Yeah, I rolled over when I saw that comment about “our airspace”. Look at it this way, this clown was a national security advisor, not some chump on the street. In fact, the chump may know more about foreign relations that does Brezinski.
As a native of Poland, I wonder how he feels about OZero’s change in our defense posture regarding it? Maybe he views Polish airspace as actually belonging to Russia since they did invade the country in WW2.

I have always considered him an idiot.
I also consider him to be a communist sympathizer.
This statement certainly proves both to any doubter.
Why anyone would interview him is a mystery to me.
Iraqi airspace...based on what I’ve read...belongs to Iraq. The US has zero rights to fire on any aircraft unless it’s attacking US or Iraqi forces. I’m going to make a guess that there is no mechanism for the US to ask for permission to shoot down aircraft, and we have no intention of making such an agreement.
I’ll add another problem here...we’ve added so many visual ID rules that if a US pilot guessed it was Israel...he might take his time in getting to the ID point, and then this long process of getting permission to do anything...ends up letting the plane leave Iraqi airspace.
In the end...the “Brez” lives in a mythical world where a bunch of college professors pretend to know something on world events. Luckily, he has a think-tank that keeps him paid and happy.
