The Libya Gamble: Inside Hillary Clinton's Push for War & the Making of a Failed State

On today's Democracy Now:

The New York Times has published a major two-part exposé titled "The Libya Gamble" on how then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton pushed President Obama to begin bombing Libya five years ago this month.
