Unlike other war criminals from Richard Nixon to George W. Bush, Henry Kissinger’s reputation has never received public rehabilitation. He hasn’t needed it — despite his murderous rap sheet, the media and political establishment has always fawned over him.

    to me Kissinger is just some machine, he was ruthless, barbaric, but very cunning. The other war criminals like George Bush, joe Biden, Victoria Nuland, and even Cheney weren’t nearly as smart or cunning as Kissinger was. It gives me so much satisfaction to see these war-criminals destroy Kissinger’s legacy through their own stupidity. His work, built on the bloods of millions to prop up US imperialism is now collapsing thanks to these war-mongering, unbelievably stupid, imperialist jackals like Nuland and Joe Biden.

    People like him do not care in the slightest about their reputation, but when they see the work they built being torn to shreds, it makes them go ballistic. I hope this guy lives long enough to see the collapse of america, it’ll be the ultimate irony.

    Kissinger is becoming a meme. For sure he is bad. He is very bad. But let’s not make him a scapegoat.

    All the American elite was (and is) corrupt and they are war criminals. Kissinger, sure, but the Clintons (both) the Bush (both), Condoleezza Rice, Colin Powell etc etc - they are AS guilty as Kissinger.

    Focus on the system, not only the names.

    For those of us not very familiar with US politics, the “is” in this title is very confusing 😂
