Obama's Women Advisers Pushed War Against Libya

Robert Dreyfuss, The Nation

So three or four of Obama's advisers, all women, wanted war against Libya.
 
We'd like to think that women in power would somehow be less prowar, but in the Obama administration at least it appears that the bellicosity is worst among Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice and Samantha Power. All three are liberal interventionists, and all three seem to believe that when the United States exercises military force it has some profound, moral, life-saving character to it. Far from it. Unless President Obama's better instincts manage to reign in his warrior women-and happily, there's a chance of that-the United States could find itself engaged in open war in Libya, and soon.
