Has Hillary Clinton’s theory of power changed since radical Islamic terrorists began blowing up our cities and cutting off Christians’ heads?

It was just a year ago that the now-Democratic frontrunner for president promoted exercising “smart power.”

“This is what we call smart power — using every possible tool and partner to advance peace and security, leaving no one on the sidelines, showing respect, even for one’s enemies, trying to understand and insofar as psychologically possible, empathize with their perspective and point of view, helping to define the problems, determine the solutions,” Clinton said last December at Georgetown University.

“That is what we believe in the 21st century will change — change the prospects for peace.”

Clinton told the audience women should play a larger role in resolving conflicts.

“It’s important to underscore this overriding fact: women are not just victims of conflict — they are agents of peace and agents of change,” she said, the Washington Times reported.

According to the Times:

Mrs. Clinton, who is seen as an overwhelming favorite to win the Democratic nomination for president in 2016 if she runs, pointed to the Philippines, which had been locked in a decades-long conflict between the Moro Islamic Liberation Front and the government before a breakthrough earlier this year.

“Hope for peace was all but gone when two strong women, Teresita Quintos Deles and Miriam Coronel-Ferrer, took over the negotiations,” she said. “They made inclusivity their mantra and thanks greatly to their efforts, finally a peace was brokered in a historic deal.”
