KGB Letter Outlines Sen. Kennedy's Overtures to Soviets, Prof Says
By Kevin Mooney

CNSNews.com Staff Writer

(CNSNews.com) - The
antipathy that congressional Democrats have today toward President George W. Bush is reminiscent of their distrust of President
Ronald Reagan during the Cold War, a political science professor says.
"We see some of the same sentiments today, in
that some Democrats see the Republican president as being a threat and the true obstacle to peace, instead of seeing our enemies
as the true danger," said 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.
At one point after President Reagan left office,
Tunney acknowledged that he had played the role of intermediary, not only for Kennedy but for other U.S. senators, Kengor
said. Moreover, Tunney told the London Times that he had made 15 separate trips to Moscow.
"There's a lot more to
be found here," Kengor told Cybercast News Service. "This was a shocking revelation."
It is not evident with
whom Tunney actually met in Moscow. But the letter does say that Sen. Kennedy directed Tunney to reach out to "confidential
contacts" so Andropov could be alerted to the senator's proposals.
Specifically, Kennedy proposed that Andropov make
a direct appeal to the American people in a series of television interviews that would be organized in August and September
of 1983, according to the letter.
"Tunney told his contacts that Kennedy was very troubled about the decline in U.S
-Soviet relations under Reagan," Kengor said. "But Kennedy attributed this decline to Reagan, not to the Soviets. In one of
the most striking parts of this letter, Kennedy is said to be very impressed with Andropov and other Soviet leaders."
In
Kennedy's view, the main reason for the antagonism between the United States and the Soviet Union in the 1980s was Reagan's
unwillingness to yield on plans to deploy middle-range nuclear missiles in Western Europe, the KGB chief wrote in his letter.
"Kennedy was afraid that Reagan was leading the world into a nuclear war," Kengor said. "He hoped to counter Reagan's
polices, and by extension hurt his re-election prospects."
As a prelude to the public relations strategy Kennedy hoped
to facilitate on behalf of the Soviets, Kengor said, the Massachusetts senator had also proposed meeting with Andropov in
Moscow -- to discuss the challenges associated with disarmament.
In his appeal, Kennedy indicated he would like to
have Sen. Mark Hatfield (R-Ore.) accompany him on such a trip. The two senators had worked together on nuclear freeze proposals.
But Kennedy's attempt to partner with high-level Soviet officials never materialized. Andropov died after a brief
time in office and was succeeded by Mikhail Gorbachev.
In his attempt to reach out the Soviets, Kennedy settled on
a flawed receptacle for peace, Kengor said. Andropov was a much more belligerent and confrontational leader than the man who
followed him, in Kengor's estimation.
"If Andropov had lived and Gorbachev never came to power, I can't imagine the
Cold War ending peacefully like it did," Kengor told Cybercast News Service. "Things could have gotten ugly."
In
the long run of history, Kengor believes it is evident that Reagan's policies were vindicated while Kennedy was proven wrong.
In fact, as he points out in his book, Kennedy himself made a "gracious concession" after Reagan died, crediting the 40th
president with winning the Cold War.

USS ARIZONA Marine Remembrance At Pearl Harbor
UPDATE: We saved the Marine
Corps Rememberance Memorial in Pearl Harbor From The National Park Service.
UPDATE: A couple
of years ago, I was the Operations Officer for the Pearl Harbor Visitor Center, on the waterfront between the USS ARIZONA
and the USS BOWFIN. The Commandant of the Marine Corps was the featured speaker at the dedication of the USS ARIZONA Marine
Remembrance, 10 November 2006. The National Park Service, which administers the USS ARIZONA Memorial is renovating all of
Halawa Landing, the site of the Marine Remembrance. The Regional Director of the Natl Park Service Western Region, Jon Jarvis,
stated on the local TV news that the Marine Remembrance would be removed. I challenged him on that statement and convinced
him that would not happen without a fight. I passed the word to (disabled vet and webmaster) Jack Cunningham (Americans
Working Together), who in turn asked his readership to email Jarvis that the entire USMC would make every effort to have him
relieved of his duties if he moved that monument. I was copied on many of the emails to him from Marines, their friends and
their families that it nearly fried my computer. And...it worked. In order to save his job, Jarvis backed down. The
Remembrance now belongs to the USMC and has its' rightful place in direct view of the USS ARIZONA.

SECOND
REQUEST:
Dear Senator Oroho,
I'm writing this request (again) on behalf of Jack Cunningham, a former
active duty Marine and Vietnam veteran. Although I've never actually met him in person, simply the fact that he is a
fellow Marine in need of justice, I offer to help him in any way I can. As you may know, Marines are like that.
Marines take care of Marines.
Although I probably don't know all of the facts pertaining to his case against the State
of New Jersey, I know enough to firmly believe that he should be heard in a public forum. His charges are serious.
There are claims of abuse of power and cover-up at the highest level of the State government. When such accusations
are made, I believe the leadership has no other option than to investigate. Until that is done, all that know of him
and his charges will assume that there is indeed a cover-up. Perception is a powerful thing. Hopefully it won't
be counter to the truth, whatever that may be.
If this is allowed to continue to fester, the results will be devastating
on all involved.
If this issue is not addressed soon, my only other option is to forward this to every Marine
website and public forum I can find. That option is not a good one for any of us.
Please do the right thing and
give Jack his "day in court."
Very Respectfully, John R. Bates

"There is... a deep anti-military bias in the media.
One that begins from the premise that the military must be lying, and that American projection of power around the world must
be wrong. I think that that is a hangover from Vietnam, and I think it's very dangerous."
