11/6/04 Time for US to come to terms with 'humiliation' in Iran - Brzezinski London, Nov. 6, IRNA -- Former National Security Adviser to the Carter Administration, Zbigniew Brzezinski, suggested Saturday that the US should finally comes to terms with the takeover of the American Embassy in Iran after 25 years. It is time to start closing that chapter of "humilitation" that Americans felt so strongly about instead of remaining haunted by the memories, Brzezinski said.
In an interview with the Financial Times, he believed that there must eventually be "some accommodation" and that the west may even have to learn to live with Iran as a nuclear power as it did with China and later with India and Pakistan.
The aide, who served President Jimmy Carter during the takeover of the US Embassy following the Islamic Revolution in Iran, was questioned on the differences between the US and the European Union approach to Iran's nuclear program.
He said that he feared a second Bush administration will "be very much inclined to use force" to deal with what it sees as a threat posed by Iran hostile to the US and Israel.

...he's wringing his hands again.
Actually, I think it's the ayatollahs who should come around. They still use the term "Great Satan" to demonize an entire country. They deserve the "Axis of Evil" sobriquet. Of course all those hysterical liberals who are screaming about a supposed Christian "theocracy" in this country couldn't care less about the havoc wrought on a people by a true theocracy like the Iranian government.
This ass was NSA when I left the Army and got my Political Science degree, and I had to read his ramblings for three years. He was nuts then, and it's gotten worse.
The Nixon-Carter-Reagan-Bush-Clinton years of appeasement and vascillation in he face of Arabia have now ushered in WW4.
Well Carter's mouthpiece opens up and spouts out this garbage. It was because of him ans his bosses (Carter) policies that we are now in this clusterf**k.

Pretty much sums up his credentials.
exactly!! and these two will probably be rushing to Arafats funeral
I stopped reading there.
Uhhh.... A bunch of militant thigs ambushed an unguarded embassy. There's no humiliation, just disgust at how these Muslims are so closely alligned with primates in terms of morality.
No. We don't.
WHAT A DEFEATIST!!
We are NOT going to "get used to" any country that shouldn't have nuclear weapons, much less a country of militant fanatics. Get that straight, buddy.
Second of all, the only "coming to terms" that needs to be made is by you and your fellow administration.
And to think I used to have such respect for this man. And then I actually read what he's said and woke up.
BUM!!
Probably Stansfield Turner will attend as well.
