Same guy who advised Obama to shoot down Israeli planes if they attack Iran.

ZBIGNIEW BRZEZINSKI: I think privately he should say to Prime Minister Netanyahu, who no longer has an obedient, compliant right-wing government, but a government composed of people who can also assert themselves, that the Prime Minister has to understand that our commitment to Israel is unshakeable and comprehensive and based on the moral principles–that’s why we’re committed to Israel–but at the same time, the United States has the right to expect reciprocity.  That is to say we are funding Israel. We’re helping it economically, we’re helping it militarily and Israel has to understand that the United States has some overriding interests in the Middle East which are not exclusive to Israel. And, therefore, the United States’s interests have to be taken into account and the most important one, in my view at the present moment, is that we do not get into another Middle Eastern war which will quickly become a regional war. I have in mind of course no repetition of Iraq, next year or sooner, in Iran. The war in Iraq cost us three million dollars–three trillion dollars–and 35,000 casualties. We can’t afford that again and I think this the Israelis have to understand.
