Zbigniew BrzezinskiI don't think there is an implicit obligation for the United States to follow like a stupid mule whatever the Israelis do.

Zbigniew BrzezinskiWhen it comes to Jewish sensitivity, I don't find the proposition compelling that non-Jews have no right to comment. We all have the right to comment about each other. And I object when people say that these comments are motivated by anti-Semitism.
Zbigniew BrzezinskiIf a new president personalizes a rather different concept of America and a different sense of America's mission in the world than has been the case with president George W.

Zbigniew BrzezinskiForeign policy of a pluralistic democracy like the United States should be based on bipartisanship because bipartisanship is the means and the framework for formulating policies based on moderation and on the recognition of the complexity of the human condition. That has been the tradition since the days of Truman and Vandenberg all the way until recent times.
