According to Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, when the bombing of North Vietnam finally started up again, Kissinger “expressed enthusiasm at the size of the bomb craters.” A Pentagon report released in 1973 stated that “Henry A. Kissinger approved each of the 3,875 Cambodia bombing raids in 1969 and 1970” -- the most secretive phase of the bombing -- “as well as the methods for keeping them out of the newspapers.”

People who are 18 years old now were born after Bill Clinton was impeached.

It is not likely they are very familiar with Kissinger. Probably a good idea to remind people what he did.
