"The Grand Chessboard" author Zbigniew Brzezinski was at the head of a Rand Corporation delegation visiting Syrian President Bashar al Asad on Wednesday, 13 February 2008, as seen right below in this SANA photograph.

The night before this visit with Asad at the Presidential Palace, when Brzezinski and members of the Rand Corporation delegation were safely ensconced in their hotel,  Lebanese patriot Imad Fayez Mughniyah was assassinated in Damascus by the very people who are the root cause of terrorism in the Middle East.  As another great American statesman (and frequent flyer to Beirut in the 1960s) Sam Giancana would have put it, "Analyze that!"

Giancana's Jewish Syndicate boss Meyer Lansky would have considered the operation a classic example of "Chutzpah," which the Mafiosos defined as "taking a shit at your enemy's door, then knocking and asking for toilet paper."  Just imagine Asad, sleepless from the report of Mughniyah's violent demise, starting his day by entertaining these beaming Zionists from the Rand Corporation!  For those who need to know, the Rand Corporation is the quintessential pillar of the USA's military-industrial complex and a master key in the hands of the psychopathic Neoconservatives who want to dominate and rule the world.

Imad Fayez Mughniyah loved his nation and his people and defended them against a ruthless enemy, Gog, who has usurped the holy name Israel and occupied his land for more than two decades.  He, like any other rational human being, could not understand why the USA would condemn in the UN Security Council the 1982 invasion and occupation of southern Lebanon yet pay for the cost of this cruel and crazy military misadventure down to the last cent.

Whereas Brzezinski is made in Lansky's mold.  Moreover, their love of money and power and their pursuit of global dominance by full spectrum fraud and force are totally unhinged from the Constitution of the USA as well as international law.

Brzezynski's soft words hard upon use of the big high tech stick of terrorism will not lead to a truly just and comprehensive peace on all fronts of the Iranian/Arab-Zionist dispute.  Rather, this clever bullying tactic will backfire!
