Criminally carpet bombs Cambodia, 50,000 people die, causes it to destabilize, the Khmer Rouge takes over, millions more die.

Conspires to get coups d’etats and military dictatorships that spread throughout South America in the 1970s to stop the spread of communism. The drug trade emerges, the war on drugs emerges, millions die, many more suffer.

I don't have the energy to go on. He was a monster and he lived way too long.

The war criminal Henry Kissinger is finally dead.

This is the best summary I could come up with.

Today, celebrate that you survived Henry Kissinger's century of terror.

Then tomorrow continue to weep that the people who still have power loved him and agreed with him.

Dead assholes are my favorite kind of asshole.

Behind the Bastards has a great 6 parter on Kissinger:

May he rot in Hell.

About fucking time the fucker died. Now we just need to wait for the new toilet to open once they shove him i ln the ground.

Eat it, cunt

This is the best summary I could come up with:

Instead, in a demonstration of why he was able to kill so many people and get away with it, the day of his passage will be a solemn one in Congress and – shamefully, since Kissinger had reporters like CBS’ Marvin Kalb and the New York Times‘ Hendrick Smith wiretapped – newsrooms.

Kissinger, a refugee from the Nazis who became a pedigreed member of the “Eastern Establishment” Nixon hated, was a practitioner of American greatness, and so the press lionized him as the cold-blooded genius who restored America’s prestige from the agony of Vietnam.

It was this sort of unacceptable policy that prompted Kissinger to remark, during an intelligence meeting about two months before Allende’s election, “I don’t see why we need to stand idly by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its own people.”

As Corey Robin has documented, Friedrich von Hayek’s neoliberal Mont Pelerin Society held a 1981 meeting in the very city where the junta plotted the replacement of democratic socialism with a harbinger of today’s global economic order.

Five days later, a car bomb emplaced by Pinochet’s agents detonated along Washington D.C.’s Embassy Row, killing Orlando Letelier, Allende’s foreign minister, and his American co-worker, Ronni Moffitt.

The Vietnamese guerilla and justice minister Truong Nhu Tang writes in his Viet Cong Memoir that Kissinger, whose intellect he praises, “inherited a conceptual framework from his American and French predecessors…that led him to disaster.”
