Your excerpt is from an article written by a guy named Jagdish Bhagwati. He is a professor at Columbia University. He is not a member of the CFR. But hey, I'm just glad to see a post in English.
Really pendejo?
Now, if the CFR is indeed an organization which does not take sides in any issue and is simply a debating and discussion society, why are the articles put out by them so one sided?
