CMNightRider Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Isnt it nice that in the US people can do things like protest without fear of being taken away to a reeducation camp? The last time I checked, people living in the free world don't have to be concerned about "being taken away to reeducation camps." Another American hater I presume?

And when those same inalienable rights cross the line and step on your individual inalienable rights, what should happen? This was a Congressional hearing.

And the world hasn't exploded. Maybe this political theatre is the Pink group's interpretation of feeding the tree of liberty some blood of patriots? We won't agree about where the line is drawn I expect. Clearly they are seeking maximum impact by invading the august halls and defying the traditions of politeness. I encourage them to feed that tree more symbolic blood. Edited January 30, 2015 by Tep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why stop with them? The Middle East crisis actually began in 1785 when Dey Muhammad of Algiers declared war on the United States and captured several American ships. In 1801 the US Navy and Marines won reprieve from the pirates. You could effectively blame the US Marines with their encroachment in 1801 for all the present day problems. Maybe you could even find a cartoon from that period of time which would further enrage the perpetually enraged. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can point your finger at just about any place and time in history and find a tyrant who created long lasting havoc but, other than for educational purposes, it would be a futile gesture. However if we continue to fete our contemporary villains as anything other than the conptemptible people they are, we are declaring ourselves as no better. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby nz Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 McCain, the great war hero who repeatedly bombed largely defenceless North Vietnamese people in an illegal and grossly criminal war? If anybody is scum in this matter, it is a murderous US Navy pilot called McCain. Not to mention the carpet bombing of Laos and Cambodia. On Kissinger's advice. Two nations not even at war with the US. To this day if you go to the East of Lao and Cambodia you will see UN bomb disposal teams still at work cleaning the remains from all these years back.

Maybe you could even find a cartoon from that period of time which would further enrage the perpetually enraged. You identify the US's first engagement with the middle east but I am not sure the current situation can be directly linked back that far. I believe the current crisis is post-colonial and was masked by the Cold War and emerges now in this post Cold war era. Kissinger was a Cold War Warrior and in that context was a success. However, I believe he was either a product of or architect of a US Foreign Policy driven by what Eisenhower described as the military industrial complex and an expansionary view of US interests. He has now passed to become an historical figure, even though he is still alive. At least it appears that he is still alive. I don't believe in prosecuting historical figures for historical actions whose time has passed. A charge of war crimes or something similar needs to be exact, defined and supported by evidence sufficient for something like the International Criminal Court. I may not agree with his policies or actions but think that he acted to defend the US interest in the geopolitical context of his time. I do not support the continuation of US foreign policy aligned to his school of thought. I believe it exacerbates the current middle eastern 'islamic' related tensions i.e. no resolution of the Israel Palestine issue, enabling Iran to emerge as a regional power through the Iraq War and the US acquiescence of middle eastern strong man government models etc. There should be enough in what I have written to rile up the Cold Warriors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the choice is either between a murderous terrorist threat or a government willing to destabilise sovereign countries and persecute illegal wars for ideological reasons?

He was a f*&k up in Vietnam, destroyed a few planes being reckless, messed up and got shot down and then treated like a hero Because he was his father's son.

Popular Post Loptr Posted January 30, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2015 If you lookup satan in the dictionary, you will find a photo of Henry Kissinger... Here are a few quotes for those of you defending this nobel peace prize winner that is personally responsible for millions of deaths of innocent civilians... Think about that statement for a minute... “I don't see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its people. The issues are much too important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves.” - Henry Kissinger “The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer.”- Henry Kissinger "Depopulation should be the highest priority of foreign policy towards the third world" - Henry Kissinger "Who controls the food supply controls the people; who controls energy can control entire continents; who controls the money can control the world" - Henry Kissinger "It's not a matter of what is true that counts but a matter of what is perceived to be true" - Henry Kissinger "Military men are dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns for foreign policy" - Henry Kissinger I could go on for days on this guy, but I can only hope that those of you defending this piece-of-work would spend as much time researching him as you do defending him... Ignorance is a choice... Kissinger in the CFR and Brzezinski in the Tri-Lateral Commission of the two primary architects of US domestic and foreign policy over the last 50 years... Do you think the world is a better place for it? 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People died in France supposedly as martyrs to the defense of freedom of speech ( in the form of juvenile cartoons), but when the expression of views don't align with those of the right wing nutters and their senile war mongering leader, those people are scum. I'm sure McCain, who had made a career out of marrying a wealthy wife and trading on his prisoner of war status for personal profit, has claimed he fought for the preservation of freedom in the US ... but apparently only if those freedoms are used to support his constipated world-view. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Suradit69 Posted January 30, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted January 30, 2015 Kissinger should have been charged with crimes against humanity, what, 40 years ago? The 2 faced US justice system rears its ugly head, again. But that would have set a precedent that would put former president Cheney and his puppet George in the firing line too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDGRUEN Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Disregarding the heated arguments of Kissinger and of Senator McCain's statements related in this thread - for which I take no position... Both men in their much younger years had talents and accomplishments to offer the world... BUT in the past 7 to 10 years both have been mentally slipping... Kissinger as of late is hardly understandable in his presentation... a bit of mumbling platitudes and puts forth something akin to indecipherable world political philosophy .... McCain on the other hand - despite his service to the U,S. Military and the USA has become an embarrassment ... McCain should have retired years ago ... in my studied opinion, John McCain is suffering senile dementia and that condition is far more than just memory loss ... it also entails cognitive impairment - the ability to think straight ... McCain has become an erratic fool... stumbling about from Syria to D.C. making nonsensical and outlandish statements.. John McCain should retire very quickly as he will enter an era of total inability to control himself - as the disorder progresses... The only reason his aides do not reign him in is their selfish want to retain their cushy jobs - good salaries and benefits... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the guy cursing protestors that blame Kissinger himself for many of the atrocities of that war? I wonder what it's like to sell your soul. Protesters shaking metal handcuffs inches from the head of 91 year old Henry Kissinger concerned me. Where were the capital police?
