People off the bus, but they wasnt over six feet from the bus. Began to put them in the highway patrolmans car, and i stepped off again, because i was told holding the ladys arms that they were arresting and she said get back on the bus, and then i heard somebody scream from the parlor she was in and said get that one there. And then a white man stepped out of a car and told me i was under arrest. When he opened the door and i went to get in the car, he kicked me, and they carried me on down to the county jail where they had the other highway patrolman had carried the other five. And they, you know, when we walked in, when i walked in with two white men that carried me down, and they cursed me all the way down. They would ask me questions, and when i would try to answer, they would tell me to hush. I was put in a cell with simpson, and after i was put in the cell, i could just hear some horrible screams and horrible sounds, you know, of licks, and i would hear somebody when they say ca

Ive in looking at how the United States thought about this and the strategy they developed, ive come to the conclusion that there was a kind of map that the americans had that was above all of their all of their policy discussions. A kind of paradigm. I actually started thinking this way. I worked, if i could give you a personal anecdote, i worked in the white house in the george w. Bush administration. And i had a had come from academia, which i thought prepared me for policy work. And then i went to the white house and realized, actually, it prepared me for nothing. But one of the things that really surprised me was somebody who considered himself an expert. In the middle east. At the highest levels have simple ideas in their head. And i dont mean that as insult. Im not saying simplistic, they just have simple ideas. And they have
U. N. Responded to the genocide. Now American History tv in prime time features a panel on totalitarianism and communist governments focusing on world war ii, the cold war and americas involvement in the middle east. This 90minute event was hosted by the James Madison program at princeton university. The association for the study of free institutions and texas tech university. On behalf of the directors, i want to express our gratitude to the James Madison program for inviting us to cosponsor this panel on Foreign Policy and the challenges of totalitarianism. This is a privilege for me personally also when i arrived at princeton in the fall of 1986, the age of 17, one of the faculty that i met early on was a young scholar then in his first year as an assistant professor. That was robby. Ive been very pleased to work with him on a number of occasions over the last nearly 30 years. I can hardly believe it.
