Tom Malinowski served on President Clinton’s National Security Council
staff, then became Washington director of Human Rights Watch, and then
for the last term of President Obama’s administration, as assistant
secretary of state for human rights. In other words, he had a front row
seat for the debate over whether and how we should intervene to help the
millions of innocent civilians caught in the civil war in Syria, how we
should respond to the Arab spring, to the war between Russia and
Ukraine.
