2001 memo to Rice contradicts statements about Clinton, Pakistan


Lying Rice gets gobsmacked in less than 24 hours after latest lies.

The Raw Story 2001 memo to Rice contradicts statements about Clinton, Pakistan:

A memo received by United States Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice shortly after becoming National Security Advisor in 2001 directly contradicts statements she made to reporters yesterday, RAW STORY has learned.

'We were not left a comprehensive strategy to fight al Qaeda,' Rice told a reporter for the New York Post on Monday. 'Big pieces were missing,' Rice added, 'like an approach to Pakistan that might work, because without Pakistan you weren't going to get Afghanistan.'

Rice made the comments in response to claims made Sunday by former President Bill Clinton, who argued that his administration had done more than the current one to address the al Qaeda problem before the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. She stopped short of calling the former president a liar.
