Henry Kissinger was Secretary of State under Nixon and practicioner of "Realpolitik." This is a German word meaning "realistic politics", which describes the practice of aggressive foreign policy using political, military, and economic bullying for superiority. It is the opposite of the unrealistic or idealistic style of foreign policy that is noble, nice, and feel-good. This is what he thinks about the military:
"Military men are dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign policy." ~ Henry Kissinger ~ January-February 2003 edition of Eagle Newsletter
Why is this man advising the current administration on the war in Iraq? Anyone who respects the soldiers of this country would never employ someone with so much disregard for them. This is despicable.
