Hillary Clinton: Israeli Settlements 'Illegitimate'

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called Israeli settlements "illegitimate" shortly before the United States vetoed a United Nations Security Council resolution condemning continued Israeli settlement expansion as illegal.

In an exclusive interview with "This Week" anchor Christiane Amanpour taped on Friday afternoon, Clinton said, "I think it is absolutely clear to say, number one, that it's been American policy for many years that settlements were illegitimate and it is the continuing goal and highest priority of the Obama administration to keep working toward a two-state solution with both Israelis and Palestinians."

The U.N. resolution failed as a result of the United States' veto.

Since you asked me to.... Hillary is an opportunist that happened to be the spouse of an elected President. Nothing more, nothing less. Take away her current checkbook and she's simply another woman (not to mean that women are bad). :>}

Uh, where are ANY jobs?
