i must be a moron! why i continue to view Fareed Zakaria. same old liberal talking points that time and time again proven to be pleasant to the ears but irrelevant (e.g. listen to his piece on "peace process").

macroviews  07/05/2011 12:32 AM Report

Anyone noticed Fareed and Ariana Huffington both slamming the US with valid points, but a similar misunderstanding of our culture, easily dismissing us?

I think they both have contributions that our excellent to our culture. Especially Fareed.

A fundamental lack of understanding of our culture of "down but not out" seems to be one they don't accept.

In fact, when Fareed said our puritan roots were ones that kept influenced our open democracy, it really is what Charlie's other guest said on another show...

The enlightenment from France.

I think it relates to teenagers rebelling against parents.

Democracy is something we want the rest of the world to experience and grow with to better their lives.

Yes, the world is taking the best bits and customizing for their unique environments. It is a global shift. An exciting time. But, these adolescent claims of hegemony are inaccurate.

We want a democratic world, and these cries and claims are democratic growing pains. It's a good thing. It is better than the founding fathers could even imagine.

Huffington is from Greece, look at that place now.

Fareed is from unenviable India, where democracy has only hindered their progress.

Charlie asked a great question at the end, "In 2011, would you stay after finishing school, or go back?"

Of course he would stay.

NeilMacCallister  06/06/2011 12:45 PM Report

To Noorani,

The wars the United States wages against Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden, and Muammar Gaddafi are not a policy of "aggression". They are "defensive".

If they were "aggression", you would have to be able to point to something we went there to take, but we have received no land, resources, nor wealth as an outcome from those wars.

But as a defensive operation, I can see a reduction of successful terrorist bombings has occurred in the United States, and in other Western nations.

I am very sorry for the bombings which are still brought by terrorists in places in the Middle East, and for the loss of civilian lives among the protestors in your countries who are angry that their leaders are doing so little to stop the violences, and so little to turn their national energies toward building more and better working opportunities for their nations' populations.

I see that Singapore, Qatar, and China are all investing a high percentage of their GDP's in industrial development:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_gross_fixed_investment_as_percentage_of_GDP

I see that UAE is investing at below the world average.

I (..shamefully!) see the United States near the very bottom (..quite close to Moammar Gaddafi's dysfunctioning Libya!)

There are reasons why nations fail, ..and it is not because they protect themselves.

To Charlie Rose,

It gives an immense pleasure that the show is freindly as compare to Hard talk or Larry king live etc. My point was to raise that overall Mr Fareed Zakari answers were good enough to cover the subject but some how he made interesting to short enough while commenting on US aggression policy. The melt down of US economy is due to the aggression & price it has yet to pay would be a soaring debt. The human catastrophy in Iraq & Afghanistan would not end till the day US economy is jeopardise. Although, forces are trying to make money from Iraq Oil & from Afghanistan they want a distribution channel to edge the hagemony but tell u the truth after reading the facts & seeing the shows on ground realities that it comes to u when u bow as u reap. The fruits has gone & while commenting on Pakistan Mr. Fareed gave an impression that 10 billion was so much to Pakistan that u can do whatever US wants to without realizing that if Pakistan wanted to make money than it had so many chances in past for example, Nickson wrotes in his book that we were ready to pay if there had been a demand for 30 billion while US asked Pakistan to get a freindly ties of US with China but Pakistanis didnot take money. Remember the part played by Pakistan for Soviat war so what did Pakistan achieved when u left in middle of phase & US will leave again then we wont be having Haqani group or some other etc. When u say that Afghanistan is the poorest country then u dont know whats behind the bush. If u dont want to take Afghans for being poor then we admire Pakistan for taking it cauz we dont want Indians & Israel to play the dirty games against Pakistan. Have u ever thought why Indians are so interested in Afghanistan? I think u have to re calculate alot & the melt down or turm oil or financial crisis is shadowing at your door so be careful before its too late.

now now, Neil, no reason to go off the deep end there, This is the internet, let's keep it light, and Factual. For instance, your assertion that " George Bush got water-boarded until he cracked and signed the Democrat's demand for that $700 billion dollar TARP "payoff"." - THAT is total NONSENSE, Neil. The 'TARP' was created and PUSHED by Paulson (a republican). He even complained that the Democrats were ganging up on him for that $700 Billion bomb that he dropped on us one night to cause a panic; LOL Imagine that!

You are wrong on each and every count, rob. But, you and doodah are welcome to preach the "rob-Bama-dah" high-speed train to poverty if you so choose, ..after all, this is still America.

First, Barack Obama got installed as the hand-picked Democratic nominee by Ted Kennedy, ..then George Bush got water-boarded until he cracked and signed the Democrat's demand for that $700 billion dollar TARP "payoff".

You see, ..President Bush had spent $700 billion in his 5 year struggle in Iraq, ..and the Democrat congressional majority was now insisting for an equal amount of money for them to spend on campaigns to keep themselves in office, ..and to reward Barack Obama for his having done what they told him to do.

And, I really think George Bush, the "compassionate conservative", also signed that money demand because had a soft spot somewhere for this new fellow Barack Obama, ..who George KNEW was going to get mulched up and sausaged by those vicious gangs of back-alley Democrats.

Yes, it happened, ..the beatings took place. Barack's dream of "health care for everyone" was shattered in the back rooms of that Democrat Congress, and we found it resurfaced as a now reassembled 2,800 page "this is how we are going to split the money" contract among the Democratic Party bosses.

Barack never had a chance!

On Israel, Tom Friedman discussed Netanyahu, Obama and the Congress. He suggested that student governments in American Universities, which feed future Congresses metaphorically, would have given Netanyahu a cold reception. He suggested that Netanyahu ought to work for the 2 state solution harder than he has.

Zakaria and Friedman are both very much on our side in the coming multi-polar leadership processes.

As to the Utopian nature of any leader's mandate -- it must come down to full-employment free enterprise -- financed by governments and central banks to establish full-employment budgets -- not less than that.

The Second Bill of Rights envisions a health capitalism -- not government monopolies that tend to develop hardening of the intellectual arteries.

Bertrand Russel and Edmund Wilson saw communism and socialism as less open minded than Utopia must be.

I am sure we must end unemployment first, taxes second. Then competition for fame and fortune will be cleaned up to get the corruption out of the game.

If many people are lazy -- that does little harm -- machines make up for their deficiencies. But many people who are corrupt present a much harder problem in all forms of political economy.

DEMOCRACY AND RELIGION

All forms of democratic government that exist today exist in the cultural context of a religious majority, even when that religion is atheism or agnosticism. In the USA democratic government exists in the context of a majority population that professes Christianity by whatever denomination; this is also true in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Scotland, Britain, and most of Europe. In India the dominant religion is Hindu. In Turkey the dominant religion is Sunni Islam. The key to democratic government, as we see it in this mundane world of our existence, is that there is majority rule with minority rights.

This is true in Israel as well, where the majority is Jewish, but, where fully twenty percent of citizenship is not Jewish. One hopes that, should a non-Jewish "State of Palestine" come into existence as part and parcel of a two-state solution, that it will be open to welcoming Jewish citizens, even though they would be a Jewish minority -- and that such a Jewish minority would dwell safely and securely. Close to two-million Arabs dwell safely and securely as Israeli citizens.

The Jewish State of Israel is an excellent model of religious freedom. Just consider the profound symbolism, that on the Temple Mount, the Dome of the Rock Mosque still dominates the Jerusalem skyline and is under the administration of the Waqf (Muslim Religious Authority). It has not been taken over by Jews nor turned into a synagogue, nor has it been destroyed. If this does not show profound respect (even to a fault) for People of a separate faith -- even as those People teach hatred of Israel and historically use that very Dome of the Rock Mosque as a central place from which to engage in violence against Israel -- then there can only be blindness in the eyes of those looking from the outside into Israel. It is easy to give lip service to democracy, and quite another to actually practice democracy. Israel does so. The same cannot be said anywhere in the Muslim world, with the qualified exception of Turkey, which nation is presently moving more and more towards Muslim dictatorship. There is no democratic model in the Muslim world, Arab and non-Arab, to give credence or even plausibility to the idea that a successful, democratic "State of Palestine" will ever be created. Then again, there is a first time for everything....
