Henry Kissinger is dead at the age of 100. The former U.S. statesman served as national security adviser and secretary of state at the height of the Cold War and wielded influence over U.S. foreign policy for decades afterward. His actions led to massacres, coups and and even genocide, leaving a bloody legacy in Latin America, Southeast Asia and beyond. Once out of office, Kissinger continued until his death to advise U.S. presidents and other top officials who celebrate him as a visionary diplomat. Yale historian Greg Grandin says those glowing obituaries only reveal "the moral bankruptcy of the political establishment" that ignores how Kissinger's actions may have led to the deaths of at least 3 million people across the globe. Grandin is author of "Kissinger's Shadow: The Long Reach of America's Most Controversial Statesman."

A criminal.
Good riddance! He had no regard for humanity, only U.S. power.
zionist power. US puppy.
Thank f.u.c.k.i.n.g. God the United States is the only evil,corrupt government. Shades of Brown.....
You mean Israeli Power!!! He was an Israeli citizen!!!
@@pepeshadilayHe was a German citizen of Jewish faith. 💀
His own power.
I was wounded in combat in Vietnam. I saw too many people die for reasons I could not put into words. After somehow surviving that train wreck I read what I could about Kissinger and McNamara. They were sociopathic/psychopathic/whatever war criminals. For years I carried handcuffs in my car on the off chance that I might get close enough to attempt a citizen's arrest. If I couldn't get close I was going to throw the handcuffs at them. My actions would have been futile and I would have paid dearly but that's how angry I was at those architects of death, torture, destruction, chaos, etc.
Live in peace brother. He won't rest in peace!
Im sorry for what you had to endure. For what it is worth, many if us supported and prayed for all of you men on a daily basis in that war. I'm sure most still pray for you all. Those were terrible times.
Love to you Brother 🙏
Glad you made it but the blame for that tragedy rests equally with the Democrats and Republicans.
Thank you for your service. Sorry you had to go through that.😢🫡
What a honorable man was Anthony Bourdain denouncing these crimes.
I'm not convinced he ended his own life.
@@anarcho-communist11Yeah, me neither.
@@anarcho-communist11 I am
That's why he is dead
True, unfortunately he was Epsteined
He won the Nobel Peace Prize! Never knew that. The world is a rediculous place.
Wo did Obama and Julian Assange is in jail without a conviction
Yes we live in a very cruel world
That's a significant detail, so what did you know
It just shows you that the fraudulent “prize” has just been used as a prop to support the narrative in all the fields it purports to give the award to.
Nobel peace prize doesn’t mean anything anymore in lots of peoples eyes.
Am not religious but right now I pray for hell to exist so this man can spend eternity burning. My family as to many others were victims of this criminal.
Sorry for your Loss & Otger Millions.
He got away with It in this World,But not in the Day after / Judgement Day.
Agreed .
You mean in what happened in Central America, Chile in terms of Latin America?
There is a hell. So yes your wish may come true. Inshallallah
What did he do to your family? My family are all victims of Obama, but you don’t see me whining.
To give Kissinger the Nobel Peace Prize is akin to giving "The Shepherd of the Year" award to a wolf.
In a justice world he would have died in jail for crimes against humanity
Free Julian Assange.
The fact he was celebrated, even revered, by both establishment political parties in DC is all you need to know.
That and the whole Jeffery Epstein scandal being swept under the rug.
@@Horizon429exactly! They have no power over us without division! They rob and steal from all the different communities or groups through division and propaganda
Trump hated him. Which is why they all hate Trump.
Exactly. It's like being revered by satan himself
The late asshole Henry Kiss-my-assinger was a follower of staunch racist and fascist Ayn Rand. All of the Central Intel Agency study and read Ayn Rand's work. The RAND Corporation is named after her, a company run by the CIA and State Dept. These imperialists and arrogant capitalists have always followed the zealotry of Kissinger to the letter. Anything Slavic and Russian is anathema to them thus they kept subverting the Left even today. They're intolerant and ultranationalist to the core.
There should never be a statue of limitations on war crimes. He should be judged by his victims
My newborn is trans
muslim as well then
*statute
I'm not aware of auch a thing existing in international law, or of america having any dedicated war crimes legislation.
@@eileenspamer Rofl, you want to go after all people of all religions not specific people?
Hell yes go for them all Bush Obama Cheney Trump prosecute them all
That bastard should have been arrested and put in a prison with the worst conditions in the world! This guy was a demonic monster!
There is nothing decent or diplomatic about him and the fact he was never held accountable speaks volumes.
What arrogance - sociopathic even psychopathic. So sad about all of the people who suffered and died at his hands.
Yes he fits right in, goose stepping with our criminally insane Pentagon to propagate our many illegal wars
Yup.
It seems to be the #1 trait admired by both sides of the aisle. 👹💀👺
Of course its happening right now in Gaza. No real difference between Kissinger
and any of the Americans and Israelis deciding life and death in Gaza.
كذلك يريهم الله أعمالهم حسرات عليهم وما هم بخارجين من النار .
When asked why he stopped writing songs and recording, Tom Lehrer replied that "political satire became redundant once Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize".
Only to be followed up by Obama
Lol is that the bowtie piano guy?
@@pepeshadilay
Mr "poisoning the pigeons in the park." Yup.
Omgawwd...thank you for that fact!✅👍
... And then Obama, who had done precisely zero for peace was also awarded one just to push home the point that Nobel prizes are a sick joke.
Perhaps the most egregious offense committed by Nixon & Kissinger was their undermining of LBJ’s Paris peace talks to prolong the war in Vietnam ultimately leaving under the same ridiculous terms originally negotiated in 1968 by the Democrats or in other words to allow the NVA to remain in place within the borders of the Republic of South Vietnam to better position themselves for the final takedown of the ARVN in 1975 once the Republicans had so enfeebled themselves politically that they could no longer intervene to prevent the takeover during the Ford administration.
So ironic - don't you think? - considering that Richard Nixon ran for President in 1968 mainly on the premise of him being able to end the war during his first administration.
Sometimes. I softly theorise that one reason why characters like him live to a ripe old age, aside from the good things corrupt power can buy is because 1) they don't want to let go of all their corrupt gains, as the main defining substance of their existence so they ' hang on for dear life' and 2) because of a conscious/unconscious terror of maybe having to account for what they have done, even if it is just a light being shone on their actions.
The Nobel Peace Prize has been given to a lot of war criminals.
Obama got the peace prize then proceeded to slaughter prople all.over the world for 8 years straight
Very true!
Can you name the people who won the Nobel prize who have been judged to be guilty of war crimes,
not your opinion but actual criminals.
@@poorthing since the war criminals control Nobel, none will ever be convicted
@@poorthingIf you kill and get away with it, you’re still a murderer. Who would be able to prosecute a prominent, highly regarded american politician for war crimes?
The world is a better place with Henry Kissinger NOT in it! What does God do with these people!
Reward them, he is of the chosen people, right?
They damned themselves to Hell. God has nothing to do with this.
His life is evidence that there is no God.
Makes them fuel of the hell
@@carlkaufman2429He sold his soul which buys you time.
No one of any moral value will shed a tear.
The only downside to the death announcement of Kissinger is that he didn't die in 1969 so that his disastrous neoliberal project would never have happened at all. What a different last 50 years it would have been, what a different future we would be living into.
Oh I have the list, I just need the Time Machine. I would happy wipe myself from history in order to make a better world for everyone else. But knowing this world even worse monsters would take their places.
@@Fenris30 yup
the fact that he was treated as an elder statesman until his last breath, and the fact that he is being honored by manyTODAY, is proof positive of america's evil
Seeing Hillary ingratiate herself to him… 🤢🤮
@@innocentnemesis3519He was her ideal.
@@innocentnemesis3519She's a ghoul too.
You say proof. I say source.
@@frogsodaThey haven't learned that yet.
There's A Special Place In Hell For That Nazi
not saying kissenger was a good person, but how was he a nazi, he was jewish after all.
lol, If the Nazi's won, he wouldn't have been committing _any_ war crimes, or any crimes at all, for that matter.
But he was a Jew.
@@bonitajanssen745 Ironic, isn't it?
As a Jew myself, I cannot bring myself to call another Jew a Nazi. However, Henry Kissinger definitely did things that were very Nazi-like. 😞
The world has no place for these corrupted souls anymore. The time for us the people is dawning.
Henry Kissenger is a prize illustration of the old English saying " The good die young and the bad flourish like the green bay tree."
He described the elderly as “useless eaters”. In his case he was right.
He doesn't get to decide that. Only nature does. The nerve of this psycopath.
He was an Israeli citizen!!! He also referred to non Jews as Cattle !
in his old years killinger got all his crimes on his face deep lines and wrinkles - good riddance and hope he will not be reincarnated
He was talking about third world leeches.
@@HermanIngram chill Hitler there is no German beer here
No tears shed for these control freak sadistic elites
Stay free!
megalomaniacs suck
You are very right !!
As compared to???? You pedophilic Democrats??? Good to know where you stand.
I'm just glad Bangladesh proved him wrong in his life time as he quoted "A bottomless basket" to one of the worlds fastest growing economy in 50 years after his planned genocide in Bangladesh in 1971.
How can someone escape a genocide to only be the cause of one himself! Smh
That seems to be becoming a pattern
@@anyatranter5588fax
I like these candid obituaries
Biggest war criminal in worl history.
he was a zio
do not know about that...many can claim that from the COVID abuse of the last few years and the forced inoculations and procedures leading to death
no the modern day biggest criminal goes to Churchill
@@michaelkendall662they can claim that but they’d be foolish to
After WWII, yes.
I detest this creature, pure evil doer.
I have never understood Anglo elite politicians enthrallment with Kissinger, since in my view his foreign policies were disgusting, egregious, and untenable. Answering
why Kissinger was taken so seriously by Anglo politicians is more important to me because it speaks to how Anglos were so intellectually bankrupt.
You mean: dumb for listening to a sociopath.!!!!
Don't listen to what the community says, look at what the community does
Henry Kissinger occupied a place in US foreign policy that reflects what approaches the "banality of evil.” He was able to defend, with a staight face, the open expansion of war into Cambodia in 1970 that ultimately led to deaths of millions of innocent Cambodian people. Kissinger was one of many in the US foreign policy rogues gallery establishment that transformed me into a war resister during the Vietnam era.
"Banality of evil" - I know that from somewhere. Isn't that how someone described Eichmann, maybe during his trial?
@@craven5328 Yes, that’s the reference.
I seem to remember that the Khmer Rouge (Communists) murdering the Cambodian people. Not Kissinger.
“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 Milosevic" Anthony Bourdain
I spent my high school year praying the Viet war would end. And l would not end up in Vietnam. Even at that age l new it was a dead end. Also became a War protester for life. We are Sparta and it doesnt work.
No court on earth could convict him and now he went to real court where no one can avoid.
Conviction must be done on the Earth. I don't believe the other way around.
@@arpit_prajapati11it must be done on earth too, yes. But, apparently, if you’re powerful enough or have connections with powerful people, then you will receive a Nobel Prize for killing millions of innocent people working in fields to provide for their family.
Killinger will now face God’s justice in the grave, and then on Judgement Day. This is a court he will not be able to escape because even his powerful connections will be brought to it and judged, just like him.
Well said
@@arpit_prajapati11well you don't get what you want and if you think every criminal especially a rich criminal will be prosecuted then you are very naive.
@@markerzuahsiam335 true
Le Duc Tho was the other winner with Kissofdeath, and he refused to accept it with that murderer.
It would've been nice to mention it.
Also, I think some of the Nobel judges left in protest. Not absolutely sure. I was a kid then.
* I have tremendous respect for Mr. Tho, though.
I also viewed him as a war criminal. What a disgrace awarded this human butcher a Nobel Prize
"Anything applied for anything that moved"....
He will meet the three millions he had killed...
Same tactic used by the IDF.
hoping his friend satanyahu joins him the sooner the better@@Stop-and-listen
They said four million.
@@Stop-and-listenThe IDF look at Palestinians as nonhumans, and obstacles to taking land that God meant them to have.🤬 So, their obligations as an occupying force as to the welfare of civilians are pretty much ignored.
They need to be stopped.
Well hold on Rose, you have to ask yourself how much power did he really have? I mean Anthony Blinken is US Secretary of State but know one think's he is a powerful figure.
If Hitler had lived long enough, he would've won the Nobel Peace prize. That's how absurd this is.
Next year Netanyahu? 🤣
@@DOzkayHe'll share it with jęņ0çıdė j0ė 🤮👹💀
Hitler wouldve pacified the jews?
@@DOzkayI here they're discussing it already 😂
Indeed, what do you think about Netanyahu? He is gona receives a nobel peace price too, i think 😢
And now he will pay for his crimes against humanity by burning in hell for all eternity.
His quote "only good people die young " is self explanatory.
Imagine giving this war criminal the Nobel Peace Prize !! 🤦♀️
I remember seeing him in the Nixon administration when I was about 8yrs. old and I got the vibe he was evil back then.
Don't forget they also gave Obama one. Nobel peace prizes are a joke.
be like giving it to gates or fauci
Henry K. was allways back in the shadows of Power. That's what he did with all the Young Boys brought to his plush motel rooms. Evil...🇺🇦🇺🇦
Its always been a Zionist Popular Puppet Award.
i remember my grandfather swearing every time he was on TV
Thank you Ms. Goodman and Democracy Now for your work and commentary. The cowardice of the American government to hold war criminals accountable is infuriating and America has had many Presidents, Vice-Presidents and other high ranking government employees that were/are war criminals.
One of the main reasons that "Dubya" Bush opposed the US joining (and therefore being subject to) the International Criminal Court (ICC) because he, himself, would have been one of the first among them to be brought to trial. And deservedly so.
I don’t see u sending ur pals Assad, ayotolah, Putin etc to the ICC
@@kappa82I don't know who "ayotolah" is, but neither Assad nor Putin have committed war crimes. They've been accused of all sorts of things, but by the people who do actually commit war crimes, who also happen to control the media you clearly consume.
@@austenhead5303 Of course Assad and Putin have committed war crimes, as had Regan, Bush, Clinton, another Bush, Obama, Trump, Biden, and many in their administrations. Send them all to the Hague. Drain the swamp.
Jimmy Carter and William Henry Harrison were probably the only Presidents in history not to commit war crimes, and I'm not so sure about Harrison (just figuring he didn't have time).
@@austenhead5303 go travel a bit son, and leave ur moms basement while, I doubt ull survive too long out there, ur a good comedian
Kissinger should’ve been tried in criminal court for crimes against humanity 40 years ago. It’s a shame he was allowed to live out the rest of his life.
Gratitude to the late great Christopher Hitchens for writing about Kissinger's crimes.
One of the most evil people who ever lived -- not just a "war criminal," but metaphysical evil in the flesh, a body controlled by demons. Absolutely nothing honorable about him or anyone who calls him mentor.
Your'e 100% right! Thank you for sharing your wisdom. We know that evil people have to pay their debts to Him and who will judge them with a fair trial and terrible penalty. People lets feed ourselves with wisdom and the Living Bread daily.
He was the Jew's Jew
@@user-nf7bl7mb5q we are judging Kissinger's actions not where his belly button came from.
Klaus Schwab is his protégé. "Fun" times ahead!
I remember being proud of my Dad when he happily told me his co-op board had denied Kissinger's application.
🤣🤣
Lol
Be super proud that yr dad had a good moral compass.!!!!
Glad to hear that : D
sorry, we don't allow sociopathic war criminals in the building....
Mr. Kissinger was the greatest exporter of American democracy and you easley can see trace of his sacrifices in blood all over Asia, Africa, and South America.
Regardless of your identity, power, or position, everyone will experience mortality. Your actions will be remembered and carry consequences. Every life is precious; it deserves love and respect. Arrogance is ultimately unproductive for everyone involved.
A war criminal to the last breath …
Wondering, if this is the same God who created Angels like Amy Goodman and Evils like Henry Kissinger and Bi Bi Netanyahu?

A fitting tribute to this gentleman on his birthday, November 30. ♥
I never thought Mr Kissinger was a good persons. At a tender age in my homeland, there was nothing else to do but to listen to the western news and Mr Kissinger's name would be on the airwaves, none was not anything worthy of praise.🙏🏼
He will now taste the pain he has caused during his life
The nobel prize has become a joke.
Absolutely 💯
Nobel was a pro-war weapons manufacturer. No ethical person would accept the prize.
Yes, I understood that when they gave one to Obama
It always was. It was used as a false standard to push the narrative.
There should be a movement to revoke it posthumously.
Henry Kissinger may live to a ripe old age, but unlike most individuals, he refuses to acknowledge or apologize for the atrocities he played a part in. His hands are stained with blood, and the repercussions of his actions resulted in the deaths of over 3 million people. This staggering toll, stemming from his decisions, is etched in history, and we will not allow it to fade from memory.
He is apologizing today…
He is meeting the one he deserves to meet.
@@GGTanguera , I guess too late because you only can ask for forgiveness when you are on earth.
Someone that ROTTEN cannot cannot live "to a ripe old age!" 😂😂😂😂
@@GGTanguera
Mercifully!
He got away with it in this world, but he will have to answer for himself in the next.
My best friend in the US has been watching his father die slowly from the consequence of exposure to Agent Orange. Never did he get any help from the government. When he died a few years ago under extreme pain, he got a great military funeral!
Can you imagine how this evil man's soul is now being judged?
Exactly. That's what I said in my comment. He finally meets his maker.
What soul?
They just transfered his "soul" to an unwilling host body, demons like to do that.
Ironically, probably the same as Hitler….
killinger will be reunited with Hitler and Pinochet - good company @@pw323
At this point, I don't trust anyone who wins a Noble Peace Prize.
Right?
Same.
Obama
How about that?
Borock Obongo did. He's a sweet man.
Not many people live to 100, especially in the types of stressful jobs he held. So, here's the question: How many hearts and organs did he receive during his life to reach 100? Was he on a waiting list to receive these organs? Of course not
My dad was very politically avante garde. He told me about the injustices of Vietnam early up. I knew all along that McNamara and Kissinger were some the principal architects of the Indo China quagmire. My fellow GIs used to call me ''professor'' because of my political acumen. I personally mistrusted Kissinger. His scary, mysterious voice gives me a case of the horrors. Gen. Omar Torrijos of Panama called him a ''culebra venenosa'' (poisonous snake) after a 1970s era meeting about the status of the Panama Canal. Kissinger never fooled me. I knew that he was a violent, dangerous promoter of imperialist objectives by ''any means necessary''. He was capable of bombing his own mother's home to achieve his imperialist goals.
During his time in charge of the American foreign policy machine, Kissinger also directed illegal arms sales to Pakistan as it carried out a brutal crackdown on its Bengali population in 1971. He supported the 1973 military coup that overthrew a democratically elected socialist government in Chile, gave the go-ahead to Indonesia’s 1975 invasion of East Timor, and backed Argentina’s repressive military dictatorship as it launched its “dirty war” against dissenters and leftists in 1976. His policies during the Ford administration also fueled civil wars in Africa, most notably in Angola.
Even the most generous calculations suggest that the murderous regimes Kissinger supported and the conflicts they waged were responsible for millions of deaths and millions of other human rights abuses, during and after the eight years he served in the American government.
Yes indeed, he brought death, destructions and miseries to millions of Human race; the evil creature's wings were spread out throughout the Globe. I remember a cover page of the 1970s Time magazine in which this monster was standing over the Globe with one leg over the continents of Africa and Asia and another leg over South America, carrying a portfolio for the destruction of Humanity and the Environment.
Allende was paid by the KGB
He escaped manly justice in this world and lived to 100 years. Let him dodge godly justice in the other world if he can no matter how canning and well connected he is.
Notice he also said, "Only good people die young," and he lived 100 years, I guess his quote applies primarily to him.

"Political satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize"
- Tom Lehrer
This single statement deserves Pulitzer prize.
Moral bankruptcy of the whole country...
No wonder Bush was so sanguine about his warcrimes, justice would not come knocking
There is a special place in hell reserved for people like Kissinger.
The first condition of being Elite is that you have to be Morally Brutal.
. . . as it has been, as it is . . .
You don't have to do anything
You gotta lack morals and ethics and empathy and a heart, basically.
The existence of these kind of people proves that Satan is the God of this earth😢
Thats anything with power though
Henry should have been put on trial in
The Hague... along with George W. B. and Dick C.
He was more loyal to the Royal Institute of International Affairs (Chatham House) than to the United States. His own words.
No one escapes justice. He is in the Ultimate court now with no one to petition for him.
Applying degrees of war criminality because a country has so many of them is just insane.
He was a war criminal.
One of the face and enfeeblement of adversry and it goes to show how long these men live without the same harm they created... SMH
Well... what can one say that will not sound offensive? The world is most certainly a cleaner and better place without war criminals such as him.
Unfortunately there always are plenty to substitute them.
We have a whole government full of war criminals, we need to vote them all out!!!!!

Dearest @wisdom6803, It's so sad because Henry was a born Jew, but he became (in-) famous in this world and I would be terrified when your'e not a (new born) Christian and have to stand trial before The Almighty Lord God.
@user-me6lm5lw8m please note that he was a Godless zionist and that's totally different from being a true Jew. As a matter of fact, our true Jewish brothers suffered a great deal from the insanity, hypocrisy, blasphemy, and devilish actions of the Zionism throughout history for 1000's of years keeping in mind the difference in the naming of "Zionism" in different lapses of history .
Thank you Democracy Now for this information I usually find on conservative media.
Never liked Kissinger while growing up in Illinois. His policies were lopsided and caused upheavals in the world. Not everything he did was without cost to lives and humanity.
He did have one great quote: "An expert is someone who tells those in power what they want to hear."
So sick of the lies our government
Ever hear the Billy Joel song "Only the Good Die Young". It applies here more than anywhere else.
Moral bankruptcy is inevitable because our corporate economy values amorality.
If only Hunter S Thompson was still around we could have a true obituary written about a warmonger who somehow managed to win a Nobel Peace Prize
I’d read such an obit with enthusiasm. And a second obit by Christopher Hitchens to round it off.
