WOW! This is something you will not hear from the main stream media. If Professor Kengor can prove this...it is nothing less than treason!
I wonder if we will get a book review from the New York Times or
Washington Post on this one. It is akin to Nancy Pelosi sending an
envoy to Osama bin Laden offering information to counter President
Bush's foreign policy. This certainly does warrant further
investigation...will anyone have the fortitude?
Paul Kengor, a political science professor at Grove City College and the author of new book, The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism.
In his book, which came out this week, Kengor focuses on a KGB letter
written at the height of the Cold War that shows that Sen. Edward
Kennedy (D-Mass.) offered to assist Soviet leaders in formulating a
public relations strategy to counter President Reagan's foreign policy
and to complicate his re-election efforts.
The letter, dated May
14, 1983, was sent from the head of the KGB to Yuri Andropov, who was
then General Secretary of the Soviet Union's Communist Party.
In
his letter, KGB head Viktor Chebrikov offered Andropov his
interpretation of Kennedy's offer. Former U.S. Sen. John Tunney
(D-Calif.) had traveled to Moscow on behalf of Kennedy to seek out a
partnership with Andropov and other Soviet officials, Kengor claims in
his book.
