Henry Alfred Kissinger (born May 27, 1923) is a German-born American political scientist, diplomat, and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. He served as National Security Advisor and later concurrently as Secretary of State in the Nixon Administration.
A proponent of Realpolitik, Kissinger played a dominant role in United States foreign policy between 1969 and 1977. During this period, he pioneered the policy of détente. He negotiated a settlement ending the Vietnam War, but the cease-fire proved unstable and no lasting peace resulted beyond the pullout of the US troops.
Kissinger is still praised by colleagues today. He was honored as the first recipient of the Ewald von Kleist Award of the Munich Conference on Security Policy and currently serves as the chairman of Kissinger Associates, an international consulting firm. Kissinger was the “most frequent visitor” to the George W. Bush White House as an unofficial political adviser on Israel and the Middle East—including the invasion and occupation of Iraq.
Kissinger is criticized and even accused of war crimes, most prominently by Christopher Hitchens, for the policies he promoted during the Vietnam war and for his role in the establishment of dictatorial regimes in Latin America.

This is right out of the book of saul alinsky rules for radicals, which Barak Hussien Obama used as his manual while learning the techniques of “community organization” in the inner cities of Chicago. Hillary Clinton also did her thesis on this book while in college. The cloward piven strategy goes one step futher in detailing how to overburden the system with entitlement programs to bring it to a point of collapse to bring in a new system of Government control. What is happening in our country is more akin to a global take over of countries by a world government and banking system… which I believe to be the end time government spoken of in the Book of Revelation.
