Brzezinski should know about making new enemies - look at what he has planned if the Democrats coem back into power: A geostrategy for Eurasia by Zbigniew Brzezinski (America should break up Russia - strengthen China)

All you need to say to Brzezinski is one word - Carter. The most failed president in our time.

Is there any member of a past administration we HAVEN'T heard from?

This guy is a joke. He's the one who gave us these terrorists in the first place when they let the Shah and the fall of Iran happen. His record is one of incompetence.

While I sometimes like what "Zbig" has to say, the only main thing you have to remember about him is:

Zbigniew Brzezinski, national security adviser in the Carter administration....

The undiscriminating American rhetoric and actions increase the likelihood that the moderates will eventually unite with the jihadists in outraged anger and unite the world of Islam in a head-on collision with America.

Then we can stop trying to sort it out and just kill them all.

(1) Mr. Brzezinski was President Carter's National Security Adviser. That fact alone should make one take a very critical view of anything he has to say.

(2) Mr. Brzezinski is a Pole who was victimized by Soviet Russia and is consequently very opposed to any measure that might wind up helping Russia in any way.

As a Pole, his anti-Russian animosity is richly justified, but it seems to be a nonegotiable principle for him and clouds his analysis on every matter.

Mr. Stability/Realpolitik is giving us another long-winded excuse for doing nothing. It was the nuanced, sophisticated approach gave us 9/11. We ARE making progress, I'd like to know just where he gets his info or does he even bother to research. I am reminded of all the talking warheads on cable during the early phases of the war, blathering away while even the casual observer could tell that they knew no more about the situation on the ground than thee or me.

..."discussions on regional security issues like Iraq, Afghanistan and nuclear proliferation." I guess he forgets about the Mullah's command to kill all Americans, of any age or sex, anywhere in the world. So who's declared war on whom?

a worldview that fundamentally misdiagnoses the central challenge of our time

It's just words, no meaning.

Yeah, right. The guy who did so much to get us into this situation now gives us his prescription for how to get out of it - more of what got us into it.

Anyone searching this article for a valid alternative policy to our present one will search in vain. We need - uh - more alliances and more negotiation in Palestine. Thanks for the revelation, Zbig. Now go back to sleep.

Such a joint statement, by providing the Israeli and Palestinian publics a more concrete vision of the future, would help to generate support for peace, even if the respective leaders and some of the citizens initially objected.

Is Mr. Brzezinski delusional? On what basis does he make the claim that the Islamic world has any interest whatsoever in "peace" with Israel?

This clown doesn't even bring up the Iraqi elections that are around the corner. Instead of writing off the present government as a "puppet" (the Kerry campaign's disgusting and unpatriotic term) and the possibility that most Iraqis might embrace its successor, he talks only in terms of doom and gloom. Did this pinhead even look at what happened in Afghanistan? Rather, he seems to think that Iraq's future is going to be determined, not by them, but those nebulous outsiders, the "Arab street" and its famously impotent opinion.

Throw this NYTimes baloney in the dumpster. It's old and rotten.

Don't forget: as a Pole, his antisemitism smells from afar... Look how he speaks of Sharon!

What's weird is that Brezinski's son worked for Jesse Helms.

#1 - Israel, at one time, agreed to just about what this man just suggested.
It was categorically shot down by Yassar ishefat, who at the time was representing the 'palestinians'. The PLO will agree to nothing that includes the survival of Israel as a nation, as if any of the other Arabic nations would.

#2 - The European Union will not, and cannot, offer any troops from member countrys. France will not offer troops, or financial support, as long as the US has control.
Germany is the same.
The US will not offer control to any other entity, except the UN, and that would be the biggest mistake of all.
Remember Serbia and Kosavo? If the UN can't straighten that out how do you expect them to straighten out the mess that is currently Iraq?

#3 - GREAT idea to open negotiations with what may be the #2 place in the world for nuclear proliferation. (#1 being North Korea)
Let them stall and get the A-Bomb. That will surely tone down all the terrorism, won't it?

This guy is nothing more than an apologist for terrorists, be the 'palestinian', Iraqi, Iranian, or any other stripe.

Stand strong in Iraq, tell the European Union to stuff it where the sun don't shine, and let Israel take care of business.

Krauthammer was right: The Kerry administration policy for building "alliances" is to sell out Israel as quickly as possible. This miserable craven back-door strategy of appeasement won't satisfy our "allies" of course, but it will whet their appetite for more.

"...a sharing of burdens as well as of decisions should provide a better solution for all concerned."

Yeah, sure. That'll work.

Just how do we get the French and the Germans to "share" any burdens or decisions?

Bribery? Coercion?
