Clinton dodges question on declaring ‘war’ on IS
Clinton is deflecting a question of whether she would declare war on the militant group.
The former secretary says the United States has to beef up its intelligence capabilities. She says, “It is difficult finding intelligence that is actionable, but we have to keep on trying. … There’s a lot of work we need to keep doing.”
Her rival Bernie Sanders interrupts, suggesting that too little of the existing US military budget of $600 billion is used to fight “international terrorism.”
Instead, Sanders complains that too much is spent to maintain nuclear weapons that he sees as part of the US military strategy of the last century.
