Fiorina outlines hawkish policies on Iran, Russia (US-enforced no-fly zone in Syria)
Concord Monitor ^ | 10/7/15 | MEGAN DOYLE

Should Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina win the Oval Office, she wouldn’t be making any calls to her counterpart in Russia.

“I wouldn’t speak to Vladmir Putin,” Fiorina said.

She would, however, rebuild a missile defense program in Poland and conduct military exercises in the Baltic States.

“I would guarantee you that after four or five or six months of that kind of behavior, Vladmir Putin will speak differently with the United States of America,” she said. “It’s how people behave. He’s a bully.”

Fiorina, the only woman seeking the GOP nomination, is the former CEO of Hewlett-Packard. She ran unsuccessfully for U.S. Senate in California in 2010, but she has never served in elected office. During an editorial board interview with the Monitor, the candidate outlined a hawkish stance on foreign policy, taking aim at Russia as well as China and Iran.

“Our actions need to start speaking for us for a while,” Fiorina said. “And what our actions need to convey loudly and clearly is, guess what? There’s strength and resolve on the other side. And Putin, if you continue, there will be consequences.”

Fiorina repeated her earlier call for a no-fly zone in Syria, saying she would be more aggressive in the Middle East than the current administration.

“We cannot roll over on this one,” she said.

Last thing we need in the White Hut is a half wit control freak affirmative action RINO. She’s so stupid she’s a danger to herself and others and should heavily sedated and locked up. I don’t know who I cannot stand the sight of more, this thing or Bush.

Israel is okay with Russian bombing, so I am too.

Imposing a no fly zone but allowing Russia to fight ISIS doesn’t make sense. First, that would be a good way to start a world war because Russia probably wouldn’t stand for it. And if they did, it would just result in Russians being killed on the ground.

I don’t see the morality in what she is proposing.

I bet Trump could build a wall around all the Muslim countries if we wanted one.

Yeah, and I think Europe is ready to pay for one if they don’t.
