  3. aah Kissinger. He's the best policy adviser ever, you just have to keep in mind to do ALWAYS the opposite of what he suggests.

  4. Kissinger's comment on Taiwan is not quite what your link suggests. The interview is classic hard-hitting Wall Street Journal and is quite interesting:

    Maybe Kissinger should be a war criminal, but what he's saying here is actually, "OK, there are lines in the sand between the US and China on Taiwan, but I am the world's greatest diplomat (ever) and I would never speak of such things in public."
