Yeah talking about human rights is a hot potato - and Kissingler deftly deflected it.

robdverity: In your dreams!
*****
If you took the time to listen to that program on NPR (Btw, it was very good program.) then you realized how hard it was for the Brazilian government to get people to trust the Brazilian currency.
If people don't trust the currency then the country is in deep trouble.
Ben Bernanke has been playing with fire. When people from around the world lose faith and trust on the US dollar we will have the biggest international monetary crisis the world has ever seen.
I have a feeling that we have passed the point of no return, and it is just a matter of time for the final collapse of the US dollar to materialize into a final meltdown.

Two friends of mine mentioned to me that they had seen the enclosed video, and that Jim Rogers and I were quoted on this video. About 111,500 people have seen this video so far, and I am quoted around the minute 40 into the video presentation. This is the first time that I heard of Porter Stansberry.

"The Invention of Money" is a relevant presentation that shows how quickly a total collapse of the US dollar can materialize. It can happen at the speed of light.
I like to suggest that people should listen to this NPR radio program that explain the process that Brazil had to go through for people to start believing on Brazil’s currency. This program also explains the process that the Federal Reserve uses to create money from thin air.
The Invention of Money – January 7, 2011
http://www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/423/the-invention-of-money
Ben Bernanke could learn a lot from the Brazilian experience regarding what it takes to make people believe in the value of the country’s currency – trust it’s all the central bank has to justify the trust that people has in a certain country’s currency. If people stop trusting the central bank then that currency it’s in deep trouble.
How the Federal Reserve creates money from thin air: the Federal Reserve just click their mouse into a Bank’s account with the Federal Reserve and by changing the balance of that account money is created from nothing. (A complete explanation of the Federal Reserve magic act it is given at minute 35 of the above radio conversation on NPR)
The Federal Reserve magic of creating money from thin air just go as far as people continue trusting the Federal Reserve – and that trust can be lost at any time, and after that.

Anyway, this is the first time that I heard of Porter Stansberry.

We need to look at our “Own House and Human Rights Issues” before we critique others, we have a lot of room for improvement.
Whatever people think about Mr. Kissinger we must appreciate his insight and wisdom in many areas.
thorm197 01/20/2011 10:43 PM Report
Although I found Mr. Kissinger's analysis sobering and realistic I was particularly dismayed when he referred to his own dismissal of human rights as 'open-minded.' Not only do I strongly disagree but I find it to be a particularly dangerous comment. When persons of significant influence remark that a blind-eye towards human rights violation is open-minded I think there is something seriously afoul.

"there's no chinese history that requires them to dominate"
--Henry Kissinger
I disagree. History is full of a Chinese desire to dominate. Tibet was swallowed and its leaders are in exile. India was robed of a piece of their territory. Bhuttan is being robbed of its historical territories in a naked display of bully taking advantage of weak neighbor. Vietnam had to fight a war with China and China wants a piece of its territorial waters as well as the Phillippines. They were trying to get a Japanese island recently. They have attacked South Korea via their proxy North Korea.
The domineering impulse is alive and well in Chinese high circles.
REMant 01/20/2011 01:31 PM Report
I certainly agree with the tenor of Dr Kissinger's remarks, but the Post placed prominently on its front page yesterday the response to a poll indicating that 61 per cent of Americans see China as a threat. The question: "Is China more of an opportunity for new markets and investment, or a threat to American jobs and economic security?"
While I, too, think that an overt conflict with China is unlikely, we have acted for a long time, particularly over trade routes - a task we inherited from the British - as the world's policemen, and we are going to have to adjust or risk a situation like that with the Soviet Union in the latter part of the last century. And we are presently engaged in a currency devaluation "cold war" not unlike Reagan's military spending war with the Soviets. The Federal Reserve prints money to buy back bonds, and China intervenes to keep the yuan from rising. There's your quid pro quo. We have to understand that China is in much the same position today as the US was in the 1930's. These things are more important than rhetoric.
Ditto the business with India and Vietnam. I think China is fairly well "contained" by its traditional cultural boundaries, and would not get more excited over a few border issues than we do in similar situations elsewhere. Too, I think the stealth fighter business was just showing off, and to be taken as a compliment.
But we have to be extremely careful, esp with Asians, to avoid the appearance of loss of face, which I'd say, some of us are singularly insensitive about. No matter what the president thinks, the rights of man do not "transcend" culture. The Bible commands we love God, but men only as ourselves. They are an aspiration, not a given, and they have to be earned. No Founder would have thought as he does. The opening days of the Constitutional Convention were given over to the question of whether virtue even existed sufficient for our ppl to govern themselves, and the subject came up time and again as the weeks passed. And I have no doubt that the author of the Declaration of Independence, had he been there, would have agreed, and probably Tom Paine, too, for that matter. But I think there are more conversations going on among leaders than we imagine, and I'm sure President Hu was quite prepared to be confronted about human rights and President Obama about what that answer would have to be. What leaders say publicly is not necessarily what they say privately (as we have recently been made keenly aware). The ever alert Post today, tho, ran the headline: "Obama presses China leader on rights."
