On other words: If you liked Carter, you’ll love Obama.

Zbigniew Brzezinski, ..., saying the Illinois senator has a better global grasp than his chief rival, Hillary Clinton. Jr Gravitas has just come off an embarrassing string of amateurish and naive foreign policy statements and Brzeinski endorses him! What a flaming IDIOT!
This is like comparing DUMB and DUMBER!

"...one of the most influential foreign-policy experts in the Democratic Party..."
Now that must be one low bar!
Carter's guy. Hell of an endorsement.
To: traumer
Brzezinski, who was President Jimmy Carter's national security adviser...And who did such a FABULOUS job! (*cough* Iranian hostages *cough*)
To: traumer
It was that sorry sack o’ sh*t Brzezinski who went to Amman Jordan in the Spring of 1980, met with representatives of Saddam Hussein, and conveyed to them (on instructions of Jimmy Carter) that the U.S. wouldn’t be heartbroken if Iraq were to attack and annex disputed Iranian territory (the hostage standoff was still going on), and thanks to this blundering attempt to pressure Tehran, Carter and Brzezinski managed to precipitate the 8 year Iraq/Iran War, with hundreds of thousands of casualties on both sides, which coincidentaly started the career of one little Iranian runt by the name of ‘Ahmadinejad’.

Somehow the architect of Jimmy Carter’s failed foreign policy doesn’t have much credibility.

In 1998, Carters National Security Advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski, gave
an interview which appeared in the French publication, 'Le Nouvel Observateur' discussing U.S. involvement in the Soviet Afghanistan War, also starting in 1980. When asked about CIA involvement in Afghanistan prior to the Soviet Invasion, Brzezinski replied,
According to the official version of history, CIA aid to the Mujahadeen began during 1980, that is to say, after the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan, 24 Dec 1979. But the reality, secretly guarded until now, is completely otherwise: Indeed, it was July 3, 1979 that President Carter signed the first directive for secret aid to the opponents of the pro-Soviet regime in Kabul. And that very day, I wrote a note to the president in which I explained to him that in my opinion this aid was going to induce a Soviet military intervention.
Further asked about whether this was a provocation of the Soviets to invade Afghanistan, he answered, We didn't push the Russians to intervene, but we knowingly increased the probability that they would.
As we all know, the Mujahideen gave birth to the Taliban, a separate group of Afghani warlords and religious students who broke away to impose radical Islam as the ruling party in Afghani government. It was also the Taliban that harbored and gave sanctuary to Osama Bin Laden.
Expressing no regrets over Carters pre-Soviet involvement in Afghanistan, Brzezinski asserted, That secret operation was an excellent idea. It had the effect of drawing the Russians into the Afghan trap and you want me to regret it? The day that the Soviets officially crossed the border, I wrote to President Carter: We now have the opportunity of giving to the USSR its Vietnam War.
Pressed further about regrets, Brzezinski stated, What is most important to the history of the world? The Taliban or the collapse of the Soviet empire? Some stirred-up Moslems or the liberation of Central Europe and the end of the cold war?

Z'biggy was Jimmah Cahtah's golden touch for foreign policy. Iran, the Canal, gas lines.
What genius.
