Or, does anyone have a legitimate reason to question the validity of Zbigniew Brzezinski?

2007-09-23 16:33:00 · update #1

Brzezinski on Ahmadinejad speaking at Columbia:

"Look, if his views are odious, we can say so, but we have a society of openness," he said. "If we start censoring in advance what it is we like to hear and what we don't hear, we're on a slippery slope."

Zbigniew Brzesinski was National Security Advisor for President James Earl Carter III. CNN is not presenting misleading information. They are just using a senior national security official from an administration whose foreign policy record was abysmal. He was in that job when our embassy in Tehran was seized and the U.S. had to endure 444 days of humiliation while our embassy staff was held hostage. The only bright note in the Carter administration was the Camp David Accords which produced a peace treaty between Egypt and Israel. A pact which led to terrorists killing Egyptian President Sadat. Both he and Kissinger are dinosaurs. Fossils left over from the Cold War who have no inkling of how to deal with the current terrorist threat. And CNN has been trotting out the dinosaurs for years. One of my favorites who still shows up on CNN is Larry C. Johnson. He was a counter-terrorism specialist in the State Department during the Clinton administration and wrote a "brilliant" op-ed piece for the NY Times entitled "The Declining Terrorist Threat". It was published on July 10, 2001!
