Just gimme some truth: Anatol Lieven on Brzezinski as the "Paranoid Pole"

["Jurriaan Bendien" <bendien@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

"The greater the influence of Zbigniew Brzezinski, the former US national
security adviser, the more unhappy we all should be. On a whole range of
issues, his thinking is not just wrong but almost perversely wrong-headed.
With grim, bulldog determination he snarls and worries at enemies already
moribund, and pursues false priorities up imaginary trees. His approach also
illustrates some of the key failings of his "realist" school of
international relations."

- Anatol Lieven, "The Paranoid Pole", May 1998 (thanks, Chris, for that
reference).

I'm sick and tired of hearing things
>From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocritics
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth

I've had enough of reading things
By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth

No short-haired, yellow-bellied, son of tricky dicky
Is gonna mother hubbard soft soap me
With just a pocketful of hope
It's money for dope
It's money for rope

I'm sick to death of seeing things
>From tight-lipped, condescending, momma's little chauvinists
All I want is the truth
Just gimme some truth now

I've had enough of watching scenes
Of schizophrenic, ego-centric, paranoiac, prima-donnas
All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth

All I want is the truth now
Just gimme some truth now

- John Lennon, "Just gimme some truth", from the album "Imagine".
