New Hillary Clinton Emails Show Expansive Role Of Sidney Blumenthal
By Josh Gerstein, Jun. 30, 2015, Politico
In her early months in office, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was in contact with unofficial adviser Sidney Blumenthal more often and on a wider range of topics than was previously known, a set of about 3,000 Clinton emails released Tuesday night by the State Department revealed.
While Blumenthal’s role as a provider of off-the-books intelligence reports on Libya has stirred controversy, the newly disclosed emails show he also acted as an intermediary with officials involved in the Northern Ireland peace process and shared advice with Clinton on issues from Iran to British politics to how to blame China for the breakdown of global climate talks.
A series of emails show that in October 2009, Blumenthal sought to draw Clinton into efforts to elect former British Prime Minister Tony Blair to the presidency of the European Council.
