At several hundred pages, the Starr Report dwarfed the capacity of a print edition, plus everyone wanted to skip to the dirty stuff.' -T.A. Frank, journalist…, Vanity Fair, September 3, 2018 The Starr Report-Referral from Independent Counsel Kenneth W. Starr Regarding President Clinton was released in September 1998 to Congress. After a four-year investigation into an array of issues related to President Bill Clinton's pre-presidency financial dealings, alleged abuses by the White House, and Clinton's conduct as a defendant in a sexual harassment lawsuit, it was especially Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky, a former White House intern, that caused this report to conclude there were 11 grounds for impeaching President Clinton, including perjury, obstruction of justice, witness tampering, and abuse of power.On December 19, 1998, Clinton became the second American president to be impeached by the House of Representatives (the other was Andrew Johnson in 1868). On February 12, 1999 Clinton was acquitted of the charges against him, when the Senate failed to convict him by the necessary two-thirds majority vote.This edition contains Volume II-the Referral from Independent Counsel Kenneth W. Starr, House Document No. 105-310.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - ' .the World-War was no longer a momentary constellation of casual facts due to national sentiments, personal influences, or economic tendencies, .but the type of a historical change of phase occurring within a great historical organism of definable compass at the point preordained for it…hundreds of years ago.' --Oswald Spengler, Decline of the West Vol. I, 1914The Decline of the West, Volume I: Form and Actuality, by German historian Oswald Spengler, originally published in German as Der Untergang des Abendlandes (Vol. I in 1918), became an instant success in Germany after its defeat in World War I. Spengler's description of the end of the Western world and the implication that Germany was part of this larger historical process resonated with the German readers. He described great cultures following a cycle from inception to expansion followed by death. By understanding this cycle, one could reconstruct the past and predict the future. He specifically predicted that in the final stage of Western civilization, in the 20th century, Caesarism, a new and overpowering leadership would arise, replacing individualism, liberalism and democracy.Even though this book was criticized by scholars, it became a bestseller in the 1920s and laid the foundation for the social cycle theory, which states that stages of history generally repeat themselves in cycles.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - '[The contents of this report] should fundamentally change the way you view Benghazi.' --Trey Gowdy, Committee Chairman, June, 2016On September 11, 2012, an attack occurred against two US government facilities in Benghazi, Libya. As a result of these attacks, the US Ambassador to Libya, J.… Christopher Stevens, died (the first US ambassador killed since 1979), as well as three other Americans. Controversy arose about whether the attacks were committed spontaneously or were premeditated, and whether the US government's response was adequate.Ten investigations followed into whether high-ranking US government officials, including Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, had acted improperly. The most important investigation was handled by the Republican-controlled US House Select Committee on Events Surrounding the 2012 Terrorist Attack in Benghazi.It issued nearly 1,000 pages in The Benghazi Report--with Additional and Minority Views in June 2016 and criticized the Obama Administration's handling of the attacks. It concluded that the State Department failed to protect US diplomats in Libya. Clinton, who at the time of the release of this report was the Democratic presidential candidate dismissed the findings of this report as did the Democrats on the House Select Committee in their minority report, included in the report.
