Zbigniew Brzezinski Quote

[President George W. Bush] has a vision which can be described with two other words: Manichaean paranoia... the notion that he is leading the forces of good against the empire of evil, that in that setting, the fact that we are morally superior justifies us committing immoral acts. And that is a very dangerous posture for the country that is the number one global power.... The fact is he squandered our credibility, our legitimacy, and even respect for our power.
