A (Saner) Voice from the Past
Austrian Chancellor Bruno Kreisky (1911-90) Speaks About the Tragedy in the Middle East
Note that Kreisky speaks in German, but the speech is subtitled in English. The speech was given in 1988 on the occasion of a meeting of the Austrian Socialist Party.
That used to be how politicians spoke about world affairs.
Bruno Kreisky (Wikipedia bio)…
…was an Austrian social democratic politician who served as Foreign Minister from 1959 to 1966 and as Chancellor from 1970 to 1983. Aged 72 at the end of his chancellorship, he was the oldest Chancellor after World War II. His 13-year tenure was the longest of any Chancellor in republican Austria.
With his 13-year chancellorship, known as the Kreisky era, he is one of the most important political figures in the country as well as in Western European social democracy. Partly at the same time as him, the Social Democrats Willy Brandt of West Germany and Olof Palme of Sweden were heads of government, with whom he worked closely in the Socialist International.

This Freeman person isn't just a nobody or an anybody, he's a real somebody:
"...retired U.S. defense official, diplomat, and interpreter..."
Retired diplomat, doesn't get much closer to the real mucketty-muck than that, I think.
