Rest in Peace Rot in Hell
Dead at age 100, many things can be said about Henry Kissinger but war criminal comes first and foremost. He saw human lives as expendable statistical numbers. He is responsible for over a million lost lives - a true scourge of humanity. May the likes of him forever be expunged from existing.
Power is the Ultimate Aphrodisiac
Intoxicated by his celebrity status as the globe-trotting diplomat who popularized the tagline, Shuttle Diplomacy, Kissinger uttered this immortal phrase. Kissinger used that power to prolong the Vietnam War, escalate the war by indiscriminately bombing 2 neutral countries, and instigating a regime change against a democratically elected president of a sovereign nation.
Secretary of State
As United States Secretary of State and National Security Advisor during the Nixon administration, Kissinger helped prolong the Vietnam War and expand that conflict into neutral Cambodia; facilitated genocides in Cambodia, East Timor, and Bangladesh; accelerated civil wars in southern Africa; and supported coups and death squads throughout Latin America. He had the blood of at least 3 million people on his hands, according to his biographer Greg Grandin.

Ending Thoughts
Once you've been to the Killing Fiends of Cambodia as I have, and seen the mountain of skulls piled high, the number of surviving people with amputated legs (as a result of land mines not detonated during the Kissinger-authorized bombing of Cambodia), the tales of horror narrated by those whose who survived the bombing and the genocide of the Khmer Roughe campaign, all that human misery, you cannot look at Kissinger and feel like you want to throw up. Kissinger is a human incarnation of pure evil.
At the end of the day, he got away with it. He was never made accountable for his war crimes because he had many powerful allies in Washington and in the mainstream media. But now that he is dead, these allies no longer feel compelled to protect him. Thus, new evidence are coming to light revealing the true extent of his war crimes. He lived for a hundred years and in his wake, he left millions dead and hundreds of thousands mamed, wounded, orphaned, widowed and homeless. He caused untold suffering to humankind - the scourge of humanity. That is Henry Kissinger's legacy. May he rot in hell for all eternity.

The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin
(November 30, 2023) Benjamin Franklin became a recurring name thrown at me. First, while watching an interview of billionaire Charlie Munger, he said he kept 2 busts in his home of 2 people he admired the most - Benjamin Franklin and Lee Kuan Yew. On a '19 Recommended Books to Read in your Lifetime', I saw Benjamin Franklin's Autobiography. And while watching the American Revolution, Benjamin loomed larger than life. While watching an interview of celebrated author Walter Isaacson who was promoting his recent book about Elon Musk, I learned that he also authored a Benjamin Franklin biography! In my world-view of a benevolent universe blazing a path for me, this is a strong statement that I should roll up my sleeves and get to know Benjamin Franklin in an intimate way - by reading his autobiography...more »»
