The Harshest Criticism of Henry Kissinger (RIP) Ever!
I am proud of the fact that criticied Henry Kissinger while he was still alive. My piece appeared in the September 2023 edition of Quadrant magazine. There are two points that the Late Henry Kissinger and I would probably agree upon. The first is that criticism of any type is okay. We should all be free to say what we need to say. The second is that my critique of Henry Kissinger is absolute. I intimate that he and Nixon have set us up for the Second Cold War, WW3, the acendancy of the Middle Kingdom, the end of Western Civilisation, you name it. That said, if you go the comments at the end of the article, you will see people who think I have praised Kissinger's legacy! You judge for yourself.
