There is not the slightest chance in hell that Brzezinski would have involved himself in a 9/11 inside job. Three reasons: 1. He is much too smart and sane. Whoever was behind 9/11 was stupid and deranged -- precisely the same kind of people who are *still* arguing that the Iraq War is a smashing success. In a word -- NEOCONS. Messianists. Wankers.
VMANN: brzezinski called for a "new pearl harbor" several times in THE GRAND CHESSBOARD. 2. He is too decent -- he wouldn't kill innocent Americans in order to provide a pretext for waging a genocidal holy war in the Middle East. VMANN: he can't even ASK a question that doesnt involve "sacrificing thousands of innocent lives for the greater good." "i encouraged china to support pol pot. pol pot was a madman and a bloodthirsty killer. we couldnt support him. but china could." and how about, "what is more important, a few pissed off muslims or the end of the cold war?" for brzezinski, a question is not of "historical importance" if it doesnt involve the sacrifice of thousands of innocent lives. he wouldnt sacrifice american lives for a genocidal holy war in the middle east. but he clearly would for domination of "central asia." 3. He strongly disagrees with the policy objectives which 9/11 was designed to promote and fulfill. VMANN: i disagree. he strongly disagrees with the hijacking of the "war on terror" into iraq. he WANTS it to go into afghanistan, as he states repeatedly and outlines in THE GRAND CHESSBOARD. in the clip i sent in, he answers luke's question by saying that the war in iraq "has nothing to do with the war on terror." THAT is his criticism. not that he is AGAINST the war on terror, but that the promotion of israeli hegemony isnt (or shouldnt be) part of it. Who are the leading suspects in any 9/11 inside job and false flag scenario? Simple: those members of the Bush 43 administration who have been the ringleaders of the Iraq War, the Global War on Terror, the Clash of Civilizations, World War III/IV, the Long War, etc. and who have been agitating for a war against Iran. Brzezinski despises these zealots, as do nearly all foreign policy realists in the Carter, Bush 43, Reagan and Clinton administrations. Regarding the item you referred to: if this is the video in which in an ignorant dunce confronted Brzezinski with a steaming pile of NWO cliches, then you really need to educate yourself more thoroughly in the history of American power elite politics. The Internet is crawling with half-baked conspiracy theorists who know next to nothing about 20th century American and world history. This lout is a perfect example of the breed. If you don't have the discipline to earn an advanced degree at a leading university, it is not likely that you are going to have the stuff to work through the complexities of deep politics in an intellectually disciplined way that uncovers the truth. VMANN: i think luke had a basketball scholarship. however, as i stated, brzezinski's answer to luke's question is that he opposes the iraq war because he feels it has "nothing to do with the war on terror." brezinski would quite clearly sacrifice innocent american lives if he thought that it would "serve the greater good." by which he means "conquest of central asia and monopolization of its natural resources in support of a neo-mercantilist economic order." By the way, I strongly agreed with Brzezinski's use of Islamists to help bring down the Soviet Union. Smart move. You prioritize your threats as they come up. At the time, taking down the Soviet Union was the best move on the board. Presently the greatest threat to the world is a toxic alliance of neoconservatives, Judeo-Christian fascists and Christian Armageddonists which is anti-conservative, anti-liberal, anti-American and anti-Christian to the marrow. The closest analogues to the neocons are Bolsheviks and Nazis. This is the group which had the most to gain from engineering 9/11. VMANN: they have the most to gain from the iraq war, it would seem. although the issue of the dollar as world reserve currency is in play as well. vigilius haufniensis
