Madeleine Albright, as US Ambassador to the United Nations, on the 60 Minutes TV programme, 12 May, 1996
She was responding to the finding of a United Nations FAO report that 567000 Iraqi children under the age of five had died as a result of sanctions. Eight months later, Bill Clinton appointed her Secretary of State.
You tell them Madeleine, tell them about the real connection between Jews and good Catholics like yourself....The script was written by Titus Caesar, even if you repeated it in your own life... You did for Serbia (which saved you and our family in your Jewish existence) what Cardinal Spellman did for Vietnam... The Georgetown Jesuits win again....
This man doing this interview is such a real gentleman and I appreciate his taste. Maybe it's different in other situations but here he was very good, professional and courteous, unlike many of the journalists here.
diplomacy is minimizing cross-cultural differences; discovery of commonalities; while presenting the clients (respective state's) position of which certain person's life experiences may gift to that process: Franklin, Kissinger, Albright, are a few.
There are certain persons that are uniquely qualified and by providence are in that time/era that may participate in the development of international relations to bridge those cultures into a positive growth for mankind- Madame Albright, is one of those persons- which should they be sidelined, mankind does this to its own detriment.
What a nice comment. I agree. I can't help but admire this woman and I like to hear her speak. It could be easy to judge someone a bit harshly if you have never walked in their shoes. Frankly, I wish she were back now to help us get out of some the mess we've gotten in since she left.
Oh, and by the way, being able to admit you were wrong and made a mistake is a great quality, unlike our present leadership.
She and her jewish family were saved from slaughter by Serbians who put their own lives at risk by doing so, during WW2yet she enjoyed bombing Serbia. They shouldn't have bothered.
She was aksed once in an interview if the death of half a million iraqi children was worth imposing the sanctions US (and the UN) was imposing at the time (Oil for food program). In this video interview she clearly says that was her worse statement ever and she regretted it.

@dule140 But then she would be charged for war crimes if she allowed the Serbians to kill thousands of Kosovars.
