Kissinger: 'I don't expect an all-out attack on Taiwan ... in a 10-year period'
The hill ^ | 11/21/2021 | Olafiamihan oshin

Former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger said on Sunday that he does not expect China to launch a full-on military attack on Taiwan in the next decade.

During an appearance on CNN, Kissinger told host Fareed Zakaria that the "ultimate creation of one China" is the objective of Chinese policy, but he doesn’t expect Beijing to use military force in the near future.

More likely the CCP will take over Taiwan from within.... assumiing that they haven't effectively done so already.

After all, they are both culturally mandarin speaking Han Chinese

He has lost what little of his mind he had left.

China WILL attack, but they will only do so once they have humiliated the USA enough.

CNN is the only platform willing to give Kissinger an interview.

That alone should tell you that Henry is a dinosaur.

He caused the problem and has cultivated it and maintained it and become extremely wealthy being paid by the ChiComs to do it.

Treasonous.

Henry Kissinger is 98 years old.

WaPo headline article: This Senate is the oldest in American history.

Senator Diane Feinstein will turn 88 later this month.

House:
Nancy Pelosi is 81.

May I add,

You make me feel so young. (1946 song, hit by Frank Sinatra in 1956 and later on Reprise albums)

You make me feel so young
You make me feel there are songs to be sung
Bells to be rung
And a wonderful fling to be flung
And even when I’m old and gray
I’m gonna feel the way I do today
‘Cause you make me feel so young

Many, many Taiwanese firms have factories in China and make big money being there. If a Taiwanese politician were ever to pull a Churchill and declare: “We will defend our island, whatever the cost may be!” he would quickly get a tap on the shoulder from a Taiwanese CEO who would tell him, “Hold on, Slick - you’ve got an election coming up and you need cash - don’t you?”
