Too passive regarding international security. Too self-satisfied, it acts as if its central political goal is to become the worlds most comfortable retirement home. Too set in its ways, it fears multicultural diversity  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) The attitude of the American public toward the external projection of American power has been much more ambivalent. The public supported America’s engagement in World War II largely because of the shock effect of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) I encouraged the Chinese to support Pol Pot. I encouraged the Thailand|Thai to help the Khmer Rouge. The question was how to help the Cambodian people. Pol Pot was an abomination. We could never support him. But China could  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) The mistakes of the Iraq war are not only tactical and strategic, but historical. It is essentially a war of colonialism, attempted in the post-colonial age  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) But if Russia is to be part of this larger zone of peace it cannot bring into it its imperial baggage. It cannot bring into it a policy of genocide against the Chechens, and cannot kill journalists, and it cannot repress the mass media  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) Let’s face it: The Jewish community is the most active political community in American society  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) I never exploited my father’s role in helping Jews avoid the concentration camps  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) For people of different faiths to coexist, it’s going to take maturity, wisdom, and patience.

But it should not be translated defacto into a policy of support for a really increasingly brutal repression, colonial settlements and a new wall  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) In the technotronic society the trend would seem to be towards the aggregation of the individual support of millions of uncoordinated citizens, easily within the reach of magnetic and attractive personalities exploiting the latest communications techniques to manipulate emotions and control reason  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) One has to understand what the enemy is all about: the enemy’s history, the enemy’s culture, the enemy’s aspirations. If you understand these well, you can perhaps move towards peace  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) Because you can’t intervene everywhere, you don’t conclude you can’t intervene anywhere  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) To resolve conflicts, excessive ambitions and one’s own fears and aspirationis must be sacrificed  (Zbigniew Brzezinski Quotes) Not to mention the fact that of course terrorists hate freedom.
