He was known for his practice of “realpolitik” — engaging with the world based on practical objectives rather than moral ideals — and was credited with the secret diplomacy that helped thaw U.S. relations with China. But he was also accused of alleged war crimes for the bombing of Cambodia during the Vietnam War, backing Pakistan’s genocide in Bangladesh, and green-lighting the Argentine dictatorship’s “dirty war” against dissidents.
This is the best summary I could come up with: Henry Kissinger, war criminal and complete piece of garbage, finally died. The world is a better place now.
Living to 100 was a pretty big “fuck you” though :\
