"A divided and warring Nigeria ultimately serves the interests of the United States as cited by Zbigniew Brzezinski, top adviser to Barack Obama and leading US foreign policy theoretician.

"Brzezinski, who co-founded the Trilateral Commission and openly credits himself with the creation of the Afghan Mujahideen, has influenced policy that encourages the division of existing nation-states by the succession and emergence of microstates, based on all cultural, ethnic and religious peculiarities.

Brzezinski recommends the so-called ‘micro-nationalities’ concept, which means that national boundaries established in the 19th century should be swept aside in favor of a crazy quilt of petty tribal entities, each one so small that it could not hope to resist even a medium-sized oil multinational” .

ekt_bear: link?

ekt_bear: Brzezinski is a very old man...he worked for President Carter in the 70s. Why do you think he is working for Obama now? Or has his ear?

Moreover, what is the date, time and place for this supposed quote?

ektbear: Nigeria as is already can easily be bullied. It isn't like it is some strong country.

So whether it divides or not won't change anything in that regard.
