1972 would've been a better time to know this.

1. more on Kissinger:
Trials Of Henry Kissinger
http://www.chomskytorrents.org/TorrentDetails.php?TorrentID=1222
Featuring previously unseen footage, newly declassified US government documents, and revealing interviews with key insiders to the events in question, The Trials of Henry Kissinger examines the charges facing him, shedding light on a career long shrouded in secrecy. In part, it explores how a young boy who fled Nazi Germany grew up to become one of the most powerful men in US history and now, in the autumn of his life, one of its most disputed figures.

What I've Learned About US Foreign Policy
http://www.chomskytorrents.org/TorrentDetails.php?TorrentID=1220
The basic message being that the CIA, the military-industrial-complex, the Pentagon, the multinational corporations, the media and the Government of the United States are responsible for the deaths of millions of people in the third world, not to mention the poverty and oppression of millions more. We support, arm, and train dictators and militaries that do these evil actions to their own people. All of this is to insure that we control the natural resources of these countries and their market place, use the people for cheap labor and keep the business of war (which is our biggest business) ongoing.

3. And people wonder why other nationalities HATE us.
I can't look at the flag the same way that I used to anymore. They've ruined it for me. Not to mention what they ruined for the younger folks. And shudder to think of what has been ruined for the 3rd worlders we have used as fodder-land for war racketeering.

9. You're beginning to see Americans the way foreigners already know us.
Where do you think we got the nickname, "ugly American." The Right has effectively stopped any critical discourse about America by labeling anyone who says anything negative about America as a "Liberal." "Why do you hate America."

That's their method of using PC.

Now you know why the rest of the world hates us.

4. THEY landed a lot earlier...
Up until 1972, THEY had to do work hard in order to conquer the USA.



Drastic measures will be taken to maintain THEIR grip on power. :yoiks:

5. quoting Kissinger
Kissinger's war crimes: East Timor

from declassified documents:

Kissinger: "On the Timor thing, that will leak in three months and it will come out that Kissinger overruled his pristine bureaucrats and violated the law. How many people know about this?

Staff member: "Three."

Kissinger: "Plus everyone in this meeting. Everything on paper will be used against me."

--

Since 1975 roughly 1/3 of the population of East Timor has been killed by the Indonesian army. This genocide is supported by the US, UK and other western nations.

From the documentary "Death of a nation - The East Timor conspiracy" by John Pilger

7. Two Observations
After Kissinger's statement in 1972, I wonder how many tens of thousands of people died for nothing.

John Kerry was right: "how can you ask a man to be the last man to die for a mistake?"

DO BUSH'S LIES MAKE YOU FEEL SAFER?
WHICH ONES?
