...Zbigniew Brzezinski certainly knows his subject when it comes to relationships with the Russians [Aug. 25]. I would expect his practical experience to be more useful than the predominantly theoretical knowledge Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice relies on.

Yet in spite of such unanimity, prominent Americans, including former President Jimmy Carter and former National Security Advisers Zbigniew Brzezinski and Brent Scowcroft, have continued to press Israel to end its boycott of Hamas, as if the lack of peace in the region is the result of an Israeli allergy to peaceful negotiations. This is the antithesis of the prevailing situation: It is Hamas who refuses to negotiate peace with...
