Nixon Tapes: Kissinger fine with Jews getting gassed.

[bushmeister0]

"Nixon and Mr. Kissinger were brutally dismissive in response to requests that the United States press the Soviet Union to permit Jews to emigrate and escape persecution there.

'The emigration of Jews from the Soviet Union is not an objective of American foreign policy,' Mr. Kissinger said. 'And if they put Jews into gas chambers in the Soviet Union, it is not an American concern. Maybe a humanitarian concern.'

'I know,' Nixon responded. 'We can’t blow up the world because of it.'”

Maybe a humanitarian concern?

Your're a real Mensch Henry!

It's kind of funny how Kissinger always pulls the "Anti-Semite" card whenever any brings up Cambodia or Argentina etc, so is it anti-Semitic of me to mention that he's an anti_Semite?

1. "how Kissinger always pulls the "Anti-Semite" card whenever any brings up Cambodia or Argentina"

huh? I hadn't noticed this, but then again I don't pay attention to that piece of shit anyway.

[bushmeister0]

2. A classic example is when one of those talking heads brought up

Christopher Hitchens and his accusation that Kissinger was a war criminal. All Kissinger had to say was "That man is an anti-Semite," and all talk about the coup in Chile or the slaughter in East Timor or you name it came to an abrupt end. He does it all the time.

19. I'm glad he's alive to bear another piece of public shame.

3. I always thought Kissinger was Jewish - guess not.

[Donyellathon]

4. Kissinger is in fact Jewish

[Raksha]

6. He is Jewish, much to my everlasting shame and sorrow.

I'm Jewish too. I don't know why that fucker wasn't excommunicated ages ago.

9. Because we don't DO that, Rak!

Evict from Israel, tho???

15. H. K. is not only Jewish, he served in the US Army of Occupation in Germany

at the end of WWII and knows all about the Nazi death camps first hand - he SAW THEM...He was born in Germany, as Heinz Kissinger - he and his family came to Britain, then the US to escape the Nazis in 1939.
He joined the Army and served in Army Intelligence during and after WWII in Germany, returning to the US to attend Harvard on the GI Bill.

13. It is about CLASS.

They don't care what race or gender or ethnicity you are, they don't care about you if you are not one of them and they actively despise you if they think you need help from them.

To correct Kanye West: "BushThey don't care about blackother people".

5. I truly didn't think anything could shock me any more, but this does.

Even coming from Kissinger. I didn't think even he could be that callous and depraved.

[nadinbrzezinski]

7. I know this will shock some

but he was speaking the damn truth from a POV of states.

And he is still an ass...

[Justitia]

8. My jaw hit the floor when I read this & I thought Kissinger was done shocking me.

How can a Jew be so nonchalant about putting Jews into gas chambers?????????

[Peregrine Took]

10. If I were Henry I would move to South America - soon! n/t

[marmar]

12. But leftist democracies have taken over S. America.....

..... he's better off in the corporate-corrupted North.

14. I believe Dubai is the new fascist refuge. nt

11. Where there is death, there is Kissinger.

16. Um, hang on a second. I get that Kissinger is Pure Evil, War Criminal, blah blah, but

would people really be less derisive if the quote were exactly what you EXPECTED it to be?

If he said, "Hey, if Jews get gassed, we should nuke Russia," would that have been better?

And I thought that Saddam's treatment of his own people wasn't an American concern, but a
humanitarian one.

Can someone please help me with the inconsistency?

[Octafish]

17. That's where the 'Evil' in Bush Family Evil Empire comes in.

BFEE means "War Party," they are psychotic, sociopathic, greedhead warmongers.
