Foundation big part of
Bill Clinton’s post-White
House life
WASHINGTON (AP) — When Bill
Clinton let the White House, he was
popular but tainted by scandal, strug-
gling to ind his footing. He eventually
channeled his energy into the global
philanthropy that bears his name and
is shaping so much of his post-presi-
dential legacy.
Now, he faces the prospect of walk-
ing away from the Clinton Founda-
tion. He’s promised to step down from
the board if Hillary Clinton wins the
White House in November, a commit-
ment made amid swirling questions
— pushed along by Donald Trump —
about her ability to separate herself
from the foundation’s wealthy contrib-
utors at home and abroad.
For the Clintons, the decisions sur-
rounding the foundation are the latest
chapter in an unprecedented partner-
ship of personal and political ambi-
tions. While political spouses — Hil-
lary Clinton among them — oten put
aside their own goals, never before has
that been required of a former presi-
dent.
Friends and associates say Bill Clin-
ton has accepted that his role in the
high-proile charity has to change. But
he’s also said to be deeply frustrated
with the criticism that is shadowing his
potential exit.
“We’re trying to do good things. If
there’s something wrong with creating
jobs and saving lives, I don’t know what
it is,” he said last week.

This image posted online by Islamic State militants
on June 14, 2014 shows Iraqi cadets captured
by IS moments before they were killed in Tikrit,
Iraq. Their bodies are believed to be in one of the
many mass graves left behind by Islamic State
extremists. An analysis by The Associated Press
has found 72 such graves in Iraq and Syria, and
many more are expected to be discovered as the
group loses territory.
search, The Associated Press has doc-
umented and mapped 72 of the mass
graves, the most comprehensive sur-
vey so far, with many more expected
to be uncovered as the Islamic State
group’s territory shrinks. In Syria,
AP has obtained locations for 17 mass
graves, including one with the bodies
of hundreds of members of a single
tribe all but exterminated when IS ex-
tremists took over their region. For at
least 16 of the Iraqi graves, most in ter-
ritory too dangerous to excavate, oi-
cials do not even guess the number of
dead. In others, the estimates are based
on memories of traumatized survivors,
Islamic State propaganda and what can
be gleaned from a cursory look at the
earth.
Still, even the known numbers of
victims buried are staggering — from
5,200 to more than 15,000.
HARDAN, Iraq (AP) — Surrounded
by smoke and lames, the sound of gun-
shots echoing around him, the young
man crouched in the creek for hours,
listening to the men in his family die.
On the other side of the mountain,
another survivor peered through
binoculars as the handcufed men of
neighboring villages were shot and
then buried by a waiting bulldozer. For the mass graves Islamic State extrem-
