Christopher Hitchens details his research on the war crimes of Henry Kissinger. Hitchens details Kissinger's involvement in assassination, torture, and mass murder in Virtname, Cambodia, Chile, Bangladesh, and the USA.
Humanity really needs to find a way to stop giving authority to psychopaths.
Easy. Stop voting Democrat.
So deport the Jews 😂
Nobody pursues positions of authority more than psychopaths.
Americans had Kissinger and Britain had Churchill, amazing similarities
Only psychopaths seek authority
Christopher had the guts to stand up and tell the truth (often unpleasant and unwelcome).
We need another like him.
Pat Hitch is 20/20 and wrong.

@@FrankCoffman
Of course. You’re correct. Have a biscuit and a condescending pat on your angry head.
💋
He’s finally gone, at 100 years old, never spent a day in prison for his crimes. How many millions of lives did he ensure never got close to 100 like him?
I will say, it is moments like these that make me wish I was Christian. Knowing that there would be a place Kissinger would go to pay for all the crimes he committed would be very comforting. Alas.
I say that punk Kissinger was killing these people for money and he is apart of the others that want depopulation just like they are doing now with covid that keep mutating as times progresses
Kissinger’s hideous corpse is now desecrating Arlington
Don't sell Kissinger short. He would have gladly killed as many 100 year old people as necessary had they gotten between him and his pathological lust for power.
Kissinger just died, so I'm listening to this to get a viewpoint that you won't hear on the major networks.
Me too.
Is this hitchens reading his book??
@@rahuldahoob probably. He does read the other books he wrote.
@@rahuldahoobnot really . He reads some passages from his book but mostly he has speeches .
Mainstream news???
Wish Hitch could have been around to write his obituary.
He wrote his epitaph decades ago😊
"its just a shame that there is no hell for him to go to" would have been his reply
"If you gave him an enema, you could bury him in a matchbox." -Hitch on Jerry Falwell
One of the greatest and most accurate insults ever coined.
Christopher should posthumously win the Nobel Peace Prize. What a great man.
The Nobel prize in literature at least.
no way after 911 he become a fascist and supporting the illegal invasion of iraq he said and i quote, so what if were addicted to oil
The nobel peace prize no longer has any cred or validity when it was given to Obama with no runs on the board who went on to sign off on the drone bombing of innocents destroy Libya, Syria and ......
And which one of his works do you think deserves such an award? I've read all of his books and I can't think of one. This of a genuine question. Cheers.
Right, I am sure he would love to be deified.
I am sorry that Mr. Hitchens is dead. He was a voice in the dark. Thanks to him we have knowledge we need.
Americans had Kissinger and Britain had Churchill
@DavidStacey-hy9qz Comparing Kissinger to Churchill is akin to comparing Perry Como to Beethoven.
your comment makes no sense. @@roberthill799
@@roberthill799 of course I don't expect arrogant Brits to agree
I say he was lucky to never have to have witnessed the fascist cult that infected our country.
So sad that Christopher Hitchens is no longer with us. IMO he was one of the great thinkers of our time. Our world would be a better place if we had some more of his kind, RIP, Hitch. I agree with him wholeheartedly that Kissinger should have been tried for the mass murders he was responsible for in Chile, Bangladesh and elsewhere. Kissinger is definitely one of the most evil men of the 20th century, and the creep is still polluting our planet. It reflects unfavourably on the USA that it tolerates this monster to walk free on its soil, while the USA preaches human rights, the rule of law, etc. to the rest of the world.
***** Yes, something went wrong with Hitche's mind towards the end. Maybe it was the chemo therapy. I still say I'll miss him and his incisive analyses of the issues he chose to tackle.
+Russ Tul No, he didn't lose his mind, liberals just have the illusion that the Iraq War is a repeat of the Vietnam War. In Iraq, the biggest mistake we made was helping the Iraqi government in the first place which is what George HW and Clinton did. After the Baath party was removed and Saddam Hussein given a public trial, the U.S. government allowed free elections in Iraq for the first time in decades and even the Iraqi Communist Party was allowed to participate. Of course I agree that the administration should be held accountable for lying about there being WMD's in Iraq or that Al Qaeda was hiding in Iraq, but they would be correct to say that Saddam at least tried to get a WMD and that there were some terrorist organizations being protected by Saddam in previous years. Saddam also gassed his own people and the Kurds.
Agreed, that Punk is one of the most horrible creatures to have walked the face of the Earth.
Sadly, I think the creep will be around till he is well over 100 years old.
Look at the other horrendous swine, David Rockefeller.
Comrade Danny Yea, speaking about Saddam trying to get WMD, I remember as a kid, I tried to derail a train by putting a banana peel on the track. Should I have been hanged for that too? (I mean, trying to do sth is not the same as doing it, don't u think?)
+Russ Tul I have tried to follow Christoper through all his trials and didn't see his intellect or power diminish even to the end. From where does your opinion come.
Hitchens shuffled off this mortal coil so young and the war criminal, Kissinger, is still alive! There is no justice in this world.
Christopher Hitchens is greatly missed.
Yes he is. I can't think of another intellect like him with the balls he had to speak the truth.
He so is.
The evil old bastard finally dropped.
Christopher Hitchens is sorely missed. We need his like so much.
Christopher is indeed sorely missed. I had a difficult time watching those YourTube videos in which he was debating others and knowing that he was just about to die from the cancer that he fought in those last years of his life.
It behooves every thinking person to individually dedicate him/her self to logic and honesty. Hitchens was a good guide, but we would be remiss in our duties, to not continue the journey, even without him.
I'm against the death penalty, but it's very tempting to support one for Killinger...
He loves torture too. I like to challange that...
Extrapate him to Myanmar
agreed
People act as if they themselves weren't handed such a sentence.
I am not a liberal. I am not an atheist. But we need this man today.
I am an atheist- more conservative and libertarian- lol- what a combination. And yes , I agree w you - we do need him more today - than ever
Liberals usually don’t imbibe liberal values anyways. Conservative do sometimes.
@@RojaJanemanYIPs. Young, illiberal progressives.
Hitchens was a conservative Atheist.
Wish we don’t keep label ourselves.
why did he get to live to 90 something. and hitch dies at 63 ?
Because Hitch was drinking whiskey like a fish and smoking a pack of cigarettes a day? It doesn’t take a genius to figure out
because there is no God and individual human lifespans are random.
Because only the good die young, if you take stock in that phrase
@@moriyokiri3229 kinda wanted to find an escape from this insane mental rehab called "normal" life, and psychopaths live longer because it is their waters, psychotic system that they have created for themselves.
Sad thing is Kissinger is under a month away from his 100th birthday as I write this.
Mr Hichens, we all wish you was here to talk openly and honestly on the state of this world we are currently living in. 6/12/23.
Yes it would be comforting for us, but would probably gall the hell out of him - you'd have to be nuts to want to be here right now. I think we're all thinking a lot more for ourselves these days, because of thinkers like Hitchens. But we do miss him.
Long, long live the memory and legacy of Christopher Hitchens
2:50 The Single Greatest Unpunished Unindicted Criminal On The Global Stage... exactly
When Kissinger died this week, the world got just a little less evil.
Ya, no. This is murica this is capitalism this is never worse than right now! Don't be fooled.
The world never gets a little less evil.
He forgot to take klaus and soros with him! Road trip to hell.
Kissinger has avoided punitive justice....but still... he rightfully suffers from the light of the public knowledge... He actually knows, that we, the people know, he was a very awful human being of the most unethical , criminal behaviour......He has no ability to hide from that...It is there for him for as long as he lives, and is his legacy.
hes crab meat atm :D
It's so addicting to hear him spit facts. Dude definitely had a way with words. The British accent doesnt hurt either 😆.
Well, you'd best head over to his AI channel on CZcams. I have, as a pathetic kleenex for my missing of his mind.
Christopher Hitchens displays in-depth knowledge of the reality of Kissinger, Nixon, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia - well worth a listen to this.. Especially in light of Kissinger STILL doing what he has always been paid to do: - Spin.
I'm catching up on Hitchens after my son gave me one of his books.
Christopher Hitches was a legend
Henry Kissinger is coming to norway the 31. okt. 2016 today.
Lets have him arrested!
Listening to Hitchens goes well with a beautiful crisp Fall day...
@"heavens" gate, especially on Sundays.
We don't learn! It's all being done over and over again!
After this old crone dies, I don't see his legacy in a decade or so from now being a sunny one.
+William Fenton They will erect statues to him in the USA and name university wings after him. The old vampire is a true psychopath.
William you need to read what the North Vietnamese said: they were playing for time. They were not agreeing to peace in 1968!!! Why should they!! They were winning.
@@65TossTrap ---- Kissinger was in the background encouraging S Vietnam to move the goal post, when N Vietnam agreed to their demands.
HK was an aid to LBJ. When he realized HHH was not going to win the presidential race, he snaked his way to Nixon and was helping Nixon to win.
Until after the election no one saw Kissinger with Nixon. I have often wondered what LBJ had to say when he realized HK had betrayed him while working for him.
Everyone should view this to understand who we "are" and who we should be..We were fortunate to have Christopher Hitchens in our lifetime. There a many CZcams Videos. If there is one book of knowledge worth learning it is Christoper Hitchens.
+William Wayne Hammond LMAO!!!! Wow, so MANY comedians on this thread! I will have to come here more for laughs!!! Dude, when I look at your face, it is easy to understand that you don't believe in God. However, may I remind you that God does have a sense of humor, too. Any question about this, go look in a mirror!! LMAO!!!!
Philip Parker it makes no sense to make fun of people when you dont agree, simply make a intelligent argument or stop embarrassing us that believe in god with a 2nd grades attitude.
How unfair it is that Hitch barely got past 60 while that morbid genocidal monster lived to see a 100, while spreading harm pretty much till the very end. Yeah, the world is upside down.
Christopher a Man amongst Men. I never met him in person. You are continually missed
You never met him and I am continually missed. Got it.
If it’s any consolation, Hitchens once said in an interview that Kissinger read his book and it really pissed him off. So he knew exactly how much of a scumbag we all thought he was.
What a great video. I've not read up or watched nearly enough on this subject, but with Stephen Colbert having such a hard on for Henry Kissinger, I feel compelled to learn more.
Wow

The myth that Kissinger and/or the CIA toppled Allende has been repeated so many times that it's widely accepted as a "fact," despite the lack of evidence. Those who make this false claim never offer any specific details about how the CIA or Kissinger supposedly brought down Allende -- because there are no facts and no details, just an oft-repeated myth.

This is the book l recommended the second l heard Kissinger croaked.
Ah Hitch! Would that YOU lived to 100.
I’m sorry Hitch isn’t here to update this book. Kissinger is the most evil person of modern times. Fortunately he is currently spinning in eternity, roasting all over
"I met a murderer on the way, he had a face like a cassowary." That's a fuckin' bar.
The crimes of Kissinger were many. A shame he still holds so much power in politics even today. Might be the reason why him and his goons haven't been put on trial.
His only crime is being realistic in a cruel world yes he has made mistakes in policy but overall he's a brilliant man for his country.

If you a liberal don't complain about lose of life if you support abortion and will do nothing to stop ISIS.
We live in a cruel world which has no room for idealism, I would rather support a right wing dictator then support a communist government given the threat communism is.
Joseph R Me no I know that nasty things must be done in this world.
***** The reality is the vast majority of abortions are done because the mother doesn't want the inconvenience of a child and have you ever heard of adoption agencies?
If everyone wants to stop ISIS then why is so little being done to stop them? Obama can go to congress and ask for the authority to attack them and he would get it.
I agree idealism doesn't work which is why I'm an admirer for lack of a better work of Kissinger.

Ladies and gentlemen i give you Hillary Rodham Clinton's personal political advisor..
Hitch was an extremely erudite and eloquent political commentator and, as such, should be respected. He read up on a lot of disparate documents which many commentators here on this site have not done. These comments are based on emotional kick-ass reactions. I have lived in Chile and know from firsthand experience. Have you?

You personally then would be glad to know Hitchens was kinda like Kissinger in many ways. Hitchens was very right-wing on colonialism and foreign policies of warmongering. Take away their beliefs about religion, and they become two peas in a pod.

Well, we can agree to disagree then. But all I'm saying is that you are more like Hitchens and Hitchens is more like Kissinger than people want to realize.
DimebagVision you're a true visionless Idiot
DimebagVision oh what a sick freak you are ! not lmao !
Because Hitch strove to become a man who recognized imperturbable value and Kissinger recognized only greed, ignorance, stupidity and things, frankly, bathed in unapologetic, sociopathic volatile vileness. It’s up to us to become our own unique keeper of the flame. The ironic, the weird part is - we have to do it together. ❤
The loss of Hitchens was a blow to all free thinkers.
Funny how Hitchens forgot all about Kissinger when he jumped on the War in Iraq bandwagon which came right out of the Kissinger playbook.
None of us are immune to being deceived by others. Even Hitchens. Smart and eloquent as he was, he was a man.
Hitchens was for the Iraq based on his ideology that Saddam was a monster and needed to br eliminated. He sadly ignored the other reasons the US Government had in that war.
@@mihaimoldocouple that with his palpable distain for Islam in particular, for which he said was the biggest threat to democracy globally, his position on the war seems more nuanced than “war good” in this case.

Kissinger: American Monster
HK is finally gone and justly not ever forgotten - in part thanks to Mr. Hitchens' work.
Long live Christopher Hitchens.
It's a shame Christopher isn't here with us to enjoy a world without Kissinger. The damage is done though, and what he did will outlast all of us.
That swine should have been tried as a war criminal fifty years ago and locked up in a dark hole.
Hitch was more upset that Kissinger would outlive him than he was about having terminal cancer.
Where do you draw such an answer, coward? We are eager to hear it...
What a rotten thing to say. If the world was led by peaple like Christopher Hitchens instead of folks like Nixon and Kissingger I believe it would be a much better place.
Imagine what Kissinger was advising TRUMP at the oval office ? This guy just does not go away.
In that case I think we were kinda saved by Trump's ego and unwillingness to listen to anyone besides Sean Hannity and Ivanka on any subject. Kissinger talking probably just sounded like low pitched background noise to Trump.
A 5 year old could have advised Trump, but probably just about candy
Well is is away now. Thank the lord. Unfortunately not soon enough.
Thanks to CZcams's Christopher Hitchens discussing the crimes of Henry Kissinger in the video, it confirms my discontent with American policies over the years. I find it disheartening, considering it one of the most disconcerting countries.
I've declined opportunities to visit the USA or even take a transit flight through there. Even with family members residing there, I've chosen not to go. What's most significant about Mr. Hitchens' audio presentation is that it reinforces my decision to disconnect entirely from the media. I'm weary of continually hearing about the detrimental impact America has had on humanity without any repercussions or accountability.
Moreover, the disregard for addressing the unanswered questions surrounding the events of 9/11 is deeply unsettling. The collapse of Tower 7 at 5:35 pm, without being hit by a plane, and its free fall raises serious concerns. It's baffling how such critical aspects have been ignored, raising questions about the extent of our blindness or naivety as a society.
CZcams’s Christopher Hitchens? What does that even mean? Do some actual research, maybe even in a real, live, library.
watch the video and perhaps you can get some basic education out of it. simple shit, open your eyes, get the wax out of your ears@@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied
Oh, libraries? Cute. Let's just say the internet's got more data than you can shake a book at. Think of libraries like a tiny pond and the internet like an ocean on steroids. Libraries are like a droplet in the data ocean of the internet. If the internet were a library, the librarian would need a few billion more shelves to keep up.@@fowchiiiliedpuppiesdied
As a born again Christian I love Hitch because of his amazing mind and passion.
+kurt moss Hitch would be the first to tell that you are born ok the first time but have been convinced by indoctrination and peer pressure that the opposite is true.
"Don’t think of that as a gift. Think of it as a poisoned chalice. Push it aside however tempting it is. Take the risk of thinking for yourself. Much more happiness, truth, beauty and wisdom will come to you that way.” - CH
I never bought religion. There is an "experience" in life that none of us can explain. That's my "higher power". Even Hitch spoke of the Transcendent. It's whatever gets you through and allowing your fellow human beings the same room. There are many Christians who are very insightful and free thinking. At a certain point what we think we know takes us in a loop. I had to escape that in order to get sober and stop taking life so damn serious.
kurt moss
"As a born again Christian" Yeah pal, youve bought into it alright.
You cant explain your experience therefore god? Really? Thats the old and tired argumnet from ignorance. Let me clue you in a little. Its ok to say I dont know. Its NOT ok to say I dont know there fore it mustve been gawd. Put away your divisive, superstitous, dogmatic nonsense and grow up. Go look through a large telescope. Or an even easier one.

How I wish Mr. Hitchens would have been alive today. He'd be well treated to a glass of whisky or two.
Christopher was funny too!
I am a constitutional consetvative, almost William F. Buckly level on the Right.
I also adore this Hitch person...almost man-crush level.
He forces me to consider that the Left has great ideas, worthy of implementation even.
Why? Because he strong man's the position so well, using logic and historical fact.
In short, he speaks the language of the conservative.
Speak my language and I'll listen.
The old criminal lived to 100, this is very timely and reminds us what a terrible and flawed human being HK was. Definitely one for hell if you believe in that sort of thing. Hitch's brother Peter the highly intelligent sounding bigot goes on and on, making up stats, as he goes along
This speech, among others that he made, is the precise reason he was never accepted by the filth he tried to ingratiate himself with. A man who turns to the degree that he did can never ever be welcomed into the fold of the other side, other than to be used and abandoned like a piece of garbage.
when is this from?
Listen to Kay Griggs talk about Henry and the "Cherry Marines" in Cambodia.
even though Hitchens was atheist, he won't go to hell. He was a decent, truth loving man.
Since Hell does not exist he certainly hasn't😀.
If Hell did exist according to Christianity he would have been sent there because of his lack of belief in God. Goodness has nothing to do with it in Christianity...you have to believe in and follow the son of God.

Good call. The world was perfect before HK came along.
Horror has a face, and you must make a friend of Horror, unless it happens to be the face of Kissingerr.
What about that French Policeman who stopped him in Paris and told him a Judge wants to talk to him in Court about the murder of three Chilean Policemen, It`s believed they were killed by the murderers of the President on their way out of the Country right ?
Listening to this makes Hitchens support of the iraq war even more infuriating. He was happy to wax liberal in arpil 2001 about justice and international law, but a couple years later he was all on board with bush's bombings - a crime equal to those he talks so emotively about here.
It certainly would be something to hear his thoughts in retrospect on it were he alive today, especially with regard to the massive arms of state surveillance that proliferated through the Obama administration.
Why does killer Kissinger live to 101 and Christopher dies in his 60’s? Right & Fair doesn’t exist. Bob.

But why did they extend the Vietnam war for 4 years and extend it secretly to other countries... what was the reason from a saving face point of view

@@FactCheckerGuy but why did the USA do that
Henry Kissinger is now dead.
He fails, purposefully I believe, to discuss the true affect Cold War fears had on these men. They did believe in the Dominoe Theory, and felt combating the Soviets was a necessity, regardless of methodology.
