One of the most commonly cited evidence for this is his \\\"This time\\\" line at the end of 2.0, and his \\\"well timed intervention to stop Third Impact\\\". Two things regarding this:

1., Kaworu uses the expression \\\"kondo\\\" (今度) in that particular line, which as you may have guessed it, is ambigous. It can mean \\\"This time\\\" just as it can simply mean \\\"Now\\\", as in \\\"Right now\\\". The Japanese version was, apparently, going for open interpratation, so singling out this particular line as a basis of a theory is a bit brash, IMO.

2., \\\"His oddly well timed intervention\\\" can be explained by the fact that he is working for Seele. I mean, it was Seele who constructed him his Eva and brought him the spear with which he ultimately stopped Third Impact. Also, it was mentioned by Gendo himself in 2.0 that he suspects that Seele might know of what he is up to (and getting Third Impact started using Unit-01 is a pivotal part in Gendo\\\'s plans). What i\\\'m trying to say is that stopping T. I. at the end of 2.0 doesn\\\'t imply omniscience on Kaworu\\\'s part as much as it implies that Seele still has the upper hand over Gendo.

Well, those are some of the common points and my counter-points. Discuss!

It seems to be a pretty prevalent theory within the fandom that the Rebuild continutiy is a Peggy Sue-plot with Kaworu at the helm.
