Henry Kissinger unbloviates a previous bloviation with more bloviation

the fact that dr. strangelove still carries sufficient weight in domestic and international circles to warrant a bbc interview, serve as an advisor to bush on the iraq war, or spew his twisted counsel to his many still-worshipful admirers, is a sad commentary on the media and world citizenry in general...

along with mcnamara and nixon, kissinger should have been tried for war crimes a long time ago... instead, there's now a pantheon of his clones, the likes of cheney, rumsfeld, wolfowitz, feith, perle, adelman, kristol, and, yes, hillary, joe biden, and all the other wise, war-mongering sages, who have joined him in the ranks of infamy...

as noam chomsky has said in different words, giving deference to this man's opinion is abdicating our own ability to think about and render opinions on serious issues... i think kissinger was born genetically incapable of speaking either plainly or honestly about anything...

If you mean by 'military victory' an Iraqi government that can be established and whose writ runs across the whole country, that gets the civil war under control and sectarian violence under control in a time period that the political processes of the democracies will support, I don't believe that is possible.

note to george: have you considered that you might just be missing the last lifeboat to leave your sinking ship of fools...?
