Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Wednesday that "for months the world had borne witness to the Assad regime's contempt for its own people," saying the regime had responded to protests with "empty promises and horrific violence. The people of Syria deserve a government that respects their dignity, protects their rights, and lives up to their aspirations. Assad is standing in their way. For the sake of the Syrian people, the time has come for him to step aside and leave this transition to the Syrians themselves," she said.
Oh, sorry. That was last August.
Ah, here she is this week:
In an interview with CBS News chief White House correspondent Norah O'Donnell today, Clinton added bluntly, "Assad's going to be gone, it's just a question of time."
I guess Hillary will be gone too, at some time, but in the meantime, Arabs are being killed (and not by Israel). Do Syrians have time?
