Comrade Bassam kicks ass on MSNBC

"And I agree with you Craig about the need for debate. In fact, we do not have a serious and engaged debate on foreign policy matters in this country. What we have is a narrow set of predetermined policy options that are themselves based on an unrealistic view of the US role in the world; where the US is viewed as a benevolent actor. But this is not the case. Our foreign policy in the Middle East is, frankly, it stinks. We support dictatorships like Saudi Arabia and racist states like Israel, and we have invaded and launched a fraudulent war against a country in 2003, that is Iraq, on false premises. "
