[David Rothkopf] What BRIC would be without China... | David Rothkopf: And so whilethe Russians have been the most eager of organizers of the BRICs because theywant to create a counterbalance to U.S. power (not a terrible thing, I thinkfor the world or for the United States given what we've seen of our tendencies when wedo when being the sole superpower goes to our head), we should see theemergence of the BRIC bloc for what it is at its heart, a major amplifier ofthe influence of the country at its heart, China. 

[The Washington Note] State Department Policy Planning Chief to Speak at US-Saudi Forum ...: "A Concert of Democracies could bring India, South Africa, Brazil, Indonesia, Mexico, Chile, Argentina, Turkey and many others to the table well before they are likely to succeed in getting there in current institutions. A Concert of Democracies reaching from Brasilia to Ankara to Seoul could lobby within the UN for such a conference [on economics] and ensure that once convened it achieved its purpose.

[David Rothkopf] It's absurd to argue that we can't appoint U.S. officials who are ...: David Rothkopf is the author of Superclass: The Global Power Elite and the World They are Making and Running the World: The Inside Story of the National Security Council and the Architects of American Power. He is a visiting scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and President and CEO of Garten Rothkopf, a Washington, DC-based international advisory firm.

[The Caucus] Blogtalk: The Panetta Surprise - The Caucus Blog - NYTimes.com: Washington insiders, he said, were blindsided by the pick. “Panetta's name was seldom raised as a likely candidate for the job,” he added.

[Comments for Feral Scholar] Feral Scholar » Blog Archive » Obama's economic plan will fail ...: Obama’s problems are compounded by the fact that he is surrounded by people, such as Pentagon supremo Robert Gates, that remain locked in “war on terror”/Long War mode. Vice President Joe Biden and special envoy to the Afghanistan-Pakistan theater Richard Holbrooke - not to mention General David “I’m positioning myself for 2012″

[David Rothkopf] Why the Freeman debacle does NOT support Stephen Walt's theories ...: No one has accused you of hating him (I don't think, perhaps I missed a comment), but let's be clear: just in this post, you accused him of accusing Americans of putting Israel before the U.S., something I think he would deny, and of cynically plotting the entire 'Lobby' conflagration -- article, book, and all -- simply for his own personal enrichment. This despite the manifestly obvious fact that he now receives a daily onslaught (perhaps deserved...) of personal vilification as a result of the position he took, an onslaught that I frankly would not take on myself, no matter the financial reward that came with it.

[Stephen M. Walt] Prescription for Iran: Patient Containment | Stephen M. Walt: They could have said”¦ ideally in chorus with our allies”¦ that the international community was disturbed by apparent irregularities, that any recount or investigation should be made by objective observers, that the suppression of peaceful protests would be viewed with great concern, that Iran would jeopardize its talks with the international community if it undertook violence or condoned voter fraud, that nuclear weapons agreements depend on trust and that countries that seek such trust must act accordingly, that while we seek to maintain engagement, there are limits to what we will tolerate and that we reserve all our options to advance our interests. They could have convened a meeting among like-minded countries to discuss options, sent an envoy, formally postponed further discussions of the nuclear issue until this situation was clarified.

[Blog for America] DemocracyForAmerica.com » Blog » The Shining City Upon A Hill: But, if I came here and posted only pie recipes from now on, people would probably begin to scroll my posts and miss anything else that might be in them. I'm glad you like Obama, but your posts about him are beginning to look like desperate sales pitches from a car salesman trying to unload too much inventory before the end of the year, and I tend to mute commercials after I've seen them a few times.

[Stephen M. Walt] Robert Kagan and the "two-state solution" | Stephen M. Walt: Walt, not now, not ever, because whatever the pale intellectual merits of his hackneyed argument may be, he and Mearsheimer know full well that their prominence on this issue has come not because they have had a single new insight but rather because they were willing and one can only believe inclined to play to a crowd whose "views" were fueled by prejudice and worse. They may not be anti-Semites themselves but they made a cynical decision to cash in on anti-Semitism by offering to dress up old hatreds in the dowdy Brooks Brothers suits of the Kennedy School and the University of Chicago.
