Giving the Nobel Peace Prize to Henry Kissinger is like giving the Nobel Physics prize to a flat Earther.
Ye lol

spot on
Same with the Austrian Painter
That's such a horrible analogy but right on spot 😂
Henry Kissinger being awarded Nobel peace prize has to be the irony of the century
Obama's?
@@philippedelteil2489both were monsters but Kissingers awards were worse
Same as for Obama.
I feel like Obama's was more pathetic, but not worse. I mean, his was entirely speculative, and obviously he turned out to be disappointing at best. But also it's not like he'd done a bunch of terrible things when they awarded him the prize. Kissinger on the other hand, much of this stuff about him was known when they awarded the prize, which makes it a lot worse, and to be slightly fair to the Nobel committee, the thing they awarded him the prize for did actually happen (of course, there's a very strong argument that peace would have happened sooner without Kissinger, but he did ultimately negotiate the thing).
he went back door with Communists then the republic of Vietnam back then lose the war
One thing to bitterly remember: You are never a war criminal as long as you are the winner of the war. There are no crimes, if you're the one writing the laws.
true
He didn’t win wars that he started. Most fell flat in his face. He was shielded by an obscenely rich and powerful country built on occupation of Native American land. Conscience is only a perspective away.
@@sauravbhattacharjee6429He, in fact , started the Vietnam War.
Ok... no ... but... Vietnam stuff was a de-colonization from Europe, a wise man could offer help and try to do it more faster than China or Russia.
Occupation of native land? The USA is over 200 years old. I don't think the natives are getting back a land where they now are 1% of the population.

That's how we ended W2. It is said the bombs that killed tens of thousands as an result, are good numbers since it saved countless more. 😢
As a Cambodian it’s really heart-breaking to see how my family suffered through hand of this man whilst seeing him die peacefully with his family gathered around him and not being punished for his actions at all. He truly is a war criminal but of course the winners don’t really get prosecuted for war crimes now do they?
He's now in the underworld and I doubt he's peaceful down there with the wicked.
But he didn't win Indochina? They all but Thailand fall into Communists.
Really sad to read what your family went through. Maybe we cannot hold him accountable over your country’s massacre, but he has dehumanising flaws in his policies which is his own responsibility and action - bad choices and unnecessarily dreadful consequences. No one is above the law of conscience, regardless of any victory wars.
He’s in hell
This proves that there is life after death. And a day of judgment.
10:20 Wow it's actually insane the ability of Americans to always trying to justify what they did during the Cold War like somehow all the wars, coups, genocides and dictators they supported can be justified cause they were in a Cold War. Just cause you're having a Cold War with another superpower, doesn't mean you get or should do any of these horrible things or trying to justify all the horrible things Kissinger did
And they were just supposed to let other dictators take over their various countries?

The Soviets were the greater evil. The Holodomor proved it.
The amount of people still affected by this mans actions after all of these years is terrifying
As a Cambodian, I always hear my grandparents talk about how this guy destroyed Cambodia and later led to Khmer Rouge regime which wiped out half of the population. Thank you so much for bringing this to the public because it’s very sad that this type of people got the noble peace price after what he had done to my country. Right now, Cambodia is getting better and I hope no country in this world will experience on what Cambodia experienced.
Palestine is going through it right now. I can tell from your comment, it’s probably not something you involved yourself in. Bad things happen when good people stay silent.
He was a Jew. Seriously, what else do you need to know?
Not trying to excuse what Kissinger did, but the Khmer Rouge regime is definitely not his fault and lies on the Cambodian people on choosing proper leadership. It’s now a shining example of the importance of good leadership in Asia. Speaking as a Singaporean.
I bet you can't guess what is the most heavily bombed country in history.
It's Laos.
More munitions were dropped on Laos by American forces in from the mid 60s to early 70s than were detonated during the entirety of World War 2. Most were cluster bombs, dropped indiscriminately on civilian populations. In secret. Facilitated by the CIA. When America was not at war with Laos. Kissinger ordered that.
He did heaps of other heinous shit too, that's just one example.
I visited Cambodia a few years ago. Such a beautiful place and people, considering the recent past. Happy to hear you say its improving and hope it continues
The full quote:
“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. While Henry continues to nibble nori rolls and remake at A-list parties, Cambodia, the neutral nation he secretly and illegally bombed, invaded, under-mined, and then threw to the dogs, is still trying to raise itself up on its one remaining leg.”

"Was Henry Kissinger a War Criminal?"
...yes
I love how the "Indonesian dictator" in this video is essentially He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.
I guess most Indonesians never approve Timor Leste
who
Suharto. And the genocide he committed against his own people overshadows what he did to the Timorese. And the USA helped him with that as well.
As someone who is of Cambodian descent and has been there many times. Even though many people in the western world haven’t seen the destruction and victims of this man’s policies because they weren’t highly reported on by the media. The millions of victims to this indiscriminate brutality do exist. Although many have passed on, the crimes of the Nixon administration and Kissinger policies have had generational consequences of death, hundreds of thousands of amputees and severe poverty to an innocent nation. A nation that has never threatened or harmed the USA but was bombed into destruction because they were there.
Yes louder
Important story to be told.
Laos still hasn't recovered from all the AO and mining he set on them. My first mentor was a Cambodian refugee, so I've never forgotten what he did or didn't have faces to put to his awfulness.
Just alt f4 your country and move somewhere else it's not hard
@@internet_userrName checks out
Asking if Henry Kissinger was a war criminal, with this much evidence on the table, and then going "Well... it depends! It was certainly a difficult time" is honestly infuriating
he does that with every single topic
He does that literally every time. In the JFK video too. Maybe he wants to keep things bland so he doesn't lose credibility and people actually listen, or maybe he just doesn't want to sound like a nut or lose support.
@@juice8._777 I think he believes those were awful things the West and Europeans had to do to stay on top. And I believe he agrees with the decisions Kissinger made because America wouldn’t be as powerful as it is today if it didn’t commit war crimes and terrorize it’s enemies. He’s a little bit conflicted about it but he’s a Western chauvinist at the end of the day.
If you are wondering, he is a jew
Welcome to Johnny Harrisay
It's very strange that certain individuals are never the targets of assassination attempts, even in a country overflowing with guns.
I’m sure he paid for good security. He was also beloved by the elites, so he had nothing to worry about.
I wonder if *Henry Kissinger* used to sleep with a copy with *Mein Kampf* under his pillow.
"Even if he were still alive". He lived for 100 years and he was still not held accountable for all the destruction he has done.
US for your, I don't know if there is justice in the world, because if there is a Justice we should see the US paying for it's crime but nothing happening to them yet.
That whats beyond baffling he got away with it all.
Don't worry he will get retribution in the Hereafter.If you objective Believe in Justice.
Well he had the support of the US government. What do you expect.
@@Aquacrystal78Hopefully he is frying in the fires, right next to Rush Limbaugh.

@@roughhabit9085 Their responsibilities faded when “freedom” corrupted
Thank you Johnny. I am living in Cambodia. Henry will always be remembered. No words can describe what he has done to Cambodian people.
As a Bangladeshi, it's difficult to think about the Liberation war and genocide of 1971 and ignore the effect Kissinger had over the whole event. He was a butcher, responsible for bloodshed in Bangladesh, Vitenam, Cambodia and many more war zones he has been involved in.
“To be an enemy of America can be dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal.” - Henry Kissinger LOOK AT SADDAM HUSSEIN, THE KURDS. UKRAINE, ETC
Also the people died in 1974 famine in Bangladesh may have things to say about him
Hardly a genocide. That picture he showed in this video was literally of Pro-Pakistani bengalis being lynched after the war was over. Edit: all of my comments are being deleted what is this bs
@@dranflame_1236 I witnessed the genocide in 1971 . My experience is not video based it is real life. Have you ever seen dead bodies on the streets and being eaten by dogs ? Or a river carrying thousands of dead bodies? If 3 million death is not genocide then I do not know what is a genocide.
Mind Begs the Question:
- USA Govt installed Shah on Iran
- USA,Allies dont install Dictators
- On Other/Islamic Nations
- To Control them by Proxy?
I am from Chile, and my country is still suffering the consequences of Kissinger's actions. Some time after the coup, the militaries raided my mother's house and took my grandfather away, then they held him in a barracks and tortured him for weeks. When he came back, my mother tells me that he was never the same, he was traumatized for life and had to start taking sleeping medications as he suffered from critical insomnia, which deteriorated his health until he finally passed away. There are many people here whose family members or friends were murdered, and that was a product of the actions and orders that this genocidaire took from his desk in Washington. I hope he and Nixon now burn in hell.
I suggest you don't watch Johnny Harris absolutely white washes the coup in Chile, he completely glances over the CIA setting up Pinochet and the bombing that the US was entirely behind of. If you don't know, Johnny Harris is highly assumed to be a CIA asset or paid by them or an organization backed by the CIA. He somehow meets the devil, Kissinger himself at think tank(political propaganda group) which Kissinger is meeting at with HIM. The "political historian" Johnny claims to be, with a whole team, doesn't know who HERNY KISSINGER IS

I didn't realize that they bombed EVERYWHERE in Cambodia. I used to think it was only the Ho Chi Minh Trail. This is practically genocide.
the amount of people in this comment section who’ve been personally affected by his decisions is so heartbreaking. it’s terrifying to think that this man used real people and countless countries as political pawns, and as a result of his violent actions, he was able to live his life comfortably. how fucking psychotic our world is.
Yes, he was a war criminal, and it’s bizarre seeing articles in DailyMail etc making him sound like some great human being.
Well the Daily Mail is right wing propaganda. So it doesn’t surprise me that they would release an article building up a terrible person.
Well, he is also a US-American. That is why he is allowed to do war crimes.
The belief that the US (and the West by extension) doesn’t employ propaganda against their own populations to maintain the status quo is just that - a “belief” without any grounds in reality.
I don’t think there’s anything bizarre about the Daily Mail making evil people look pleasant.
@@andromeda45188 There's no record of him becoming a Nazi. Never was he in alliance to Hitler or the Nazi Party, while he never showed any affiliation to Nazism. Oh, that's right, you're one of those folks that labels anyone evil a Nazi, literally corrupting the meaning of the word.
He received information regarding the massacre of bengalis and suppressed the information. Yes, he is a war criminal.

I just love the term “think tank”. Makes you believe the people working for it can actually think.
As a Cambodian, this is heart-wrenching, and I can attest that Cambodia faces one of the highest landmine threats. I truly appreciate the CMAC team, who have been working tirelessly to remove mines from Cambodia.
Kissinger was obsessed with leaks about the secret bombing of Cambodia. I have some personal insight into that question. Years ago, I was friends in Washington, D.C. with a woman (now deceased) who had worked for the Agency for International Development. As part of her job, she handled top-secret papers related to Cambodia. Some of her reports were getting stolen. Sections that had been plainly lifted appeared in newspapers, but certain numbers would be simply, freely changed, for political motives that were not always even clear. All other text unchanged, but just brazen alteration of numerical values. My friend had no idea how the thefts of her reports occurred, but she was treated as a suspect and interrogated by burly FBI agents (she demonstrated by folding her arms and imitating the intimidating style).
I will never forget how she told me, "The government was saying that they were not bombing in Cambodia. I was IN Cambodia, and HEARD the bombing, EVERY DAY."
This was one of my first life wake-ups to the reality of government and media lies.

@@lappodamy5826 Not the point of my comment. I wasn’t implying that the value should be higher or even an actual value. My only point is that he obviously DID put a value on life and it was obviously very low compared to himself and his ambitions.
Nixon and Kissinger, in a collective generalisation of a losing battle with former Indian prime minister Indira Gandhi, burst out on Indian women at large by calling them “Sexless” which was accessed in tapes reported in the New York Times. Kissinger addressed Indian intervention in East Pakistan by stating , “They are scavenging people”...

@drakedugan8488 the question you have to ask is, does that warrant hundreds of thousands of tons of bombs dropped and unexploded ordinances that make large swaths of the country unlivable to this day? Or does it warrant the decimation of the population to the point where the country still hasn't recovered?
What's a cambodia?
Kissinger isn’t just a war criminal, he’s basically the vilest kind of Metal Gear villain
If an author wrote him in a piece of fiction as the villain, we would all go nah, no way such evil can exist

Happy holidays and keep up the great work and videos.

When I saw this on the news, the only footnote about him was that "he helped end the Vietnam war". Disgusting, and tells you everything you need to know about the political and media establishment.
sad truth is most people are dont know about it and just believe the media, not only this but multiple other things
Henry Kissinger was a real life Bond villain. The world is a better place without him.
This right here ❤
next plz
george soros is alive.there are many evil in America.
If you are wondering, he is a jew
Hope you know there are thousands of Henry Kissingers across the globe waiting for their time. Just fyi
He was tremendously insightful. He defended USA’s interests in the best possible way, BUT…….
as a Greek, who grew up in Cyprus, there is not a single cell inside me that does not hate this man…..
Makes you realize the cost of being a “free American” the destabilization of others so we could live ok lives
Thank you for honesty. I wish there are information not affected by political powers for people to know the truth
It's bittersweet. I wish Anthony Bourdain had been around to see this day. "Once you've been to Cambodia, you'll never stop wanting to beat Henry Kissinger to death with your bare hands"
I hope, in the afterlife somewhere, Anthony Bourdain is getting his fists ready for the best beatdown in the Afterlife since Princess Diana and Queen Elizabeth lmfao
I never wish death upon anybody as a matter of principle., but Kissinger absolutely is in the “I’m not sad that you died” and “the world is slightly better because you’re no longer in it” categories.
May I also remind you the fact that our Native American population in our motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions.
Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering TWO BILLION! A shocking sad truth.
In my humble opinion, it's about time to decolonize the Colonized lands, and return it to rightful owners Native American people.
Notorious global cardinal crimes the Christian West has committed, and benefited a great deals, such as Slavery & Colonialism had long been over, why on earth is notorious Colonization still lingering on, may I ask?
Yep, just waiting for Soros and other like them now! Popcorn waiting.
AMEN
Unfortunately for humanity, he is just one of many....
Slightly better?
Sadly India wants to take away our londis from us but we eventually won Bangali girls as gift at last but Johnny Haris misled it 😢

I'm a dedicated viewer from India, and I've greatly benefited from your insightful videos. Recently, I observed that CZcams introduced a feature allowing users to switch audio tracks to different languages. This has proven to be extremely beneficial for content accessibility, as demonstrated by major CZcamsrs like MrBeast.
Considering the diverse global audience, I believe incorporating multilingual audio tracks in your videos could significantly enhance the learning experience for viewers who encounter language challenges. This feature has the potential to make your valuable content accessible to a wider international audience.
Thank you for considering this suggestion. Looking forward to more enriching content from you.
We still have Henry Kissinger in the office his name is Antony blinken he’s some as Kissinger
Thank you for making this video. We Cambodians were silent victims. We really fully went back to stone age in the 70s because of that devil of a man.
Totally evil. I'm so sorry for your family.
Having lived in cambodia for over a year, this video was just heartbreaking. The Cambodian people are still reaping the consequences of this man's war crimes. What a terrible, terrible human being. This man's sick story should be taught in all high schools... I feel ashamed to just be finding out about him.
You're right, it should be taught! But it likely isn't to keep the US people blind and dumb to the abuse of power, our governments usual m.o. sad.
And they gave him a peace ✌️ prize! 😮 free Palestine 🇵🇸

Anyone who wants to know how the devil looks like once he takes appearance of a human been !
Yo, solid video
Glad the journalism has gone up
Nothing is more American than being unable to distinguish between your heroes and monsters.
If Johnny Harris wants to do a video that's will have an impact for people today, he should do a video on Joe Biden and his crime family instead on a corpse that ruined lives decades ago.
Poetic but meaningless.
Nothing more Russian than turning monsters into heroes.
@@pjhgerlachquantity over quality, is more Russian.
Did you even watch the video? He makes it pretty clear that Kissinger was a bad person that brought a lot of destruction and suffering.
Whenever I talk politics with my dad and bring up Nixon, he always reminds me of Kissinger. There are many pieces and individuals who are a part of evil acts.
@user-tn8uu2cu8g 🤣
@You-Need-Therapy He also sabotaged peace talks to extend the Vietnam war. To help Richard Nixon win the presidential election.
The amount of destruction this man a caused is disgusting
Bombing Cambodia, why was he not charged with ward crimes? Sickening!!
Seeing how many people were personally affected by this man in this comment section is actually quite shocking. I knew a little bit about him, but never knew how terrible he actually was
Edit. Spelling
I have experience with users on these topics: everything what paints the "West " in bad light and divides its citizens by picking a topic like this is rife with paid trolls both from Kremlin's and CCP's trollfarms. Even if part of this is true and users speak genuinely, the backlash against US (or pick your westrn power) is artificially inflated. This time there is many genuine people with their point of views and storis, but i find fake actors and actual Nazis by discourse among them. And Harris is a pretty dim grifter giving platform to all kinds of propagandists, so take everything on this channel with a grain of salt. Kissinger was in the wrong and caused a lot of suffering, but some stuff in here is just vile misinformation, pushed by enemies of the US, and getting paid for it. ( Just take random commentators, especially those claiming "personal experience" or wild conspiracist conclusions with a grain of salt. You can't trust what's written here, because your enemies assume some if you will.
Kissinger was recruited by David Rockefeller and mentored Klaus Schwab. Also, when Allen Dulles was serving as an OSS agent in Berlin after WW2, Kissinger was his interpreter. Dulles later went on to become the CIA Director.
@@jessebauer7372 I never knew that. I knew about the Dulles brothers because they ran a law firm which had lots of German clients so he had considerable pull after ww2 during the nuremberg trials. Weird that while watching all these documentaries etc Kissinger never turned up in them
@jessebauer7372
Rockefeller suggested that Kissinger befriend Buckley incase they won the Republican nomination. But Buckley hated Rockefeller so he never had a chance. The Nixon Foundation states that “Buckley’s support was considered not just beneficial but crucial “. After Nixon won Buckley introduced him to Kissinger. When in office George Bush became Director of the CIA. Bush was Skull and Bones like Buckley.
Thank you for acknowledging the suffering caused by Kissinger’s power moves in Southeast Asia. My family came to the US as refugees after the end of the Cambodian genocide there and my mom has vivid memories of hiding in a shallow dirt bunker as war planes flew overhead. Seeing the map with the locations bombed in your video, it is astonishing how solidly red the area of my family’s home village is. I’m saddened but not surprised that he wreaked havoc in other parts of the world.
I’m very sorry for the destruction your family suffered through but I’m glad you’re here and glad they’re here now.
Just pray the creator bring justice and judge this monster.

Jesús invites you to love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. To remember of the importance of compassion, love, and selflessness while forgiving those who have wronged you.
Jesus reminds you that treating all people with kindness and respect, regardless of their background or circumstances equates to loving God.

Is the sky blue?
It’s heartbreaking to see the greediness of one man can lead to the most horrific event in my country. It’s just disgusting. Millions died, lost their homes, and love ones during that period. Shame to you Henry.
You can't shame someone who has none to begin with.
@@MrBoDiggetylol true
God is not blessing him he was a criminal
Rest assured that at this very moment he's being punished in his grave for every single horrible thing he has done when he was alive. Rest assured that he will be dragged to hell without further questions in the judgement day and continue to be punished,.. repeatedly for eternity.
For what? Henry Kissinger wasn't in the Pentagon he not a general. I have serious doubt as to how much President Nixon really listen to him at times.
This is probably first time in my life when an old man died and the whole world was like “ The world is a better place without him”. Interesting!!
Won't be the last time, either.
We had that when Thatcher died.
Not the first, and not the last. People said the same when Reagan died. After a point, you do so much damage to the world and inflict so much harm on others that you don't deserve respect.
Thats not true. Those with actual knowledge (not just surface level) realize the situation was complex at the time and can't be boiled down to a single man who wasn't even the president. The US backed anti-communist efforts in the world for that sake alone. That was the agenda. Maybe it was a good agenda since we don't know how the world would look today if that didn't happen.
If you are wondering, he is a jew
I recommend the book First They Killed My Father by Loung Ung. It is a powerful book about her experience growing up in the Cambodian genocide.
Kissinger Peace Price is like the Pope inviting the Devil to the Vatican.
Chile, Laos, Bangladesh, Cambodia and so on...

Don't forget all africa
He also ignored the Tiananmen square massacre and never held the Chinese government accountable for oppresing their people

"Was Henry Kissinger a War Criminal?"
No, because he made sure he was on the winning team. Committing war crimes doesn't make you a war criminal. Committing war crimes AND losing makes you one. What a world we live in.
Very good comment
I agree
US lost the Vietnam war
as with anything, intelligence is only as good as its use. the law is a negative force not a positive one, and to make it otherwise is to become like henry.
@@DS-ob3gt And Kissinger still won. He even got a Nobel Peace price out of it. Quite remarkable if you ask me...Guess he wasn't "Team America"
Is this US logic?
this video opens up with the question: "was Kissinger a war criminal?" and honestly, after listening to Johnny's nuanced and cold-headed analysis I think i may have actually shifted my definite opinions about him and made my mind..
yes. yes, he was. Kissinger is the embodiment of what terroristic imperialism is capable of doing with absolute impunity.
Long live the American Imperialism 🇺🇸💙
He's what he is first. He only exploited the imperialism of which you speak.
He was born in Germany to Jewish parents tho. That says it all

My country, Indonesia, lost some of its territory, wealth and assets because of this man. Truly despicable
I was wondering where you get all of your maps from?
What I find funny is the media’s reaction to his death and the absolute reluctance to call him what he was. CNN and the like are just paying tribute without saying much and Fox News have gone off the deep and end praising him for all he has done. Goes to show the power and deep fear that he created even in his old age.
Laughing every time I see mealy mouth bs like “he was a controversial figure”
And their praising of George Bush and Murderess Albright.
The courtier press loves the ruling class. The worst thing they'll call him is "controversial".
the Rollingstone ran a "Henry Kissinger, War Criminal Beloved by America’s Ruling Class, Finally Dies" headline with the additional "Good Riddance" uptop
as per usual
I visited Cambodia about ten years ago, in my early twenties. There’s a museum there, way out in one of the villages, that is dedicated to all the casualties of the innocent civilians who had stumbled upon a bomb from the sixties, and lost their lives, and in many cases, lost several limbs. I had never known that the US had done this… and one of the salvaged bombs that didn’t detonate was shown at the end of the museum walkway… with a giant US flag still on it.
The museum was used to fund the orphanage next door, which was filled with children who were missing limbs, whose parents had been blown up and killed.
It’s appalling what happened there, but it’s even more appalling that i was never taught about it, until I actually went to Cambodia and saw the carnage for myself.
Study USA war history. There's much more where that came from. Contrary to what Hollywood films show, USA is not the hero, it is the villain.

When the Khmer Rouge took over they killed a free Cambodia
@@HBC423 Khmer Rouge may have killed more people than Kissinger did, but it was BECAUSE of Kissinger's actions, the people saw Khmer Rouge as liberators against the U.S... only to find out later, they were even worse!
Huge fan of your channel! I think it would be cool to have a video that investigates this college football playoff scandal as well as the Michigan cheating scandal. I think there might be some interesting info that might come up with some digging. Could make for a cool video.
Thank you for the video!
I just had one strange episode while watching it: were you intentionally not saying names of Pinochet and Suharto and just calling them "this Chilean general" and "this Indonesian dictator"? It felt a little... lazy? Like part of information I could get wasn't there. But maybe it's only me. (Still write a comment in case there is an idea behind not naming names of dictators)
