To Henry Kissinger
12-1-2
"The US must carry out some act somewhere in the world which shows its
determination to continue to be a world power."
-- Henry Kissinger, post-Vietnam blues, as quoted in The Washington Post,
April 1975
"Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to
restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful. This is especially true if
they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or
promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all
peoples of the world will plead with world leaders to deliver them from
this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented
with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for
the guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world
government."
-- Henry Kissinger speaking at Evian, France, May 21, 1992 Bilderburg
meeting. Unbeknownst to Kissinger, his speech was taped by a Swiss
delegate to the meeting.
"I don't see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due
to the irresponsibility of its people. The issues are much too important
for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves."
-- Henry Kissinger, Secretary of State under Richard Nixon, about Chile
prior to the CIA overthrow of the democratically elected government of
socialist President Salvadore Allende in 1973
"Why should we flagellate ourselves for what the Cambodians did to each
other?"
-- Henry Kissinger - who (with Richard Nixon) was responsible for the
massive bombing of Cambodia in 1973, which killed three-quarters of a
million peasants and disrupted Cambodian society, setting the stage for
Pol Pot to come to power and ultimately kill another one-and-a-half
million people
"Covert action should not be confused with missionary work."
-- Henry Kissinger, commenting on the US sellout of the Kurds in Iraq in
1975
"The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer."
--Henry Kissinger
