There's an error.

Nixon and Kissinger sent George Herbert Walker Bush to deliver a message to the UN, not George W. Bush. According to Wikipedia, George Herbert Walker Bush was the US ambassador to the UN from March 1, 1971 to January 18, 1973.

That was very interesting. Have never heard about that history before. Thanks for the book recommendation.

The various partition schemes have not worked out particular well, have they? The Kurds as a group seem poorly served leading to various conflicts. But India has suffered more as religious intolerance separates rather than unites. The US just barely misses the turmoil.
