I’m quite sure Brzezinski and Obama’s views on Israel are in complete alignment.
(Salon) — Zbigniew Brzezinski’s new book, “Strategic Vision,” imagines a world without American power. He envisions profound instability, faltering international cooperation and weak states falling prey to their more dominant neighbors. Describing the dystopia that would emerge if America goes under is a trick British historian Niall Ferguson pioneered. Unlike the jingoistic Ferguson, however, Brzezinski is able to envision China replacing America as the stabilizing force in world affairs. “I don’t think liberal states are more restrained or stabilizing,” he says. “The United States’ actions in the last 20 years, especially with the war in Iraq, do not give reassurance on that score.”
In a telephone interview from his office at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, D.C., Brzezinski has both praise and criticism for the president: “He was an improvement by a very large score over his predecessor, but he could have been better.” He thinks the Obama administration “should have stuck to its guns in promoting a fair settlement” in the Middle East. A longtime foe of Israel’s partisans in the United States, he says the Obama team “fumbled by getting outmaneuvered by the Israelis.” Then he gets blunter: “Domestic politics interceded: The Israelis have a lot of influence with Congress, and in some cases they are able to buy influence.”

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
How did this guy ever have a position of power and influence in American Government? He obviously wants America to be less, who the heck wants to pay money to read that. That he has the ear of the president and his daughter is an empty suit talking head influencing the public is a crime that should be rectified.
Ziggy needs to remember what happened when Stalin got mad...
50 million dead....
But then, again, that may be his mentor....

He wasn’t quite as vocal when he was in the Carter Administration. But it took RR to repair the damage done to our Military.
The crazed old Jew-hater vomits forth another pile of anti-semitic bilge.
Zbig is just another Jew hating, Hitler saluting dick.
Lets see...this guy worked for....the Carter administration. That means he knows nothing about foreign policy. So his opinion is worth about as much as his knowledge....
Looks like he added America hating to the list. It amazes me that we have come to a point where people like this are given a pass and tolerated. Every American should ignore him and his daughter.
As the article points out, Brzezenski is a foreign policy Realist. In fact, it is often said that Brzezenski, along with republicans Henry Kissinger and Brent Scowcroft, are known as the wisest of the wise old Realists.
The man who worked as Zbig's deputy under Carter also worked as Kissinger's deputy under Nixon and Scowcroft's deputy under GHW Bush.
This same man would later go on to serve at the Secretary level in both the GW Bush administration and the Obama administration
Do you know who this man is?
Zbig is just another Jew hating, Hitler saluting dick.
Robert Gates
Who is the loser?
You might be referring to Robert Gates....
You do not need to read further than this line.....

AKA Toilet think tank
Walkingfeather points out the connection between Zbig and CSIS. CSIS was very influential in the convening of the Iraq Study Group in 2006 and there were two members of the Iraq Study Group, Bob Gates and Leon Panetta, who would serve as SecDef.
Zbiggy appears to be a thread connecting the failed Carter foreign policy with the malignant Obama foreign policy: he was evidently Obama’s primary foreign policy advisory during the 2008 campaign!
His daughter needs a good spanking... heh!
