Вы слепо ссылаетесь на крайне пристрастного и сервильного проводника американской политики. Фарид Закария один из самых мерзких бушевских подголосков.
Farid Zakaria, editor of Newsweek International, is a typical American republican who places personal liberty high in the order of priority, way above the need of democratic politics. Zakaria hails from India, has a Muslim name, and has no com-punction in manufacturing intellectual apologies for the aggressive neoliberalism of his adopted country. American conservatives could not have wished for a better poster-boy for their post-11 September game plan in West Asia.
On one of his tours of duty to New Delhi, recalls Zakaria, “A friend of my father’s took me aside and he said, ‘I want you to know how proud we all are of you.’ That’s the great thing about India. Success in America isn’t considered selling out. They all think you have made it!” Zakaria perhaps tried to hide his shame behind a sign of exclamation. But there is no revelation in what his father’s friend said – most members of the South Asian elite are so ashamed of being born in this region that all their energy is wasted in escaping from here rather than working to bring about meaningful change.
With such hollow men and empty women in positions of leadership, no South Asian country can hope to offer even a symbolic resistance if the two ‘butchers’ of Baghdad were to decide tomorrow that ‘regime change’ in this region is a necessary condition for the betterment of this region.
In the face of dire warning from invaders, Iraqis, to their credit, are still refusing to accept Ahmad Chalabi, a front man for Jay Garner. But if Farid Zakaria were to follow the warships of victorious Marines into Bombay, he would find friends of his father’s falling over each other to garland him at the Gateway of India.
Вне всякого сомнения, чушь, выдаваемая Закарией за "факты", есть позорная ложь
