Wouldn’t Nixon/Kissinger wait for more than the ‘first’ missile to fly before getting involved? The 2 of them thought of the world as a chessboard. What’s a few million Chicoms?

It’s not unlikely that the same thing could happen between our ‘friends’ India and Pakistan. Will the Haigism apply? “We’re friends of both.”

So! Richard Nixon prevented a global thermonuclear war by his astute action.

I doubt much or any if this is true.
If so it shows even more how stupid Nixon/Kissinger were.

Nixon was a much greater President than history shows. Watergate was all B.S. as much as this current B.S. with Trump.

Nixon, outside of Reagan, was head and shoulders above his peers. Although I still consider him to have been a fairly liberal President.

The US would help Taiwan defend Quemoy and Matsu as i recall, the defense of quemoy and matsu was a major issue in the 1960 presidential campaign
To: dfwgator
Nixon was a superb American - and the Left took him down.
Like theyre trying to do now with our President.

Nixon started all of this China s—t. It was a cold war tactic that is coming back to bite us on the economic butt.
