2. I wonder if this is related to Pinochet's prosecution

Because if the case goes to court, Kissinger will be named.

5. I think so! Of course I'm glad to see that pin head James Woolsey go

with Henry A. Kissinger. They threw out others not to make it look so obvious, 'eh?

4. Not surprised about Kissinger the BBC documentary

The Power of Nightmares did a good job of showing how Kissinger and the NeoCons part company on international policy.

I believe it was covered in part II

6. what kind of reporting is this?

10. I think that's a typo

It makes more sense if it reads, "...contributed to the GOREY of America..."

8. kissinger disagrees with the neocons

The neocons are ideological zealots, who were tight with their buddies
in al queda not long ago. Whereas kissinger believes in balance of
power, not ideology... and is a pragmatist. The zealots of course
have no place for a pragmatist in their new church of the reich.
