Possibly inspired by the mountains that towered behind him, National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski was in an elevated mood when he inspected Pakistan's border with Afghanistan last week. "You should know that the entire world is outraged," he told a group of refugees at Sadda, urging them in effect to reclaim their land "because God is on your side." After lunching in the mess of the famed Khyber Rifles, Brzezinski was garlanded by area tribal chiefs and had his picture taken at the Khyber Pass, quipping that it would be "a historic picture-three weeks before the march...
...most important of the missions was the one led by National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski and Deputy Secretary of State Warren Christopher to Pakistan and Saudi Arabia. This team will be quickly followed to Riyadh by another, led by the State Department's Political and Military Affairs Director Reginald Bartholomew and Matthew Nimetz, the Under Secretary of State for Security Assistance. Its aim: to negotiate the use of military facilities in Somalia, Kenya or, most likely, Oman, which could become an important U.S. military outpost in the 1980s.

Carter" who, Pravda said, has stirred up "a militaristic chauvinistic psychosis in the U.S.," with the assistance of his principal henchman, Zbigniew Brzezinski.

These two villains were depicted as having long planned a return to the cold war and a policy of "brinksmanship." The Soviet press ticked off steps in the alleged Carter-Brzezinski plot: rejection of SALT...
...Carter worked on the speech that would provide his answers, he immersed himself in history, reading up especially on how previous Presidents and other world leaders had responded to similar crises. National Security Adviser Zbigniew Brzezinski was in and out of Carter's private office as many as a dozen times daily, while Secretary Vance, according to an aide, just about "moved over to the White House." Other top aides served as sounding boards for the President's ideas, as did veteran foreign policy experts from outside the Administration, like Clark Clifford, the former Secretary of Defense, who has counseled...
...price of being a public figure is to be pursued by a persistent journalist demanding private interviews for a full personality study. Dare the public figure refuse? Zbigniew Brzezinski, the President's National Security Adviser, tried and got the treatment. Sally Quinn's three-part series in the Washington Post damaged Brzezinski in passing, but it damaged the Post even more. The Post is one of the nation's best papers, though nowadays it often seems excessively bent on topping its Watergate success...
