ROFL! It is unusual for a former secretary of state to attack an incumbent administration, but Albright and current Secretary of State Colin Powell (news - web sites) have clashed before. At the beginning of the Clinton presidency, Powell, then chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, argued against U.S. military involvement in Bosnia's ethnic conflict. Albright, then ambassador to the United Nations and a strong advocate of using force to end ethnic slaughter, is said to have stared at Powell and asked: "What's the point in having this superb military you are always talking about if we can't use it?" In his book, Powell said of the incident: "I thought I would have an aneurysm. American GIs were not toy soldiers to be moved around on some sort of global game board."
