Hillary Clinton says President Donald Trump’s reasoning for ordering airstrikes against Syria conflicts with his attempt to ban Syrian refugees from entering the United States.
Speaking Friday in Houston, the former secretary of state says she hopes the Trump administration will follow Thursday’s strike on a Syrian air base with a “broader strategy.” Trump ordered the strike Thursday night in response to a deadly chemical attack U.S. officials have blamed on the Syrian military.
Clinton adds that the U.S. could not “in one breath speak of protecting Syrian babies and in the next, close America’s doors to them.”
A federal judge has stayed Trump’s executive order to suspend admissions of immigrants from six Muslim-majority countries, including Syria, and halt the U.S. refugee program.

Would Hilary also say the US is the best country and should be the only government in this world, ignoring the fact that we are already one kingdom, under one most high ruler’s authority? If at all possible, it makes more sense to keep people in their own land. There the can rebuild, heal and have something to call their own. Running away they will be tempted to pretend it didn’t happen and try and “move on'” without healing. The US prescribes more medicine than any other country and can’t successfully treat PTSD in its military after war. The us is prepared to take in another countries citizens with tremendous wounds, inner and outer? I’d say we in the US have a lot of faith to direct in the almighty God and many heart issues to work through before adding traumatized souls to our body.
Ms Clinton, you’re using the word “babies” to play on the sensitivity of people, but you’re wrong and
President Trump is right. He prefers to fix the problem
“on site” instead of bringing potential criminals to
the USA. Just take a look on what happens in Sweden and the rest of Europe. You comments are typical from left
politicians. The “left” is today’s 5th-colons in our
society. Please, retire and leave us alone.
Why should the US help Assad by removing from Syria those opposed to his regime? We should perhaps allow refugees to move to an adjacent country (Turkey) and enlist in the anti-Assad army.
How stupid can this lady be?
Trump cares for American lives (unlike her who gave the order to stand down in Benghazi) that doesn’t negate that he cares for Syrian lives too
The reason has already been given many times, we can’t let in people we don’t know that may cause harm to our country ,use your brain
Trump should allow refugees in this country provided they all take up residence in Chapaqua. Let’s see how she welcomes them to her neighborhood. What a bunch of phony frauds these libs are, they want refugees but nowhere near where they live
If this lady is really concerned about babies in a different country, why does she insist on having the US Government fund and encourage the wanton murder of innocent babies, right here in this country? At least Abortion in Syria is illegal!
They all hate Jews, so does Hilary.
Hey Hillary, this is not a compassion contest, it’s an efficiency one.
This year when we shall be chanting והקדוש ברוך הוט מצילינו מידם in 2 nites from now, this has taken on new meaning:- Having saved us from the clutches of Hillary & Obama.
Trump is 100 percent correct….its tragic and horrific when “beautiful babies” are gassed to death and the U.S. must do something… However, when they are blown apart by conventional explosive ordinance, its “Syria’s problem”.
let saudi arabia take them
If you Clinton and your miscreant former boss would have taken the steps Trump took back when you were in the position to do something this never would have come to such a catastrophe. But you guys were all talk and no action and so Assad and the rest of the worlds thugs laughed at you and continued their monstrous ways.
So for you to lecture Trump about his actions is in your words deplorable.
By the way who even gave you permisssion to crawl out from the rock where you were quietly hiding since losing the election? Stay there. It’s nice and quiet and nobody would bother you.
Typical of the lady to launch cheap political shot on the back of sufferig babies
Oh she cares about the children?
The only thing she cares about is VOTES, for power!
They can’t believe Trump is actually doing something they may work.
As YWN pointed out, the left said there was no more chemical weapons in Syria. Running on all the shows and declaring we have done it with out firing a shot.
Oh wait, these shrewd Lawyers/politicians stuck in a word “DECLARED” chemical weapons. You see, they knew full well that Syria had much more un-declared” chemical weapons, but, as always with the libs, it’s about using terms to fool the American (stupid) people!!!
Unfortunately this tactic works for them!
Hillary is history. Can’t she shut her mouth already ?
I am a Democrat, a liberal, voted for Hillary, and agree with comment 16.
