I got some general answers, so he is another Dick Cheney (who also made his connections in the Nixon WH)? Yuck, no wonder my parents hate the man with a passion! I can only read about some of the stuff he did, which by any standards were war crimes against more than one nation!

Let his infamy be his footnote in history imo.

And he absolutely despises Kissinger. Many of us remember his crimes against humanity.

"a defender of human rights" in her suck-up review of his latest "book."

That really should tell you all you need to know about the reviewer.

Kissinger should have been hanged thirty years ago.
