Thanks Bob!

There are two short threads in progress in the aus.politics
newsgroup about the reliability of John Pilger as an
academic source. See the threads "USA Immediate Post-WW2
Agenda" and "John Pilger An Accurate Source"

I'll get to your essay shortly...

God Bless!

Craig

Subject: Re: [CHOMSKY] Sources for Pilger/Hitler Quotes


The Kennan quote can be found in the State Department's collection of U.S.
documents, FOREIGN RELATIONS OF THE UNITED STATES. I quote it in an article
I wrote that's on the web which you can access at
http://vi.uh.edu/pages/buzzmat/bernathlecture.htm

Don't know the source of Hitler quote.
