Zbigniew Brzezinski is simply exhibiting some of the classical racist attitudes of Central and Eastern Europeans when he says that.

It is their opinion that ONLY European people, and white Americans, have enough intelligence and drive to actually conduct a war.

Anything done by anyone else no matter how damaging is simply not legitimately war in their eyes.

He's not alone, though, which is what gives rise to the impression in the United States among thinking people that the Nazis never really got defeated in WWII.

Muawiyah - this is quite a cliam you make: Zbigniew Brzezinski is simply exhibiting some of the classical racist attitudes of Central and Eastern Europeans when he says that .... It is their opinion that ONLY European people, and white Americans, have enough intelligence and drive to actually conduct a war....Anything done by anyone else no matter how damaging is simply not legitimately war in their eyes.

Can you site any evidence to support your characterization of Brzezinski? I'm pretty sure he (an most everyone else) would credit the Japanese with "actually conducting a war". Sinking most of our Pacific Fleet in a surprise attack is pretty intelligent, from a tactical point of view. I'm pretty sure he considers the Vietnamese to have fought a 'legitimate war'. They managed to win, after all.

He might not be my favorite politico, but I don't believe he holds the beliefs you have attributed to him.
