The Democrats and the Republicans profoundly disagree on many, many things. Foreign policy is not one of them.

Yup, the Uniparty. It's like 2 mafia families run a town. While they'd prefer to own everything, they know they have to divvy up the goods. As long as one or the other family is in control of the car dealership, movie theater, etc- everything is fine. Once someone new comes into town and tries to start up, both families go full force to put an end to it.

@@Ishkur23 exactly

I found it to be disturbing. Greed is a-political. Unless your belief is about greed and desire itself (buddhism). Capitalism supports greed and covers it up when it is illegal. That's not just these 2 women, that's over 70 years of US policy, if not just US policy. General Smedley D. Butler still wrote it down best in 'war is a racket': War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses. I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag. I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket. There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism. It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism. I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service. I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested. During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents. Note that it was published in 1933 - and not one thing has changed...

Smedley has long been the most decorated US general, to be clear. Not some lapdog...

She is referring to the Democratic Peace Theory (hypothesis) which claims democracies don't fight each other because their people (voting constituents who will be doing the fighting) have a say in not going to war. It does not make claims on state to state relations when one or both of those players are non-democracies.

Claiming Brazil no longer being a military junta as an American success along with South America and Africa too was some pretty wild historical revisionism.

That’s the problem - no guts to break that trust and ask what should’ve been asked - not even the slightest bit of pushback with 2 war criminals at the table. I’m still stewing at one an opportunity lost this was.

How about discussing how China is having a positive influence in Africa and the Middle East, often capitalizing on American mistakes?

as always been

Don't forget the Comedian showing great leadership and saving Ukraine.

Important questions? Like how much was Gaddafi wanting to leave the petrodollar involved in your decision to kill him, why didn't you do the same to the Saudis. Everything he asked was scripted and all their answers were propagandized lies if you look even a millimeter into any of these topics. Wake up.

Not just asking the important questions, but asking them well, and respectfully. It's not a punditry debate between political factions, it's a mediated and fluid discussion, free of hyperbole, with participants from both parties. Comedians, because of their creativity, are frequently much more gifted thinkers and speakers than are the reporters and pundits you see in 24 hour news cycles. There are so many examples of folks like Jon, but oh man is this a reminder of the trail he and people like Carlin have blazed for nuanced thought and analysis. Jon Stewart remains one of the most gifted interviewers of his generation. I remember the first visit that Powell made when he left office was Jon's show, and they dedicated an entire episode to the interview: that's a gifted thinker respecting a gifted thinker, 100%.

From the Jest and Jokers of old, Mark Twain, Charlie Chaplin, and so on into modernity that indeed has long been the case.

War criminals!!

Amen. We don't need a "conversation" we these people. We need trials.

I can't believe how far Jon Stewart has fallen

@No Description Available: it’s honestly sad. He was a massive critic of the Iraq war and he is letting these two lie. The only thing I can think off why is he doing this, is because he is getting paid from someone in the US government

I got my Associates degree in history at a community college. Thank you for working a crucial and underappreciated job! 5 years after finishing community college and I have studied in three countries, currently finishing my mastersin Italy and about to intern at a university in Istanbul.

​@@coffelt683 I really believe that US community colleges have the potential to be a tremendous force for good with proper funding.

welcome to the two-party oligarchy!

87% of civilians in Iraq were not killed by coalition forces (according to Iraq Body Count). They committed senseless carnage in large part because they knew people like you would blame their American enemies. How else do you explain such bizarre events as the July Soccer Bombings, which seemed to target no particular sect? The rage and disgust you should feel is that a perverse inversion of karma you enabled, by turning our enemies atrocities into a propaganda victory against their Western enemies.

That’s exactly what the plan is. To enrage you. Don’t fall for it. Stay centered. You are the eye of the hurricane.

Then you weren't paying attention before.

C'mon now, we toned it down after that, only burning civilians alive using napalm and white phosphorous.

It seems so weird to me that Jon didn't attempt to squeeze a little remorse out of these 2 Shield Maidens. The Blackwater guy, Erik Prince(?) got a softball interview, too...

So sad to see him do this. And accepting their assumption that policing the fighting anyone we don't like is for good reasons and OK if we can afford it and plan for what happens afterwards. It sickens me to see Jon Stewart do this; he was so much better.

Or just as astonishing; Clinton remarking incredulously, "What's next?" in cautioning as to when and where we get involved in foreign theaters.

The USA is the most terrorist country in the world. All of the wars for resources and imperialism.

It has been more than 10 years, people do learn from their mistakes. Look at W, he wants to distance himself from his Presidency more than anyone.

Condescending Rice, always made me feel like I was in that mandatory college English class that I already attended. She is a status quo professor. Like an Amy Coney Barrett. Total opposite of Hillary who brings UP a conversation to deeper thought.

They don’t give a sht about the perception abroad. It’s pandering to US nationalism.

As an outsider, it makes sense to my ear when taken as 'the country that's the current dominant Empire'. (But I'm not disagreeing with you.) I think Jon's comparisons to Rome in the discussion are apt.

This interview is anything but humility. The US cause as much problems and suffering as they purport to solve. I notice they didn't ever touch on the fact that Iran is the way it is because of the US. They talk big about liberal democracy, but liberal democracy is an afterthought, the US only ever care about which governments are willing to do what they want. Oh yeah... they make mistakes... notice they never really talk about any of their mistakes, they will always be the hero of their own story.

It's better when we create connections with each other - because our western politicians (except Bernie) are the lobbyists' wXores.

Someone replied to my comment by saying (in so many words) that my point is moot because politicians don't care about outside opinions when they are pandering to the U.S. Nationalist base. I don't see their comment here anymore, but that is quite right. So, thank you.

One of those women helped lie us into a war we got tangled in for two decades and the other felt entitled to being president.

You're right of course, but Jon's drawing the line in a different place. His goal is to get them talking without making it a puff piece and as a result we get to see both how intelligent and yet deluded these two former Secretaries of State are. I struggle to listen to HRC talk without getting distracted by what I would like to confront her with, so it was an exercise in self-discipline.

@@integratedboxingsystem8827 At the macro level, I'd have to disagree. Europe and the major powers were in a state of perpetual war for a thousand years until America became the sole superpower. The period of unprecedented peace that followed the second world war - and that we've enjoyed in our lifetimes - is precisely because America became that sole superpower. Never has a country with such an economic and military advantage over the rest of the world acted with such restraint.

You should read Enough Already by Scott Horton

Certainly lays out the facts more bluntly

Couldn't agree more!

Exactly, and even though they have very opposing views, they still can speak and work together. This is where America was the strongest

Loved this interview, different views and opinions, but very civil and factual, each one makes her point without negating the other. This is where America could be the absolute strongest ever - being able to cross the partisan line and work together

Sad to see Jon invite her on his show only to let her get away with this. He cut his teeth tearing apart the Bush administration on this very point. I guess after Trump the well-spoken, civil warmongers are the good guys now.

Because that may be what she really was told and continued to believe. It doesn't make it true, but it doesn't make it a lie coming from her, also.

@@J.NeiraAuthor If you work at Main Stream media then you are a propagandist. And if you interview war criminals and be so soft on them and align with their blatant lies then you are an evil.

Cut to Lauren Boebert and Majorie Green, and these two women look and sound like aliens, today.

This is what they want you to think intelligent conversation sounds like. These women, who are supposed to be on the opposite sides of the ideological spectrum, are actually aligned ENTIRELY. Their only concern is that of total US global hegemony, at any cost. For Condoleezza that was the deaths of 500,000 innocent Iraqis and the destabilization of nearly the entire middle east. For Hillary that meant destroying the entire country of Libya and supporting ISIS fighters to overthrow Assad in Syria. These women should be tried for war crimes. What Jon says starting at 25:03 is referencing those two events exactly.

Sadly just a reminder that even those who consider themselves on the left in politics are so far to the right that they don't know the difference. Hillary refusing to acknowledge the link between America arming the world and the trouble those arms cause is Republican 101.

Wrong this is what stablemates propaganda sounds like. This war criminals think the same because they’re both corrupt establishment tools and Jon disappointed me because he didn’t push back not even on the war in Iraq being illegal and the weapons of mass destruction was completely fabricated by the U.S. and UK governments to help oil corporations.

They had the best words.

With cordial interviews like this one, he takes cues from people like Terry Gross or BBC reporters. With hostile interviews where he's confident that the interviewee is going to lie, he takes cues from trial lawyers. In both cases there is a tremendous amount of research and preparation required. I think every journalist in this country should take note of what he's doing.

He is a journalist of the highest order, but if he admits it, he could wind up burning in fox hell, they could buy his contract! Or on pbs, and if he says or does anything the overlords there don't like, he would get the Rose treatment! After all pbs are the lefty voice and believes in freedom, not!

This is exactly the same as every other reporter! Not a single real question, just a platform for 2 of the most corrupt human beings on earth to pretend how virtuous they’ve been throughout their lives while laughing out loud talking about supporting dictators.

So remember when everybody was crying about him leaving The daily show this is why he left so he could interview and do what he wanted instead of having somebody look over his shoulder people never think about the long game

@@backstabingpike I mean, he did this kind of stuff on the daily show too, tho you're right that it wasn't to this extent. He left the daily show because he had done it for 15 years and was tired lol

...he's contemplating suicide a week from next Tuesday, 11:15p, outside his front door, w1 round to the back of his head...

Jon is the absolute best. The daily show was great when he hosted it but his new show is at least 10x better. Not only did he say it to their faces, he did it in such a humble and poignant way that they were shamed.

That part was awesome!

I agree these questions need to be asked ... But it's always been the Secretaries of States's jobs to be the point person for making hard lives-at-stakes decisions, and sadly most if not all have blood on their hands ... But now it becomes a point of conversation when it's the women starting to hold such positions ... These questions should have been mainstream with their men counterparts too -- guilt is so often put on women, when it should have been posed long ago straight to their prior male counterparts faces too.

@@marceybull There's plenty of conversations out there of trying to assign guilt to Henry Kissinger, to use another prominent Secretary of State. While I would agree that Kissinger has never expressed anything approaching regret for his decisions, it has happened.

He’s controlled opposition

No she admitted they supported juntas that fought against communism. That was after all what the Cold War was about- fighting the expanding sphere of communism.

I think Stewart wasn't talking to them to publicly prove them wrong but rather to allow the 2 former Secretaries of State to lay out their hypocrisies for podcast listeners. He challenged them both and gave them space to skewer themselves with their responses. My take away was/is-It's a good thing that neither Clinton nor Rice are in positions of power.

He doesn't have to. With the little pushes he's done, he's let Rice and Clinton make his points for him. If you push people o the level of these two with direct accusations, they know how to respond to that. They can even walk out. But because Jon is engaging in a conversation, they sit there and talk, revealing more than what they would if someone was aggressive against them

Agree!

This was a very disappointing interview, and I think it tarnishes Jon Stewart's legacy of holding power to account.

The question is asking for speculation and an answer within this timeframe. On the one hand there's a clear answer if you're not someone with connections to the government. On the other, you don't get much more complicated than geopolitics and diplomacy, and Jon of course knows this and allowed Hillary to take a small sample of why we're in a diplomatic "damned if you do, damned if you don't" position.

I think they know defense is what America America. Without our military capabilities, I doubt other countries would respect our diplomats. Speak softy and carry a big stick works only if you have a big stick.

Both of these women, their friends and their families are making money off of their “defense” contract stocks. Defense contractors own the Fed. They can’t say a peep to offend their corporate donors.

@@testingtesting8785 While that is true, it's not really a morally sound justification. America is constantly interfering with other democracies with coups, propaganda, giving money to the campaigns of madmen who they then stab in the back like Saddam Hussein, and economic isolation. When these things create chaos and violence, that creates a market for war, which is good for defense contractors. Basically, it's in the financial interests of defense contractors to destabilize the world. I guess the quote should be "speak softly, spread violence and ruin, and carry a big stick in case anyone tries to stop you from ruining people's lives." Not really as pithy though.

The other one voted for these cockamamie schemes that brought death and destruction to hundreds of thousands, mostly civilians, the majority women, children, the aged.

Isn't his most famous clip of when he grilled Judith Miller for contribution to leading the American public into supporting the Iraq war. I wonder what happened to him

Valid points. I think one question is what is the purpose of the interviews on this show. In these sort of interviews he has been trying to let the other person speak more. I agree id like to see him push back more how he has/does in other formats, but the point might be he is trying to put out these connecting threads and just letting the interviewees fully respond. Don't think it's as sinister as the implication here was

Mike, do you think Stewart forgot how to be confrontational? Of course not-- he soft-balled this particular interview for a reason. He wanted them to speak freely.

Wait for part 2 guys

Consider the liberal center demographic a show like this is obviously aimed at. You know before Hillary agreed to go on the show a pact was made for Jon to not inquire about the obvious stuff. And have you seen the Clinton body count??

And Hillary Clinton does not belong in prison? She and Obama wrecked Libya and Syria, she keeps fearmongering about Russia including spreading the lie that "Russia hacked the election" . It is that view of Russia as the enemy and the expansion of NATO that sowed the seeds of the Ukraine war.

I'm not making excuses for some people, but there is a lot more that goes in to politics than what meets the eye. For example, it's really not as simple as "let's stop supporting Ukraine and give that money to the people"

@Aden Lind what? Russia did not attack Ukraine "for their own protection". Ukraine was not a threat to Russia. NATO wasn't either. Putin just had a problem with the liberal west, but not so much a problem with the right-wing west. Which is why he helped Trump get elected

Here, here. I wish he had addressed the open slave markets in Libya after Clinton destroyed that country. Or asked Ms. Rice about the 1 million dead in Iraq. How these women sleep at night is a mystery.

you mean this time Stewart is the problem

Very good point!

@@daysjoursThese markets are flourishing !

for real!

This want an attack. This was a conversation. You don’t randomly start yelling at someone you are talking to. They are discussing the nuances of democracy and how it can just be a veil for autocrats. We know what they are responsible for in the Middle East and elsewhere, and we don’t need a rehashing of the same old.

Look, you can't expect the man to take a flame thrower to their faces... He's got a show to run, and future guests he wants to keep from scaring away. He did great. Period. He asked most of the relevant questions, many of which were toughies for those two neo-cons. The smart kids know what he accomplished in that interview, everybody else isn't going to change their minds anyhow...

Jon Stewart has always been an establishment puppet.

@@AtillatheFun

@@bbob70 I mean, isn't anyone whose career revolves around the mainstream? Some are just more enthusiastic about their devotion to the status quo than others, while others play the role of pushing the envelope, but always within the reasonable boundaries of the establishment. There are a lot of things that Stewart has done for our culture, and for disenfranchised segments of the population through his direct challenges to authority, but to stay operational while reaching the most viewers possible, I don't see how else he'll accomplish that besides keeping on good terms with said establishment.

That is heart breaking and I am sure very scary for you. As a Canadian I have had 5 major procedures in my life the last two, knee replacements in the last 4 years with NO COST to me and just part of our medical coverage. It has always confused me why the US considers our medical care as socialized when it is nothing more than a Canadian right for good health care, not perfect but so much better than many.

Voting for candidates who will implement some version of medicare is the answer. We have the freedom to do that.

And need not be there is absolutely no reason why Americans should not have good and affordable healthcare

@@janicegullett8779 In the US the for profit healthcare industry makes campaign contributions to politicians to keep them from passing Medicare for All (which has the support of 70% of the population). It's impossible to get anything like that done because the culture war causes voters to be easily distracted & manipulated. These industries, including big pharma, also spend billions in advertising each year on television. Every other ad on cable news is some pill for erectile dysfunction. They're the biggest customers of our "news." So when we have political primaries, the "news" smears any candidate that supports popular policies, like Medicare for All, & tells viewers to vote for the "moderate" like Hillary Clinton because they're "more electable." They don't really ever back those statements up with data, because the polling data shows that's not true. Unfortunately, liberal voters in the US are really easily manipulated by corporate media and progressives are emotionally battered if they try to demand anything. I don't believe change is possible in a political & economic system that is this far gone. The top 1% owns the entire political duopoly.

@@trishaferrand1395 ...it turns out voting is a cure for nothing...

yeah that how they change a conversation, of what really is the problem in this world. but that liberals for you lot of people think of them as an ally, but they are obstacle best example i can think of is california and affordable housing/mental illness treatments if u want to look up the anecdote how liberals actually act...

Bingo

Why, three adults talking about issues. This is the way it was before Barack was elected. Whitey lost their minds and they have not come back to reality.

Maybe you’re too young to remember but politicians in the US traditionally don’t have antagonism w press and journalism, you can disagree with them but politicians were transparent in general and open with the press or whoever. It was bad form not to be. Conversations like this were the norm. Accountability to press and public were the norm. The last years have been unusual.

Why that ?

Same. Corrupt neolibs like Clinton and Rice hardly ever deign to look down from their ivory towers built by corporate donor money long enough to recognize the existence of progressives like Jon. They fear that their voters might actually listen to him and demand change in the democratic party. What they don't seem to realize is that the voters are far more progressive than we were in the 90s, and their corruption and unwillingness to serve the needs of the populace has been laid bare over the last two decades. We see them for what they are, and we're tired of voting for the lesser evil.

@@willcerf757 I'd say I'm a little too young to remember. I'm not a child but I was in high school during Obama. When do you think that shift began? I would think it started around Bush Jr. or Clinton times, but I don't have the memory or age to state that convincingly.

I expected all the lies these two war criminals spewed. Jon acting like a spineless worm was the big disappointment.

Hilarious, you seem to think Rice is alone in having a desire to involve the US everywhere.

It was offensive that this interviewer had his balls checked at the studio door before this interview! What a hack j. Stewart is!! Gee Jon you can’t ask the war criminal Hillary why we left Libya a failed smoldering wreck with open air slave auctions?!?!?!? What a sad remnant of himself!!

@@magnetiktrax he didn't say it was just her but she didn't push back on going to war in Iraq where countless American and Iraqi citizens were killed and maimed

@@magnetiktrax she isn't, she is but one of many from both parties who support interventionist policies.

I don't need Aaron mate to state the obvious, though.

@@corbeau-_- Many others do, though.

@@corbeau-_- ​ Aaron is the person who said it and I didn’t want to be a Joe Biden and plagiarize.

Back then there was.

The "almost" is relevant when you consider that the two parties essentially differ over cultural policy, or what I consider, "window dressing." But where it comes to military expenditure, war profiteering, pandering to big business endeavors while throwing the American working citizen overboard, etc., they are very much the same party.

There was and still is, only the corporate party.

I think the flaw is thinking the two party will yield different results in the first place. The two party we have is just a vehicle and mechanism to achieve power, beyond that, it’s ONE American System and both parties work within that framework and thereby yield similar results irrespective of what party vehicle got you into power.

Back then there was . This is funny .👍

The look of hillary when jon started to talk about Libya, seems like she was entertaining the idea of having jon "eliminated"...

I meant "that country!"

Democracy has been spread pretty f'ing thin under these two. John giving a platform to them without asking the real questions was as bad as Bill Maher's interview with Benjamin Netanyahu and accepting everything he said as fact. Super disappointed with John helping rehabilitate these literal war criminals (not my opinion, the legal definition under the UN), WHY!?!?!

He’s controlled opposition

I understand what you mean and agree somewhat but I think there can be a distinction. Authoritarianism at home can be very different from authoritarianism abroad, and they don’t always go hand in hand.

@@butternutsauce usually is, but still, I'm not from the states...I can see only a one-sided USA raping every country they can of resources and free will...getting them addicted to the dollar as currency...spreading freedom - USA freedom... Africom is the next stage...

@@mariojanaf5474 You’re not wrong at all

No it cant. People seem to forget what authoriteriaism in America has done. Our government has been targeting groups inside our country in the same way it does those outside. We just as a reflex seem to have these "its not what it is" goggles we put on when at home. MLK and Malcolm X were just individual acts of violence. But an Iranian girl gets killed is from the very top of the government there. Our allies are carrying out terror attacks in europe. But we are under the patriot act in the U.S. to protect us from terror. Our government has been lying to us since its creation. But we act loke abused children running into the arms of their abusive parents.

The international stage still relies on a balance of power. In spite of events in recent years, people around the world still appreciate American strength and look to us for leadership.

All nations, not just empires, will die eventually. How can something that did not exist in the beginning of time see the end of time?

@@CK-ur2ev is that a quote from somewhere? Sounds like a very interesting viewpoint of time

@@CK-ur2ev That's the project, man. Let's see how far we can take this thing.

America is not an empire. An empire doesn't say conquer a country like Japan, put a gun to their heads, and then say "Japan, destroy our auto industry." An empire doesn't conquer a country like Iraq and then say "Iraq, elect Sadrists into parliament, deny us the right to keep any permanent bases in your country in 2008 SOFA, and let Russia use your airspace." An empire doesn't conquer a country like Afghanistan and then say "Afghanistan, write Islam into your constitution and make it illegal to convert to Christianity." Etc.

Agree. Thank you Jon Stewart. Jon is serving a very important role in our current situation.

Bravo John, 👏👏👏👏 Bravo. You take a common sense and matters of fact approach to the larger issues at hand to make a point so that individuals who try and argue against those points can't really defend their stances and sound sincere doing it. It's a talent and you have it my friend.

Stewart is a fraud-his Dad worked for Dept of Treasury& his brother was a WallstreetCOO. He’s a plant to deflect and divide Americans-he especially pushes racial division. Why? Because if poor white&black people are busy blaming each other they won’t blame the Ruling Class who run things. Has JS ever once mentioned the NSA, the CFR, the Federal Reserve, the Trilateral Commission, Central Banks, Darpa...??? Nope: and he won’t because he’ll virtue signal by claiming he supports Veterans but he never calls out the Globalists&Banking Dynasties behind all wars.

sure...whatever you say.

It was awful that he allowed the "we believed he had weapons of mass destruction"-lie to go unchallenged.

Hey look, MAGA tears, how ordinary.

@@Auguur moron, you can hate Clinton and rice without being a trump supporter. YOU are part of the problem.

K that was funny...

@@Auguur You think anyone critical of the military industrial complex is MAGA....grow up, fasclst.

@@Auguur I am going to start off by saying, I am on the Left. Not a liberal. A leftist. Lindalee is correct, They are both parts of the problem. One is a war criminal. Both are deeply corrupt. HRC and Bill destroyed the Democratic party with corporate money.

They never do and never will (and not just these two). It's horrifying

No shame. None. She's despicable.

I don’t expect much from psychopaths TBF

Or, some PUSHBACK from Stewart!!
