It gives me no pleasure to report that Kissinger got tangled up in his bedsheets getting out of bed and then fell down and his dick flopped out and he got so scared he started pissing on his own face but he was so tangled up that he drowned in his own piss and then he poo poo himself and it smelled real bad and the paramedics decided it was medically necessary to burn his house down because of how bad his poo poo smelled so Rest In Pissinger

I dunno man finding it hard to celebrate the fact that this guy got to engage in a full century of unrepentant evil before dying in his sleep or whatever.

Sometimes when you know these people are never going to face criminal or karmic justice you just have to try to find satisfaction with them being gone forever. And hey, maybe hell is real.

This does actually seem like something Nixon would do

And I take it to mean opening relations with China rather than Vietnam but I could have been both!

I was a little fuzzy on some of the details, but from reading a few of the articles posted here it sounds like he was pretty much the US Hitler, but without the common human decency to kill himself?

Henry Kissinger died on Wednesday at his home in Connecticut, his consulting firm said in a statement. The notorious war criminal was 100.

Measuring purely by confirmed kills, the worst mass murderer ever executed by the United States was the white supremacist terrorist Timothy McVeigh. On April 19, 1995, McVeigh detonated a massive bomb at the Murrah federal building in Oklahoma City, killing 168 people, including 19 children. The government killed McVeigh by lethal injection in June 2001. Whatever hesitation a state execution provokes, even over a man such as McVeigh — necessary questions about the legitimacy of killing even an unrepentant soldier of white supremacy — his death provided a measure of closure to the mother of one of his victims. “It’s a period at the end of a sentence,” said Kathleen Treanor, whose 4-year old McVeigh killed.

McVeigh, who in his own psychotic way thought he was saving America, never remotely killed on the scale of Kissinger, the most revered American grand strategist of the second half of the 20th century.

The Yale University historian Greg Grandin, author of the biography Kissinger’s Shadow, estimates that Kissinger’s actions from 1969 through 1976, a period of eight brief years when Kissinger made Richard Nixon’s and then Gerald Ford’s foreign policy as national security adviser and secretary of state, meant the end of between three and four million people. That includes “crimes of commission,” he explained, as in Cambodia and Chile, and omission, like greenlighting Indonesia’s bloodshed in East Timor; Pakistan’s bloodshed in Bangladesh; and the inauguration of an American tradition of using and then abandoning the Kurds.
