I think you may be misunderstanding the context of this conversation. Not only did she start laughing, but others did as well.
Seems to me the laughter was directed towards the other man's comments about the administration itself, not Iran.
By the way, where is this hysterical laugh?

I think you're overlooking the fact that.... one second he's talking the political jargon... then he closes with "we take them out". In my opinion, he went from "Business man" to "Southern boy".
I would have laughed if I was in her position too.

Did you even watch and listen to the video you posted? Clearly in context she was laughing at the comments the guy made about the obama admin. Everyone else laughed too.

You seem to miss out on a potential slip by the man whom said...the end of the day may be next year..it will be next year.
will be?
I don't think the Obama administration would ever overtly war with Iran when there are still some options left on the table though. People are simply tired of war. its noisy, expensive, and accomplishes little in the end.
But
I think there are very well laid out plans should that event occur..and no doubt plenty of hawks are wishing for it if only to make a cool show in a new theater.
I don't like the Iranian government. But, the western stance should be to simply support the citizens uprising...they are always on the edge of revolution, but rarely with any outside support. They can do this themselves once we back off and just give material and intelligence support.
Don't know though. what a mess.

I did pikc up on that, and it fits in perfectly with the timing. Iran conflict will be next year under Romney adminstration, but that is another thread
You are going to defend this evil abomination?
The man says we should 'take them out', which clearly hits the funny bone on Hillary because she first grins like the chesire cat before bursting into laughter as though the idea of military action is a joke. The video is what it is.

I’m NO FAN of this administration (to state it mildly) but I don’t see the point here. She was laughing because she’s the secretary of state and is being put in the position of having to answer that tough question. I don’t think she was making light of it….she seemed to just tow the party line…..at least that’s the way I saw it.
I don't know....I'm not seeing it. I guess I'm just used to their arrogance.
