Zbigniew Bzrezinski On The American Right

Filed in National by on December 13, 2010

Former National Security Advisor Zbigniew Bzrezinski did an interview with Germany’s Der Speigel and talked about Wikileaks and it’s effects on American diplomacy. The whole interview is worth reading but he really let’s go on the American rightwing.

SPIEGEL: Yet the American right is still convinced of American exceptionalism.

Brzezinski: That is a reaction to the inability of people to understand global complexity or important issues like American energy dependency. Therefore, they search for simplistic sources of comfort and clarity. And the people that they are now selecting to be, so to speak, the spokespersons of their anxieties are, in most cases, stunningly ignorant.

It’s hard to believe Morning Joe‘s Mika Bzrezinski is his daughter, isn’t it?

    Too bad there is a billion dollar industry set up to supply these dummies with simplistic comfort.

    Dan Ellsberg, Larry Wilkerson, Coleen Rowley, Ray Mcgovern and other CIA insiders support Wikileaks to the max. “If Wiki had been around before Iraq, there wouldnt have been an Iraq or Afganstan war”. They consider Bradley Manning and Assange Heros for Democracy. Wiki has delivered more proof and evidence against the colonialist, imperialist nations than NYTIMES and Wapo put together. Some Vets groups and other say the CIA/Mossad put Wiki in business and even have a telephone number in Weston, Va?

    That about sums it up.

    Don’t fuck with the religion of America.
