Hillary Rodham Clinton says military action against Islamic militants in Iraq and Syria is "essential" and the US would turn away from the threat "at our peril."
Clinton, a potential 2016 presidential contender, gave a speech and took questions in Ottawa at a Canada2020 think tank event on Monday. She says the fight against militants will be a long-term struggle and says an information war on social media is needed, as well as an air war.
