has Henry Kissinger commented on the whole Kerry Vietnam thing ?

[JI7]

i think it would be a good idea to hear what he has to say about all the things being said about kerry now.

also that guy colson i think is still alive. in fact it would be nice to hear from all those at the top in those days comment on this.

1. Why?

Henry Kissinger is a war criminal republican who's probably calling a lot of these dirty shots from behind the curtain.

What the hell would you expect him to gutterally utter?

Kissinger must HATE John Kerry. And you can bet it's mutual

[JI7]

2. yup, exactly why i would be interested in what he has to say

[Nordic]

3. it would have no meaning whatsoever

just more propagandistic bullshit

[JI7]

4. i know, but coming from kissinger

do you think it could give their side less credibility considering kissinger?

it's like when oliver north accused Kerry of lying in front of congress.

5. I actually think

that most, if not many Americans actually think of him as an elder diplomat, and not of the war criminal he actually is.

The media has certainly treated him with royal gloves over the years, having him on every so often for his "wisdom" and "expertise".

I don't give a shit what any of thos Nixon goons have to say. I did hear though that Colson asked for Kerry's forgiveness a few years ago. Apparently he become a born again evangelical.

6. good point

that's probably true. i think kissinger was at the 2000 olympics handing out medals.

colson should get out there and defend kerry though and tell of how him and nixon and all the other things they did that was wrong.

"I'd rather use the nuclear bomb."

—Nixon to Kissinger, a few weeks before he ordered a major escalation of the Vietnam War in 1972


"You're so goddamned concerned about the civilians, and I don't give a d—n. I don't care."

—Nixon to Kissinger in 1972, admonishing his aide about concerns over killing Vietnamese civilians


This exchange between White House chief of staff Alexander Haig and Kissinger reveals Nixon jokingly threatening to drop a nuclear bomb on Congress as it moves to impeach him in March 1974:

Haig: "I was told to get the football."

Kissinger: "What do you mean?"

Haig: "His black nuclear bag ... He is going to drop it on the Hill."


Nixon and aide Charles Colson in June 1972 discuss the successes produced by a recent military buildup in the Vietnam War:

Colson: People are beginning to sense that we're doing pretty damn well, that American casualties are down, which they are … 19 Americans killed last week. They're used to hearing about 25 killed on automobiles in a weekend …

Nixon: … We want to decimate that god----ed place … North Vietnam is going to get reordered … It's about time. It's what should have been done years ago.

8. How's that relevant?

That's what Nixon said, not Kissenger.
