Wall Street banks."" McConnell presented a letter, signed by all forty-one Republicans, +suggesting that they would filibuster the financial-reform bill. +His remarks amounted to a repudiation of Corker's work as well as of Dodd's. The next day, April 15th, Corker pleaded +with his colleagues, in his Tennessee twang, ""Let's come to the floor and let's act like adults. Let's tone down the rhetoric. +Let's don't exaggerate the pluses or minuses. Let's do what the Senate was created to do. . . . We were supposed to be +the people that took some of the red-hot activities that sometimes come from the other body and sat down with cooler +heads and resolved the issues like adults. We can do that. As a matter of fact, I would say, if we cannot do that on +financial regulation, an issue that really doesn't have any real philosophical bearings to it . . ."" Corker didn't allow the +thought to ripen—he had already gone farther than almost any Republican would have dared. +Dodd spoke later in the day and completed Corker's speech: ""I know my friends on the other side of the aisle are faced +with a difficult choice between supporting their party leadership and participating in this complicated, difficult debate. I am +not naïve. I know that is a hard place to be. But if we can't act like U.S. senators for the sake of this issue . . . then why +are we even here?"" He went on, ""We work for an American public that is sick and tired of feeling like no one is looking out +for their interests, like the political hacks and lobbyists hold all the cards in these discussions. The minority seems intent +on proving them right. . . . I have been here a long time. I know this institution is better than that. I know there are friends +of mine on the other side of the aisle who care about this bill, who want to be a part of the debate, who want to be part of +the solution."" +In the same speech, Dodd joined the partisan fight, accusing McConnell of lying about the bill. Turning crimson-faced, he +chopped the air with his hand as he shouted, ""I have to ask myself, why did I go through this process over the last four or +five months, agreeing to much of what they were offering, and there is not a single political vote to show for it. . . . I have +to say to the younger members, the newer members coming along: be careful!"" +Corker, having heard that Dodd was speaking, returned to the chamber and asked to respond. ""You and I went a long +way,"" Corker told Dodd. ""Then we stopped. On March 10th it ended. I understand that, look, you were losing Democrats +on your committee."" +""And I was not gaining Republicans,"" Dodd replied. +""You had one, and that is all you asked for when you started. I never said I could speak for anybody but myself. And I did +not leave the table."" Corker urged Dodd to keep talking to Republicans—their differences could be sorted out in a few +days. +But this was not McConnell's agenda. Instead, financial reform became a slightly more polite repeat of the health-care- +reform brawl: the Republicans threatened filibusters, the Democrats threatened all-nighters, and thousands of lobbyists +prowled the Capitol, charging their Wall Street clients more than a billion dollars. On April 28th, I was sitting in the ornate +Reception Room with Jim Manley, Reid's spokesman. On the other side of the wall, there was the noise of furniture +scraping across a tile floor. ""Those are cots being set up in the L.B.J. Room,"" Manley said. ""Very little happens around +here without a deadline."" The cots persuaded Republicans to allow the bill to move to the floor for debate. A few weeks +later, on May 20th, yet another filibuster was defeated by yet another cloture motion, and financial reform finally came to a +vote. It passed, 59-39. Only four Republicans had joined the majority. Corker wasn't among them. He had even voted for +an amendment, offered by his Republican colleague Jeff Sessions, of Alabama, that would have scrapped Corker's work +of many months with Warner. +""The idea of watching Bob Corker vote for the Sessions amendment!"" Dodd said afterward, sitting in his red-curtained +office, under a print of Holbein's portrait of Thomas More. ""It's the Senate, I guess."" McConnell's strategy of obstruction +had once again come close to succeeding, Dodd said, but he knew that a ""shrinking number"" of Republicans were +frustrated. The previous day, Dodd had said to Susan Collins, ""God, I would have loved to have you as my ranking +member on this."" Collins responded, ""We could have had such a great time on this bill."" +Warner, who said that he believed in bipartisanship because ""the American people don't trust either political party enough +to give them a blank check,"" was astonished that so few Republicans voted for financial reform. ""There was zero +substantive reason why this couldn't have been eighty votes,"" he said. I asked him why Bob Corker had voted no on the +bill. Warner started to talk about the consumer-protection title, and then said, ""If you want to vote against something, you +can always find your reasons."" +But Corker hadn't seemed to want to vote against it. He had spent months trying to act like a U.S. senator, alienating +himself from his own party and then the other party, and on the day of the vote he held the floor for the better part of thirty +minutes, as if he were still reluctant to let the effort go. ""I am obviously disappointed,"" he said. ""I think I have spent as +much time as any senator. . . on policy regarding our financial system. I think any bill—even this bill—has good things in +it. There is no question. And I appreciate the thrust. But I think there is a lot of overreaching, and I think not enough time +was spent on some of the core issues."" +As the senators cast their votes, I noticed Robert Kaiser, the author of ""So Damn Much Money,"" in the press gallery. I later +asked him if, with the passage of two big reform bills in three months, we were witnessing a possible renewal of the +Senate. ""If you can engage public opinion in a way politicians can understand, public opinion can still blow away money +and interest groups,"" he said. ""But over the past few decades the reflex has grown in the Senate that, all things +considered, it's better to avoid than to take on big issues. This is the kind of thing that drives Michael Bennet nutty: here +you've arrived in the United States Senate and you can't do fuck-all about the destruction of the planet."" +After the final vote on financial reform, the Republicans flew home, and the Democratic leaders held a press conference, +smiling before the microphones outside the Senate chamber. Reid said, ""For those who wanted to protect Wall Street, it +didn't work."" He then excused himself: he had to join Biden for a telephone fund-raiser with ""some Nevadans."" +Durbin said, ""I was stunned that only four Republicans would join us in passing this historic legislation. What does it take +to bring the Republican Party into the conversation about the future of America?"" +Dodd, glowing with triumph, said, ""I wanted to demonstrate that the Senate of the United States could conduct its +business much as our founders intended. We did that."" +On July 21st, President Obama signed the completed bill. The two lasting achievements of this Senate, financial +regulation and health care, required a year and a half of legislative warfare that nearly destroyed the body. They +depended on a set of circumstances—a large majority of Democrats, a charismatic President with an electoral mandate, +and a national crisis—that will not last long or be repeated anytime soon. Two days after financial reform became law, +Harry Reid announced that the Senate would not take up comprehensive energy-reform legislation for the rest of the year. +And so climate change joined immigration, job creation, food safety, pilot training, veterans' care, campaign finance, +transportation security, labor law, mine safety, wildfire management, and scores of executive and judicial appointments on +the list of matters that the world's greatest deliberative body is incapable of addressing. Already, you can feel the Senate +slipping back into stagnant waters. +ILLUSTRATION: STEVE BRODNER +• Print +• E-Mail +• Feeds +Share: +• Facebook +• Twitter +• Digg +• More +To get more of The New Yorker's signature mix of politics, culture and the arts: Subscribe now +Related Links +Ask the Author: Join a live chat with George Packer about the Senate on Wednesday, August 4, at 3 P.M.

""The obstructionism has become +mindless."" +The Senators were in the Capitol, sunk into armchairs before the marble fireplace in the press lounge, which is directly +behind the Senate chamber. It was four-thirty on a Wednesday afternoon. McCaskill, in a matching maroon jacket and +top, looked exasperated; Levin glowered over his spectacles. +""Also, it's a dumb rule in itself,"" McCaskill said. ""It's time we started looking at some of these rules."" +She was referring to Senate Rule XXVI, Paragraph 5, which requires unanimous consent for committees and +subcommittees to hold hearings after two in the afternoon while the Senate is in session. Both Levin and McCaskill had +scheduled hearings that day for two-thirty. Typically, it wouldn't be difficult to get colleagues to waive the rule; a general +and an admiral had flown halfway around the world to appear before Levin's Armed Services Committee, and McCaskill's +Subcommittee on Contracting Oversight of the Homeland Security Committee was investigating the training of Afghan +police. But this was March 24th, the day after President Barack Obama signed the health-care-reform bill, in a victory +ceremony at the White House; it was also the day that the Senate was to vote on a reconciliation bill for health-care +reform, approved by the House three nights earlier, which would retroactively remove the new law's most embarrassing +sweetheart deals and complete the yearlong process of passing universal health care. Republicans, who had fought the +bill as a bloc, were in no mood to make things easy. +So, four hours earlier, when Levin went to the Senate floor and asked for consent to hold his hearing, Senator Richard +Burr, Republican of North Carolina, and a member of Levin's committee, had refused. ""I have no personal objection to +continuing,"" Burr said. But, he added, ""there is objection on our side of the aisle. Therefore, I would have to object."" +Burr had to object on behalf of his party because he was the only Republican in the chamber when Levin spoke. In +general, when senators give speeches on the floor, their colleagues aren't around, and the two or three who might be +present aren't listening. They're joking with aides, or e-mailing Twitter ideas to their press secretaries, or getting their first +look at a speech they're about to give before the eight unmanned cameras that provide a live feed to C-SPAN2. The +presiding officer of the Senate—freshmen of the majority party take rotating, hour-long shifts intended to introduce them to +the ways of the institution—sits in his chair on the dais, scanning his BlackBerry or reading a Times article about the +Senate. Michael Bennet, a freshman Democrat from Colorado, said, ""Sit and watch us for seven days—just watch the +floor. You know what you'll see happening? Nothing. When I'm in the chair, I sit there thinking, I wonder what they're +doing in China right now?"" +Between speeches, there are quorum calls, time killers in which a Senate clerk calls the roll at the rate of one name every +few minutes. The press gallery, above the dais, is typically deserted, as journalists prefer to hunker down in the press +lounge, surfing the Web for analysis of current Senate negotiations; television screens alert them if something of interest +actually happens in the chamber. The only people who pay attention to a speech are the Senate stenographers. On this +afternoon, two portly bald men in suits stood facing the speaker from a few feet away, tapping at the transcription +machines, which resembled nineteenth-century cash registers, slung around their necks. The Senate chamber is an +intimate room where men and women go to talk to themselves for the record. +Like many other aspects of senatorial procedure, Rule XXVI, Paragraph 5 is a relic from the days when senators had to +hover around their desks to know what was happening on the floor during the main afternoon debate. (The desks, some +built as long ago as 1819, are mahogany, and their lids lift up, like those in an old schoolhouse; the desks of the Majority +and Minority Leader are still equipped with brass spittoons.) In the press lounge, McCaskill said, with light sarcasm, +""Somebody told me the rule is to make sure people pay attention to what's happening on the floor during debate and not +be distracted by committee work. Clearly, it's an old rule."" +The Republicans had turned this old rule into a new means of obstruction. There would be no hearings that afternoon; the +general and the admiral would have to come back another day. Like investment bankers on Wall Street, senators these +days direct much of their creative energy toward the manipulation of arcane rules and loopholes, scoring short-term +successes while magnifying their institution's broader dysfunction. +Around five o'clock, the chamber began to fill, as the reconciliation bill came up for a vote; there were twenty-three +amendments pending, all from Republicans, and perhaps many more to come. Ordinarily, debate and voting on an +amendment might take two legislative days, but under the rules of the reconciliation bill the senators were to dispatch the +amendments one after another, as in a hot-dog-eating contest, with a minute of debate for each side. The goal was to +finish the bill by the end of the evening, so that senators wouldn't miss a day of their spring recess—apparently, the only +thing worse than a government takeover of the health-care system. The usual longueurs of the Senate, where forty +minutes can tick away on the antique clock above the rear double doors without a word's being spoken, were about to +yield to a frenzy. Harry Reid, the Majority Leader, from Nevada, had predicted that the process, known as Vote-O-Rama, +would go past two in the morning, and had warned senators to stay close to the chamber. +Max Baucus, of Montana, the manager of the bill for the Democrats, rose and said, ""This is the first time in recent memory +that a reconciliation bill has all the amendments on one side only. These are clearly amendments designed to kill the +reconciliation and, therefore, kill health-care reform. So I very much hope that all of these amendments are defeated."" +Tall, gaunt Judd Gregg, of New Hampshire, the bill's Republican manager, took the floor. ""The position on the other side +of the aisle is: no amendments allowed, even if they are good,"" he said. Indignation rouged his cheeks, and his voice rose +half an octave. ""Obviously, they presume the Republican Party is an inconvenience. The democratic process is an +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +inconvenience. It also appears, considering the opposition to this out in America, that the American people are an +inconvenience."" +The Senate chamber is laid out in four concentric semicircles, with adjacent desks almost touching on the crowded +Democratic side, and the desks of the much smaller Republican minority spaced loosely apart. The design is meant to +emphasize the senators' unity. But Baucus and Gregg avoided eye contact across the six feet of aisle that now divides the +chamber into two constantly warring factions. Senators are required, by custom, to speak of one another in the third +person, directing their anger and sarcasm through whichever poor freshman happens to be the presiding officer at the +moment. Rule XIX, Paragraphs 2 and 3—one of the original rules drawn from Thomas Jefferson's ""Manual of +Parliamentary Practice""—bars senators from imputing unworthy conduct or motives to another senator, and from insulting +any senator's state. But there is no rule against finger-wagging, and Baucus wagged his at Gregg while shouting at Al +Franken, of Minnesota, who had started a shift in the presiding officer's chair: ""Mr. President, make no mistake, the intent +of every single one of the amendments offered on the other side of the aisle is to kill health-care reform. . . . A senator on +the other side of the aisle stood up and said that this is hopefully the President's Waterloo. They want to kill health-care +reform!"" +The voice of Stuart Smalley filled the chamber: ""The time of the senator has expired."" +For the next nine hours, the chamber became the stage of a theatrical whose ending, like almost everything that happens +on the Senate floor, was known in advance to all. The Republican goal in Vote-O-Rama was to embarrass the Democrats +while appearing to suggest useful changes; the Democratic goal was to prevent any change to the bill, so that it wouldn't +have to return to the House, where it might be voted down. Several of the Republican amendments had been designed to +make Democrats look hypocritical, by forcing them to vote against policies that the Party typically supports. One +amendment, for example, declared that the health-care bill could not be linked to a tax hike on individuals making less +than two hundred thousand dollars a year. Other amendments were more nakedly partisan, and outlandish. David Vitter, a +Louisiana Republican, proposed an amendment that repealed the entire law. Senator Tom Coburn, a Republican +obstetrician from Oklahoma, introduced an amendment to insure that veterans diagnosed with mental illness would not be +denied the right to own firearms, and another to prevent ""convicted child molesters, rapists, and sex offenders"" from +buying erectile-dysfunction drugs with taxpayer funds. Coburn got through the minute he was allotted to explain his Viagra +amendment without cracking a smile. ""This is not a game amendment,"" he insisted. ""It actually saves money."" +So many senators snickered that the presiding officer banged his gavel for order. +""The amendment offered by the senator from Oklahoma makes a mockery of this Senate,"" Baucus declared. ""It is a crass +political stunt aimed at making thirty-second commercials, not public policy."" Baucus asked for the yeas and nays, and a +clerk called the roll at a ragged pace. ""Mr. Coburn, Mr. Cochran, Ms. Collins."" Thirty-five-second pause. ""Mr. Conrad, Mr. +Corker."" Ten seconds. ""Mr. Cornyn."" Senators pay no attention to the sound of their name; they cast votes when they're +so inclined—wandering in late, shuffling down the chamber's gentle blue-carpeted steps to the swarm of colleagues +milling about in the well, where the clerks sit at a table, and then holding a finger up or down. At one point, John McCain— +now just one of a hundred senators and struggling to stay in office—spent half a minute waving stiff-armed, trying to catch +the eye of a clerk so he could cast his vote. In the end, two Democrats—Evan Bayh, of Indiana, and Ben Nelson, of +Nebraska—joined the Republicans in opposing Viagra for sex offenders. The amendment was defeated. +The carpeting in the chamber absorbs voices, and during the long night one of the few that rose above the muffled drone +was that of Charles Schumer, who said to Gregg, ""Get to work! Stop screwing around with health care!"" Sporadically, a +sharp cackle emanated from Al Franken, who wandered the chamber, looking for Republicans he could charm into +laughing. Observed from the press gallery, the senators in their confined space began to resemble zoo animals—Levin a +shambling brown bear, John Thune a loping gazelle, Jim Bunning a maddened grizzly. Each one displayed a limited set of +behaviors: in conversations, John Kerry planted himself a few inches away, loomed, and clamped his hands down on a +colleague's shoulders. Joe Lieberman patted everyone on the back. It became clear which senators were loners (Russ +Feingold, Daniel Akaka) and which were social (Blanche Lincoln, Lindsey Graham); which senators were important (Dick +Durbin, Jon Kyl) and which were ignored (Bayh, Bunning). +Past midnight, Durbin slumped at his desk, one hand over his face, yawning painfully. Susan Collins was going through +her mail. Twenty-three amendments had been voted down, and the Republicans were proposing a fresh batch. ""Can we +get some order?"" Bunning growled, before he introduced a proposal to let senior citizens opt out of parts of Medicare. It +was the only amendment that any Republicans joined the Democrats to defeat. +Harry Reid controls the Senate's schedule, but Mitch McConnell, of Kentucky, who is the Minority Leader, can object. +Since nearly everything in the Senate depends on unanimous consent, the main business of the place is a continuous +negotiation between these two supremely unsentimental men. That night, they played a game of chicken: McConnell, +unsmiling, his eyes riveted ahead, held out the prospect of dozens more amendments; Reid, a former boxer, was +hunched and mumbling, playing rope-a-dope, vowing to fend off amendments all night. The two leaders left the chamber +to confer privately about how to proceed. Inside, the atmosphere of a slumber party set in. Debbie Stabenow, of Michigan, +her hand across her heart, sang a sentimental duet with Robert Menendez, of New Jersey. Exhaustion momentarily +eased the partisan divide. Claire McCaskill sat down beside Tom Coburn, held up an erect finger in his face, as if casting +her Viagra vote, then let it go limp. Coburn could be heard to joke, ""The longest it lasted was thirty seconds."" +At two-forty-five in the morning, Reid suddenly declared the Senate adjourned. The Senate parliamentarian had just found +two small violations of the reconciliation rules, meaning that in the morning, despite the Democrats' efforts, the bill would +go back to the House for another vote. At the bang of the gavel, the senators fled. In the parking lot, on the Capitol's +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +northeast side, McCaskill climbed into her S.U.V. Levin, in a cramped sedan, was chauffeured off into the empty streets. +On a marble ledge near the exit, Arlen Specter sat alone, a ghost in a brown suit, staring straight ahead, as if waiting for +someone to take him away. +The Senate reconvened at 9:45 A.M. Around two in the afternoon, the members gathered for the final vote, and the +Democrats were giddy. Tom Harkin, of Iowa, and Christopher Dodd, of Connecticut, even exchanged a hug. ""Everyone's +tired,"" Reid declared before the final vote. ""This legislative fight is one for the record books."" He was so fatigued that he +initially voted the wrong way. Lindsey Graham came in late, delaying the tally by ten minutes. ""Way to go, Lindsey, way to +stretch it out,"" Sam Brownback told him. A few Republicans lingered and took in the moment, like players on the losing +team at the end of the World Series. After a year of work, health-care reform had passed, 56-43, and for a moment the +chamber's Tweeting pygmies had become legislative giants. +The Senate is often referred to as ""the world's greatest deliberative body."" Jeff Merkley, a freshman Democrat from +Oregon, said, ""That is a phrase that I wince each time I hear it, because the amount of real deliberation, in terms of +exchange of ideas, is so limited."" Merkley could remember witnessing only one moment of floor debate between a +Republican and a Democrat. ""The memory I took with me was: 'Wow, that's unusual—there's a conversation occurring in +which they're making point and counterpoint and challenging each other.' And yet nobody else was in the chamber."" +Tom Udall, a freshman Democrat from New Mexico, could not recall seeing a senator change another senator's mind. +""You would really need a good hour or two of extensive exchange among folks that really know the issue,"" he said. +Instead, a senator typically gives ""a prepared speech that's already been vetted through the staff. Then another guy gets +up and gives a speech on a completely different subject."" From time to time, senators of the same party carry on a +colloquy—""I would be interested in the distinguished senator from Iowa's view of the other side's Medicare Advantage +plan""—that has been scripted in advance by aides. +While senators are in Washington, their days are scheduled in fifteen-minute intervals: staff meetings, interviews, visits +from lobbyists and home-state groups, caucus lunches, committee hearings, briefing books, floor votes, fund-raisers. +Each senator sits on three or four committees and even more subcommittees, most of which meet during the same +morning hours, which helps explain why committee tables are often nearly empty, and why senators drifting into a hearing +can barely sustain a coherent line of questioning. All this activity is crammed into a three-day week, for it's an unwritten +rule of the modern Senate that votes are almost never scheduled for Mondays or Fridays, which allows senators to spend +four days away from the capital. Senators now, unlike those of several decades ago, often keep their families in their +home states, where they return most weekends, even if it's to Alaska or Idaho—a concession to endless fund-raising, and +to the populist anti-Washington mood of recent years. (When Newt Gingrich became Speaker of the House, in 1995, he +told new Republican members not to move their families to the capital.) Tom Daschle, the former Democratic leader, said, +""When we scheduled votes, the only day where we could be absolutely certain we had all one hundred senators there +was Wednesday afternoon."" +Nothing dominates the life of a senator more than raising money. Tom Harkin, the Iowa Democrat, said, ""Of any free time +you have, I would say fifty per cent, maybe even more,"" is spent on fund-raising. In addition to financing their own +campaigns, senators participate at least once a week in the Power Hour, during which they make obligatory calls on +behalf of the Party (in the Democrats' case, from a three-story town house across Constitution Avenue from the Senate +office buildings, since they're barred from using their own offices to raise money). Lamar Alexander, the Tennessee +Republican, insisted that the donations are never sufficient to actually buy a vote, but he added, ""It sucks up time that a +senator ought to be spending getting to know other senators, working on issues."" +In June, 2009, top aides to Max Baucus, whose Finance Committee was negotiating the health-care-reform bill, took time +to meet with two health-care lobbyists, who themselves were former Baucus aides. (Baucus received more than a million +dollars from the industry for his 2008 reelection campaign.) That month, according to Common Cause, industry groups +were spending $1.4 million a day to lobby members of Congress. Udall, speaking of the corrosive effect of fund-raising +and lobbying, said, ""People know it in their heart—they know this place is dominated by special interests. The over-all bills +are not nearly as bold because of the influence of money."" +Deschle sketched a portrait of the contemporary senator who is too busy to think: ""Sometimes, you're dialling for dollars, +you get the call, you've got to get over to vote, you've got fifteen minutes. You don't have a clue what's on the floor, your +staff is whispering in your ears, you're running onto the floor, then you check with your leader—you double check—but, +just to make triple sure, there's a little sheet of paper on the clerk's table: The leader recommends an aye vote, or a no +vote. So you've got all these checks just to make sure you don't screw up, but even then you screw up sometimes. But, if +you're ever pressed, 'Why did you vote that way?'—you just walk out thinking, Oh, my God, I hope nobody asks, because +I don't have a clue."" +Aides, at the elbows of senators as they shuttle between their offices and the Capitol, have proliferated over the past few +decades, and they play a crucial role. Lamar Alexander, who has an office of fifty people, pointed out that staff members, +who are younger and often more ideological than their bosses, and less dependent on institutional relationships, tend to +push senators toward extremes. Often, aides are the main actors behind proposed legislation—writing bills, negotiating +the details—while the senator is relegated to repeating talking points on Fox' or MSNBC. +One day in his office, Udall picked up some tabloids from his coffee table and waved them at me. ""You know about all +these rags that cover the Hill, right?"" he said, smiling. There are five dailies—Politico, The Hill, Roll Call, Con gressDaily, +and CQ Today—all of which emphasize insider conflict. The senators, who like to complain about the trivializing effect of +the ""24/7 media,"" provide no end of fodder for it. The news of the day was what Udall called a ""dust-up"" between Scott +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +Brown, the freshman Massachusetts Republican, and a staffer for Jim DeMint, the arch-conservative from South Carolina; +the staffer had Tweeted that Brown was voting too often with the Democrats, leading Brown to confront DeMint on the +Senate floor over this supposed breach of protocol. Bloggers carry so much influence that many senators have a young +press aide dedicated to the care and feeding of online media. News about, by, and for a tiny kingdom of political +obsessives dominates the attention of senators and staff, while stories that might affect their constituents go unreported +because their home-state papers can no longer afford to have bureaus in Washington. Dodd, who came to the Senate in +1981 and will leave next January, told me, ""I used to have eleven Connecticut newspaper reporters who covered me on a +daily basis. I don't have one today, and haven't had one in a number of years. Instead, D.C. publications only see me +through the prism of conflict."" Lamar Alexander described the effect as ""this instant radicalizing of positions to the left and +the right."" +Both Alexander and Gregg said that the Senate had been further polarized by the rising number of senators—now nearly +fifty—who come from the House, rather than from governorships or other positions where bipartisan coOperation is still +permissible. ""A lot of senators don't understand the history or tradition of the institution,"" Gregg said. ""Substantive, +thoughtful, moderate discussion is pushed aside."" +Encumbered with aides, prodded by hourly jolts from electronic media, racing from the hearing room to the caucus lunch +to the Power Hour to the airport, senators no longer have the time, or perhaps the inclination, to get to know one +another—least of all, members of the other party. Friendships across party lines are more likely among the few spouses +who live in Washington. After Udall joined the Senate, last year, he was invited to dinner by Alexander, because Jill +Cooper Udall and Honey Alexander had become friends through a women's social club. It remains the only time Udall has +set foot in the house of a Republican senator. (Vice-President Joe Biden, in his autobiography, recalls that, in the +seventies, a bipartisan group of senators and their wives hosted a monthly dinner: ""In those days Democrats and +Republicans actually enjoyed each other's company."") When I asked Chris Dodd how well he knew, for example, Jim +DeMint, Dodd said, ""Not at all. Whereas Jesse Helms and I knew each other pretty well."" He repeated something that Jon +Kyl, the Republican whip, from Arizona, had recently said to him: ""There's no trust."" Dodd, whose father was a senator, +went on, ""That's really all there is—this place really operates on that. I don't think anyone would argue with that +conclusion. And if that's missing. +There remains a veneer—badly chipped—of comity. On the floor, senators still refer to members of the opposing party as +""friends."" Gregg described Kent Conrad, a Democrat from North Dakota, as ""one of my best friends in the Senate,"" and +both Gregg and Alexander ticked off examples of little-known legislation that they are currently working on with +Democrats; Alexander and Ben Cardin, of Maryland, have introduced a bill to ban mountaintop-removal coal mining. Udall +noted that he had become friendly with John McCain when they went on a congressional tour of Iraq. But opportunities to +bond are rare. On the first floor of the Capitol, there is a private dining room for senators, the ""inner sanctum,"" where +Republicans and Democrats used to have lunch (at separate tables, but in the same room). In the seventies, old bulls +such as James Eastland, Hubert Humphrey, and Jacob Javits held court there; later, Daniel Patrick Moynihan did. ""You +learned, and also you found out what was going on,"" Dodd said, adding, ""It's awfully difficult to say crappy things about +someone that you just had lunch with."" These days, the inner sanctum is nearly always empty. Senators eat lunch in their +respective caucus rooms with members of their party, or else ""downtown,"" which means asking donors for money over +steak and potatoes at the Monocle or Charlie Palmer. The tradition of the ""caucus lunch"" was instituted by Republicans in +the fifties, when they lost their majority; Democrats, after losing theirs in 1980, followed suit. Caucus lunches work +members on both sides into a state of pep-rally fervor. During one recent Republican lunch, Jim Bunning referred to Harry +Reid as an idiot. ""At least he had the courtesy to do it behind closed doors,"" Alexander joked, adding, ""We spend most of +our time in team meetings deciding what we're going to do to each other."" +In 2007, Alexander and Lieberman started a series of bipartisan Tuesday breakfasts. ""They kind of dwindled off during the +health-care debate,"" Alexander said. Udall has tried to revive the Wednesday inner-sanctum lunch. For the first few +months, only Democrats attended. Then, one Wednesday in May, Susan Collins, the Maine Republican, showed up, +joking nervously about being a turncoat; to protect her reputation, her presence was kept secret. +These efforts at resurrecting dead customs are as self-conscious and, probably, as doomed as the get-togethers of lovers +who try to stay friends after a breakup. Ira Shapiro, a Washington lawyer and a former aide to Senator Gaylord Nelson, of +Wisconsin, put it this way: ""Why would they want to have lunch together when they hate each other?"" +The upper chamber of Congress was a constitutional compromise between popular sovereignty and state sovereignty. +The Senate was designed, as part of the separation of powers, to check the impulses of the House and the popular will. +For some Federalists, it also had an aristocratic purpose: to collect knowledge and experience, and to guard against a +levelling spirit that might overtake the majority. When Alexis de Tocqueville visited the Senate, in 1832, he was deeply +impressed by the quality of its members: ""They represent only the lofty thoughts [of the nation] and the generous instincts +animating it, not the petty passions."" But he also recognized that ""a minority of the nation dominating the Senate could +completely paralyze the will of the majority represented in the other house, and that is contrary to the spirit of +constitutional government."" As long as the Senate continued to be composed of America's most talented statesmen, +Tocqueville implied, it would restrain its own anti-democratic potential. +Robert A. Caro, in ""Master of the Senate,"" the third volume of his life of Lyndon Johnson, argues that after the Civil War • +the Senate was captured by wealthy and sectional interests, ending a more high-minded age when Daniel Webster, Henry +Clay, and John C. Calhoun engaged in brilliant debate. Aside from spasms of legislation at the start of the Presidencies of +Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt, Caro writes, the Senate remained controlled by an alliance of Southern racists +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +and Republican corporate shills, and was ""the dam against which the waves of social reform dashed themselves in vain— +the chief obstructive force in the federal government."" By the fifties, the Senate had become far more conservative than +the public. And not just conservative: William S. White, in his 1956 book ""Citadel,"" called the Senate ""to a most peculiar +degree, a Southern Institution . . . growing at the heart of this ostensibly national assembly"" and ""the only place in the +country where the South did not lose the war."" +By mid-century, it had become a journalistic cliché to call the Senate broken. Otto Preminger's 1962 film ""Advise and +Consent,"" based on the novel by Allen Drury, is about the Senate of that period, and it presents Democrats and +Republicans as equally amoral, calculating, and power-hungry. But the institution, as depicted by Preminger, still works, in +its way: though the deals stink, they get cut. The senators know their colleagues and the rules; they back-stab one +another in the lunchroom, then drink cocktails and play cards on Saturday nights. There are no lobbyists, no fund-raisers, +no media, no constituents—only senators' intricate relations with one another. The Senate is its own world. +In a memoir, Johnson's longtime aide Harry McPherson recalls learning that the Senate's ""famous 'club' atmosphere is +based on the members' mutual acceptance of responsibility and concentration on the tasks at hand. . . . They thrust hard +at one another in debate over serious matters,"" but, he writes, ""understanding and accommodation in the ordinary course +of the Senate day was essential to sanity."" Johnson, the most powerful Majority Leader in history, bent the Senate to his +will and forced it to become more efficient. He saw his colleagues as either ""whales""—the heavyweight chairmen who +negotiated legislation—or ""minnows,"" the followers who went along with the brokered deals. And when, in 1958, a +formidable new class of liberal Democrats entered the Senate—including Edmund Muskie, Eugene McCarthy, and Philip +Hart—the legislative machinery began to produce reform. Michael Janeway, the author of ""The Fall of the House of +Roosevelt,"" worked as a summer staff member between 1958 and 1962. ""They used to talk to each other—that's my most +vivid recollection,"" he said. ""If Wayne Morse talked of constitutional law on the floor, the Southerners would come in to +hear him. The same with Hubert Humphrey on farm policy. My strongest impression was of it being a deliberative body, +drawing each other out—sometimes pedantically."" Senators who ran for office in order to work on foreign policy, social +welfare, or urbanization had to win credibility with the whales. ""But if you wanted to do something there was a mechanism +by which you could do it,"" Janeway said. +In the sixties and seventies, Southern-conservative control was broken by a coalition of left-of-center Democrats and +moderate Republicans. Donald Ritchie, the Senate historian, who started working there in 1976, described the Senate of +those decades as ""a bipartisan liberal institution."" The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was written largely out of the office of the +Republican Minority Leader, Everett Dirksen. Every major initiative—voting rights, open housing, environmental law, +campaign reform—enjoyed bipartisan support. In the rare event of a filibuster, the motion to end debate was often filed +jointly by leaders of both parties. When Medicare—that government takeover of health care for the elderly—was passed, +in 1965, it won 70-24. +The Senate's momentum nurtured superb talent: William Fulbright, Everett Dirksen, Henry Jackson, Frank Church, +Howard Baker. In 1969, George McGovern chaired a select committee on hunger that actually held bipartisan ""field +hearings"" in poor regions, calling witnesses in migrant labor camps, and then, with Bob Dole's indispensable support, +greatly expanded the food-stamp program. The intensity of senatorial purpose in those years must strike today's +legislators as profoundly humbling. After Joe Biden came to the Senate, in 1973, Hubert Humphrey took him aside and +said, ""You have to pick an issue that becomes yours. That's how you attract your colleagues to follow you, Joe. That's +how you demonstrate your bona fides. Don't be a gadfly."" Humphrey's career advice: ""You should become Mr. Housing. +Housing is the future."" +The Senate's modern decline began in 1978, with the election of a new wave of anti-government conservatives, and +accelerated as Republicans became the majority in 1981. ""The Quayle generation came in, and there were a number of +people just like Dan—same generation, same hair style, same beliefs,"" Gary Hart, the Colorado Democrat, recalled. ""They +were harder-line. They weren't there to get along with Democrats. But they look accommodationist compared to +Republicans in the Senate today."" Church, McGovern, Javits, and Birch Bayh were gone. Ira Shapiro, the former aide, +who is writing a book about the Senate of the sixties and seventies, said, ""It was a huge loss of the most experienced, +accomplished senators being replaced by neophytes. All of a sudden, in 1981, more than half the Senate had been there +less than six years."" He added, ""The shattering of the great Senate has long-term effects that keep showing up. It gets +worse over time, but it just never gets restored. There was a phrase I heard from Helms and the younger ones: 'Others +didn't want to make waves; I wanted to drain the swamp.'"" +After C-SPAN went on the air, in 1979, the cozy atmosphere that encouraged both deliberation and back-room deals +began to yield to transparency and, with it, posturing. ""So Damn Much Money,"" a recent book by the Washington Post +reporter Robert G. Kaiser, traces the spectacular rise of Washington lobbying to the same period. Liberal Republicans +began to disappear, and as Southern Democrats died out they were replaced by conservative Republicans. Bipartisan +coalitions on both wings of the Senate vanished. The institutionalist gave way to the free agent, who controlled his own +fund-raising apparatus and media presence, and whose electoral base was a patchwork of single-issue groups. Members +of both parties—Howard Metzenbaum, the Ohio Democrat; Jesse Helms, the North Carolina Republican—took to +regularly using the Senate's rules to tie up business for narrowly ideological reasons. The number of filibusters shot up in +the eighties and continued to rise in the following decades, as the parties kept alternating control of the Senate and +escalating a procedural arms race, routinely blocking the confirmation of executive and judicial appointees. Democrats +filibustered Republican nominees to the bench; then Republicans threatened to ban the filibuster in such cases—the so- +called ""nuclear option."" Older members were perturbed when, in 2004, the Republican Majority Leader, Bill Frist, went to +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +South Dakota to campaign against the Democratic Minority Leader, Tom Daschle (who went on to lose). A few years +earlier, such an action would have been unthinkable. +The weakened institution could no longer withstand pressures from outside its walls; as money and cameras rushed in, +independent minds fell more and more in line with the partisans. Rough parity between the two parties meant that every +election had the potential to make or break a majority, crushing the incentive to cooperate across the aisle. The Senate, +no longer a fount of ideas, became a backwater of the U.S. government. During the Clinton years, the main action was +between the White House and the Gingrich House of Representatives; during the Bush years, the Republican Senate +majority abdicated the oversight role that could have placed a vital check on executive power. +Norman Ornstein, a congressional expert at the American Enterprise Institute, said that the Senate has increasingly +become populated by ""ideologues and charlatans."" He went on, ""When we do get good people who come in, they very +quickly get ground up by the dynamic and the culture of the parties. And once you get there, look at what it takes to stay +there."" He spoke of Charles Grassley, the Iowa Republican, who, nearing the end of his career, spent much of last year +working closely with his friend Max Baucus on the health-care bill. Then, in August, Grassley went home and, faced with +angry Republican voters and the prospect of a primary challenge from the right, started warning about ""pulling the plug on +Grandma."" Ornstein added that similar pressures had led John McCain to begin ""altering his behavior and abandoning +every issue, including campaign-finance reform."" +One morning in April, I visited Harry McPherson, the former L.B.J. aide, at the offices of the legal and lobbying firm D. L. +A. Piper, in downtown Washington. McPherson, who is eighty, had on his desk the firm's spiral-bound directory for the +111th Congress. I asked him who, in Johnsonian terms, were the whales of the current Senate. McPherson ran his finger +down the list of senators. He did it again. ""I'm trying here, looking for a remote descendant. Judas Priest, look at this."" He +was stumped. ""Well, I see some good people, I see some people who are going to get coalitions together over time."" He +put the directory aside. ""I'm just having the damnedest time."" +Down the hall from McPherson's office was that of Mel Martinez, a former Republican senator from Florida; he was hired +last year, two weeks after resigning his Senate seat without completing his first term. (He has since moved on to +JPMorgan Chase.) William Cohen, the former Maine senator and Secretary of Defense, has an office downstairs. Tom +Daschle works at D. L. A. Piper; his predecessor as Democratic leader, George Mitchell, was the firm's chairman, until +President Obama appointed him to be his Middle East envoy. One feature of the diminished U.S. senator is the ease with +which he moves from legislating to lobbying. Between 1998 and 2004, half the senators who left office became lobbyists. +In 2007, Trent Lott, a Republican leader in the Senate less than a year into his fourth term, abruptly resigned and formed +a lobbying firm with former Senator John Breaux, just a few weeks before a new law took effect requiring a two-year +waiting period between serving and lobbying. +When you spend your days at the Senate, it's easy to forget about everything else. The House of Representatives seems +miles away (it's just down a corridor and across the rotunda), the White House is another country, and actual foreign +countries are unimaginable. The place remains insular, labyrinthine, and opaque—even physically. Senators commute +thirty seconds between their offices and the chamber by electric subway cars that run along a tunnel under Constitution +Avenue. Many signs are misleading or obsolete (the gilded lettering over the visitors' gallery says ""Men's Gallery""), and +the Capitol is filled with secret passageways and spare rooms, called hideaways, doled out according to seniority, where +senators can read, drink, doze, and wait for the buzzer announcing an imminent vote. The most pervasive authority over +the institution is not the Constitution or the Bible but, rather, an impenetrable sixteen-hundred-page tome, by Floyd M. +Riddick, called ""Senate Procedure: Precedents and Practices,"" which only the late Robert Byrd, of West Virginia, was +known to have read in its entirety. The procedures are so abstruse that a parliamentarian must sit below the presiding +officer and, essentially, tell him or her what to say. +After half a century, the picture given by Preminger's ""Advise and Consent"" is still faintly visible. ""The Senate, by its +nature, is a place where consensus reigns and personal relationships are paramount,"" Lamar Alexander said. ""And that's +not changed."" Which is exactly the problem: it's a self-governing body that depends on the reasonableness of its +members to function. Sarah Binder, a congressional scholar at George Washington University, said, ""To have a chamber +that rules by unanimous consent—it's nutty! Especially when you've got Jim Bunning to please."" +In 2006 and 2008, sixteen Democrats entered the Senate, giving the Party its current majority of fifty-nine to forty-one +(counting two independents). They include moderates, like Jon Tester, of Montana, and Mark Warner, of Virginia; liberals, +like Sherrod Brown, of Ohio, and Sheldon Whitehouse, of Rhode Island; policy specialists, like Amy Klobuchar, of +Minnesota, and Jeff Merkley; and iconoclasts, like Claire McCaskill. Their interest in legislating has won the admiration of +senior senators. ""If they can stay, I think they'll be terrific,"" Chris Dodd said. ""My worry is they won't stay. Because it's not +productive."" +The Democratic class of 2008 arrived with President Obama, expecting to usher in 6 dynamic new era. Instead, their +young Senate careers have passed in a daily slog of threatened filibusters and ""secret holds""—when a senator +anonymously objects to bringing an appointment up for a vote, which requires unanimous consent. On April 20th, Claire +McCaskill took the trouble to read off the names of fifty-six Obama nominees languishing in the limbo of secret holds, and +Jon Kyl objected to every one of them. Just getting a bill to the floor for debate can require days of tactical gamesmanship +between the party leaders. There were times when Warner wondered if anyone had ever quit in the first year. Michael +Bennet said, ""We find ourselves at a moment in our history when the questions are huge ones, not small ones, and where +things have been put off for a really long period of time."" He mentioned the national debt, energy policy, and the financial +crisis. ""Yet you have a Senate that's designed not to advance change but to slow it."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +We were talking in his hideaway, a windowless room in the Capitol basement, which had a mini-fridge stocked with bottled +water, black leatherette furniture circa 1962, and a TV tuned to C-SPAN2 on mute; Senator Kyl's mouth was moving. +Bennet, the former superintendent of schools in Denver, was appointed to a vacant seat in 2009, and already has to +defend it this year. He described the Senate with the dry bluntness of an outsider who hasn't allowed himself to grow too +attached. Bennet repeated a story he had heard. about a new congressman giving his maiden speech: ""And then some +more veteran guy came over and said, 'Son, you're talking like this place is on the level. It's not on the level.' As the fifteen +months or so have gone by that I've been here, the less on the level it seems."" +Earlier this year, the Senate's procedural absurdities became national news twice in one month. On February 4th, +Con gressDaily reported that Richard Shelby, an Alabama Republican, was secretly blocking the confirmation of seventy +Obama appointees over a dispute involving defense earmarks for his•state. (His tactics exposed, Shelby—whose office +maintains that he was responsible for fewer than fifty holds—lifted all but three.) Later that month, Bunning spent several +days and a late night on the Senate floor, filibustering to prevent benefits from being paid to millions of unemployed +Americans. When Merkley tried to reason with him, Bunning responded, ""Tough shit."" (Eventually, Republicans persuaded +Bunning to stop.) +These incidents elicited a brief outcry, but the extent of the Senate's routine folly remains largely hidden. For example, +Grassley and Ron Wyden, of Oregon, have been trying since 1997 to end the practice of secret holds, without success. In +2007, the Senate passed a bill banning secret holds that last longer than six days. But to get around the ban two or more +senators can pass the hold back and forth—it's called ""rolling holds""—and their party leader facilitates the game by +keeping their names secret. +Many of the Senate's antique rules and precedents have been warped beyond recognition by the modern pressures of +partisanship. The hold, for example, was a courtesy extended to senators in the days of horse travel, when they needed +time to get back to Washington and read a bill or question an appointee before casting their vote. Sarah Binder, who co- +authored a book on the filibuster, calls the procedure a historical accident: in 1806, the Senate got rid of a little-used rule +that allowed the ""previous question"" to be called to a vote. Suddenly, there was no inherent limit on debate, and by the +eighteen-thirties senators had begun taking advantage of this loophole, derailing the proceedings by getting up and talking +until their voice, legs, or bladder gave out. (The word ""filibuster' comes from vrijbuiter—old Dutch for ""looter."") +In 1917, Woodrow Wilson, with his wartime legislative agenda blocked by filibusters, forced the Senate to pass Rule XXII, +which allowed a two-thirds majority to bring a floor debate to an end with a ""cloture"" vote. For decades, the rule was rarely +used; between 1919 and 1971, there were only forty-nine cloture votes, fewer than one per year. In the seventies and +eighties, the annual average rose to about a dozen. (Frustration with this increase led the Senate, in 1975, to lower the +threshold for cloture to sixty votes.) In the nineties and early aughts, the average went up to twenty-five or thirty a year, as +both parties escalated their use of the filibuster when they found themselves in the minority. After the Republicans lost +their majority in 2006, filibusters became everyday events: there were a hundred and twelve cloture votes in 2007 and +2008, and this session Republicans are on target to break their own filibuster record. +The tally of cloture votes reflects only a small fraction of senatorial obstruction. Three hundred and forty-five bills passed +by the House have been prevented from even coming up for debate in the Senate. ""Why?"" Steny Hoyer, the outraged +Democratic Majority Leader of the House, asked me. ""Because they do not do their business in a way that facilitates +noncontroversial things. Thankfully, the House of Representatives is not becoming the Senate."" Last week, six House +Democrats expressed their displeasure with the upper chamber by staging a sit-in of sorts on the Senate floor. +Seventy-six nominees for judgeships and executive posts have been approved by committees but, because of blocks, +haven't come up for a vote in the full Senate, leaving courtrooms idle and jobs unfilled across the upper levels of the +Obama Administration. (The Democrats also practiced the art of blocking nominees during the Bush Administration.) +There's often no objection to the individual being blocked: after an eight-month hold, Martha Johnson, nominated to run +the General Services Administration, was confirmed 96-0. On an issue like health-care reform, when the objection was +substantive, Republicans ransacked Riddick's ""Senate Procedure"" for every conceivable way to delay a debate and vote. +Judd Gregg even sent a memo on stalling tactics to his Republican colleagues. Tom Coburn demanded the reading aloud +of an entire seven-hundred-and-sixty-seven-page amendment proposed by Bernie Sanders, the Vermont socialist; Senate +clerks, working in half-hour shifts, were three hours into the chore when Sanders withdrew the amendment in frustration. +Under McConnell, Republicans have consistently consumed as much of the Senate's calendar as possible with legislative +maneuvering. The strategy is not to extend deliberation of the Senate's agenda but to prevent it. Tom Harkin, who first +proposed reform of the filibuster in 1995, called his Republican colleagues ""nihilists,"" who want to create chaos because it +serves their ideology. ""If there's chaos, things will tend toward simple solutions,"" Harkin said. ""In chaos people don't listen +to reason."" McConnell did not respond to requests for an interview, but he has often argued that the Republican strategy +reflects the views of a majority of Americans. In March, he told the Times, ""To the extent that they""—the Democrats— +""want to do things that we think are in the political center and would be helpful to the country, we'll be helpful. To the +extent they are trying to turn us into a Western European country, we are not going to be helpful."" +One of the mysteries of the Senate is how Mitch McConnell has been able to keep his members in line, on vote after vote. +Why do moderates with years of experience and their own power base back home—Richard Lugar, of Indiana; Susan +Collins, of Maine; George Voinovich, of Ohio—keep siding with the more extreme members of their caucus? Alexander +said that McConnell listens well to all his members, adding, ""When you have your back against the wall and the gallows +are hanging in front of you, it tends to unify. Operating with forty members—it concentrates the mind."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +Lindsey Graham described to the Times how McConnell exhorted his caucus after the disastrous 2008 election: ""He said +if we didn't stick together on big things, we wouldn't be relevant."" Last December, the Republicans decided to filibuster a +military-spending bill in order to delay the looming vote on health care until as close to Christmas as possible. Thad +Cochran, the Republican ranking member of the Appropriations Committee, promised Daniel Inouye, the chairman, that +he wouldn't join the effort. But at the last minute Cochran, who has been in the Senate since 1979 and brings +disproportionate amounts of defense money to Mississippi, told Reid that his leadership wouldn't allow him to vote with +the Democrats and end the filibuster—even on a matter of national security. (The Democrats were able to impose cloture, +and the vote on health care finally took place on Christmas Eve.) +Republican defections have been rare. In early 2009, Collins and Olympia Snowe, also of Maine, voted for the stimulus +bill, along with Arlen Specter (who promptly switched parties). Snowe also voted for the Finance Committee's health-care- +reform bill last October, the only Republican to do so. But in December, at the pivotal moment, she voted against the +version that went before the full Senate. ""I wasn't interested in expanding this program beyond the Finance Committee +version—it grew by a thousand pages,"" Snowe said. She wasn't included in the negotiations with White House officials +that took place in an elegant conference room across from Reid's suite of offices, and said that the Democrats ""did not +accept any of my proposals. As I said to the President, it was all windup and no pitch."" McConnell was able to exploit her +alienation. A friend of Snowe cited another reason for her reversal: ""She actually said to me once that she had never felt +the pressure that she felt on health care, never before had that pressure been quite as evident to her or quite as real or +troubling. Kyl and McConnell were saying things like 'You just can't let us down, we're all in this together. You're a senior +Republican member of this caucus, and you just have to hang tough with us. We expect it and you're going to do it.' "" +Reid doesn't use such tough tactics; he has achieved his position, in spite of his public shortcomings, by being the senator +who helped other Democrats, always answered their calls, and got them what they wanted through masterly +maneuvering. This has made him enormously popular within the Democratic caucus, but it doesn't give him the leverage +of McConnell, let alone of Lyndon Johnson. +In the current Senate, it has become normal for a handful of senators, sometimes representing just ten or twenty per cent +of the country's population, to hold everything up. And the status quo has become sufficiently frustrating that a few new +senators have considered a radical option: mutiny. +Tom Udall, who is sixty-two, is older than most freshman senators. He has the crow's-feet of a Westerner who has spent +time in the sun, and a slow, good-natured voice. His father, Stewart, was an Arizona congressman and the Interior +Secretary for Presidents Kennedy and Johnson; his uncle Mo was a legendary Arizona representative; his cousin Mark is +a freshman senator from Colorado. Udall served five terms in the House before winning a Senate seat from New Mexico, +in 2008. And yet he has the air of a political Candide—he is always earnest, capable of disappointment but not cynicism. +""I ran on the idea that the Senate should not be a graveyard for good ideas,"" he said. ""Then to be on the inside—the thing +that strikes you is how one senator can hold up the whole show."" +In his first year in office, Udall decided to do something audacious: he would try to change the Senate's rules. +Customarily, the rules continue session after session, and a provision in Rule XXII requires sixty-seven votes to amend +them, making it extremely difficult. (""Rule XXII is a Catch-22,"" Ted Kennedy used to joke.) Udall embraced a different +idea—the ""constitutional option."" Article I, Section 5 of the Constitution states that ""each House may determine the Rules +of its Proceedings"" at the beginning of the new Congress. So, in theory, a senator could take the floor next January and +propose debating its rules from scratch, including the filibuster. New rules could be passed with a simple majority. There's +even a precedent for this: moves to revisit the rules by invoking the constitutional option have been made three times, +most recently in 1975. Udall has spent much of the past year trying to build support for the idea. +At the request of Udall and others, Schumer, who is the chairman of the Rules Committee, has held a series of hearings +on the filibuster, calling witnesses such as Sarah Binder, the historian, and Walter Mondale, who was in the Senate when +the constitutional option was invoked in 1975. Dick Durbin, the second-highest-ranking Democrat, has organized working +groups among newer members on other internal reforms, such as ending secret holds and choosing committee chairs by +caucus vote rather than by seniority. (Lamar Alexander wryly suggested to me that Schumer and Durbin were competing +for the favor of newer members, in case Harry Reid loses his seat in the fall and they run against each other for Majority +Leader.) +For Republican institutionalists, such as Alexander and Gregg, the push for rules reform is folly. ""If you want a +parliamentary form of government, go over to the House,"" Gregg, who is about to retire, scoffed. ""Why even run for the +Senate?"" Udall's plan for next January, he said, would be a ""gigantic mistake."" +""They'll get over it,"" Alexander said of the Democrats' enthusiasm for rules reform. ""And they'll get over it quicker if they're +in the minority next January. Because they'll instantly see the value of slowing the Senate down to consider whatever they +have to say."" He added that the Senate ""may be getting done about as much as the American people want done."" The +President's ambitious agenda, after all, has upset a lot of voters, across the political spectrum. None of the Republicans I +spoke to agreed with the contention that the Senate is ""broken."" Alexander claimed that he and other Republicans were +exercising the moderating, thoughtful influence on legislation that the founders wanted in the Senate. ""The Senate wasn't +created to be efficient,"" he argued. ""It was created to be inefficient."" At one of the filibuster hearings, in April, Alexander, +sitting across the table from Udall, said that, for all the times the Democrats charge the Republicans with obstructing +legislation, ""we could say that's the number of times the majority has tried to cut off our right to debate, our right to offer +amendments, which is the essence of the Senate."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +Newcomers like Udall seem to think that the Senate has grown so absurd and extreme that some kind of reform is +inevitable. Perhaps they need more time to plumb the depths of the institution's intransigence. According to Sarah Binder, +a change in rules is extremely unlikely; Republicans would be implacably opposed to, say, weakening the filibuster, and +so would some Democrats, especially long-serving ones. ""I would oppose that,"" Chris Dodd said, adding of the freshmen, +""These are people who have never been in the minority."" For older Democrats, who have put in their years, grown adept +at working the rules, and now chair powerful committees, the reform impulse could be a threat. (Among senior senators, +the sole enthusiast for rules reform is Tom Harkin.) One senator spoke of the Senate as being divided not between +whales and minnows but, rather, between bulls and calves. The older Democrats are too accustomed to the Senate's +ways to share the frustrations of the newcomers; the handful of older moderate Republicans are too weak to challenge the +newer radicals who now dominate the caucus. +Even if the freshmen Democrats can somehow reform the filibuster next January, the Senate will remain a sclerotic, +wasteful, unhappy body. The deepest source of its problems is not rules and precedents but, rather, its human beings, +who have created a culture where Tocqueville's ""lofty thoughts"" and ""generous impulses"" have no place. +A few days after passing health-care reform, the Senate struggled to its feet to take on a second large task. Financial +regulatory reform should have been the easiest piece of major legislation of the Obama Presidency, the likeliest to win +real bipartisan support. The financial crisis had been catastrophic for millions of Americans, and after the 2008 bailout +Wall Street had become even more hated than the Senate was. In April, a lineup of bankers from Goldman Sachs +appeared before Senator Levin's subcommittee on investigations, and managed to appear as arrogant, callous, and +evasive as their reputations had suggested. The public demanded action. Some Republicans had a genuine desire to +pass a bill. If health-care reform had been a war of attrition, financial reform was a promising liaison. +The affair began with a Republican, Bob Corker, and a Democrat, Mark Warner—both multimillionaires serving their first +term, both considered centrists. Corker is a small, dapper former construction magnate who became the mayor of +Chattanooga; Warner is a tall, preppily dressed former telecommunications entrepreneur who became the governor of +Virginia. Chris Dodd, the Banking Committee chairman, assigned them to work together on the section of the bill having to +do with the liquidation of troubled firms—making sure that there would never be another taxpayer bailout. They worked +through the winter, in Warner's office, in Corker's office, over dinner, sometimes without staff, as if they were members of +a Senate from the past. They hosted a series of afternoon seminars, inviting guests such as Ben Bernanke, Alan +Greenspan, and Sheila Bair. Corker and Warner were sometimes said to be the only Democrat and Republican still +talking to each other. In January, Business Week called them the Senate's ""Odd Couple."" By February, they had finished +their work. +Meanwhile, discussions about the entire bill between Dodd and Richard Shelby, the top Republican on the committee, +dragged on, repeatedly breaking down. Finally, on February 10th, Dodd called Corker, who, though he was one of the +committee's junior members, agreed to be the chairman's Republican negotiating partner. When Corker informed +McConnell and Shelby, they expressed surprise. ""It was an odd place to be,"" Corker recalled. ""And yet that night we +began meeting."" The junior Republican savored the rare experience of creating, rather than opposing, legislation. In +response, Shelby's conservative staff tried to undermine Corker, spreading rumors among Republicans and their lobbyists +that he was giving too much away. (A Shelby aide said that staff members were simply informing other Republicans of the +Party's line on financial reform.) +On March 10th, Dodd concluded that he had to move a bill to the floor. He called Corker and said, ""You've been a great +partner."" He was ending their talks after only a month. ""It's a little stunning, I've got to be honest,"" Corker told reporters +afterward. Someone close to the negotiations compared Corker to Dickens's Miss Havisham, unable to get over the +rebuff, forever awaiting the arrival of her groom, all her clocks stopped. Corker later said that Dodd had ended the talks +under pressure from the White House and other Democrats. Dodd said that Corker had been unable to bring any other +Republicans with him. ""Baloney,"" Corker said. ""If Dodd had reached an agreement with me, we'd've had at least twenty- +five Republican votes."" +The bill that Dodd brought before the Senate, after a year of discussions with Democrats and Republicans alike, +incorporated the bipartisan plan of Warner and Corker to prevent another bank bailout: setting up a fifty-billion-dollar fund, +paid for by the banks, to insure orderly liquidation, and establishing a risk council to detect warning signs of another crisis. +But in mid-April Mitch McConnell—who had just met with Wall Street executives in New York, and was now parroting +talking points from a memo written by the Republican strategist Frank Luntz—called it a ""partisan bill"" that ""will guarantee +perpetual taxpayer bailout of Wall Street banks."" McConnell presented a letter, signed by all forty-one Republicans, +suggesting that they would filibuster the financial-reform bill. +His remarks amounted to a repudiation of Corker's work as well as of Dodd's. The next day, April 15th, Corker pleaded +with his colleagues, in his Tennessee twang, ""Let's come to the floor and let's act like adults. Let's tone down the rhetoric. +Let's don't exaggerate the pluses or minuses. Let's do what the Senate was created to do. . . . We were supposed to be +the people that took some of the red-hot activities that sometimes come from the other body and sat down with cooler +heads and resolved the issues like adults. We can do that. As a matter of fact, I would say, if we cannot do that on +financial regulation, an issue that really doesn't have any real philosophical bearings to it . . ."" Corker didn't allow the +thought to ripen—he had already gone farther than almost any Republican would have dared. +Dodd spoke later in the day and completed Corker's speech: ""I know my friends on the other side of the aisle are faced +with a difficult choice between supporting their party leadership and participating in this complicated, difficult debate. I am +not naïve. I know that is a hard place to be. But if we can't act like U.S. senators for the sake of this issue . . . then why +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +are we even here?"" He went on, ""We work for an American public that is sick and tired of feeling like no one is looking out +for their interests, like the political hacks and lobbyists hold all the cards in these discussions. The minority seems intent +on proving them right. . . . I have been here a long time. I know this institution is better than that. I know there are friends +of mine on the other side of the aisle who care about this bill, who want to be a part of the debate, who want to be part of +the solution."" +In the same speech, Dodd joined the partisan fight, accusing McConnell of lying about the bill. Turning crimson-faced, he +chopped the air with his hand as he shouted, ""I have to ask myself, why did I go through this process over the last four or +five months, agreeing to much of what they were offering, and there is not a single political vote to show for it. . . . I have +to say to the younger members, the newer members coming along: be careful!"" +Corker, having heard that Dodd was speaking, returned to the chamber and asked to respond. ""You and I went a long +way,"" Corker told Dodd. ""Then we stopped. On March 10th it ended. I understand that, look, you were losing Democrats +on your committee."" +""And I was not gaining Republicans,"" Dodd replied. +""You had one, and that is all you asked for when you started. I never said I could speak for anybody but myself. And I did +not leave the table."" Corker urged Dodd to keep talking to Republicans—their differences could be sorted out in a few +days. +But this was not McConnell's agenda. Instead, financial reform became a slightly more polite repeat of the health-care- +reform brawl: the Republicans threatened filibusters, the Democrats threatened all-nighters, and thousands of lobbyists +prowled the Capitol, charging their Wall Street clients more than a billion dollars. On April 28th, I was sitting in the ornate +Reception Room with Jim Manley, Reid's spokesman. On the other side of the wall, there was the noise of furniture +scraping across a tile floor. ""Those are cots being set up in the L.B.J. Room,"" Manley said. ""Very little happens around +here without a deadline."" The cots persuaded Republicans to allow the bill to move to the floor for debate. A few weeks +later, on May 20th, yet another filibuster was defeated by yet another cloture motion, and financial reform finally came to a +vote. It passed, 59-39. Only four Republicans had joined the majority. Corker wasn't among them. He had even voted for +an amendment, offered by his Republican colleague Jeff Sessions, of Alabama, that would have scrapped Corker's work +of many months with Warner. +""The idea of watching Bob Corker vote for the Sessions amendment!"" Dodd said afterward, sitting in his red-curtained +office, under a print of Holbein's portrait of Thomas More. ""It's the Senate, I guess."" McConnell's strategy of obstruction +had once again come close to succeeding, Dodd said, but he knew that a ""shrinking number"" of Republicans were +frustrated. The previous day, Dodd had said to Susan Collins, ""God, I would have loved to have you as my ranking +member on this."" Collins responded, ""We could have had such a great time on this bill."" +Warner, who said that he believed in bipartisanship because ""the American people don't trust either political party enough +to give them a blank check,"" was astonished that so few Republicans voted for financial reform. ""There was zero +substantive reason why this couldn't have been eighty votes,"" he said. I asked him why Bob Corker had voted no on the +bill. Warner started to talk about the consumer-protection title, and then said, ""If you want to vote against something, you +can always find your reasons."" +But Corker hadn't seemed to want to vote against it. He had spent months trying to act like a U.S. senator, alienating +himself from his own party and then the other party, and on the day of the vote he held the floor for the better part of thirty +minutes, as if he were still reluctant to let the effort go. ""I am obviously disappointed,"" he said. ""I think I have spent as +much time as any senator. . . on policy regarding our financial system. I think any bill—even this bill—has good things in +it. There is no question. And I appreciate the thrust. But I think there is a lot of overreaching, and I think not enough time +was spent on some of the core issues."" +As the senators cast their votes, I noticed Robert Kaiser, the author of ""So Damn Much Money,"" in the press gallery. I later +asked him if, with the passage of two big reform bills in three months, we were witnessing a possible renewal of the +Senate. ""If you can engage public opinion in a way politicians can understand, public opinion can still blow away money +and interest groups,"" he said. ""But over the past few decades the reflex has grown in the Senate that, all things +considered, it's better to avoid than to take on big issues. This is the kind of thing that drives Michael Bennet nutty: here +you've arrived in the United States Senate and you can't do fuck-all about the destruction of the planet."" +After the final vote on financial reform, the Republicans flew home, and the Democratic leaders held a press conference, +smiling before the microphones outside the Senate chamber. Reid said, ""For those who wanted to protect Wall Street, it +didn't work."" He then excused himself: he had to join Biden for a telephone fund-raiser with ""some Nevadans."" +Durbin said, ""I was stunned that only four Republicans would join us in passing this historic legislation. What does it take +to bring the Republican Party into the conversation about the future of America?"" +Dodd, glowing with triumph, said, ""I wanted to demonstrate that the Senate of the United States could conduct its +business much as our founders intended. We did that."" +On July 21st, President Obama signed the completed bill. The two lasting achievements of this Senate, financial +regulation and health care, required a year and a half of legislative warfare that nearly destroyed the body. They +depended on a set of circumstances—a large majority of Democrats, a charismatic President with an electoral mandate, +and a national crisis—that will not last long or be repeated anytime soon. Two days after financial reform became law, +Harry Reid announced that the Senate would not take up comprehensive energy-reform legislation for the rest of the year. +And so climate change joined immigration, job creation, food safety, pilot training, veterans' care, campaign finance, +transportation security, labor law, mine safety, wildfire management, and scores of executive and judicial appointments on +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770192 Date: 08/31/2015 +the list of matters that the world's greatest deliberative body is incapable of addressing.

""The obstructionism has become +mindless."" +The Senators were in the Capitol, sunk into armchairs before the marble fireplace in the press lounge, which is directly +behind the Senate chamber. It was four-thirty on a Wednesday afternoon. McCaskill, in a matching maroon jacket and +top, looked exasperated; Levin glowered over his spectacles. +""Also, it's a dumb rule in itself,"" McCaskill said. ""It's time we started looking at some of these rules."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +She was referring to Senate Rule XXVI, Paragraph 5, which requires unanimous consent for committees and +subcommittees to hold hearings after two in the afternoon while the Senate is in session. Both Levin and McCaskill had +scheduled hearings that day for two-thirty. Typically, it wouldn't be difficult to get colleagues to waive the rule; a general +and an admiral had flown halfway around the world to appear before Levin's Armed Services Committee, and +McCaskill's Subcommittee on Contracting Oversight of the Homeland Security Committee was investigating the training +of Afghan police. But this was March 24th, the day after President Barack Obama signed the health-care-reform bill, in a +victory ceremony at the White House; it was also the day that the Senate was to vote on a reconciliation bill for health- +care reform, approved by the House three nights earlier, which would retroactively remove the new law's most +embarrassing sweetheart deals and complete the yearlong process of passing universal health care. Republicans, who +had fought the bill as a bloc, were in no mood to make things easy. +So, four hours earlier, when Levin went to the Senate floor and asked for consent to hold his hearing, Senator Richard +Burr, Republican of North Carolina, and a member of Levin's committee, had refused. ""I have no personal objection to +continuing,"" Burr said. But, he added, ""there is objection on our side of the aisle. Therefore, I would have to object."" +Burr had to object on behalf of his party because he was the only Republican in the chamber when Levin spoke. In +general, when senators give speeches on the floor, their colleagues aren't around, and the two or three who might be +present aren't listening. They're joking with aides, or e-mailing Twitter ideas to their press secretaries, or getting their +first look at a speech they're about to give before the eight unmanned cameras that provide a live feed to C-SPAN2. The +presiding officer of the Senate—freshmen of the majority party take rotating, hour-long shifts intended to introduce +them to the ways of the institution—sits in his chair on the dais, scanning his BlackBerry or reading a Times article about +the Senate. Michael Bennet, a freshman Democrat from Colorado, said, ""Sit and watch us for seven days—just watch the +floor. You know what you'll see happening? Nothing. When I'm in the chair, I sit there thinking, I wonder what they're +doing in China right now?"" +Between speeches, there are quorum calls, time killers in which a Senate clerk calls the roll at the rate of one name +every few minutes. The press gallery, above the dais, is typically deserted, as journalists prefer to hunker down in the +press lounge, surfing the Web for analysis of current Senate negotiations; television screens alert them if something of +interest actually happens in the chamber. The only people who pay attention to a speech are the Senate stenographers. +On this afternoon, two portly bald men in suits stood facing the speaker from a few feet away, tapping at the +transcription machines, which resembled nineteenth-century cash registers, slung around their necks. The Senate +chamber is an intimate room where men and women go to talk to themselves for the record. +Like many other aspects of senatorial procedure, Rule XXVI, Paragraph 5 is a relic from the days when senators had to +hover around their desks to know what was happening on the floor during the main afternoon debate. (The desks, some +built as long ago as 1819, are mahogany, and their lids lift up, like those in an old schoolhouse; the desks of the Majority +and Minority Leader are still equipped with brass spittoons.) In the press lounge, McCaskill said, with light sarcasm, +""Somebody told me the rule is to make sure people pay attention to what's happening on the floor during debate and +not be distracted by committee work. Clearly, it's an old rule."" +The Republicans had turned this old rule into a new means of obstruction. There would be no hearings that afternoon; +the general and the admiral would have to come back another day. Like investment bankers on Wall Street, senators +these days direct much of their creative energy toward the manipulation of arcane rules and loopholes, scoring short- +term successes while magnifying their institution's broader dysfunction. +Around five o'clock, the chamber began to fill, as the reconciliation bill came up for a vote; there were twenty-three +amendments pending, all from Republicans, and perhaps many more to come. Ordinarily, debate and voting on an +amendment might take two legislative days, but under the rules of the reconciliation bill the senators were to dispatch +the amendments one after another, as in a hot-dog-eating contest, with a minute of debate for each side. The goal was +to finish the bill by the end of the evening, so that senators wouldn't miss a day of their spring recess—apparently, the +only thing worse than a government takeover of the health-care system. The usual longueurs of the Senate, where forty +minutes can tick away on the antique clock above the rear double doors without a word's being spoken, were about to +yield to a frenzy. Harry Reid, the Majority Leader, from Nevada, had predicted that the process, known as Vote-O-Rama, +would go past two in the morning, and had warned senators to stay close to the chamber. +Max Baucus, of Montana, the manager of the bill for the Democrats, rose and said, ""This is the first time in recent +memory that a reconciliation bill has all the amendments on one side only. These are clearly amendments designed to +kill the reconciliation and, therefore, kill health-care reform. So I very much hope that all of these amendments are +defeated."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +Tall, gaunt Judd Gregg, of New Hampshire, the bill's Republican manager, took the floor. ""The position on the other side +of the aisle is: no amendments allowed, even if they are good,"" he said. Indignation rouged his cheeks, and his voice rose +half an octave. ""Obviously, they presume the Republican Party is an inconvenience. The democratic process is an +inconvenience. It also appears, considering the opposition to this out in America, that the American people are an +inconvenience."" +The Senate chamber is laid out in four concentric semicircles, with adjacent desks almost touching on the crowded +Democratic side, and the desks of the much smaller Republican minority spaced loosely apart. The design is meant to +emphasize the senators' unity. But Baucus and Gregg avoided eye contact across the six feet of aisle that now divides +the chamber into two constantly warring factions. Senators are required, by custom, to speak of one another in the third +person, directing their anger and sarcasm through whichever poor freshman happens to be the presiding officer at the +moment. Rule XIX, Paragraphs 2 and 3—one of the original rules drawn from Thomas Jefferson's ""Manual of +Parliamentary Practice""—bars senators from imputing unworthy conduct or motives to another senator, and from +insulting any senator's state. But there is no rule against finger-wagging, and Baucus wagged his at Gregg while shouting +at Al Franken, of Minnesota, who had started a shift in the presiding officer's chair: ""Mr. President, make no mistake, the +intent of every single one of the amendments offered on the other side of the aisle is to kill health-care reform.... A +senator on the other side of the aisle stood up and said that this is hopefully the President's Waterloo. They want to kill +health-care reform!"" +The voice of Stuart Smalley filled the chamber: ""The time of the senator has expired."" +For the next nine hours, the chamber became the stage of a theatrical whose ending, like almost everything that +happens on the Senate floor, was known in advance to all. The Republican goal in Vote-O-Rama was to embarrass the +Democrats while appearing to suggest useful changes; the Democratic goal was to prevent any change to the bill, so that +it wouldn't have to return to the House, where it might be voted down. Several of the Republican amendments had +been designed to make Democrats look hypocritical, by forcing them to vote against policies that the Party typically +supports. One amendment, for example, declared that the health-care bill could not be linked to a tax hike on +individuals making less than two hundred thousand dollars a year. Other amendments were more nakedly partisan, and +outlandish. David Vitter, a Louisiana Republican, proposed an amendment that repealed the entire law. Senator Tom +Coburn, a Republican obstetrician from Oklahoma, introduced an amendment to insure that veterans diagnosed with +mental illness would not be denied the right to own firearms, and another to prevent ""convicted child molesters, rapists, +and sex offenders"" from buying erectile-dysfunction drugs with taxpayer funds. Coburn got through the minute he was +allotted to explain his Viagra amendment without cracking a smile. ""This is not a game amendment,"" he insisted. ""It +actually saves money."" +So many senators snickered that the presiding officer banged his gavel for order. +""The amendment offered by the senator from Oklahoma makes a mockery of this Senate,"" Baucus declared. ""It is a crass +political stunt aimed at making thirty-second commercials, not public policy."" Baucus asked for the yeas and nays, and a +clerk called the roll at a ragged pace. ""Mr. Coburn, Mr. Cochran, Ms. Collins."" Thirty-five-second pause. ""Mr. Conrad, Mr. +Corker."" Ten seconds. ""Mr. Cornyn."" Senators pay no attention to the sound of their name; they cast votes when they're +so inclined—wandering in late, shuffling down the chamber's gentle blue-carpeted steps to the swarm of colleagues +milling about in the well, where the clerks sit at a table, and then holding a finger up or down. At one point, John +McCain—now just one of a hundred senators and struggling to stay in office—spent half a minute waving stiff-armed, +trying to catch the eye of a clerk so he could cast his vote. In the end, two Democrats—Evan Bayh, of Indiana, and Ben +Nelson, of Nebraska—joined the Republicans in opposing Viagra for sex offenders. The amendment was defeated. +The carpeting in the chamber absorbs voices, and during the long night one of the few that rose above the muffled +drone was that of Charles Schumer, who said to Gregg, ""Get to work! Stop screwing around with health care!"" +Sporadically, a sharp cackle emanated from Al Franken, who wandered the chamber, looking for Republicans he could +charm into laughing. Observed from the press gallery, the senators in their confined space began to resemble zoo +animals—Levin a shambling brown bear, John Thune a loping gazelle, Jim Bunning a maddened grizzly. Each one +displayed a limited set of behaviors: in conversations, John Kerry planted himself a few inches away, loomed, and +clamped his hands down on a colleague's shoulders. Joe Lieberman patted everyone on the back. It became clear which +senators were loners (Russ Feingold, Daniel Akaka) and which were social (Blanche Lincoln, Lindsey Graham); which +senators were important (Dick Durbin, Jon Kyl) and which were ignored (Bayh, Bunning). +Past midnight, Durbin slumped at his desk, one hand over his face, yawning painfully. Susan Collins was going through +her mail. Twenty-three amendments had been voted down, and the Republicans were proposing a fresh batch. ""Can we +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +get some order?"" Bunning growled, before he introduced a proposal to let senior citizens opt out of parts of Medicare. It +was the only amendment that any Republicans joined the Democrats to defeat. +Harry Reid controls the Senate's schedule, but Mitch McConnell, of Kentucky, who is the Minority Leader, can object. +Since nearly everything in the Senate depends on unanimous consent, the main business of the place is a continuous +negotiation between these two supremely unsentimental men. That night, they played a game of chicken: McConnell, +unsmiling, his eyes riveted ahead, held out the prospect of dozens more amendments; Reid, a former boxer, was +hunched and mumbling, playing rope-a-dope, vowing to fend off amendments all night. The two leaders left the +chamber to confer privately about how to proceed. Inside, the atmosphere of a slumber party set in. Debbie Stabenow, +of Michigan, her hand across her heart, sang a sentimental duet with Robert Menendez, of New Jersey. Exhaustion +momentarily eased the partisan divide. Claire McCaskill sat down beside Tom Coburn, held up an erect finger in his face, +as if casting her Viagra vote, then let it go limp. Coburn could be heard to joke, ""The longest it lasted was thirty +seconds."" +At two-forty-five in the morning, Reid suddenly declared the Senate adjourned. The Senate parliamentarian had just +found two small violations of the reconciliation rules, meaning that in the morning, despite the Democrats' efforts, the +bill would go back to the House for another vote. At the bang of the gavel, the senators fled. In the parking lot, on the +Capitol's northeast side, McCaskill climbed into her S.U.V. Levin, in a cramped sedan, was chauffeured off into the empty +streets. On a marble ledge near the exit, Arlen Specter sat alone, a ghost in a brown suit, staring straight ahead, as if +waiting for someone to take him away. +The Senate reconvened at 9:45 A.M. Around two in the afternoon, the members gathered for the final vote, and the +Democrats were giddy. Tom Harkin, of Iowa, and Christopher Dodd, of Connecticut, even exchanged a hug. ""Everyone's +tired,"" Reid declared before the final vote. ""This legislative fight is one for the record books."" He was so fatigued that he +initially voted the wrong way. Lindsey Graham came in late, delaying the tally by ten minutes. ""Way to go, Lindsey, way +to stretch it out,"" Sam Brownback told him. A few Republicans lingered and took in the moment, like players on the +losing team at the end of the World Series. After a year of work, health-care reform had passed, 56-43, and for a +moment the chamber's Tweeting pygmies had become legislative giants. +The Senate is often referred to as ""the world's greatest deliberative body."" Jeff Merkley, a freshman Democrat from +Oregon, said, ""That is a phrase that I wince each time I hear it, because the amount of real deliberation, in terms of +exchange of ideas, is so limited."" Merkley could remember witnessing only one moment of floor debate between a +Republican and a Democrat. ""The memory I took with me was: 'Wow, that's unusual—there's a conversation occurring +in which they're making point and counterpoint and challenging each other.' And yet nobody else was in the chamber."" +Tom Udall, a freshman Democrat from New Mexico, could not recall seeing a senator change another senator's mind. +""You would really need a good hour or two of extensive exchange among folks that really know the issue,"" he said. +Instead, a senator typically gives ""a prepared speech that's already been vetted through the staff. Then another guy gets +up and gives a speech on a completely different subject."" From time to time, senators of the same party carry on a +colloquy—""I would be interested in the distinguished senator from Iowa's view of the other side's Medicare Advantage +plan""—that has been scripted in advance by aides. +While senators are in Washington, their days are scheduled in fifteen-minute intervals: staff meetings, interviews, visits +from lobbyists and home-state groups, caucus lunches, committee hearings, briefing books, floor votes, fund-raisers. +Each senator sits on three or four committees and even more subcommittees, most of which meet during the same +morning hours, which helps explain why committee tables are often nearly empty, and why senators drifting into a +hearing can barely sustain a coherent line of questioning. All this activity is crammed into a three-day week, for it's an +unwritten rule of the modern Senate that votes are almost never scheduled for Mondays or Fridays, which allows +senators to spend four days away from the capital. Senators now, unlike those of several decades ago, often keep their +families in their home states, where they return most weekends, even if it's to Alaska or Idaho—a concession to endless +fund-raising, and to the populist anti-Washington mood of recent years. (When Newt Gingrich became Speaker of the +House, in 1995, he told new Republican members not to move their families to the capital.) Tom Daschle, the former +Democratic leader, said, ""When we scheduled votes, the only day where we could be absolutely certain we had all one +hundred senators there was Wednesday afternoon."" +Nothing dominates the life of a senator more than raising money. Tom Harkin, the Iowa Democrat, said, ""Of any free +time you have, I would say fifty per cent, maybe even more,"" is spent on fund-raising. In addition to financing their own +campaigns, senators participate at least once a week in the Power Hour, during which they make obligatory calls on +behalf of the Party (in the Democrats' case, from a three-story town house across Constitution Avenue from the Senate +office buildings, since they're barred from using their own offices to raise money). Lamar Alexander, the Tennessee +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +Republican, insisted that the donations are never sufficient to actually buy a vote, but he added, ""It sucks up time that a +senator ought to be spending getting to know other senators, working on issues."" +In June, 2009, top aides to Max Baucus, whose Finance Committee was negotiating the health-care-reform bill, took +time to meet with two health-care lobbyists, who themselves were former Baucus aides. (Baucus received more than a +million dollars from the industry for his 2008 reelection campaign.) That month, according to Common Cause, industry +groups were spending $1.4 million.a day to lobby members of Congress. Udall, speaking of the corrosive effect of fund- +raising and lobbying, said, ""People know it in their heart—they know this place is dominated by special interests. The +over-all bills are not nearly as bold because of the influence of money."" +Daschle sketched a portrait of the contemporary senator who is too busy to think: ""Sometimes, you're dialling for +dollars, you get the call, you've got to get over to vote, you've got fifteen minutes. You don't have a clue what's on the +floor, your staff is whispering in your ears, you're running onto the floor, then you check with your leader—you double +check—but, just to make triple sure, there's a little sheet of paper on the clerk's table: The leader recommends an aye +vote, or a no vote. So you've got all these checks just to make sure you don't screw up, but even then you screw up +sometimes. But, if you're ever pressed, 'Why did you vote that way?'—you just walk out thinking, Oh, my God, I hope +nobody asks, because I don't have a clue."" +Aides, at the elbows of senators as they shuttle between their offices and the Capitol, have proliferated over the past +few decades, and they play a crucial role. Lamar Alexander, who has an office of fifty people, pointed out that staff +members, who are younger and often more ideological than their bosses, and less dependent on institutional +relationships, tend to push senators toward extremes. Often, aides are the main actors behind proposed legislation— +writing bills, negotiating the details—while the senator is relegated to repeating talking points on Fox or MSNBC. +One day in his office, Udall picked up some tabloids from his coffee table and waved them at me. ""You know about all +these rags that cover the Hill, right?"" he said, smiling. There are five dailies—Politico, The Hill, Roll Call, CongressDaily, +and CO Today—all of which emphasize insider conflict. The senators, who like to complain about the trivializing effect of +the ""24/7 media,"" provide no end of fodder for it. The news of the day was what Udall called a ""dust-up"" between Scott +Brown, the freshman Massachusetts Republican, and a staffer for Jim DeMint, the arch-conservative from South +Carolina; the staffer had Tweeted that Brown was voting too often with the Democrats, leading Brown to confront +DeMint on the Senate floor over this supposed breach of protocol. Bloggers carry so much influence that many senators +have a young press aide dedicated to the care and feeding of online media. News about, by, and for a tiny kingdom of +political obsessives dominates the attention of senators and staff, while stories that might affect their constituents go +unreported because their home-state papers can no longer afford to have bureaus in Washington. Dodd, who came to +the Senate in 1981 and will leave next January, told me, ""I used to have eleven Connecticut newspaper reporters who +covered me on a daily basis. I don't have one today, and haven't had one in a number of years. Instead, D.C. publications +only see me through the prism of conflict."" Lamar Alexander described the effect as ""this instant radicalizing of positions +to the left and the right."" +Both Alexander and Gregg said that the Senate had been further polarized by the rising number of senators—now nearly +fifty—who come from the House, rather than from governorships or other positions where bipartisan cooperation is still +permissible. ""A lot of senators don't understand the history or tradition of the institution,"" Gregg said. ""Substantive, +thoughtful, moderate discussion is pushed aside."" +Encumbered with aides, prodded by hourly jolts from electronic media, racing from the hearing room to the caucus +lunch to the Power Hour to the airport, senators no longer have the time, or perhaps the inclination, to get to know one +another—least of all, members of the other party. Friendships across party lines are more likely among the few spouses +who live in Washington. After Udall joined the Senate, last year, he was invited to dinner by Alexander, because Jill +Cooper Udall and Honey Alexander had become friends through a women's social club. It remains the only time Udall +has set foot in the house of a Republican senator. (Vice-President Joe Biden, in his autobiography, recalls that, in the +seventies, a bipartisan group of senators and their wives hosted a monthly dinner: ""In those days Democrats and +Republicans actually enjoyed each other's company."") When I asked Chris Dodd how well he knew, for example, Jim +DeMint, Dodd said, ""Not at all. Whereas Jesse Helms and I knew each other pretty well."" He repeated something that +Jon Kyl, the Republican whip, from Arizona, had recently said to him: ""There's no trust."" Dodd, whose father was a +senator, went on, ""That's really all there is—this place really operates on that. I don't think anyone would argue with +that conclusion. And if that's missing ... "" +There remains a veneer—badly chipped—of comity. On the floor, senators still refer to members of the opposing party +as ""friends."" Gregg described Kent Conrad, a Democrat from North Dakota, as ""one of my best friends in the Senate,"" +and both Gregg and Alexander ticked off examples of little-known legislation that they are currently working on with +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +Democrats; Alexander and Ben Cardin, of Maryland, have introduced a bill to ban mountaintop-removal coal mining. +Udall noted that he had become friendly with John McCain when they went on a congressional tour of Iraq. But +opportunities to bond are rare. On the first floor of the Capitol, there is a private dining room for senators, the ""inner +sanctum,"" where Republicans and Democrats used to have lunch (at separate tables, but in the same room). In the +seventies, old bulls such as James Eastland, Hubert Humphrey, and Jacob Javits held court there; later, Daniel Patrick +Moynihan did. ""You learned, and also you found out what was going on,"" Dodd said, adding, ""It's awfully difficult to say +crappy things about someone that you just had lunch with."" These days, the inner sanctum is nearly always empty. +Senators eat lunch in their respective caucus rooms with members of their party, or else ""downtown,"" which means +asking donors for money over steak and potatoes at the Monocle or Charlie Palmer. The tradition of the ""caucus lunch"" +was instituted by Republicans in the fifties, when they lost their majority; Democrats, after losing theirs in 1980, +followed suit. Caucus lunches work members on both sides into a state of pep-rally fervor. During one recent Republican +lunch, Jim Bunning referred to Harry Reid as an idiot. ""At least he had the courtesy to do it behind closed doors,"" +Alexander joked, adding, ""We spend most of our time in team meetings deciding what we're going to do to each other."" +In 2007, Alexander and Lieberman started a series of bipartisan Tuesday breakfasts. ""They kind of dwindled off during +the health-care debate,"" Alexander said. Udall has tried to revive the Wednesday inner-sanctum lunch. For the first few +months, only Democrats attended. Then, one Wednesday in May, Susan Collins, the Maine Republican, showed up, +joking nervously about being a turncoat; to protect her reputation, her presence was kept secret. +These efforts at resurrecting dead customs are as self-conscious and, probably, as doomed as the get-togethers of lovers +who try to stay friends after a breakup. Ira Shapiro, a Washington lawyer and a former aide to Senator Gaylord Nelson, +of Wisconsin, put it this way: ""Why would they want to have lunch together when they hate each other?"" +The upper chamber of Congress was a constitutional compromise between popular sovereignty and state sovereignty. +The Senate was designed, as part of the separation of powers, to check the impulses of the House and the popular will. +For some Federalists, it also had an aristocratic purpose: to collect knowledge and experience, and to guard against a +levelling spirit that might overtake the majority. When Alexis de Tocqueville visited the Senate, in 1832, he was deeply +impressed by the quality of its members: ""They represent only the lofty thoughts [of the nation] and the generous +instincts animating it, not the petty passions."" But he also recognized that ""a minority of the nation dominating the +Senate could completely paralyze the will of the majority represented in the other house, and that is contrary to the +spirit of constitutional government."" As long as the Senate continued to be composed of America's most talented +statesmen, Tocqueville implied, it would restrain its own anti-democratic potential. +Robert A. Caro, in ""Master of the Senate,"" the third volume of his life of Lyndon Johnson, argues that after the Civil War +the Senate was captured by wealthy and sectional interests, ending a more high-minded age when Daniel Webster, +Henry Clay, and John C. Calhoun engaged in brilliant debate. Aside from spasms of legislation at the start of the +Presidencies of Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Roosevelt, Caro writes, the Senate remained controlled by an alliance of +Southern racists and Republican corporate shills, and was ""the dam against which the waves of social reform dashed +themselves in vain—the chief obstructive force in the federal government."" By the fifties, the Senate had become far +more conservative than the public. And not just conservative: William S. White, in his 1956 book ""Citadel,"" called the +Senate ""to a most peculiar degree, a Southern Institution ... growing at the heart of this ostensibly national assembly"" +and ""the only place in the country where the South did not lose the war."" +By mid-century, it had become a journalistic cliché to call the Senate broken. Otto Preminger's 1962 film ""Advise and +Consent,"" based on the novel by Allen Drury, is about the Senate of that period, and it presents Democrats and +Republicans as equally amoral, calculating, and power-hungry. But the institution, as depicted by Preminger, still works, +in its way: though the deals stink, they get cut. The senators know their colleagues and the rules; they back-stab one +another in the lunchroom, then drink cocktails and play cards on Saturday nights. There are no lobbyists, no fund- +raisers, no media, no constituents—only senators' intricate relations with one another. The Senate is its own world. +In a memoir, Johnson's longtime aide Harry McPherson recalls learning that the Senate's ""famous 'club' atmosphere is +based on the members' mutual acceptance of responsibility and concentration on the tasks at hand.... They thrust +hard at one another in debate over serious matters,"" but, he writes, ""understanding and accommodation in the ordinary +course of the Senate day was essential to sanity."" Johnson, the most powerful Majority Leader in history, bent the +Senate to his will and forced it to become more efficient. He saw his colleagues as either ""whales""—the heavyweight +chairmen who negotiated legislation—or ""minnows,"" the followers who went along with the brokered deals. And when, +in 1958, a formidable new class of liberal Democrats entered the Senate—including Edmund Muskie, Eugene McCarthy, +and Philip Hart—the legislative machinery began to produce reform. Michael Janeway, the author of ""The Fall of the +House of Roosevelt,"" worked as a summer staff member between 1958 and 1962. ""They used to talk to each other— +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +that's my most vivid recollection,"" he said. ""If Wayne Morse talked of constitutional law on the floor, the Southerners +would come in to hear him. The same with Hubert Humphrey on farm policy. My strongest impression was of it being a +deliberative body, drawing each other out—sometimes pedantically."" Senators who ran for office in order to work on +foreign policy, social welfare, or urbanization had to win credibility with the whales. ""But if you wanted to do something +there was a mechanism by which you could do it,"" Janeway said. +In the sixties and seventies, Southern-conservative control was broken by a coalition of left-of-center Democrats and +moderate Republicans. Donald Ritchie, the Senate historian, who started working there in 1976, described the Senate of +those decades as ""a bipartisan liberal institution."" The Civil Rights Act of 1964 was written largely out of the office of the +Republican Minority Leader, Everett Dirksen. Every major initiative—voting rights, open housing, environmental law, +campaign reform—enjoyed bipartisan support. In the rare event of a filibuster, the motion to end debate was often filed +jointly by leaders of both parties. When Medicare—that government takeover of health care for the elderly—was +passed, in 1965, it won 70-24. +The Senate's momentum nurtured superb talent: William Fulbright, Everett Dirksen, Henry Jackson, Frank Church, +Howard Baker. In 1969, George McGovern chaired a select committee on hunger that actually held bipartisan ""field +hearings"" in poor regions, calling witnesses in migrant labor camps, and then, with Bob Dole's indispensable support, +greatly expanded the food-stamp program. The intensity of senatorial purpose in those years must strike today's +legislators as profoundly humbling. After Joe Biden came to the Senate, in 1973, Hubert Humphrey took him aside and +said, ""You have to pick an issue that becomes yours. That's how you attract your colleagues to follow you, Joe. That's +how you demonstrate your bona fides. Don't be a gadfly."" Humphrey's career advice: ""You should become Mr. Housing. +Housing is the future."" +The Senate's modern decline began in 1978, with the election of a new wave of anti-government conservatives, and +accelerated as Republicans became the majority in 1981. ""The Quayle generation came in, and there were a number of +people just like Dan—same generation, same hair style, same beliefs,"" Gary Hart, the Colorado Democrat, recalled. +""They were harder-line. They weren't there to get along with Democrats. But they look accommodationist compared to +Republicans in the Senate today."" Church, McGovern, Javits, and Birch Bayh were gone. Ira Shapiro, the former aide, +who is writing a book about the Senate of the sixties and seventies, said, ""It was a huge loss of the most experienced, +accomplished senators being replaced by neophytes. All of a sudden, in 1981, more than half the Senate had been there +less than six years."" He added, ""The shattering of the great Senate has long-term effects that keep showing up. It gets +worse over time, but it just never gets restored. There was a phrase I heard from Helms and the younger ones: 'Others +didn't want to make waves; I wanted to drain the swamp.'"" +After C-SPAN went on the air, in 1979, the cozy atmosphere that encouraged both deliberation and back-room deals +began to yield to transparency and, with it, posturing. ""So Damn Much Money,"" a recent book by the Washington Post +reporter Robert G. Kaiser, traces the spectacular rise of Washington lobbying to the same period. Liberal Republicans +began to disappear, and as Southern Democrats died out they were replaced by conservative Republicans. Bipartisan +coalitions on both wings of the Senate vanished. The institutionalist gave way to the free agent, who controlled his own +fund-raising apparatus and media presence, and whose electoral base was a patchwork of single-issue groups. Members +of both parties—Howard Metzenbaum, the Ohio Democrat; Jesse Helms, the North Carolina Republican—took to +regularly using the Senate's rules to tie up business for narrowly ideological reasons. The number of filibusters shot up in +the eighties and continued to rise in the following decades, as the parties kept alternating control of the Senate and +escalating a procedural arms race, routinely blocking the confirmation of executive and judicial appointees. Democrats +filibustered Republican nominees to the bench; then Republicans threatened to ban the filibuster in such cases—the so- +called ""nuclear option."" Older members were perturbed when, in 2004, the Republican Majority Leader, Bill Frist, went +to South Dakota to campaign against the Democratic Minority Leader, Tom Daschle (who went on to lose). A few years +earlier, such an action would have been unthinkable. +The weakened institution could no longer withstand pressures from outside its walls; as money and cameras rushed in, +independent minds fell more and more in line with the partisans. Rough parity between the two parties meant that +every election had the potential to make or break a majority, crushing the incentive to cooperate across the aisle. The +Senate, no longer a fount of ideas, became a backwater of the U.S. government. During the Clinton years, the main +action was between the White House and the Gingrich House of Representatives; during the Bush years, the Republican +Senate majority abdicated the oversight role that could have placed a vital check on executive power. +Norman Ornstein, a congressional expert at the American Enterprise Institute, said that the Senate has increasingly +become populated by ""ideologues and charlatans."" He went on, ""When we do get good people who come in, they very +quickly get ground up by the dynamic and the culture of the parties. And once you get there, look at what it takes to stay +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +there."" He spoke of Charles Grassley, the Iowa Republican, who, nearing the end of his career, spent much of last year +working closely with his friend Max Baucus on the health-care bill. Then, in August, Grassley went home and, faced with +angry Republican voters and the prospect of a primary challenge from the right, started warning about ""pulling the plug +on Grandma."" Ornstein added that similar pressures had led John McCain to begin ""altering his behavior and +abandoning every issue, including campaign-finance reform."" +One morning in April, I visited Harry McPherson, the former L.B.J. aide, at the offices of the legal and lobbying firm D. L. +A. Piper, in downtown Washington. McPherson, who is eighty, had on his desk the firm's spiral-bound directory for the +111th Congress. I asked him who, in Johnsonian terms, were the whales of the current Senate. McPherson ran his finger +down the list of senators. He did it again. ""I'm trying here, looking for a remote descendant. Judas Priest, look at this."" +He was stumped. ""Well, I see some good people, I see some people who are going to get coalitions together over time."" +He put the directory aside. ""I'm just having the damnedest time."" +Down the hall from McPherson's office was that of Mel Martinez, a former Republican senator from Florida; he was +hired last year, two weeks after resigning his Senate seat without completing his first term. (He has since moved on to +JPMorgan Chase.) William Cohen, the former Maine senator and Secretary of Defense, has an office downstairs. Tom +Daschle works at D. L. A. Piper; his predecessor as Democratic leader, George Mitchell, was the firm's chairman, until +President Obama appointed him to be his Middle East envoy. One feature of the diminished U.S. senator is the ease with +which he moves from legislating to lobbying. Between 1998 and 2004, half the senators who left office became +lobbyists. In 2007, Trent Lott, a Republican leader in the Senate less than a year into his fourth term, abruptly resigned +and formed a lobbying firm with former Senator John Breaux, just a few weeks before a new law took effect requiring a +two-year waiting period between serving and lobbying. +When you spend your days at the Senate, it's easy to forget about everything else. The House of Representatives seems +miles away (it's just down a corridor and across the rotunda), the White House is another country, and actual foreign +countries are unimaginable. The place remains insular, labyrinthine, and opaque—even physically. Senators commute +thirty seconds between their offices and the chamber by electric subway cars that run along a tunnel under Constitution +Avenue. Many signs are misleading or obsolete (the gilded lettering over the visitors' gallery says ""Men's Gallery""), and +the Capitol is filled with secret passageways and spare rooms, called hideaways, doled out according to seniority, where +senators can read, drink, doze, and wait for the buzzer announcing an imminent vote. The most pervasive authority over +the institution is not the Constitution or the Bible but, rather, an impenetrable sixteen-hundred-page tome, by Floyd M. +Riddick, called ""Senate Procedure: Precedents and Practices,"" which only the late Robert Byrd, of West Virginia, was +known to have read in its entirety. The procedures are so abstruse that a parliamentarian must sit below the presiding +officer and, essentially, tell him or her what to say. +After half a century, the picture given by Preminger's ""Advise and Consent"" is still faintly visible. ""The Senate, by its +nature, is a place where consensus reigns and personal relationships are paramount,"" Lamar Alexander said. ""And that's +not changed."" Which is exactly the problem: it's a self-governing body that depends on the reasonableness of its +members to function. Sarah Binder, a congressional scholar at George Washington University, said, ""To have a chamber +that rules by unanimous consent—it's nutty! Especially when you've got Jim Bunning to please."" +In 2006 and 2008, sixteen Democrats entered the Senate, giving the Party its current majority of fifty-nine to forty-one +(counting two independents). They include moderates, like Jon Tester, of Montana, and Mark Warner, of Virginia; +liberals, like Sherrod Brown, of Ohio, and Sheldon Whitehouse, of Rhode Island; policy specialists, like Amy Klobuchar, of +Minnesota, and Jeff Merkley; and iconoclasts, like Claire McCaskill. Their interest in legislating has won the admiration of +senior senators. ""If they can stay, I think they'll be terrific,"" Chris Dodd said. ""My worry is they won't stay. Because it's +not productive."" +The Democratic class of 2008 arrived with President Obama, expecting to usher in a dynamic new era. Instead, their +young Senate careers have passed in a daily slog of threatened filibusters and ""secret holds""—when a senator +anonymously objects to bringing an appointment up for a vote, which requires unanimous consent. On April 20th, Claire +McCaskill took the trouble to read off the names of fifty-six Obama nominees languishing in the limbo of secret holds, +and Jon Kyl objected to every one of them. Just getting a bill to the floor for debate can require days of tactical +gamesmanship between the party leaders. There were times when Warner wondered if anyone had ever quit in the first +year. Michael Bennet said, ""We find ourselves at a moment in our history when the questions are huge ones, not small +ones, and where things have been put off for a really long period of time."" He mentioned the national debt, energy +policy, and the financial crisis. ""Yet you have a Senate that's designed not to advance change but to slow it."" +We were talking in his hideaway, a windowless room in the Capitol basement, which had a mini-fridge stocked with +bottled water, black leatherette furniture circa 1962, and a TV tuned to C-SPAN2 on mute; Senator Kyl's mouth was +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +moving. Bennet, the former superintendent of schools in Denver, was appointed to a vacant seat in 2009, and already +has to defend it this year. He described the Senate with the dry bluntness of an outsider who hasn't allowed himself to +grow too attached. Bennet repeated a story he had heard about a new congressman giving his maiden speech: ""And +then some more veteran guy came over and said, 'Son, you're talking like this place is on the level. It's not on the level.' +As the fifteen months or so have gone by that I've been here, the less on the level it seems."" +Earlier this year, the Senate's procedural absurdities became national news twice in one month. On February 4th, +CongressDaily reported that Richard Shelby, an Alabama Republican, was secretly blocking the confirmation of seventy +Obama appointees over a dispute involving defense earmarks for his state. (His tactics exposed, Shelby—whose office +maintains that he was responsible for fewer than fifty holds—lifted all but three.) Later that month, Bunning spent +several days and a late night on the Senate floor, filibustering to prevent benefits from being paid to millions of +unemployed Americans. When Merkley tried to reason with him, Bunning responded, ""Tough shit."" (Eventually, +Republicans persuaded Bunning to stop.) +These incidents elicited a brief outcry, but the extent of the Senate's routine folly remains largely hidden. For example, +Grassley and Ron Wyden, of Oregon, have been trying since 1997 to end the practice of secret holds, without success. In +2007, the Senate passed a bill banning secret holds that last longer than six days. But to get around the ban two or more +senators can pass the hold back and forth—it's called ""rolling holds""—and their party leader facilitates the game by +keeping their names secret. +Many of the Senate's antique rules and precedents have been warped beyond recognition by the modern pressures of +partisanship. The hold, for example, was a courtesy extended to senators in the days of horse travel, when they needed +time to get back to Washington and read a bill or question an appointee before casting their vote. Sarah Binder, who co- +authored a book on the filibuster, calls the procedure a historical accident: in 1806, the Senate got rid of a little-used +rule that allowed the ""previous question"" to be called to a vote. Suddenly, there was no inherent limit on debate, and by +the eighteen-thirties senators had begun taking advantage of this loophole, derailing the proceedings by getting up and +talking until their voice, legs, or bladder gave out. (The word ""filibuster"" comes from vrijbuiter—old Dutch for ""looter."") +In 1917, Woodrow Wilson, with his wartime legislative agenda blocked by filibusters, forced the Senate to pass Rule XXII, +which allowed a two-thirds majority to bring a floor debate to an end with a ""cloture"" vote. For decades, the rule was +rarely used; between 1919 and 1971, there were only forty-nine cloture votes, fewer than one per year. In the seventies +and eighties, the annual average rose to about a dozen. (Frustration with this increase led the Senate, in 1975, to lower +the threshold for cloture to sixty votes.) In the nineties and early aughts, the average went up to twenty-five or thirty a +year, as both parties escalated their use of the filibuster when they found themselves in the minority. After the +Republicans lost their majority in 2006, filibusters became everyday events: there were a hundred and twelve cloture +votes in 2007 and 2008, and this session Republicans are on target to break their own filibuster record. +The tally of cloture votes reflects only a small fraction of senatorial obstruction. Three hundred and forty-five bills +passed by the House have been prevented from even coming up for debate in the Senate. ""Why?"" Steny Hoyer, the +outraged Democratic Majority Leader of the House, asked me. ""Because they do not do their business in a way that +facilitates noncontroversial things. Thankfully, the House of Representatives is not becoming the Senate."" Last week, six +House Democrats expressed their displeasure with the upper chamber by staging a sit-in of sorts on the Senate floor. +Seventy-six nominees for judgeships and executive posts have been approved by committees but, because of blocks, +haven't come up for a vote in the full Senate, leaving courtrooms idle and jobs unfilled across the upper levels of the +Obama Administration. (The Democrats also practiced the art of blocking nominees during the Bush Administration.) +There's often no objection to the individual being blocked: after an eight-month hold, Martha Johnson, nominated to +run the General Services Administration, was confirmed 96-0. On an issue like health-care reform, when the objection +was substantive, Republicans ransacked Riddick's ""Senate Procedure"" for every conceivable way to delay a debate and +vote. Judd Gregg even sent a memo on stalling tactics to his Republican colleagues. Tom Coburn demanded the reading +aloud of an entire seven-hundred-and-sixty-seven-page amendment proposed by Bernie Sanders, the Vermont socialist; +Senate clerks, working in half-hour shifts, were three hours into the chore when Sanders withdrew the amendment in +frustration. +Under McConnell, Republicans have consistently consumed as much of the Senate's calendar as possible with legislative +maneuvering. The strategy is not to extend deliberation of the Senate's agenda but to prevent it. Tom Harkin, who first +proposed reform of the filibuster in 1995, called his Republican colleagues ""nihilists,"" who want to create chaos because +it serves their ideology. ""If there's chaos, things will tend toward simple solutions,"" Harkin said. ""In chaos people don't +listen to reason."" McConnell did not respond to requests for an interview, but he has often argued that the Republican +strategy reflects the views of a majority of Americans. In March, he told the Times, ""To the extent that they""—the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +Democrats—""want to do things that we think are in the political center and would be helpful to the country, we'll be +helpful. To the extent they are trying to turn us into a Western European country, we are not going to be helpful."" +One of the mysteries of the Senate is how Mitch McConnell has been able to keep his members in line, on vote after +vote. Why do moderates with years of experience and their own power base back home—Richard Lugar, of Indiana; +Susan Collins, of Maine; George Voinovich, of Ohio—keep siding with the more extreme members of their caucus? +Alexander said that McConnell listens well to all his members, adding, ""When you have your back against the wall and +the gallows are hanging in front of you, it tends to unify. Operating with forty members—it concentrates the mind."" +Lindsey Graham described to the Times how McConnell exhorted his caucus after the disastrous 2008 election: ""He said +if we didn't stick together on big things, we wouldn't be relevant."" Last December, the Republicans decided to filibuster +a military-spending bill in order to delay the looming vote on health care until as close to Christmas as possible. Thad +Cochran, the Republican ranking member of the Appropriations Committee, promised Daniel Inouye, the chairman, that +he wouldn't join the effort. But at the last minute Cochran, who has been in the Senate since 1979 and brings +disproportionate amounts of defense money to Mississippi, told Reid that his leadership wouldn't allow him to vote with +the Democrats and end the filibuster—even on a matter of national security. (The Democrats were able to impose +cloture, and the vote on health care finally took place on Christmas Eve.) +Republican defections have been rare. In early 2009, Collins and Olympia Snowe, also of Maine, voted for the stimulus +bill, along with Arlen Specter (who promptly switched parties). Snowe also voted for the Finance Committee's health- +care-reform bill last October, the only Republican to do so. But in December, at the pivotal moment, she voted against +the version that went before the full Senate. ""I wasn't interested in expanding this program beyond the Finance +Committee version—it grew by a thousand pages,"" Snowe said. She wasn't included in the negotiations with White +House officials that took place in an elegant conference room across from Reid's suite of offices, and said that the +Democrats ""did not accept any of my proposals. As I said to the President, it was all windup and no pitch."" McConnell +was able to exploit her alienation. A friend of Snowe cited another reason for her reversal: ""She actually said to me once +that she had never felt the pressure that she felt on health care, never before had that pressure been quite as evident to +her or quite as real or troubling. Kyl and McConnell were saying things like 'You just can't let us down, we're all in this +together. You're a senior Republican member of this caucus, and you just have to hang tough with us. We expect it and +you're going to do it.'"" +Reid doesn't use such tough tactics; he has achieved his position, in spite of his public shortcomings, by being the +senator who helped other Democrats, always answered their calls, and got them what they wanted through masterly +maneuvering. This has made him enormously popular within the Democratic caucus, but it doesn't give him the leverage +of McConnell, let alone of Lyndon Johnson. +In the current Senate, it has become normal for a handful of senators, sometimes representing just ten or twenty per +cent of the country's population, to hold everything up. And the status quo has become sufficiently frustrating that a +few new senators have considered a radical option: mutiny. +Tom Udall, who is sixty-two, is older than most freshman senators. He has the crow's-feet of a Westerner who has spent +time in the sun, and a slow, good-natured voice. His father, Stewart, was an Arizona congressman and the Interior +Secretary for Presidents Kennedy and Johnson; his uncle Mo was a legendary Arizona representative; his cousin Mark is +a freshman senator from Colorado. Udall served five terms in the House before winning a Senate seat from New Mexico, +in 2008. And yet he has the air of a political Candide—he is always earnest, capable of disappointment but not cynicism. +""I ran on the idea that the Senate should not be a graveyard for good ideas,"" he said. ""Then to be on the inside—the +thing that strikes you is how one senator can hold up the whole show."" +In his first year in office, Udall decided to do something audacious: he would try to change the Senate's rules. +Customarily, the rules continue session after session, and a provision in Rule XXII requires sixty-seven votes to amend +them, making it extremely difficult. (""Rule XXII is a Catch-22,"" Ted Kennedy used to joke.) Udall embraced a different +idea—the ""constitutional option."" Article I, Section 5 of the Constitution states that ""each House may determine the +Rules of its Proceedings"" at the beginning of the new Congress. So, in theory, a senator could take the floor next January +and propose debating its rules from scratch, including the filibuster. New rules could be passed with a simple majority. +There's even a precedent for this: moves to revisit the rules by invoking the constitutional option have been made three +times, most recently in 1975. Udall has spent much of the past year trying to build support for the idea. +At the request of Udall and others, Schumer, who is the chairman of the Rules Committee, has held a series of hearings +on the filibuster, calling witnesses such as Sarah Binder, the historian, and Walter Mondale, who was in the Senate when +the constitutional option was invoked in 1975. Dick Durbin, the second-highest-ranking Democrat, has organized +working groups among newer members on other internal reforms, such as ending secret holds and choosing committee +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +chairs by caucus vote rather than by seniority. (Lamar Alexander wryly suggested to me that Schumer and Durbin were +competing for the favor of newer members, in case Harry Reid loses his seat in the fall and they run against each other +for Majority Leader.) +For Republican institutionalists, such as Alexander and Gregg, the push for rules reform is folly. ""If you want a +parliamentary form of government, go over to the House,"" Gregg, who is about to retire, scoffed. ""Why even run for the +Senate?"" Udall's plan for next January, he said, would be a ""gigantic mistake."" +""They'll get over it,"" Alexander said of the Democrats' enthusiasm for rules reform. ""And they'll get over it quicker if +they're in the minority next January. Because they'll instantly see the value of slowing the Senate down to consider +whatever they have to say."" He added that the Senate ""may be getting done about as much as the American people +want done."" The President's ambitious agenda, after all, has upset a lot of voters, across the political spectrum. None of +the Republicans I spoke to agreed with the contention that the Senate is ""broken."" Alexander claimed that he and other +Republicans were exercising the moderating, thoughtful influence on legislation that the founders wanted in the Senate. +""The Senate wasn't created to be efficient,"" he argued. ""It was created to be inefficient."" At one of the filibuster +hearings, in April, Alexander, sitting across the table from Udall, said that, for all the times the Democrats charge the +Republicans with obstructing legislation, ""we could say that's the number of times the majority has tried to cut off our +right to debate, our right to offer amendments, which is the essence of the Senate."" +Newcomers like Udall seem to think that the Senate has grown so absurd and extreme that some kind of reform is +inevitable. Perhaps they need more time to plumb the depths of the institution's intransigence. According to Sarah +Binder, a change in rules is extremely unlikely; Republicans would be implacably opposed to, say, weakening the +filibuster, and so would some Democrats, especially long-serving ones. ""I would oppose that,"" Chris Dodd said, adding of +the freshmen, ""These are people who have never been in the minority."" For older Democrats, who have put in their +years, grown adept at working the rules, and now chair powerful committees, the reform impulse could be a threat. +(Among senior senators, the sole enthusiast for rules reform is Tom Harkin.) One senator spoke of the Senate as being +divided not between whales and minnows but, rather, between bulls and calves. The older Democrats are too +accustomed to the Senate's ways to share the frustrations of the newcomers; the handful of older moderate +Republicans are too weak to challenge the newer radicals who now dominate the caucus. +Even if the freshmen Democrats can somehow reform the filibuster next January, the Senate will remain a sclerotic, +wasteful, unhappy body. The deepest source of its problems is not rules and precedents but, rather, its human beings, +who have created a culture where Tocqueville's ""lofty thoughts"" and ""generous impulses"" have no place. +A few days after passing health-care reform, the Senate struggled to its feet to take on a second large task. Financial +regulatory reform should have been the easiest piece of major legislation of the Obama Presidency, the likeliest to win +real bipartisan support. The financial crisis had been catastrophic for millions of Americans, and after the 2008 bailout +Wall Street had become even more hated than the Senate was. In April, a lineup of bankers from Goldman Sachs +appeared before Senator Levin's subcommittee on investigations, and managed to appear as arrogant, callous, and +evasive as their reputations had suggested. The public demanded action. Some Republicans had a genuine desire to pass +a bill. If health-care reform had been a war of attrition, financial reform was a promising liaison. +The affair began with a Republican, Bob Corker, and a Democrat, Mark Warner—both multimillionaires serving their first +term, both considered centrists. Corker is a small, dapper former construction magnate who became the mayor of +Chattanooga; Warner is a tall, preppily dressed former telecommunications entrepreneur who became the governor of +Virginia. Chris Dodd, the Banking Committee chairman, assigned them to work together on the section of the bill having +to do with the liquidation of troubled firms—making sure that there would never be another taxpayer bailout. They +worked through the winter, in Warner's office, in Corker's office, over dinner, sometimes without staff, as if they were +members of a Senate from the past. They hosted a series of afternoon seminars, inviting guests such as Ben Bernanke, +Alan Greenspan, and Sheila Bair. Corker and Warner were sometimes said to be the only Democrat and Republican still +talking to each other. In January, Business Week called them the Senate's ""Odd Couple."" By February, they had finished +their work. +Meanwhile, discussions about the entire bill between Dodd and Richard Shelby, the top Republican on the committee, +dragged on, repeatedly breaking down. Finally, on February 10th, Dodd called Corker, who, though he was one of the +committee's junior members, agreed to be the chairman's Republican negotiating partner. When Corker informed +McConnell and Shelby, they expressed surprise. ""It was an odd place to be,"" Corker recalled. ""And yet that night we +began meeting."" The junior Republican savored the rare experience of creating, rather than opposing, legislation. In +response, Shelby's conservative staff tried to undermine Corker, spreading rumors among Republicans and their +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +lobbyists that he was giving too much away. (A Shelby aide said that staff members were simply informing other +Republicans of the Party's line on financial reform.) +On March 10th, Dodd concluded that he had to move a bill to the floor. He called Corker and said, ""You've been a great +partner."" He was ending their talks after only a month. ""It's a little stunning, I've got to be honest,"" Corker told reporters +afterward. Someone close to the negotiations compared Corker to Dickens's Miss Havisham, unable to get over the +rebuff, forever awaiting the arrival of her groom, all her clocks stopped. Corker later said that Dodd had ended the talks +under pressure from the White House and other Democrats. Dodd said that Corker had been unable to bring any other +Republicans with him. ""Baloney,"" Corker said. ""If Dodd had reached an agreement with me, we'd've had at least twenty- +five Republican votes."" +The bill that Dodd brought before the Senate, after a year of discussions with Democrats and Republicans alike, +incorporated the bipartisan plan of Warner and Corker to prevent another bank bailout: setting up a fifty-billion-dollar +fund, paid for by the banks, to insure orderly liquidation, and establishing a risk council to detect warning signs of +another crisis. But in mid-April Mitch McConnell—who had just met with Wall Street executives in New York, and was +now parroting talking points from a memo written by the Republican strategist Frank Luntz—called it a ""partisan bill"" +that ""will guarantee perpetual taxpayer bailout of Wall Street banks."" McConnell presented a letter, signed by all forty- +one Republicans, suggesting that they would filibuster the financial-reform bill. +His remarks amounted to a repudiation of Corker's work as well as of Dodd's. The next day, April 15th, Corker pleaded +with his colleagues, in his Tennessee twang, ""Let's come to the floor and let's act like adults. Let's tone down the +rhetoric. Let's don't exaggerate the pluses or minuses. Let's do what the Senate was created to do.... We were +supposed to be the people that took some of the red-hot activities that sometimes come from the other body and sat +down with cooler heads and resolved the issues like adults. We can do that. As a matter of fact, I would say, if we cannot +do that on financial regulation, an issue that really doesn't have any real philosophical bearings to it ..."" Corker didn't +allow the thought to ripen—he had already gone farther than almost any Republican would have dared. +Dodd spoke later in the day and completed Corker's speech: ""I know my friends on the other side of the aisle are faced +with a difficult choice between supporting their party leadership and participating in this complicated, difficult debate. I +am not naïve. I know that is a hard place to be. But if we can't act like U.S. senators for the sake of this issue ... then +why are we even here?"" He went on, ""We work for an American public that is sick and tired of feeling like no one is +looking out for their interests, like the political hacks and lobbyists hold all the cards in these discussions. The minority +seems intent on proving them right.... I have been here a long time. I know this institution is better than that. I know +there are friends of mine on the other side of the aisle who care about this bill, who want to be a part of the debate, +who want to be part of the solution."" +In the same speech, Dodd joined the partisan fight, accusing McConnell of lying about the bill. Turning crimson-faced, he +chopped the air with his hand as he shouted, ""I have to ask myself, why did I go through this process over the last four +or five months, agreeing to much of what they were offering, and there is not a single political vote to show for it.... I +have to say to the younger members, the newer members coming along: be careful!"" +Corker, having heard that Dodd was speaking, returned to the chamber and asked to respond. ""You and I went a long +way,"" Corker told Dodd. ""Then we stopped. On March 10th it ended. I understand that, look, you were losing Democrats +on your committee."" +""And I was not gaining Republicans,"" Dodd replied. +""You had one, and that is all you asked for when you started. I never said I could speak for anybody but myself. And I did +not leave the table."" Corker urged Dodd to keep talking to Republicans—their differences could be sorted out in a few +days. +But this was not McConnell's agenda. Instead, financial reform became a slightly more polite repeat of the health-care- +reform brawl: the Republicans threatened filibusters, the Democrats threatened all-nighters, and thousands of lobbyists +prowled the Capitol, charging their Wall Street clients more than a billion dollars. On April 28th, I was sitting in the +ornate Reception Room with Jim Manley, Reid's spokesman. On the other side of the wall, there was the noise of +furniture scraping across a tile floor. ""Those are cots being set up in the L.B.J. Room,"" Manley said. ""Very little happens +around here without a deadline."" The cots persuaded Republicans to allow the bill to move to the floor for debate. A +few weeks later, on May 20th, yet another filibuster was defeated by yet another cloture motion, and financial reform +finally came to a vote. It passed, 59-39. Only four Republicans had joined the majority. Corker wasn't among them. He +had even voted for an amendment, offered by his Republican colleague Jeff Sessions, of Alabama, that would have +scrapped Corker's work of many months with Warner. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +""The idea of watching Bob Corker vote for the Sessions amendment!"" Dodd said afterward, sitting in his red-curtained +office, under a print of Holbein's portrait of Thomas More. ""It's the Senate, I guess."" McConnell's strategy of obstruction +had once again come close to succeeding, Dodd said, but he knew that a ""shrinking number"" of Republicans were +frustrated. The previous day, Dodd had said to Susan Collins, ""God, I would have loved to have you as my ranking +member on this."" Collins responded, ""We could have had such a great time on this bill."" +Warner, who said that he believed in bipartisanship because ""the American people don't trust either political party +enough to give them a blank check,"" was astonished that so few Republicans voted for financial reform. ""There was zero +substantive reason why this couldn't have been eighty votes,"" he said. I asked him why Bob Corker had voted no on the +bill. Warner started to talk about the consumer-protection title, and then said, ""If you want to vote against something, +you can always find your reasons."" +But Corker hadn't seemed to want to vote against it. He had spent months trying to act like a U.S. senator, alienating +himself from his own party and then the other party, and on the day of the vote he held the floor for the better part of +thirty minutes, as if he were still reluctant to let the effort go. ""I am obviously disappointed,"" he said. ""I think I have +spent as much time as any senator. +... on policy regarding our financial system. I think any bill—even this bill—has good +things in it. There is no question. And I appreciate the thrust. But I think there is a lot of overreaching, and I think not +enough time was spent on some of the core issues."" +As the senators cast their votes, I noticed Robert Kaiser, the author of ""So Damn Much Money,"" in the press gallery. I +later asked him if, with the passage of two big reform bills in three months, we were witnessing a possible renewal of +the Senate. ""If you can engage public opinion in a way politicians can understand, public opinion can still blow away +money and interest groups,"" he said. ""But over the past few decades the reflex has grown in the Senate that, all things +considered, it's better to avoid than to take on big issues. This is the kind of thing that drives Michael Bennet nutty: here +you've arrived in the United States Senate and you can't do fuck-all about the destruction of the planet."" +After the final vote on financial reform, the Republicans flew home, and the Democratic leaders held a press conference, +smiling before the microphones outside the Senate chamber. Reid said, ""For those who wanted to protect Wall Street, it +didn't work."" He then excused himself: he had to join Biden for a telephone fund-raiser with ""some Nevadans."" +Durbin said, ""I was stunned that only four Republicans would join us in passing this historic legislation. What does it take +to bring the Republican Party into the conversation about the future of America?"" +Dodd, glowing with triumph, said, ""I wanted to demonstrate that the Senate of the United States could conduct its +business much as our founders intended. We did that."" +On July 21st, President Obama signed the completed bill. The two lasting achievements of this Senate, financial +regulation and health care, required a year and a half of legislative warfare that nearly destroyed the body. They +depended on a set of circumstances—a large majority of Democrats, a charismatic President with an electoral mandate, +and a national crisis—that will not last long or be repeated anytime soon. Two days after financial reform became law, +Harry Reid announced that the Senate would not take up comprehensive energy-reform legislation for the rest of the +year. And so climate change joined immigration, job creation, food safety, pilot training, veterans' care, campaign +finance, transportation security, labor law, mine safety, wildfire management, and scores of executive and judicial +appointments on the list of matters that the world's greatest deliberative body is incapable of addressing. Already, you +can feel the Senate slipping back into stagnant waters. +ILLUSTRATION: STEVE BRODNER +* Print +• +E-Mail + +* Feeds +Share: +* Facebook + +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770194 Date: 08/31/2015 +* Twitter + +* Digg + +* More + +To get more of The New Yorker's signature mix of politics, culture and the arts: Subscribe now + +Related Links +Ask the Author: Join a live chat with George Packer about the Senate on Wednesday, August 4, at 3 P.M.

It has given us a chance to rethink, redefine and restructure our +entire operation. +In moving ahead, we are not taking a ""same as before but less"" approach. Rather than +taking off slices here and there, we are fundamentally reshaping PA Germany. At the +heart of this process there are three basic questions: What are our goals? What are the +audiences we need to connect with to achieve those goals? Which PD tools are most +effective in reaching those audiences? The answers to those questions tell us what we +need to be doing and how we should deploy our money and staff. And we are deploying +accordingly, determined to make ourselves even stronger than we were before in the +activity sectors that are crucial. +Our goals are clearly defined in Mission Germany's MSRP. At a June 2-3 offsite in +Hamburg chaired by the DCM, a Mission Germany PD team that included the Consuls +General focused intensively on identifying the key audiences we need to reach in order to +achieve those goals and the PD tools that have the greatest impact on those audiences. +Yes, that is something that all Public Affairs sections around the world do on an ongoing +basis, but — knowing that our resources are shrinking by a third — our analysis of what is +essential and what is not is particularly hard-edged and rigorous. +A central aspect of this process is identifying the activities that need to be pared down or +eliminated. Justifications such as ""we've always done that"" or ""audiences like it"" are not +sufficient. It's not about what we have always done, it's about what we need to be doing +now and in the coming years. And, while it is always nice when people respond +positively to our efforts, the reality is this: if it is not an audience that is closely linked to +one of our goals, there is no justification for the expenditure of staff time and money. +As we go about reinventing PA Germany, we need to strike the right balance between our +highly focused work in support of specific U.S. policy goals and our longer term efforts +to strengthen understanding for U.S. culture and values, recognizing that those two areas +of emphasis often flow into each other (the get-together with high school students that +turns into a discussion of Afghanistan; the key staffer who is accessible to us because she +is a Fulbright alumna, etc.). +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770207 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770207 Date: 08/31/2015 +It is essential that we get this right because Germany matters for the U.S. Germany is +one of our strongest, most capable partners and is crucial to achieving successful +outcomes on the most significant foreign policy issues our country faces. Afghanistan, +Iran, Middle East peace, financial regulation, economic growth, climate change, non- +proliferation, counterterrorism — with each one of these issues, positive German +engagement is vitally important. And, in addition to its value as a bilateral partner, +Germany is the engine that drives core institutions of European policy, not only in the +traditional councils of Brussels, NATO, and the UN, but also now in the newly +empowered European Parliament. It is the indispensable power behind European +economic, security, and political affairs. Germany's relationship with the United States +sets the tone and outlines the scope for how the United States interacts with Europe. +The restructuring of PA Germany is all about prioritization and the tough choices that it +involves. In thinking about our priorities, it is clear that engaging youth is very high on +the list. That is true worldwide, but there are specific circumstances in Germany that +make it essential that we connect with young people and help them see that a close +relationship between the U.S. and Germany has relevance for their lives. In the 20 years +since the end of the Cold War and the fall of the Wall and against the background of eight +years during which the image of America was severely tarnished, millions of young +Germans have drifted away from us. We have a chance now to reverse that trend and we +must make the most of it, but we can only do that if we systematically focus our efforts. +Key subsets of the German youth audience are immigrant youth and youth in eastern +Germany. It is essential that we reach both those subgroups; if we fail to engage +successfully with them it is very likely that as they enter adulthood negative attitudes +toward the U.S. will harden into unchangeable convictions. (Among immigrant youth, +which in Germany is largely synonymous with Muslim youth: the belief that the U.S. is +hostile toward Islam; among young eastern Germans: the distorted image of America that +they have inherited from their parents who grew up in a communist environment.) +As we work to focus our efforts for maximum impact, a central challenge is how much +time to devote to fundamentally friendly audiences with which we have a long- +established relationship, audiences that often tend to be older, non-immigrant and +predominately male. We would be foolish to cut our ties to those people, many of whom +are influential and have been with us for a long time. We cannot rebuff old friends, but +neither can we overinvest in preaching to the choir. Youth, immigrants, women, eastern +Germans — audiences that often greet us with deep skepticism — need to occupy a central +place in our work. +The restructuring plan that we are implementing aims to: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770207 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770207 Date: 08/31/2015 +• Eliminate stove piping. We are getting rid of the organizational and mental walls +that separate (a) the three PD areas of activity (Press, Culture, Information +Services) and (b) the six PD platforms in Germany (Embassy, five Consulates). +• Create the capacity to form issue-focused ""campaign teams"" closely integrating +all areas of activity (Press, Culture, Information Services) and linking staff +resources Mission-wide. +• Make optimum use of Social Media, recognizing that it has tremendous potential +as a program enhancer and as a bridge to youth audiences, but it is not a silver +bullet that can accomplish everything. Make sure American and local staff get +substantial training in using Social Media. +• Identify thematic areas and/or support functions in which individual Consulates +can play a lead role, leveraging the specific profiles of their districts and the +specific talents of their staff Learn from what the Mission's Management section +has accomplished in this area. +• Eliminate duplication of effort and create efficient mechanisms for sharing +information and products. Our Mission-wide SharePoint site will play a key role +in this. +• Identify products/activities that can be outsourced. Just because something is +definitely worth doing does not mean it has to be done in-house. +• Bring the Information Resource function into the 21' century. Connect it to +today's key audiences and institutions; focus it on cutting-edge technology and +media. +• Look for opportunities to build a LES team that reflects the diversity and youth of +the audiences with whom we are engaging. +• Make the most of the ten German American Institutes (GAIs). With significantly +less discretionary funding, we will have to make tough funding choices, but we +need to keep supporting the GAIs and find low-cost (in terms of time and money) +ways to maximize their impact. +We are well into the process of transforming ourselves. What is the endpoint we are +heading toward? On one level, there is no endpoint. The environment in which we +operate and the tools at our disposal are evolving rapidly and therefore the act of +redefining and restructuring ourselves needs to be ongoing and open-ended. If we do not +make continual revitalization of how we do business a key part of doing business, we will +always be playing a hopeless game of catch-up. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770207 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770207 Date: 08/31/2015 +What we do have now is a clear sense of (a) the focal points we will have for the +foreseeable future and (b) the country-wide structure that will enable us to concentrate +our resources on those focal points and achieve maximum impact. That structure, +presented in the attached diagram, is based on the organizational goals and principles +listed above. Above all, it embodies our commitment to prioritizing our efforts +rigorously and working as a single unified team unencumbered by rigid organizational +walls.

The PD LES staffing +we will devote to each of those tasks is listed on the attached document (that information +is also built into the electronic version of the diagram). Also attached is a document +showing how our LES staff will be distributed (a) among the goals and functions listed +on the diagram, and (b) among Mission Germany's six public diplomacy platforms +(Berlin and the five Consulates). +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770207 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770207 Date: 08/31/2015 +Attachments: +• Diagram: Mission Germany Public Diplomacy Strategy +• Mission Germany PD LES staffing: task-by-task +• Mission Germany PD LES staffing: by goal and geographically +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770207 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5444,C05770208,NEW POLL: APPROVAL RATINGS FOR ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS DROP ACROSS THE BOARD,H,"Mills, Cheryl D",32,2010-08-03T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0090/DOC_0C05770208/C05770208.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: New Poll: Approval Ratings for Administration Officials Drop Across the Board,,"Mills, Cheryl D ",,"Tuesday, August 3, 2010 5:38 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770208,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770208 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Mills, Cheryl D +Sent: Tuesday, August 3, 2010 5:38 PM +To: +Subject: FW: New Poll: Approval Ratings for Administration Officials Drop Across the Board +From: John Podesta [mailto: +Sent: Tuesday, August 03, 2010 4:22 PM +To: Neera Tanden; Mills, Cheryl D +Subject: FW: New Poll: Approval Ratings for Administration Officials Drop Across the Board +Break out the kevlar vests. +From: Clarus Research Group, Ron Faucheux [mailto:Clarus_Research_Group_Ron_Fauche +Sent: Tuesday, August 03, 2010 4:17 PM +To: John Podesta +Subject: New Poll: Approval Ratings for Administration Officials Drop Across the Board +Augus' +PROVAL RATINGS FOR ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS DROP ACROSS THE BOARD +3Poll of ""news watchers"" — a nationwide survey of registered voters who say they follow the news ""closely"" or ""very closely"" — finds that the job +ratings of President Obama, his top aides and Cabinet officials have fallen considerably during the past seven months. +The July 2010 Clams Poll shows that only two members of the Obama team, Secretary of State Hilary Clinton (64 percent) and Defense Secretar} +Robert Gates (56 percent), were surveyed to have job approval ratings of more than 50 percent. +Clinton, Obama's opponent in the 2008 Democratic primaries, received the highest job rating in the ""news watchers"" survey, but her 64 percent ra +the July 2010 poll is down 11 points since the December 2009 Clams Inner Circle poll. +Gates, who is second with a 56 percent approval rating, suffered the biggest drop —down 13 points since December. +President Obama, who scored a 45 percent job approval rating in the July 2010 poll, is down 6 points from where he was seven months ago. +nine officials tested, six have higher disapproval than approval ratings — Obama, Timothy Geithner, Janet Napolitano, Ken Salazar, Rahm Emanuel +.xelrod,"" said Ron Faucheux, president of Clams.

Some Kenyans came out at 3:00am to participate — polls opened at +6:00am. There has not been a single reported incidence of violence. +• Security: There has been a marked increase in security as compared with the +2007 elections. There are more military personnel in the polling stations and +more police presence. There is a particularly high military/police presence in +potential trouble areas like the Rift Valley. +• Political good will: Media coverage (both state-run and private) indicates that +most Kenyans have been impressed by the IIEC's transparency, regular updates +to the public, and have applauded their efforts to address challenges as they have +occurred. +Citizen Participation +• Voter Turnout: Voter turn-out appears high (some polling stations had +reported that more than 50% of registered voters had voted by mid-day). The +IIEC has said that turnout was 60% at 3pm with two hours of voting still to go. +• The Church Mobilization: The ""No"" vote was largely mobilized by religious +organizations and churches. Thousands of voters turned-out in areas that are +thought to be supportive of the NO campaign. The final public statement issued +by the NO campaign going into the referendum encouraged Kenyans to vote and +called for peaceful polls. However, there were troubling signs contained within +the statement as well. For instance, the statement read in part: ""We are aware +that the government has put an elaborate strategy together to rig the +referendum... We will reject the results of the referendum if we find that +government has operationalized its rigging plans."" The NO campaign statement +further stated that ""Americans are using Kenya as an experiment of their new +method of destabilizing and manipulating African nations. If we as Kenyans allow +Americans to influence us and manipulate our new constitution, we shall have set +the way for other African nations to similarly be manipulated."" It does not +appear that some elements are prepared for a loss at the polls. This does not +mean that the religious leadership or its supporters will result to violence.

However, William Ruto has now delivered a statement stating that he +will accept the results. This may be driven by the strong messages of support for +the IIEC from Kenyan citizens which have been aired by the media all day which +make it more difficult for anyone choosing to undermine their results. +IIEC Performance +Voter Registry Problems: There have been some incidences of +misspelled names on the register — with proper identification most citizens were +still allowed to vote at most polling stations despite minor spelling errors. +However, these problems do not appear to be on a scale that could undermine the +credibility of the process overall. +• Materials Distribution Challenges: Throughout the country, most of +the polling stations received their ballot materials. Most of the polling stations +opened on time (06:00 am) or shortly thereafter. Ballot materials in Tana River +were lost once the IIEC's canoes leaked but no one was hurt and the commission +stated they would get materials to the center later in the day. There have been a +few complaints by the ""no"" camp that ballot papers were inappropriately colored +at some stations (they were orange) — the IIEC responded by stating they would +attempt to replace the papers in the affected areas. +• Commissioners' Optimism. NDI held a brief ""off the record"" meeting +with the Chair of the IIEC and later with most of the IIEC Commissioners. In +both meetings there was acknowledgement of the challenges that the commission +had faced during the first half of the election-day but there was also a visible level +of optimism among the Commissioners that the process was generally being seen +as an open, transparent and participatory one. The Commission has issued two +statements thus far. Both are attached to this update. +• Announcement of Results. Officially IIEC has 48 hours from the close +of polls (17:00 today) to release results (pushing the deadline to 17:00 Friday, +Kenya team). However, the IIEC is releasing interim results by polling station +and the team thinks the picture will be clear as early as tomorrow morning. If the +process proceeds smoothly, it is likely that the PVT results will be announced +after the IIEC's interim results but before the official results. +Wage +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770226 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770226 Date: 08/31/2015 +Election Observers +• Domestic Observers. The IIEC says that it certified 41 domestic election +observation groups totaling close to 30,000 observers. NDI's partner, the +Election Observation Group (ELOG) is fielding more than 10,000 observers. 702 +of the ELOG observers are dedicated to the PVT exercise. ELOG issued two +statements today (both are attached). +• International Observers. There are at least three international observer +missions in Kenya for the referendum. The missions are from the +Commonwealth (3 observers) that were not deployed outside of Nairobi; the East +Africa Community (EAC) delegation is also a small one (8 observers) and is +headed by EALA member, Hon. Leonce Ndarubagiye from Burundi; and the +European Union has an ""informal presence"" in Nairobi. Last week the EU +released a statement praising the IIEC's preparations for the referendum. The +African Union has also sent an observation mission. Finally, a number of +Embassies deployed staff ""observers"" throughout the country. +• ""Yes"" and ""No"" Polling Station Agents. Observers from the both +campaigns were out in force. According to the ELOG (PVT) observers YES and +NO observers were present in close to 68% of the polling centers visited. They are +allowed 1 per committee per polling station. With 8 committees the maximum +could be as much as 240,000 agents. NDI trained the constituency chief agents +for all 8 committees and the PVT qualitative results show that only 7% of polling +stations did not have agents present at the opening. Some No observers have +raised concerns about inappropriately colored ballot papers (they were orange). +Otherwise, there have been no serious complaints reported by either side. Some +have also made claims that they were prevented from operating but claims of this +type have been sporadic, rather than systematic. There have also been claims +from the No side that the heavy police presence in the Rift Valley is designed to +intimidate their voters but this has not been backed by feedback from the public +at large as aired by the media. +• Regional Liaison Observers: There are 20 regional liaison observers +throughout the country - all of their reports have been positive and indicate that +the process was smooth and there has been no violence. There have been a few +minor problems on the register. At present they are observing the tallying +process. +3 1Page +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770226 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770226 Date: 08/31/2015 +The ELOG PVT Exercise +ELOGs PVT operation faced some challenges early in the day because observers were +either prevented from entering the polling station or had their phones confiscated. This +was the result of poor internal communication within the IIEC which prevented helpful +decisions made by the Commission filtering down to Presiding Officers on the ground. +The IIEC has been helpful during the day in resolving at least some of these problems. +By 7pm text messages had been received from all but a few PVT observers (96% of the +first message and 94% of the second message). ELOG have been able to use reports from +their observers in a representative sample of polling stations to draw conclusions about +the overall process across the country. +On opening, they reported that: +- 99% of polling stations were set up for secret voting +- l00% of polling stations had ballot boxes which were empty prior to being sealed +- 96% of polling stations had no key materials missing +- 98% of polling stations were open by 7.15am +On the voting process they reported: +- 99% of polling stations reported no attempts to disrupt the voting process +- 98% of polling stations had no cases of voters not being inked +- 84% of polling stations had no cases of voters being allowed to vote without an ID +or without their name on the register +- 42% had no cases of voters not being permitted to vote (because they were not +registered), 55% had a few cases (1-14) and 3% had some cases (15-49) +- The only issue observed which is difficult to interpret without additional +information is the incidence of assisted voting. 5% reported no cases; 27% +reported a few cases; 47% reported some cases and 22% reported many cases (50 +or more). +Overall, ELOG has received 162 critical incident reports from its entire 10,000+ +cadre of observers. Of these, 111 were observers not being permitted to observe. +NDI Mapping Update: NDI has provided maps to visualize critical incidence to +Elections Observation Group (ELOG). NDI also provided routing maps that pinpointed +polling stations to IIEC who used them to assist the foreign media and their own staff +and to observers from the US and several European embassies. +Wage +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770226 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770226 Date: 08/31/2015 +Challenges Ahead +• Release of the results: The IIEC's wish to show the results from all +27,000 polling stations in real time has proved to be over ambitious. However, +the counting is going well and there should not be significant delays in the overall +reporting process. +• Acceptance of the results: Perhaps the biggest fear is that the ""No"" +camp is not going to accept the results and this will spark post-electoral violence +(especially in the Rift Valley). So far there is no evidence that this will occur. +However, the point of greatest danger is after the announcement of the results, +not before. So far as the political leader of the No side, William Ruto, is +concerned, the results in Rift Valley are at least as important as the national total. +If the No side has performed as well as expected there, he may not have an +interest in seeking to undermine the credibility of the tallying and reporting +process. +5 'Page +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770226 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5453,C05770227,THE POLITICAL RAMIFICATIONS OF THE GREEK/EUROPEAN DEBT CRISIS,H,"Slaughter, Anne-Marie",10,2010-05-08T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0078/DOC_0C05770227/C05770227.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: The political ramifications of the Greek/European debt crisis,,"Slaughter, Anne-Marie ","Sullivan, Jacob J ","Saturday, May 8, 2010 7:50 AM",F-2014-20439,C05770227,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770227 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B5 +From: Slaughter, Anne-Marie +Sent: Saturday, May 8, 2010 7:50 AM +To: +Subject: Re: The political ramifications of the Greek/European debt crisis +Original Message --- +From: H +To: Slaughter, Anne-Marie +Sent: Sat May 08 06:57:27 2010 +Subject: Re: The political ramifications of the Greek/European debt crisis +Pis share w me whatever S/P prepares. +Thx. +Original Message --- +From: Slaughter, Anne-Marie +To: H +Cc: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Thu May 06 19:18:12 2010 +Subject: The political ramifications of the Greek/European debt crisis +As you know, the EU-IMF-USG consensus hope motivating the Greek bailout is that it will buy time for Spain, Portugal, +etc. From widening credit spreads to falling stock prices, most relevant market indicators are responding with doubt. +Former IMF Chief Economist and NYT Columnist (and influential blogger for bond traders) Simon Johnson has an +important reioinder to this consensus hope in today's NYT, full text pasted below. +As the EU has no playbook for most of the pressing questions it faces, my staff is working to +brainstorm as to the least bad of what are only sobering options. +This is long but worth it. +May 6, 2010, 6:11 amIt's Not About Greece AnymoreBy PETER BOONE AND SIMON JOHNSONLouisa Gouliamaki/Agence +France-Presse — Getty Images Protesters waved flags from the Acropolis archaeological site behind banners in English +and Greek hung in front of the Parthenon temple in Athens.Peter Boone is chairman of the charity Effective Intervention +and a research associate at the Center for Economic Performance at the London School of Economics.

They have +abandoned previous rounds of optimistic forecasts and have now admitted to a profoundly worse situation. This new +program calls for ""fiscal adjustments"" — cuts to the fiscal deficit, mostly through spending cuts — totaling 11 percent of +gross domestic product in 2010, 4.3 percent in 2011, and 2 percent in 2012 and 2013. The total debt-to-G.D.P. ratio +peaks at 149 percent in 2012-13 before starting a gentle glide path back down to sanity.This new program is honest +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770227 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770227 Date: 08/31/2015 +enough to show why it is unlikely to succeed.Daniel Gros, an eminent economist on euro zone issues based in Brussels, +has argued that for each 1 percent of G.D.P. decline in Greek government spending, total demand in the country falls by +2.5 percent of G.D.P. If the government reduces spending by 15 percent of G.D.P. — the initial shock to demand could +be well over 30 percent of G.D.P.Obviously this simple rule does not work with such large numbers, but it illustrates that +Greece is likely to experience a very sharp recession — and there is substantial uncertainty around how bad the +economy will get. The program announced last weekend assumes Greek G.D.P. falls by 4 percent this year, then by +another 2.6 percent in 2011, before recovering to positive growth in 2012 and beyond.Such figures seem extremely +optimistic, particularly in the face of the civil unrest now sweeping Greece and the deep hostility expressed toward +Greece in some northern European policy circles.The pattern of growth is critical because, under this program, Greece +needs to grow out of its debt problem soon. Greece's debt-to-G.D.P. ratio will be a debilitating 145 percent at the end +of 2011.Now consider putting more realistic growth figures into the I.M.F. forecast for Greece's economy — e.g., with +G.D.P. declining 12 percent in 2011, then the debt-to-G.D.P. ratio may reach 155 percent. At these levels, with a 5 +percent real interest rate and no growth, the country needs a primary surplus at 8 percent of G.D.P. to keep the debt-to- +G.D.P. ratio stable. It will be nowhere near that level. The I.M.F. program has Greece running a primary budget deficit +of around 1 percent of G.D.P. in that year, and that assumes a path for Greek growth that can be regarded only as an +""upside scenario.""The politics of these implied budget surpluses remains brutal. Since most Greek debt is held abroad, +roughly 80 percent of the budget savings the Greek government makes go straight to Germans, French and other foreign +debt holders (mostly banks). If growth turns out poorly, will the Greeks be prepared for ever-tougher austerity to pay +the Germans? Even if everything goes well, Greek citizens seem unlikely to welcome this version of their ""new normal."" +Last week the European leadership panicked — very late in the day — when it realized that the euro zone itself was at +risk of a meltdown. If the euro zone proves unwilling to protect a member like Greece from default, then bond investors +will run from Portugal and Spain also — if you doubt this, study carefully the interlocking debt picture published +recently in The New York Times. Higher yields on government debt would have caused concerns about potential bank +runs in these nations, and then spread to more nations in Europe.When there is such a ""run,"" it is not clear where it +stops. In the hazy distance, Belgium, France, Austria and many others were potentially at risk. +Even the Germans cannot afford to bail out those nations.Slapped in the face by this ugly scenario, the Europeans +decided to throw everything they and the I.M.F. had at bailing out Greece. The program as announced has only a small +chance of preventing eventual Greek bankruptcy, but it may still slow or avert a dangerous spiral downward — and +enormous collateral damage — in the rest of Europe.The I.M.F. floated in some fashion an alternative scenario with a +debt restructuring, but this was rejected by both the European Union and the Greek authorities. This is not a surprise; +leading European policy makers are completely unprepared for broader problems that would follow a Greek +""restructuring,"" because markets would immediately mark down the debt (i.e., increase the yields) for Portugal, Spain, +Ireland and even Italy.The fear and panic in the face of this would be unparalleled in modern times: When the Greeks +pay only 50 percent on the face value of their debt, what should investors expect from the Portuguese and Spanish? It +all becomes arbitrary, including which countries are dragged down.Someone has to decide who should be defended and +at what cost, and the European structures are completely unsuited to this kind of tough decision-making under +pressure.ln the extreme downside scenario, Germany is the only obvious safe haven within the euro zone, so its +government bond yields would collapse while other governments face sharply rising yields. The euro zone would likely +not hold together.There is still a narrow escape path, without immediate debt default and the chaos that that would +produce:- +Talk down the euro — moving toward parity with the American dollar would help lift growth across the euroz one.- +As the euro falls, bond yields will rise on the euro zone periphery. This will create episodes of panic. Enough short-term +financing must be in place to support the rollover of government debt.- +Once the euro has fallen a great deal, announce the European Central Bank will support the euro at those levels (i.e., +prevent appreciation, with G-20 tacit agreement), and also support the peripheral euro zone nations viewed as solvent +by buying their bonds whenever markets are chaotic.- +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770227 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770227 Date: 08/31/2015 +At that stage, but not before, the euro zone leadership needs to push weaker governments to restructure.

Eikenberry, and the top U.S. military commander there, Gen. +Stanley A. McChrystal, assumed their posts amid lofty expectations that they could re-create the hand-in-glove +partnership that Gen. David H. Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan C. Crocker had while leading the war effort in +Iraq. +But the Eikenberry-and-McChrystal team that returns to Washington this week, alongside Afghan President +Hamid Karzai, has a much different dynamic. +Both men said in interviews that they enjoy a productive relationship and have built stronger bonds between +troops and civilians across Afghanistan. Still, they have had significant disagreements over the course of the +Afghanistan war and have struggled to align their visions for how to work with Karzai's government, according +to interviews with U.S., NATO and Afghan officials. +Few critics suggest that those differences have harmed U.S. interests in Afghanistan. People who have worked +with both men said, however, that clear tensions exist at the top of the Obama administration's most important +military and foreign policy endeavor. +At times their differences over strategy have been public, particularly after two of Eikenberry's cables to +Washington last year were leaked to the news media. The cables warned that McChrystal's request for new +troops might be counterproductive as Karzai was ""not an adequate strategic partner."" McChrystal's staff +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770242 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770242 Date: 08/31/2015 +members were particularly upset that they weren't made aware of Eikenberry's position before he sent the cables +to Washington, they said in interviews. +Eikenberry has resisted some of McChrystal's wartime experiments. The ambassador refused to release funds to +expand a military effort to turn villagers into armed guards. He opposed one Army brigade's plan to form an +anti-Taliban alliance with a Pashtun tribe and funnel it development money. He criticized the military's proposal +to buy generators and diesel fuel for the energy-starved city of Kandahar and supported a longer-term +hydroelectric dam project. +Their views have diverged despite shared experience: Eikenberry served 18 months as the NATO commander +in Afghanistan, the job McChrystal now holds, before retiring from the military and returning as ambassador. +As McChrystal has overhauled the war strategy, some of the legacy he is undoing is Eikenberry's. +Eikenberry wanted to become NATO's senior civilian representative, in addition to his job as ambassador, but +McChrystal recommended against it, according to diplomats in Kabul. A British diplomat, Mark Sedwill, got +the job. +""You have two generals of similar rank who don't agree on the policy, who apparently don't like each other. It +makes for a difficult relationship,"" said Peter W. Galbraith, who served as the top U.S. official in the United +Nations' mission to Afghanistan during last year's contested presidential election. +Both men have tried to dispel notions that they disagree on strategy and don't get along. +""The best metaphor I can give you is of an athletic team,"" Eikenberry said. ""We play different positions. We +have different but complementary roles. Of course, sometimes we're going to disagree on what's the best play to +call, but we're absolutely committed as teammates to see the president's strategy is well-executed."" +McChrystal said that he and Eikenberry cooperate effectively and that their relationship should not be measured +against the Petraeus-Crocker pairing in Iraq. +""We've known each other for many years. We talk through all the things we deal with,"" McChrystal said. ""Some +people are looking for an Iraq model. But Iraq wasn't a 46-nation coalition."" +Civil-military integration +The two generals first crossed professional paths in 2002, when McChrystal, who had worked as chief of staff +under Gen. Dan K. McNeill, then coalition commander, helped prepare Eikenberry for a job in Kabul building +the fledgling Afghan National Army. Later, McChrystal ran the Joint Special Operations Command when +Eikenberry held the top military job in Afghanistan. +They now work more independently because their roles aren't perfectly aligned, they said, with McChrystal in +charge of the 130,000-strong NATO coalition, not just the American contingent. +Some disagreements between the men may reflect growing pains, as the military makes room for what has +become the second-largest U.S. embassy in the world, after the one in Iraq. When-President °barna took office +last year, there were 360 American civilians in Afghanistan. Now there are more than 1,000 and counting, the +most rapid growth of a U.S. civilian mission since the Vietnam War. +Military field commanders who once may have had political advisers now share authority with co-equal civilian +representatives backed by growing staffs. The result is a more forceful civilian voice in decision-making. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770242 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770242 Date: 08/31/2015 +When Eikenberry has resisted a military proposal, the rationale is often that he does not want to undermine the +Afghan government and the development of its security forces. He says that he must take into account factors +beyond short-term stability and that programs without Afghan government ownership won't be sustainable. +""I think that both of us are very proud of the degree of civil-military integration we've been able to achieve in +the year that we've been here together,"" Eikenberry said. ""So, of course, there's going to be different +perspectives, there's going to be robust debates, and you really want that. You've got to encourage that."" +Divided over Karzai +Perhaps the most visible difference in approach is how the men work with Karzai. +McChrystal has adopted a role akin to chief diplomat, building a close partnership with Karzai. In monthly +White House review sessions, McChrystal has argued that U.S. officials should show more public deference to +Karzai, who he frequently reminds others is ""the elected leader of a sovereign country,"" administration officials +said. +In the interview, McChrystal called Karzai a ""great partner"" who has been ""absolutely straightforward with me +and been reliable."" +Some officials said he has built his relationship with Karzai at the expense of candor. In some instances, he has +chosen a less politically controversial path, U.S. officials said, citing his decision to work with Ahmed Wali +Karzai, the president's half brother, rather than stress his alleged criminal activity. +""If I don't have credibility with President Karzai, then I think I can't be an effective commander here,"" +McChrystal said. ""And it doesn't mean just getting along with him and telling him what he wants to hear. It's +convincing him that I'm being a reliable and honest interlocutor with him."" +Eikenberry, meanwhile, has had to deliver tougher messages about corruption and governance that often upset +Karzai, and his rapport with the mercurial president has seemed to suffer. +During a lengthy policy review in the fall, Eikenberry argued against sending additional U.S. troops to +Afghanistan. And U.S. officials said he continues to think that the United States should find other Afghan +figures, including provincial leaders, to work with rather than rely so heavily on Karzai. Eikenberry's position +infuriated Karzai, who often views U.S. support for ""sub-national governments"" in Afghanistan as a threat to his +authority. +Karzai is a cunning politician who has tried to play Eikenberry and McChrYstal off each other and exploit any +political differences, U.S. officials said. In recent months, when Karzai has come under U.S. pressure to reform +his corrupt government, he has often lashed out publicly. +Since McChrystal took command in June, he has met Karzai more than 45 times, mostly one-on-one, including +a regular Sunday morning chat in the presidential palace. In an effort to present Karzai as commander in chief, +McChrystal has flown him across the country on five ""battlefield circulations."" +McChrystal has done more than his predecessors, including Eikenberry, to minimize civilian casualties, such as +restricting the use of air power and night raids. He has regularly apologized to Karzai for civilian deaths and +shown him video and slide presentations to explain how such mistakes occur. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770242 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770242 Date: 08/31/2015 +""He was the first military man to really show that he respected and would respond to Karzai's agenda, civilian +casualties, of course, being the biggest issue,"" one senior NATO official said. ""In a sense, Karzai said, 'Here's a +soldier that finally I can deal with.'"" +Crocker, the former U.S. ambassador to Baghdad, said he and Petraeus rarely differed over policy or approach +and carefully calibrated their relationship with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouni al-Maliki, another, complicated +leader. The two almost always saw Maliki together. When meeting him alone, they would brief each other +before and after. +Of McChrystal and Eikenberry, Crocker said: ""They need to resolve any differences among themselves or take +it back to Washington because the stakes in Afghanistan are too great not to have a unified effort."" +Partlow reported from Kabul.

About 1,500 Liberal Democrats spontaneously protested at Lib-Dem +headquarters against a deal with the Tories given their policies, especially on Europe. But Clegg remains in +negotiations. He seems quite intent on working it out with Cameron, it appears. His inner Tory magnetically +draws him to his heritage. Clegg has also misplayed almost every turn, presented with big chances and blowing +them through a combination of inexperience (derived partly from heading a party out of power for nearly 100 +years) and inbred arrogance (from no less a privileged background than Cameron, though seeming less snobbish +because he went to Westminster instead of Eton and has a less pronounced upper-class accent, more neutral, +because of his more cosmopolitan roots through his family). +What about Labour? Shaun and a couple of others have rounded up about 29 votes from other parties (Scottish +National Party, NI parties, Welsh party) that could be part of a grand progressive once-in-a-lifetime coalition +that required the LDs. Gordon has said he will allow Clegg-Cameron discussions to play out and a general offer +to Clegg is on the table, its terms giving far more on a referendum and policy than the Tories. Behind the +scenes, Labour is putting whatever harsh pressure it can on LD leaders. Peter is playing a cynical double game. +He is a sectarian in a sect of one. Yet Gordon for strange psychological reasons rooted in his triangle with Tony +and Peter relies on Peter. Peter, according to Shaun, has wrung a pledge from Borwn that if Brown emerges +from this crisis he, Peter, will replace David as Foreign Secretary. Meanwhile, Peter has advised David to +sideline himself David has done so instead of being forward as a strong party man behind Brown in dire straits. +Standing back only makes David look ambitious, waiting for Brown to lose and aiming to a leadership contest +afterward, when Peter, as he has promised, would guide David to the prize. The plot thickens: Ed Miliband, +David's younger brother, the environment secretary, will runfor leader against his brother if Brown loses. Ed +has more of a common touch. The outcome of that contest would be more than uncertain. But before that +eventuality Gordon's team reaches out to the LDs in private. Yet Shaun's attitude, as I read it, leans toward +pessmism. A London Times polls just out says 62 percent want Gordon out. Where were the fickle voters in the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770243 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770243 Date: 08/31/2015 +election? The poll shows more than discontent with Gordon, but also how people are being whipped by the +Murdoch media. +What about the Tories? A secret memo from William Hague to Cameron written before the election was leaked +this morning to The Observer (the Sunday paper of The Guardian), proposes an anti-Europe line of the new +government. (I've enclosed the article below.) The atmosphere inside the Conservatives is acrid and anxious. +But Lord Ashcroft, the Tory moneyman, who spent five million pounds alone in marginal districts, is furious +that Cameron failed to win outright, failed in his campaign, made a foolish decision to include Clegg in the +debates, etc. Many agree with the evil Ashcroft. But the finger pointing won't matter if a deal works with +Clegg. The Conservative strategy would be to coopt Clegg now, do whatever deal can be done, maintain a more +or less center-right but moderated government for about a year, call a new election, win outright on the +momentum of the recovery engineered by Brown but claimed by Tories as proof that the change was +responsible, jettison Clegg and the LDs, and govern from the radical right as the children of Thatcher for five +years. The Tories would then move on their electoral reforms: cutting the number of seats in Parliament, +redistricting in Conservative favor, and trying to outlaw union contributions to the Labour Party. +What about the LDs? Clegg's deal with the Tories would of course thwart any Lib-Lab coalition, probably the +only chance for a grand progressive alliance that would keep the Tories out of power forever. Clegg's personal +instincts obviously lean toward the Tories, having little to do with policy. The party's leaders may be opposed, +but they are also likely to be feckless and weak as they always have been. +So, whatever the case, I would doubt you'll see David again as Foreign Secretary. Prepare for hauge, who is +deeply anti-European and will be disingenuous with you. Tory budget cuts in NI, already announced, would +cause havoc with peace and economic recovery. I'd send a private message asap on that score the second a new +government is announced, if it is. Tilt publicly to Merkel on Europe for this reason among others. +Article below: +Tory-Lib Dem coalition threatened by secret +hardline memo on Europe +•Draft letter by William Hague sets out tough stance on EU +•Leak follows leaders""constructive, amicable' meeting +Toby Helm and Anushka Asthana +• The Observer, Sunday 9 May 2010 +David Cameron's hopes of forming a coalition with the Liberal Democrats were dramatically undermined last +night by the leaking of a top-secret letter outlining the hardline Eurosceptic stance he and William Hague +planned to adopt in government. +The document, obtained by the Observer, is headed ""draft letter from Foreign Secretary to Prime Minister"" and +was written last week.

About 1,500 Liberal Democrats spontaneously protested at +Lib-Dern headquarters against a deal with the Tories given their policies, especially on Europe. +But Clegg remains in negotiations. He seems quite intent on working it out with Cameron, it +appears. His inner Tory magnetically draws him to his heritage. Clegg has also misplayed almost +every turn, presented with big chances and blowing them through a combination of inexperience +(derived partly from heading a party out of power for nearly 100 years) and inbred arrogance +(from no less a privileged background than Cameron, though seeming less snobbish because he +went to Westminster instead of Eton and has a less pronounced upper-class accent, more neutral, +because of his more cosmopolitan roots through his family). +What about Labour? Shaun and a couple of others have rounded up about 29 votes from other +parties (Scottish National Party, NI parties, Welsh party) that could be part of a grand +progressive once-in-a-lifetime coalition that required the LDs. Gordon has said he will allow +Clegg-Cameron discussions to play out and a general offer to Clegg is on the table, its terms +giving far more on a referendum and policy than the Tories. Behind the scenes, Labour is putting +whatever harsh pressure it can on LD leaders. Peter is playing a cynical double game. He is a +sectarian in a sect of one. Yet Gordon for strange psychological reasons rooted in his triangle +with Tony and Peter relies on Peter. Peter, according to Shaun, has wrung a pledge from Borwn +that if Brown emerges from this crisis he, Peter, will replace David as Foreign Secretary. +Meanwhile, Peter has advised David to sideline himself. David has done so instead of being +forward as a strong party man behind Brown in dire straits. Standing back only makes David +look ambitious, waiting for Brown to lose and aiming to a leadership contest afterward, when +Peter, as he has promised, would guide David to the prize. The plot thickens: Ed Miliband, +David's younger brother, the environment secretary, will run for leader against his brother if +Brown loses. Ed has more of a common touch. The outcome of that contest would be more than +uncertain. But before that eventuality Gordon's team reaches out to the LDs in private. Yet +Shaun's attitude, as I read it, leans toward pessmism. A London Times polls just out says 62 +percent want Gordon out. Where were the fickle voters in the election? The poll shows more +than discontent with Gordon, but also how people are being whipped by the Murdoch media. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770244 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770244 Date: 08/31/2015 +What about the Tories? A secret memo from William Hague to Cameron written before the +election was leaked this morning to The Observer (the Sunday paper of The Guardian), proposes +an anti-Europe line of the new government. (I've enclosed the article below.) The atmosphere +inside the Conservatives is acrid and anxious. But Lord Ashcroft, the Tory moneyman, who +spent five million pounds alone In marginal districts, is furious that Cameron failed to win +outright, failed in his campaign, made a foolish decision to include Clegg in the debates, etc. +Many agree with the evil Ashcroft. But the finger pointing won't matter if a deal works with +Clegg. The Conservative strategy would be to coopt Clegg now, do whatever deal can be done, +maintain a more or less center-right but moderated government for about a year, call a new +election, win outright on the momentum of the recovery engineered by Brown but claimed by +Tories as proof that the change was responsible, jettison Clegg and the LDs, and govern from the +radical right as the children of Thatcher for five years. The Tories would then move on their +electoral reforms: cutting the number of seats in Parliament, redistricting in Conservative favor, +and trying to outlaw union contributions to the Labour Party. +What about the LDs? Clegg's deal with the Tories would of course thwart any Lib-Lab coalition, +probably the only chance for a grand progressive alliance that would keep the Tories out of +power forever. Clegg's personal instincts obviously lean toward the Tories, having little to do +with policy. The party's leaders may be opposed, but they are also likely to be feckless and weak +as they always have been. +So, whatever the case, I would doubt you'll see David again as Foreign Secretary. Prepare for +hauge, who is deeply anti-European and will be disingenuous with you. Tory budget cuts in NI, +already announced, would cause havoc with peace and economic recovery. I'd send a private +message asap on that score the second a new government is announced, if it is.

He called on all elements of Kenyan society to implement +the constitution. Referring to opposition to the constitution, Kibaki said their voices would be heard.

About 1,500 Liberal Democrats spontaneously protested at Lib-Dem headquarters +against a deal with the Tories given their policies, especially on Europe. But Clegg remains in negotiations. He seems +quite intent on working it out with Cameron, it appears. His inner Tory magnetically draws him to his heritage.

Shaun and a couple of others have rounded up about 29 votes from other parties (Scottish National +Party, NI parties, Welsh party) that could be part of a grand progressive once-in-a-lifetime coalition that required the +LDs. Gordon has said he will allow Clegg-Cameron discussions to play out and a general offer to Clegg is on the table, its +terms giving far more on a referendum and policy than the Tories. Behind the scenes, Labour is putting whatever harsh +pressure it can on LD leaders. Peter is playing a cynical double game. He is a sectarian in a sect of one. Yet Gordon for +strange psychological reasons rooted in his triangle with Tony and Peter relies on Peter. Peter, according to Shaun, has +wrung a pledge from Borwn that if Brown emerges from this crisis he, Peter, will replace David as Foreign Secretary. +Meanwhile, Peter has advised David to sideline himself. David has done so instead of being forward as a strong party +man behind Brown in dire straits. Standing back only makes David look ambitious, waiting for Brown to lose and aiming +to a leadership contest afterward, when Peter, as he has promised, would guide David to the prize. The plot thickens: Ed +Miliband, David's younger brother, the environment secretary, will run for leader against his brother if Brown loses. Ed +has more of a common touch. The outcome of that contest would be more than uncertain. But before that eventuality +Gordon's team reaches out to the LDs in private. Yet Shaun's attitude, as I read it, leans toward pessmism. A London +Times polls just out says 62 percent want Gordon out. Where were the fickle voters in the election? The poll shows more +than discontent with Gordon, but also how people are being whipped by the Murdoch media. +What about the Tories? A secret memo from William Hague to Cameron written before the election was leaked this +morning to The Observer (the Sunday paper of The Guardian), proposes an anti-Europe line of the new government. +(I've enclosed the article below.) The atmosphere inside the Conservatives is acrid and anxious. But Lord Ashcroft, the +Tory moneyman, who spent five million pounds alone in marginal districts, is furious that Cameron failed to win outright, +failed in his campaign, made a foolish decision to include Clegg in the debates, etc. Many agree with the evil Ashcroft. +But the finger pointing won't matter if a deal works with Clegg. The Conservative strategy would be to coopt Clegg now, +do whatever deal can be done, maintain a more or less center-right but moderated government for about a year, call a +new election, win outright on the momentum of the recovery engineered by Brown but claimed by Tories as proof that +the change was responsible, jettison Clegg and the LDs, and govern from the radical right as the children of Thatcher for +five years. The Tories would then move on their electoral reforms: cutting the number of seats in Parliament, +redistricting in Conservative favor, and trying to outlaw union contributions to the Labour Party. +What about the LDs? Clegg's deal with the Tories would of course thwart any Lib-Lab coalition, probably the only chance +for a grand progressive alliance that would keep the Tories out of power forever. Clegg's personal instincts obviously +lean toward the Tories, having little to do with policy. The party's leaders may be opposed, but they are also likely to be +feckless and weak as they always have been. +So, whatever the case, I would doubt you'll see David again as Foreign Secretary. Prepare for hauge, who is deeply anti- +European and will be disingenuous with you. Tory budget cuts in NI, already announced, would cause havoc with peace +and economic recovery. I'd send a private message asap on that score the second a new government is announced, if it +is. Tilt publicly to Merkel on Europe for this reason among others. +Article below: +Tory-Lib Dem coalition threatened by secret hardline memo on Europe • Draft letter by William Hague sets out tough +stance on EU • Leak follows leaders""constructive, amicable' meeting Toby Helm + and Anushka Asthana + +* The Observer , Sunday 9 May 2010 +David Cameron 's hopes of forming a coalition with the Liberal +Democrats were dramatically undermined last night by the +leaking of a top-secret letter outlining the hardline Eurosceptic stance he and William Hague + planned to adopt in government. +The document, obtained by the Observer, is headed ""draft letter from Foreign Secretary to Prime Minister"" and was +written last week. It assumed an outright Tory victory and spelt out how Hague intended to adopt a tough approach to +Europe at a meeting of EU foreign ministers in Brussels tomorrow. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770267 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770267 Date: 08/31/2015 +In the letter, compiled by civil servants but written in the first person, Hague tells Cameron how his message would be +that ""the British relationship with the EU has changed with our election"" to one firmly against any further integration. +Exposing the massive gulf between Liberal Democrat leader Nick Clegg +and the Conservative leadership on Europe, Hague says he would demand the right to repatriate powers over criminal +justice as well as social and employment policy during the first term of a Tory government — demands many EU leaders +say they would resist. +Hague planned to tell his EU counterparts: ""Rest assured that we seek engagement, not confrontation. But our aim is to +achieve these commitments during this parliament."" He would also tell his first foreign ministers' meeting ""we will never +join the euro"" and conclude: ""You will find us firm but fair, playing a leading role, fighting our corner, practical and +straight-talking."" +Last night the Tories said they had no knowledge of the letter. But the Observer understands it was drawn up on the +basis of detailed briefings between senior civil servants and Hague. The document came to light as Clegg, a strong pro- +European, yesterday met his MPs and senior party figures to discuss a possible coalition with the Tories, who emerged +from Thursday's general election with the largest number of seats but short of an overall majority. +Cameron and Clegg held face-to-face talks late yesterday as they continued their attempts to thrash out a power-sharing +deal. A senior Conservative party spokeswoman said the talks were ""constructive and amicable"". The 70-minute meeting +took place at Admiralty House in Whitehall. A Lib Dem spokesman also described the discussions as ""constructive and +amicable"". +Tory and Lib Dem sources said last night that discussions would not conclude until the beginning of the coming week at +the earliest. An emergency meeting of the 1922 committee of Tory backbenchers will be held tomorrow to discuss the +possible coalition. Today, Hague, Oliver Letwin and George Osborne + will resume talks with the Lib Dems' Vince Cable, Chris Huhne +and David Laws. +But the stark language used in the letter is bound to alarm Clegg, who has been savage in his criticism of the +Conservatives ' attitude to Europe which he believes is rooted in +the past and will limit Britain's ability to fight cross-border crime and meet the environmental challenges of the 21st +century. +The document will also be seen by Lib Dem MPs and the party's rank and file as evidence that their pro-Europeanism +would be compromised by linking up with the Tories. A Lib Dem spokesman said the party was strongly pro-European, +but would not be drawn on the document. +Yesterday Cameron came under pressure from senior figures in his own party not to give in to Clegg's demands by +watering down Conservative manifesto commitments. Shadow defence secretary Liam Fox warned that a Tory +government could not be ""held to ransom"" by Lib Dems demanding proportional representation. +Clegg may also face opposition from within his party to any attempt to form a coalition with the Tories, particularly on +economic issues. +Yesterday the Social Liberal Forum, which represents left-leaning Lib Dems and includes a third of the party's MPs, +issued a set of ""red lines"" which it said the party must not cross, including any measure that would increase the gap +between the rich and poor — ruling out supporting the Tory pledge to cut inheritance tax. Three other red lines were any +suggestion of cuts to frontline services in the current financial year, any worsening treatment of asylum seekers and any +watering-down of the human rights act. +Meanwhile, Gordon Brown and his closest advisers were working on how to expand their counter-offer to the Lib Dems, +including a referendum on changes to the voting system. Senior officials said Labour was planning to draw up a formal +""coalition contract"" — as happens in Germany — that would bind the Lib Dems and other smaller parties into a deal if the +Tory discussions with the Lib Dems were to fail. +Most Labour ministers now believe Brown would have to step down before Clegg would consider a pact, though senior +government insiders insisted this was not being discussed as an option. +One re-elected Labour MP, John Mann, of Bassetlaw, called on Brown to step down as Labour leader, claiming that the +party would have influence on the outcome of the current negotiations only if Brown agreed to give up the leadership. +""Brown should not lead Labour into any future election and he should stand down before the next Labour party +conference,"" he said. ""Gordon Brown's continuation as leader rules out the credibility of a Lib-Lab pact that has to +prioritise the modernisation and reform of the antiquated UK political systems."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770267 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5474,C05770271,GOMES,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-08-05T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0090/DOC_0C05770271/C05770271.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: Gomes,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J ","Tesone, Mark","Thursday, August 5, 2010 6:54 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770271,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,FYI,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770271 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B5 +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Thursday, August 5, 2010 6:54 PM +To: H +Subject: FW: Gomes +FYI +From: Kim, Sung Y +Sent: Thursday, August 05, 2010 6:09 PM +To: Campbell, Kurt M; Sullivan, Jacob J +Cc: Tesone, Mark +Subject: Gomes +SBU +This email is UNCLASSIFIED. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770271 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5475,C05770272,FOLLOWUP,H,SullivanJJ@state.gov,87,2010-05-09T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0078/DOC_0C05770272/C05770272.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Followup,,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Sunday, May 9, 2010 8:33 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770272,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"RCH talked to Lute, who said he would fix before it goes final, the whole thing is on hold thru Karzai, but we can expect +to see another version next week.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770272 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Sunday, May 9, 2010 8:33 PM +To: +Subject Re: Followup +RCH talked to Lute, who said he would fix before it goes final, the whole thing is on hold thru Karzai, but we can expect +to see another version next week. +Original Message ---- +From: H +To: Sullivan, Jacobi +Sent: Sun May 09 19:30:07 2010 +Subject: Followup +What happened re the minutes of Pak mtg at Mullen's? +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770272 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5476,C05770275,AMBASSADORS,H,"Verma, Richard R",180,2010-08-05T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0090/DOC_0C05770275/C05770275.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05770275,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Verma, Richard R +Thursday, August 5, 2010 10:14 PM +Mills, Cheryl D; Abedin, Huma; Sullivan, Jacob J; Rodriguez, Miguel E +Ambassadors +We had 31 noms on the Exec Calendar as of tonight.

He lived in six foster homes in ten +years. +""Moving to these different homes. The kids were like 'you weren't here yesterday.' Where's your mom at'?"" said Freeman. +At 18 years old, he left the system and went to college in search of room and board. He knew what people expected of kids in the foster +care system - not much. +""All I would hear is that they were in jail or homeless or weren't doing too well,"" said Freeman. +He beat the odds and graduated, but he felt ... alone. +""I can distinctly remember walking across the stage in undergrad. You know at graduation everyone has their cheer section that yells as +you walk across the stage and there was almost silence as I walked across,"" said Freeman. +It will be different this time. When Freeman gets, his diploma Saturday at the convention center, there will be 26 people - friends and +supporters from as far away as California - in D.C. to show their support. +Freeman also got a boost from an internship program for kids who have spent time in foster care. He was placed in the office +of then Senator Hillary Clinton. Clinton even mentions him in the updated version of her book ""It Takes A Village."" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770292 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770292 Date: 08/31/2015 +Now, he may use his law degree to work on public policy - especially children's issues.

Over the past few months AF/PDPA has defined the +philosophy, role, mission, audiences, core functions, and value added of public diplomacy and +public affairs in the Africa Bureau and set goals and strategies for the AF/PDPA office to excel. +The Department of State's expertise on public diplomacy programs and activities in +Africa, on the regional African public and media context, and on the Department's engagement +with the media and American audiences on African issues should reside in AF/PDPA. +The mission of Africa Bureau (AF) public diplomacy and public affairs is to support the +achievement of U.S. foreign policy goals and objectives, advance national interests, and enhance +national security by understanding, engaging, informing and influencing the people of Africa and +informing the people of the United States of America in order to create an enabling environment +and strong relationships for a healthy, mutually-beneficial U.S.-African partnership. +This four-year organizational development plan lays down specific goals, strategies and +actions/changes that will facilitate the highest level of performance of the office's core functions, +address the office's performance challenges, and take advantage of opportunities. Throughout +this plan is an ongoing commitment by AF/PDPA personnel to a renewed approach to their +work. The commitment is to increased initiative, more strategic thinking, more frequent and +earlier engagement in policy-making processes, and a fuller understanding by every staff +member of how his/her work contributes to the larger whole. Over the course of the next few +months, the approach of each AF/PDPA staff member will change as will a number of roles and +portfolios. This plan assumes that the rest of the AF Bureau not only will be receptive to these +changes but also will pro-actively seek AF/PDPA expertise and collaboration as appropriate. +The most visible outcome of this organizational development process will be the physical +reorganization in the Africa Bureau. As soon as space is available, AF/PDPA will embed public +diplomacy desk officers in the AF geographic offices. In order to make space available and to +increase coordination among the bureau's functional offices, all of which do some engaging of +civil society and private-sector audiences in the United States and in Africa, Assistant Secretary +Carson has asked the bureau's executive office to conduct a full-bureau analysis of office space +based on function, size and resource available. This analysis will inform the ultimate decisions +as to who sits where. +However, the most significant outcome of this process will not be the shuffling of office +space, but the results. The current AF/PDPA team is constantly short-staffed but at its core is an +innovative, talented team of Civil and Foreign Service +experts in engaging publics and the media and building +long-term relationships for the United States. With added +expertise, further integration with the rest of the Bureau +and a 21' century focus on networking, AF/PDPA will +produce results: more effective public diplomacy in +UNCLASSIFIED AF/PDPA Strategic P +""The U.S. must recognize the +necessity of orchestrating +networks of public, private and +civic actors to address global +problems"" +-- Anne-Marie Slaughter +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +Africa and public affairs in the United States and better informed policy-making in Washington. +AF/PDPA is adopting five major goals and will use seven cross-cutting strategies to +achieve the goals by taking dozens of specific steps and actions. +AF/PDPA Goals +By 2014: +I.

ABOUT THE ORGANIZATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROCESS +Since mid-January, the Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs Office of the Africa Bureau +(AF/PDPA) has been engaged in a practical, structured organizational development process that +seeks: +• To enhance the effectiveness of public diplomacy in Africa and the Africa Bureau's +public affairs in the United States; +• To improve AF/PDPA's ability to meet its mandates and fulfill its mission, and +• To directly address concerns raised by the OIG in its August 2009 inspection report of +the Africa Bureau - ISP-I-09-63 — about the need ""to better integrate AF/PDPA into the +Africa Bureau"" and to ""address the philosophy and role of public diplomacy and public +affairs in forming and contributing to the policy of the Africa Bureau in the medium and +longer term."" +This process is not a performance evaluation for any person, an inspection, or a judgment +on the relative value of any position. Through interviews, document reviews, and group +discussions the contractor led a volunteer organizational development team of PDPA staff and +leadership in analyzing office performance challenges, opportunities, strengths and weaknesses', +in clarifying what the public diplomacy and public affairs functions are needed to do in the +Africa Bureau (AF) — their philosophy, role, mission and value added - and in setting goals and +strategies for AF/PDPA to excel. +During this process AF/PDPA often took a zero-based approach to consideration of its +own existence, organization, location, and function. Over the first four months of this year the +majority of the staff in AF/PDPA continuously pressed themselves to define not only what they +do, but also the value of the tasks and activities they perform. Questions and options for +discussion during weekly brown bag sessions, meetings of senior leadership, as well as at a half- +day all-office meeting, challenged traditions and assumptions and defined primary audiences. +For example, from ""what if"" type questioning as to whether a public diplomacy (PD) +office is needed at all in a regional bureau came clarity about the role of AF/PDPA and its core +functions. The analysis of over a half dozen configurations for the public diplomacy country +affairs officer (PD desk) position, including eliminating it entirely, became the decision not only +to keep the geographic portfolios but to proceed as quickly as possible to embed the PD desks +into their corresponding geographic offices. This analysis has concluded that State Department +public engagement on Africa policy is best coordinated and led by an active joint public +diplomacy and public affairs office in the Africa Bureau - AF/PDPA. +1The ""Where You Are"" interim report was produced by the contractor in March 2010 with the input of AF/PDPA +staff. +UNCLASSIFIED AF/PDPA Strategic Plan 2010-2014 June 18, 2010 6 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +This process has followed the PD-version of the medical code ""primum non nocere"" — +first, do no harm to the field. However, just as in medicine this does not mean the changes to +which AF/PDPA is committing itself and those it is expecting from the AF Bureau, R, posts, and +other stakeholders will be easy or painless. +Additional information on the methodology of the process is found in Annex II. +II 21st CENTURY AFRICA PUBLIC DIPLOMACY & PUBLIC AFFAIRS — CONTEXT +AND MANDATES +The African public comprises eight hundred million +people who speak thousands of languages in forty-seven +countries spread across an area larger than China, the United +States and Western Europe combined. Most Africans have +no direct contact with America or Americans. +Africa has the world's fastest population growth rate. +Forty-four percent of the population is under 15 and African +youth are hungry for opportunity, education, and relevance. +Education is a top priority for families across the continent. +Traditional American educational and cultural diplomacy — +academic exchanges, English teaching, student advising, +libraries, and performing arts — provide what people want +and, as such, an important opportunity for U.S. Missions to reinforce priority messages and +themes. They also provide a two-way window that gives Africans a view of a more diverse, +complex, value-based America than is available on most flat screens, and US officials, access to, +and greater understanding of, local societies and emerging leaders in particular. +With estimates of no more than a fifth to a third of Africa's population having electricity +at home and historically centralized and inadequate national telecommunications infrastructure, +the web-based information revolution of the last twenty years largely bypassed Africa. Africa is +well on its way to leapfrogging right over it. Cell phone and other mobile handheld technologies +are connecting, informing and empowering urban and rural dwellers like never before. +The U.S. is generally well-regarded in Africa. The U.S.-Global Leadership Project found +in 2009 that 83% of sub-Saharan Africans approved of U.S. leadership. BBC World Service +polling found that 85% of Kenyans and 72% of Nigerians view U.S. influence as mainly +positive. Americans' interest in Africa is growing. For example, IIE's Open Doors report on +international educational exchange indicates that although still small, the percentage of American +students studying in Africa has increased steadily for the past fifteen years. The bonds that have +joined America's and Africa's history have created durable, complicated ties, strong opinions, +and sometimes unrealistic public expectations. This history, these trends, and the personal +popularity of President Obama create tremendous opportunity for public diplomacy in Africa. +UNCLASSIFIED AF/PDPA Strategic Plan 2010-2014 June 18, 2010 7 +""I do not see the countries and +peoples of Africa as a world apart; +I see Africa as a fundamental part +of our interconnected world -- as +partners with America on behalf of +the future we want for all of our +children. That partnership must be +grounded in mutual responsibility +and mutual respect."" +-- President Barack Obama +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +As African nations become stronger international players, as global networks — reputable +and nefarious — increasingly include Africans, as African diasporas are involved more regularly +back home, the number of priority themes and issues on which to engage a greater number of +audiences grows every year. The Africa Bureau places a priority on expanding public +programming outside of chancery compounds to reach more youth, women, and Muslim +communities as well as African diaspora and users of social media. Yet, Department of State +public engagement resources on and in Africa have been in short supply for years. +The Department of State's public diplomacy and public affairs Africa resources (human +and programmatic) are currently dwarfed by those in budgets in other U.S. government agencies +marked for specific angles of this purpose. For example, in Africa it is not unusual for a +Department of Defense (DOD) Military Information Support Team (MIST) to have three times +the number of American officers and budget of the Embassy's Public Affairs section. Peace +Corps can deliver a dozen American volunteer English teachers directly to rural schools in a +single country while State may be able to fund only one English teaching fellow to work on +Mission-theme-based curriculum development (i.e. English language instruction that uses good +governance, accountability, tolerance, respect for diversity and other themes.) USAID is able to +invest millions of dollars in media training via non-profit organizations while a single $100,000 +journalism grant is a major program for most public affairs sections in Africa. +Private charitable foundations, American businesses and non-profits also invest more on +communications, education and media in Africa than does the Department of State. Carnegie +and other foundations are investing tens of millions of dollars annually in specific African +universities over the course of a decade while the Fulbright program provides at most a few +scholars per year to these institutions. American +civil society groups spend more than AF's annual +domestic public affairs budget on informing and +engaging the American people on a single issue - +Darfur. +The resource imbalance is a reality, but in the 21' century it need not be the only factor +that defines effectiveness or even relative impact.

Legal mandates such as Smith-Mundt and +the Fulbright-Hayes regulations are explicit. +They restrict resources for certain kinds of +activities. ""Understood mandates"" are those that +are widely assumed to be part of the job and +stem from State's ingrained practices and +corridor channels, not necessarily regulations. +Mandates all along this spectrum are strong +enough to dictate when, and for what, public +diplomacy and public affairs are used as well as when they are left out of the policy process. +The priorities, mandates and principal resources of public diplomacy flow from the +Africa Bureau (AF) and from the Office of the Undersecretary for Public Diplomacy and Public +Affairs (R). At posts, public affairs sections adhere to Mission priorities first and foremost. +Public diplomacy programs and tools are most often run out of the bureau of Educational and +Cultural Exchanges (ECA) or International Information Programs (IIP). The AF Bureau's and +Missions' public diplomacy and public affairs staff must collegially tap into, and show results +for, other bureaus and occasionally agencies. +The Africa Bureau has five policy pillars and AF public diplomacy and public affairs +further and support all five — strengthen democratic institutions; mitigate and prevent conflict; +foster broad-based economic growth; enhance access to education and combat disease, and +combat transnational threats — as well as global themes such as climate change, food security, +and outreach to Muslim populations in particular. +In addition, R's ""Strategic Imperatives for 21st Century Public Diplomacy"" certainly will +guide public diplomacy in Africa: shape the narrative: develop proactive outreach strategies to +inform, inspire, and persuade; expand and strengthen people-to-people relationships to build +mutual trust and respect; better inform policy-making; ensure foreign policy is informed up front +by an understanding of attitudes and opinions of foreign publics; combat violent extremism: +counter violent extremist voices, discredit and delegitimize violent extremism and empower +credible local voices; and deploy resources in line with current priorities - strengthen structures +and processes to ensure coordinated and effective public diplomacy +III. MAKING BETTER POLICY AND MORE OF A PUBLIC IMPACT +Over the past four months AF/PDPA has defined the philosophy, role, audiences, +mission, and core functions of AF/PDPA. This organizational development plan was developed +by AF/PDPA through a consultative and collaborative process. It does not seek to catalogue the +full panoply of activities that the office engages in every day. It seeks to provide a strategic +direction for the many daily activities — from responding to taskers, to recruiting officers for field +positions, to producing daily press clips, to informing PAOs about Washington's latest policy +initiative — so that the each AF/PDPA staff member can make smart decisions about how to +increase the value, impact and results of his/her work.

The latter works so well that PAOs and +AF office directors repeatedly told the contractor ""whatever you do, don't change it."" +Throughout this plan is an ongoing commitment by AF/PDPA personnel to a new +approach to their work. The commitment is to increased initiative, more strategic thinking, +more frequent engagement in policy-making processes, and a fuller understanding by every +staff member of how his/her work contributes to the larger whole. This may sound obvious, +but it is not a minor shift and is a day-to-day challenge in the State culture that tasks down, +values procedure over creativity, and expects quick responses and turn-around from lower levels +but does not place priority on keeping them informed. +The new Public Diplomacy Deputy Assistant Secretary (PD-DAS) will play a major +leadership role in implementing this plan. AF/PDPA's leadership team (Director, Deputy, +PACO, Chief of Public Affairs, and Cultural Coordinator) is responsible for the pace of +implementation, but actually achieving the goals will require all staff members to reshape their +approach to their own jobs. It is generally not a matter of just doing more. Most AF/PDPA +personnel are already juggling large work loads. It is a matter of working more strategically, in +some cases more in depth, and focusing more on impact and purpose. +AF/PDPA GOALS - 2010-2014 +I. AF/PDPA is valued for public diplomacy leadership in Africa and for public affairs +leadership on Africa policy in the U.S. +II. Policy-making on Africa is informed by an understanding of public perspectives. +State depends on AF/PDPA for expertise and advice on understanding, informing, +engaging, and persuading publics in Africa and informing the U.S. public. +III. The conduct of public diplomacy in Africa and AF's public affairs in the U.S. is +strengthened and enhanced via the achievement of specific, measurable public +diplomacy and public affairs program objectives. +IV. AF attracts and retains a diverse, high-caliber public diplomacy and public affairs +workforce. +V. Resources to engage publics in Africa and in America are sufficient and deployed in +line with policy priorities. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +During this organizational development process AF/PDPA staff and stakeholders +proposed many more thoughtful ideas and specific strategies, steps, and actions to achieve these +five goals than there are time or resources available. Seven cross-cutting strategies arose out of +the list of over a hundred specific actions that the contractor compiled from interviews and +discussions with the field and in Washington. +STRATEGIES +A. Address location and restructure to close access and communications gaps with AF, +better support and guide the field, facilitate AF engagement with target domestic +audiences, support expanding PD portfolios, make positions more desirable, and +facilitate AF inter-office teamwork. +B. Engage fully in AF policy-making processes, especially the paper process. +C. Raise visibility of PD and PA work in AF. +D. Build and retain expertise in the field and in AF/PDPA. +E. Increase AF/PDPA networking and coalition building. +F. Empower the field and AF/PDPA +G. Align resources with policy priorities and stretch resources via partnerships with +other USG, private, and non-profit organizations to maximize resource coordination on +shared policy and program goals. +In early May 2010, as a result of this organizational development process, Assistant +Secretary Carson approved major physical restructuring of AF/PDPA. AF/PDPA will embed PD +desk officers in the geographic offices using a model similar to that currently used by WHA and +EUR. As soon as space is available, PD desks will be relocated to the corresponding AF +geographic office (AF/C, AF/W, AF/E and AF/S) in the Harry S. Truman main State building +(HST). The PD desk officers will be an integral part of the geographic offices' day-to-day work +as public diplomacy experts. These officers will be rated by AF/PDPA and reviewed by the +geographic office director, serving as members of both office teams. +Embedding will help close the existing chasm between AF/PDPA and the rest of the +bureau, but it is far from a perfect solution and certainly not a cure-all. Shifting of physical +office space will jumpstart changes to the ""out of sight, out of mind"" mentality which has +affected AF/PDPA for many years. It will directly address the OIG reports concerns that ""the +current situation, with AF/PDPA offices across the street from the main Department building, +exacerbates the alienation between AF and AF/PDPA."" It will open other gaps. The distance +between the AF/PDPA ""home office"" in SA-3 and the AF geographic offices on the fourth and +fifth floors of HST will make supervision of and communication with the desks more +challenging than EUR's or WHA's experience. Included in this plan are actions to mitigate +anticipated new gaps and to address proactively potential thorny areas. The AF/PDPA leadership +UNCLASSIFIED AF/PDPA Strategic Plan 2010-2014 June 18, 2010 11 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +team has discussed potential pitfalls. They are ready to take on the added management +challenges that embedding creates. +In addition, on AF/PDPA's recommendation, Assistant Secretary Carson asked AF/EX to +conduct in FY 2010 a zero-based reconsideration of physical space based on office function, +size, and resources available. This was a result of AF/PDPA's organizational development +analysis that pointed to the need to improve coordination between the domestic outreach side of +AF/PDPA and other AF offices' cultivation and engagement of domestic audiences (such as +NGO, Diaspora, and other constituency briefings) as well as between the public diplomacy +program side of AF/PDPA and the work of other AF offices on engaging priority public +audiences in Africa (such as women, civil society, entrepreneurs, and Muslim communities). It +is expected that consultation and collaboration among the various public engagement activities of +the bureau's functional offices — RSA, EPS, and PDPA — will be enhanced by locating AF's +regional government-to-people portfolios in closer proximity, and that as a result AF/PDPA will +be more engaged in the Bureau's policy-making processes. +As physical reorganization is not sufficient on its own to fully integrate AF/PDPA, this +plan contains the steps AF/PDPA has agreed to take to redefine responsibilities, portfolios and +expectations to enable the PD desks to build expertise in their geographic portfolios, the PA +section to build expertise in the U.S.-based African diaspora and in new and social media, and +the PACO, cultural coordinator, deputy and office director to continue to focus region-wide with +improved administrative support. This plan includes a commitment from the new Public +Diplomacy Deputy Assistant Secretary as to the role he will play in encouraging the rest of the +Africa Bureau to improve its attitude toward, and raise its expectations of, AF/PDPA. Ensuring +foreign policy-making is informed by an understanding of public perspectives is a two-way +street. AF's geographic and functional offices must collaborate more fully with AF/PDPA. +Early in FY2011, Diplomacy 3.0 will provide two new country affairs (desk) officer +positions enabling the West Africa portfolio of 16 posts to be split into two. The program and +project specialist position will be reconfigured to support additional programs. The media officer +position will be refocused with an emphasis on social/online media and additional diaspora +outreach. AF/PDPA seeks to add two new positions in FY 2013 — a deputy planning and +coordinating officer and another media officer. All of AF/PDPA will work to better inform +policy-making. +Better input into policy also means doing a better job of reporting on public sentiment +and on the media, academic and civil society perspectives and environments in country as well as +capturing the impact and results of public diplomacy activities. AF has asked officers in the field +to do more strategic reporting. This is also expected of officers at public affairs sections. In +Washington, AF/PDPA officers will do more to inform themselves and policymakers by reading +INR, Open Source, and non-governmental public opinion polls and analysis as well as +networking with the academic communities that study Africa. In order to improve reporting on +the results of public diplomacy programs, assessment and reporting tools must be improved. +Measuring the impact of public diplomacy programming is expensive and, if not done using +longitudinal methods, imprecise. AF/PDPA is committed to working with R to improve +UNCLASSIFIED AF/PDPA Strategic Plan 2010-2014 June 18, 2010 12 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +reporting and measurement of public diplomacy results and to setting expectations for this office +and the field to move beyond counting activities to counting impact. +Carrying out the core function of oversight of, and support for, the field means more than +emails and phone calls to posts from Washington (although the value of the weekly phone call +between PD desk and PAO should not be underestimated). Africa does not have many senior +PAO positions. Thirty-one out of 44 AF PAO positions are graded for mid- or entry-level +officers (FS-02 and below). Many PAOs are the sole public diplomacy officer at post and on +their first PAO tour. As AF/PDPA desk officers have not always had field PD experience, this +plan contains actions to build expertise in Washington and the field including adding more +regional and Washington training opportunities, coaching/mentoring less-experienced PAOs by +more experienced officers, manuals and written guides, as well as academic and scientific +fellows who bring specialized expertise into AF/PDPA. These will help the field be more +effective, but will not solve the need for additional LES and FSO positions in public affairs +sections across the continent. +While AF/PDPA can and must recruit and build public diplomacy officers for service in +Africa, there are few, very limited actions the office can take on its own that will make an +appreciable difference in retaining good public diplomacy officers at posts. This is not just a +problem for public diplomacy in Africa. The Department's assignments priority on Iraq, +Afghanistan and Pakistan, including the promise of ""linked assignments"" and the financial +incentives that come with service in these countries has had the unintended effect of creating a +disincentive to serving in Africa. As many posts in Africa are two year tours, the already +systematic every-other-year assignment gaps are multiplied by curtailments of officers to serve +in those countries the Department considers a higher priority. +Several of the specific actions in this plan are designed to raise the visibility of AF public +diplomacy and public affairs work in order to garner a regular seat at the policy table, better +represent PAOs in Washington, attract more FSO bidders, and increase interagency and public- +private networking. Coalition building and public-private partnerships are a critical part of +stretching public diplomacy and public affairs resources. +Separating AF/PDPA by embedding and taking on more work — new audiences, +partners, and drafting and reporting responsibilities — will mean working more time, working +more efficiently, or letting go of some duties. Some actions in this plan (such as restructuring +one of AF/PDPAs most highly visible products - the morning clips) will evaluate whether the +time it takes to perform a task can be reduced. +UNCLASSIFIED AF/PDPA Strategic Plan 2010-2014 June 18, 2010 13 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +IV.

Bryson and his book Strategic Planning for Public and Nonprofit Organizations, 3rd +edition (John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2004). Purpose trumps everything and the purpose must +ultimately be to create public value. +This structured process included four phases: +A) The first phase was an assessment of the AF/PDPA office (weeks 1-8). +B) Phase two was the articulation of a common vision for what AF/PDPA's strategic role, +function and results should be within the Bureau of African Affairs (Weeks 9-11). +C) The development and refinement of strategies to get from point A to point B as well as +identifying performance measurements was phase three (Weeks 11-16) followed by the +contractor writing up the plan (weeks 17-18). Phase four is then the actual +implementation of these strategies (Week 16+). +A quietly, deliberately, disruptive process, inserting the contractor into the daily rhythms of +the office including participation in routine meetings is designed to elicit strategic thinking +during AF/PDPA's daily work. AF/PDPA staff has not hesitated to implement best practices as +they arise. +The most important techniques utilized were individual thinking and group discussion. +As the guide in this process, during the first phase the contractor is conducting on and off-site +interviews of stakeholders within the Department of State in Washington D.C., in Kampala, +Uganda during an FSI strategic planning course for Africa, and by phone to PAOs across Africa. +In addition to compiling the results of the interviews, as appropriate, the contractor also +gathered information about trends, challenges and opportunities in Africa, reviewing pertinent +internal and external documents; meeting weekly with the AF/PDPA Office Director and Deputy +Director to review progress, share findings and consult on next steps; meeting weekly with a core +group of AF/PDPA personnel who volunteered to form an internal, collaborative Organizational +Development Team to review information gathered by the consultant and hash out ideas and +concepts, and reviewing the substance of this Phase 1 report and its findings with the AF/PDPA +office and individuals affected by this report. +The contractor assembled all materials from the questionnaires to the worksheets for +analysis. The contractor has conducted and compiled all interviews. Fifty-three people were +interviewed individually or in pairs. +During this first phase, ""why"" has been the most important question. For example: Why do +you do X? Why does it matter? Why A and not B? Followed by ""for whom?"" (primary +audience) and ""what is the value added of that action/effort/paper?"" +UNCLASSIFIED AF/PDPA Strategic Plan 2010-2014 June 18, 2010 34 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +STAKEHOLDER INDIVIDUAL INTERVIEWS +Interview +Date Name Office 11 +19-Jan Bruce Wharton AF/PDPA 1 +19-Jan Ed Kemp AF/PDPA +20-Jan Lynn Roche AF/PDPA +20-Jan Bill Strassberger AF/PDPA +20-Jan Lydia Ellison AF/PDPA +20-Jan Lynn Allison AF/PDPA +21-Jan Patricia Ehrnman AF/PDPA +21-Jan Terri Rookard AF/PDPA +21-Jan Karen Coates AF/PDPA +21-Jan Tijen Aybar AF/PDPA +21-Jan Molly Sanchez Crowe AF/PDPA +22-Jan Russell Brooks AF/PDPA +22-Jan Jon Tollefson AF/PDPA +22-Jan Chris McShane AF/PDPA +25-Jan Nicole Peacock AF/PDPA +27-Jan Meg Keeton AF/EX +27-Jan Louis Mazel AF/RSA +28-Jan Tony Newton AF/EPS +29-Jan Siria Lopez AF/C +29-Jan Geeta Pasi AF/E +29-Jan Sue Brown AF/S +29-Jan Mary Beth Leonard AF/W +1-Feb Eric SiIla AF-FO +3-Feb Rhonda Shore S/CT +3-Feb Mark Zimmer PAO Somalia +4-Feb Donna Winton ARS +4-Feb Susan Povenmire OES +8-Feb Peter Claussen PAO Abuja +9-Feb Sara Devlin PD/Econ/Pol Maseru +10-Feb Mary Scholl PAO Accra +10-Feb Solomon Atayi PAO Ndjamena +11-Feb Priscilla Hernandez PAO Lusaka +11-Feb Edwina Sagitto PAO Kigali +12-Feb Susan Domowitz IIP +17-Feb Nick Von Mertens AF/PDPA +17-Feb Alyson Grunder PAO Addis +18-Feb Richard Johannsen PAO Yaounde +18-Feb Carl Chan & Gerald McLoughlin Advisory Commission on PD +19-Feb Andrew Cedar & Betsy Whitaker R/PPR +UNCLASSIFIED AF/PDPA Strategic Plan 2010-2014 June 18, 2010 35 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +23-Feb John Haynes PAO Nairobi +24-Feb Dennis Gombert INR/OPN +25-Feb Paul Hinshaw FPC +26-Feb Carol Kahn R/GSEC +1-Mar Kelvin Kiyingi Info Specialist - Kampala +Cultural Affairs Specialist - +2-Mar Dorothy Ngalombi Kampala +2-Mar Regina Addo PAO Secretary - Accra +2-Mar Thais Ruboneka Assistant IRC - Kigali +3-Mar Joann Lockhart PAO Kampala +3-Mar Brigitte Pressler PD Training Manager - Vienna +3-Mar Rogers Cidosa Interpreter - Dar es Salaam +4-Mar Charles Mugabo Public Affairs Specialist - Kigali +4-Mar John Dunne DPAO Kampala +4-Mar Geraldine Seruyange IRC Assistant - Kampala +5-Mar Roger Lyners Info Specialist - Windhoek +Annex III +AF/PDPA STAFFING +AF/PDPA's domestic public affairs side has four dedicated positions to handle media, +press guidance, statements, and outreach to the American public and the African diaspora in the +United States. The public diplomacy side has seven positions in Washington and two for +Americans at African Regional Services (ARS) in Paris. (ARS Paris provides programming +tools and support to all African posts with an emphasis on Francophone countries and engages +the sizeable Paris-based African media and diaspora communities.) Six people have portfolios +that include both sides of the office: the office director, deputy director, administrative officer, +program and project specialist, and OMS. +There are 48 posts in Africa, 39 of which have Public Affairs Sections headed by an +American Public Affairs Officer (PAO). By mid-2011 this will be up to 46. About half the +public affairs sections are single-officer sections, often an officer's first PD tour. +Other State bureaus have regional support specialists in public affairs sections in Africa +including information resource officers, regional English language officers, and regional +Information Resource Officers. In Kampala, an exemplary case, the PAO has opened the door to +communications specialists from PEPFAR and other USG to sit in the Public Affairs Section. At +other posts DoD MIST teams sit in the Mission's public affairs section. +UNCLASSIFIED AF/PDPA Strategic Plan 2010-2014 June 18, 2010 36 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770301 Date: 08/31/2015 +Annex IV +AF/PDPA Core Functions: +1.

Over the past few months AF/PDPA has defined the +philosophy, role, mission, audiences, core functions, and value added of public diplomacy and +public affairs in the Africa Bureau and set goals and strategies for the AF/PDPA office to excel. +The Department of State's expertise on public diplomacy programs and activities in +Africa, on the regional African public and media context, and on the Department's engagement +with the media and American audiences on African issues should reside in AF/PDPA. +The mission of Africa Bureau (AF) public diplomacy and public affairs is to support the +achievement of U.S. foreign policy goals and objectives, advance national interests, and enhance +national security by understanding, engaging, informing and influencing the people of Africa and +informing the people of the United States of America in order to create an enabling environment +and strong relationships for a healthy, mutually-beneficial U.S.-African partnership. +This four-year organizational development plan lays down specific goals, strategies and +actions/changes that will facilitate the highest level of performance of the office's core functions, +address the office's performance challenges, and take advantage of opportunities. Throughout +this plan is an ongoing commitment by AF/PDPA personnel to a new approach to their work. +The commitment is to increased initiative, more strategic thinking, more frequent and earlier +engagement in policy-making processes, and a fuller understanding by every staff member of +how his/her work contributes to the larger whole. Over the course of the next few months, the +approach of each AF/PDPA staff member will change as will a number of roles and portfolios. +This plan assumes that the rest of the AF Bureau not only will be receptive to these changes but +also will pro-actively seek AF/PDPA expertise and collaboration as appropriate. +The most visible outcome of this organizational development process will be the physical +reorganization in the Africa Bureau. As soon as space is available, AF/PDPA will embed public +diplomacy desk officers in the AF geographic offices. In order to make space available and to +increase coordination among the bureau's functional offices, all of which do some engaging of +civil society and private-sector audiences in the United States and in Africa, Assistant Secretary +Carson has asked the bureau's executive office to conduct a full-bureau analysis of office space +based on function, size and resource available. This analysis +will inform the ultimate decisions as to who sits where. +However, the most significant outcome of this +process will not be the shuffling of office space, but the +results. The current AF/PDPA team is constantly short- +staffed but at its core is an innovative, talented team of Civil +and Foreign Service experts in engaging publics and the +media and building long-term relationships for the United +UNCLASSIFIED June 18, 2010 AF/PDPA 2010-2014 Organizational Development Plan 1 +""The U.S. must recognize the +necessity of orchestrating +networks of public, private and +civic actors to address global +problems"" +-- Anne-Marie Slaughter +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770302 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770302 Date: 08/31/2015 +States. With added expertise, further integration with the rest of the Bureau and a 21' century +focus on networking, AF/PDPA will produce results: more effective public diplomacy in Africa +and public affairs in the United States and better informed policy-making in Washington. +AF/PDPA is adopting five major goals and will use seven cross-cutting strategies to +achieve the goals by taking dozens of specific steps and actions. +AF/PDPA Goals - By 2014: +I. AF/PDPA is valued for public diplomacy leadership in Africa and for public affairs +leadership on Africa policy in the U.S. +II. Policy-making on Africa is informed by an understanding of public perspectives. State +depends on AF/PDPA for expertise and advice on understanding, informing, engaging, +and persuading publics in Africa and informing the U.S. public. +III. The conduct of public diplomacy in Africa and AF's public affairs in the U.S. is +strengthened and enhanced via the achievement of specific, measurable public diplomacy +and public affairs program objectives. +IV. AF attracts and retains a diverse, high-caliber public diplomacy and public affairs +workforce. +V. Resources to engage publics in Africa and in America are sufficient and deployed in line +with policy priorities. +Strategies +A. Address location and restructure to close access and communications gaps with AF, +better support and guide the field, facilitate AF engagement with target domestic +audiences, support expanding PD portfolios, make positions more desirable, and facilitate +AF inter-office teamwork. +B. Engage fully in AF policy-making processes, 'especially the paper process. +C. Raise visibility of PD and PA work in AF. +D. Build and retain expertise in the field and in AF/PDPA. +E. Increase AF/PDPA networking and coalition building. +F. Empower the field and AF/PDPA +G.

David is the heir, +the son, ""Our Boy,"" as Anji Hunter describes him to me, playing a version of the Tony role. +Shaun and David met alone for an hour and a half late last night to discuss the whole situation. +David is well aware of Peter's perversity, that Peter has been plotting to usurp his position as +foreign secretary, that Peter seeks to direct his campaign as leader, that Peter wishes to be the +arbiter and controlling figure in a government under David. At this point, David does not want +Peter to run his campaign but involved. Does Peter know this? No. David is wary of a deal with +the Lib-Dems and understands his perilous position in the event he were to become leader as the +second unelected PM in a row. Upon reflection, it may be that a Labour-Lib-Dem alliance would +not be the harbinger of a grand progressive coalition, but an illusion under these circumstances. +If an arrangement were to be made the government would be extraordinarily unstable. Because it +would be subject to the demands of every bit player, the government would have the potential of +collapsing over every issue large or small. It could not last long. Under the stress, the result +might be that in an inevitable election to be held six to eighteen months (at the outside) from +now, the Conservatives would be posed to gain the majority just beyond their grasp. Shaun +advised David to work things out with his brother Ed, trying to persuade him not to compete +against him. If Ed runs for leader against David, Ed Balls, Gordon's heir in the same sense that +David is Tony's, might get through, which would put Labour back at square one, bearing the +burden of Gordon again. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770313 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770313 Date: 08/31/2015 +Meanwhile, Peter negotiates with the LD team, a meeting that has broken up by this afternoon. +Meanwhile, the Scottish National Party, which two days ago was eager to lead the way to a +coalition with Labour, the LDs, and other parties, has announced it has dropped out of any +arrangment, which also means the Welsh national party, its partner, has dropped out.

The result will be unclear. It will not be clear, +even perhaps by Friday afternoon. Today, the combined polls show Cameron and the +Conservatives ahead but not winning an outright majority. The latest Guardian poll, out +tomorrow, shown me by Alan Rusbridger today, has the Tories falling short of a majority of +seats. Even if Cameron were to win an outright majority, Brown and Labour will attempt to +make a deal with Clegg and the Liberal Democrats. Brown remains as Prime Minister unless the +Tories win outright, which take a long time to determine. Labour and the Lib-Dems will almost +certainly gain about 60 percent of the vote, more or less. Brown will reach out to Clegg to stay in +power. The deal will be that Brown will approve a referendum on proportional representation +giving the LDs much greater representationin future elections. That will spell the end forever of +the Tories ever coming to power. The Tories see the election in apocalyptic terms—and they are +not wrong. Brown's weakness heralds the sort of grand progressive coalition/alliance that Tony +imagined but was never able to attempt between Labour and the LDs. Brown offering the +referendum would be the first step toward that. In the case of the Tories falling short of an +outright majority in seats, they will respond as though Brown is acting illegitimately, which he +would not be by remaining as PM and dealing with Clegg. Informed people are already talking +of what might begin to unfold on Friday as ""Florida."" The Tories, backed by the Murdoch press, +will attempt to push Labour aside by force majeure—something that will not succeed under those +circumstances. The Murdochs are almost literally going crazy. James Murdoch and hiw wife +stormed into the offices of The Independent, not a Murdoch paper, when the paper endorsed the +LDs and confronted the publisher, screaming in the middle of the newsroom. Murdoch would be +a big, big loser if Cameron loses. Another possibile outcome is that the Conservatives come up +just short and attempt their own deal with the DUP to cover the gap in seats. Shaun is on to this +potential, has been talking to Peter Robinson. +No matter what, keep your powder dry until the result is crystal clear.

So how +come we haven't? +BY VALERIE M. HUDSON, PATRICIA LEIDL I MAY 10, 2010 +One day in November 2009, in Helmand province's capital of Lashkar Gah, a group of Afghan widows and divorcees met +with Patricia, who had been commissioned to write a series of success stories for the U.S. Agency for International +Development (USAID). All the women were in their 20s, 30s, and 40s but looked to be in their 60s. Until very recently, +none of them could work because they possessed no marketable skills, could neither read nor write, and were at risk of +being killed if they left their homes. A number of women said that, before the program -- which focused on tailoring and +basic literacy -- their children used to weep at night from hunger. +COMMENTS (22) SHARE: +Twitter +Reddit +Buzz +EMore... +As Patricia prepared to leave, the women fluttered around her like moths, touching her sleeves and speaking all at once. +'What are they saying?"" Pat asked the young Pashto-speaking interpreter. ""They are telling you to go back to your +country and to ask your people not to abandon them. The women of Afghanistan don't want you to leave. They will quite +literally die if the Taliban return,"" she said. +In a recent question-and-answer period at one of our universities, Brigham Young, a student asked Gen. David Petraeus +whether anyone thought to ask the women of Afghanistan how they felt about U.S. hopes to incorporate ""reformed"" +Taliban into governance structures as the Americans leave. +Carefully avoiding the word ""women,"" the general assured the questioning student that only ""moderate"" Taliban would be +eligible for such rehabilitation. Left unaddressed was the definition of ""moderate,"" which clearly depends on where you sit: +If you sit in a burqa, there is no such thing as a ""moderate"" Taliban. +Petraeus might find it easy now to sidestep the question of what will happen to Afghanistan's women once the ""moderate"" +Taliban come back, but it's likely to haunt him for a long time. Without the security of women there is no security -- and +until we've done more to protect it, we have a moral and practical obligation to stay in Afghanistan. +In 2001, George W. Bush's administration interpreted the first post-invasion photos of Afghan girls heading to school and +of Afghan women unveiling their faces as tangible evidence that conditions were improving in that benighted land. A few +months after the invasion, in his 2002 State of the Union address, Bush announced, ""The last time we met in this +chamber, the mothers and daughters of Afghanistan were captives in their own homes, forbidden from working or going to +school. Today women are free and are part of Afghanistan's new government."" +The Americans strong-armed a handful of women into the loya jirga that then drafted the Afghan Constitution. They +strong-armed a quota for women in the Afghan national legislature -- something that even American women are not +treated to. U.S. troops built schools for girls and pushed for women to be included in the local shuras, and USAID ripped a +page from Greg Mortenson's Three Cups of Tea and facilitated new training and educational opportunities for women. +But the current administration, despite its female secretary of State and its new Office of Global Women's Issues, appears +to be ditching the women of Afghanistan like a blind date gone bad. You have to go back 10 months to find any sustained +rhetoric from President Barack Obama about the importance of assuring the security of women in Afghanistan. Since +then, and especially since last year's Afghan election, those fine words from a sitting president have all but disappeared. +Many of the fine actions are gone, too. Push local shuras into including women in 2002? Yes. Push local shuras into +including women in 2010? Forget it. +It's not difficult to understand why. Afghanistan is in crisis. The cynical policies that characterized the early to mid-stages +of the occupation have come home to roost. President Hamid Karzai and his rogue's gallery of kleptocrats, human rights +abusers, and drug lords are hanging onto power even as Karzai declares open season on the United Nations by accusing +senior bureaucrats of organizing the widespread voter fraud that consolidated his own hold on power. +In the meantime, women have taken a back seat to realpolitik and the exigencies of a coalition exit strategy. But their +suffering is real, as Afghanistan's poverty and chaos affect women possibly most of all. Matemal mortality in Afghanistan +still makes the world's top three list, nine years after the U.S. invasion, resulting in a life expectancy for women of 46. In +the countryside, Taliban zealots spray acid into girls' faces for going to school -- and only 27 percent of them do so in the +first place. According to a recent survey by the U.N. Development Fund for Women, 87 percent of Afghan women report +being beaten on a regular basis. +In July of last year, the U.N. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) issued a report that represents the most stinging +official condemnation of the Karzai administration's abysmal track record on women to date. The report concluded, ""The +current reality is that ... women are denied their most fundamental human rights and risk further violence in the course of +seeking justice for crimes perpetrated against them."" Last year Karzai pardoned well-connected political thugs who -- +before witnesses -- gang-raped a woman with a bayonet. Her husband, who had battled for redress, was assassinated +soon thereafter. Women who dare to speak out against the widespread trampling of their rights face almost certain death +while their murderers face 100 percent impunity. +For the warlords and mujahideen that make up the upper echelons of the Karzai government, the issue of gender equality +was always an unwanted appendage to U.S. involvement -- but one that could easily be dispensed with through the +deployment of flowery speeches and the token appointment of a lone female minister to the Ministry of Women's Affairs. +Indeed, just before his recent ""election,"" Karzai felt secure enough to sign into law a series of repressive measures +designed to repeal what minimal gains women have made since the Taliban ouster. +Although eventually forced to back down over legislation that allows Shiite husbands to rape their wives, Karzai +successfully signed into law other legislation that denies or severely limits women's rights to inherit, divorce, or have +guardianship of their own children. The Shiite Personal Status Law also legalizes forced marriage and the rape of minors. +It allows men to exert almost total control over female relatives and offers them the power to prohibit women's access to +work, education, and health care by denying them the right to leave their homes except for ""legitimate"" purposes. Even +Karzai's own wife -- a doctor whose skills are desperately needed -- is strictly sequestered. And if this sounds bad, just +wait until the Americans leave. +This is not just about women. Gender inequality not only affects girls and women, but boys and men. In Afghanistan, +because women are rarely able to leave the house, very young boys are often forced to carry an unwarranted amount of +financial responsibility, something that limits their prospects as well. +Nor is it even just about Afghanistan. As Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in March, ""The subjugation of women is a +threat to the national security of the United States."" On a geopolitical level, Valerie's research has found that states with +higher levels of violence against women are also less peaceful internationally. Indeed, violence against women is a better +predictor of bellicosity than level of democracy, level of wealth, or presence of Islamic civilization. In a 2010 study, Valerie, +along with Brad Thayer, also found high levels of gender inequality to be a strong aggravating factor in the development of +Islamic suicide terrorism. +So, given the desperate need of Afghanistan's women and the serious consequences worldwide, why aren't we doing +more to help? One reason is the fallacious notion, common among coalition members, that Afghan ""culture"" does not +allow for gender equality and that forcing the issue will undermine Western interests. Pat heard this openly from one +coalition representative, who prefers to remain anonymous: 'There is no point in pushing gender equality. It will only +alienate them [Afghans]."" Of course, ""them"" here refers only to men. +But decision-makers forget that culture is not fixed, but is highly mutable and dynamic. More than 30 years ago, Afghan +women were attending universities, teaching, working as doctors, nurses, and professors. Far from being a black hole of +gender apartheid, Afghanistan, though impoverished, was more progressive than many of its Muslim neighbors. +Furthermore, many young Afghans are open to new ways of doing things. In 2009, hundreds of Afghan men and women +bravely stood together in Kabul to protest Karzai's support for a new and oppressive Shiite family law. If Americans +assume that all Afghan men are Neanderthals incapable of sympathizing with the plight of their sisters, they are wrong. +Another, more unmentionable reason may be the chauvinism that permeates Western military culture. U.S. military life, +despite increasing female recruitment and even ""female engagement teams,"" remains a bastion of masculinity, with little +sensitivity toward questions of female rights. For military leadership and recruits alike, immured as they are in an almost +exclusively male world, the complete absence of women from Afghanistan's streets and villages elicited no comment from +the Marines who surrounded Pat, though she as a woman noticed it immediately. +And the ready availability of pornography on U.S. bases, coupled with seamier depictions of life in the West, not only +damages prospects for gender equality but by extension, Western interests. As one young, well-educated 24-year-old +Afghan male pointed out, ""Your culture has no respect for women at all.

All the women were in their 20s, 30s, and 40s but looked to be in their 60s. Until very recently, +none of them could work because they possessed no marketable skills, could neither read nor write, and were at risk of +being killed if they left their homes. A number of women said that, before the program -- which focused on tailoring and +basic literacy -- their children used to weep at night from hunger. +COMMENTS (22) SHARE: +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770370 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770370 Date: 08/31/2015 +Twitter +Reddit +Buzz +EMore... +As Patricia prepared to leave, the women fluttered around her like moths, touching her sleeves and speaking all at once. +'What are they saying?"" Pat asked the young Pashto-speaking interpreter. ""They are telling you to go back to your +country and to ask your people not to abandon them. The women of Afghanistan don't want you to leave. They will quite +literally die if the Taliban return,"" she said. +In a recent question-and-answer period at one of our universities, Brigham Young, a student asked Gen. David Petraeus +whether anyone thought to ask the women of Afghanistan how they felt about U.S. hopes to incorporate ""reformed"" +Taliban into governance structures as the Americans leave. +Carefully avoiding the word ""women,"" the general assured the questioning student that only ""moderate"" Taliban would be +eligible for such rehabilitation. Left unaddressed was the definition of ""moderate,"" which clearly depends on where you sit: +If you sit in a burqa, there is no such thing as a ""moderate"" Taliban. +Petraeus might find it easy now to sidestep the question of what will happen to Afghanistan's women once the ""moderate"" +Taliban come back, but it's likely to haunt him for a long time. Without the security of women there is no security -- and +until we've done more to protect it, we have a moral and practical obligation to stay in Afghanistan. +In 2001, George W. Bush's administration interpreted the first post-invasion photos of Afghan girls heading to school and +of Afghan women unveiling their faces as tangible evidence that conditions were improving in that benighted land. A few +months after the invasion, in his 2002 State of the Union address, Bush announced, ""The last time we met in this +chamber, the mothers and daughters of Afghanistan were captives in their own homes, forbidden from working or going to +school. Today women are free and are part of Afghanistan's new government."" +The Americans strong-armed a handful of women into the loya jirga that then drafted the Afghan Constitution. They +strong-armed a quota for women in the Afghan national legislature -- something that even American women are not +treated to. U.S. troops built schools for girls and pushed for women to be included in the local shuras, and USAID ripped a +page from Greg Mortenson's Three Cups of Tea and facilitated new training and educational opportunities for women. +But the current administration, despite its female secretary of State and its new Office of Global Women's Issues, appears +to be ditching the women of Afghanistan like a blind date gone bad. You have to go back 10 months to find any sustained +rhetoric from President Barack Obama about the importance of assuring the security of women in Afghanistan. Since +then, and especially since last year's Afghan election, those fine words from a sitting president have all but disappeared. +Many of the fine actions are gone, too. Push local shuras into including women in 2002? Yes. Push local shuras into +including women in 2010? Forget it. +It's not difficult to understand why. Afghanistan is in crisis. The cynical policies that characterized the early to mid-stages +of the occupation have come home to roost. President Hamid Karzai and his rogue's gallery of kleptocrats, human rights +abusers, and drug lords are hanging onto power even as Karzai declares open season on the United Nations by accusing +senior bureaucrats of organizing the widespread voter fraud that consolidated his own hold on power. +In the meantime, women have taken a back seat to realpolitik and the exigencies of a coalition exit strategy. But their +suffering is real, as Afghanistan's poverty and chaos affect women possibly most of all. Matemal mortality in Afghanistan +still makes the world's top three list, nine years after the U.S. invasion, resulting in a life expectancy for women of 46. In +the countryside, Taliban zealots spray acid into girls' faces for going to school -- and only 27 percent of them do so in the +first place. According to a recent survey by the U.N. Development Fund for Women, 87 percent of Afghan women report +being beaten on a regular basis. +In July of last year, the U.N. Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) issued a report that represents the most stinging +official condemnation of the Karzai administration's abysmal track record on women to date. The report concluded, ""The +current reality is that ... women are denied their most fundamental human rights and risk further violence in the course of +seeking justice for crimes perpetrated against them."" Last year Karzai pardoned well-connected political thugs who -- +before witnesses -- gang-raped a woman with a bayonet. Her husband, who had battled for redress, was assassinated +soon thereafter. Women who dare to speak out against the widespread trampling of their rights face almost certain death +while their murderers face 100 percent impunity. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770370 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770370 Date: 08/31/2015 +For the warlords and mujahideen that make up the upper echelons of the Karzai government, the issue of gender equality +was always an unwanted appendage to U.S. involvement -- but one that could easily be dispensed with through the +deployment of flowery speeches and the token appointment of a lone female minister to the Ministry of Women's Affairs. +Indeed, just before his recent ""election,"" Karzai felt secure enough to sign into law a series of repressive measures +designed to repeal what minimal gains women have made since the Taliban ouster. +Although eventually forced to back down over legislation that allows Shiite husbands to rape their wives, Karzai +successfully signed into law other legislation that denies or severely limits women's rights to inherit, divorce, or have +guardianship of their own children. The Shiite Personal Status Law also legalizes forced marriage and the rape of minors. +It allows men to exert almost total control over female relatives and offers them the power to prohibit women's access to +work, education, and health care by denying them the right to leave their homes except for ""legitimate"" purposes. Even +Karzai's own wife -- a doctor whose skills are desperately needed -- is strictly sequestered. And if this sounds bad, just +wait until the Americans leave. +This is not just about women. Gender inequality not only affects girls and women, but boys and men. In Afghanistan, +because women are rarely able to leave the house, very young boys are often forced to carry an unwarranted amount of +financial responsibility, something that limits their prospects as well. +Nor is it even just about Afghanistan. As Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said in March, ""The subjugation of women is a +threat to the national security of the United States."" On a geopolitical level, Valerie's research has found that states with +higher levels of violence against women are also less peaceful internationally. Indeed, violence against women is a better +predictor of bellicosity than level of democracy, level of wealth, or presence of Islamic civilization. In a 2010 study, Valerie, +along with Brad Thayer, also found high levels of gender inequality to be a strong aggravating factor in the development of +Islamic suicide terrorism. +So, given the desperate need of Afghanistan's women and the serious consequences worldwide, why aren't we doing +more to help? One reason is the fallacious notion, common among coalition members, that Afghan ""culture"" does not +allow for gender equality and that forcing the issue will undermine Western interests. Pat heard this openly from one +coalition representative, who prefers to remain anonymous: 'There is no point in pushing gender equality. It will only +alienate them [Afghans]."" Of course, ""them"" here refers only to men. +But decision-makers forget that culture is not fixed, but is highly mutable and dynamic. More than 30 years ago, Afghan +women were attending universities, teaching, working as doctors, nurses, and professors. Far from being a black hole of +gender apartheid, Afghanistan, though impoverished, was more progressive than many of its Muslim neighbors. +Furthermore, many young Afghans are open to new ways of doing things. In 2009, hundreds of Afghan men and women +bravely stood together in Kabul to protest Karzai's support for a new and oppressive Shiite family law. If Americans +assume that all Afghan men are Neanderthals incapable of sympathizing with the plight of their sisters, they are wrong. +Another, more unmentionable reason may be the chauvinism that permeates Western military culture. U.S. military life, +despite increasing female recruitment and even ""female engagement teams,"" remains a bastion of masculinity, with little +sensitivity toward questions of female rights. For military leadership and recruits alike, immured as they are in an almost +exclusively male world, the complete absence of women from Afghanistan's streets and villages elicited no comment from +the Marines who surrounded Pat, though she as a woman noticed it immediately. +And the ready availability of pornography on U.S. bases, coupled with seamier depictions of life in the West, not only +damages prospects for gender equality but by extension, Western interests. As one young, well-educated 24-year-old +Afghan male pointed out, ""Your culture has no respect for women at all. Look at your pornography and the way you exploit +women in ways that we can't even imagine. Do you call that progress?"" Added another Afghan USAID programmer +working in Gardez, a man in his 50s who is the father of three girls, ""It would be better for the coalition if they could figure +out a way to limit this kind of material."" +We can do better -- much better. +The Obama administration must instill in all military personnel and senior diplomats the necessity of fully protecting +women's rights.

The real danger is that the Obama administration will be so preoccupied with +domestic American politics and its constant demand to look tough when dealing with Iran that it will +inadvertently rescue this cruel but hapless regime from its own ineptitude by providing a convenient scapegoat +for everything that goes wrong in Iran. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770377 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5546,C05770382,SPANTA,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-05-12T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0079/DOC_0C05770382/C05770382.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Spanta,,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Wednesday, May 12, 2010 7:59 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770382,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"I remember what I was going to say earlier — you might check in with Steve Bosworth on the Spanta thing.

Prof. Donna Shalala, who served as the US Secretary +of Health and Human Services for eight years under Clinton and is currently the president of the +University of Miami, was held for two-and-a-half hours at Ben Gurion Airport during which she +underwent a humiliating security debriefing because of her Arab last name — all this despite the fact +that her hosts notified the airport ahead of time that she is a VIP. +The fact that Shalala arrived in Israel as part of an official delegation of the heads of universities +fighting against the academic boycott against the Jewish State also seemed not to help her. +Shalala, 69, was born in the US to Lebanese immigrant parents. She is considered a true friend of +Israel and has visited the country many times in the past. +She recently arrived in Israel as a guest of the American Jewish Congress with the objective of +increasing collaboration among universities in Israel, the US, and the Palestinian Authority. During +their visit, members of the delegation met with President Shimon Peres, Deputy Foreign Minister Danny +Ayalon, and Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770414 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770414 Date: 08/31/2015 +The official visit ended on July 12, but Shalala stayed on for another two days for a private visit. +The AJC claims that it notified the Israel Airports Authority of Shalala's VIP status as is customary +prior to her departure. However, the IAA claims that it has no record on file for Shalala prior to her +arrival. +When Shalala arrived at the airport, she was not recognized as a VIP and was even afforded what +she claims to be ""special"" treatment because of her Arab last name. She claims she was held for two- +and-a-half hours during which she was asked invasive and humiliating personal questions. Despite +the delay, she managed to board the flight to the US. Officials who spoke with her said she was +deeply offended by the treatment she received. +An IAA spokesperson reported in response: ""This incident is unknown to us. We performed a +thorough check. There was no contact made with us or any other body. No unusual events were +registered at Ben Gurion Airport, and we have no idea about this incident, which, from our +perspective, never happened."" +IAA officials said that root of the problem is that the host organizations don't bother accompanying +their guests to the airport. +The incident was raised Wednesday during a discussion convened by Deputy Foreign Ministry +Ayalon to discuss treatment of VIPs at Ben Gurion Airport. During the discussion, it was agreed that a +new protocol will be drafted that will keep incidents to a minimum. +Shalala preferred not to comment on the article. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770414 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5562,C05770416,WOMEN AND RECONCILLIATON,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-08-10T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0091/DOC_0C05770416/C05770416.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,FW: women and reconciliation,,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",SSRAP StaffAssistants,"Tuesday,,August 10, 2010 6:36 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770416,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,FYI,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770416 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART B6 +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Tuesday,,August 10, 2010 6:36 PM +To: +Subject: FW: women and reconciliation +FYI +From: Jackson Farrier, Belinda On Behalf Of SSRAP StaffAssistants +Sent: Tuesday, August 10, 2010 6:29 PM +To: Sullivan, Jacob J +Cc: SSRAP StaffAssistants +Subject: FW: women and reconciliation +Please pass the following message to the Secretary, per Ambassador Holbrooke. +Thank you. +Regards, +Belinda Jackson Farrier +From: Rina Amiri < +To: Holbrooke, Richard; singn, vikram J +Sent: Tue Aug 10 16:29:01 2010 +Subject: women and reconciliation +In light of our discussion re. women and reconciliation, I wanted to alert you to a recent incident that has +generated a great deal of concern among Afghan women. Two days ago, a local Taliban commander executed a +pregnant widow for having an ""illicit affair"" (the man was not punished). While there are varying accounts of +the incident, the authorities have confirmed that she was shot in the head several times after being flogged up to +200 times in Qadis district (which is completely under the control of the Taliban) of Badghis.Government +authorities have condemned the incident, noting that due process was not carried out. +In meetings today, Afghan women leaders, including some who in the past accepted reconciliation as inevitable, +expressed both fear and bitterness over the incident and shared concerns that such brutality against +women would be far more prevalent if reconciliation occurred. They noted frustration about the lack of +transparency in the government's reintegration and reconciliation processes. A number of women questioned +what the government is willing to bargain in order to achieve a peace settlement and the extent to which it is +prepared to roll women's rights back to appease the Taliban. They noted that women's rights are treated as a +nuisance by the government leadership rather than as an important element of the peace process. +Melanne also met with President Karzai and was dismayed when he told her that there weren't any women's +names on the list of potential candidates for the High Peace Council. Stanekzai is said to have come up with a +list of 300 names (FRIC reports that women were on the list) that has been wittled down to about 30 names. +While the list is far from being finalized, President Karzai does not currently appear to be prioritizing women's +inclusion in the body--despite the fact that the APRP commits to it. Afghan women have called for 20% to 30% +inclusion of women in the High Peace Council and the Joint Secretariat.

""It's +been more than eight months since we've had inspectors on the ground in Russia"" who give ""a vital window into +Russia's arsenal."" +> The agreement, which is a priority for President Barack Obama, would replace the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, or +START, that expired in December and left the former Cold War rivals with no way to verify each other's nuclear +weapons. +> Senator John Kerry of Massachusetts, chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee, delayed a vote by the panel to +round up more bipartisan support.

(I've discussed with Shaun.) +Northern Ireland. Cameron has pledged to reduce public sector spending in NI. But the impact of public +sector spending there is not the same as in other parts of the UK because of 40 years of troubles. +Political stability depends upon economic stability. Removing funding specifically threatens community +policing, creating a vacuum that the Real IRA and other men of violence would rush into. Cutting the +public sector would make it difficult to increase private sector investment. Does the new government +understand the US interest in NI and appreciate the fragility of the situation? +Defense and Foreign Policy Cuts. The new government program is to slash the deficit, cutting deeply into +government programs. This really cannot be done without defense and foreign policy reductions. Seek +claficiation on exactly whether and where these cuts be made. Will they affect Afghanistan policy and +over what schedule? How will cuts in the foreign service affect British influence in other areas? +Trident and Nuclear Deterrent. The coalition agreement between the Conservative and Liberal Democrats +allows the LDs to abstain in parliamentary votes on four issues that will apparently let the Tories have +their way: marriage tax allowances; nuclear power; college tuition fees; and Trident and the nuclear +deterrent. During the campaign, the LDs ran on eliminating the Trident and erasing the UK nuclear +deterrent. How will this actually work in practice? +Political Changes. The new government, because the coalition is fundamentally at odds with itself, has +proposed to pass a parliamentary bill that establishes a five year term for a government and furthermore +establishes that a vote of no confidence can only be passed on a 55 percent vote. You might just seek +Hague's view on how this will work. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770442 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5576,C05770446,(AP) DIPLOMATS: IRAN EXPANDS ENRICHMENT FACILITY,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-05-14T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0079/DOC_0C05770446/C05770446.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,(AP) Diplomats: Iran expands enrichment facility,,,SES-O_Shift-II,,F-2014-20439,C05770446,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Abedin, Huma +Friday, May 14, 2010 8:22 AM +Fw: (AP) Diplomats: Iran expands enrichment facility","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770446 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: +Sent: +To: +Subject +Abedin, Huma +Friday, May 14, 2010 8:22 AM +Fw: (AP) Diplomats: Iran expands enrichment facility +From: Shelstad, Jeffrey +To: NEWS-Iran; NEWS-NEA; NEWS-Mahogany; NEWS-I0; NEWS-VCI; NEWS-ISN +Cc: SES-O_Shift-II +Sent: Fri May 14 08:19:36 2010 +Subject: (AP) Diplomats: Iran expands enrichment facility +VIENNA - (AP) Iran has set up new equipment that will allow it to boost its efficiency at enriching uranium at higher +levels, diplomats said May 14.

""America is a thing you can move very easily, move it in the right +direction. They won't get in their way.""

""I said I would, but ... I'm going +to interpret the accords in such a way that would allow me to put an end to this galloping forward to the '67 borders. +How did we do it?

""They didn't want to give +me that letter,"" Netanyahu said, ""so I didn't give them the Hebron agreement [the agreement giving Hebron back to +the Palestinians].

The interim report of the QDDR was +never released and there's concern the final document might not be ready by the stated September deadline. +The PSD, a draft version of whichwas first published on The Cable, is being held up by a continuing and +mounting disagreement between the White House and the State Department over how to divide power over +development between Foggy Bottom and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). +According to administration sources and development-community leaders, the dispute between the National +Security Council and the office of the Secretary of State Hillary Clinton came to a head at a principals' meeting in +late June, when a near-final version of the PSD was discussed. Clinton, our sources report, refused to sign off on th +PSD because she disagreed with that document's determination that USAID should be the lead agency in charge of +individual development missions in the field. +Multiple issues are still in dispute between State and the NSC concerning the reviews, including the role of USAID +Administrator Rajiv Shah and what level of autonomy USAID will be granted in determining its own policies, +budgets, and priorities. Shah has been rebuilding USAID's intellectual capacity, but the aid community fears th; +Clinton intends to consolidate real power inside her office despite her promise to ""elevate"" and ""integrate"" +development as the third pillar of national security alongside diplomacy and defense. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770482 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770482 Date: 08/31/2015 +Many believe that the White House launched a not-so-subtle salvo at Clinton by releasing a statement on +development at the G-8, just days after the contentious principals' meeting, that closely tracks what's known about +the PSD and declaring it as U.S. policy before the internal negotiations with State were completed. +Leading development community-voices are now openly venting their frustration with the delays in the process. +""Eighteen months into the administration, the federal government remains abysmally organized to address Haiti, +Pakistan and other development challenges,"" wrote Nancy Birdsall, the president of the Center for Global +Development, on the organization's website Thursday. ""When it comes to global development, I'd give +President Obama and his top advisors an A for strategic vision and a big fat F for failure to get on with it."" +In an open letter to Clinton, National Security Advisor Jim Jones, and National Economic Council chairman +Larry Summers, Birdsall raised several issues that resonate with development advocates. She called the +Millennium Challenge Corporation ""pathetically underfunded,""lamented that no one seems to know who's in +charge of big initiatives on food security and global health, and complained that USAID still has vacancies for +several senior staff positions. +Birdsall's calls for giving USAID total independence and cabinet-level status aren't likely to be final +recommendations from either the White House or the State Department. +But her overall anxiety about USAID's status is widely shared in the development community. A team of top +development leaders including former USAID administrator Brian Atwood wrote todayto protest the cuts in +the foreign aid budgetthat Congress is calling for. +""We are grateful for the emphasis the President has placed on development and foreign assistance -- a tradition he +continues from President Bush. And we strongly support Secretary Clinton's call to make USAID 'the premier +development agency in the world,' they wrote. ""But this goal will only be achieved when USAID's personnel capacit +is rebuilt and its funding enhanced."" +World Food Prize Laureate Rev. David Beckmann, who co-chairs the Modernizing Foreign Assistance Network +(MFAN), told The Cable, ""The Obama administration is doing smart and creative things to help hungry and poor +people around the world. But they are hung up by organizational confusion, and the president needs to make it cle +that USAID, not the State Department, has lead responsibility for development."" +MFAN even has a running counter on its website tracking the days since President Obama pledged to release hi; +overall development policy. +Adding to the concern is the fact that two of the lead officials who are in charge of the QDDR will be departing the +State Department soon. Deputy Secretary of State Jack Lew has been tapped to become the next director of the +White House's Office of Management and Budget. Policy Planning chief Anne Marie Slaughterhas made it +known that her two-year leave from Princeton will require her to return to New Jersey at the end of the year. +State Department officials assure The Cable that the QDDR will be completed before Lew and Slaughter leave Fogg +Bottom. Nevertheless, the delays are having an own effect of their own, said Birdsall. +""Time is not on our side,"" she told The Cable in an interview.

I know he has a wealth of knowledge and certainly served our country for +many years. +A number of us wrote a letter to you asking for this hearing, and my guess is you might have had hearings any way. +But the reason we wrote the letter -- bipartisan letter -- was to provide Congress and the American people with a +definition of the end state for our civilian operations in Afghanistan, clear objectives for the civilian mission, and a +detailed plan for achieving those objectives, and the very specific, measurable metrics being used to measure progress +towards achieving those objectives. +I have to say, I've been here for an hour and 10 minutes. I have heard nothing -- nothing -- about that. And while I +respect the ambassador, I've heard a lot of process. I've heard a lot about meetings. I have no earthly idea -- no earthly +idea what our objectives are on the civilian front. +And I don't know if you have time to begin doing that right now, but this has so far been an incredible waste of time, +from the standpoint of -- of hearing, though. +And I have tremendous respect for you, but maybe we have the wrong witness. I hope we'll have maybe Secretary +Clinton and Eikenberry, maybe Crocker. I know he's supposed to come. +But could you answer the question that was the purpose of these hearings in the first place? +HOLBROOKE: +I'm sorry. You don't feel that I've told you what our civilian programs are? +CORKER: +You've told me a lot of process. I'd like to know a definition of what our end state is for civilian operations, the very +question we asked when we set this hearing up, is in Afghanistan, clear objectives for the -- for the -- detailed plan for +achieving those. I'd like to hear you talk about that. +I mean, I'm glad we have a lot of interagency folks here, but I'm not hearing anything that talks about where we're +going. +I'd also like to know how the withdrawal date that's been set affects that and how it affects those we're working with +in the country. +HOLBROOKE: +First of all, Senator Corker, I believe I have discussed our civilian programs in very considerable detail within the +constraints of time, but we did prepare a report for this committee earlier this year, which was entered into the record +and which I will be happy to enter into the record again, if you wish. And you can go through every one of the programs. +The reason I brought my colleagues with me was to show that this was a whole-of-government, an unprecedented +effort. +Now, on the specifics, since you want specifics, Afghanistan is an agricultural country.

We have ended poppy eradication, a radical change, because all we were doing by +eradicating poppy seeds, poppy crops, was driving farmers, poor farmers, into the hands of the Taliban. +Fourth, a major program of subnational governance, where we are putting aid directly to the district level. +Fifth, a major effort in specific areas, some of which were alluded to earlier, such as electricity for Kandahar. Senator +Kerry asked earlier about Kandahar. One of the major issues here is to bring electricity to the people as a benefit of the +international presence. +The whole range of activities we have is designed to support the country and to support General Petraeus' counter- +insurgency effort. He and I -- I was his counterpart until two weeks ago when he moved to Kabul. We have worked +intimately in an effort to create a joint civilian-military effort.

I want to be clear on the difference between end state +and exit strategy. +If we -- this is my personal view, senator -- but if we walk away from Afghanistan, again, as we did 21 years ago, the +consequences will be similarly catastrophic, because of the unique strategic position of Afghanistan and the reaction +that would have in Pakistan, China, India and the country to Afghanistan's west, Iran, as well as the larger region that +includes Russia, Saudi Arabia, India, and even extending to Western Europe, which is concerned about terrorism from +that region, just as much as we are. +So, I hope that when we talk about end state, we talk about a sustainable end state which involves continued +American economic and development assistance, and we continue to fulfill our obligations to train the police and the +military. This will not be cheap. But it will be a fraction of the money that is now being authorized and appropriated for +the military campaign. +When we will be able to transition to that is impossible for me or anyone to say. But it won't be on a single day. It will +be a gradual process. And that is what the review in December and the president's decision-making will focus on. +CORKER: +In our foreign policy, generally speaking -- I know we've had some rough times over the last several years -- it's been +something that we've been able to address in a bipartisan way. And I think that the issues that you're dealing with, that +we're dealing with in Afghanistan are incredibly tough. +I still don't -- I haven't understood what the administration was saying in the beginning. That's not to be critical of +them. I just don't understand. I still don't understand. I've met with you and your staff over at the State Department. It's +just incredibly vague to me. +And I think what we are doing, we have partners, which include the Pakistanis and everybody around, that they don't +know what we're doing. They don't know when we're leaving. They think we're leaving shortly, I think. We've just had +colleagues who have come from there. +We've had a -- we've got a president there that's having to play both sides, because he wants to survive, because he +doesn't know what our intentions are. The Pakistanis don't know what our intentions are, I don't think. And they're +making accommodations on both sides. +So, I just have to tell you, I send letters to parents and spouses. And what I feel because of this lack of clarity is that we +are in Afghanistan, because we're in Afghanistan, and that we don't have the will to be successful. And we don't have +the will to leave, because of some of the things you just outlined. +But I just don't hear any clarity. And again, I want to support the administration. I want to support you, because that's +what we need to do as a country, is let the shores (ph) align (ph), let the partisanship. +But I have to tell you, as a person who wants to do that, I still don't understand.

And I have average intelligence, +so I would ask you to, please -- or maybe let's have some witnesses in here that can shed more light or be more specific. +But I don't understand, and I'm very concerned. +And I think we're sending a lot of mixed signals. And I think there's a lot of dissension. Actually, as I listen to you, even +within the administration itself, and that has to end. +And I just ask you, please. You have a lot of experience, help us understand. You haven't done that today. And I would +ask the chairman to please have some witnesses come in and explain to us what the end state is, what we can envision +Afghanistan being whenever this withdrawal does take place, because I still do not understand. +We've changed it. Now it's sort of a degraded country where they have conflict, but it's not out of control. I mean, the +bar continues to change. And I'm just concerned as an individual, and yet I want us to be, if we can, all on the same page +as much as possible. But I think to do that, this has got to be much clearer than has been outlined. +HOLBROOKE: +Senator, I'm sorry that my answers don't fully satisfy you. But I want to be very clear on this, because I understand +your comments and I respect them. +First of all, the core question -- the one you are asked by your constituents, and I'm asked by everybody -- why are we +in Afghanistan? The short, simple answer is 9/11, direct threats to our national security interests, and the fact that while +our enemies against our homeland are on the Pakistani side of the border, this is a single struggle. And we have to +strengthen the Afghan government and let -- and teach it to stand on its own feet over time, so that we can move +forward, while we do other things that fall outside the scope of this hearing, to dismantle, deter and defeat Al Qaida. +Now, if you do not believe that it's a threat to the homeland, then we have an honest difference of opinion. But I think +the Times Square bombing incident shows clearly how dangerous that situation is. +Secondly, on the civilian mission, again, it's in support of a single, civilian-military, counter-insurgency mission. And we +have benchmarks, requested and required by the Congress, and submitted to you. And our overarching goal here is +always the same, to disrupt, dismantle and defeat Al Qaida and prevent its ability to threaten the United States. +And we believe, all of us -- and there is no division on this in the executive branch -- that the situation we face out +there is a direct threat. We believe that before the Times Square situation occurred, and I don't think anything could +have proved it more vividly. +And to achieve this, we have to degrade the Taliban as well, because they are part of the enemy's structure -- a +different part, but an integral part -- that we face. +Now, the Afghan government doesn't yet have the capacity to deal with this on its own. How could they after 30 years +of war? And so, the civilian part of it, the things I've just mentioned to you -- police, government capacity, rule of law, +subnational government, training provincial officials, women's empowerment and a whole series of other major issues -- +are part of our civilian programs. +And we're happy to come back up to your office -- we appreciated your visit to us -- and continue this dialogue. +Our civilian strategy is designed from keeping Al Qaida at bay, and it's designed to help Afghan institutions establish +conditions for stable governance. Our plan has these benchmarks, which have been briefed to you and your colleagues, +and we're happy to discuss them in detail at any time.","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770483 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Verma, Richard R +Sent: Friday, July 16, 2010 2:25 PM +To: +Cc: Sullivan, Jacob J +Subject Re: Corker +And pasted below is the exchange between Corker and Holbrooke: +CORKER: +Mr. Chairman, thank you. +I want to thank the ambassador for coming.

But I think to do that, this has got to be much clearer than has been outlined. +HOLBROOKE: +Senator, I'm sorry that my answers don't fully satisfy you. But I want to be very clear on this, because I understand +your comments and I respect them. +First of all, the core question -- the one you are asked by your constituents, and I'm asked by everybody.-- why are we +in Afghanistan? The short, simple answer is 9/11, direct threats to our national security interests, and the fact that while +our enemies against our homeland are on the Pakistani side of the border, this is a single struggle. And we have to +strengthen the Afghan government and let -- and teach it to stand on its own feet over time, so that we can move +forward, while we do other things that fall outside the scope of this hearing, to dismantle, deter and defeat Al Qaida. +Now, if you do not believe that it's a threat to the homeland, then we have an honest difference of opinion. But I think +the Times Square bombing incident shows clearly how dangerous that situation is. +Secondly, on the civilian mission, again, it's in support of a single, civilian-military, counter-insurgency mission. And we +have benchmarks, requested and required by the Congress, and submitted to you. And our overarching goal here is +always the same, to disrupt, dismantle and defeat Al Qaida and prevent its ability to threaten the United States. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770485 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770485 Date: 08/31/2015 +And we believe, all of us -- and there is no division on this in the executive branch -- that the situation we face out +there is a direct threat. We believe that before the Times Square situation occurred, and I don't think anything could +have proved it more vividly. +And to achieve this, we have to degrade the Taliban as well, because they are part of the enemy's structure -- a +different part, but an integral part -- that we face. +Now, the Afghan government doesn't yet have the capacity to deal with this on its own. How could they after 30 years +of war? And so, the civilian part of it, the things I've just mentioned to you -- police, government capacity, rule of law, +subnational government, training provincial officials, women's empowerment and a whole series of other major issues -- +are part of our civilian programs. +And we're happy to come back up to your office --we appreciated your visit to us -- and continue this dialogue. +Our civilian strategy is designed from keeping Al Qaida at bay, and it's designed to help Afghan institutions establish +conditions for stable governance.

Senator Gillibrand praised Secretary +Clinton for clearing the way for the 23-member team to travel to the United Kingdom to participate in the +Olympics of lacrosse and expressed disappointment in the outcome. +In a letter to Secretary Clinton, Senator Gillibrand wrote, ""Considering the recent situation which prevented the +members of the Iroquois Nationals Lacrosse team and their supporters from traveling to the United Kingdom to +participate in the international lacrosse tournament with the Haudenosaunee passports, and in an effort to +prevent against such disappointment in the future, I therefore request that you work with Tribal governments, in +concert with the Canadian government to the extent that Canada faces a similar situation, to come to an +understanding with the United Kingdom and other foreign governments with the goal of establishing a +document or process that would provide Native American travelers with the same freedom of movement +enjoyed by all U.S. citizens."" +The members of the Iroquois lacrosse team view their tribe as a sovereign nation and, like many Native +Americans throughout New York, strongly and rightfully protect their own national identities and will not +accept a U.S. or Canadian passport. This important recognition coupled with heightened aviation security +standards after September 11th pose a challenge for the Iroquois lacrosse team, leaving them unable to leave +New York and compete in England. To ensure that this does not happen again, Senator Gillibrand encouraged +the U.S. and Canada to work with Native American leaders to develop a universally recognized document for +all tribes and nations in North America that meet international travel standards. +Current standards for travel documents, developed by the International Civil Aviation Organization for Machine +Readable Passports (MRPs), include a machine readable zone on the identity page with the name, passport +number, nationality, date of birth, sex, passport expiration date and personal identity number of the passport holder. +On Wednesday, Secretary Clinton issued a one-time travel waiver and granted approval for them to re-enter the +U.S., but the British government decided not to recognize the waiver and denied the team entry into the United +Kingdom.

Even the Americans say it is in +Pakistan. That's where al Qaeda is. In Afghanistan, it is our insurgency, something +between ourselves that we have to resolve. We have been at war for 30 years; +nothing is more important than ending this. +I know the Taliban better than anyone else. They killed my father, they've killed +thousands. We chased them out after just 1.5 months nine years ago. Yet today, +people are still being killed. +I could say that I was happier with human rights in Afghanistan today than under +the Soviets, or during the civil war, or under the Taliban, but it would be a political • +statement; it would not be from my heart. How can I claim that human rights are in +a better situation here when there are thousands of people being killed? +More on toll of war - he shows us his daily casualty reports for the previous +Wednesday, reads off the totals for Afghan civilians, ISAF troops, Afghan troops, and +""enemy"" troops (and then hastens to add that he disagrees with the term ""enemy."") +What would you do if you see happy occasion in one corner of the room and a +tragedy in the other? Do you go to the happy corner? No of course you go to the +tragedy, and that is my focus/priority. +Malinowski - I respect your argument. Most leaders would tell us to focus on the +positive. I've Never argued with a head of state that human rights situation in his +country was actually better than he thinks. But have to disagree with you - as +horrific as the problems still are, there has been progress in the last ten years in part +because of steps your government has taken- for example, having 37% of girls in +school is not good enough, but it's far better than nightmare that preceded it. +(Karzai - yes, and there is a free press, elections, other progress). So yes, to deal +with the massive suffering you need to pursue peace. But how do pursue peace +without jeopardizing the gains made, including in women's rights? +Karzai - Peace will never jeopardize progress, war will. +Malinowski - Imagine there is a Taliban shadow governor who is responsible for the +destruction of girls' schools and issuing death threats through night letters. Can you +conceive of a deal in which that man is made the real governor of his district or +province, if he simply agrees to respect the Afghan Constitution going forward? +Karzai - Not necessarily. But if he agrees to leave aside his arms, abide by the law, +settle down to a life under the constitution. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770493 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770493 Date: 08/31/2015 +One option is peace, one is a deal.

Knowing he has a bad character, and becomes the district governor, +or that he continues the conflict? +Q to Tom -- what would you do if it was in Nashville, TN and this was the only way to +stop a war claiming so many lives? +Malinowski - I wouldn't make him mayor of Nashville. +Karzai - We have that now in our government. We have people with terrible pasts in +the government. +We had vetting but it went wrong. Look at what happened in parliamentary vetting. +The weaker people who had committed fewer violations were removed; the bigger +ones who committed worse acts were allowed. +Malinowski - we have more than just the two choices you suggested. There is a +middle ground between trying to kill Taliban leaders and making them the leaders +of one's community. +Karzai - OK, what does it look like? +Malinowski - peace and reconciliation, an agreement to stop fighting and killing +each other, perhaps exile for some people, perhaps giving them the chance to run for +political office on a level playing field with everyone else (including vetting). But not +necessarily giving them jobs in which they will have authority over peoples' lives. +There are obviously more complicated issues having to do with transitional justice. +As you know, we opposed the amnesty law (Karzai turns to his aides and says: +""That was the thing the Parliament did, right?""). But even if one supports amnesties, +that's different from allowing Taliban leaders positions of authority. +Karzai - If you have a choice between saving a girl's life and preserving her chance to +go to school, which would you do first? Obviously, saving lives must come first. +Ending this war must come first. +Malinowski - There is undeniable logic to that argument, but in practice we've +found that you have to pursue peace and human rights together. Look at what +happened to the Pakistanis in Swat. They made a hasty deal with the Pakistani +Taliban, allowed them to come in and take power. Women were kept from school +and work; there were awful cases of public whippings and abuse that shocked the +Pakistani public. And before long, war broke out again and the Pakistani army had +to retake what they gave away. They tried to trade rights for peace and got neither. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770493 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770493 Date: 08/31/2015 +Karzai - Don't worry about the Taliban being part of government (suggests long way +off, only talk). And if we get there, Afghan people will have a chance to decide these +questions. Not up to me. +Malinowski - Good that women have been increasingly included in these +discussions, including in the Peace Jirga. Will they be included in any negotiations +with the Taliban? +Karzai - Yes. They will be present in the negotiations. +The overall question is the rights of the Afghan people. We are starving for human +rights in Afghanistan. Most of all, the right to life. +Malinowski - When you say that Taliban members must abide by the Constitution +and Afghan laws to reconcile, can you add a subordinate clause, specifically +mentioning that they must accept the right of women to go to school, work, +participate in politics? Those are all part of Afghan law; stressing them explicitly +would reassure us and send the right signal to the Taliban. +Karzai: Turns to his aides: Don't we already say that? They answer ""yes."" We do, +we have; it's in the declaration of the peace jirga [note: it is not]. +MILITIAS +Karzai: Afghans don't want militias; it's a disaster for this country; we've made this +very clear.

They also expressed grave concern at the series of murders, arrests and assassination attempts +in the run-up to Rwanda's presidential election next month. +The statement by a collective of defense lawyers at the Tanzania-based tribunal for Rwanda, known by its acronym ICTR +(sic), was released following the killing of law professor Jwani Mwaikusa earlier this week near his home in Dar es +Salaam, Tanzania. +The head of the association, American lawyer and law professor Peter Erlinder, told VOA Mwaikusa had been very active +at the tribunal. ""Professor Mwaikusa had been successful in preventing a number of cases from being transferred from +the ICTR to Rwanda and he also had recently completed a trial in which he announced he was going to be filing an +appeal,"" he said. +Mwaikusa had said the trials would not be fair if they were held in Rwanda. +Erlinder himself was recently jailed for nearly a month in Rwanda on charges of challenging the government's official +history of what happened during the 1994 genocide, after trying to represent an opposition leader who was also jailed +on genocide denial charges. +The statement calls for an independent investigation of the Mwaikusa murder, as well as guarantees from the United +Nations Security Council to ensure the safety of the tribunal's defense lawyers. +Erlinder also said evidence necessary to defense teams is being withheld at the tribunal, and he called for fully disclosing +evidence of crimes committed in Rwanda in 1994 by both the former government and current leadership. +""We have a situation where the entire defense at the ICTR is finding itself in a situation where it is very hard to do its +work,"" he said. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770507 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770507 Date: 08/31/2015 +The statement by the lawyers said they were afraid Mwaikusa's murder was not isolated. It followed last month's +assassination attempt against a former ally turned opponent of Rwandan President Paul Kagame in South Africa, the +killing of a journalist in Kigali who was investigating the assassination bid, and the near decapitation of an official from +Rwanda's opposition Democratic Green Party, who was found dead near his car earlier this week near the southern +town of Butare. +Rwandan authorities have denied any link between the series of murders and attacks and the upcoming election, saying +those who insinuate a crackdown is taking place are in their words ""frustrated"" politicians. +Mr. Kagame, who led the Uganda-backed ethnic minority Tutsi rebellion that took over Rwanda from its Hutu-led +government after the genocide, was elected in 2003 with more than 95 percent of the vote. He has expressed +confidence he will be re-elected in August. +Rwandan police say they arrested a man in connection with the killing of the opposition leader, saying he was a +businessman connected with the Green Party. +Several suspects have been arrested in the case of the journalist. +But there is growing international pressure on Rwanda's government to clarify the situation. +U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has called for a full investigation into the deaths of the journalist and the +opposition leader. +Meanwhile, Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero recently called off a planned meeting with Mr. +Kagame, after protests by Spanish human rights groups. +In Spain, a case is pending against dozens of current and former Rwandan officers who have been indicted on charges of +genocide and crimes against humanity for alleged reprisal killings during and after the 1994 genocide, in which hundreds +of thousands of people, most of them ethnic Tutsis, were killed. +Spanish law allows its courts to prosecute crimes against humanity even if those crimes took place elsewhere. +Prof. Peter Erlinder +Director, International Humanitarian Law Institute cio Wm.

I have heard Professor +Erlinder's assertions that his efforts (and those of his colleagues) have exposed many previously hidden truths and those +assertions (which include condemnation of the U.N., one of my least favorite organizations) seemed credible to me. +But those merits are, in my opinion, entirely beside the point, as is the question of whether Professor Erlinder was +foolish or brave to return to Rwanda. I respect both Don Quixote and Clarence Darrow. The point is that Professor +Erlinder put himself at risk to ""walk the walk"" of a fundamental principle of any free society — the right to counsel. The +defendants at the Nuremberg trials had counsel. The Israelis accorded Eichmann counsel. +It now appears that Professor Erlinder's detention may turn into a covert execution.

It is an opportunity to ensure we are effectively supporting Afghan government +leadership and ownership +Follow-through and accountability: In his inauguration, Karzai laid out a credible vision; in London, the Afghan +government committed to developing and pursuing specific plans in a variety of areas; at Kabul, we'll be heavily focused +on implementation. This is about mutual accountability for the pledges made and the programs set forth. +July 2011: The president's strategy reflects both urgency and resolve: increased resources and intensity in our efforts to +take the fight to the enemy and to build Afghan capacity to effect a conditions-based transition; and a long-term civilian +commitment to support Afghanistan long into the future. +Clear strategy: Reverse the momentum of the Taliban; build the capacity of Afghan security forces; and as Afghans +develop the capability to stabilize their country, we must draw down our combat presence and make a responsible +transition to Afghan leadership. +Clear desired end-state: An Afghan state that is willing and strong enough to ensure that global terrorists never again +have safe haven within its borders; can withstand internal and external threats; and can continue to make long-term +political and economic progress, all with sustainable levels of international support. +Civ-mil cooperation: Unfortunate to lose General McChrystal, but maintained continuity with General Petraeus and we +have only intensified our civ-mil engagement both in Kabul and Washington. +Reconciliation: Stress that it is Afghan-led.

I knew Pakistan was bad — but this is shocking. 2% +of the population paying taxes??? On par with Sierra Leone in tax collection to GDP ratio. +Pakistan's Elite Pay Few Taxes, Widening Gap +By SABRINA TAVERN ISE +ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Much of Pakistan's capital city looks like a rich Los Angeles suburb. Shiny sport utility vehicles purr down +gated driveways. Elegant multistory homes are tended by servants. Laundry is never hung out to dry. +But behind the opulence lurks a troubling fact. Very few of these households pay income tax. That is mostly because the politicians who +make the rules are also the country's richest citizens, and are skilled at finding ways to exempt themselves. +That would be a problem in any country. But in Pakistan, the lack of a workable tax system feeds something more menacing: a festering +inequality in Pakistani society, where the wealth of its most powerful members is never redistributed or put to use for public good. That +is creating conditions that have helped spread an insurgency that is tormenting the country and complicating American policy in the +region. +It is also a sorry performance for a country that is among the largest recipients of American aid, payments of billions of dollars that prop +up the country's finances and are meant to help its leaders fight the insurgency. +Though the authorities have tried to expand the net in recent years, taxing profits from the stock market and real estate, entire swaths of +the economy, like agriculture, a major moneymaker for the elite, remain untaxed. +""This is a system of the elite, by the elite and for the elite,"" said Riyaz Hussain Naqvi, a retired government official who worked in tax +collection for 38 years. ""It is a skewed system in which the poor man subsidizes the rich man."" +The problem starts at the top. The average worth of Pakistani members of Parliament is $900,000, with its richest member topping $37 +million, according to a December study by the Pakistan Institute of Legislative Development and Transparency in Islamabad. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770521 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770521 Date: 08/31/2015 +While Pakistan's income from taxes last year was the lowest in the country's history, according to Zafar ul-Majeed, a senior official in +the Federal Board of Revenue, the assets of current members of Parliament nearly doubled from those of members of the previous +Parliament, the institute study found. +The country's top opposition leader, Nawaz Sharif, reported that he paid no personal income tax for three years ending in 2007 in +public documents he filed with Pakistan's election commission. A spokesman for Mr. Sharif, an industrialist who is widely believed to be +a millionaire, said he had been in exile and had turned over positions in his companies to relatives. +A month of requests for similar documents for Pakistan's president and prime minister went unanswered by the commission; +representatives for the men said they did not have the figures. +""Taxes are the Achilles' heel of Pakistani politicians,"" said Jahangir Tareen, a businessman and member of Parliament who is trying to +put taxes on the public agenda. He paid $225,534 in income tax in 2009, a figure he made public in Parliament last month. ""If you don't +have income, fine, but then don't go and get into a Land Cruiser."" +The rules say that anyone who earns more than $3,488 a year must pay income tax, but few do. Akbar Zaidi, a Karachi-based political +economist with the Carnegie Endowment, estimates that as many as ro million Pakistanis should be paying income tax, far more than +the 2.5 million who are registered. +Out of more than 170 million Pakistanis, fewer than 2 percent pay income tax, making Pakistan's revenue from taxes among the lowest +in the world, a notch below Sierra Leone's as a ratio of tax to gross domestic product. +Mr. Zaidi blames the United States and its perpetual bailouts of Pakistan for the minuscule tax revenues from rich and poor alike. ""The +Americans should say: 'Enough. Sort it out yourselves. Get your house in order first,' ""he argued. ""But you are cowards. You are afraid +to take that chance."" +Much of the tax avoidance, especially by the wealthy, is legal. Under a 1990s law that has become one of the main tools to legalize +undocumented — or illegally obtained — money made in Pakistan, authorities here are not allowed to question money transferred from +abroad. Businessmen and politicians channel billions of rupees through Dubai back to Pakistan, no questions asked. +""In this country, no one asks, 'How did you get that flat in Mayfair?' "" said Shabbar Zaidi, a partner at A. F. Ferguson & Company, an +accounting firm in Karachi, referring to an affluent area of London. ""It's a very good country for the rich man. Chauffeurs, servants, big +houses. The question is, who is suffering? The common man."" +Then there are the tax-free goods supposedly meant for Afghanistan. Mr. Zaidi said much stayed in Pakistan illegally, including 5o,000 +tons of black tea that were imported last year. Afghans drink green tea. +""As per our information, not a single cup of black tea was drunk in Afghanistan,"" he said. +Tax collectors try to be tough. When Mr. Naqvi headed the tax authority, he tried to conduct a broad audit, prompting howls of protest. +Lawyers from the Lahore High Court Bar Association — also evaders — even issued a ruling against him. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770521 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770521 Date: 08/31/2015 +Mr. Majeed said his collectors now use individual electric bills to track down rich evaders, on the assumption that high bills mean air- +conditioning, which means wealth. They recently issued hundreds of warnings to rich houses in Islamabad. But going after politicians, +he said, is tricky. ""Not while they're in power,"" he said, smiling. +Tax collection has risen by about 20 percent a year recently, he said, though it barely registers as an increase because more than half of +Pakistan's economy is off the books. +Lacking the political will to collect income tax, Pakistan resorts to easier measures, like the sales tax, considered less fair because it hits +the poor as hard as the rich. Muhamed Azhar, 26, a chauffeur in Karachi with a $123-a-month salary, pays the same sales tax rate as a +National Assembly member who makes $1,400 a month with benefits. Earnings from real estate and land are rarely declared. +""The big people ruling us have houses and servants, and they should pay taxes,"" Mr. Azhar said, watching motorcades of sport utility +vehicles zip by, en route to the local Parliament. He sometimes wonders whether they are even going to work at all. With all the tinted +windows, guards and fuss, he has never actually seen them. +The overwhelming majority of Pakistan's tax burden is carried by the manufacturing sector for the domestic market, which, according to +Mr. Majeed, makes up only 19 percent of Pakistan's economy but pays 51 percent of its taxes. +Most economic activity takes place in the shadows. Merchants — the most vociferous opponents of a value-added tax, a tax the +International Monetary Fund has pressed Pakistan to adopt largely because it would require documentation — make up a fifth of the +economy, but carry 6 percent of its tax burden. Out of millions of shops in Pakistan, just i6o,000 are now registered for a general sales +tax, Mr. Majeed said. +Particularly galling for Pakistan's middle class is the lack of a federal tax on agriculture, an industry that employs nearly half of +Pakistan's population and whose profits go largely to the wealthy landowners who pack local Parliaments. When the World Bank finally +forced adoption of a modest provincial tax in 1997 as a condition for a loan, few paid. +Mr. Tareen, the member of Parliament, said that when he first tried to pay, tax collectors refused to take the money, not wanting to rock +the boat.

Confined behind the elaborate firewalls of +authoritarian regimes such as China and Iran, they find their rights to expression threatened online and off-- by +elaborate systems of monitoring and censorship and by harsh laws that punish bloggers with imprisonment or +even death. +In January, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton spoke powerfully in support of Internet freedom, saying, +""We stand for a single Internet where all of humanity has equal access to knowledge and ideas. And we +recognize that the world's information infrastructure will become what we and others make of it."" +Since then, the State Department has brought the issue of online freedom to the table in its diplomacy around +the world and joined with Internet providers and social media companies to foster public-private partnership in +Internet freedom. Such collaboration is key, since authoritarian regimes so often contract out the daily work of +censorship to private companies. +Congress, too, has showed commitment to openness online, allocating $35 million in funding between the 2009 +and 2010 budgets for work that promotes Internet freedom. This money has yet to be spent, but the State +Department finally has sent the names of designated recipients of the 2009 budget's $5 million in Internet +freedom funding to Congress for its approval and soon will begin the process for distributing this year's grants. +As it moves forward on this vital issue, the State Department must carefully determine how best to spend its +limited resources.

Investing in censorship-circumvention techniques like those that powered +Tehran's ""Twitter revolution"" in June 2009 could have a tremendous, measurable impact. +Although this solution is not without its problems -- the best-known provider of this software is the Falun Gong- +affiliated Global Internet Freedom consortium, and users behind China's Great Firewall may mistrust the +technology of a group their government has banned -- the State Department must seriously consider channeling +funds to organizations that have demonstrated great potential to make a difference. +The State Department is attempting a more holistic approach to Internet freedom, spreading funds across a +variety of projects. Monitoring the efficacy of chosen solutions and rewarding those that produce results will be +essential as this program continues. +A cyberspace without walls or barriers, where people can assemble and express themselves freely, without fear +of censorship or imprisonment, will make the world safer for the United States and for democracies everywhere. +Continued public-private partnership, prioritization of Internet freedom in diplomacy and the wise deployment +of allocated funds will move this ideal closer to reality. +Ben Scott +Policy Advisor for Innovation +Office of the Secretary of State +e: scottdb@state.gov I I 202-647-4705 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770535 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5628,C05770538,THANK YOU!,H,"Verveer, Melanne S",143,2010-07-21T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0088/DOC_0C05770538/C05770538.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Thank you!,,"Verveer, Melanne S ",,"Wednesday, July 21, 2010 3:35 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770538,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,"Thank you for all you did on behalf of the Afghan women on your whirlwind visit.

We continue to work with the government to crack +down on corruption, both bilaterally and through the Great Lakes Contact Group. At the United Nations +Security Council, we successfully pushed to expand the listing criteria in the DRC Sanctions Committee to +include those supporting illegal armed groups through illicit trade of natural resources. We have provided +support for initiatives on certification and due diligence that have been initiated by the government of the DRC, +local and foreign industry groups, and regional and international institutions.

Nonetheless, the article below, just posted by the NY +Review, soon to be published, is a breakthrough piece that will have a large impact. It's worth reading, not least for Frank +Luntz's poll numbers. The hysterical tone of much of the Israeli leadership and US Jewish community is partly rooted in +this long-term and profound development. Sid +http://www.nybooks.com/articles/archives/2010/jun/10/failure-american-jewish-establishment/ +The Failure of the American Jewish Establishment +June 10, 2010 +by Peter Beinart +E-mail Single Page Share More by Peter Beinart +anjamin Netanyahu; drawing by John Springs +In 2003, several prominent Jewish philanthropists hired Republican pollster Frank Luntz to explain why American Jewish +college students were not more vigorously rebutting campus criticism of Israel. In response, he unwittingly produced the +most damning indictment of the organized American Jewish community that I have ever seen. +The philanthropists wanted to know what Jewish students thought about Israel. Luntz found that they mostly didn't. ""Six +times we have brought Jewish youth together as a group to talk about their Jewishness and connection to Israel,"" he +reported. ""Six times the topic of Israel did not come up until it was prompted. Six times these Jewish youth used the word +'they' rather than'us` to describe the situation."" +That Luntz encountered indifference was not surprising. In recent years, several studies have revealed, in the words of +Steven Cohen of Hebrew Union College and An Kelman of the University of California at Davis, that ""non-Orthodox +younger Jews, on the whole, feel much less attached to Israel than their elders,"" with many professing ""a near-total +absence of positive feelings."" In 2008, the student senate at Brandeis, the only nonsectarian Jewish-sponsored university +in America, rejected a resolution commemorating the sixtieth anniversary of the Jewish state. +Luntz's task was to figure out what had gone wrong. When he probed the students' views of Israel, he hit up against some +firm beliefs. First, ""they reserve the right to question the Israeli position."" These young Jews, Luntz explained, ""resist +anything they see as 'group think."" They want an ""open and frank"" discussion of Israel and its flaws. Second, ""young +Jews desperately want peace."" When Luntz showed them a series of ads, one of the most popular was entitled ""Proof that +Israel Wants Peace,"" and listed offers by various Israeli governments to withdraw from conquered land. Third, ""some +empathize with the plight of the Palestinians."" When Luntz displayed ads depicting Palestinians as violent and hateful, +several focus group participants criticized them as stereotypical and unfair, citing their own Muslim friends. +Most of the students, in other words, were liberals, broadly defined. They had imbibed some of the defining values of +American Jewish political culture: a belief in open debate, a skepticism about military force, a commitment to human +rights. And in their innocence, they did not realize that they were supposed to shed those values when it came to Israel. +The only kind of Zionism they found attractive was a Zionism that recognized Palestinians as deserving of dignity and +capable of peace, and they were quite willing to condemn an Israeli government that did not share those beliefs. Luntz did +not grasp the irony. The only kind of Zionism they found attractive was the kind that the American Jewish establishment +has been working against for most of their lives. +Among American Jews today, there are a great many Zionists, especially in the Orthodox world, people deeply devoted to +the State of Israel. And there are a great many liberals, especially in the secular Jewish world, people deeply devoted to +human rights for all people, Palestinians included. But the two groups are increasingly distinct. Particularly in the younger +generations, fewer and fewer American Jewish liberals are Zionists; fewer and fewer American Jewish Zionists are liberal. +One reason is that the leading institutions of American Jewry have refused to foster—indeed, have actively opposed—a +Zionism that challenges Israel's behavior in the West Bank and Gaza Strip and toward its own Arab citizens. For several +decades, the Jewish establishment has asked American Jews to check their liberalism at Zionism's door, and now, to their +horror, they are finding that many young Jews have checked their Zionism instead. +Morally, American Zionism is in a downward spiral. If the leaders of groups like AIPAC and the Conference of Presidents +of Major American Jewish Organizations do not change course, they will wake up one day to find a younger, Orthodox- +dominated, Zionist leadership whose naked hostility to Arabs and Palestinians scares even them, and a mass of secular +American Jews who range from apathetic to appalled. Saving liberal Zionism in the United States—so that American Jews +can help save liberal Zionism in Israel—is the great American Jewish challenge of our age. And it starts where Luntz's +students wanted it to start: by talking frankly about Israel's current government, by no longer averting our eyes. +Since the 1990s, journalists and scholars have been describing a bifurcation in Israeli society. In the words of Hebrew +University political scientist Yaron Ezrahi, ""After decades of what came to be called a national consensus, the Zionist +narrative of liberation [has] dissolved into openly contesting versions."" One version, ""founded on a long memory of +persecution, genocide, and a bitter struggle for survival, is pessimistic, distrustful of non-Jews, and believing only in +Jewish power and solidarity."" Another, ""nourished by secularized Versions of messianism as well as the Enlightenment +idea of progress,"" articulates ""a deep sense of the limits of military force, and a commitment to liberal-democratic values."" +Every country manifests some kind of ideological divide. But in contemporary Israel, the gulf is among the widest on earth. +As Ezrahi and others have noted, this latter, liberal-democratic Zionism has grown alongside a new individualism, +particularly among secular Israelis, a greater demand for free expression, and a greater skepticism of coercive authority. +You can see this spirit in ""new historians"" like Tom Segev who have fearlessly excavated the darker corners of the Zionist +past and in jurists like former Supreme Court President Aharon Barak who have overturned Knesset laws that violate the +human rights guarantees in Israel's ""Basic Laws."" You can also see it in former Prime Minister Ehud Barak's apparent +willingness to relinquish much of the West Bank in 2000 and early 2001. +But in Israel today, this humane, universalistic Zionism does not wield power. To the contrary, it is gasping for air. To +understand how deeply antithetical its values are to those of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, it's worth +considering the case of Effi Eitam. Eitam, a charismatic ex–cabinet minister and war hero, has proposed ethnically +cleansing Palestinians from the West Bank. ""We'll have to expel the overwhelming majority of West Bank Arabs from here +and remove Israeli Arabs from [the] political system,"" he declared in 2006. In 2008, Eitam merged his small Ahi Party into +Netanyahu's Likud. And for the 2009-2010 academic year, he is Netanyahu's special emissary for overseas ""campus +engagement."" In that capacity, he visited a dozen American high schools and colleges last fall on the Israeli government's +behalf. The group that organized his tour was called ""Caravan for Democracy."" +Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman once shared Eitam's views. In his youth, he briefly joined Meir Kahane's now +banned Kach Party, which also advocated the expulsion of Arabs from Israeli soil. Now Lieberman's position might be +called ""pre-expulsion."" He wants to revoke the citizenship of Israeli Arabs who won't swear a loyalty oath to the Jewish +state. He tried to prevent two Arab parties that opposed Israel's 2008-2009 Gaza war from running candidates for the +Knesset. He said Arab Knesset members who met with representatives of Hamas should be executed. He wants to jail +Arabs who publicly mourn on Israeli Independence Day, and he hopes to permanently deny citizenship to Arabs from +other countries who marry Arab citizens of Israel. +You don't have to be paranoid to see the connection between Lieberman's current views and his former ones. The more +you strip Israeli Arabs of legal protection, and the more you accuse them of treason, the more thinkable a policy of +expulsion becomes. Lieberman's American defenders often note that in theory he supports a Palestinian state. What they +usually fail to mention is that for him, a two-state solution means redrawing Israel's border so that a large chunk of Israeli +Arabs find themselves exiled to another country, without their consent. +Lieberman served as chief of staff during Netanyahu's first term as prime minister. And when it comes to the West Bank, +Netanyahu's own record is in its way even more extreme than his protégé's. In his 1993 book, A Place among the +Nations, Netanyahu not only rejects the idea of a Palestinian state, he denies that there is such a thing as a Palestinian. In +fact, he repeatedly equates the Palestinian bid for statehood with Nazism. An Israel that withdraws from the West Bank, +he has declared, would be a ""ghetto-state"" with ""Auschwitz borders."" And the effort ""to gouge Judea and Samaria [the +West Bank] out of Israel"" resembles Hitler's bid to wrench the German-speaking ""Sudeten district"" from Czechoslovakia in +1938. It is unfair, Netanyahu insists, to ask Israel to concede more territory since it has already made vast, gut-wrenching +concessions. What kind of concessions? It has abandoned its claim to Jordan, which by rights should be part of the +Jewish state. +On the left of Netanyahu's coalition sits Ehud Barak's emasculated Labor Party, but whatever moderating potential it may +have is counterbalanced by what is, in some ways, the most illiberal coalition partner of all, Shas, the ultra-Orthodox party +representing Jews of North African and Middle Eastern descent. At one point, Shas—like some of its Ashkenazi ultra- +Orthodox counterparts—was open to dismantling settlements. In recent years, however, ultra-Orthodox Israelis, anxious +to find housing for their large families, have increasingly moved to the West Bank, where thanks to government subsidies +it is far cheaper to live. Not coincidentally, their political parties have swung hard against territorial compromise. And they +have done so with a virulence that reflects ultra-Orthodox Judaism's profound hostility to liberal values. Rabbi Ovadia +Yosef, Shas's immensely powerful spiritual leader, has called Arabs ""vipers,"" ""snakes,"" and ""ants."" In 2005, after Prime +Minister Ariel Sharon proposed dismantling settlements in the Gaza Strip, Yosef urged that ""God strike him down."" The +official Shas newspaper recently called President Obama ""an Islamic extremist."" +Hebrew University Professor Ze'ev Sternhell is an expert on fascism and a winner of the prestigious Israel Prize. +Commenting on Lieberman and the leaders of Shas in a recent Op-Ed in Haaretz, he wrote, ""The last time politicians +holding views similar to theirs were in power in post–World War II Western Europe was in Franco's Spain."" With their +blessing, ""a crude and multifaceted campaign is being waged against the foundations of the democratic and liberal order."" +Sternhell should know. In September 2008, he was injured when a settler set off a pipe bomb at his house. +Israeli governments come and go, but the Netanyahu coalition is the product of frightening, long-term trends in Israeli +society: an ultra-Orthodox population that is increasing dramatically, a settler movement that is growing more radical and +more entrenched in the Israeli bureaucracy and army, and a Russian immigrant community that is particularly prone to +anti-Arab racism. In 2009, a poll by the Israel Democracy Institute found that 53 percent of Jewish Israelis (and 77 percent +of recent immigrants from the former USSR) support encouraging Arabs to leave the country. Attitudes are worst among +Israel's young. When Israeli high schools held mock elections last year, Lieberman won. This March, a poll found that 56 +percent of Jewish Israeli high school students—and more than 80 percent of religious Jewish high school students— +would deny Israeli Arabs the right to be elected to the Knesset. An education ministry official called the survey ""a huge +warning signal in light of the strengthening trends of extremist views among the youth."" +You might think that such trends, and the sympathy for them expressed by some in Israel's government, would occasion +substantial public concern—even outrage—among the leaders of organized American Jewry. You would be wrong. In +Israel itself, voices from the left, and even center, warn in increasingly urgent tones about threats to Israeli democracy. +(Former Prime Ministers Ehud Olmert and Ehud Barak have both said that Israel risks becoming an ""apartheid state"" if it +continues to hold the West Bank. This April, when settlers forced a large Israeli bookstore to stop selling a book critical of +the occupation, Shulamit Aloni, former head of the dovish Meretz Party, declared that ""Israel has not been democratic for +some time now."") But in the United States, groups like AIPAC and the Presidents' Conference patrol public discourse, +scolding people who contradict their vision of Israel as a state in which all leaders cherish democracy and yearn +for peace. +The result is a terrible irony. In theory, mainstream American Jewish organizations still hew to a liberal vision of Zionism. +On its website, AIPAC celebrates Israel's commitment to ""free speech and minority rights."" The Conference of Presidents +declares that ""Israel and the United States share political, moral and intellectual values including democracy, freedom, +security and peace."" These groups would never say, as do some in Netanyahu's coalition, that Israeli Arabs don't deserve +full citizenship and West Bank Palestinians don't deserve human rights. But in practice, by defending virtually anything +any Israeli government does, they make themselves intellectual bodyguards for Israeli leaders who threaten the very +liberal values they profess to admire. +After Israel's elections last February, for instance, Malcolm Hoenlein, executive vice-chairman of the Presidents' +Conference, explained that Avigdor Lieberman's agenda was ""far more moderate than the media has presented it."" +Insisting that Lieberman bears no general animus toward Israeli Arabs, Abraham Foxman, national director of the Anti- +Defamation League, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that ""He's not saying expel them. He's not saying punish them."" +(Permanently denying citizenship to their Arab spouses or jailing them if they publicly mourn on Israeli Independence Day +evidently does not qualify as punishment.) The ADL has criticized anti-Arab bigotry in the past, and the American Jewish +Committee, to its credit, warned that Lieberman's proposed loyalty oath would ""chill Israel's democratic political debate."" +But the Forward summed up the overall response of America's communal Jewish leadership in its headline ""Jewish +Leaders Largely Silent on Lieberman's Role in Government."" +Not only does the organized American Jewish community mostly avoid public criticism of the Israeli government, it tries to +prevent others from leveling such criticism as well. In recent years, American Jewish organizations have waged a +campaign to discredit the world's most respected international human rights groups. In 2006, Foxman called an Amnesty +International report on Israeli killing of Lebanese civilians ""bigoted, biased, and borderline anti-Semitic."" The Conference +of Presidents has announced that ""biased NGOs include Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Christian Aid, [and] +Save the Children."" Last summer, an AIPAC spokesman declared that Human Rights Watch ""has repeatedly +demonstrated its anti-Israel bias."" When the Obama administration awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Mary +Robinson, former UN high commissioner for human rights, the ADL and AIPAC both protested, citing the fact that she had +presided over the 2001 World Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa. (Early drafts of the conference report +implicitly accused Israel of racism. Robinson helped expunge that defamatory charge, angering Syria and Iran.) +Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International are not infallible. But when groups like AIPAC and the Presidents' +Conference avoid virtually all public criticism of Israeli actions—directing their outrage solely at Israel's neighbors—they +leave themselves in a poor position to charge bias. Moreover, while American Jewish groups claim that they are simply +defending Israel from its foes, they are actually taking sides in a struggle within Israel between radically different Zionist +visions. At the very moment the Anti-Defamation League claimed that Robinson harbored an ""animus toward Israel,"" an +alliance of seven Israeli human rights groups publicly congratulated her on her award. Many of those groups, like +B'Tselem, which monitors Israeli actions in the Occupied Territories, and the Israeli branch of Physicians for Human +Rights, have been at least as critical of Israel's actions in Lebanon, Gaza, and the West Bank as have Amnesty +International and Human Rights Watch. +All of which raises an uncomfortable question. If American Jewish groups claim that Israel's overseas human rights critics +are motivated by anti- Israeli, if not anti-Semitic, bias, what does that say about Israel's domestic human rights critics? +The implication is clear: they must be guilty of self-hatred, if not treason. American Jewish leaders don't generally say +that, of course, but their allies in the Netanyahu government do. Last summer, Israel's vice prime minister, Moshe Ya'alon, +called the anti-occupation group Peace Now a ""virus."" This January, a right-wing group called Im Tirtzu accused Israeli +human rights organizations of having fed information to the Goldstone Commission that investigated Israel's Gaza war. A +Knesset member from Netanyahu's Likud promptly charged Naomi Chazan, head of the New Israel Fund, which supports +some of those human rights groups, with treason, and a member of Lieberman's party launched an investigation aimed at +curbing foreign funding of Israeli NG0s. +To their credit, Foxman and other American Jewish leaders opposed the move, which might have impaired their own +work. But they are reaping what they sowed. If you suggest that mainstream human rights criticism of Israel's government +is motivated by animus toward the state, or toward Jews in general, you give aid and comfort to those in Israel who make +the same charges against the human rights critics in their midst. +In the American Jewish establishment today, the language of liberal Zionism—with its idioms of human rights, equal +citizenship, and territorial compromise—has been drained of meaning. It remains the lingua franca in part for generational +reasons, because many older American Zionists still see themselves as liberals of a sort. They vote Democratic; they are +unmoved by biblical claims to the West Bank; they see average Palestinians as decent people betrayed by bad leaders; +and they are secular. They don't want Jewish organizations to criticize Israel from the left, but neither do they want them +to be agents of the Israeli right. +These American Zionists are largely the product of a particular era. Many were shaped by the terrifying days leading up to +the Six-Day War, when it appeared that Israel might be overrun, and by the bitter aftermath of the Yom Kippur War, when +much of the world seemed to turn against the Jewish state. In that crucible, Israel became their Jewish identity, often in +conjunction with the Holocaust, which the 1967 and 1973 wars helped make central to American Jewish life. These Jews +embraced Zionism before the settler movement became a major force in Israeli politics, before the 1982 Lebanon war, +before the first intifada. They fell in love with an Israel that was more secular, less divided, and less shaped by the culture, +politics, and theology of occupation. And by downplaying the significance of Avigdor Lieberman, the settlers, and Shas, +American Jewish groups allow these older Zionists to continue to identify with that more internally cohesive, more +innocent Israel of their youth, an Israel that now only exists in their memories. +But these secular Zionists aren't reproducing themselves. Their children have no memory of Arab armies massed on +Israel's border and of Israel surviving in part thanks to urgent military assistance from the United States. Instead, they +have grown up viewing Israel as a regional hegemon and an occupying power. As a result, they are more conscious than +their parents of the degree to which Israeli behavior violates liberal ideals, and less willing to grant Israel an exemption +because its survival seems in peril. Because they have inherited their parents' liberalism, they cannot embrace their +uncritical Zionism. Because their liberalism is real, they can see that the liberalism of the American Jewish establishment +is fake. +To sustain their uncritical brand of Zionism, therefore, America's Jewish organizations will need to look elsewhere to +replenish their ranks. They will need to find young American. Jews who have come of age during the West Bank +occupation but are not troubled by it. And those young American Jews will come disproportionately from the +Orthodox world. +Because they marry earlier, intermarry less, and have more children, Orthodox Jews are growing rapidly as a share of the +American Jewish population. According to a 2006 American Jewish Committee (AJC) survey, while Orthodox Jews make +up only 12 percent of American Jewry over the age of sixty, they constitute 34 percent between the ages of eighteen and +twenty-four. For America's Zionist organizations, these Orthodox youngsters are a potential bonanza. In their yeshivas +they learn devotion to Israel from an early age; they generally spend a year of religious study there after high school, and +often know friends or relatives who have immigrated to Israel. The same AJC study found that while only 16 percent of +non-Orthodox adult Jews under the age of forty feel ""very close to Israel,"" among the Orthodox the figure is 79 percent. As +secular Jews drift away from America's Zionist institutions, their Orthodox counterparts will likely step into the breach. The +Orthodox ""are still interested in parochial Jewish concerns,"" explains Samuel Heilman, a sociologist at the City University +of New York. ""They are among the last ones who stayed in the Jewish house, so they now control the lights."" +But it is this very parochialism—a deep commitment to Jewish concerns, which often outweighs more universal ones— +that gives Orthodox Jewish Zionism a distinctly illiberal cast. The 2006 AJC poll found that while 60 percent of non- +Orthodox American Jews under the age of forty support a Palestinian state, that figure drops to 25 percent among the +Orthodox. In 2009, when Brandeis University's Theodore Sasson asked American Jewish focus groups about Israel, he +found Orthodox participants much less supportive of dismantling settlements as part of a peace deal. Even more tellingly, +Reform, Conservative, and unaffiliated Jews tended to believe that average Palestinians wanted peace, but had been ill- +served by their leaders. Orthodox Jews, by contrast, were more likely to see the Palestinian people as the enemy, and to +deny that ordinary Palestinians shared any common interests or values with ordinary Israelis or Jews. +Orthodox Judaism has great virtues, including a communal warmth and a commitment to Jewish learning unmatched in +the American Jewish world. (I'm biased, since my family attends an Orthodox synagogue.) But if current trends continue, +the growing influence of Orthodox Jews in America's Jewish communal institutions will erode even the liberal-democratic +veneer that today covers American Zionism. In 2002, America's major Jewish organizations sponsored a large Israel +solidarity rally on the Washington Mall. Up and down the east coast, yeshivas shut down for the day, swelling the +estimated Orthodox share of the crowd to close to 70 percent. When the then Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul +Wolfowitz told the rally that ""innocent Palestinians are suffering and dying as well,"" he was booed. +America's Jewish leaders should think hard about that rally. Unless they change course, it portends the future: an +American Zionist movement that does not even feign concern for Palestinian dignity and a broader American Jewish +population that does not even feign concern for Israel. My own children, given their upbringing, could as easily end up +among the booers as among Luntz's focus group. Either prospect fills me with dread. +In 2004, in an effort to prevent weapons smuggling from Egypt, Israeli tanks and bulldozers demolished hundreds of +houses in the Rafah refugee camp in the southern Gaza Strip. Watching television, a veteran Israeli commentator and +politician named Tommy Lapid saw an elderly Palestinian woman crouched on all fours looking for her medicines amid the +ruins of her home. He said she reminded him of his grandmother. +In that moment, Lapid captured the spirit that is suffocating within organized American Jewish life. To begin with, he +watched. In my experience, there is an epidemic of not watching among American Zionists today.

In a more recent report on how to foster +Zionism among America's young, Luntz urges American Jewish groups to use the word ""Arabs, not Palestinians,"" since +""the term `Palestinians' evokes images of refugee camps, victims and oppression,"" while ""Arab' says wealth, oil +and Islam."" +Of course, Israel—like the United States—must sometimes take morally difficult actions in its own defense. But they are +morally difficult only if you allow yourself some human connection to the other side. Otherwise, security justifies +everything. The heads of AIPAC and the Presidents' Conference should ask themselves what Israel's leaders would have +to do or say to make them scream ""no."" After all, Lieberman is foreign minister; Effi Eitam is touring American universities; +settlements are growing at triple the rate of the Israeli population; half of Israeli Jewish high school students want Arabs +barred from the Knesset. If the line has not yet been crossed, where is the line? +What infuriated critics about Lapid's comment was that his grandmother died at Auschwitz. How dare he defile the +memory of the Holocaust? Of course, the Holocaust is immeasurably worse than anything Israel has done or ever will do. +• +But at least Lapid used Jewish suffering to connect to the suffering of others. In the world of AIPAC, the Holocaust +analogies never stop, and their message is always the same: Jews are licensed by their victimhood to worry only about +themselves. Many of Israel's founders believed that with statehood, Jews would rightly be judged on the way they treated +the non-Jews living under their dominion. ""For the first time we shall be the majority living with a minority,"" Knesset +member Pinchas Lavon declared in 1948, ""and we shall be called upon to provide an example and prove how Jews live +with a minority."" +But the message of the American Jewish establishment and its allies in the Netanyahu government is exactly the +opposite: since Jews are history's permanent victims, always on the knife-edge of extinction, moral responsibility is a +luxury Israel does not have. Its only responsibility is to survive. As former Knesset speaker Avraham Burg writes in his +remarkable 2008 book, The Holocaust Is Over; We Must Rise From Its Ashes, ""Victimhood sets you free."" +This obsession with victimhood lies at the heart of why Zionism is dying among America's secular Jewish young. It simply +bears no relationship to their lived experience, or what they have seen of Israel's. Yes, Israel faces threats from Hezbollah +and Hamas. Yes, Israelis understandably worry about a nuclear Iran. But the dilemmas you face when you possess +dozens or hundreds of nuclear weapons, and your adversary, however despicable, may acquire one, are not the +dilemmas of the Warsaw Ghetto. The year 2010 is not, as Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed, 1938. The drama of Jewish +victimhood—a drama that feels natural to many Jews who lived through 1938, 1948, or even 1967—strikes most of +today's young American Jews as farce. +But there is a different Zionist calling, which has never been more desperately relevant. It has its roots in Israel's +Independence Proclamation, which promised that the Jewish state ""will be based on the precepts of liberty, justice and +peace taught by the Hebrew prophets,"" and in the December 1948 letter from Albert Einstein, Hannah Arendt, and others +to The New York Times, protesting right-wing Zionist leader Menachem Begin's visit to the United States after his party's +militias massacred Arab civilians in the village of Deir Yassin. It is a call to recognize that in a world in which Jewish +fortunes have radically changed, the best way to memorialize the history of Jewish suffering is through the ethical use of +Jewish power. +For several months now, a group of Israeli students has been traveling every Friday to the East Jerusalem neighborhood +of Sheikh Jarrah, where a Palestinian family named the Ghawis lives on the street outside their home of fifty-three years, +from which they were evicted to make room for Jewish settlers. Although repeatedly arrested for protesting without a +permit, and called traitors and self-haters by the Israeli right, the students keep coming, their numbers now swelling into +the thousands. What if American Jewish organizations brought these young people to speak at Hillel? What if this was the +face of Zionism shown to America's Jewish young? What if the students in Luntz's focus group had been told that their +generation faces a challenge as momentous as any in Jewish history: to save liberal democracy in the only Jewish state +on earth? +""Too many years I lived in the warm embrace of institutionalized elusiveness and was a part of it,"" writes Avraham Burg. ""I +was very comfortable there."" I know; I was comfortable there too. But comfortable Zionism has become a moral +abdication. Let's hope that Luntz's students, in solidarity with their counterparts at Sheikh Jarrah, can foster an +uncomfortable Zionism, a Zionism angry at what Israel risks becoming, and in love with what it still could be. Let's hope +they care enough to try. +—May 12, 2010 . +Peter Beinart is Associate Professor of Journalism and Political Science at the City University of New York, a Senior +Fellow at the New America Foundation, and Senior Political Writer for The Daily Beast.

Sid +http://www.nybooks.com/articles/archives/2010/jun/10/failure-american-jewish-establishment/ +The Failure of the American Jewish Establishment +June 10, 2010 +by Peter Beinart +E-mail Single Page Share More by Peter Beinart +anjamin Netanyahu; drawing by John Springs +In 2003, several prominent Jewish philanthropists hired Republican pollster Frank Luntz to explain why American Jewish +college students were not more vigorously rebutting campus criticism of Israel. In response, he unwittingly produced the +most damning indictment of the organized American Jewish community that I have ever seen. +The philanthropists wanted to know what Jewish students thought about Israel. Luntz found that they mostly didn't. ""Six +times we have brought Jewish youth together as a group to talk about their Jewishness and connection to Israel,"" he +reported. ""Six times the topic of Israel did not come up until it was prompted. Six times these Jewish youth used the word +'they' rather than'us` to describe the situation."" +That Luntz encountered indifference was not surprising. In recent years, several studies have revealed, in the words of +Steven Cohen of Hebrew Union College and An Kelman of the University of California at Davis, that ""non-Orthodox +younger Jews, on the whole, feel much less attached to Israel than their elders,"" with many professing ""a near-total +absence of positive feelings."" In 2008, the student senate at Brandeis, the only nonsectarian Jewish-sponsored university +in America, rejected a resolution commemorating the sixtieth anniversary of the Jewish state. +Luntz's task was to figure out what had gone wrong. When he probed the students' views of Israel, he hit up against some +firm beliefs. First, ""they reserve the right to question the Israeli position."" These young Jews, Luntz explained, ""resist +anything they see as 'group think."" They want an ""open and frank"" discussion of Israel and its flaws. Second, ""young +Jews desperately want peace."" When Luntz showed them a series of ads, one of the most popular was entitled ""Proof that +Israel Wants Peace,"" and listed offers by various Israeli governments to withdraw from conquered land. Third, ""some +empathize with the plight of the Palestinians."" When Luntz displayed ads depicting Palestinians as violent and hateful, +several focus group participants criticized them as stereotypical and unfair, citing their own Muslim friends. +Most of the students, in other words, were liberals, broadly defined. They had imbibed some of the defining values of +American Jewish political culture: a belief in open debate, a skepticism about military force, a commitment to human +rights. And in their innocence, they did not realize that they were supposed to shed those values when it came to Israel. +The only kind of Zionism they found attractive was a Zionism that recognized Palestinians as deserving of dignity and +capable of peace, and they were quite willing to condemn an Israeli government that did not share those beliefs. Luntz did +not grasp the irony. The only kind of Zionism they found attractive was the kind that the American Jewish establishment +has been working against for most of their lives. +Among American Jews today, there are a great many Zionists, especially in the Orthodox world, people deeply devoted to +the State of Israel. And there are a great many liberals, especially in the secular Jewish world, people deeply devoted to +human rights for all people, Palestinians included. But the two groups are increasingly distinct. Particularly in the younger +generations, fewer and fewer American Jewish liberals are Zionists; fewer and fewer American Jewish Zionists are liberal. +One reason is that the leading institutions of American Jewry have refused to foster—indeed, have actively opposed—a +Zionism that challenges Israel's behavior in the West Bank and Gaza Strip and toward its own Arab citizens. For several +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770567 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770567 Date: 08/31/2015 +decades, the Jewish establishment has asked American Jews to check their liberalism at Zionism's door, and now, to their +horror, they are finding that many young Jews have checked their Zionism instead. +Morally, American Zionism is in a downward spiral. If the leaders of groups like AIPAC and the Conference of Presidents +of Major American Jewish Organizations do not change course, they will wake up one day to find a younger, Orthodox- +dominated, Zionist leadership whose naked hostility to Arabs and Palestinians scares even them, and a mass of secular +American Jews who range from apathetic to appalled. Saving liberal Zionism in the United States—so that American Jews +can help save liberal Zionism in Israel—is the great American Jewish challenge of our age. And it starts where Luntz's +students wanted it to start: by talking frankly about Israel's current government, by no longer averting our eyes. +Since the 1990s, journalists and scholars have been describing a bifurcation in Israeli society. In the words of Hebrew +University political scientist Yaron Ezrahi, ""After decades of what came to be called a national consensus, the Zionist +narrative of liberation [has] dissolved into openly contesting versions."" One version, ""founded on a long memory of +persecution, genocide, and a bitter struggle for survival, is pessimistic, distrustful of non-Jews, and believing only in +Jewish power and solidarity."" Another, ""nourished by secularized Versions of messianism as well as the Enlightenment +idea of progress,"" articulates ""a deep sense of the limits of military force, and a commitment to liberal-democratic values."" +Every country manifests some kind of ideological divide. But in contemporary Israel, the gulf is among the widest on earth. +As Ezrahi and others have noted, this latter, liberal-democratic Zionism has grown alongside a new individualism, +particularly among secular Israelis, a greater demand for free expression, and a greater skepticism of coercive authority. +You can see this spirit in ""new historians"" like Tom Segev who have fearlessly excavated the darker corners of the Zionist +past and in jurists like former Supreme Court President Aharon Barak who have overturned Knesset laws that violate the +human rights guarantees in Israel's ""Basic Laws."" You can also see it in former Prime Minister Ehud Barak's apparent +willingness to relinquish much of the West Bank in 2000 and early 2001. +But in Israel today, this humane, universalistic Zionism does not wield power. To the contrary, it is gasping for air. To +understand how deeply antithetical its values are to those of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government, it's worth +considering the case of Effi Eitam. Eitam, a charismatic ex–cabinet minister and war hero, has proposed ethnically +cleansing Palestinians from the West Bank. ""We'll have to expel the overwhelming majority of West Bank Arabs from here +and remove Israeli Arabs from [the] political system,"" he declared in 2006. In 2008, Eitam merged his small Ahi Party into +Netanyahu's Likud. And for the 2009-2010 academic year, he is Netanyahu's special emissary for overseas ""campus +engagement."" In that capacity, he visited a dozen American high schools and colleges last fall on the Israeli government's +behalf. The group that organized his tour was called ""Caravan for Democracy."" +Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman once shared Eitam's views. In his youth, he briefly joined Meir Kahane's now +banned Kach Party, which also advocated the expulsion of Arabs from Israeli soil. Now Lieberman's position might be +called ""pre-expulsion."" He wants to revoke the citizenship of Israeli Arabs who won't swear a loyalty oath to the Jewish +state. He tried to prevent two Arab parties that opposed Israel's 2008-2009 Gaza war from running candidates for the +Knesset. He said Arab Knesset members who met with representatives of Hamas should be executed. He wants to jail +Arabs who publicly mourn on Israeli Independence Day, and he hopes to permanently deny citizenship to Arabs from +other countries who marry Arab citizens of Israel. +You don't have to be paranoid to see the connection between Lieberman's current views and his former ones. The more +you strip Israeli Arabs of legal protection, and the more you accuse them of treason, the more thinkable a policy of +expulsion becomes. Lieberman's American defenders often note that in theory he supports a Palestinian state. What they +usually fail to mention is that for him, a two-state solution means redrawing Israel's border so that a large chunk of Israeli +Arabs find themselves exiled to another country, without their consent. +Lieberman served as chief of staff during Netanyahu's first term as prime minister. And when it comes to the West Bank, +Netanyahu's own record is in its way even more extreme than his protégé's. In his 1993 book, A Place among the +Nations, Netanyahu not only rejects the idea of a Palestinian state, he denies that there is such a thing as a Palestinian. In +fact, he repeatedly equates the Palestinian bid for statehood with Nazism. An Israel that withdraws from the West Bank, +he has declared, would be a ""ghetto-state"" with ""Auschwitz borders."" And the effort ""to gouge Judea and Samaria [the +West Bank] out of Israel"" resembles Hitler's bid to wrench the German-speaking ""Sudeten district"" from Czechoslovakia in +1938. It is unfair, Netanyahu insists, to ask Israel to concede more territory since it has already made vast, gut-wrenching +concessions. What kind of concessions? It has abandoned its claim to Jordan, which by rights should be part of the +Jewish state. +On the left of Netanyahu's coalition sits Ehud Barak's emasculated Labor Party, but whatever moderating potential it may +have is counterbalanced by what is, in some ways, the most illiberal coalition partner of all, Shas, the ultra-Orthodox party +representing Jews of North African and Middle Eastern descent. At one point, Shas—like some of its Ashkenazi ultra- +Orthodox counterparts—was open to dismantling settlements. In recent years, however, ultra-Orthodox Israelis, anxious +to find housing for their large families, have increasingly moved to the West Bank, where thanks to government subsidies +it is far cheaper to live. Not coincidentally, their political parties have swung hard against territorial compromise. And they +have done so with a virulence that reflects ultra-Orthodox Judaism's profound hostility to liberal values. Rabbi Ovadia +Yosef, Shas's immensely powerful spiritual leader, has called Arabs ""vipers,"" ""snakes,"" and ""ants."" In 2005, after Prime +Minister Ariel Sharon proposed dismantling settlements in the Gaza Strip, Yosef urged that ""God strike him down."" The +official Shas newspaper recently called President Obama ""an Islamic extremist."" +Hebrew University Professor Ze'ev Sternhell is an expert on fascism and a winner of the prestigious Israel Prize. +Commenting on Lieberman and the leaders of Shas in a recent Op-Ed in Haaretz, he wrote, ""The last time politicians +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770567 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770567 Date: 08/31/2015 +holding views similar to theirs were in power in post–World War II Western Europe was in Franco's Spain."" With their +blessing, ""a crude and multifaceted campaign is being waged against the foundations of the democratic and liberal order."" +Sternhell should know. In September 2008, he was injured when a settler set off a pipe bomb at his house. +Israeli governments come and go, but the Netanyahu coalition is the product of frightening, long-term trends in Israeli +society: an ultra-Orthodox population that is increasing dramatically, a settler movement that is growing more radical and +more entrenched in the Israeli bureaucracy and army, and a Russian immigrant community that is particularly prone to +anti-Arab racism. In 2009, a poll by the Israel Democracy Institute found that 53 percent of Jewish Israelis (and 77 percent +of recent immigrants from the former USSR) support encouraging Arabs to leave the country. Attitudes are worst among +Israel's young. When Israeli high schools held mock elections last year, Lieberman won. This March, a poll found that 56 +percent of Jewish Israeli high school students—and more than 80 percent of religious Jewish high school students— +would deny Israeli Arabs the right to be elected to the Knesset. An education ministry official called the survey ""a huge +warning signal in light of the strengthening trends of extremist views among the youth."" +You might think that such trends, and the sympathy for them expressed by some in Israel's government, would occasion +substantial public concern—even outrage—among the leaders of organized American Jewry. You would be wrong. In +Israel itself, voices from the left, and even center, warn in increasingly urgent tones about threats to Israeli democracy. +(Former Prime Ministers Ehud Olmert and Ehud Barak have both said that Israel risks becoming an ""apartheid state"" if it +continues to hold the West Bank. This April, when settlers forced a large Israeli bookstore to stop selling a book critical of +the occupation, Shulamit Aloni, former head of the dovish Meretz Party, declared that ""Israel has not been democratic for +some time now."") But in the United States, groups like AIPAC and the Presidents' Conference patrol public discourse, +scolding people who contradict their vision of Israel as a state in which all leaders cherish democracy and yearn +for peace. +The result is a terrible irony. In theory, mainstream American Jewish organizations still hew to a liberal vision of Zionism. +On its website, AIPAC celebrates Israel's commitment to ""free speech and minority rights."" The Conference of Presidents +declares that ""Israel and the United States share political, moral and intellectual values including democracy, freedom, +security and peace."" These groups would never say, as do some in Netanyahu's coalition, that Israeli Arabs don't deserve +full citizenship and West Bank Palestinians don't deserve human rights. But in practice, by defending virtually anything +any Israeli government does, they make themselves intellectual bodyguards for Israeli leaders who threaten the very +liberal values they profess to admire. +After Israel's elections last February, for instance, Malcolm Hoenlein, executive vice-chairman of the Presidents' +Conference, explained that Avigdor Lieberman's agenda was ""far more moderate than the media has presented it."" +Insisting that Lieberman bears no general animus toward Israeli Arabs, Abraham Foxman, national director of the Anti- +Defamation League, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that ""He's not saying expel them. He's not saying punish them."" +(Permanently denying citizenship to their Arab spouses or jailing them if they publicly mourn on Israeli Independence Day +evidently does not qualify as punishment.) The ADL has criticized anti-Arab bigotry in the past, and the American Jewish +Committee, to its credit, warned that Lieberman's proposed loyalty oath would ""chill Israel's democratic political debate."" +But the Forward summed up the overall response of America's communal Jewish leadership in its headline ""Jewish +Leaders Largely Silent on Lieberman's Role in Government."" +Not only does the organized American Jewish community mostly avoid public criticism of the Israeli government, it tries to +prevent others from leveling such criticism as well. In recent years, American Jewish organizations have waged a +campaign to discredit the world's most respected international human rights groups. In 2006, Foxman called an Amnesty +International report on Israeli killing of Lebanese civilians ""bigoted, biased, and borderline anti-Semitic."" The Conference +of Presidents has announced that ""biased NGOs include Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Christian Aid, [and] +Save the Children."" Last summer, an AIPAC spokesman declared that Human Rights Watch ""has repeatedly +demonstrated its anti-Israel bias."" When the Obama administration awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom to Mary +Robinson, former UN high commissioner for human rights, the ADL and AIPAC both protested, citing the fact that she had +presided over the 2001 World Conference Against Racism in Durban, South Africa. (Early drafts of the conference report +implicitly accused Israel of racism. Robinson helped expunge that defamatory charge, angering Syria and Iran.) +Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International are not infallible. But when groups like AIPAC and the Presidents' +Conference avoid virtually all public criticism of Israeli actions—directing their outrage solely at Israel's neighbors—they +leave themselves in a poor position to charge bias. Moreover, while American Jewish groups claim that they are simply +defending Israel from its foes, they are actually taking sides in a struggle within Israel between radically different Zionist +visions. At the very moment the Anti-Defamation League claimed that Robinson harbored an ""animus toward Israel,"" an +alliance of seven Israeli human rights groups publicly congratulated her on her award. Many of those groups, like +B'Tselem, which monitors Israeli actions in the Occupied Territories, and the Israeli branch of Physicians for Human +Rights, have been at least as critical of Israel's actions in Lebanon, Gaza, and the West Bank as have Amnesty +International and Human Rights Watch. +All of which raises an uncomfortable question. If American Jewish groups claim that Israel's overseas human rights critics +are motivated by anti- Israeli, if not anti-Semitic, bias, what does that say about Israel's domestic human rights critics? +The implication is clear: they must be guilty of self-hatred, if not treason. American Jewish leaders don't generally say +that, of course, but their allies in the Netanyahu government do. Last summer, Israel's vice prime minister, Moshe Ya'alon, +called the anti-occupation group Peace Now a ""virus."" This January, a right-wing group called Im Tirtzu accused Israeli +human rights organizations of having fed information to the Goldstone Commission that investigated Israel's Gaza war. A +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770567 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770567 Date: 08/31/2015 +Knesset member from Netanyahu's Likud promptly charged Naomi Chazan, head of the New Israel Fund, which supports +some of those human rights groups, with treason, and a member of Lieberman's party launched an investigation aimed at +curbing foreign funding of Israeli NG0s. +To their credit, Foxman and other American Jewish leaders opposed the move, which might have impaired their own +work. But they are reaping what they sowed. If you suggest that mainstream human rights criticism of Israel's government +is motivated by animus toward the state, or toward Jews in general, you give aid and comfort to those in Israel who make +the same charges against the human rights critics in their midst. +In the American Jewish establishment today, the language of liberal Zionism—with its idioms of human rights, equal +citizenship, and territorial compromise—has been drained of meaning. It remains the lingua franca in part for generational +reasons, because many older American Zionists still see themselves as liberals of a sort. They vote Democratic; they are +unmoved by biblical claims to the West Bank; they see average Palestinians as decent people betrayed by bad leaders; +and they are secular. They don't want Jewish organizations to criticize Israel from the left, but neither do they want them +to be agents of the Israeli right. +These American Zionists are largely the product of a particular era. Many were shaped by the terrifying days leading up to +the Six-Day War, when it appeared that Israel might be overrun, and by the bitter aftermath of the Yom Kippur War, when +much of the world seemed to turn against the Jewish state. In that crucible, Israel became their Jewish identity, often in +conjunction with the Holocaust, which the 1967 and 1973 wars helped make central to American Jewish life. These Jews +embraced Zionism before the settler movement became a major force in Israeli politics, before the 1982 Lebanon war, +before the first intifada. They fell in love with an Israel that was more secular, less divided, and less shaped by the culture, +politics, and theology of occupation. And by downplaying the significance of Avigdor Lieberman, the settlers, and Shas, +American Jewish groups allow these older Zionists to continue to identify with that more internally cohesive, more +innocent Israel of their youth, an Israel that now only exists in their memories. +But these secular Zionists aren't reproducing themselves. Their children have no memory of Arab armies massed on +Israel's border and of Israel surviving in part thanks to urgent military assistance from the United States. Instead, they +have grown up viewing Israel as a regional hegemon and an occupying power. As a result, they are more conscious than +their parents of the degree to which Israeli behavior violates liberal ideals, and less willing to grant Israel an exemption +because its survival seems in peril. Because they have inherited their parents' liberalism, they cannot embrace their +uncritical Zionism. Because their liberalism is real, they can see that the liberalism of the American Jewish establishment +is fake. +To sustain their uncritical brand of Zionism, therefore, America's Jewish organizations will need to look elsewhere to +replenish their ranks. They will need to find young American. Jews who have come of age during the West Bank +occupation but are not troubled by it. And those young American Jews will come disproportionately from the +Orthodox world. +Because they marry earlier, intermarry less, and have more children, Orthodox Jews are growing rapidly as a share of the +American Jewish population. According to a 2006 American Jewish Committee (AJC) survey, while Orthodox Jews make +up only 12 percent of American Jewry over the age of sixty, they constitute 34 percent between the ages of eighteen and +twenty-four. For America's Zionist organizations, these Orthodox youngsters are a potential bonanza. In their yeshivas +they learn devotion to Israel from an early age; they generally spend a year of religious study there after high school, and +often know friends or relatives who have immigrated to Israel. The same AJC study found that while only 16 percent of +non-Orthodox adult Jews under the age of forty feel ""very close to Israel,"" among the Orthodox the figure is 79 percent. As +secular Jews drift away from America's Zionist institutions, their Orthodox counterparts will likely step into the breach. The +Orthodox ""are still interested in parochial Jewish concerns,"" explains Samuel Heilman, a sociologist at the City University +of New York. ""They are among the last ones who stayed in the Jewish house, so they now control the lights."" +But it is this very parochialism—a deep commitment to Jewish concerns, which often outweighs more universal ones— +that gives Orthodox Jewish Zionism a distinctly illiberal cast. The 2006 AJC poll found that while 60 percent of non- +Orthodox American Jews under the age of forty support a Palestinian state, that figure drops to 25 percent among the +Orthodox. In 2009, when Brandeis University's Theodore Sasson asked American Jewish focus groups about Israel, he +found Orthodox participants much less supportive of dismantling settlements as part of a peace deal. Even more tellingly, +Reform, Conservative, and unaffiliated Jews tended to believe that average Palestinians wanted peace, but had been ill- +served by their leaders. Orthodox Jews, by contrast, were more likely to see the Palestinian people as the enemy, and to +deny that ordinary Palestinians shared any common interests or values with ordinary Israelis or Jews. +Orthodox Judaism has great virtues, including a communal warmth and a commitment to Jewish learning unmatched in +the American Jewish world. (I'm biased, since my family attends an Orthodox synagogue.) But if current trends continue, +the growing influence of Orthodox Jews in America's Jewish communal institutions will erode even the liberal-democratic +veneer that today covers American Zionism. In 2002, America's major Jewish organizations sponsored a large Israel +solidarity rally on the Washington Mall. Up and down the east coast, yeshivas shut down for the day, swelling the +estimated Orthodox share of the crowd to close to 70 percent. When the then Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul +Wolfowitz told the rally that ""innocent Palestinians are suffering and dying as well,"" he was booed. +America's Jewish leaders should think hard about that rally. Unless they change course, it portends the future: an +American Zionist movement that does not even feign concern for Palestinian dignity and a broader American Jewish +population that does not even feign concern for Israel. My own children, given their upbringing, could as easily end up +among the booers as among Luntz's focus group. Either prospect fills me with dread. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770567 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770567 Date: 08/31/2015 +In 2004, in an effort to prevent weapons smuggling from Egypt, Israeli tanks and bulldozers demolished hundreds of +houses in the Rafah refugee camp in the southern Gaza Strip.

""For the first time we shall be the majority living with a minority,"" Knesset +member Pinchas Lavon declared in 1948, ""and we shall be called upon to provide an example and prove how Jews live +with a minority."" +But the message of the American Jewish establishment and its allies in the Netanyahu government is exactly the +opposite: since Jews are history's permanent victims, always on the knife-edge of extinction, moral responsibility is a +luxury Israel does not have. Its only responsibility is to survive. As former Knesset speaker Avraham Burg writes in his +remarkable 2008 book, The Holocaust Is Over; We Must Rise From Its Ashes, ""Victimhood sets you free."" +This obsession with victimhood lies at the heart of why Zionism is dying among America's secular Jewish young. It simply +bears no relationship to their lived experience, or what they have seen of Israel's. Yes, Israel faces threats from Hezbollah +and Hamas. Yes, Israelis understandably worry about a nuclear Iran. But the dilemmas you face when you possess +dozens or hundreds of nuclear weapons, and your adversary, however despicable, may acquire one, are not the +dilemmas of the Warsaw Ghetto. The year 2010 is not, as Benjamin Netanyahu has claimed, 1938. The drama of Jewish +victimhood—a drama that feels natural to many Jews who lived through 1938, 1948, or even 1967—strikes most of +today's young American Jews as farce. +But there is a different Zionist calling, which has never been more desperately relevant. It has its roots in Israel's +Independence Proclamation, which promised that the Jewish state ""will be based on the precepts of liberty, justice and +peace taught by the Hebrew prophets,"" and in the December 1948 letter from Albert Einstein, Hannah Arendt, and others +to The New York Times, protesting right-wing Zionist leader Menachem Begin's visit to the United States after his party's +militias massacred Arab civilians in the village of Deir Yassin. It is a call to recognize that in a world in which Jewish +fortunes have radically changed, the best way to memorialize the history of Jewish suffering is through the ethical use of +Jewish power. +For several months now, a group of Israeli students has been traveling every Friday to the East Jerusalem neighborhood +of Sheikh Jarrah, where a Palestinian family named the Ghawis lives on the street outside their home of fifty-three years, +from which they were evicted to make room for Jewish settlers. Although repeatedly arrested for protesting without a +permit, and called traitors and self-haters by the Israeli right, the students keep coming, their numbers now swelling into +the thousands. What if American Jewish organizations brought these young people to speak at Hillel? What if this was the +face of Zionism shown to America's Jewish young? What if the students in Luntz's focus group had been told that their +generation faces a challenge as momentous as any in Jewish history: to save liberal democracy in the only Jewish state +on earth? +""Too many years I lived in the warm embrace of institutionalized elusiveness and was a part of it,"" writes Avraham Burg. ""I +was very comfortable there."" I know; I was comfortable there too. But comfortable Zionism has become a moral +abdication. Let's hope that Luntz's students, in solidarity with their counterparts at Sheikh Jarrah, can foster an +uncomfortable Zionism, a Zionism angry at what Israel risks becoming, and in love with what it still could be. Let's hope +they care enough to try. +—May 12, 2010 . +Peter Beinart is Associate Professor of Journalism and Political Science at the City University of New York, a Senior +Fellow at the New America Foundation, and Senior Political Writer for The Daily Beast.

Confined behind the elaborate firewalls of +authoritarian regimes such as China and Iran, they find their rights to expression threatened online and off-- by +elaborate systems of monitoring and censorship and by harsh laws that punish bloggers with imprisonment or +even death. +In January, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton spoke powerfully in support of Internet freedom, saying, +""We stand for a single Internet where all of humanity has equal access to knowledge and ideas. And we +recognize that the world's information infrastructure will become what we and others make of it."" +Since then, the State Department has brought the issue of online freedom to the table in its diplomacy around +the world and joined with Internet providers and social media companies to foster public-private partnership in +Internet freedom. Such collaboration is key, since authoritarian regimes so often contract out the daily work of +censorship to private companies. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770580 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770580 Date: 08/31/2015 +Congress, too, has showed commitment to openness online, allocating $35 million in funding between the 2009 +and 2010 budgets for work that promotes Internet freedom.

Yes, there is no silver bullet to guarantee freedom on the Internet. But it is possible to do +great good with available funds. Investing in censorship-circumvention techniques like those that powered +Tehran's ""Twitter revolution"" in June 2009 could have a tremendous, measurable impact. +Although this solution is not without its problems -- the best-known provider of this software is the Falun Gong- +affiliated Global Internet Freedom consortium, and users behind China's Great Firewall may mistrust the +technology of a group their government has banned -- the State Department must seriously consider channeling +funds to organizations that have demonstrated great potential to make a difference. +The State Department is attempting a more holistic approach to Internet freedom, spreading funds across a +variety of projects. Monitoring the efficacy of chosen solutions and rewarding those that produce results will be +essential as this program continues. +A cyberspace without walls or barriers, where people can assemble and express themselves freely, without fear +of censorship or imprisonment, will make the world safer for the United States and for democracies everywhere. +Continued public-private partnership, prioritization of Internet freedom in diplomacy and the wise deployment +of allocated funds will move this ideal closer to reality. +Michael H.

KOUCHNER in Le Monde re Internet freedom +The below by Kouchner is worth reading if you haven't seen it. +The Internet: a critical international policy issue, by Bernard Kouchner (May 10, 2010) +In 2015, three and a half billion people - half of mankind - will have access to the Internet. There has never been +such a revolution in the freedom of communication and the freedom of expression. But how will this new medium +be used? What new distortions and obstacles will the enemies of the Internet come up with? +Modern technology leads to the best and the worst. Extremist, racist and defamatory websites and blogs +disseminate odious opinions in real time. They have made the Internet into a weapon of war and hate. Websites +are attacked and Internet users are recruited through chatrooms for destructive plots. Violent movements are +infiltrating social networks to spread propaganda and false information. +It is very hard for democracies to control them. I do not subscribe to the naive belief that a new technology, +however efficient and powerful it may be, is bound by nature to advance liberty on all fronts. +Yet, all the same, the distortions are the exception rather than the rule. The Internet is above all the most +fantastic means of breaking down the walls and boundaries that close us off from each other. For the oppressed +peoples, who have been deprived of their right to self-expression and the right to choose their own future, the +Internet provides power beyond their wildest hopes. In minutes, news and images recorded on a telephone can +be disseminated worldwide in cyberspace. It is increasingly difficult the hide a public demonstration, an act of +repression or a violation of human rights. +In authoritarian and repressive countries, mobile telephones and the Internet have given rise to public opinion +and civil society. They have also given citizens a critical means of expression, despite all the restrictions. +However, the temptation to repress free expression is always present. The number of countries that censor the +Internet, that monitor web users and punish them for their opinions, is increasing at an alarming rate. The +Internet can be used against citizens. It can be a formidable intelligence-gathering tool to spot potential +dissidents. Some regimes are already acquiring increasingly sophisticated surveillance technology. +If all of those who are attached to human rights and democracy refused to compromise their principles and used +the Internet to defend freedom of expression, this kind of repression would be much more difficult. I am not +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770593 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770593 Date: 08/31/2015 +talking about absolute freedom that opens the door to all sorts of abuses. Nobody is promoting that. Instead, I'm +talking about real freedom, which is based on the principle of respecting human dignity and human rights. +In the last few years, multilateral institutions, such as the Council of Europe, and non-governmental +organisations, such as Reporters Without Borders, along with thousands of individuals around the world, have +made a strong commitment to these issues. This is proof, if proof were needed, that this issue does not pit the +West against the rest of the world. No fewer than 180 countries meeting for the World Summit on the +Information Society acknowledged that the Universal Declaration of Human Rights applies fully to the Internet, +especially Article 19, which establishes freedom of expression and freedom of opinion. And yet, some fifty +countries fail to live up to their commitments. +For the occasion of World Press Freedom Day, I have brought together experts, NGO leaders, journalists, +business people and intellectuals this week. Their discussions have confirmed my conviction that the path we +want to take is the right one. I think that we should create an international instrument for monitoring the +commitments that governments have made and for calling them to task when they fail to live up to them. I think +we should provide assistance to cyberdissidents, who should get the same support as other victims of political +repression, and of the need to show our solidarity with them publicly, in close collaboration with the NGOs +working on these issues. I think that we should also discuss the wisdom of adopting a code of conduct regarding +the export of technologies for censoring the Internet and tracking web users. +These issues, along with others, such as the protection of personal data on the Internet and the right of digital +amnesty for everyone promoted by my colleague Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet, should be addressed within a +framework that brings together government, civil society and international experts. +Another project is close to my heart. It will be a long and difficult task to implement it, but it is critical. It is to +give the Internet a legal status that reflects its universality. One that recognizes it as an international space, so +that it will be more difficult for repressive governments to use the sovereignty argument against fundamental +freedoms. +This is a critical issue. I think that the battle of ideas has started with, on one side, the advocates of a universal +and open Internet, based on freedom of expression and freedom of association, on tolerance and respect for +privacy and, on the other side, those who want to transform the Internet into a multitude of spaces that are +closed off from each other to serve the purposes of a regime, propaganda and all forms of fanaticism. +Freedom of expression is""the foundation of all other freedoms"". Without it, there are no'free nations"", +Voltaire said. This spirit of the Enlightenment, which is universal, should run through the new media. The +defence of fundamental freedoms and human rights must be the priority for governance of the Internet. It is +everyone's business. +Bernard Kouchner, Minister for Foreign and European Affairs +This email is UNCLASSIFIED. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770593 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5654,C05770594,TONY BLAIR CONFIRMED FOR 8AM CALL.,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-05-19T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0080/DOC_0C05770594/C05770594.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Abedin, Huma ",,"Wednesday, May 19, 2010 6:37 AM",F-2014-20439,C05770594,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770594 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 6:37 AM +To: H +Subject Tony blair confirmed for 8am call. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770594 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5655,C05770598,THE WESTERN FRONT,H,"Iscol, Zachary",218,2010-05-19T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0080/DOC_0C05770598/C05770598.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,The Western Front,,Zachary Iscol,Huma (Clinton) (Clinton) Abedin,"Wednesday, May 19, 2010 10:26 AM",F-2014-20439,C05770598,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Secretary Clinton and Huma! +Hope you're both well.

Large-scale expos, known +as ""registered expos,"" including Shanghai 2010, are held every five years; however, +Yeosu is an off-year ""recognized expo,"" and, as such, is shorter in length (three months +duration), smaller in scale, and has a narrower theme than registered expos. To date, 35 +countries have agreed to participate. The cost of U.S. participation has been tentatively +estimated at $10-15 million. +Since 1994, when Congress legislated that the Department may not expend funds +for international expos unless specifically authorized or appropriated, the U.S. has only +participated in one off-year expo: Lisbon 1998. Funding for the off-year Lisbon expo +came primarily through appropriated funds transferred to USIA from other federal +government agencies, with the remainder coming from private sector contributions. In +1999, Congress tightened restrictions by further legislating that no funds made available +to the Department by another federal agency may be obligated or expended for such +expo purposes without prior congressional notification. Since then, 100% private sector +funding has been sought for all U.S. Pavilions at world expos and no appropriations +have been requested from Congress. +ECA's Position +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770607 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770607 Date: 08/31/2015 +EAP's Position +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770607 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770607 Date: 08/31/2015 +UNCLAS SIFTED +Drafted by: ECA/PE/C — Catherine Pfaffenroth, 632-9362, 3/17/10 +Clearances: +ECA/PE +ECA/PE/C +EAP /FO +EAP/K +EAP/PD +L/F0. +L/PD +GPI +D (S) +S/P +Chris Miner +Len Korycki +Joseph Donovan +Dan Larsen +Jennifer Galt +James Thessin +Lone Nierenberg +Kris Balderston +Laura Rosenberger +Kristen Pisani +Pamela Park +James Green +Gabrielle Guimond +Patrick Kennedy +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770607 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5662,C05770608,LETTER TO HIS EXCELLENCY HAN DUK-SOO,"Duk-soo, Han","Clinton, Hillary Rodham",80,,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0080/DOC_0C05770608/C05770608.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05770608,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770608 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B5 +Dear Mr. Ambassador: +Sincerely yours, +Hillary Rodham Clinton +His Excellency +Han Duk-soo +Ambassador of the Republic of Korea +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770608 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5663,C05770609,LETTER TO HIS EXCELLENCY HAN DUK-SOO,"Duk-soo, Han","Clinton, Hillary Rodham",80,,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0080/DOC_0C05770609/C05770609.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,,,,,F-2014-20439,C05770609,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770609 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B5 +Dear Mr. Ambassador, +Sincerely, +Hillary Rodham Clinton +His Excellency +Han Duk-soo +Ambassador of the Republic of Korea +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770609 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5664,C05770610,SENATE FLOOR UPDATE,H,"Verma, Richard R",180,2010-05-19T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0080/DOC_0C05770610/C05770610.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Fw: Senate floor update,"H; Lew, Jacob J","Verma, Richard R ",,"Wednesday, May 19, 2010 11:15 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770610,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770610 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN FULL +From: Verma, Richard R +Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 11:15 PM +To: H; Lew, Jacob J +Subject: Fw: Senate floor update +From: Rademacher, Paul R +To: H_SeniorStaff +Sent: Wed May 19 19:47:42 2010 +Subject: Senate floor update +Senator Reid just announced the cloture vote on the Financial Regulations Bill will be tomorrow at +2:30. +He also said that the Supp will be the next bill up.

We could stop in Ecuador by leaving Peru early +Tuesday morning after the OAS GA. The Secretary could deliver her speech in Ecuador, visit w the President and arrive in +Colombia in the late afternoon. Delivering the speech in Quito would avoid upstaging the OASGA FMs in Lima. +The visit to Ecuador would advance already positive areas of cooperation, as well as underscore our desire to see Correa +succeed in achieving constructive institutional reform, while respecting and preserving democratic governance. Correa's +promise to reform Ecuador's political system and address social inequities resonates with a public disillusioned by +decades of corruption and political instability. His agenda is principally driven by nationalism, not anti-Americanism, and +although some of his economic policies mirror those of Venezuela, he is not following a recipe laid down by Chavez. +Despite its rhetoric, the Correa government has cooperated closely with the USG in many areas, including counter +narcotics, anti-corruption, and alternative development assistance. Although Ecuador can be a challenging partner, our +efforts to engage constructively with him are paying off. We had an excellent conversation during my April visit to +Quito, including an open and candid conversation on sensitive issues like freedom of the press and maintaining a +constructive dialogue with civil society. (The gift I gave him for his birthday, an edition of Living History signed by the +Secretary, had a strong positive impact on him. He said that his mother-- who lived much of her life in California is a +great admirer of the Secretary. ) Reporting after my meetings in Quito was very positive and seemed to indicate that +Correa is ready to move beyond the stale rhetoric surrounding the Colombia Defense Cooperation Agreement. Indeed, +there is a terrific opportunity to work tri-laterally with Peru, Ecuador and Colombia not only on counter drug matters- +- but also on environmental issues like deforestation and climate change given the enormous extension of the amazon +basin in those three countries. All three presidents welcomed the suggestion when I raised as a possibility. Working +with them helps to pull Ecuador away from Venezuela while helping to improve cooperation w Colombia. +In sum, a visit to Ecuador would add a sub-regional theme to the trip, engaging with the Andean countries in Lima, +Quito, and Bogota; and then with CARICOM in Barbados.

It is the conversation Secretary of Defense Robert Gates and Secretary +of State Hillary Clinton try to have each week when they're both in Washington, often in +the company of National Security Adviser Jim Jones. +In an administration dominated by a powerful White House staff, Clinton and Gates have +emerged as the giant exception and the only important center of gravity outside 1600 +Pennsylvania Avenue. +Their close relationship has been central to the unusual degree of agreement on critical +issues, most notably the Afghan surge but also a range of other initiatives, from increasing +the size of the State Department's foreign aid budget to imposing new sanctions on Iran. +""It's a phalanx,"" former Pentagon official Leslie Gelb said of the Clinton-Gates alliance. ""I +can't remember a really important issue where they have disagreed. They are both center- +right; they have their four feet firmly planted on that ground. And that is, they are not going +to open themselves up to serious attack from the right, whether it's Iraq or Afghanistan or +Iran or you name it."" +Gates, known inside the White House as ""Yoda,"" is unquestionably the most powerful +member of the Obama Cabinet — the only one with the muscle to push back. Clinton, +meanwhile, is the most popular, her approval ratings cruising well above Obama's own. +An alliance is good for each of them. +Clinton saves Gates from political isolation as a Republican in a Democratic administration +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770686 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770686 Date: 08/31/2015 +and has signed on to a policy agenda he has set, adding her voice to his demands for +more troops and her department's civilian resources to the war in Afghanistan. +Gates, for his part, has saved Clinton from a different kind of marginalization by a powerful +White House staff, which has a sometimes-rocky relationship with her own staff of +loyalists, a residue of thebitter 2008 campaign. He's offered her a potent back channel to +power and — some of her most political allies have told other Democrats — a path +forward inside the administration. +Gates, who has long signaled an eagerness to retire, just launched what appears to be his +final initiative, a tough push to scale back the Pentagon's gargantuan bureaucracy. +Clinton, with her hawkish image and ties to Gates and to military brass, would be his most +logical successor — and some of her most senior allies have begun quietly to float the +notion. +The two meet regularly, though talk of weekly lunches was disrupted by the aggressive +travel schedules both keep. They most recently lunched together April 26 at the State +Department, a source said, but meet almost weekly, along with Jones, at the White +House. The two are said to be personally compatible. Both, one source noted, are +Midwestern United Methodists. +Connecticut Rep. John Larson, chairman of the House Democratic Caucus, said Gates +and Clinton have briefed the caucus three times together and present a united front. ""The +overlap and the ease which they transition from point to point — very notable,"" he said. +""We have all Cabinet members move through the caucus. It's not always so notable that +they transition from point to point, seamlessly and are on the same page."" +Such a close alliance between the two leading members of a modern president's Cabinet +is hardly typical. +""A lot of presidents have had to spend quite a bit of time adjudicating disputes between +the Pentagon and Foggy Bottom,"" said Strobe Talbott, a State Department official under +President Bill Clinton. +More often, they're fighting their own wars. Some of the deepest intramural hatreds in +American government have run across the Potomac, a tradition embodied most recently +by Donald Rumsfeld and Colin Powell, secretaries of defense and state in the +administration of President George W. Bush, who famously did not get along. +""My sense is that each of them understands the way in which the other one's function can +help advance the cause,"" said Talbott. ""Bob Gates totally understands the need for a very +proactive and well-funded development policy in order to keep weak states from becoming +failed states."" +The relationship is, indeed, part of a pattern for Gates, one that's made him one of the +most successful and enduring government officials of the past half-century. A career CIA +analyst who served as deputy national security adviser under Brent Scowcroft in the +George H.W. Bush White House before becoming the first career officer to lead the spy +agency, Gates spent 13 years in academia before being named Rumsfeld's successor in +2006. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770686 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770686 Date: 08/31/2015 +Still, those who know Gates worried that after Obama made the, surprise decision to keep +him on at the Pentagon, he would inevitably be an outlier in a Democratic administration. +But the quick bond he formed with Hillary Clinton and others were part of a familiar +strategy. +""He's by nature an alliance builder,"" said a senior official from the Bush and Clinton +administrations. +Gates did not have a relationship with George W. Bush either when he took over from +Rumsfeld in 2006. But he had worked with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and +Stephen Hadley, Rice's successor as national security adviser during Bush's +administration. That helped him get along in the Cabinet, and he didn't stop there. +In contrast to Rumsfeld, who was dismissive of Capitol Hill, Gates courted key members +of Congress, particularly Sen. Carl Levin (D-Mich.), the chairman of the Senate Armed +Services Committee. After Levin brought up concerns about confirming Marine Gen. Peter +Pace for a second two-year term as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gates pulled +back on the nomination. +He has followed that pattern in the Obama administration. When Jones was taking knocks +in the press for being less powerful than his top deputies, Gates called on Washington +Post columnist David Ignatius, to defend Jones — a fellow supporter of the military and +someone in his age bracket — as ""the glue that holds this team together,"" a dexterous bit +of politics that allowed him to do Jones a favor while simultaneous capitalizing on what's +perceived as his bureaucratic weakness. +Some of Gates's admirers see the relationship with Hillary Clinton in a similar light and +argue that he's been able to use her to achieve his policy goals — and not vice versa. +""The reality is that no one, including the White House, is willing to cross Gates because +we desperately need him for political cover on everything, whether it be defense budget +reform, arms control or[Afghanistan and Pakistan] and Iraq,"" a Democratic foreign policy +official said, challenging a reporter to ""name me one issue where [Clinton] had a strong +viewpoint and then successfully maneuvered the administration in her direction."" +Pentagon spokesman Geoff Morrell dismissed the notion that Gates has used Clinton to +his advantage as ""complete nonsense."" +""Is this a mutually beneficial relationship? Sure, everyone benefits when the secretaries of +state and defense have a good working relationship. Are they using each other to advance +personal agendas? Absolutely not,"" he said. ""They happen to be very like-minded on +many issues. She is, as he often says, very lough-minded' — and he respects that about +her. I know it's not very juicy, but there's no secret alliance here. The fact is they simply +see eye to eye more often than not."" +Clinton, too, has experience in navigating the highest levels and of building unlikely +alliances. +""This replicates one of her most effective moves in the Senate, which was to figure out +who the power brokers were, study up on them and make sure she could work effectively +with them,"" said Heather Hurlburt, executive director of the National Security Network, a +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770686 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770686 Date: 08/31/2015 +Democratic group. +And if Gates has been a behind-the-scenes architect of policy, Clinton's role is more +public: She is ""one of the articulators of the overall strategy that we adopted"" on Iran and +China, Jones recently told Newsweek. +Some critics of Obama's policy, though, see the two hawks as having pulled the president +to the right. The two were particularly instrumental in making the case internally for an +Afghan troop surge, and they were close enough to sell it jointly, appearing together on +television to defend the plan. +Just last week, Clinton and Gates testified before the Senate Foreign Relations +Committee to validate the administration's commitment to modernize the nation's nuclear +arsenal, and to preserve the ability to design new warhead components if needed. +The administration's stance was a victory for Gates, as the Pentagon appears to have +fought hard to keep the nuclear capacity — reportedly over the objections of other +members of the administration's inner circle, including Vice President Joe Biden. +Ironically, close observers say, the chief diplomat has emerged, if anything, as blunter and +more hawkish than the diplomatic secretary of defense. After an attempted bombing in +New York's Times Square appeared to have links to the Pakistani Taliban, Clinton publicly +warned of ""very severe consequences"" should an attack be traced back to Pakistan. +Gates took a far milder line. +""It's their country,"" he said. ""They remain in the driver's seat, and they have their foot on +the accelerator.""

Traveling with you will be +Kitty DiMartino, Joe Mellott, Mark Davidson, and GSEC's LTC Eric Schoennauer. Dana Smith will fly in from the Media +Hub in Dubai to meet you in Doha. +Key events: +Dinner with Al Jazeera (AJ) staff: AJ Director General Wadah Khanfar will host a dinner on May 1 with senior Al staff, +including AJ English Managing Director Tony Burman. We expect 7 people on the Al side and 6 on ours. (The dinner is +schedule for 8pm in a private room in the Four Seasons; post is making reservations for the party to stay in the same +hotel.) +Meeting with AJ Board Members at AJ Headquarters: This will give you an opportunity to engage the Qatari leadership +of the network. Discussions topics should include the mid-May Washington visit by some Al Board representatives. We +expect Wadah Khanfar to also participate in this meeting. +(TBC) Meeting with Prime Minister Hamad bin Jasim bin Jabir al-Thani (HBJ): As PM, HBJ is the ultimate Qatari authority +on Al. The meeting will also allow you to raise bi-lateral engagement issues as necessary. We expect to know in a few +days if HBJ will be available. +Meetings with CENTCOM: You will meet with CENTCOM staff at Al Udeid airbase just outside of Doha. They will brief +you on their .within their AOR, but with particular focus on activities in B1 +1.4(D) +MEDIA: +Feature on AJ Arabic: 15 minute ""feature"" piece filmed at AJ Studios on the Administration's commitment to +engagement with Muslim communities worldwide.

We can expect you to also get questions on PD programs in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq. You will be +interviewed by one of Al's ""top"" journalists; exactly who is still to be determined. The interview will be in English with +simultaneous interpretation into Arabic. It will likely air a number of times on AJ. +Feature on AJ English: This would be a second 15 minute ""feature"" piece similar to the one for Al Arabic. If we are +pressed for time we can consider just doing the Al Arabic feature. +Roundtable with local Qatari media: This will include journalists from a number of local Qatari media outlets. This is +another opportunity to talk about the Administration's commitment to engagement, but with a more targeted focus on +bilateral engagement and exchange programs. +Note — Wadah Khanfar has been closely engaged on, if not driving, the portions of your program that deal with Al.

H)t!..re LH. oclic■/ was intensely debated in the FT last week. In this Exchange, I want to examine what is going on +in '.he ..tS and, in particular, what is going on inside the Republican party. This matters for the US and, because the US +remains the world's most important economy, it also matters greatly for the world. +My reading of contemporary Republican thinking is that there is no chance of any attempt to arrest adverse long-term +fiscal trends should they return to power. Moreover, since the Republicans have no interest in doing anything sensible, the +Democrats will gain nothing from trying to do much either. That is the lesson Democrats have to draw from the Clinton +era's successful frugality, which merely gave George W. Bush the opportunity to make massive (irresponsible and +unsustainable) tax cuts. In practice, then, nothing will be done. +Indeed, nothing may be done even if a genuine fiscal crisis were to emerge. According to my friend, 5rpc*. Uartiett, a +highly informed, if jaundiced, observer, some ""conservatives"" (in truth, extreme radicals) think a federal default would be +an effective way to bring public spending they detest under control. It should be noted, in passing, that a federal default +would surely create the biggest financial crisis in world economic history. +To understand modern Republican thinking on fiscal policy, we need to go back to perhaps the most politically brilliant +(albeit economically unconvincing) idea in the history of fiscal policy: ""supply-side economics"". Supply-side economics +liberated conservatives from any need to insist on fiscal rectitude and balanced budgets. Supply-side economics said that +one could cut taxes and balance budgets, because incentive effects would generate new activity and so higher revenue. +The political genius of this idea is evident. Supply-side economics transformed Republicans from a minority party into a +majority party. It allowed them to promise lower taxes, lower deficits and, in effect, unchanged spending. Why should +people not like this combination? Who does not like a free lunch? +How did supply-side economics bring these benefits? First, it allowed conservatives to ignore deficits. They could argue +that, whatever the impact of the tax cuts in the short run, they would bring the budget back into balance, in the longer run. +Second, the theory gave an economic justification — the argument from incentives - for lowering taxes on politically +important supporters. Finally, if deficits did not, in fact, disappear, conservatives could fall back on the ""starve the beast"" +theory: deficits would create a fiscal crisis that would force the government to cut spending and even destroy the hated +welfare state. +In this way, the Republicans were transformed from a balanced-budget party to a tax-cutting party. This innovative stance +proved highly politically effective, consistently putting the Democrats at a political disadvantage. It also made the +Republicans de facto Keynesians in a de facto Keynesian nation. Whatever the rhetoric, I have long considered the US +the advanced world's most Keynesian nation — the one in which government (including the Federal Reserve) is most +expected to generate healthy demand at all times, largely because jobs are, in the US, the only safety net for those of +working age. +True, the theory that cuts would pay for themselves has proved altogether wrong. That this might well be the case was +evident: cutting tax rates from, say, 30 per cent to zero would unambiguously reduce revenue to zero. This is not to argue +there were no incentive effects. But they were not large enough to offset the fiscal impact of the cuts (see, on this, +Wikioedial and a nice chart from Paul Krugniarl +Indeed, Greg Mankiw, no less, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers under George W. Bush, has responded to +the view that broad-based tax cuts would pay for themselves, as follows: ""I did not find such a claim credible, based on +the available evidence. I never have, and I still don't."" Indeed, he has referred to those who believe this as ""charlatans and +cranks"". Those are his words, not mine, though I agree. They apply, in force, to contemporary Republicans, alas, +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770731 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770731 Date: 08/31/2015 +Since the fiscal theory of supply-side economics did not work, the tax-cutting eras of Ronald Reagan and George H. Bush +and again of George W. Bush saw very substantial rises in ratios of federal debt to gross domestic product. Under +Reagan and the first Bush, the ratio of public debt to GDP went from 33 per cent to 64 per cent. It fell to 57 per cent under +Bill Clinton. It then rose to 69 per cent gilder the second ( +. +..73e +.proe Bush. Equally, tax cuts in the era of George W. Bush, +wars and the economic crisis account for almost all the dire fiscal outlook for the next ten years (see the Center on Budget +and Policy Priorities). +Today's extremely high deficits are also an inheritance from Bush-era tax-and-spending policies and the financial crisis, +also, of course, inherited by the present administration. Thus, according to the international Monetary Fund the impact of +discretionary stimulus on the US fiscal deficit amounts to a cumulative total of 4.7 per cent of GDP in 2009 and 2010, +while the cumuiative deficit over these years is forecast at 23.5 cer cent of GDP. In any case, the stimulus was certainly +too small, not too large. +The evidence shows, then, that contemporary conservatives (unlike those of old) simply do not think deficits matter, as +former vice-president Richard Cheney is recorted to have tolo forme,. treasury secretary Paul O'Neill. But this is not +because the supply-side theory of self-financing tax cuts, on which Reagan era tax cuts were justified, has worked, but +despite the fact it has not. The faith has outlived its economic (though not its political) rationale. +So, when Republicans assail the deficits under President Ot.)ama, are they to be taken seriously? Yes and no. Yes, they +are politically interested in blaming Mr Obama for deficits, since all is viewed fair in love and partisan politics. And yes, +they are, indeed, rhetorically opposed to deficits created by extra spending (although that did not prevent them from +enacting the unfunded prescription drug benefit, under President Bush). But no, it is not deficits themselves that worry +Republicans, but rather how they are caused: deficits caused by tax cuts are fine; but spending increases brought in by +Democrats are diabolical, unless on the military. +Indeed, this is precisely what John Ky:Lo +...rizonal. a_senior Republican senalcr, has just said: +""[Ylou should never raise taxes in order to cut taxes. Surely Congress has the authority, and it would be +right to — if we decide we want to cut taxes to spur the economy, not to have to raise taxes in order to +offset those costs. You do need to offset the cost of increased spending, and that's what Republicans +object to. But you should never have to offset the cost of a deliberate decision to reduce tax rates on +Americans"" +What conclusions should outsiders draw about the likely future of US fiscal policy? . +First, if Republicans win the mid-terms in November, as seems likely, they are surely going to come up with huge tax cut +proposals (probably well beyond extending the already unaffordable Bush-era tax cuts). +Second, the White House will probably veto these cuts, making itself even more Politically unpopular. +Third, some additional fiscal stimulus is, in fact, what the US needs, in the short term, even though across-the-board tax +cuts are an extremely inefficient way of providing it. +Fourth, the Republican proposals would not, alas, be short term, but dangerously long term, in their impact. +Finally, with one party indifferent to deficits, provided they are brought about by tax cuts, and the other party relatively +fiscally responsible (well, everything is relative, after all), but opposed to spending cuts on core programmes, US fiscal +policy is paralysed. I may think the policies of the la L:: +.._:agvernscei:jt dangerously austere, but at least it can act. +This is extraordinarily dangerous. The danger does not arise from the fiscal deficits of today, but the attitudes to fiscal +policy, over the long run, of one of the two main parties. Those radical conservatives (a small minority, I hope) who want +to destroy the credit of the US federal government may succeed. If so, that would be the end of the US era of global +dominance. The destruction of fiscal credibility could be the outcome of the policies of the party that considers itself the +most patriotic. +In sum, a great deal of trouble lies ahead, for the US and the world. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770731 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5703,C05770733,ARAB LEAGUE FOLLOW-UP COMMITTEE,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J",87,2010-07-26T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0088/DOC_0C05770733/C05770733.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,,H,"Sullivan, Jacob J ",,"Monday, July 26, 2010 3:59 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770733,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,I mistakenly wrote in your notes that it was tomorrow — it is of course Thursday.,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770733 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN +FULL +From: Sullivan, Jacob J +Sent: Monday, July 26, 2010 3:59 PM +To: H +Subject Arab League Follow-up Committee +I mistakenly wrote in your notes that it was tomorrow — it is of course Thursday. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770733 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5704,C05770735,(SYDNEY MORNING HERALD) ABBAS READY FOR DIRECT TALKS WITH ISRAEL,H,"Abedin, Huma",81,2010-07-26T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0088/DOC_0C05770735/C05770735.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,(Sydney Morning Herald) Abbas ready for direct talks with Israel,,"Abedin, Huma ",SES-O_Shift-III,"Monday, July 26, 2010 5:13 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770735,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN FULL,,"UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770735 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN +FULL +From: Abedin, Huma +Sent: Monday, July 26, 2010 5:13 PM +To: +Subject Fw: (Sydney Morning Herald) Abbas ready for direct talks with Israel +From: Casteel, Ezra A +To: NEWS-NEA; NEWS-Mahogany +Cc: SES-O_Shift-III +Sent: Mon Jul 26 17:04:54 2010 +Subject: (Sydney Morning Herald) Abbas ready for direct talks with Israel +Palestinian President Abbas said he was ready for direct negotiations with Israel, following Prime Minister Benjamin +Netanyahu's accusations that the Palestinians are avoiding the talks.

Because the key +Scottish government, British government and BP witnesses declined to testify at the hearing scheduled for Thursday, +Menendez and his colleagues announced that the hearing date will be re-set and that they will work with the Foreign +Relations Committee to launch an investigation into the matter and provide the basis for the re-scheduled hearing. +Senator Menendez explained the new plan: ""We are at a place where no witness of consequence has the courage to +step forward and clear the air — they would prefer to sweep this under the rug. Because of this stonewalling, we +are shifting our efforts to a longer-term, multi-dimensional inquiry into the release of al-Megrahi. The hearing will +be postponed and rescheduled, and it will be coupled with an investigation into al-Megrahi's release. In declining +our witness request, the Scottish government did offer to provide answers to further questions we may have. We +appreciate that, and will take them up on that offer. We will work with the Foreign Relations Committee to launch +the investigation into this matter — asking the pointed questions that we would have in person, and requesting +additional documents. Our requests will be frequent and public — we don't intend for this issue to be forgotten or +swept under the rug. When our information is more complete, we will release it publicly, hold the hearing and +discuss what we have found."" +Senator Lautenberg said: ""I will not rest until there is a clear and credible record of what led to the early release of +the Lockerbie bomber. In the last year, troubling questions surrounding the circumstances of al-Megrahi's +release have come to the surface. The families of the victims of Pan Am 103 have already suffered so much, and +the release of this convicted terrorist has only amplified their anguish and grief. For their sake, we must get to +the bottom of these questions. Those who commit vicious acts of terrorism have to know that they will be +punished without compassion, and a rigorous investigation will help send that message."" +Senator Gillibrand said: ""It has become clear that there is a great deal of information already in the public domain +that has not been fully investigated. Already we have seen an abundance of circumstantial evidence that justice +and the international fight against terror were compromised to serve the interests of BP and possibly other +companies. The only independent review of this matter was done by the Scottish Parliament, which said they +were 'extremely concerned' about the basis on which compassionate release was granted. The Scottish review +was also limited in scope and did not examine the external influences on Al-Megrahi's release. Our investigation +will review past evidence and new information that we intend to gather in a new light, so that we can answer +questions about whether BP tried to free Al-Megrahi. What has happened here is a total miscarriage of +justice. Al-Megrahi should never have been released, and we must answer exactly why this happened."" +Senator Schumer said: ""It is time for the UK and Scottish Governments to prove they are part of the solution here +and not part of the problem. Day after day, week after week, more and more questions get raised and we need all +parties to this controversy involved in answering them. We will continue in our quest for the truth so that justice +can be served and the families of the victims can have their faith in the legal process restored."" +Invited to the hearing, but declining to appear were: Scottish Justice Secretary Kenny MacAskill (made the +decision to release al-Megrahi), Dr. Andrew Fraser (Scottish prison system doctor cited by MacAskill as responsible for +the medical prognosis that led to the release), Jack Straw, the former British Justice Secretary (has acknowledged +that his government pushed for al-Megrahi's release as part of a prisoner transfer agreement), BP CEO Tony Hayward +(directly involved in negotiations with Libya), and Sir Mark Allen (former British MI6 hired by BP and acted as a liaison +between the company and the Libyan and British governments). +# # # +Afshin Mohamadi +Communications Director +Sen.

Berger +Samuel R. Berger, chair of the global strategy firm Albright Stonebridge Group, served as national security advisor to +President Clinton from 1997 to 2001. +President Obama's National Security Strategy, released by the White House on Thursday, tackles a delicate but +unavoidable question: How do we respond to new and old security challenges in an era of financial distress at home and +a reordering of political power abroad? +For some time now, it has been clear that the definition of U.S. national security strategy needs rethinking. The +September 11 attacks, global economic crisis, cyber-terror threats and even the environmental catastrophe in the Gulf +underscore that the challenges America faces in 2010 have changed even from just a decade ago. And while America's +military supremacy is certainly not at risk, new international arrangements - such as the shift from the G-7 club of +powerful nations to the G-20, which incorporates emerging nations from China to Brazil - are needed so that the costs +and benefits of a stable international order are shared. The United States cannot solve most global threats without +others, nor should we bear the burden alone. +Enter the National Security Strategy. In my experience, these congressionally mandated documents can easily become +laborious and impenetrable, or mere compendiums of bureaucratic pleading from various parts of the government. +(Make sure you do right by Japan! Don't step on the Pentagon!) The challenge, which President Clinton insisted upon to +me and his other advisers, is to provide a strategic framework that is clarifying to the rest of the world and informs +administration decision makers up and down the line. It's not a blueprint for action, but a means to convey the +president's principles and priorities. +In Obama's case, the new sober and comprehensive 52-page strategy incorporates the new realities and breaks with +past strategies in several key respects. But it also reflects an understanding that we face enduring challenges - nuclear +proliferation, terrorism and regional conflicts - for which the best response is a return to fundamentals. +One such fundamental is the strength of our economy. At a time when the after-effects of a financial crisis and the fiscal +burden of two long wars have raised fears of an overextended America, the administration makes a case for economic +and technological renewal as a crucial underpinning of U.S. security. The president made this case in his West Point +speech last weekend. ""At no time in human history,"" he said, ""has a nation of diminished economic vitality maintained +its military and political primacy."" +Another fundamental challenge is arms control and nuclear proliferation. By seeking strategic arms cuts with Russia, the +president has returned to a long bipartisan tradition that languished during the prior administration. And by convening a +global summit on securing nuclear material this spring, Obama has given new urgency and global purchase to the effort +started in 1991 when Sens. Sam Nunn and Richard Lugar first initiated a program to lock down nuclear materials. +On terrorism, the strategy builds on the past, but breaks with it as well. Presidents Clinton, Bush and Obama each have +deployed all of America's tools: military power, homeland defense, law enforcement, sanctions, intelligence and +vigorous efforts to cut off terrorist financing. But the critical difference in the Obama strategy is that it rejects the Global +War on Terror lens through which the prior administration viewed the challenge. ""This is not a global war against a tactic +- terrorism - or a religion - Islam,"" the new strategy says. ""We are at war with a specific network, al-Qaeda and its +terrorist affiliates."" +This sharper focus avoids alienating many in the Muslim world, ensures the support of key allies who never accepted the +broader construct and avoids the overreactions that led us to forsake the fight against al-Qaeda fight in Afghanistan and +turn our efforts to the unrelated threat from Saddam Hussein's Iraq. +In perhaps the most dramatic departure from the strategy of its predecessor, the Obama administration has restored a +less provocative policy on the use of military force. In the 2002 national security strategy, President Bush articulated the +rationale for preemptive war just weeks before seeking a U.N. resolution to invade Iraq. The new strategy restores the +principles that have guided administrations for decades: the use of force should be a last resort, should weigh all the +costs and benefits, and should have as much international support as possible. The administration reserves the right to +act unilaterally - for example against al-Qaeda and its allies - but resurrects the principle President Clinton often +described as ""together where possible, alone where necessary."" +President Obama's critics have focused on his diplomatic engagement with hostile states like Iran and North Korea. The +President sets forth his rationale: ""to create opportunities to resolve differences, strengthen the international +community's support for our actions, learn about the intentions and nature of closed regimes, and plainly demonstrate +to the public within those nations that their governments are to blame for their isolation."" +In the case of Iran, Washington's outstretched hand has not resulted in Iran's compliance. But attempts to engage have +helped ensure that the world's attention is focused on Iran's intransigence rather than Washington's refusal to +negotiate. +Without a doubt, there are gaps between principle and practice. Despite the Obama administration's stated goal of +doubling exports in the next five years, it has not put its muscle behind trade agreements with South Korea, Panama and +Colombia. And the clarity of its call to respect human rights has at times been muted in the face of tough realities. +Sixteen months into this administration there has been much progress, but many of the true tests of this strategy lie +ahead. +In the strategy's conclusions, the Obama administration evokes an even earlier era, calling for both political parties to +restore the cooperation and common purpose so crucial to our success during the dark days of the Cold War. Despite +the intense debates at the time over nuclear arms control, Central America and détente, nearly all American supported +the containment of communism. +In that same spirit, the administration's framework deserves broad bipartisan support. We can and should argue out our +differences over detention of prisoners, methods to disarm dangerous states, how hard to push for democratic rights, or +the costs of climate change legislation. But at the same time, we can rally around the overriding U.S. foreign policy goals +spelled out in the strategy: renewing our economy at home to ensure leadership abroad; defeating al-Qaeda; succeeding +in Afghanistan; preventing nuclear proliferation; curbing climate change; and promoting an international order of +enlightened self-interest, economic prosperity and the fundamental values upon which America is based.","RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Samuel Berger +Sent: Saturday, May 29, 2010 2:08 PM +To: +Subject: FW: SRB op-ed in Wash Post Outlook section Sunday +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770819 Date: 08/31/2015 +HRC: Below is an oped on the National Security Strategy I wrote for tomorrow's Outlook. +Unfortunately, they give it a horrible title, but I think the piece turned out alright. +Best, Sandy +By Samuel R.

Provocations, moral defamation, planting of drugs and weapons in student residences as happened in +2004 before the election could be next. +The most effective defense is speaking out. +I am grateful for your solicitude and wanted to ask for two things. +1 To ask the Secretary of State to bring this to the attention of the president and vice president and to do what +she can in our defense. +2. to help us get the story to some of the main media outlets: New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street +Journal, CNN, etc. One story by any of these for us and for the people in Ukraine that have the courage to +speak the truth is invaluable. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770829 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770829 Date: 08/31/2015 +We have had some great support already.

One of his less +known heroic deeds is his saving a soldier from across Syrian lines in the Yom Kippur War in 1973. +Sirens will sound throughout Israel for one minute at 8 p.m. (1 p.m. EDT) Sunday night to mark the beginning of Memorial +Day for 22,682 Fallen Soldiers and 2,431 victims of Arab terrorist attacks following the re-establishment of the State of +Israel after 2,000 years. Another 1,500 civilians were killed between 1860 and the 1948 War for Independence, when +seven Arab nations attacked the fledging, newly declared state just three years after the Holocaust ended. +On Monday morning, a two-minute siren will sound at 11 a.m. (4 a.m. EDT).

The only viable solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is an agreement, +negotiated between the parties, that ends the occupation that began in 1967 and fulfills the aspirations of both parties +for independent homelands through two states for two peoples, Israel and an independent, contiguous, and viable state +of Palestine, living side by side in peace and security. We call again on our international partners — both inside and +outside this Council —to promote an atmosphere of cooperation between the parties and throughout the entire region. +Thank you, Mr. President. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770851 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770851 Date: 08/31/2015 +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770851 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5767,C05770852,SCHEDULE,H,"Valmoro, Lona J",124,2010-05-31T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0081/DOC_0C05770852/C05770852.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Schedule,"H; Abedin, Huma","Valmoro, Lona J ",,"Monday, May 31, 2010 6:09 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770852,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"MS, tomorrow you were scheduled to have a pre-brief prior to the Netanyahu meeting which included Senator Mitchell. +Would you like to still see him (he was scheduled around 12:30pm)? +Lona Valmoro +Special Assistant to the Secretary of State +direct)","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770852 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Valmoro, Lona J +Sent: Monday, May 31, 2010 6:09 PM +To: H; Abedin, Huma +Subject: Schedule +MS, tomorrow you were scheduled to have a pre-brief prior to the Netanyahu meeting which included Senator Mitchell. +Would you like to still see him (he was scheduled around 12:30pm)? +Lona Valmoro +Special Assistant to the Secretary of State +direct) +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770852 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5768,C05770853,SCHEDULE,H,"Valmoro, Lona J",124,2010-05-31T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0081/DOC_0C05770853/C05770853.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: Schedule,,"Valmoro, Lona J ",,"Monday, May 31, 2010 6:12 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770853,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Sounds good, ty. +Lona Valmoro +S • ecial Assistant to the Secretary of State +(direct)","UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770853 Date: 08/31/2015 +RELEASE IN PART +B6 +From: Valmoro, Lona J +Sent: Monday, May 31, 2010 6:12 PM +To: +Subject Re: Schedule +Sounds good, ty. +Lona Valmoro +S • ecial Assistant to the Secretary of State +(direct) +Original Message +From: H +To: Valmoro, Lona J +Sent: Mon May 31 18:10:13 2010 +Subject: Re: Schedule +Yes, I would. +Original Message ---- +From: Valmoro, Lona J +To: H; Abedin, Huma +Sent: Mon May 31 18:08:33 2010 +Subject: Schedule +MS, tomorrow you were scheduled to have a pre-brief prior to the Netanyahu meeting which included Senator Mitchell. +Would you like to still see him (he was scheduled around 12:30pm)? +Lona Valmoro +Special Assistant to the Secretary of State +(direct) +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770853 Date: 08/31/2015 + " +5769,C05770854,SCHEDULE,H,"Valmoro, Lona J",124,2010-05-31T04:00:00+00:00,2015-08-31T04:00:00+00:00,DOCUMENTS/HRCEmail_August_Web/IPS-0081/DOC_0C05770854/C05770854.pdf,F-2014-20439,Clinton_Email_August_Release,Re: Schedule,H,"Valmoro, Lona .1 ",,"Monday, May 31, 2010 6:57 PM",F-2014-20439,C05770854,08/31/2015,RELEASE IN PART,"Yes, it is now at 11:15am.

Judis +• August 12, 2010 I 12:00 am +On April 14, 2009, as Barack Obama's standing in the polls was beginning to slip, and as Tea Party demonstrators were +amassing in Washington for tax day protests, the president gave a lengthy address atGeorgetown University explaining the +""five pillars"" of his economic policies. The speech was intended to promote a memorable slogan for Obama's program that +would evoke comparisons with Theodore Roosevelt's Square Deal, Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal, and Lyndon Johnson's +Great Society. +Obama's contribution was to be the New Foundation. ""We must lay a new foundation for growth and prosperity—a +foundation that will move us from an era of borrow and spend to one where we save and invest,"" he declared. Obama +would repeat the phrase seven times that day and on many more occasions over the next months. At Obama's private +White House dinner with presidential historians that June, the historians were no more impressed than the public with +the New Foundation as a slogan. ""I don't think it's going to work,"" Robert Dallek warned. Doris Kearns Goodwin said it +sounded ""like a woman's girdle."" +One of these historians might have been able to forewarn Obama that the slogan had been unsuccessfully deployed by a +Democratic president once before. In his 1979 State of the Union address, Jimmy Carter began, ""Tonight, I want to +examine in a broad sense the state of our American Union—how we are building a new foundation for a peaceful and a +prosperous world."" Carter would use the phrase five times in the speech, including in its conclusion, where he asked +members of Congress to join him ""in building that new foundation."" Like Obama's effort, the phrase inspired, at most, a +few underwear jokes and was then forgotten. +Obama's evocation of Carter was obviously unintended—but the Man from Plains is indeed the specter now hanging over +his presidency. Of course, Obama has already accomplished more in his first 20 months than Jimmy Carter did during his +entire presidency. But there is a disturbing political resemblance between the two presidencies. Both men ran inspired +campaigns in which they positioned themselves above the scandals and partisan quarrels of their predecessors and +initially stirred hopes of a ""transformational"" presidency. But, as presidents, both men somehow failed to connect with +large parts of the electorate. +To be sure, there are a number of very specific reasons why Carter and Obama landed in political trouble. Both men +contended with rising unemployment—Carter with rampant inflation as well—and voters' approval of a president and his +party tend to track closely with changes in the economy. Carter faced friction in his own party and the rise of a powerful +business lobby, and Obama has dealt with a Republican Party that has frustrated his dreams of a post-partisan presidency. +Yet the most important reason for their difficulties—evident in their inept attempts to brand their programs—has been an +inability to develop a politics that resonates with the public. +In the United States, politics pivots around the allegiance of the middle class, even as its identity has changed from +yeoman farmers and mechanics to store clerks, office workers, x-ray technicians, and small business owners. They are, in +Bill Clinton's words, ""those who work hard and play by the rules."" They are the central characters in a populist rhetoric +that goes back to the early republic. It depicts the middle class as embattled and threatened either from forces below +(impoverished immigrants, welfare cheaters, ghetto rioters) or above (Wall Street speculators, state bureaucrats, K Street +lobbyists). Populism can be embraced by Glenn Beck or Tom Harkin. It is intrinsically neither left-wing nor right-wing. +Politicians, such as Franklin Roosevelt or Ronald Reagan, who found a way of using populism's appeal during downturns +have enjoyed success, while those who have spurned it have suffered accordingly. If, in circumstances like the present one, +you don't develop a populist politics, your adversaries will use populism to define you as an enemy of the people. That's +what Carter discovered during the stagflation of the late '70s. And that's what has happened in the last 20 months of the +Great Recession to Barack Obama and to the Democratic Party he leads. +Obama took office with widespread popular support, even among Republicans, and some of his first efforts, including the +$800 billion stimulus, initially enjoyed strong public favor. But that wide appeal began to dissipate by the late spring of +2009. Disillusion with Obama fueled the November defeat of Democratic gubernatorial candidates in New Jersey and +Virginia. By January 2010, it was a crucial factor in Republican Scott Brown's astonishing victory over Martha Coakley in +Massachusetts. +In the postmortem debate over these defeats, some Democrats have blamed Obama's dogged pursuit of health care reform +while the economy was hemorrhaging jobs. That may have been a factor, but the real damage was done earlier. What +doomed Obama politically was the way he dealt with the financial crisis in the first six months of his presidency. In an +atmosphere primed for a populist backlash, he allowed the right wing to define the terms. +As Obama was delivering his inaugural address, the financial crisis was already in full swing; and it was already apparent +that financial speculation, outright fraud, and irresponsible and sometimes illegal housing-loan practices had played a +very large role in precipitating the crisis. The public was up in arms. But, instead of rallying the public against the ""money +changers,"" as Roosevelt had done in his first inaugural, Obama, taking a leaf from Jimmy Carter's infamous ""malaise"" +speech, put the blame on the public as a whole. ""Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and +irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new +age,"" he declared. +Over the next month, Obama would periodically criticize bankers after embarrassing revelations—at various times calling +the bonuses they gave themselves ""shameful"" and an ""outrage""—but, after hearing complaints about his rhetoric from the +bankers, he would back off. At a private meeting on March 28 with 13 Wall Street CEOs, the president, his spokesman +Robert Gibbs said, ""emphasized that Wall Street needs Main Street and Main Street needs Wall Street."" And, in his +Georgetown speech, Obama returned to his theme of collective responsibility. The recession, Obama said, ""was caused by +a perfect storm of irresponsibility and poor decision-making that stretched from Wall Street to Washington to Main +Street."" +Obama's policy followed the same swerving course as his rhetoric. One week, he would favor harsh restrictions on bank +and insurance-company bonuses, but, the next week, he would waver; one week, he would support legislation allowing +bankruptcy judges to reduce the amount that homeowners threatened with foreclosure owed the banks; the next week, he +would fail to protest when bank lobbyists pressured the Senate to kill these provisions. But, more importantly, Obama—in +sharp contrast to Roosevelt in his first months—failed to push Congress to immediately enact new financial regulations or +even to set up a commission to investigate fraud. (When Congress finally appointed a commission in July 2009, Obama +and his party put a milquetoast Democratic politician, former California State Treasurer Philip Angelides, in charge of it.) +Obama's appointments also conveyed an impression that he wanted to let Wall Street off the hook. He appointed Timothy +Geithner to be treasury secretary. Geithner claimed that he was not part of Wall Street, but, in his capacity as president of +the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, he had served under a board of directors headed by JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie +Dimon. As New York Fed president, Geithner had been partly responsible for the decision to let Lehman Brothers go +under, for the unpopular tarp program, and for American International Group (MG) paying back its Wall Street creditors +with government money. Geithner chose as his chief of staff a former lobbyist for Goldman Sachs. Retiring Democratic +Senator Byron Dorgan told me, ""Most Americans were reading about the massive compensations and bailouts, and the +administration largely hired people from the culture of Wall Street."" +By the spring, Obama's apparent tilt to Wall Street had sparked a right-wing populist revolt in the country. The newly +formed Tea Party movement, Beck and Fox News, and a host of right-wing bloggers were leading the charge; but, in a less +extreme form, the general public shared their anger. In an early April New York Times/CBS News poll, the public +disapproved of Obama's aiding the banks by 58 percent to 33 percent. In this same poll, public approval of Obama's +handling of the economy began to fall. Pollsters who did focus groups also traced disillusionment with Obama's economic +policies to his handling of the financial crisis. +Congressman Barney Frank, who defends Obama's policies, acknowledges that the president's political difficulties began +with the revelation that MG, which had received $170 billion from the government, had paid out $165 billion in bonuses +to the division that had brought the company down. Geithner had known about the bonuses but insisted there were no +legal grounds to block them. (It then came out that Geithner had pressured Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris +Dodd to insert a provision in the stimulus bill that protected the bonuses.) ""The pitchforks were out. It added injury to +injury,"" Frank says. That's when public opinion of Geithner plummeted. According to a Rasmussen poll, 24 percent had a +favorable view of Geithner and 44 percent an unfavorable one. +The public's view of the bank bailout and the AIG bonuses colored its view of the auto bailout, the stimulus, and health +care reform. One of the rallying cries for the populist opposition to Obama was ""where's my bailout?"" (Obama himself +acknowledged that it was ""one of the most frequent questions"" he was asked in letters.) The auto program became a +bailout for the Big Three CEOs; the stimulus became a bailout of government itself; and health care reform was a bailout +for the uninsured—or ""reparations,"" as Rush Limbaugh put it. Wrote right-wing blogger Michelle Malkin, ""hardworking +citizens were getting sick of being played for chumps"" by ""moochers, big and small, corporate and individual, trampling +over themselves with their hands out demanding endless bailouts."" Obama and the Democrats were successfully portrayed +as aiding ""the moochers,"" but not the ""hardworking citizens."" In American politics, that's a recipe for political disaster. +Some in the White House political operation recognized in the late spring that the administration's economic efforts were +being defined by right-wing populism and tried to push Obama to take a more populist tack.

There is no doubt that, if the economy were growing faster, +and if unemployment were dropping below 9 percent, Obama and the Democrats would be more popular and not fearing a +November rout. But, unfortunately, the economy's sluggish recovery cannot be completely disentangled from the White +House's weak political performance. +In January, when the White House debated how large a stimulus to propose, Christina Romer, the head of the Council of +Economic Advisors, proposed a $1.2 trillion Keynesian jolt. David Obey, the chairman of the House Budget Committee, +told The Fiscal Times that Obama's Treasury Department asked initially for a $1.4 trillion bill. But the administration +finally proposed a stimulus between $700 and $800 billion that included large tax cuts that were more likely to stimulate +saving than consumption—and spending that would be unlikely to produce many jobs until the end of Obama's first term. +In the stimulus's first year, the administration spent only $17 billion of the $139 billion allocated for +infrastructure spending. +Prominent economists, including Paul Krugman and Joseph Stiglitz, made the case that a much larger stimulus was +necessary to reverse (rather than merely reduce) the rise in unemployment, and that, if a modest stimulus failed to reduce +unemployment, Republicans would convince the public that the stimulus was toxic medication and would block additional +Keynesian measures. That argument has been proven sadly correct. Some White House advisers appear to have +underestimated the depth of the Great Recession. Others seem to have doubted the administration had the political clout +to get more from Congress. +But the White House might have gotten more if Obama had proclaimed a national economic emergency (which it was); +framed the issue in terms of rescuing the middle class from damage done by Wall Street speculators, short-sighted CEOs, +and Chinese mercantilism; and directly attacked Republicans as heartless obstructionists. When Obama belatedly made +this sort of case on the eve of the financial reform vote this year, he got a much stronger bill than anyone had anticipated. +So it's not clear that the failure to get a larger stimulus—which has ended up hurting the administration politically—wasn't +itself a result of political timidity. +The president has also suffered from an inability to explain to the public why he sought such a large stimulus and what he +thought it could accomplish. Obama's New Foundation speech at Georgetown was soon forgotten. Afterward, Obama, to +the dismay of Democrats in Congress and some of his White House aides, pretty much dropped the jobs issue. From then +to Labor Day, he devoted a July visit to Buffalo and an August stopover in southern Indiana to the issue—at a time when +the right wing was mobilizing against him. Obama didn't just fail to develop a consistent narrative about the economy; he +didn't really try. +Contrast Obama's attempt to develop a politics to justify his economic program with what Reagan did in 1982. Faced with +steadily rising unemployment, which went from 8.6 percent in January to 10.4 percent in November, Reagan and his +political staff, which included James Baker, Mike Deaver, and Ed Rollins, forged a strategy early that year calling for +voters to ""stay the course"" and blaming the current economic troubles on Democratic profligacy. ""We are clearing away +the economic wreckage that was dumped in our laps,"" Reagan declared. Democrats accused them of playing ""the blame +game,"" but the strategy, followed to the letter by the White House for ten months, worked. The Republicans were +predicted to lose as many as 50 House seats, but they lost only 26 and broke even in the Senate. +Some commentators have noted Reagan's popularity was even lower than Obama's. But, on key economic questions, he +did much better than Obama and the Democrats are currently performing—and voters expressed far greater patience with +Reagan's program. According to polls, even as the unemployment rate climbed, a narrow plurality still expressed +confidence that Reagan's program would help the economy. On the eve of the election, with the unemployment rate at a +postwar high, a New York Times/CBS News poll found that 6o percent of likely voters thought Reagan's economic +program would eventually help the country. That's a sign of a successful political operation. If Obama could command +those numbers, Democrats could seriously limit their losses in November. But Obama has not been able to develop a +narrative that could convince people to trust him and the Democrats. +Why has the White House failed to convince the public that it is fighting effectively on its behalf? The principal culprit is +clearly Barack Obama. He has a strange aversion to confrontational politics. His aversion is strange because he was +schooled in it, working as a community organizer in the 198os, under the tutelage of activists who subscribed to teachings +of the radical Saul Alinsky. But, when Obama departed for Harvard Law School in 1988, he left Alinsky and adversarial +tactics behind. +The young lawyer who returned to Chicago and won a seat in the Illinois state Senate in 1996 practiced a very different +style of politics. Obama's principal accomplishments in Springfield were bills restricting lobbying and requiring +videotaping of confessions in potential death penalty cases. He was not a typical blue-collar, bread-and-butter Chicago +Democrat, but the kind of good government liberal that represents the upscale districts of the city, seeing in politics a +higher calling and ill at ease with (although not in open opposition to) the city's Democratic machine. He was also a post- +racial politician who eschewed the hard-edged, angry rhetoric of Jesse Jackson. (That, too, is oddly reminiscent of Carter, +who partly campaigned in 1976 as the white Southern antidote to George Wallace's angry racial populism.) +Obama carried this outlook into the U.S. Senate, into his campaign for the presidency, and then, into the presidency itself. +He is a cerebral, dispassionate, post-partisan; he wants to ""end the political strategy that has been based on division,"" to +""turn the page"" on the culture wars of the 1960s and the partisan battles of the 1990s. During the campaign, his aides +jokingly referred to him as the ""black Jesus."" While he can tolerate and even brush aside conflict, he is reluctant to actively +foment it. ""In a time of crisis, we can't afford to govern out of anger,"" he declared in February 2009. During his campaign +and his first year in office, he held to a blind faith in bipartisanship, even as the Republicans voted as a bloc against his +legislation. He is, perhaps, ill-suited in these respects for an era of bruising political warfare. +His advisers have clearly reinforced these inclinations. In the campaign, they fashioned him as the outsider candidate of +""hope"" and ""change"" and have extended this strategy into the presidency itself. They see him as standing above party. In a +meeting with congressional leaders last April, senior adviser David Axelrod rejected the complaint that Obama accorded +equal blame to Democrats and Republicans with his descriptions of the ""cynical politics in Washington."" Within the White +House, top aides still speak of promoting the Obama ""brand."" Organizing for America, the administration's campaign +organization, which is supposed to be focusing on the 2010 elections, recently devoted its resources to organizing parties +across the country to celebrate Obama's forty-ninth birthday. +These efforts to elevate Obama above the hurly-burly of Washington politics have been disastrous. Obama's image as an +iconic outsider has become the screen on which Fox News, the Tea Party, radicalright bloggers, and assorted politicians +have projected the image of him as a foreigner, an Islamic radical, and a socialist. He has remained ""the other"" that he +aspired to be during the campaign, but he and his advisers no longer control how that otherness is defined. +The White House and cabinet officials he appointed have reinforced his aversion to populism. As Jonathan Alter recounts +in The Promise: President Obama, Year One, Geithner and Summers repeatedly blocked attempts to get tough on Wall +Street on the grounds that doing so would threaten the recovery itself by upsetting the bankers. For most of his first year, +Alter writes, ""Obama bought the Geithner-Summers argument that the banks were fragile and couldn't be confronted +while they remained in peril."" Its reluctance to come down on the bankers crippled the administration politically, making +it far more difficult for it to get its way with Congress on a second stimulus program that would have boosted the recovery +and Democrats' political prospects. Bad politics can trump good policy. +Populism has profound shortcomings as a worldview. It tends toward demagoguery. In its relentless focus on the middle +class, it can ignore or stigmatize those below it. It can prove hostile to a long-range scientific outlook. A more populist +Obama, for instance, might have postponed the battle for climate change legislation or national health insurance and +probably would have taken a weaker stand on immigration. But populism has been an indelible part of the American +political psyche, and those who are uncomfortable making populist appeals, like Hoover or Carter—or, more recently, +presidential candidate John Kerry—suffer the consequences at the polls. +If Obama's politics leads to a Republican takeover of one or both houses of Congress, and even to a Republican president +in 2012, then much of what Obama has accomplished could be undone. It's unlikely that a new Republican president and +Congress would actually repeal the health care or the financial reform bill. But the former could be starved of public funds +and deprived of regulatory oversight; and the latter could be neutered by a hostile treasury secretary and by weak or +hostile presidential appointees to the Securities and Exchange Commission or the new Consumer Financial Protection +Agency. Reform legislation needs administrations and congresses committed to reform. That is where politics has to come +in; and that's where the Obama administration, with its aversion to populism, has fallen short. +John B.

Sid +Published on The New Republic (http://www.tnr.com) +The Unnecessary Fall +A counter-history of the Obama presidency. +• John B. Judis +• August 12, 2010 I 12:00 am +On April 14, 2009, as Barack Obama's standing in the polls was beginning to slip, and as Tea Party demonstrators were +amassing in Washington for tax day protests, the president gave a lengthy address atGeorgetown University explaining the +""five pillars"" of his economic policies. The speech was intended to promote a memorable slogan for Obama's program that +would evoke comparisons with Theodore Roosevelt's Square Deal, Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal, and Lyndon Johnson's +Great Society. +Obama's contribution was to be the New Foundation. ""We must lay a new foundation for growth and prosperity—a +foundation that will move us from an era of borrow and spend to one where we save and invest,"" he declared. Obama +would repeat the phrase seven times that day and on many more occasions over the next months. At Obama's private +White House dinner with presidential historians that June, the historians were no more impressed than the public with +the New Foundation as a slogan. ""I don't think it's going to work,"" Robert Dallek warned. Doris Kearns Goodwin said it +sounded ""like a woman's girdle."" +One of these historians might have been able to forewarn Obama that the slogan had been unsuccessfully deployed by a +Democratic president once before. In his 1979 State of the Union address, Jimmy Carter began, ""Tonight, I want to +examine in a broad sense the state of our American Union—how we are building a new foundation for a peaceful and a +prosperous world."" Carter would use the phrase five times in the speech, including in its conclusion, where he asked +members of Congress to join him ""in building that new foundation."" Like Obama's effort, the phrase inspired, at most, a +few underwear jokes and was then forgotten. +Obama's evocation of Carter was obviously unintended—but the Man from Plains is indeed the specter now hanging over +his presidency. Of course, Obama has already accomplished more in his first 20 months than Jimmy Carter did during his +entire presidency. But there is a disturbing political resemblance between the two presidencies. Both men ran inspired +campaigns in which they positioned themselves above the scandals and partisan quarrels of their predecessors and +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770950 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770950 Date: 08/31/2015 +initially stirred hopes of a ""transformational"" presidency. But, as presidents, both men somehow failed to connect with +large parts of the electorate. +To be sure, there are a number of very specific reasons why Carter and Obama landed in political trouble. Both men +contended with rising unemployment—Carter with rampant inflation as well—and voters' approval of a president and his +party tend to track closely with changes in the economy. Carter faced friction in his own party and the rise of a powerful +business lobby, and Obama has dealt with a Republican Party that has frustrated his dreams of a post-partisan presidency. +Yet the most important reason for their difficulties—evident in their inept attempts to brand their programs—has been an +inability to develop a politics that resonates with the public. +In the United States, politics pivots around the allegiance of the middle class, even as its identity has changed from +yeoman farmers and mechanics to store clerks, office workers, x-ray technicians, and small business owners. They are, in +Bill Clinton's words, ""those who work hard and play by the rules."" They are the central characters in a populist rhetoric +that goes back to the early republic. It depicts the middle class as embattled and threatened either from forces below +(impoverished immigrants, welfare cheaters, ghetto rioters) or above (Wall Street speculators, state bureaucrats, K Street +lobbyists). Populism can be embraced by Glenn Beck or Tom Harkin. It is intrinsically neither left-wing nor right-wing. +Politicians, such as Franklin Roosevelt or Ronald Reagan, who found a way of using populism's appeal during downturns +have enjoyed success, while those who have spurned it have suffered accordingly. If, in circumstances like the present one, +you don't develop a populist politics, your adversaries will use populism to define you as an enemy of the people. That's +what Carter discovered during the stagflation of the late '70s. And that's what has happened in the last 20 months of the +Great Recession to Barack Obama and to the Democratic Party he leads. +Obama took office with widespread popular support, even among Republicans, and some of his first efforts, including the +$800 billion stimulus, initially enjoyed strong public favor. But that wide appeal began to dissipate by the late spring of +2009. Disillusion with Obama fueled the November defeat of Democratic gubernatorial candidates in New Jersey and +Virginia. By January 2010, it was a crucial factor in Republican Scott Brown's astonishing victory over Martha Coakley in +Massachusetts. +In the postmortem debate over these defeats, some Democrats have blamed Obama's dogged pursuit of health care reform +while the economy was hemorrhaging jobs. That may have been a factor, but the real damage was done earlier. What +doomed Obama politically was the way he dealt with the financial crisis in the first six months of his presidency. In an +atmosphere primed for a populist backlash, he allowed the right wing to define the terms. +As Obama was delivering his inaugural address, the financial crisis was already in full swing; and it was already apparent +that financial speculation, outright fraud, and irresponsible and sometimes illegal housing-loan practices had played a +very large role in precipitating the crisis. The public was up in arms. But, instead of rallying the public against the ""money +changers,"" as Roosevelt had done in his first inaugural, Obama, taking a leaf from Jimmy Carter's infamous ""malaise"" +speech, put the blame on the public as a whole. ""Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and +irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new +age,"" he declared. +Over the next month, Obama would periodically criticize bankers after embarrassing revelations—at various times calling +the bonuses they gave themselves ""shameful"" and an ""outrage""—but, after hearing complaints about his rhetoric from the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770950 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770950 Date: 08/31/2015 +bankers, he would back off. At a private meeting on March 28 with 13 Wall Street CEOs, the president, his spokesman +Robert Gibbs said, ""emphasized that Wall Street needs Main Street and Main Street needs Wall Street."" And, in his +Georgetown speech, Obama returned to his theme of collective responsibility. The recession, Obama said, ""was caused by +a perfect storm of irresponsibility and poor decision-making that stretched from Wall Street to Washington to Main +Street."" +Obama's policy followed the same swerving course as his rhetoric. One week, he would favor harsh restrictions on bank +and insurance-company bonuses, but, the next week, he would waver; one week, he would support legislation allowing +bankruptcy judges to reduce the amount that homeowners threatened with foreclosure owed the banks; the next week, he +would fail to protest when bank lobbyists pressured the Senate to kill these provisions. But, more importantly, Obama—in +sharp contrast to Roosevelt in his first months—failed to push Congress to immediately enact new financial regulations or +even to set up a commission to investigate fraud. (When Congress finally appointed a commission in July 2009, Obama +and his party put a milquetoast Democratic politician, former California State Treasurer Philip Angelides, in charge of it.) +Obama's appointments also conveyed an impression that he wanted to let Wall Street off the hook. He appointed Timothy +Geithner to be treasury secretary. Geithner claimed that he was not part of Wall Street, but, in his capacity as president of +the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, he had served under a board of directors headed by JP Morgan Chase CEO Jamie +Dimon. As New York Fed president, Geithner had been partly responsible for the decision to let Lehman Brothers go +under, for the unpopular tarp program, and for American International Group (MG) paying back its Wall Street creditors +with government money. Geithner chose as his chief of staff a former lobbyist for Goldman Sachs. Retiring Democratic +Senator Byron Dorgan told me, ""Most Americans were reading about the massive compensations and bailouts, and the +administration largely hired people from the culture of Wall Street."" +By the spring, Obama's apparent tilt to Wall Street had sparked a right-wing populist revolt in the country. The newly +formed Tea Party movement, Beck and Fox News, and a host of right-wing bloggers were leading the charge; but, in a less +extreme form, the general public shared their anger. In an early April New York Times/CBS News poll, the public +disapproved of Obama's aiding the banks by 58 percent to 33 percent. In this same poll, public approval of Obama's +handling of the economy began to fall. Pollsters who did focus groups also traced disillusionment with Obama's economic +policies to his handling of the financial crisis. +Congressman Barney Frank, who defends Obama's policies, acknowledges that the president's political difficulties began +with the revelation that MG, which had received $170 billion from the government, had paid out $165 billion in bonuses +to the division that had brought the company down. Geithner had known about the bonuses but insisted there were no +legal grounds to block them. (It then came out that Geithner had pressured Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris +Dodd to insert a provision in the stimulus bill that protected the bonuses.) ""The pitchforks were out. It added injury to +injury,"" Frank says. That's when public opinion of Geithner plummeted. According to a Rasmussen poll, 24 percent had a +favorable view of Geithner and 44 percent an unfavorable one. +The public's view of the bank bailout and the AIG bonuses colored its view of the auto bailout, the stimulus, and health +care reform. One of the rallying cries for the populist opposition to Obama was ""where's my bailout?"" (Obama himself +acknowledged that it was ""one of the most frequent questions"" he was asked in letters.) The auto program became a +bailout for the Big Three CEOs; the stimulus became a bailout of government itself; and health care reform was a bailout +for the uninsured—or ""reparations,"" as Rush Limbaugh put it. Wrote right-wing blogger Michelle Malkin, ""hardworking +citizens were getting sick of being played for chumps"" by ""moochers, big and small, corporate and individual, trampling +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770950 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770950 Date: 08/31/2015 +over themselves with their hands out demanding endless bailouts."" Obama and the Democrats were successfully portrayed +as aiding ""the moochers,"" but not the ""hardworking citizens."" In American politics, that's a recipe for political disaster. +Some in the White House political operation recognized in the late spring that the administration's economic efforts were +being defined by right-wing populism and tried to push Obama to take a more populist tack. A group within the White +House began calling themselves the ""pitchfork gang,"" but they would find their attempts to convince Obama to get tough +on Wall Street or on insurance companies undermined by Geithner and by National Economic Council head Larry +Summers, who were worried about upsetting business confidence.

Obama's principal accomplishments in Springfield were bills restricting lobbying and requiring +videotaping of confessions in potential death penalty cases. He was not a typical blue-collar, bread-and-butter Chicago +Democrat, but the kind of good government liberal that represents the upscale districts of the city, seeing in politics a +higher calling and ill at ease with (although not in open opposition to) the city's Democratic machine. He was also a post- +racial politician who eschewed the hard-edged, angry rhetoric of Jesse Jackson. (That, too, is oddly reminiscent of Carter, +who partly campaigned in 1976 as the white Southern antidote to George Wallace's angry racial populism.) +Obama carried this outlook into the U.S. Senate, into his campaign for the presidency, and then, into the presidency itself. +He is a cerebral, dispassionate, post-partisan; he wants to ""end the political strategy that has been based on division,"" to +""turn the page"" on the culture wars of the 1960s and the partisan battles of the 1990s. During the campaign, his aides +jokingly referred to him as the ""black Jesus."" While he can tolerate and even brush aside conflict, he is reluctant to actively +foment it. ""In a time of crisis, we can't afford to govern out of anger,"" he declared in February 2009. During his campaign +and his first year in office, he held to a blind faith in bipartisanship, even as the Republicans voted as a bloc against his +legislation. He is, perhaps, ill-suited in these respects for an era of bruising political warfare. +His advisers have clearly reinforced these inclinations. In the campaign, they fashioned him as the outsider candidate of +""hope"" and ""change"" and have extended this strategy into the presidency itself. They see him as standing above party. In a +meeting with congressional leaders last April, senior adviser David Axelrod rejected the complaint that Obama accorded +equal blame to Democrats and Republicans with his descriptions of the ""cynical politics in Washington."" Within the White +House, top aides still speak of promoting the Obama ""brand."" Organizing for America, the administration's campaign +organization, which is supposed to be focusing on the 2010 elections, recently devoted its resources to organizing parties +across the country to celebrate Obama's forty-ninth birthday. +These efforts to elevate Obama above the hurly-burly of Washington politics have been disastrous. Obama's image as an +iconic outsider has become the screen on which Fox News, the Tea Party, radicalright bloggers, and assorted politicians +have projected the image of him as a foreigner, an Islamic radical, and a socialist. He has remained ""the other"" that he +aspired to be during the campaign, but he and his advisers no longer control how that otherness is defined. +The White House and cabinet officials he appointed have reinforced his aversion to populism. As Jonathan Alter recounts +in The Promise: President Obama, Year One, Geithner and Summers repeatedly blocked attempts to get tough on Wall +Street on the grounds that doing so would threaten the recovery itself by upsetting the bankers. For most of his first year, +Alter writes, ""Obama bought the Geithner-Summers argument that the banks were fragile and couldn't be confronted +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770950 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770950 Date: 08/31/2015 +while they remained in peril."" Its reluctance to come down on the bankers crippled the administration politically, making +it far more difficult for it to get its way with Congress on a second stimulus program that would have boosted the recovery +and Democrats' political prospects. Bad politics can trump good policy. +Populism has profound shortcomings as a worldview. It tends toward demagoguery. In its relentless focus on the middle +class, it can ignore or stigmatize those below it. It can prove hostile to a long-range scientific outlook. A more populist +Obama, for instance, might have postponed the battle for climate change legislation or national health insurance and +probably would have taken a weaker stand on immigration. But populism has been an indelible part of the American +political psyche, and those who are uncomfortable making populist appeals, like Hoover or Carter—or, more recently, +presidential candidate John Kerry—suffer the consequences at the polls. +If Obama's politics leads to a Republican takeover of one or both houses of Congress, and even to a Republican president +in 2012, then much of what Obama has accomplished could be undone. It's unlikely that a new Republican president and +Congress would actually repeal the health care or the financial reform bill. But the former could be starved of public funds +and deprived of regulatory oversight; and the latter could be neutered by a hostile treasury secretary and by weak or +hostile presidential appointees to the Securities and Exchange Commission or the new Consumer Financial Protection +Agency. Reform legislation needs administrations and congresses committed to reform. That is where politics has to come +in; and that's where the Obama administration, with its aversion to populism, has fallen short. +John B.

Koch in 1996. He and his brother Charles are lifelong libertarians and +have quietly given more than a hundred million dollars to right-wing causes. +On May 17th, a black-tie audience at the Metropolitan Opera House applauded as a +tall, jovial-looking billionaire took the stage. It was the seventieth annual +spring gala of American Ballet Theatre, and David H. Koch was being celebrated +for his generosity as a member of the board of trustees; he had recently donated +$2.5 million toward the company's upcoming season, and had given many millions +before that. Koch received an award while flanked by two of the gala's +co-chairs, Blaine Trump, in a peach-colored gown, and Caroline Kennedy +Schlossberg, in emerald green. Kennedy's mother, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, had +been a patron of the ballet and, coincidentally, the previous owner of a Fifth +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +Avenue apartment that Koch had bought, in 1995, and then sold, eleven years +later, for thirty-two million dollars, having found it too small. +The gala marked the social ascent of Koch, who, at the age of seventy, has +become one of the city's most prominent philanthropists. In 2008, he donated a +hundred million dollars to modernize Lincoln Center's New York State Theatre +building, which now bears his name. He has given twenty million to the American +Museum of Natural History, whose dinosaur wing is named for him. This spring, +after noticing- the decrepit state of the fountains outside the Metropolitan +Museum of Art, Koch pledged at least ten million dollars for their renovation. +He is a trustee of the museum, perhaps the most coveted social prize in the +city, and serves on the board of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, where, +after he donated more than forty million dollars, an endowed chair and a +research center were named for him. +One dignitary was conspicuously absent from the gala: the event's third honorary +co-chair, Michelle Obama. Her office said that a scheduling conflict had +prevented her from attending. Yet had the 'First Lady shared the stage with Koch +it might have created an awkward tableau. In Washington, Koch is best known as +part of a family that has repeatedly funded stealth attacks on the federal +government, and on the Obama Administration in particular. +With his brother Charles, who is seventy-four, David Koch owns virtually all of +Koch Industries, a conglomerate, headquartered in Wichita, Kansas, whose annual +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +revenues are estimated to be a hundred billion dollars. The company has grown +spectacularly since their father, Fred, died, in 1967, and the brothers took +charge. The Kochs operate oil refineries in Alaska, Texas, and Minnesota, and +control some four thousand miles of pipeline. Koch Industries owns Brawny paper +towels, Dixie cups, Georgia-ea ific lumber, Stainmaster carpet, and Lycra, among +other products. Forbes ranks it as the second-largest private company in the +country, after Cargill, and its consistent profitability has made David and +Charles Koch—who, years ago, bought out two other brothers—among the richest men +in America. Their combined fortune of thirty-five billion dollars is exceeded +only by those of Bill Gates and Warren Buffett. +The Kochs are longtime libertarians who believe in drastically lower personal +' and corporate taxes, minimal social services for the needy, and much less +oversight of industry—especially environmental regulation. These views dovetail +with the brothers' corporate interests. In a study released this spring, the +University of Massachusetts at Amherst's Political Economy Research Institute +named Koch Industries one of the top ten air polluters in the United States. And +Greenpeace issued a report identifying the company as a ""kingpin of climate +science denial."" The report showed that, from 2005 to 2008, the Kochs vastly +outdid ExxonMobil in giving money to organizations fighting legislation related +to climate change, underwriting a huge network of foundations, think tanks, and +political front groups. Indeed, the brothers have funded opposition campaigns +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +against so many Obama Administration policies—from health-care reform to the +economic-stimulus program—that, in political circles, their ideological network +is known as the Kochtopus. +In a statement, Koch Industries said that the Greenpeace report ""distorts the +environmental record of our companies."" And David Koch, in a recent, admiring +article about him in New York, protested that the ""radical press"" had turned his +family into ""whipping boys,"" and had exaggerated its influence on American +politics. But Charles Lewis, the founder of the Center for Public Integrity, a +. nonpartisan watchdog group, said, ""The Koons are on a whole different level. +There's no one else who has spent this much money. The sheer dimension of it is +what sets them apart. They have a pattern of lawbreaking, political +manipulation, and obfuscation. I've been in Washington since Watergate, and I've +never seen anything like it. They are the Standard Oil of our :times."" +few weeks after the Lincoln Center gala, the advocacy wing of the Americans for +Prosperity Foundation—an organization that David Koch started, in 2004—held a +different kind of gathering. Over the July +. 4th weekend, a summit called Texas +Defending the American Dream took place in a chilly hotel ballroom in Austin. +Though Koch freely promotes his philanthropic ventures, he did not attend the +summit, and his name was not in evidence. And on this occasion the audience was +roused not by a dance performance but by a series of speakers denouncing +President Barack Obama. Peggy Venable, the organizer of the summit, warned that +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +Administration officials ""have a socialist vision for this country."" +Five hundred people attended the summit, which served, in part, as a training +session for Tea Party activists in Texas. An advertisement cast the event as a +populist uprising against vested corporate power. ""Today, the voices of .average +Americans are being drowned out by lobbyists and special interests,"" it said. +""But you can do something about it:"" The pitch made no mention of its corporate +funders. The White House has expressed frustration that such sponsors have +largely eluded public notice. David Axelrod, Obama'-s senior adviser, said, ""What +they don't say is that, in part, this is a grassroots citizens' movement brought +to you by a bunch of oil billionaires."" +In April, 2009, Melissa Cohlmia, a company spokesperson, denied that the Kochs +had direct links to the Tea. Party, saying that Americans for Prosperity is ""an +independent organization and Koch. companies do not in any way direct their +activities."" Later, she issued a statement: ""No funding has been provided by +Koch companies, the Koch foundations, or Charles Koch or David Koch specifically +to support the tea parties."" David Koch told New York; ""I've never been to a +tea-party event. No one representing the tea party has ever even approached me."" +At the lectern in Austin, however, Venable-a longtime political operative who +draws a salary from Americans for Prosperity, and who has worked for Koch-funded +political groups since 1994-spoke less warily. ""We love what the Tea Parties are +doing, because that's how we're going to take back America!"" she declared, as +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +the crowd cheered. In a subsequent interview, sh described herself as an early +member of the movement, joking, ""I was part of the Tea Party before it was +cool!"" She explained that the role of Americans for Prosperity was to help +""educate"" Tea Party activists on policy details, and to give them ""next-step +training"" after their rallies, so that their political energy could be +channelled ""more effectively."" And she noted that Americans for Prosperity had +provided Tea Party activists with lists of elected officials to target. She said +of the Kochs, ""They're certainly our people. David's the chairman of our board. +I've certainly met with them, and I'm very appreciative of what they do."" +Venable honored several Tea Party ""citizen leaders"" at the summit. The Texas +branch of Americans for Prosperity gave its Blogger of the Year Award to a young +woman named Sibyl West. On June 14th, West, writing on her site, described Obama +as the ""cokehead in chief.""

Over time, however, Stalin brutally purged +several of Koch's Soviet colleagues. Koch was deeply affected by the experience, +and regretted his collaboration. He returned to the U.S. In the headquarters of +his company, Rock Island Oil & Refining, in Wichita, he kept photographs aimed +at proving that some of those Soviet refineries had•been destroyed in the Second +World War.

Charles eventually invited him to the Kochs' mansion, to +participate in an informal political-discussion group. ""It was pretty clear that +Charles thought some of the Birch .Scciety was bullshit,"" diZerega recalled. +DiZerega, who has lost touch with Charles, eventually abandoned right-wing +views, and became a political-science professor.

Charles and David Koch were +particularly influenced by the work of Friedrich von Hayek, the author of ""The +Road to Serfdom"" (1944), which argued that centralized government planning led, +inexorably, to totalitarianism. Hayek's belief in unfettered capitaiisth has +proved inspirational to many conservatives, and to anti-Soviet dissidents; +lately, Tea Party supporters have championed his work. In June, the talk-radio +host Glenn Beck, who has supported the Tea Party rebellion, promoted ""The Road +to Serfdom"" on his show; the paperback soon became a No. 1 best-seller on +Amazon. (Beck appears to be a fan of the Kochs; in the midst of a recent on-air +parody of Al Gore, Beck said, without explanation, ""I want to thank Charles Koch +for this information."" Beck declined to elaborate on the relationship.) +Charles and David also became devotees of a more radical thinker, Robert +LeFevre, who favored the abolition of the state but didn't like the label +""anarchist""; he called himself an ""autarchist."" LeFevre liked to say that +""government is a disease masquerading as its own cure."" In 1956, he opened an +institution called the Freedom School, in Colorado Springs.

In +retaliation, the company's board, which answered to Charles, fired William. +(""Charles runs it all with an iron hand,"" Bruce Bartlett, the economist, told +me.) Lawsuits were filed, with William and Freddie on one side and Charles and +David on the other.. In 1983, Charles and David bought out their brothers' share +in the company for nearly a billion dollars. But the antagonism remained, and +litigation continued for seventeen more years, with the brothers hiring rival +private investigators; in 1990, they walked past one another with stony +expressions at their mother's funeral. Eventually, Freddie moved to Monaco, +which has no income tax. He bought historic estates in France, Austria, and +elsewhere, filling them with art, antiques, opera scores, and literary +manuscripts. William founded his own energy company, Oxbow, and turned to +yachting; he spent an estimated sixty-five million dollars to win the America's +Cup, in 1992. +With Charles as the undisputed chairman and C.E.O., Koch Industries expanded +. +rapidly.

David moved to New York City, where he is an executive +vice-president of the company and the C.E.O. of its Chemical Technology Group. A +financial expert who knows Koch Industries well told me, ""Charles is the +company. Charles runs ."" David, described by associates as ""affable"" and ""a +bit of a lunk,"" enjoyed for years the life of a wealthy bachelor. He rented a +yacht in the South of France and bought a waterfront home in Southampton, where +he threw parties that the Web site New York Social Diary likened to an ""East +Coast version of Hugh Hefner's soirees."" In 1996, he married Julia Flesher, a +fashion assistant. They live in a nine-thousand-square-foot duplex at 740 Park +Avenue, with their three children. Though David's manner is more cosmopolitan, +and more genial, than that of Charles, Brian Doherty, who has interviewed both +brothers, couldn't think of a single issue on which the brothers disagreed. +As their fortunes grew, Charles and David Koch became the primary underwriters +of hard-line libertarian politics in America. Charles's goal, as Doherty +described it, was to tear the government ""out at the root."" The brothers' first +major public step came in 1979, when Charles persuaded David, then thirty-nine, +to run for public office. They had become supporters of the Libertarian Party, +and were backing its Presidential candidate, Ed Clark, who was running against +Ronald Reagan from the right. Frustrated by the legal limits on campaign +donations, they contrived to place David on the ticket, in the Vice-Presidential +• +slot; upon becoming a candidate, he could lavish as much of his personal fortune +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +as he wished on the campaign. The ticket's slogan was ""The Libertarian Party has +only one source of funds: You."" In fact, its primary source of funds was David +Koch, who spent more than two million dollars on the effort. +Many of the ideas propounded in the 1980 campaign presaged the Tea Party +movement. Ed Clark told The Nation that libertarians were getting ready to stage +""a very big tea party,"" because people were ""sick to death"" of taxes. The +Libertarian Party platform called for the abolition of the F.B.I. and the +° .C.I.A., as well as of federal regulatory agencies, such as the Securities and +Exchange Commission and the Department of Energy. The Party wanted to end Social +Security, minimum-wage laws, gun control, and all personal and corporate income +taxes; it proposed the legalization of prostitution, recreational drugs, and +suicide. Government should be reduced to only one function: the protection of +individual rights. William F. Buckley, Jr., a more traditional conservative, +called the movement ""Anarcho-Totalitarianism."" +That November,. the Libertarian ticket received only one per cent of the vote. +The brothers realized that their brand of politics didn't sell at the ballot +box. Charles Koch became openly scornful of conventional politics. •""It tends to +be a nasty, corrupting business,"" he told a reporter at the time. ""I'm +interested in advancing libertarian ideas."" According to Doherty's book, the +Kochs came to regard elected politicians as merely ""actors playing out a +script."" A longtime confidant of the Kochs told Doherty that the brothers wanted +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +to ""supply the themes and words for the scripts."" In order to alter the +direction of America, they had to ""influence the areas where policy ideas +percolate from: academia and think tanks."" +fter the 1980 election, Charles and David Koch receded from the public arena. +But they poured more than a hundred million dollars into dozens of seemingly +independent organizations. Tax records indicate that in 2008 the three main Koch +family foundations gave money to thirty-four political and policy organizations, +three of which they founded, and several of which they direct. The Kochs and +their company have given additional millions to political campaigns, advocacy +groups, and lobbyists. The family's subterranean financial role has fuelled +suspicion on the 'left; Lee Fang, of the liberal blog ThinkProgress, has called +the Kochs ""the billionaires behind the hate."" +Only the Kochs know precisely how much they have Spent on politics. Public tax +records show that between 1998 and 2008 the Charles G. Koch Charitable +Foundation spent more than forty-eight million dollars. The Claude R. Lambe +Charitable Foundation, which is controlled by Charles Koch and his slife, along +with two company employees and an accountant, spent more than twenty-eight +million. The David H. Koch Charitable Foundation spent more than a hundred and +twenty million. Meanwhile, since 1998 Koch Industries has spent more than fifty +million dollars. on lobbying. Separately, the company's political-action +committee, KochPAC, has donated some eight million dollars to political +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +campaigns, more than eighty per cent of it to Republicans. So far in 2010, Koch +Industries leads all other energy companies in political contributions, as it +has since 2006. In addition, during the past dozen years the Kochs and other +family members have personally spent more than two million dollars on political +contributions. In the second quarter of 2010, David Koch was the biggest +individual contributor to the Republican Governors Association, with a +million-dollar donation. Other gifts by the Koons may be untraceable; federal +tax law permits anonymous personal donations to politically active nonprofit +groups. +In recent decades, members of several industrial dynasties have spent parts of +their fortunes on a conservative agenda. In the nineteen-eighties, the Olin +family, which owns a chemicals-and-manufacturing conglomerate, became known for +funding right-leaning thinking in academia, particularly in law schools. And +during the nineties Richard Mellon Scaife, a descendant of Andrew Mellon, spent +millions attempting to discredit President Bill Clinton. An Rabin-Havt, +vice-president at the Democratic-leaning Web site Media Matters, said that the +Kochs' effort is unusual, in its marshalling of corporate and personal funds: +""Their role, in terms of financial commitments, is staggering."" +Of course, Democrats give money, too. Their most prominent donor, the financier +George Soros, runs a foundation, the Open Society Institute, that has spent as +much as a hundred million dollars a year in America.

But Michael Vachon, his spokesman, argued that Soros's giving is +transparent, and that ""none of his contributions are in the service of his own +economic interests."" The Kochs have given millions of dollars to nonprofit +groups that criticize environmental regulation and support lower taxes for +industry. Gus diZerega, the former friend, suggested that the Kochs' youthful +idealism about libertarianism had largely devolved into a rationale for +corporate self-interest. He said of Charles, ""Perhaps he has confused making +money with freedom."" +Some critics have suggested that the Kochs' approach has subverted the purpose +of tax-exempt giving. By law, charitable foundations must conduct exclusively +nonpartisan activities that promote the public welfare. A 2004 report by the +National Committee for *Responsive Philanthropy, a watchdog group, described the +*Kochs' foundations as being self-serving, concluding, ""These foundations give +money to nonprofit organizations that do research and advocacy on issues that +impact the profit margin of Koch Industries."" +The Kochs have gone well beyond their immediate self-interest, however, funding +'organizations that aim to push the country in a libertarian direction. Among the +institutions that they have subsidized are the Institute for Justice,. which +files lawsuits opposing state and federal regulations; the Institute for Humane +Studies, which underwrites libertarian academics; and the Bill of Rights +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +Institute, which promotesa conservative slant on the Constitution. Many of the +organizations funded by the Kochs employ specialists who write position papers +that are subsequently quoted by politicians and pundits. David Koch has +acknowledged that the family exerts tight ideological control. ""If we're going +to give a lot of money, we'll make darn sure they spend it in a way that goes +along with our intent,"" he told Doherty. ""And if they make a wrong turn and +start doing things we don't agree with, we withdraw funding."" +he Kochs' subsidization of a pro-corporate movement fulfills, in many ways, the +.vision laid out in a secret 1971 memo that Lewis Powell, then a Virginia +attorney, wrote two months before he was nominated to the Supreme Court. The +antiwar movement had turned its anger on defense contractors, such as Dow +Chemical, and Ralph Nader was leading a public-interest crusade against +corporations.

The greatest threat to free enterprise, he +warned, was not Communism or the New Left but, rather, respectable elements of +soCiety""—intellectuals, journalists, and scientists. To defeat them, he wrote, +business leaders needed to wage a long-term, unified campaign to change public +opinion. +Charles Koch seems to have approached both business and politics with the +deliberation of an engineer.

The project, he +admitted, was extremely ambitious. ""We have a radical philosophy,"" he said. +In 1977, the Kochs provided the funds to launch the nation's first libertarian +think tank, the Cato Institute. According to the Center for Public Integrity, +between 1986 and 1993 the Koch family gave eleven million dollars to the +institute. Today, Cato has more than a hundred full-time employees, and its +experts and policy papers are widely quoted and respected by the mainstream +media. It describes itself as nonpartisan, and its scholars have at times been +critical of both parties. Put it has consistently pushed for corporate tax cuts, +reductions in social services, and laissez-faire environmental policies. +When President Obama, in a 2008 speech, described the science on global warming +as ""beyond dispute,"" the Cato Institute took out a full-page ad in the Times to +contradict him. Cato's resident scholars have relentlessly criticized political +attempts to stop global warming as expensive, ineffective, and unnecessary. Ed +Crane, the Cato Institute's founder and president, told me that ""global-warming +theories give the government more control of the economy."" +Cato scholars have been particularly energetic in promoting the Climategate +scandal. Last year, private e-mails of climate scientists at the University of +East Anglia, in England, were mysteriously leaked, and their exchanges appeared +to suggest a willingness to falsify data in order to buttress the idea that +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +global warming is real. In the two weeks after the e-mails went public, one Cato +scholar gave more than twenty media interviews trumpeting the alleged scandal. +But five independent inquiries have since exonerated the researchers, and +nothing was found in their e-mails or data to discredit the scientific consensus +on global warming. +Nevertheless, the controversy succeeded in spreading skepticism about climate +change. Even though the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration recently +issued a report concluding that the evidence for global warming is unequivocal, +more Americans are convinced than at any time since 1997 that scientists have +exaggerated the seriousness of global warming. The Kochs promote this statistic +on their company's Web site but do not mention the role that their funding has +played in fostering such doubt. +In a 2002 memo; the Republican political consultant Frank Luntz wrote that.so +long as ""voters believe there is no consensus about global warming within the +scientific community"" the status quo would prevail. The key for opponents of +environmental reform, he said, was to question the science—a public-relations +strategy that the tobacco industry used effectively for years to forestall +regulation. The Kochs have funded many sources of environmental Skepticism, such +as the Heritage Foundation, which has argued that ""scientific facts gathered in +the past 10 years do not support the notion of catastrophic human-made warming."" +The brothers have given money to more obscure groups, too, such as the +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +Independent Women's Forum, which opposes the presentation of global warming as a +scientific fact in American public schools. Until 2008, the group was run by +Nancy Pfotenhauer, a former lobbyist for Koch Industries. Mary Beth Jarvis, a +vice-president of a Koch subsidiary, is on the group's board. +Naomi Oreskes, a professor of history and science studies at the University of +California, San Diego, is the co-author of ""Merchants of Doubt,"" a new book that +chronicles various attempts by American industry to manipulate public opinion on +science. She noted that the Mocha, as the heads of ""a company with refineries +and pipelines,"" have ""a lot at. stake."" She added, ""If the answer is to phase out +fossil fuels, a different group of people are going to be making money, so we +shouldn't be surprised that they're fighting tooth and nail."" +David Koch told New York that he was unconvinced that global warming has been +caused by human activity. Even if it has been, h said, the heating of the +planet will be beneficial, resulting in longer growing seasons in the Northern +Hemisphere.

Lambe Charitable Foundation, a director of the Fred C. and Mary R. +Koch Foundation, and a director and co-founder, with David Koch, of the +Americans for Prosperity Foundation. +Fink, with his many titles, has become the central nervous system of the +Kochtopus. He appears to have supplanted Ed Crane, the 'head or the Cato +Institute, as the brothers' main political lieutenant. Though David remains on +the board at Cato, Charles Koch has fallen out with Crane. Associates suggested +to me that Crane had been insufficiently respectful of Charles's management +philosophy, which he distilled into a book called ""The Science of Success,"" and +trademarked under the name Market-Based Management, or M.B.M. In the book, +Charles recommends instilling a company's corporate culture with the +competitiveness of the marketplace. Koch describes M.B.M. as a ""holistic system"" +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +containing ""five dimensions: vision, virtue and talents, knowledge.processes, +decision rights and incentives."" A top Cato Institute official told me that +Charles ""thinks he's a genius. He's the emperor, and he's convinced he's wearing +clothes."" Fink, by contrast, has been .far more embracing of Charles's ideas. +(Fink, like the Kochs, declined to be interviewed.) +At a 1995 conference for philanthropists, Fink adopted the language of economics +when speaking about the Mercatus Center's purpose. He said that grant-makers +should use think tanks and political-action groups to convert intellectual raw +materials into policy ""products."" +The Wall Street Journal has called the Mercatus Center ""the mos.t important think +tank you've never heard of,"" and noted that fourteen of the twenty-three +regulations that President George W. Bush placed on a ""hit list"" had been +suggested first by Mercatus scholars. Fink told the paper that the Kochs have +""other means of fighting [their] battles,"" and that the Mercatus Center does not +actively promote the company's private interests. But Thomas McGarity, a law +professor at the University of Texas, who specializes in environmental issues,. +told me that ""Koch has been constantly in trouble with the E.P.A., and Mercatus +has constantly hammered on the agency."" An environmental lawyer who has clashed +with the Mercatus Center called it ""a means of laundering economic aims.""

Susan Dudley, an +economist. who became a top official at the Mercatus Center, criticized the +proposed +. rule. The E.P.A., she argued, had not taken into account that smog-free +skies would result in more cases of skin cancer. She projected that if pollution +were controlled it would cause up to eleven thousand additional cases of skin +cancer each year. +In 1999, the District of Columbia Circuit Court took up Dudley's smog argument. +Evaluating the E.P.A.rule, the court found that the E.P.A. had ""explicitly +disregarded"" the ""possible health benefits of ozone."" In another part of the +opinion, the court ruled, 2-1, that the E.P.A. had overstepped its authority in +calibrating standards for ozone emissions. As the Constitutional Accountability +Center, a think tank, revealed, the judges in the majority had previously +attended legal junkets, on a Montana ranch, that were arranged by the Foundation +for Research on Economics and the Environment—a group funded by Koch family +foundations.

They needed a mechanism to deliver +those ideas to the street, and•to attract the public's support. In 1984, David +Koch and Richard Fink created yet another organization, and Kibbe joined them. +The group, Citizens for a Sound Economy, seemed like a grassroots movement, but +according to the Center for Public Integrity it was sponsored principally by the +Kochs, who provided $7.9 million between 1986 and 1993. Its mission, Kibbe said, +""was to take these heavy ideas and translate them for mass America. . . . We +read the same literature Obama did about nonviolent revolutions—Saul Alinsky, +Gandhi, Martin Luther King. We studied the idea of the Boston Tea Party as an +example of nonviolent, social change. We learned we needed boots on the ground to +sell ideas, not candidates."" Within a few years, the group had mobilized fifty +paid field workers, in twenty-six states, to rally voters behind the Kochs' +agenda. David and Charles, according to one participant, were ""very controlling, +very top down. You can't build an organization with them. They run it."" +Around this time, the brothers faced a political crisis.

A grand jury +was convened to investigate the allegations, but it eventually disbanded, +without issuing criminal charges. According to the Senate report, after the +committee hearings Koch operatives delved into the personal lives of committee +staffers, even questioning an ex-wife. Senate investigators were upset by the +Kochs' tactics. Kenneth Ballen, the counsel to the Senate committee, said, +""These people have amassed such unaccountable power!"" +By 1993, when Bill Clinton became President, Citizens for a Sound Economy had +become a prototype for the kind of corporate-backed opposition campaigna that +have proliferated during the Obama era. The group waged a successful assault on +Clinton's proposed B.T.U. tax on energy, for instance, running- advertisements, +staging media events, and targeting opponents. And it mobilized anti-tax rallies +outside the Capitol-rallies that NPR described as ""designed to strike fear into +the hearts of wavering Democrats."" ban Glickman, a former Democratic congressman +from Wichita, who supported the B.T.U. tax, recalled, ""I'd been in Congress +eighteen years.

When the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette investigated +the matter, it discovered that the spinoff group had ""no citizen membership of +its own."" +In 1997, another Senate investigation began looking into what a minority report +called ""an audacious plan to pour millions of dollars in contributions into - +Republican campaigns nationwide without disclosing the amount or source,"" in +order to evade .campaign-finance laws. A shell corporation, Triad Management, had +paid more than three million dollars for attack ads in twenty-six House races +and three Senate races.

The Senate committee's +minority report suggested that ""the trust was financed in whole or in part by +Charles and David Koch of Wichita, Kansas."" The brothers were suspected of +having secretly paid for the attack ads, most of which aired in states where +Koch Industries did business. In Kansas, where Triad Management was especially +active, the funds may have played a decisive role in four of six federal races. +The Kochs, when asked by reporters if they had given the money, refused to +comment.

In the mid-nineties, the Justice Department filed two lawsuits +against Koch Industries, claiming that it was responsible for more than three +hundred oil spills, which had released an estimated three million gallons of oil +into lakes and rivers. The penalty was potentially as high as two hundred and +fourteen million dollars. In a settlement, Koch Industries paid a record +thirty-million-dollar civil fine, and agreed to spend five million dollars on +environmental projects. +In 1999, a jury found Koch Industries guilty of negligence and malice in the +deaths of two Texas teen-agers in an explosion that resulted from a leaky +underground butane pipeline. (In 2001, the company paid an undisclosed +settlement.) And in the final months of the Clinton Presidency the Justice +Department levelled a ninety-seven-count indictment against the company, for +covering up the discharge of ninety-one tons of benzene, a carcinogen, from its +refinery in Corpus Christi, Texas. The company was liable for three hundred and +fifty million dollars in fines, and four Koch employees faced up to thirty-five +years in prison.

David +Uhlmann, a career prosecutor who, at the time, headed the environmental-crimes +section at the Justice Department, described the suit as ""one of the most +significant cases ever brought under the Clean Air Act."" He added, +""Environmental crimes are almost always motivated by economics and arrogance, +and in the Koch case there was a healthy dose of both."" +During the 2000 election campaign, Koch Industries spent some nine hundred +thousand dollars to support the candidacies of George N. Bush and other +Republicans. During the Bush years, Koch Industries and other fossil-fuel +companies enjoyed remarkable prosperity. The 2005 energy bill, which Hillary +Clinton dubbed the Dick Cheney Lobbyist Energy Bill, offered enormous subsidies +and tax breaks for energy companies. The Kochs have cast themselves as deficit +hawks, but, according to a study by Media Matters, their companies have +benefitted from nearly a hundred million dollars in government contracts since +2000. +In 2004, Citizens for a Sound Economy was accused of illegitimately throwing its +weight behind Bush's reelection. The group's Oregon branch had attempted to get +Ralph Nader on the Presidential ballot, in order to dilute Democratic support +for John Kerry, Critics argued that it was illegal for a tax-exempt nonprofit +organization to donate its services for partisan political purposes. (A +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +complaint was filed with the Federal Election Commission; it was dismissed.) +That year, internal rivalries at Citizens for a Sound Economy caused the +organization to split apart. David Koch and Fink started a new group, Americans +for Prosperity, and they hired Tim Phillips to run it. Phillips was a political +veteran who had worked with Ralph Reed, the evangelical leader and Republican +activist, co-founding Century Strategies, a campaign-consulting company that +became notorious for its ties to the disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff. +Phillips's online biography describes him as an expert in ""grasstops"" and +""grassroots"" political organizing. The Kochs' choice of Phillips signalled an +even greater toughness. The conservative operative Grover Norquist, who is known +for praising ""throat slitters"" in politics, called Phillips ""a grownup who can +make things happen."" +Last year, Phillips told the Financial Times that Americans for Prosperity had +only eight thousand registered members. Currently, its Web site claims that the +group has ""1.2 million activists."" Whatever its size, the Kochs' political +involvement has been intense; a former employee of the Cato Institute told me +that Americans for Prosperity ""was micromanaged by the Kochs."" And the brothers' +investment may well have paid off: Americans for Prosperity, in concert with the +• +family's other organizations, has been instrumental in disrupting the Obama +Presidency. +In January, 2008, Charles Koch wrote in his company newsletter that America +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +could be on the verge of ""the greatest loss of liberty and prosperity since the +1930s."" That October, Americans for Prosperity held a conference of conservative +operatives at a Marriott hotel outside Washington. Erick Erickson, the +editor-in-chief of the conservative blog RedState.com, took the lectern, thanked +David Koch, and vowed to ""unite and fight . . . the armies of the left!"" Soon +after Obama assumed office, Americans for Prosperity launched ""Porkulus"" rallies +against Obama's stimulus-spending measures. Then the Mercatus Center released a +report claiming that stimulus funds had been directed disproportionately toward +Democratic districts; eventually, the author was forced to correct the report, +but not before Rush Limbaugh, citing the paper, had labelled Obama's program ""a +slush fund,"" and Fox News and other conserVative outlets had echoed the +sentiment. (Phil Kerpen, the vice-president for policy at Americans for +Prosperity, is a contributor to the Fox News Web site. Another officer at +Americans for Prosperity, Walter Williams, often guest-hosts for Limbaugh.) +Americans for Prosperity also created an offshoot, Patients United Now, which +organized what Phillips has estimated to be more than three hundred rallies +against health-care reform. At one rally, an effigy of a Democratic congressman +was hung; at another, protesters unfurled a banner depicting corpses from +Dachau. The group also helped organize the ""Kill the Bill"" protests outside the +Capitol, in March, where Democratic supporters of health-care reform alleged +that they were spat on and cursed at. Phillips was a featured speaker. +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +Americans for Prosperity has held at least eighty events targeting cap-and-trade +legislation, which is aimed at making industries pay for the air pollution that +they create. Speakers for -the group claimed,, with exaggeration, that even +back-yard barbecues and kitchen stoves would be taxed. The group was also +involved in the attacks on Obama's ""green jobs"" czar, Van Jones, and waged a +crusade against international climate talks. Casting his group as a champion of +ordinary workers who would be hurt by environmentalists, Phillips went to +Copenhagen last year and staged a protest outside the United Nations conference +on climate change, declaring, ""We're a grasaroots organization. . . . I think +it's unfortunate when wealthy children of wealthy +. families . . want to send +unemployment rates in the United States up to twenty per cent."" +Grover Norquist, who holds a weekly meeting for conservative leaders in +Washington, .including representatives from Americans for Prosperity, told me +that last summer's raucous rallies were pivotal in undermining Obama's agenda +The Republican leadership in Congress, he said, ""couldn't have done it without +August, when people went out on the streets.

Moreover, the +appearance of growing public opposition to Obama affected corporate donors on K +Street. ""K Street is a three-billion-dollar weathervane,"" Norquist said. ""When +Obama was 'strong, the Chamber of Commerce said, 'We can work with the Obama +Administration.'

Not a single Republican senator was +working with the Administration on health care, or much else. Pundits were +writing about Obama's political ineptitude, and Tea Party groups were accusing +the President of initiating ""a government takeover."" In a speech, Koch said, +""Days like today bring to reality the vision of our board of directors when we +started this organization, five years ago."" He went on, ""We envisioned a mass +movement, a state-based one, but national in scope, of hundreds of thousands of +American citizens from all walks of life standing up and fighting for the +economic freedoms that made our nation the most prosperous society in history. . +. . Thankfully, the stirrings from California to Virginia, and from Texas to +Michigan, show that more and more of our fellow-citizens are beginning to see +the same truths as we do."" +While Koch didn't explicitly embrace the Tea Party movement that day, more +recently he has come close to doing so, praising it for demonstrating the +""powerful visceral hostility in the body politic against the massive increase in +government power, the massive efforts to socialize this country.""

The Kochs' +sense of imperilment is somewhat puzzling. Income inequality in America is +greater than it has been since the nineteen-twenties, and since the seventies +the tax rates of the wealthiest have fallen more than thoseof the middle class. +Yet the brothers' message has evidently resonated with-voters: a recent poll +found that fifty-five per cent of Americans agreed that Obama is a socialist. +Americans for Prosperity, meanwhile, has announced that it will spend an +additional forty-five million dollars before the midterm elections, in November. +Although the group is legally prohibited from directly .endorsing candidates, it +nonetheless plans to target some fifty House races and half a dozen Senate +races, staging rallies, organizing door-to-door canvassing, and running ads +aimed at ""educating voters about where candidates stand."" +Though the Kochs have slowed Obama's momentum, their larger political battle is +far from won. Richard Fink, interviewed by FrumForum.com this spring, said, ""If +you look at where we've gone from the year 2000 to now, with the expansion of +government spending and a debt burden that threatens to bankrupt the country, +doesn't look very good at all."" He went on, ""It looks like the infrastructure +that was built and nurtured has not carried the. day."" He suggested that the +Kochs needed ""to get more into the practical, day-to-day issues of governing."" +n 1991, David Koch was badly injured in a plane crash in Los Angeles.

My joke is that I've been busy ever since, doing all the good work I +can think of, so He can have confidence in me."" +Koch began giving spectacularly large donations to the arts and sciences. And he +became a patron of cancer research, focussing on prostate cancer. In addition to +his gifts to Sloan-Kettering, he gave fifteen million dollars to New +York-Presbyterian Hospital, a hundred and twenty-five million to M.I.T. for +cancer research, twenty million to Johns Hopkins University, and twenty-five +millior. to the M.

In 2004, President Bush named him to the National Cancer Advisory Board, +which guides the National Cancer Institute. +Koch's corporate and political roles, however, may pose conflicts of interest. +For example, at the same time that David Koch has been casting himself as a +champion in the fight against cancer, Koch Industries has been lobbying to +prevent the E.P.A. from classifying formaldehyde, which the company produces in +great quantities, as a ""known carcinogen"" in humans. +Scientists have long known that formaldehyde causes cancer in rats, and several +UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 + UNCLASSIFIED U.S. Department of State Case No. F-2014-20439 Doc No. C05770951 Date: 08/31/2015 +major scientific studies have concluded that formaldehyde causes cancer in human +beings—including one published last year by the National Cancer Institute, on +whose advisory board Koch. sits. The study tracked twenty-five thousand patients +for an average of forty years; subjects exposed to higher amounts of +formaldehyde had significantly higher rates of leukemia. These results helped +lead an expert panel within the National Institutes of Health to conclude that +formaldehyde should be categorized as a known carcinogen, and be strictly +controlled by the government. Corporations have resisted regulations on +formaldehyde for decades, however, and Koch Industries has been a large funder +of members of Congress who have stymied the E.P.A., requiring it to defer new +regulations until more studies are completed. +Koch Industries became a major producer of the chemical in 2005, after it bought +Georgia-Pacific, the paper and wood-products company, for twenty-one billion +dollars. Georgia-Pacific manufactures formaldehyde in its chemical division, and +uses it to produce various wood products, such as plywood and laminates. Its +annual production capacity for formaldehyde is 2.2 billion pounds.

It +might have been early on, in +April 2009, when I visited a +series of gun shows in rural +California and Nevada. Perusing +tables piled high with high- +caliber semi-automatic weapons +and chatting with anyone in my +vicinity, I heard urgent warnings +of mass roundups, concentration +camps, and a socialist +government in Washington. +""These people that are purchasing +these guns are people that are +worried about what's going on in +this country,"" a gun dealer told +me outside a show in Reno. +""Good luck Obama,"" a young gun +enthusiast remarked to me. ""We +outnumber him 100 to 1."" At this +time, the Tea Party movement +had not even registered on the +national media's radar. +In September 2009, I led a panel +discussion about this book inside +an auditorium filled with nearly +100 students and faculty at the +University of California- +Riverside. Beside me sat Jonathan +Walton, an African-American +professor of religious studies and +prolific writer, and Mark Takano, +an erudite, openly gay former +Democratic congressional +candidate and local community +college trustee. In the middle of +our discussion, a dozen College +Republicans stormed the front of +the stage with signs denouncing +me as a ""left-wing hack"" while a +hysterical young man leaped from +the crowd, blowing kisses +mockingly at Takano while +heckling Walton as a ""racist."" +Afterward, university police +officers insisted on escorting me +to my ride after the right-wing +heckler attempted to follow me as +he shouted threats. +Who was this stalker? Just a +concerned citizen worried about +taxes? His name was Ryan Sorba +and he was an operative of a +heavily funded national +conservative youth outfit, the +Intercollegiate Studies Institute. +Besides founding dozens of +Republican youth groups across +the country, Sorba has devoted an +exceptional amount of energy to +his interest in homosexuals. His +intellectual output consists of a +tract titled The Born Gay Hoax, +arguing that homosexuality is at +once a curable disease and a +bogus trend manufactured by +academic leftists. Adding to his +credentials, Sorba has a history of +run-ins with the law, he explained +when I called him about the +order. +My encounter with this +aggressive right-wing cadre +seemed a strange, isolated event. +But the hostility turned out to be +symptomatic of the intensifying +campaign to delegitimize +President Obama and his allies in +Congress. The Right's days of +rage were only beginning. +Through his first year in office, +Obama seemed oblivious to the +threat of the far right. He +campaigned against partisanship, +declaring that there were ""no red +states"" and no ""conservative +America."" Apparently, he thought +it was merely a contrivance or +myth that there were people who +rejected science, demonized gays, +assailed minority and women's +rights -- or that they genuinely +believed in what they said. +Speaking of changing +Washington, Obama seemed to +think that the entire history of +politics since the rise of Reagan +and the Right and their strategies +of polarization was not deeply +rooted but a superficial problem +attributable to certain ""divisive"" +personalities, easily wiped away +with gestures toward +bipartisanship. His view of the +parties was that they were simply +mirror images sharing +fundamental beliefs but separated +by ""partisans."" The skilled and +devoted community organizer +could bring them together. +Many of his supporters in the +media, often part and parcel of +political wars over the years, +reinforced and amplified his +innocence, proclaiming he was +the one at last who could ""bridge• +the partisan divide."" Andrew +Sullivan, a disaffected +conservative who once called +critics of George W. Bush +policies ""fifth columnists"" but +now fervently supporting Obama, +wrote that the new president was +destined to become ""a liberal +Reagan who can reunite +America."" This optimism +pervaded the Obama White +House as the president and his +aides sought out Republicans +willing to vote for his programs. +After all, why couldn't we all just +get along? +In his autobiographical book The +Audacity of Hope, Obama +highlighted a key component of +his political strategy: ""I serve as a +blank screen on which people of +vastly different political stripes +project their own views."" Once he +was elected, conservatives +concluded that they could reverse +Obama's strength by transforming +him into a human tableau for the +most fearsome images they could +conjure. +Obama's multiracial background +was crucial in cultivating +resentment among the shock +troops. Those who rejected +Obama's legitimacy to serve as +president on the basis of his +background gave birth to the +""Birther"" movement that sought +to challenge his citizenship. The +movement's most visible figure, +and therefore the most eccentric, +was Orly Taitz, a dentist and self- +trained lawyer who had +immigrated from the former +Soviet republican of Moldova to +Israel before settling in the +conservative bastion of Orange +County, California. Convinced by +claims on the far-right Web site +WorldNetDaily that Obama +planned to create a ""civilian +national security force,"" Taitz +told me she ""realized that Obama +was another Stalin--it's a cross +between Stalinist USSR and +Hitler's Germany."" +After becoming transfixed by +online conspiracy theories +claiming Obama's family had +forged his birth certificate in +Hawaii, Taitz snapped into +action. She filed a lawsuit in +November 2008 with California +Secretary of State Debra Bowen +demanding an investigation into +Obama's eligibility to serve as +president. Taitz's plaintiff in the +case was Wiley Drake, an Orange +County radio preacher and former +second vice president of the +Southern Baptist Convention who +once publicly prayed for Obama's +death. While her lawsuit went +nowhere, and subsequent suits +earned her angry rebukes from +judges, Taitz became an instant +media sensation, delivering +heavily accented screeds against +Obama before friendly +interviewers from Sean Haimity +to CNN's Lou Dobbs, who Taitz +called her ""greatest supporter"" +and who was eventually fired as +an indirect result of his hosting of +her. +In March 2009, Texas Rep. +Randy Neugebauer signed on to a +Birther bill proposing that future +presidential candidates must +prove their citizenship before +becoming eligible to campaign. +The Birther movement had found +its voice in goverment and made +an indelible impact on the +Republican grassroots. By June +2009, 28 percent of Republican +respondents to a Kos/Research +2000 poll said they thought +Obama wasn't born in the United +States, while 30 percent ""weren't +sure."" ""Obama should be in the +Big House,"" Taitz shrieked to me, +""not the White House!"" +When Obama announced health +care reform as the first major +initiative of his administration, +the conservative movement +activated a campaign of +demonization -- transformational +politics -- designed to turn Obama +into the ""Other,"" making him +seem as unfamiliar, and therefore +as threatening, as possible. When +the president urged the Congress +to deliver a health care reform bill +in 2009, the Right staged a living +theater of political hatred, +Obama's dream of bipartisanship +transformed into a nightmarish +version of ""Marat/Sade."" On +September 12, 2009, tens of +thousands of far-right activists +belonging to a loose +confederation of anti-government +groups called the Tea Party +Patriots converged on +Washington's National Mall for a +giant protest against the Obama +health care plan. The date was +significant: Fox News's top- +ranked talk show host Glenn +Beck had declared the birth of the +""9-12 Project"" to restore the sense +of unity -- and siege mentality -- +that Americans experienced on +September 11, 2001. But this +time, Obama -- not Osama -- was +the enemy. +While covering the rally, I +witnessed sign after sign +declaring Obama a greater danger +to America's security than al- +Qaida; demonstrators held images +that juxtaposed Obama's face +with images of evildoers from +Hitler to Pol Pot to Bin Laden; +others carried signs questioning +Obama's status as a U.S. citizen. +""We can fight al-Qaida, we can't +kill Obama,"" said an aging +demonstrator. Another told me, +""Obama is the biggest Nazi in the +world,"" pointing to placards he +had fashioned depicting Obama +and House Majority Leader +Nancy Pelosi in SS outfits. +According to another activist, +Obama's agenda was similar to +Hitler's: ""Hitler took over the +banking industry, did he not? And +Hitler had his own personal secret +service police. [The community- +organizing group] ACORN is an +extension of that."" +The seemingly incongruous Tea +Party propaganda recalled signs +waved by right-wing Jewish +settlers during rallies against +Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak +Rabin and his support of the +peace process, portraying him as +an SS officer and as the French +collaborator Marshall Petain. In +1995, amid the provocative +atmosphere, a young right-wing +Jewish zealot assassinated Rabin. +The Israeli tragedy was a +cautionary example of targeted +hatred leading to violence. +Members of the Tea Party +""Patriots"" did not seem to care +that their rhetoric was irrational, +or that comparing Obama to +Hitler and Stalin was +contradictory and obviously +hyperbolic. Their motives were +entirely negative. By purging +government of the multicultural +evil that had seized power +through illicit means (several +activists told me they believed +ACORN helped Obama steal the +election), they were convinced +that a mythical golden American +yesteryear would return. They +had no interest in building +anything new or even articulating +an agenda, much less discussing +the merits of policies. The Tea +Party's primary concern was +cultural purification -- freedom +from, not freedom to. Against the +dark image of the president and +his liberal allies, Tea Party +activists defined themselves as +the children of light. The racial +subtext was always transparent. +The Tea Party's strategy rested on +a guerrilla campaign of chaos and +sabotage designed not only to +intimidate Democrats but also to +disorient independent voters who +might have supported health care +reform. The Tea Partiers were +convinced this would be an easy +feat, since they believed the +majority of the country was on +their side -- that they represented +the ""Real America."" At the 9-12 +rally Matt Kibbe, one of the +march organizers, told the crowd +that ABC News was reporting +that 1 million to 1.5 million +people were in attendance, +something ABC denied, saying +""ABCNews.com reported an +approximate figure of 60,000 to +70,000 protesters."" Then Armey +led the crowd in a chant of +""Freedom works! Freedom +works!"" Unknown to most of the +Tea Partiers, they were intoning +the name of a corporate-funded +Beltway advocacy group, not the +battle cry of Mel Gibson William +Wallace in Braveheart. +Contrary to its image as a +grassroots movement mobilized +to stifle the machinations of +Washington elites, the Tea Party +movement was the creation of a +constellation of industry-funded +conservative groups with close +Republican ties. The movement's +leading puppet-master was Dick +Armey, who directed resources +and talking points to the Tea +Party ""Patriots"" from his +Washington, D.C.-based +advocacy group, FreedomWorks. +Among the corporate clients of +Armey's lobbying firm, which he +was forced to leave as a result of +his involvement in the Tea +Parties, was the pharmaceutical +giant Bristol Myers Squibb, a +company with a clear interest in +defeating health care reform. +(Armey's other ""real American"" +clients included the Marxist terror +cult, People's Mojahedin of Iran, +which received funding and +assistance from Saddam Hussein +in order to launch terrorist strikes +throughout the 1990's against +Iranian civilian targets.) Armey +collected a consulting fee of +$250,000 directly from +FreedomWorks and $300,000 +from allied astroturf front groups. +FreedomWorks paid out much of +its money to an assortment of +Republican political consultants. +If Armey was the Tea Party king, +Sarah PalM was eager to be +crowned the Tea Party queen. +Just days after Obama's +inauguration, Palin abruptly quit +her job as Alaskan governor to +vie for the honor. PalM's motives +for quitting became clear when +she inked a lucrative deal to write +her political memoir Going +Rogue, signed on as a regular +contributor to Fox News, and +received $1 million an episode for +a reality show on cable television, +""Sarah Palin's Alaska."" PalM's +book tour, which sent her through +Middle America in a luxuriously +outfitted bus, resembled both a +presidential campaign and a +traveling carnival. +Whether or not PalM intends to +run for president, her growing +media presence has magnified her +influence within the Republican +Party. Yet the ever-expanding +Palin phenomenon was greeted +with hostility by Republican +politicos desperately seeking to +expand the party's base after the +drubbing in 2008. Former +McCain campaign manager Steve +Schmidt warned that Palin's +nomination in 2012 would be +""catastrophic"" for the GOP. His +doomsday prediction was backed +by an October Gallup poll +revealing her as one of the most +polarizing and unpopular political +figures in the country with a +disapproval rating of over 50 +percent. Unfortunately for +Schmidt and other party +pragmatists, those who approve +of Palin represent the heartbeat of +the Republican Party, its most +fervent activists, and cannot be +dissuaded from following her, +even if she is leading the party off +a cliff. +A November 2009 special +congressional election in New +York's heavily Republican 23rd +district was the first major test of +Palin's power. Along with a +parade of nationally recognized +conservatives, Palin endorsed +Doug Hoffman, an unknown far- +right third-party candidate closely +allied with the Tea Party, helping +to force a popular moderate +Republican politician, Dede +Scozzafava, from the race. In the +end, Palin's ideological purge in +upstate New York led to an +improbable Democratic victory, +the first in that district in more +than 100 years. After the disaster +Palin and her allies claimed +victory, insisting they had at least +hastened the purge of +ideologically impure Republicans +from the party. She went on to +endorse Rand Paul, the son of +right-wing libertarian Rep. Ron +Paul and a candidate in +Kentucky's GOP senatorial +primary, while Dick Cheney went +out of his way to endorse Rand's +regular Republican opponent, +Trey Grayson, the Kentucky +secretary of state. +Following the Tea Party script of +avoiding social issues like +abortion and gay marriage in +order to obscure the large +presence of the Christian Right +within the movement's ranks, the +self-described ""hardcore pro- +lifer"" Palin recast herself as a +libertarian concerned primarily +with issues of ""economic +freedom."" She claimed the +Democratic ""cap and trade"" plan +to limit carbon emissions would +harm the livelihood of blue-collar +workers, and she assailed health +care reform as a Trojan Horse for +""socialism"" (though she admitted +her family ""used to hustle over +the border"" to take advantage of +Canada's single-payer health care +system). But no Palin attack had +as much effect as the one she +blasted out on her Facebook page +claiming the Obama health care +plan included a provision for +""death panels"" that would +recommend euthanasia for +severely ill patients like her +Down syndrome-afflicted son, +Trig. With the click of a button, +Palin transformed the tone of the +health care debate from rancorous +to poisonous. +The source of Palin's ""death +panels"" smear was a practiced +propagandist, former New York +Lieutenant Governor Betsy +McCaughey. When President Bill +Clinton introduced health care +reform during his first term, +McCaughey falsely claimed in an +article published in the New +Republic and widely circulated by +Republicans, that the plan would +force consumers to drop their +private plans and buy into the +government's program (the article +would go on to win a National +Magazine Award and then be +retracted years later by the New +Republic's editors). Now she was +back in the spotlight, pushing a +rumor that would be voted by the +non-partisan fact-checking Web +site Politifact.com as ""the lie of +2009."" McCaughey's latest +innuendo was boosted by the cult +of political crank Lyndon +LaRouche, which mobilized to +push the rumor into the +mainstream. +In June 2009, one of LaRouche's +top lieutenants publicly +confronted Ezekiel Emanuel, the +National Institute of Health's +chief bioethicist and brother of +White House chief of staff Rahm +Emanuel, accusing him of +seeking to reintroduce Hitler's T- +4 program to kill the handicapped +through health care reform. +""President Obama has put in +place a reform apparatus reviving +the euthanasia of Hitler Germany +in 1939, that began the genocide +there,"" LaRouche staffer Anton +Chaitkin charged. Soon, +LaRouche's followers were on +street corners around the country +with posters depicting Obama +with a Hitler moustache. At a +town hall forum on health care +reform hosted by Democratic +Rep. Barney Frank, a LaRouche +follower waved one of the +Obama-as-Hitler posters and +demanded, ""Why do you continue +to support a Nazi policy, as +Obama has expressly supported +this policy?"" +Two months later, after Palin +whispered the rumor on +Facebook, prominent +conservatives from former +Speaker of the House Newt +Gingrich to ranking Senate +Finance Committee member +Charles Grassley parroted her +claims before audiences of +indignant Tea Partiers. Not to be +outdone, Glenn Beck devoted an +extended rant on his show to the +reality of death panels. Echoing +the LaRouche cultists, Beck +accused Ezekiel Emanuel of ""the +devaluing of human life, putting a +price on each individual."" He +thundered, ""The death panel is +not a firing squad. Rationing is +inevitable and they know it!"" +The death panel rumor served a +variety of functions, all useful to +the movement, but not necessarily +to the Republican Party. Most +importantly, the rumor resonated +both with hard-core libertarians +who resented the very existence +of the federal government and +Christian Right activists who +viewed the legalization of +abortion as a slippery slope to +government-sponsored +euthanasia. The hysteria it +engendered helped repair the rift +exposed by the Terri Schiavo +charade in 2005, when the +evangelical conservative James +Dobson publicly clashed with +Armey, the libertarian leader, +over the right of the government +to interfere in a private family +matter of life and death. +The slurring of Obama as a sort +of sleeper agent crypto-Muslim +helped bring the neoconservatives +back into the fray. The new neo- +con generation was led by Dick +Cheney's daughter, Liz, who +founded an anti-Obama advocacy +group, Keep America Safe, by +leveraging donations from pro- +Israel sources. Asked by CNN's +Larry King about the Birther +movement that was challenging +Obama's status as an American +citizen, Liz Cheney remarked, +""One of the reasons you see +people so concerned about this is +people are uncomfortable with +having for the first time ever, I +think, a president who seems so +reluctant to defend the nation +overseas."" With the libertarians, +Christian Right, and the neo-cons +seated around the same table, +united in resentment of the alien +president, the conservative +movement was whole again. +The experiments in ""Terror +Management Theory"" of Sheldon +Solomon, professor of +psychology at Skidmore College, +Jeff Greenberg, professor of +psychologist at the Unviersity of +Arizona, and Tom Pyszczynski, +professor of psychology at the +University of Colorado, have +demonstrated the connection +between fear of death and +intensification of conservative +attitudes. The findings help +explain the effectiveness of the +death panel rumor and +insinuations by conservative +figures that Obama was not truly +American and somehow +sympathetic to Islamic terrorists. +Indeed, these seemingly irrational +smears were guided by tactical +reasoning, calculated to agitate +voters with constant reminders of +their own mortality. Whether or +not Independents responded, the +rhetoric of death kept the Tea +Party crowd in a persistent state +of panic and rage, ensuring a +standing army ready to fan out to +rallies and town halls at the first +sign of liberal malfeasance. +Obama's first year in office was +marked by more than raucous +protests; there were several +disturbing murders committed by +far-right extremists. In April +2009, a 22-year-old neo-Nazi +wannabe named Richard +Poplawsi mowed down a SWAT +team of Pittsburgh cops, killing +three. Poplawski's best friend told +reporters the young killer ""grew +angry recently over fears Obama +would outlaw guns."" Later it was +discovered that Poplawski had +posted a video clip to a neo-Nazi +Web site portraying Fox's Glenn +Beck contemplating the existence +of concentration camps. (After a +characteristically thorough +investigation, Beck conceded +they were not real.) On another +occasion, the killer posted a video +promoting Tea Party rallies. A +month after the Pittsburgh +bloodbath, Scott Roeder, a +supporter of the militant anti- +abortion group Operation Rescue, +shot Dr. George Tiller to death +while he prayed at his church in +Wichita, Kansas. Tiller was +declared fair game by the anti- +abortion movement because of +his role as Kansas's only late-term +abortion provider. During at least +28 episodes of Bill O'Reilly's +""O'Reilly Factor,"" O'Reilly had +referred to Tiller as ""Tiller the +baby killer,"" a criminal guilty of +""Nazi stuff."" ""I wouldn't want to +be [Tiller] if there is a Judgment +Day,"" O'Reilly proclaimed. +In August 2009, a middle-aged +professional named George +Sodini walked into a health club +in suburban Pittsburgh and +gunned down three women. The +mainstream press explained +Sodini's motives away by homing +in on passages in his online +diaries describing his loneliness, +inability to convince women to +have sex with him, and descent +into chronic masturbation. Nearly +every major media outlet omitted +or ignored a long deranged entry +in which Sodini projected his +sexual frustration onto Obama, +whom he seemed to view as a +symbol of black male virility and +predation. +The day after Obama's election +victory, Sodini wrote: ""Good luck +to Obama! He will be successful. +The liberal media LOVES him. +Amerika has chosen The Black +Man. Good! In light of this I got +ideas outside of Obama's plans +for the economy and such. Here it +is: Every black man should get a +young white girl ... Kinda a +reverse indentured servitude +thing. Every daddy know when +he sends his little girl to college, +she be ... real good. I saw it. 'Not +my little girl', daddy says! (Yeah +right!!) Black dudes have thier +[sic] choice of best white?? +[ellipses in original]."" +In another posting to an anti- +Clinton forum in 1994, during the +height of the Republicans' +Whitewater investigation, Sodini +revealed that he had purchased a +bumper sticker reading, ""Stop +Socialism, Impeach Clinton,"" +from a National Review ad. A +year later, Sodini ranted on an +anti-government militia site, ""I +am convinced that more drastic +action is required to bring the +country back to the Constitutional +order that it was 200 years ago. I +don't think any group of political +leaders will achieve this for us."" +Whether or not Sodini's murder +spree was motivated by his +political passions, he was +pathologically death-driven and +fixated on the phantasmagoria of +right-wing imagery. In his final +diary entry, Sodini proclaimed, +""Death lives!"" +More than any other media figure +of the Obama era, Glenn Beck +encouraged the campaign of +racial demonization and +conspiracy that consumed the Tea +Party ""Patriots."" During a +broadcast of ""Fox and Friends,"" +Beck opined that Obama ""has +exposed himself over and over +and over again as a guy who has a +deep-seated hatred for white +people, or the white culture."" As +evidence, Beck pointed to White +House green-jobs czar Van Jones, +an African American former +community organizer who was +eventually forced to resign as a +direct result of Beck's crusade. +From there, Beck targeted another +black Obama adviser, Valerie +Jarrett, highlighting her ties to +ACORN while upholding her and +Jones as evidence of Obama's +""socialist"" agenda. In another +broadcast, Beck played an audio +clip of unidentified African +Americans referring to ""Obama +money"" as they collected welfare +checks in Detroit. Then he +showed footage of members of a +Kansas City-based youth group +practicing a step show, a +traditional African-American +group dance apparently +unfamiliar enough to Beck and +his transfixed audience that he +felt at liberty to claim the footage +as evidence that ""Obama's SS"" +was being trained across inner- +city America. +In September 2009, Beck +relentlessly targeted ACORN, the +Right's new favorite hobgoblin, +admitting that he intended to use +the poor people's advocacy group +to distract his viewers from the +health care debate. ""Trust me,"" +Beck said, ""Everybody now says +they're going to be talking about +health care. I don't think so."" (His +statement was reminiscent of +Rush Limbaugh's scandal- +mongering remark during the +early Clinton administration: +""Whitewater is about health +care."") Beck promptly cued up a +series of hidden camera videos +shot by conservative youth +activists James O'Keefe and +Hannah Giles inside ACORN +field offices. In the videos, +O'Keefe baited African-American +staffers into making statements +explaining that Giles, who +claimed she was a prostitute, +could obtain low-income housing. +O'Keefe edited in images of +himself clad in an outlandish +pimp costume to create the +impression that he was dressed +that way during the meetings with +ACORN; however, Giles later +admitted her partner had lied +about wearing his costume to +farther ineriminate ACORN. In +the end. ACORN was exonerated +of all criminal wrongdoing while +in a separate incident O'Keefe +was arrested and charged with a +federal crime after he and several +conservative pals disguised +themselves as telephone +repairmen and attempted to +wiretap phone lines in the office +of Senator Mary 'Landrieu of +Louisiana. Like Ryan Sorba, +O'Keefe and his posse were +movement cadres paid and +directed by well-funded +conservative outfits; O'Keefe had +been trained by the Leadership +Institute, the right-wing youth +Froup that nurtured leadinG, lights +like Jack Abriunoff, Karl Rove, +Ralph Reed, and Jeff Gannon. +While O'Keefe and his buddies +plea-bargained with prosecutors, +Beck basked in his formula for +success. His show earned the +hithest ratings at Fox News, +topping network franchises like +O'Reilly and Sean Hannity. In the +process. Beck's opinions became +firmly implanted in the nervous +systems of Tea Party activists. +""Glenn Beck has taught us +everything we know,"" a +demonstrator at the 9-12 rally told +Me. ""He's opened our eyes to so +much."" +But unlike the right-wing radio +warhorses who helped usher in +Newt Gin
