MOST WARS Started in History? - Henry Kissinger

Died at a hundred years old? War criminal? Bane of the third world?

Born in Fürth, Germany, and fleeing the iron fist of the Third Reich, to the hallowed halls of Washington’s power, Henry Kissinger is a name that echoes with controversy.

______

In the oppressive shadow of Nazi Germany's ascent, young Henry Kissinger slipped away, narrowly evading the clutches of one regime only to align with its adversary -
the refugee becomes the soldier for the very power opposing his homeland.

His military career started with his conscription into the U.S. Army, leveraging his native tongue within the Counter Intelligence Corps as both weapon and olive branch.

As a CIC operative, his fluency in German wasn't just a linguistic skill—it was potent tool in Kissinger's role as an intelligence gatherer.

Interrogating prisoners, he employed his skillset, extracting vital information from those who shared his motherland's tongue, as well as identifying spies.

Witnessing post-war Germany's reconstruction however, Kissinger found himself amidst the rubble of his own past, contributing to the rebirth of a society he had been forced to flee.

Rising to the rank of sergeant taught him the nuanced art of leadership amidst chaos, a skill that would later underpin his political sagacity.

Awarded the Bronze Star, this accolade spoke volumes of his bravery, a herald of his potential for future governance.

Post-discharge, the G.I. Bill paved his way from military ranks to academic halls, where military strategy translated into diplomatic finesse.
