Henry Kissinger, the toweringly influential former secretary of state who earned a reputation as a sagacious diplomat but drew international condemnation and accusations of war crimes for his key role in widening the American presence in Vietnam and the U.S. bombing of Cambodia, died Wednesday.
He was 100.
Kissinger, a Jewish refugee from Nazi Germany, reached the pinnacle of the American political establishment and in turn became an unlikely household name. He was secretary of state and national security adviser under two Republican presidents, Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, and advised powerful leaders in both American political parties for decades.

His death proves that even globalists like him aren’t forever. Eventually, even Soros and Schwab will have to live this plane of existence.

Henry Kissinger had a younger brother Walter (on the right) by only 13 months, who did not have a heavy Germany accent, while Henry notably did not. Asked why he lost his accent, Walter said: “Because I am the Kissinger who listens.”

May he rest in peace. He stayed sharp as a tack until the end. Wrong in my lowly opinion, but sharp nonetheless.

Your covenant with death will be annulled;
your agreement with the realm of the dead will not stand.

I never was a fan of Kissinger. But he served honorably in WW2 with the 84th Infantry Division. And he was a veteran of the Battle of the Bulge.
So I’ll give him credit for that, lots of credit.
