In order to defend Mahmoud the Mad and his oppressive anti-Semitic regime, no less.

In a little noticed interview with the Daily Beast (presumably little noticed because serious people don't read the Daily Beast), Zbigniew Brzezinski suggests that Barack Obama do more than just refuse to support an Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear sites -- the American president must give the order to shoot down Israeli aircraft as they cross Iraqi airspace:

DB: How aggressive can Obama be in insisting to the Israelis that a military strike might be in America’s worst interest?

Brzezinski: We are not exactly impotent little babies. They have to fly over our airspace in Iraq. Are we just going to sit there and watch?

DB: What if they fly over anyway?

Brzezinski: Well, we have to be serious about denying them that right. That means a denial where you aren’t just saying it. If they fly over, you go up and confront them. They have the choice of turning back or not. No one wishes for this but it could be a Liberty in reverse.

Yeah, that's right -- according to Carter's national security adviser not only does Israel NOT have a right to act in its own defense, but the US has an obligation to deny them that right. Even at the cost of committing an act of war against a friendly nation that has been our most reliable ally in the Middle East for decades in order to defend an outlaw regime.

And yet, there is nothing but silence from the Left.

And silence from the Obama Regime as well, which has not acted to distance itself from Zbiggy's call for war against an ally.

I wonder what Mika will have to say about Daddy on Monday?
