Apparentemente questo individuo, a libro paga dei sauditi, non
dirigerà il National Intelligence Council, un organismo che si occupa
della politica estera americana. C'è solo da esserne sollevati. A
leggene le dichiarazioni sembra tanto simile ai signori che hanno
progettato la strategia della tensione in Italia.
In a 2007 article Freeman on the implications of China's success or
failure in integrating its people and economy, he writes that
Americans are too ignorant of Chinese history and that "Almost every
ideological faction and interest group in our country now asserts its
own vision of the People's Republic. Some do so out of fascination,
others out of dread." Noting differences on moral areas like religious
freedom and population control, he advises "we must not only
understand why each side feels as it does, but what it is and isn't
actually doing and what the real — as opposed to the imagined —
consequences of what it is doing are likely to be.
In 1991, while he was US Ambassador to Saudi Arabia, Freeman gave an
interview listing ways that Saudi Arabia had been helpful to the US.
It contributed $13.5 billion to the 1991 Gulf War effort and provided
fuel, water, accommodations and transport for US forces on Saudi soil.
Immediately after the war it rapidly increased its oil production,
preventing the US recession "from becoming far worse." He also stated
Saudi Arabia continued to insist that oil be in dollars "in part out
of friendship with the United States." He warned that with the
"emergence of other currencies and with strains in the relationship"
Saudi Arabians might begin to question why they should do so

con o senza Freeman, gli strepiti del tuo amato Bibi contro l'Iran
resteranno inascoltati da Blair and co...
comunque, vediamo cosa dice di così terribile:
"And what of America’s lack of introspection about September 11?
Instead of asking what might have caused the attack, or questioning
the propriety of the national response to it, there is an ugly mood of
chauvinism. Before Americans call on others to examine themselves, we
should examine ourselves."
"On the question of U.S. strikes on targets on Iran or elsewhere, I
simply want to register what I think is an obvious point; namely that
what 9/11 showed is that if we bomb people, they bomb back."
criticized Israel's "high-handed and self-defeating policies"
originating in the "occupation and settlement of Arab lands," which he
described as "inherently violent."
he believed "US-Arab relations matter greatly to my country and
because, unlike many in Washington, I do not believe in diplomacy-free
foreign policy and have a healthy regard for what is now derided as
“reality-based analysis.”
"Al Qaeda has played us with the finesse of a matador exhausting a
great bull by guiding it into unproductive lunges."
the 2003 invasion of Iraq "transformed an intervention in Afghanistan
most Muslims had supported into what looks to them like a wider war
against Islam."
US had "embraced Israel’s enemies as our own" and that Arabs had
"responded by equating Americans with Israelis as their
enemies." (NDG: lo ha detto lo stesso Bin Laden, che l'idea
dell'attentato alle torri gli venne dalla visione di Beirut rasa al
suolo dall'"autodifesa" di quel pacifista di Begin, così per dire)
Charging the US now backed Israel’s "efforts to pacify its captive and
increasingly ghettoized Arab populations" and to "seize ever more Arab
land for its colonists.
dov'è che erra?
quanto alla chutzpah di chi lo critica, basti e avanzi quest'articolo:

dove si spiega che il principale accusatore di Freeman è un tizio
sotto accusa di spionaggio pro israeliano. Chi sostiene questi
criminali non è un sionista, è un mafioso e basta...
