”Last week, Obama introduced Zbigniew Brzezinski as "one of our most outstanding thinkers" during a policy speech on the Iraq war”
”[President George W. Bush] has a vision which can be described with two other words: Manichaean paranoia ... the notion that he is leading the forces of good against the empire of evil, that in that setting, the fact that we are morally superior justifies us committing immoral acts. And that is a very dangerous posture for the country that is the number one global power. ... The fact is he squandered our credibility, our legitimacy, and even respect for our power."

Brzezinski: U.S. must deny Israel airspace | JTA - Jewish & Israel News September 21,2009

...."We are not exactly impotent little babies," said Brzezinski, national security adviser during the Carter administration, in an interview with The Daily Beast Web site when asked how aggressive President Obama can be in telling Israel that a military strike in Iran is not in America's interest. "They have to fly over our airspace in Iraq. Are we just going to sit there and watch ? "We have to be serious about denying them that right," ..."That means a denial where you aren't just saying it. If they fly over, you go up and confront them. They have the choice of turning back or not. No one wishes for this but it could be a Liberty in reverse."...

..”Is Taliban a terrorism organization, or is it an ugly, medieval-type throwback of a purely local character?...Now, the Taliban does terrible things. I was talking to someone about this last night at dinner. And this person said 'yeah, but what about the horrible things they do to women,' and so forth. That's the painful part – but the same things happen in some other parts of the world. Are we going to go everywhere
and tell them how to structure their social questions ?" -On MSNBC's Morning Joe
Zbigniew Brzezinski: Terrorized by ‘War on Terror’ - Truthdig http://www.truthdig.com/report/item/20070327_terrorized_by_war_on_terror/ ...”The entertainment industry has also jumped into the act. Hence the TV serials and films in which the evil characters have recognizable Arab features, sometimes highlighted by religious gestures, that exploit public anxiety and stimulate Islamophobia. Arab facial stereotypes, particularly in newspaper cartoons, have at times been rendered in a manner sadly reminiscent of the Nazi anti-Semitic campaigns. Lately, even some college student organizations have become involved in such propagation, apparently oblivious to the menacing connection between the stimulation of racial and religious hatreds and the unleashing of the unprecedented crimes of the Holocaust. The atmosphere generated by the “war on terror” has encouraged legal and political harassment of Arab-Americans (generally loyal Americans) for conduct that has not been unique to them. A case in point is the reported harassment of the Council on American -Islamic Relations (CAIR) for its attempts to emulate, not very successfully, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). Some House Republicans recently described CAIR members as “terrorist apologists” who should not be allowed to use a Capitol meeting room for a panel discussion.”...
RRD:Unlike AIPAC,CAIR was a unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land case.And as to the "stimulation of racial and religious hatreds",is he referring to the Anti-semites whom he praised:Mearsheimer and Walt?Or the daily anti-semitic propaganda in the Muslim World.

”Brzezinki's appointment immediately came under fire from Harvard law professor Alan Dershowiz, who was quoted by the Politico website as saying: "It is a tremendous mistake for Barack Obama to select as a foreign policy adviser the one person in public life who has chosen to support a bigoted book." One of the most troubling aspects of Brzezinski's appointment for allies of Israel is his defense of the book, 'The Israel Lobby,' by American academics Stephen Walt and John Mearsheimer. In it, the academics attack what they say is an overly powerful Jewish lobby which is damaging America's interests. Their case has been accused of echoing traditional anti-Semitic thought and critics say it is based on faulty scholarship. But Brzezinski has described critics of Walt and Mearsheimer as "McCarthyists." In an article in the Foreign Policy publication, Brzezinki wrote: "Given that the Middle East is currently the central challenge facing America, Professors John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt have rendered a public service by initiating a much needed public debate on the role of the 'Israel lobby' in the shaping of US foreign policy." Walt and Mearsheimer responded by thanking Brzezinksi. For his part, Obama has distanced himself from the book.”... Yes Mearsheimer is a anti-semite. #tcot #jcot #antisemitism - fightingstatism

The Dilemma of the Last Sovereign - Zbigniew Brzezinski - The American Interest Magazine http://www.the-american-interest.com/article.cfm?piece=56 ”Terrorism is a destructive and extreme symptom of a widespread new reality of resentment, but terrorism as such --whether Islamist or otherwise --does not define the essence of international affairs in our time. It is undeniably a tactical threat to national security, and in the future a potential strategic one. According to official World Health Organization and Department of State statistics, global deaths per year due to physical violence amounted to 1,600,000 (2002), traffic accidents 1,200,000 (2004), and terrorism 625 (2003). But to make terrorism the daily preoccupation of millions of anxious Americans would be as if American domestic politics in the late 1960s and early 1970s had focused mainly on reactions to the threat posed by the Black Panthers rather than on the need to redress the denial of full civil rights to African Americans. In today's world the elevation of terrorism to an almost apocalyptic threat can similarly result in an under-reaction to the wider global context that favors the rise of extremist violence. The majority of states existing today no longer rule relatively pliant populations, and many are vulnerable to being swamped by populist demands that transcend their capacity to respond effectively.”
