<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in"><b><span style="font-size:18.0pt;font-family:"Arial Black",sans-serif">I would like to reply to the thoughtful comments by Gilbert Doctorow in the 21 May 2018 Issue 2018-#91 about our mutual teacher Richard Pipes.
I deliberately graduated from the exact same Harvard PHD Program that produced Kissinger and Brzezinski before me: The Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, Department of Government, where Harvard trains its future Professors of Political Science—not
the Kennedy School. They even gave me Kissinger’s old office at Harvard’s Center for International Affairs when I was an Associate there. Kissinger and Brzezinski had left Harvard by the time I matriculated there in the Law School in September of 1971. So
I did not study with them. But of course I had to familiarize myself with their writings and their records in order to get my three graduate degrees over my seven year stay at Harvard before becoming an Assistant Professor of Law at the University of Illinois
College of Law in Champaign. I fully agree with Gilbert that Brzezinski was just as bad as Pipes and for the exact same reasons. I also fully agree with Gilbert that Brzezinski’s direct impact on American Foreign Policy was far more deleterious and insidious
than anything Pipes did working for Reagan for those two years. My primary grievance against Pipes is Academic: There is no way Harvard should have had Pipes abusing Russian History, Russia, the Russians for his entire generation teaching there. By comparison,
I always found Ned Keenan to be fair, balanced and reasonable when it came to Russia and the Russians—RIP.<o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
