Gain a unique insight into the political figure who, more than any other individual, shaped the United States post-war foreign policy. With Nixon embroiled in Watergate, Henry Kissinger was for a time the world's most powerful man. Even after leaving office he continued to act as counselor to successive presidents as well as governments around the globe. For many though, Kissinger is implicated in war crimes allegedly committed with his knowledge in countries from Cambodia to Chile.
Historian Niall Ferguson is given exclusive access to conduct the definitive interview with the world’s most famed political advisor and the arch proponent of realpolitik.
Kissinger clearly hoped his involvement in this film would be both a historical testament and final exoneration of his part in the United States destructive actions, yet this unflinching film captures a man uneasy with his devastating legacy.
Assembled from more than 20 hours of interview footage, the profile peels away the mystique around the man who remains one of the most controversial figures in global politics.
This is The Fog of War for our times.

Is this, being produced by natgeo, going to have much truth in it ? As always.. t/y for the u/l

Even propagandists know that Kissinger's reputation is so bad that they can't fully whitewash him.

Dr. Kissinger is one of the greatest men ever to walk on our planet, because the spiritual level of a person is measured for the amount of heavy responsability he can handle. A lot of us live a very petty life, concerned with our very tiny personal world, and the maximum really DONE for the World is digital. We are nobodies, full of arrogance, and kings of mediocracy, in the hut-palaces of our dirty homes!
We don´t carry HEAVY responsibilities, because most of us were very lazy and dumb for qualifying, in the best universities, for taking high positions in the High Places. Like street dogs we just bark when a official limosine passes, without being able to understand and endure the very stressful life that a Kissinger or a Margaret Thatcher have to suffer.

"Dr. Kissinger is one of the greatest men ever to walk on our planet, because the spiritual level of a person is measured for the amount of heavy responsability he can handle."

OMG that's hilarious.

thanks
