RIP, Brent Scowcroft, and condolences to family & friends.
He risked the ire of the Bushes by warning about the folly of invading Iraq. I ran his oped in the WSJ in 2002. I wish I had listened to him.
He was a true Wise Man. https://t.co/gPKocvR9lR

Brent Scowcroft was a rare Washington figure who had both a first-class temperament and a first-class mind. His deft touch in managing the Cold War’s end was both understated and brilliant. America needs leaders like Admiral Scowcroft🇺🇸 https://t.co/Y7amvNhwqS

Brent Scowcroft was an essential architect of much of the best of our foreign policy. With Bush 41, he managed the end of the Cold War with grace and wisdom. May he rest in peace and rise in glory. https://t.co/8Fe1gAon9w
