My father, uncle and every family member who were military veterans all hated Kissinger. I remember my father telling me that Kissinger belonged in the deepest, darkest caverns of Guantanamo Bay.
@@robertdore9592 serving your country has nothing to do with Kissinger being a frigging demon so what is your point. Most people serve because they love America and all these diabolical crap isn't really advertised. But people are waking up to the delusional PsyOp we've been under.
As a Cambodian American from the so called Generation 1.5, I watch this with teary eyes thinking about the injustice for my parents who lost over 50% of their family members in the late 70s. Thank you Mr Turse and Professor Grandin for being the voice for how we Cambodians are still feeling over 4 decades later.
1996, I visited the school, in Phnom Penh, that was used as torture prison. The feeling of utter helplessness and abandonment was overwhelming. This pain was and is still past on to future generations. As a former German, I know that the capacity for evil acts is not owned by one Nation only, but is part of who we can decide to be. Those who oppose it, often pay a high price. We are facing similar times, on a global scale. It's time to resist the war mongers and those who pretend to act in the 'Public's Interest!' Greetings from Canada, the land of the emergency act, to quell a peaceful protest, by truckers and their citizen supporters.
@@augenbutter The Tuol Sleng Museum or S-21 Museum used to be a school but was converted into the S-21 torture prison. One of the most horrendous torture places in history. Out of the thousands who were sent there, I believe only a handful of people made it out alive. I visited Cambodia with my parents a few years ago and they refused to go to the museum with me. I didn't understand this until I saw the S-21 documentary. How could I have asked them to visit such a place?
@@augenbutter Thank you for your comments, they are so on point. I am 72 years old and a "Black* man. I am almost numb to the atrocities that continue to happen on this planet. What I see as our saving grace's is our ability to focus our energy on the good things that are happening on the planet and in the universe whatever they may be. Love n Peace. p.s what would happen if we focused exclusively on the good stuff, like love and positive things?
As someone who has had the privilege to have gone to Cambodia and shared time with its beautiful humble people and witnessed the carnage and damage, I want to say thank you to all who had anything to do with putting this together...
As someone who currently lives in Cambodia, I am astounded at the damage caused to the country by foreign powers, primarily the USA, and how little accountability their governments have taken in the years since. It's shameful.
Take heart.... Judgment day isn't far away. Righteous judgment is coming to the USA/Babylon. And to the other countries and peoples of Earth. *"To hate us to murder, and no murderer shall enter the Kingdom."* Many want to see the judgment of others not realizing that GOD judges the heart. *There are many ways besides guns to murder. Hate, greed, lust, jealousy, hypocrisy, and envy being chief among them.* It's not just countries that need to repent....🍃🙏🏾 💔 🙏🏾🍃
Thank the former King of Cambodia who refused to stop the Viet Cong from circling American troops in Vietnam. The U.S. bombed the Ho Chi Minh trail and RIGHTY SO.
I agree . I read many books before my recent trip to Cambodia . PTSD still rules many lives . Thousandx oc land mines . John Pilger wrote about this ..Thank you Nick and your wife and Amy of course .
Thank you for taking the time to do this piece on Kissinger’s war crimes in Cambodia. I was born in a concentration camp in during the Pol Pot regime. My mom lost her father and brother, and over 2 million Cambodians lost their lives. Sharing this on Memorial Day as my family remember our loved ones and those innocents who perished during that horrific time. There are stories untold and histories rewritten. So many in my own community prefer to forget the past, but I want to remember. I never want to forget. ❤️🇰🇭🙏
I'm glad to hear you say that. My wife is also a Cambodian Gynecide survivor and I've always encouraged her to be proud of her birth nation and her ability to survive the Khmer Rouge.
Noam Chomsky was right saying “the United States owes Cambodia not only an apology but massive reparations for the B-52 bombing campaign called Operation Menu that killed up to a million people” and “Henry Kissinger would certainly be brought to trial for his role in the bombing, if the world were governed by justice, not forces.
The Khmer Rouge was killing people in massive numbers. The US was not supposed to be in Cambodia but we were. I know an army ranger who was dropped into the country and was captured by the KR. He was lined up in front of a firing squad 3 times and 3 times he pissed his pants. Each time they used blanks. Later the US sent in troops to get them out and at one point the enemy pointed a pistol at him and it misfired. Later after his service he related this story to me. He was not right after that trama but who could blame him. So I agree Kissinger was a no good prick but the whole story is not being told. We were in Cambodia on the ground even though the US denies it.
@@WaltEagles24 Vietnam As well were imposter and killed innocents Cambodian people . Cambodia alone the death toll should have been limited but in all at once , Pol Pot, China Communism the backbone , Viet Kong Communism, Thailand that recluse Cambodian refugees to walk back to Phnom ( Montain ) Danregn were fields of landmines are hidden that killed thousands of Cambodian refugees .

Revered? I know of no liberal that likes him, and most liberals "in-the-know" historically hate him. I'm sure most people have never heard of him, and that his in-group uplifts him as "one-of-our-famous" and want his money trickles and access to power.
@@yaoliang1580 which present criminal leader are you talking about? Which one of the many are directly responsible for literally MILLIONS of deaths? Be specific.
Invasions are usually wrong and illegal, but Vietnam in 1979 invaded Cambodia to stop Pol Pot's genocide. Few objected, but the US subsequently fought for Pol Pot to have a seat at the UN! Search "R2P: Responsibility to Protect" as a legal defense for Vietnam, and in February, 2022, for Russia to prevent the "ethnic cleansing" of Donbas. The UN recognizes the right of people to vote and secede from one country and join another, or be independent. Just as the corporate media brainwashed the American people about Indochina, they have done the same with Ukraine and Russia.
I have asked my father who is now 72 years old to write his memoir about the bombing. He used to tell how he and his friends and villagers ran for their lives while their village in Takeo province was bombing. It was terrifying. Also, I heard that farmers need to harvest their rice at nighttime to avoid the bombing at daytime. It resonates with me about the phrase he uses 'shot at everything that moves'. They were just harvesting rice. To eat. Just to eat and be able to live.
I can't even begin to understand the terror he had to endure to survive. America is guilty for its own genocide. And it doesn't seem to have a end to this.
Who is surprised about Kissinger’s participation in the “killing fields.” The people have never forgotten they are traumatized and the war is ongoing. How rich, Henry is still shamelessly arrogant and angry. He is no statesman.🤬
A statesman in the modern age is effective insofar as he creates the vernacular with which the debate, within the bounds of acceptable opinion, is prosecuted. Kissinger is perhaps the most effective modern statesman. He also happens to be among those most evil.
No wonder my dad was not the same man when he came home from the Vietnam . Unfortunately my dad took his own life . The nightmares were horrific . He just couldn’t live life anymore. And the mental health help was not there. Miss you love you dad.
he chose to be a thug. i have no empathy for his kind. but at least he had a shred of humanity left, in the form of a conscience. i have never murdered anyone. my conscience is clean.
@@sabin97 not everyone got a college deferment, or had a doctor who could diagnose bone spurs. This war was fought by the poor and working class. Your elitism is deplorable.
@@sabin97 you're a piece of trash with that remark! Lots of people were not given a choice and this way was particularly brutal. They would skin people alive for our soldiers to find as a warning. My dad was there as well. He was not given a choice. He lost good friends.
This shows how twisted our world has become when people like Kissinger is treated like royalty while people who committed far less crimes are treated like shit.
For Kissinger and his supporters, all non-Jews are not really humans. The same mindset gave birth to supremacist PNAC and the genocidal Wolfowitz Doctrine of full-spectrum dominance. The wars of aggression in the Middle East (millions of human beings of all ages were murdered) and the ongoing war against Russians by using ethnic Ukrainians as cannon fodder have the same origin -- the supremacist mindset encouraging looting and mass slaughter.
Its pefectly appropriate that they be 'treated like royalty'.. .. given that roya£ty emerged from the f€Uda£ war-cults that robbed and pi££aged their paths to their bloody wargames of thrones.
I'm most shocked that this monster continues to be feted and admired. Never understood why he has never been held accountable for his actions. He's living proof that some people not only get away with murder, they thrive. Thank you for this.
Relax, Henry Kissinger is a defender of the democracy and the free world. You should thank him for helping South Vietnam to defend the invasion from North Vietnam and from evil communism.
It’s because of the global super-mega rich that we the people suffer. Greed & lust for power knows no bounds. More than enough is never enough for the global mega-rich & powerful. They want to rule the world & own everything & for us to be their slaves & own nothing. How does that work?
It's infuriating to me that this guy, who has committed so many atrocities, have managed to live a long and prosperous life. I'll be more beside myself knowing all the usual suspects who will glorify him as a hero upon his death; from The NYT to the president and every corporate outlet. We'll be bombarded with propaganda of how great he was.
True. But this household considers what has been done to Ukraine is equally inexcusable, hence in our eyes Biden's name also belongs on the long list of war mongers.
Well, when your media, Fed Reserve, stock markets, banking, and Hollywood are owned by people with direct lineage to Israelis, meaning they are of the SAME group wearing yamakahs and visiting the wailing wall for vacations. Do you EXPECT them to do anything OTHER than celebrate the monsters they PLACED in our faces all these years????
I have a huge place in my heart for Cambodia having lived there for a decade or more. The effects of the Menu bombings and their aftermath still afflict Cambodia and its citizens. Kissinger should have been jailed long ago for this atrocity.
The oligarchy families of the military industrial complex including media families are diverting our attention not to hate them instead. Kissinger might be very bad but he was never the boss. Who sold war bonds in WW2? Who financed, supplied, constructed, staffed, advised, own the patents, and controlled the Manhattan Project? Who were manufacturing bombers and bombs for the Vietnam War? Who owned all the necessary raw materials and factories for war productions? Who should be past tense and who are present?
Try George Bush/Obama: they killed many more in their 20-year war to feed the military industrial complex than Nixon/Kissinger did during their 10-year war to feed the military industrial complex.
Sure. OK People hate Kissinger because his masterful brilliance of real politik. Kissinger is the type of tool you employ reluctantly, like a white phosphorous artillery shell or a fuel-air bomb. You use it because you absolutely have to achieve a goal but you know that in achieving it many innocents will be hurt. Every country has men like Kissinger, as their an absolute necessity. All one has to do is look into the heart of mankind over the centuries empires have risen and fallen the only thing that remains unchanged is humanity.
@@MsElke11 of course he passed his evil tactics to Klaus Schwab…his trainee for life. Beware of everything the WEF-UN coalition try to do…abolishing both organizations would be a blessing
Bravo! Thank you, Mr. Turse, for serving both as a documenter of these atrocities performed by American servicemembers, and for your investigation pointing to Henry Kissinger as the primary responsible party. For how will we ever change if we remain unaware of the ways that we have allowed evil to be perpetrated through the might of our nation.
Why is Kissinger still involved in any of our dealings? He was never brought to punishment for His War Crimes. I think, if he is still alive, he should be arrested and set before a court for his war crimes. This is a very BAD leader, and NO ONE HELD HIM TO ACCOUNTABILITY WHY? Who blocked them from accountability? They too should be charged and held accountable.
This world is full of criminals like him and the one who order him to do it. You can see this because you live en the USA. BUT people who live in Rusia, China, North Corea, Cuba, Venezuela and Nicaragua you can even mention the name of the criminals in power and you will be in jail being tortured. So at least, in the USA we can said something eventhough nothing happens to him.
Such insight here... as a Brit journalist in London, I knew so little of this. I am horrified by the shameful revelations in this discussion. Well done for shining a light on this, and bravo Nick Turse for pursuing this story on the ground with Cambodian survivors. Kissenger was without doubt a war criminal and arch manipulator, who helped develop and normalise a dark aspect to US foreign policy.
As a Cambodian American I remembered my mom telling me about the plane dropping bombs and they were in the rice fields. They had to run for covers. My mom and dad both had PTSD from the war. Sadly, both of them passed away in 2004 and 2005.
I lived and worked in Cambodia for a few years; beautiful country, lovely people, but so much just below the surface. Everyone over a certain age has a story of hardship.
My most profound sympathies for your parents and your loss. I know it makes no difference now to anyone, but those among us who saw HK as an evil demon all along, could do nothing but observe.
I used to watch this channel every now and then But I question what I'm hearing after their coverage of The Kyle Rittenhouse case. I'm Saddened That is hard to find any outlet That cares more about their politics than facts.
Would you surprised if i tell you Kissinger is still invited by European leaders to this day? And they talk about arresting South American and African Presidents the next day 😂
funny how a guy who is already known as a war criminal, kinda redeems himself by speaking out against arming Ukraine, SUDDENLY has NEW info come out from 50 years ago that only reinforce what we already knew. this is so contrived and seems to only be about trying to discredit someone that is NOW speaking out against war. AMY GOODMAN IS NOTHING BUT A SEMI-POLISHED TURD AS IS HER JOKE OF A NEWS CHANNEL, democracy now!
During the 2016 election seeing Hillary Clinton looking up at Henry Kissinger with glowing admiration seriously disgusted me. Thank you Bernie for saying it for me since I haven't been able to speak for over a decade. I have to admit Bernie is more diplomatic than I am. When it comes to people like Kissinger I could get really ugly.
Imagine if the communists had prevailed, they had plans to kill millions of americans who would not go along with the communist doctrine within the US if they came to power.
I totally agreed with you about this ugliness/oldest/corrupt/dirtiest-“dr” Kissinger and luckily Hillary have lost a presidency, if she wins then who knows the US is in the hands of the CCP by now. And also, Kissinger have tried “connect the dot” from Trumps to China but unsuccessful. In last 48 years the names Henry Kissinger often appear in my minds any time that April 30 returned ( the South Vietnam lost to freaking North Vietnamese Communist in April 30, 1975) because Kissinger was a architect of the deal that sold Vietnam to China. Too bad that Obama, Clinton, Hillary and Biden are all looking up to Kissinger who’s just the old men without my respect. Thanks Leealex.
That's why she's a terrible person. Did you not hear her CACKLE while bragging about Qaddafi's torture and assasination? She might even be worse than her husband.
Bernie is a useful fool for the Dems ......so they can say...."See , we are a true democracy where even an extreme leftist like Sanders can speak his mind"........"never mind we will never ever allow this commie to question the Pentagon".....To whom the two allowed political parties have to bow. Which usually is the privilege of one party states.
Of course Kissinger would think it shameful to throw around the term "war criminal." Criminals don't typically like to be called what they are, especially not when they believe that it's good and just for them to do it. Kissinger is one of those.
i agree. they are still occupying palestine......for almost 80 consecutive years..... and you get called an "antisemite" if you denounce their atrocities.
Evil people seem to live longer, maybe because they sold their souls. I predict very long lives for Hillary Clinton, George Soros, Bill Gates, Barack Obama, Samantha Power, Victoria Nuland, Anthony Fauci, George W Bush...
Wow! They don’t teach you this stuff in school! Thank you, Democracy Now for teaching us. I learned something today. I love my country but this is appalling! Kissinger must stand before a court and answer WHY before he dies.
Marie, what makes Kissinger any different from the other warcriminals reigning over us with ubiquity? Why do you love your country? Now, I'm just a simple country boy from Kentucky, but when I see a corporate-totalitarian surveillance state, founded on genocide, imperial from its inception, and actively perpetuating a global order which will ensure the extinction of my species... that tends to evoke revolutionary anger in me, not pride or love of nation. I think we do the power-elite a favor when we begin our criticism of their regime with "I love my country, but"
35 years ago, my 14 year old son told me , "they don't teach us the truth in school, mom." I said, "I know" Recently, my 8 year old granddaughter said to my son, "They don't teach us the truth in school, Dad,"
..he would say he is a descendant of Abraham ..and highly blessed over the nations ..to subdue ..force them to his will and service ..to kill with no restraint ..to treat lesser humans as cattle beast and vermin to be wiped out [The Protocols of Zion]
'Only the good die young' has never been more true than in this particular scenario. He's been one of the architects of several of modern life's most toxic problems and has been responsible for the deaths of hundreds of thousands.
No no that's wrong, God can give a human a very long life, because He gave life to humanity, ,but there are two things in this case about high age. God maybe allowed the devil to keep him alive, hoping that he might regret his evil actions and turn to God, or the devil has free hands to keep him alive, and then when it pleases him to end his life and let him end as a lost soul, because God dont want evil people in His Heaven. I dont think these butchers believe in God, so they dont spend time on salvation, and that is the perfect possibility to grab this old man in his own time. We might think that hell are for the few, and Heaven for the many, but it is the upperset, many will enter hell, and few will enter Heaven, one can say that this old tyrant, have had a really long life to choose which way to go to be saved, but sadly I dont think he will ever repent.......

Kissinger is Jewish. So is Nuland and Blinken and the Kagan Neocons, Helen Sherman, Janet Yellen etc. They pushed this war against Russia. Jews in the Ukraine are less than 1% of the population. They control the media. And the Ukrainian Jews involved in the US proxy war against Russia as well, Presidents Poroshenko, Zelensky, Ukrainian Prime minister Ukraine Denys Shmyhal, Ukraine Defense minister, Oleksii Reznikov, and many in the fake parliament. Oligarchs of Ukraine are mostly Jewish. ihor Kolomoisky is Jewish as well. He sponsored Zelesnky the Comedian into power and he funded the Azov Nazi's. Sam Bankman Fried. FTX money laundering theft funneled money through the Ukraine back to the USA. George Soros is also Jewish. He does what he did and destabilized the Ukraine with the Orange revolutions. Iraq war was created by the same tribe. Zionist Neocons Jewish and Christian. Richard Perle, Madeliene Albright, William Kristol, Paul Wolfwowitz, Joseph Liberman, Elliot Cohen, Elliot Cohen, David From, Robert Kagan, And they always claim victimhood.
@@yaoliang1580 Well, while evil is institutionalized, it is plotted and carried out by people so spending 27 minutes reminding people of one who was exceptionally evil is worthwhile.

And now over the years I see that there has been a genocide constantly going on ever since the end of WW11 that really did not end they just went underground ! Poison in everything the food the water and the air that we are breathing ! And now the Medical Industry is aiding and abetting them !

You won't find a kinder more gentle and loving people then Cambodian's. I know having traveled much of the world, I came here as a tourist and was so taken back by how genuinely friendly and happy they are I applied for a retirement visa here and stayed. I am still loving every minute of it with many friends both local and expats from all over the world. America is and has been just the opposite and getting worse hence the reason I gladly call Cambodia home now.
I wonder if the algorithms stop the world _ ordinary peaceful people get to see these vlogs. I am saddened that I brought 3 children into this world and now they will be feed for these rascals.
Henry Kissinger was the face of what happened in Cambodia but he was acting as a US agent. Nothing he did was not under the direct authority of the US. If any entity should be on trial at the Hague it should be the US. Anything less would be allowing sovereign entities to escape responsibility for what they do. These behaviors, the atrocities will continue until the root cause is addressed. This doesn't mean that he has no fault but not addressing the US responsibility allows us to continue to commit these types of atrocities. That's what needs to be talked about.
The entire point of hierarchical structures, from governments to corporations, is for those at the top to avoid accountability for their actions. These people will never face the consequences of their crimes, the system is engineered entirely to protect and enrich them, not punish them.
I do believe he bought the allegiance of the US leadership at the time. Remember folks that America isn't a democratic republic but a corporation and its always up for sale to the highest bidder... "I like to kiss children's privates" kissinger is nothing more than a rich, Babylonian Talmud believing sack of pure shit... He literally believes that the "goy" gentiles or anyone who isn't what he deems acceptable to live is a slave. And deserves nothing but abuse... Don't believe me? Just look the bastard up and what he believes. All you have to do is read the Babylonian Talmud... There you'll find out why he is pure evil
Thank you Amy Truth Tellers, may they rise up and be heard. To many “never agains” to be ignored when the facts of the past are brought to light, and reoccurring attitudes are rising up particularly in our own country. True journalism is imperative Democracy Now holds the key 🔑
I was in my early 20's when this was happening. The bombing of Cambodia and then Kent State had a profound effect upon my worldview. I decided then that I would move to Costa Rica when I retired because they have no military. In 2014, I decided to travel to Cambodia just one time before I headed to Central America. I fell in love with the Cambodia people. I am in my seventh year living in Cambodia. I have a wife and two adult daughters now. My wife's homeland is very near the VN border. She was born in 1977...in the middle of the genocide. Her mother was a victim of the Khmer Rouge in 1978.
Cambodia is a beautiful country and its people are among the World's nicest. I so enjoyed visiting. Today's Cambodia is a world apart from its dark past.
You really dodged a bullet Bill, Costa Rica is not as it appears... dirty, crime ridden and unless you are a tourist, an unfriendly place that I got out of after 6 years of business there. Enjoy Cambodia, beautiful place.

Many like you do not pay attention now against mass killing in Ukraine, even you send more and more weapons, rise your voice, DO something, educate yourself and fight
Finally! I hope Kissinger learns about what has been revealed, so he is going to be remembered for what he really was. Thanks for the research. The world owes the truth to the victims.
Kissinger did not care then, and he does not care now. I am sure he and his circle of psychopaths laugh at these public revelations knowing they will never be held to account for these crimes against civilians. As Grandin pointed out, this is now the default foreign policy the US.
So they don't cause upheavals A lot of people are pissed off right now you can see it at the grocery store Either well unite against our real enemy ...or we destroy each other
Wait? The rich have no real issue with him, and the poor are not even aware. It is only "partisan/knowledgable liberals" that attack him and the "partisan/knowledgable neocons" would vehemently support him so the rich do not bother touching what is basically a "Non-issue"/"toxic-issue" to them (the suffering of foreign people at the hands of private and government US citizens) that they don't see how attacking/"international lawing" a powerful neocon would help them electorally.
Kissinger was also the architect of the coup d'erat in Chile, which resulted in the murders of thousands, including the political disappearance of at least 3,000 people, followed by 16 years of hell and suffering for the Chilean people. He then moved on to Uruguay and Argentina. Evil facing no consequences. If hell exists, I hope there is a special corner just for him.
None of these monsters throughout human history from the beginning of time will get away from the Great justice we will all face All these innocents throughout history will see eternal justice and be satisfied that justice was carried out
"sad that we don’t hear this in the main stream media. " strange, that, isn't it? Wonder who Kissinger represents... wonder who runs the media. How odd.

My uncle took me up into his B52, in the 1950's, when it was parked next to the hangar for a full servicing of its nuclear payload. The first thing I noticed was his eye patch hanging from the pilot controls. He explained that he would put it on before the start of the bombing run to protect one eye, to be able to continue his mission, after a flash that was expected to blind his unprotected eye. My uncle was a warrior willing to sacrifice his life to protect Freedom. He refused to commit "B 52" war crimes in the "Vietnam" war after he and his B52 were sent to Guam for that purpose. The evil in the US air force then tried to see he would be killed by pulling him out of his B52 and putting him, alone, in an unarmored, single engine, Cessna to fly forward air control for field artillery where 1/2 the pilots, so assigned, died. He survived and drove up from the Colorado Springs air base, as he was being mustered out, to visit me at school in Denver and tell me the details of what was going on, that forced him to take the stand he did , that forced him out of the air force. Peter was a Honorable True Warrior.
Greetings from Cambodia. I protested the war and illegal/immoral bombings perpetrated by this disgusting, evil man during my high school and college years in Indiana. I came to Southeast Asia 10 years ago as an apology for what was done here in the name of my country. I can assist students with English if they think that is something that will help them achieve their goals and support their families. I've heard the horrifying stories of what my country did here in Cambodia and Laos in the villages of my students. Unexploded ordinates dropped on the people here still take an average of one life a week or physically maim villagers nearly 50 years later--usually farmers working in the fields or children thinking the baseball-sized ordinates are toys. The US set the foundation for the mass murders by Khmer Rouge in re-purposed school buildings and temple grounds. I met an elderly man once in Phoenix when I was back in the US teaching for a few months. He was driving a sports car and returning from a game of pool with buddies at a bar. He smiled as he told me about his job loading US bombers in Thailand for the bombing raids over Cambodia and Laos. I'm glad to be back in Southeast Asia.
This is so sad and heartbreaking that one man's decision can destroy and unalived innocent people 's lives. Then that individual get upset about being called a war criminal.
Greg Grandin is so right when he said the unexploded "ordinances" (land mines) are still killing. This is also occurring in Vietnam. I visited a museum in Central Vietnam before the pandemic. I visited Peace Trees Vietnam with a group. I observed a group of ordinary citizens learning how to remove mines outside. People are still being wounded or killed by the land mines we left there. It was a gut punch to see this with my own eyes.
Stunningly repulsive and unjust. And it has only led to worse and worse and absolutely nothing will be done because these are the powerful. Thank you to these journalists bringing to light in detail what has been wrought and is ongoing. If they will never pay for their crimes maybe they will be shamed.
I absolutely agree. They are all war criminals. But it seems from this interview Kissinger started the change of the US security state to “preventative” war actions leading the way to the atrocities it has committed all of the world.
The oligarchy families of the military industrial complex including media families are diverting our attention not to hate them instead. Kissinger might be very bad but he was never the boss. Who sold war bonds in WW2? Who financed, supplied, constructed, staffed, advised, own the patents, and controlled the Manhattan Project? Who were manufacturing bombers and bombs for the Vietnam War? Who owned all the necessary raw materials and factories for war productions? Who should be past tense and who are present?

On this Memorial Day, I humbly pay tribute to the millions of Cambodians who lost their lives as the result of this man decision. I almost die from malnutrition during the regimes changes and political turmoil in the country. I was young and didn't comprehend what the hell was going on with massive of people evacuation. Now I know. There were young people and elders, the cripples and people who were severely ill got separated from family and left behind without food or water on the side of the road. During this period of time, I loss my youngest brother and later on my father perished under the ruthless regime. When I was young, I used to think the U.S. is the fine example for all other nations to look up to the U.S. The U.S. is a rich country driven by war machines paid by taxpayers; the working poor. Now a day. I think we need to evaluate ourselve. Because of the past experienced this is why Cambodian govt is very closed allied with China, to say the least.
I was born in '59 so teenager when this was going on but I remember hearing about the Cambodia bombing when supposedly the Vietnam war was coming to an end possibly. I was alarmed as a teen to hear that civilian villages were being bombed. Later hearing that they used the Cambodian bombings to extend the communist innuendos that perpetuated the Vietnam war I'm sickened by it that one man and many others that went along with him conducted this devastating history in America.
If you truly believe that the Vietnam War was perpetuated by 'Communist innuendos' then you really need to study history a little deeper than just unquestioningly accepting what some other uninformed imbecile has filled your empty head with. People like you are why these things happen, always retrospectively full of self-righteous holier-than-thou virtue signalling and hand wringing moralising which the very content of solely proves that they haven't even the first clue how the issue that is the target of their confected outrage came to be in the first instance. Communist innuendo indeed, SMH
@Angelica Michelle Jane Fonda supported the communist Viet Nam and had photos published of her sitting on the aniti-aircraft gun that shot down US pilots. This was a big boost for the communists' morale in North Viet Nam. This angered many US soldiers, and still anger them even to this day. However, decades later, Jane Fonda confessed that she had a lapse in judgment at that time when the photo was taken. It's unfortunate that this video shows only one side of the story.
@@tyronekim3506 That's not an accurate contextualisation of Jane Fonda's visit to North Vietnam nor of most relevance to the issue at hand, her persistent conduct choices. She indeed also made a number of propaganda radio broadcasts on behalf of North Vietnam which is what in fact resulted in her being labelled as 'Hanoi Jane' and also handed over to North Vietnamese jailers, a note that one of the US POW's at the 'Hanoi Hilton' prison had covertly passed to her during a visit, which resulted in that prisoner being subject to severe torture. As a US citizen, Fonda's actions in providing both material and moral assistance to a belligerent nation during a time of conflict were utterly inexcusable regardless of her political loyalties or opinions regarding this. True to her immoral, self-centred personality Fonda has consistently lied about and contradicted her own statements, attempted explanations and apologies for these actions on a number of occasions over the subsequent years.
@@adriancollette7010 Meaning America devastated Cambodia?? THAT is the theme here. The illegal bombing CREATED the Khmer Rouge then they killed 1/3 of their own population. FFS
Its still going on in ca. And Australia and around the united stated. Khmer was what my bible study guy was forcing me to listen to on cassette tapes since i was in preschool. Many children died

For the height of injustice * is to seem just without being so. To the perfectly unjust man, then, we must assign perfect injustice and withhold nothing of it, but we must allow him, while committing the greatest Wrongs, to have secured for himself the greatest reputation for justice; and if he does happen to trip,*' we must concede to him the power to correct his mistakes by his ability to speak persuasively if any of his misdeeds come to light, and when force is needed, to employ force by reason of his manly spirit and vigour and his provision of friends and money ; and when we have set up an unjust man of this character, our theory must set the just man at his side-a simple and noble man, who, in the phrase of Aeschylus, does not wish to seem but be good.... We must tell it, then ; and even if my language is somewhat rude and brutal,'' you must not suppose, Socrates, that it is I who speak thus, but those who commend injustice above justice. What they will say is this : that such being his disposition the just man -will have to endure the lash, the rack, chains, the branding-iron in his eyes, and finally, after every extremity of suffering, he will be crucified,*' and so will learn his lesson that not to be but to seem just is what we ought to desire." [The Republic, Plato, Book 2]
Just to confess that I've now been hooked by DN because of Amy's journalistic bravery to expose relentlessly any social dirts deliberately swept under the carpet by the mighty and the influential in our communal secular world. Thanking you for being an exemplary fearless truth-cum-justice seeker abiding by your journalistic deontology and ethics. Huge respect for all your carefully selected knowledgeable guests on DN.

My girlfriend who is Cambodian was about 8 years old at this time this led to her entire family being killed. I think it's safe to say how there is not one family in Cambodia who did not lose a family member from the murderous bombings of America on Cambodia at Nixon and Kissinger's behest. I love this girl and she has had to live with this all her life her father her mother everybody dead nine brothers all dead she was the only one to survived. Presently I'm working on a movie where the beginning of the movie is America dropping bombs on Cambodia and it's about a Khmer family and their plight to try to save the children in the end there's only two children left everybody else is dead. I would love to see this become a really nice movie it deserves it.
Please finish your movie , I am sure it will reveal how the U S has committed lots of “ war crimes “ while we accused Putin of war crimes, hypocrisy at its best from the U S.!!
@@muchogoucho2254 it was so kind of you to ask and I know so many people you're so strong about this issue however screenplay still has a ways to go until the starting production. I am merely the writer who wanted to bring to the people's attention the atrocities that had been committed by the United States government against the beautiful Khmer people. Anything beyond my work is in the producers hand and the casting director. I am attempting to see if Ann Jolie would be interested in producing this feature film as a sequel to her Cambodian film about the Khmer Rouge. If I'm so lucky as to strike a deal with her then I would suggest she is the one to contact about placement in this film. Maybe keep an eye out and when you hear some Buzz about this film I would suggest attempting to contact the producer or casting director. Thank you so much for your interest.

The word ‘war criminal’ is NOT “thrown around” in debates; and it absolutely reflects on the person who is accused, not the accuser. What a disgrace that response was.
The problem with terms like "war criminal", "concentration camp", "genocide" and "mass murder" is that they apply to things go from horrific to a multitude of times worse than that. And people tend - or willingly choose - to only accept these terms when they refer to the worst examples of the things these terms can refer to.
@@camelopardalis84 I hear you. When we went skiing my dad always reminded me “there’s no triple black diamond; it stops at double black, so be aware. Don’t get killed.” You hit a point where description pales, and after that it’s all the same term, but not necessarily the same reality. It does lend itself, then, to the notion that these terms are indeed being thrown around. The problem with these terms, let’s take ‘genocide’ for example, is NOT that we are throwing them around, but that so many things in the world succumb to the definition of ‘genocide.’ Et Friggin Cetera. Ugh. Brutal.
@@SkiRedMtn Do you feel that it's rather the definition of "genocide" that is too broad or that it's not too broad, but that we (well, certain humans) overall do so many things that fit that not-too-broad definition of "genocide". I think you are of the latter opinion, but I am not sure.

Thank you so much for covering this and for letting thr world know of the astrocities that were done to Cambodia. We had years and years of conflict and nearly a century of colonization. We only got peace for a while before this took place, and the country was once again thrown in to chaos, a genocide and more years of instability. I hope one day, the world will officially recognise this man as a war criminal. Otherwise, I can only hope that he'll suffer in hell for eternity.

As a Cambodian American from the so called Generation 1.5, I watch this with teary eyes thinking about the injustice for my parents who lost over 50% of their family members in the late 70s. Thank you Mr Turse and Professor Grandin for being the voice for how we Cambodians are still feeling over 4 decades later.
1996, I visited the school, in Phnom Penh, that was used as torture prison. The feeling of utter helplessness and abandonment was overwhelming. This pain was and is still past on to future generations. As a former German, I know that the capacity for evil acts is not owned by one Nation only, but is part of who we can decide to be. Those who oppose it, often pay a high price. We are facing similar times, on a global scale. It's time to resist the war mongers and those who pretend to act in the 'Public's Interest!'

@@augenbutter The Tuol Sleng Museum or S-21 Museum used to be a school but was converted into the S-21 torture prison. One of the most horrendous torture places in history. Out of the thousands who were sent there, I believe only a handful of people made it out alive. I visited Cambodia with my parents a few years ago and they refused to go to the museum with me. I didn't understand this until I saw the S-21 documentary. How could I have asked them to visit such a place?

Noam Chomsky was right saying “the United States owes Cambodia not only an apology but massive reparations for the B-52 bombing campaign called Operation Menu that killed up to a million people” and “Henry Kissinger would certainly be brought to trial for his role in the bombing, if the world were governed by justice, not forces.
After they pay American slavery reparations
Is Noam chomsky ur idol ?
The Khmer Rouge was killing people in massive numbers. The US was not supposed to be in Cambodia but we were. I know an army ranger who was dropped into the country and was captured by the KR. He was lined up in front of a firing squad 3 times and 3 times he pissed his pants. Each time they used blanks. Later the US sent in troops to get them out and at one point the enemy pointed a pistol at him and it misfired. Later after his service he related this story to me. He was not right after that trama but who could blame him. So I agree Kissinger was a no good prick but the whole story is not being told. We were in Cambodia on the ground even though the US denies it.

Invasions are usually wrong and illegal, but Vietnam in 1979 invaded Cambodia to stop Pol Pot's genocide.
Few objected, but the US subsequently fought for Pol Pot to have a seat at the UN!
Search "R2P: Responsibility to Protect" as a legal defense for Vietnam, and in February, 2022, for Russia to prevent the "ethnic cleansing" of Donbas.
The UN recognizes the right of people to vote and secede from one country and join another, or be independent.
Just as the corporate media brainwashed the American people about Indochina, they have done the same with Ukraine and Russia.

You Americans are the ones who have the duty to carry out the indictment please do not wait for idiots to tell you when to
I have asked my father who is now 72 years old to write his memoir about the bombing. He used to tell how he and his friends and villagers ran for their lives while their village in Takeo province was bombing. It was terrifying. Also, I heard that farmers need to harvest their rice at nighttime to avoid the bombing at daytime. It resonates with me about the phrase he uses 'shot at everything that moves'. They were just harvesting rice. To eat. Just to eat and be able to live.
But you see, elites like Kissinger don't want everyone to live and be happy. Only the few who are willing to submit to them and be their slaves.
I can't even begin to understand the terror he had to endure to survive. America is guilty for its own genocide. And it doesn't seem to have a end to this.

This shows how twisted our world has become when people like Kissinger is treated like royalty while people who committed far less crimes are treated like shit.
For Kissinger and his supporters, all non-Jews are not really humans. The same mindset gave birth to supremacist PNAC and the genocidal Wolfowitz Doctrine of full-spectrum dominance. The wars of aggression in the Middle East (millions of human beings of all ages were murdered) and the ongoing war against Russians by using ethnic Ukrainians as cannon fodder have the same origin -- the supremacist mindset encouraging looting and mass slaughter.

It's infuriating to me that this guy, who has committed so many atrocities, have managed to live a long and prosperous life. I'll be more beside myself knowing all the usual suspects who will glorify him as a hero upon his death; from The NYT to the president and every corporate outlet.

The oligarchy families of the military industrial complex including media families are diverting our attention not to hate them instead. Kissinger might be very bad but he was never the boss. Who sold war bonds in WW2? Who financed, supplied, constructed, staffed, advised, own the patents, and controlled the Manhattan Project? Who were manufacturing bombers and bombs for the Vietnam War? Who owned all the necessary raw materials and factories for war productions? Who should be past tense and who are present?

Sure. OK People hate Kissinger because his masterful brilliance of real politik. Kissinger is the type of tool you employ reluctantly, like a white phosphorous artillery shell or a fuel-air bomb. You use it because you absolutely have to achieve a goal but you know that in achieving it many innocents will be hurt.

Bravo!

Not only Kissinger, the other fellow George Soros of NED.
Why is Kissinger still involved in any of our dealings? He was never brought to punishment for His War Crimes. I think, if he is still alive, he should be arrested and set before a court for his war crimes. This is a very BAD leader, and NO ONE HELD HIM TO ACCOUNTABILITY WHY? Who blocked them from accountability? They too should be charged and held accountable.

As a Cambodian American I remembered my mom telling me about the plane dropping bombs and they were in the rice fields. They had to run for covers. My mom and dad both had PTSD from the war. Sadly, both of them passed away in 2004 and 2005.
I lived and worked in Cambodia for a few years; beautiful country, lovely people, but so much just below the surface.
Everyone over a certain age has a story of hardship.
Sending you love
My most profound sympathies for your parents and your loss. I know it makes no difference now to anyone, but those among us who saw HK as an evil demon all along, could do nothing but observe.

I used to watch this channel every now and then But I question what I'm hearing after their coverage of The Kyle Rittenhouse case. I'm Saddened That is hard to find any outlet That cares more about their politics than facts.
Would you surprised if i tell you Kissinger is still invited by European leaders to this day? And they talk about arresting South American and African Presidents the next day 😂
funny how a guy who is already known as a war criminal, kinda redeems himself by speaking out against arming Ukraine, SUDDENLY has NEW info come out from 50 years ago that only reinforce what we already knew. this is so contrived and seems to only be about trying to discredit someone that is NOW speaking out against war. AMY GOODMAN IS NOTHING BUT A SEMI-POLISHED TURD AS IS HER JOKE OF A NEWS CHANNEL, democracy now!
During the 2016 election seeing Hillary Clinton looking up at Henry Kissinger with glowing admiration seriously disgusted me. Thank you Bernie for saying it for me since I haven't been able to speak for over a decade. I have to admit Bernie is more diplomatic than I am. When it comes to people like Kissinger I could get really ugly.
Imagine if the communists had prevailed, they had plans to kill millions of americans who would not go along with the communist doctrine within the US if they came to power.
Are you surprised of hrc? Wake up.
" It's a club and you ain't in it! "
I totally agreed with you about this ugliness/oldest/corrupt/dirtiest-“dr” Kissinger and luckily Hillary have lost a presidency, if she wins then who knows the US is in the hands of the CCP by now. And also, Kissinger have tried “connect the dot” from Trumps to China but unsuccessful. In last 48 years the names Henry Kissinger often appear in my minds any time that April 30 returned ( the South Vietnam lost to freaking North Vietnamese Communist in April 30, 1975) because Kissinger was a architect of the deal that sold Vietnam to China.
Too bad that Obama, Clinton, Hillary and Biden are all looking up to Kissinger who’s just the old men without my respect.
Thanks Leealex.

Bernie is a useful fool for the Dems ......so they can say...."See , we are a true democracy where even an extreme leftist like Sanders can speak his mind"........"never mind we will never ever allow this commie to question the Pentagon".....To whom the two allowed political parties have to bow.
Which usually is the privilege of one party states.
It's crazy how you can get the death penalty For killing one person And somebody that has killed thousands Gets to be rich.
Of course Kissinger would think it shameful to throw around the term "war criminal." Criminals don't typically like to be called what they are, especially not when they believe that it's good and just for them to do it. Kissinger is one of those.
His first name is ‘Heinz’, not Henry. He don’t like that either. - These lot shut down the mafia to take its place.

No no that's wrong, God can give a human a very long life, because He gave life to humanity, ,but there are two things in this case about high age. God maybe allowed the devil to keep him alive, hoping that he might regret his evil actions and turn to God, or the devil has free hands to keep him alive, and then when it pleases him to end his life and let him end as a lost soul, because God dont want evil people in His Heaven.

Kissinger is Jewish. So is Nuland and Blinken and the Kagan Neocons, Helen Sherman, Janet Yellen etc. They pushed this war against Russia.
Jews in the Ukraine are less than 1% of the population. They control the media. And the Ukrainian Jews involved in the US proxy war against Russia as well, Presidents Poroshenko, Zelensky, Ukrainian Prime minister Ukraine Denys Shmyhal, Ukraine Defense minister, Oleksii Reznikov, and many in the fake parliament.
Oligarchs of Ukraine are mostly Jewish. ihor Kolomoisky is Jewish as well. He sponsored Zelesnky the Comedian into power and he funded the Azov Nazi's. Sam Bankman Fried. FTX money laundering theft funneled money through the Ukraine back to the USA. George Soros is also Jewish. He does what he did and destabilized the Ukraine with the Orange revolutions.

Henry Kissinger was the face of what happened in Cambodia but he was acting as a US agent. Nothing he did was not under the direct authority of the US. If any entity should be on trial at the Hague it should be the US. Anything less would be allowing sovereign entities to escape responsibility for what they do. These behaviors, the atrocities will continue until the root cause is addressed. This doesn't mean that he has no fault but not addressing the US responsibility allows us to continue to commit these types of atrocities. That's what needs to be talked about.

The entire point of hierarchical structures, from governments to corporations, is for those at the top to avoid accountability for their actions. These people will never face the consequences of their crimes, the system is engineered entirely to protect and enrich them, not punish them.

I was in my early 20's when this was happening. The bombing of Cambodia and then Kent State had a profound effect upon my worldview. I decided then that I would move to Costa Rica when I retired because they have no military. In 2014, I decided to travel to Cambodia just one time before I headed to Central America. I fell in love with the Cambodia people. I am in my seventh year living in Cambodia. I have a wife and two adult daughters now. My wife's homeland is very near the VN border. She was born in 1977...in the middle of the genocide. Her mother was a victim of the Khmer Rouge in 1978.

My uncle took me up into his B52, in the 1950's, when it was parked next to the hangar for a full servicing of its nuclear payload. The first thing I noticed was his eye patch hanging from the pilot controls. He explained that he would put it on before the start of the bombing run to protect one eye, to be able to continue his mission, after a flash that was expected to blind his unprotected eye. My uncle was a warrior willing to sacrifice his life to protect Freedom. He refused to commit "B 52" war crimes in the "Vietnam" war after he and his B52 were sent to Guam for that purpose. The evil in the US air force then tried to see he would be killed by pulling him out of his B52 and putting him, alone, in an unarmored, single engine, Cessna to fly forward air control for field artillery where 1/2 the pilots, so assigned, died. He survived and drove up from the Colorado Springs air base, as he was being mustered out, to visit me at school in Denver and tell me the details of what was going on, that forced him to take the stand he did , that forced him out of the air force.

Greetings from Cambodia. I protested the war and illegal/immoral bombings perpetrated by this disgusting, evil man during my high school and college years in Indiana. I came to Southeast Asia 10 years ago as an apology for what was done here in the name of my country. I can assist students with English if they think that is something that will help them achieve their goals and support their families.
I've heard the horrifying stories of what my country did here in Cambodia and Laos in the villages of my students. Unexploded ordinates dropped on the people here still take an average of one life a week or physically maim villagers nearly 50 years later--usually farmers working in the fields or children thinking the baseball-sized ordinates are toys. The US set the foundation for the mass murders by Khmer Rouge in re-purposed school buildings and temple grounds. I met an elderly man once in Phoenix when I was back in the US teaching for a few months. He was driving a sports car and returning from a game of pool with buddies at a bar. He smiled as he told me about his job loading US bombers in Thailand for the bombing raids over Cambodia and Laos. I'm glad to be back in Southeast Asia.

On this Memorial Day, I humbly pay tribute to the millions of Cambodians who lost their lives as the result of this man decision. I almost die from malnutrition during the regimes changes and political turmoil in the country. I was young and didn't comprehend what the hell was going on with massive of people evacuation. Now I know. There were young people and elders, the cripples and people who were severely ill got separated from family and left behind without food or water on the side of the road. During this period of time, I loss my youngest brother and later on my father perished under the ruthless regime. When I was young, I used to think the U.S. is the fine example for all other nations to look up to the U.S. The U.S. is a rich country driven by war machines paid by taxpayers; the working poor. Now a day. I think we need to evaluate ourselve. Because of the past experienced this is why Cambodian govt is very closed allied with China, to say the least.
I was born in '59 so teenager when this was going on but I remember hearing about the Cambodia bombing when supposedly the Vietnam war was coming to an end possibly. I was alarmed as a teen to hear that civilian villages were being bombed. Later hearing that they used the Cambodian bombings to extend the communist innuendos that perpetuated the Vietnam war I'm sickened by it that one man and many others that went along with him conducted this devastating history in America.

However, decades later, Jane Fonda confessed that she had a lapse in judgment at that time when the photo was taken.
It's unfortunate that this video shows only one side of the story.
@@tyronekim3506 That's not an accurate contextualisation of Jane Fonda's visit to North Vietnam nor of most relevance to the issue at hand, her persistent conduct choices. She indeed also made a number of propaganda radio broadcasts on behalf of North Vietnam which is what in fact resulted in her being labelled as 'Hanoi Jane' and also handed over to North Vietnamese jailers, a note that one of the US POW's at the 'Hanoi Hilton' prison had covertly passed to her during a visit, which resulted in that prisoner being subject to severe torture. As a US citizen, Fonda's actions in providing both material and moral assistance to a belligerent nation during a time of conflict were utterly inexcusable regardless of her political loyalties or opinions regarding this. True to her immoral, self-centred personality Fonda has consistently lied about and contradicted her own statements, attempted explanations and apologies for these actions on a number of occasions over the subsequent years.

What they will say is this : that such being his disposition the just man -will have to endure the lash, the rack, chains, the branding-iron in his eyes, and finally, after every extremity of suffering, he will be crucified,*' and so will learn his lesson that not to be but to seem just is what we ought to desire."
[The Republic, Plato, Book 2]

Thank you for this reporting.
Just to confess that I've now been hooked by DN because of Amy's journalistic bravery to expose relentlessly any social dirts deliberately swept under the carpet by the mighty and the influential in our communal secular world. Thanking you for being an exemplary fearless truth-cum-justice seeker abiding by your journalistic deontology and ethics. Huge respect for all your carefully selected knowledgeable guests on DN.
Grayzone said DN is currently propagandaring for the US government against China, Russia .. etc.
Propaganda is not good.
@@good2freelance1 Thnx for your germane contribution! Indeed, very few alert and unsullied critics wouldn't agree with you wholly and unquestionably.
However, I like it very much when Amy doesn't interrupt her guests; many of whom do call a spade a spade, but not a long flat spoon; in regards to uncle sam's bloody and egocentric interferences left, right and centre.
watching this program so emotionally it's reminded many thing that I gone through for all those years
That Henry Kissenger has not been executed renders all other arguments against the death penalty moot.
Nah it’s an argument against it, the us has it and only the poor and helpless get it.
Kissinger needs to be tried for crimes against humanity. He is not alone.
My girlfriend who is Cambodian was about 8 years old at this time this led to her entire family being killed. I think it's safe to say how there is not one family in Cambodia who did not lose a family member from the murderous bombings of America on Cambodia at Nixon and Kissinger's behest. I love this girl and she has had to live with this all her life her father her mother everybody dead nine brothers all dead she was the only one to survived.
Presently I'm working on a movie where the beginning of the movie is America dropping bombs on Cambodia and it's about a Khmer family and their plight to try to save the children in the end there's only two children left everybody else is dead. I would love to see this become a really nice movie it deserves it.
Nothing Nice About War
Please finish your movie , I am sure it will reveal how the U S has committed lots of “ war crimes “ while we accused Putin of war crimes, hypocrisy at its best from the U S.!!
🙏🏻🙏🏽🙏
Welldone,may I have a part in the film please😊
@@muchogoucho2254 it was so kind of you to ask and I know so many people you're so strong about this issue however screenplay still has a ways to go until the starting production. I am merely the writer who wanted to bring to the people's attention the atrocities that had been committed by the United States government against the beautiful Khmer people. Anything beyond my work is in the producers hand and the casting director. I am attempting to see if Ann Jolie would be interested in producing this feature film as a sequel to her Cambodian film about the Khmer Rouge. If I'm so lucky as to strike a deal with her then I would suggest she is the one to contact about placement in this film. Maybe keep an eye out and when you hear some Buzz about this film I would suggest attempting to contact the producer or casting director. Thank you so much for your interest. PS my dad was Danny Thomas so this kind of runs in the family bloodline
A person is never too old to be confronted with their crimes & to face justice & whatever punishment justice demands.
This is absolutely sickening, No words can describe the horror. Ungodly acts
Too true.
I'm surprised with all of the horror this man is responsible for that he is still alive.
Because God doesn't' want his type and Hell is full at the moment@
Hell and heaven coexist
Cuz Kanye was right...
This arrogant war monger also probably cloned himself too he will be around for a long time
Kissinger is Jewish. So is Nuland and Blinken and the Kagan Neocons, Helen Sherman, Janet Yellen etc. They pushed this war against Russia.
Jews in the Ukraine are less than 1% of the population. They control the media. And the Ukrainian Jews involved in the US proxy war against Russia as well, Presidents Poroshenko, Zelensky, Ukrainian Prime minister Ukraine Denys Shmyhal, Ukraine Defense minister, Oleksii Reznikov, and many in the fake parliament.
Oligarchs of Ukraine are mostly Jewish. ihor Kolomoisky is Jewish as well. He sponsored Zelesnky the Comedian into power and he funded the Azov Nazi's. Sam Bankman Fried. FTX money laundering theft funneled money through the Ukraine back to the USA. George Soros is also Jewish. He does what he did and destabilized the Ukraine with the Orange revolutions.
Iraq war was created by the same tribe.
Zionist Neocons Jewish and Christian. Richard Perle, Madeliene Albright, William Kristol, Paul Wolfwowitz, Joseph Liberman, Elliot Cohen, Elliot Cohen, David From, Robert Kagan,
And they always claim victimhood.

@@cherieallen6726 oh yeah Jesus will fix it all....right. pathetic
I am praying for you.
@@cherieallen6726 I’m not a Christian but, take out references to Christianity and I agree.
@@karenwaddell9396 sad for your foolish soul. So your the infamous " Karen" they talk about😂🤣
Nick Turse is tearing up just talking about this, we can feel his heart-breaking at all these atrocities.
Thank you Amy, just gained even more respect for Anthony Bourdain. He is sorely missed.
Antoni Boudin, what has he to do with this?
@@ErikaWelindt-cs6uz Perhaps you could watch the whole way through instead of reading the comments.
Stellar research and reporting by Nick Turse and Greg Grandin. 👏👏 Eye opening and moving.
The word ‘war criminal’ is NOT “thrown around” in debates; and it absolutely reflects on the person who is accused, not the accuser.
What a disgrace that response was.
Abusive, exploitive narcissists will always try to shame you for pointing out their destructive behavior.
The problem with terms like "war criminal", "concentration camp", "genocide" and "mass murder" is that they apply to things go from horrific to a multitude of times worse than that. And people tend - or willingly choose - to only accept these terms when they refer to the worst examples of the things these terms can refer to.
@@camelopardalis84 I hear you. When we went skiing my dad always reminded me “there’s no triple black diamond; it stops at double black, so be aware. Don’t get killed.”
You hit a point where description pales, and after that it’s all the same term, but not necessarily the same reality.
It does lend itself, then, to the notion that these terms are indeed being thrown around. The problem with these terms, let’s take ‘genocide’ for example, is NOT that we are throwing them around, but that so many things in the world succumb to the definition of ‘genocide.’ Et Friggin Cetera.
Ugh. Brutal.
@@SkiRedMtn Do you feel that it's rather the definition of "genocide" that is too broad or that it's not too broad, but that we (well, certain humans) overall do so many things that fit that not-too-broad definition of "genocide".
I think you are of the latter opinion, but I am not sure.
@@camelopardalis84 yes, the latter.
Crap, sorry if that wasn’t clear. I’m not minimizing our definition of genocide.
Thank you DN! Thank you!
Thanks Amy & DN for another great report. 😀 Please encourage all of your viewers who can, to fight the corruption epidemic by bold & intelligent whistle blowing & leaking of powerful information to expose corruption on a grand scale. 🙂
I was kicked off twitter on his 99th birthday for calling him a war criminal and regretting that he lives while so many of his victims and their families do not.
No ' right minded person' should be using ,$hitter anyway, humble bragging is still bragging.
@@robertdore9592
Are you siding with the killers ? We as Cambodian we love our nations they were great Khmer people living their best life peaceful and prosperious suddenly the aftermath was exactly hell on earth within a blink of an eye. My father had PTSD starting from scratch and work as dishwasher into a new land . My parent were leading a frugal and successful entrepreneur but we fled with nothing I have seen and still remember a lot vividly the death of our people !!! Anyways I will hopefully write a full story of our beloved Cambodia !!!
Thank you so much for covering this and for letting thr world know of the astrocities that were done to Cambodia. We had years and years of conflict and nearly a century of colonization. We only got peace for a while before this took place, and the country was once again thrown in to chaos, a genocide and more years of instability.
I hope one day, the world will officially recognise this man as a war criminal. Otherwise, I can only hope that he'll suffer in hell for eternity.
Henry Kissinger has just turned 100 years of age ? What? How come is this !? 😮
I think Buddhism law of karma has an answer to this. Perhaps.he has some previous lifetime carried over merits .. N universal poetic justice works as such.
Vaso ruim não quebra 😂😂
@@rafinha4034 translated into my native language you probably mean to say "mala hierba nunca muere."..
✌️
What a treat to watch such scorching, relevant journalism... thank you!
The irony is that this guy received the Nobel Peace prize 1973.
as later did Oblamah
....and A.Hitler was proclaimed "Man of the Year" by "Time" magazine in 1939...and his face is on the cover (clearly), so it is not ironic, it is all carefully planed and meticulously executed.... step by step...evil game with real people playing it...
My blood boils when I hear those atrocities.
Kissinger is a sociopath mass murderer but he'll never be punished.
Kissinger hasn't died because Satan is afraid of him😂
Thanks for this excellent video.
