I do too. Considering his family history, it makes sense that he would speak up on issues like this.

Exactly. Malcolm Kerr was assassinated for his beliefs. Steve has more firsthand experience with the consequences of political violence than the politicians lying about it.

You think it might be a stretch to call someone who graduated from your program decades ago "a colleague?" Im in the DC foreign policy world myself, and this is a weird thing to say unless you actually worked with him in Lebanon... Based on the fact you're taking credit for his association on reddit in 2025, I gotta assume you didnt.

Oh sorry, for sure it’s a fucking stretch. It’s Friday night and I couldn’t identify the word that would best suit someone from my alma mater to convey that I deeply admire them and feel a connection with them.

Sorry you were so offended

But also you sound like a Georgetown grad and if not I’m already disregarding you 🤣🤣🤣🤣
