Cronkite said he believes "very definitely that foreign policy could have caused what has happened..."

And that would also explain why the Talibani blew up the ancient Bhudda statues?

[aSkeptic]

walter crackpipe?

[MoGalahad]

Dear Walter:
Repent!! Your time is short 'servant of Lucifer'.

[doug from upland]

What an ass. Bin Laden is not poor. It is a battle of radical Islamists who want to kill Western Civilization. Oil gives that region incredible wealth and everyone in those stinking countries should have a very good standard of living. Stuff it, Walter.

[Razz Barry]

The people in those countries who don't have adequate housing, don't have adequate hospitalization, don't have adequate medical care, don't have adequate education, they are not going to live forever in the shadow of the riches that we display constantly in our movies, in our travels around the world, in our airlines, in our shipping.

Walter should send all his money to the poor, if this is how he thinks. I, for one, would love to stop "flaunting" our riches by ending foreign aid. Just tell them we have to spend the money rebuilding the WTC & Pentagon.

[Samwise]

Will someone please explain to me why this man is "the most trusted man in America"?

[Spiff]

Spiff: Cronkite and the rest of the leftist media a "Revolution of the drooling morons against the Intelligent."

[MichaelP]

Walter: How many of your millions have you given to the world's poor? Do you think of the worlds poor while sailing in your yacht?

You are such a hypocrite!

Cronkite, a knee jerk "Liberal," always epitomized the idea of the "talking head." A man, with virtually no analytical abilities, he parlayed a voice full of impressive intonations into a successful TV career. But why would anyone care to have his analysis of world affairs?

There may have been a few revolutions by the "have nots" against the "haves," on a local scene. But the great revolutions of world history were always engineered by sociopaths in the leisure class, seeking to exact vengeance on their more contented associates for wrongs, real or imagined. (The American "Revolution" was really a counter-Revolution, against a sudden explosion of British meddling in our domestic concerns.)

The genuine "have nots" of the world, seldom have the brains, much less the resources and spare time, to plan serious revolutions. Walter is just parroting the line that Bill Clinton and others have taken up, to try to promote Fabian Socialist goals in the present exigency.

For a different perspective on the present confrontation, see The War On Terror.

"We are suffering from a revolution of the...have-nots against the...haves and that's us."

Mr. Commikite, I don't see you donating the millions of dollars you've amassed over the last 30 years. If your so God D**n self-righteous, then give all your money to the piss poor and the dictators of Zimbabwe or something. Until then, shut the hell up you senile old fool.

[PJ-Comix]

In fact, the al Qaeda terrorists were hardly poor and the vast majority of the world's poor do not support terrorism.

Osama Bin Laden came from a wealthy family worth BILLIONS!

Cronkite is an IDIOT!

[PJ-Comix]

country, all of these, most of these other nations of Africa, Asia and South America and Central America are very, very poor.

Saudi Arabia is FAR from poor and that is where most of the Al Qaeda terrorists were from.

Cronkite is an IDIOT!!!

[Michael2001]

The people of the world "who don't have adequate housing, don't have adequate hospitalization, don't have adequate medical care, don't have adequate education," Cronkite warned, "are not going to live forever in the shadow of the riches that we display constantly."

Cronkite forgets that Osama Bin Laden was a billionaire.

The poor bit is just an excuse. I had 13 siblings and we were dirt poor, we never went out and killed people who were richer than us.

[Jimmy Valentine]

Sounds like Walter needs to donate his considerable wealth to the needs of the state. He can have a small room in a cold water walk up flat for his needs.

Someone find a picture of Walter Cronkite holding hands with Ramsey Clark -- we know these two are soul mates...

[RJS1950]

Who cares what the worthless old piece of S@%t thinks? He stopped being any kind of reporter back in 68 when he declared on the air that VN was wrong and that we had lost it. He, like the rest became caught up in himself, his image and his democRAT beliefs. Hard to say if he was ever an objective reporter.
