April 24: picket war criminal Kissinger!
Henry Kissinger was US President Richard Nixon’s Secretary of State, his second in command.
He was a driving force behind the US war on Vietnam which killed 1 million Vietnamese people.
Kissinger was directly responsible for ordering the carpet bombing of Cambodia in 1969.
He gave full backing and military assistance to the Pinochet coup in Chile, later sanctioning the murder of Orlando Letelier in Washington in 1976.
Kissinger backed the Pakistani government in opposing Bangladeshi independence. Once again he supplied arms and intelligence.
He gave the go ahead for the Indonesian invasion of East Timor in 1975. Over 200,00 people were killed as a result.
He was also responsible for souring relations between Turkey, Greece and Cyprus – a division which still produces murder and maiming.
Kissinger’s legacy of American brutality around the world still survives. He remains a hero to the warmongers in Washington and Downing Street.
Kissinger is arriving in London to talk to the top 2,000 businessmen in Britain. He has his snout in the corporate trough, too.
Kissinger Associates’ clients have included Union Carbide (responsible for the Bhopal disaster), Coca Cola (say no more), American Express, ITT, Lockheed, Arco and HSBC.
