Propaganda Redux Take it from this old KGB hand: The left is abetting America's enemies with its intemperate attacks on President Bush.

BY ION MIHAI PACEPA Tuesday, August 7, 2007 12:01 a.m.

During last week's two-day summit, British Prime Minister Gordon Brown thanked President Bush for leading the global war on terror. Mr. Brown acknowledged "the debt the world owes to the U.S. for its leadership in this fight against international terrorism" and vowed to follow Winston Churchill's lead and make Britain's ties with America even stronger.

Mr. Brown's statements elicited anger from many of Mr. Bush's domestic detractors, who claim the president concocted the war on terror for personal gain. But as someone who escaped from communist Romania--with two death sentences on his head--in order to become a citizen of this great country, I have a hard time understanding why some of our top political leaders can dare in a time of war to call our commander in chief a "liar," a "deceiver" and a "fraud."

I spent decades scrutinizing the U.S. from Europe, and I learned that international respect for America is directly proportional to America's own respect for its president.

My father spent most of his life working for General Motors in Romania and had a picture of President Truman in our house in Bucharest. While "America" was a vague place somewhere thousands of miles away, he was her tangible symbol. For us, it was he who had helped save civilization from the Nazi barbarians, and it was he who helped restore our freedom after the war--if only for a brief while. We learned that America loved Truman, and we loved America. It was as simple as that.

Later, when I headed Romania's intelligence....

I’ll bump your ping. I have heard it mentioned on a few talk shows, and have mailed a link to it at Opinion Journal to some friends. His use of John Kerry’s own words is not coincidental, I would bet.

Albion ... if you REALLY want this thread and the Pacepa article to be read, ask the moderator to rewrite the headline to something like “Anna Nicole Smith and Propaganda Redux .......”

LOL!! Sad but true!

Sowing the seeds of anti-Americanism by discrediting the American president was one of the main tasks of the Soviet-bloc intelligence community during the years I worked at its top levels. This same strategy is at work today, but it is regarded as bad manners to point out the Soviet parallels.

It sure still exists in the US of A. All one has to do is look closely at who MoveOn.org and ANSWER.org really are. Watch what kind of literature is passed out.

I have believed for a long time that many democratic senators and representatives are just traitors.

It is obvious to many that they have caused the deaths of many of our soldiers.

The only legal solution is trials, convictions and executions.
