      Once you’ve been to Cambodia, you’ll never stop wanting to beat Henry Kissinger to death with your bare hands. You will never again be able to open a newspaper and read about that treacherous, prevaricating, murderous scumbag sitting down for a nice chat with Charlie Rose or attending some black-tie affair for a new glossy magazine without choking. Witness what Henry did in Cambodia – the fruits of his genius for statesmanship – and you will never understand why he’s not sitting in the dock at The Hague next to Milošević.

      4 million deaths can be directly attributed to this asshole. Many, many, many more indirectly. He was the last member of the Nixon cabinet still alive.

    Political satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel peace prize.

      Thank goodness this is Lemmy, not R*ddit. I’m not gonna go check, but I can only imagine the mods over there are treating the thread like Kissinger treated Cambodia.

        So I was in a good enough mood to check it out and the current mood is celebratory. I didn’t see any removed comments unless they hide them completely now.
