"If he shares with me a deep dislike for the certain aspects of U.S. foreign policy, then I'm not going to spurn any endorsement of the book by him. I think it's good that he shares those views and I'm not turned off by that."Charming fella.

"I was glad. I knew it would help the book's sales and I was not bothered by who it was coming from.
"If he shares with me a deep dislike for the certain aspects of U.S. foreign policy, then I'm not going to spurn any endorsement of the book by him. I think it's good that he shares those views and I'm not turned off by that."
He's proud that a murderer agrees with him. I know I shouldn't be surprised, but this p*sses me off.

Mr. Blum is, apparently, Jewish. Osama and the other Islamofacists want to kill him.

"I was quite surprised and even shocked and amused when I found out what he'd said," Blum said on Friday in an interview with Reuters Television in his Washington apartment. It seems that he needs to add "honored" to his list. Sicko.

Actually, if we cranked up the CIA to where it was in the good ol' days we'd be in a *LOT* less danger. Muslim fanatics can't turn their weapons outward if they're shooting each other.

I think with this, I cease to be surprised at anything nowadays in the good ol USofA. A US citizen who is publicly happy about an endorsement from our mortal enemy who has killed thousands of Americans.

William Blum became an enemy of the United States after he left the U.S. State Department in 1967, abandoning his aspiration of becoming a Foreign Service Officer because of his opposition to what the United States was doing in Vietnam. He then became one of the founders and editors of the Washington Free Press, the first "alternative" newspaper in the capital.
Blum has been a freelance journalist in the United States, Europe and South America. His stay in Chile in 1972-3, writing about the Allende government's "socialist experiment," and then its tragic overthrow in a CIA-designed coup, instilled in him a personal involvement and an even more heightened interest in what his government was doing in various parts of the world.
In the mid-1970s, he worked in London with former CIA officer Philip Agee and his associates on their project of exposing CIA personnel and their misdeeds.
His book on U.S. foreign policy, Killing Hope: U.S. Military and CIA Interventions Since World War II, first published in 1995 and updated since, has received international acclaim. Noam Chomsky called it "Far and away the best book on the topic."
In 1999, Blum was one of the recipients of Project Censored's awards for "exemplary journalism" for writing one of the top ten censored stories of 1998, an article on how, in the 1980s, the United States gave Iraq the material to develop a chemical and biological warfare capability.
Blum's book Rogue State: A Guide to the World's Only Superpower, was published in 2000. It was written in reaction to the bombing of Yugoslavia, which, we were told, was done for humanitarian purposes. The book is in effect a mini-encyclopedia of all the un-humanitarian actions of the US government during the past half century. It has been translated into a dozen languages.
If Osama thinks Blum is required reading he's really screwed!

Everyone's missing the fact that this book was published in 2000. The DUmmies praising the book don't realize it is about Clinton's foreign policy. Our side should be questioning why give praise to a 5 year old book? There are many recent additions to the anti american genre. IMHO, He's dead Jim.
