Cable ties Kissinger to Chile controversy

By PETE YOST, Associated Press Writer – Sat Apr 10, 10:20 am ET

WASHINGTON – As secretary of state, Henry Kissinger canceled a U.S. warning against carrying out international political assassinations that was to have gone to Chile and two neighboring nations just days before a former ambassador was killed by Chilean agents on Washington's Embassy Row in 1976, a newly released State Department cable shows.

Whether Kissinger played a role in blocking the delivery of the warning against assassination to the governments of Chile, Argentina and Uruguay has long been a topic of controversy.

Most of us already knew this. It's just that it has now been confirmed beyond any lingering doubts.

There is a special cell reserved for Kissinger in Hades. He will be bunking with Pinochet for eternity.
