US Realpolitik 2.0: the recruitment of evil Kissingerism against Russia and China under Donald Trump


The man that could easily be considered the personification of the ruthless US deep state is back. Henry Kissinger comes at the right time in White House to provide 'expertise' on how to provoke a major conflict, especially now that the Sino-Russian bloc threatens the US world domination.


As Mintpressnews reports:

           While most reporting gave some context to Trump’s most recent meeting with top defense officials on tensions with Pyongyang, hardly any mentioned that the meeting had been immediately preceded by another. This meeting, also on the topic of North Korea, was held between the president and former Secretary of State and unindicted war criminal Henry Kissinger. [...] Given Trump’s bellicose rhetoric and threats towards North Korea – as well as his rejection of diplomacy in resolving the crisis despite both Pyongyang’s and his own State Department’s apparent willingness to attempt it – Kissinger’s timely guidance to the President during “the calm before the storm” should give the American public considerable cause for concern.

Adam Curtis in his film The Trap: What Happened to our Dream of Freedom, gives a short background about Kissinger's Realpolitik:

           Ever since the Second World War, American governments had struggled to contain the spread of Communism, and the wave of Third World revolutions was the dangerous new face in this battle. To try and stop it, during the 60's and 70's, American governments adopted a ruthless strategy backing dictators and tyrants around the world who offered to contain these revolutionary forces. They did this, by repressing or killing thousands of their own people. The Main architect of this policy was Henry Kissinger, secretary of State under president Nixon. He used America's power to back dictators like general Pinochet in Chile, and Ferdinand Marcos in the Philippines. Kissinger knew that these dictators used torture and mass killing to stay in power, but in his theory, what he called Realpolitik, this was the price that had to be paid if Soviet tyranny was to be kept in check.

Where there's smoke there's fire, so when Kissinger comes, prepare for war.

Why 'dirty Henry' needed to come back at this moment? Most probable answer, to give useful advice and guide 'appropriately' Donald Trump.

So, the next question that comes in mind: would he be coming back under Hillary Clinton too? The seemingly surprisingly answer is 'No'! True, because Hillary doesn't need any guidance. She comes straight from the Kissingerian Realpolitik school, and therefore, she knows very well what to do to provoke Russia and China. She would have been devoted to that mission from her first day in the Oval Office.

There is evidence that Trump was receiving advice from the warmongering Kissinger quite long before his election. And that can be seen in the strategic approach against the Sino-Russian rival bloc. Both Donald Trump and Henry Kissinger appeared to be seeking a diplomatic approach with Russia, contrary to China. Behind this, there is a clear strategy to break the Sino-Russian alliance by concentrating pressure on the component that threatens the economic domination of the US, but has not yet the military strength to confront the US war machine.

And here comes North Korea. China is already encircled by the US naval forces in Asia Pacific. The next step would be the presence of US troops on the ground, right next to the Chinese borders in the Northeast. So, North Korea as the final barrier must be removed.

Let's guess what could be Kissinger's key advice to Donald Trump. Probably, to increase pressure on North Korea to abandon its nuclear program. Iran did it and now the clouds of war are gathering above it as the Donald wants to cancel the nuclear deal, find a pretext to invade. The US empire first imposes tough sanctions together with its faithful allies, then disarms the target, then invades.

Yet, the best part of the story may surprise you even further. Because the US warmongering establishment may be feeling more comfortable with Trump in power. Hillary Clinton would not be that easy to be 'manoeuvred' on this matter due to her excessive zeal to confront Russia. But Donald, despite his frequent shows where he presents himself as an unpredictable 'prima donna', is taken by the hand by the 'Darth Vader' of US foreign policy in order to make the right steps towards the destruction of the Sino-Russian alliance.
