You miss the point completely. Juenger is not about "Realpolitik" -- even
though there was an exchange of letters between Henry Kissinger and Juenger
in the 1950s (Kissinger's letters can be read at the Deutsches
Literaturarchiv in Marbach). And to use the term "business" in connection
with Juenger is, let's say, problematic as well.

Btw, amazing to read your extremely limited notion of "dreams". I'd say that
Juenger spent a considerable part of his life "daydreaming" (as you call
it). Many people who knew or met him personally report that he was strangely
absent-minded and "drifting off" during conversations. Juenger was first and
foremost an artist, after all.

As to your personal insults -- die richten sich selbst.

PS. You always write "we" -- who's that? The two of you?
