Kissinger gets Peace Prize for making war; slammed or pitching peace.

During his century on Planet Earth, Henry Kissinger experienced a bizarre twist on the subject of war and peace. An architect of the Nixon Vietnam War strategy that got possibly a million or more Vietnamese and a third of America’s 58,000 needlessly killed, he won the Nobel Peace Prize.

Possibly out of guilt over his role in that carnage, or simply having become wiser with age, Kissinger is now promoting a negotiated settlement over continued US gasoline being poured on the fire which is the Russo Ukraine war.

He recognizes that Ukraine’s victory goals of retaking Crimea and the Donbas, then joining NATO are utterly preposterous and will never happen. Instead, they have enabled 300 days of relentless destruction of Ukraine as a functioning nation. Much worse, every day the war continues presents a new opportunity for it to go nuclear thru a simple miscalculation, a deranged combatant, or even another planned false flag, like Ukraine’s call for NATO intervention from an errant Ukraine missile killing 2 in NATO member Poland. Kissinger knows that direct US military involvement with Russia is becoming inevitable.

But poor Henry has received a firestorm of criticism for promoting negotiations, the path to peace in virtually every war other than the ‘unconditional surrender’ variety. From Kyiv to the DC Capitol, proponents of endless war are calling him an out of touch appeaser.

In Kissinger’s case, his good deeds get punished after his bad deeds got rewarded.
