    There is one way in which Himmler and Kissinger differs… Himmler at least had the backbone to go and witness the results of his policies in person - specifically, the Babi Yar massacre in Ukraine. Kissinger never did go see for himself the gargantuan atrocities he had “achieved” in Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Bangladesh, Timor, and Chile.

    Oh, I forgot the other way Kissinger and Himmler differs… Himmler was hanged - Kissinger got off scott-free. So there’s that.

      so you really REALLY do not understand the brutality of the Holocaust then, and less so the history of the sub-chinease peninsula, and Pinochet couldn’t hold a candle to what Himmler did

        Trying to hide your hero’s crimes behind the Holocaust, are we? Just like your fascist friends over in occupied Palestine?

        Try harder.

              Yeah when you start throwing accusations of fascism at random posters, that’s pretty riled up behavior. Nobody but you is talking about Isreal vs Palestine in this thread. Not a single person you responded to said kissinger was a good guy. You can compare atrocities and acknowledge they’re all atrocities.

                that’s pretty riled up behavior.

                No, not really - considering how the situation in occupied Palestine has, once again, shown just how enthusiastically all these “liberals” start swallowing fascist justifications as soon as their fairy tale ideology is put to the test, I’d say it’s most definitely not a case of “random posters”.

                Not a single person you responded to said kissinger was a good guy.

                Go check the downvotes on my initial comment - there’s a very big difference between “not saying Kissinger was a good guy” and acknowledging that he was one of the most vile and prolific war criminals the 20th century managed to produce.

        Yeah… they don’t really like dirtying themselves with the mess they cause, do they?
