Another American Voice of Experience Speaks Up; Former Ambassador Chas Freeman Sharing His Views
Sat 9:54 am +00:00, 20 Apr 2024Here is an Ambassador who functioned in the days when there was at least some semblance of diplomacy practiced in Washington. Chas Freeman is fluent in both Arabic and Chinese, and was Nixon’s interpreter when Nixon visited China ( in 1972?). A man who in the 1950’s believed in Israel but no longer.
He makes many interesting points; here is just one. Since Israel has developed nuclear weapons clandestinely and denies this, it assumes that Iran has done the same. This is classic projection, accusing another party of what you yourself are doing or have done. Projection is typical behaviour of sociopaths/ narcissists/psychopaths, with the Neo Cons in Washington exhibiting this behaviour daily.

We just witnessed one of the biggest changes in middle eastern (or west asian) geopolitics in decades. Iran’s highly targeted attack on Israel and the signalling towards the other Arab states, combined with its incredible diplomacy, allowed Tehran to brake free from US strangle-hold. This talk was recorded only hours before Israel’s (limited) counter attack on Iran, in the morning hours of April 19. So far, it seems Ambassador freeman correctly predicted that Israel has to change its strategic calculations. Ambassador Chas Freeman was US Ambassador to Saudi Arabia from 1990-92 and then became Assistant Secretary of Defense from 93-94. Ambassador Freeman’s homepage: https://chasfreeman.net
