Kissinger on Lee Kuan Yew

COTTonLINE believes Henry Kissinger has been the most far-sighted post-World War II thinker on international order. See what he writes for The Washington Post about the life of the founder of Singapore as a nation: Lee Kuan Yew.

What strikes me in Kissinger's remembrance is Lee's insistence on the key role of the U.S. in maintaining world peace. I wish I had confidence our President understood that role, I fear he finds it repugnant, even neocolonial.
