Henry Kissinger, a former US secretary of state and national security adviser who escaped Nazi Germany in his youth to become one of the most influential and controversial foreign policy figures in American history, has died, according to a statement from his consulting firm, Kissinger Associates. He was 100.
I would rather have seen him getting 110 or older. Life’s a bitch for western people in these digits. Ask me how I know. What was coming for him would’ve come anyway or as Clint Eastwood said “We all have it coming, kid” As I thought about Margaret Thatcher or Helmut Kohl: they have earned their place in hell, why not a little taste of it here on earth first, where everybody can see it? Believe you me, these are not happy and fulfilled people, and it gets so much worse when they get old and their ego gets tired and the drug doesn’t work anymore.
Most people in the west get like that before triple digits. My cousin’s grandfather made it into his 90s with a healthy capable body, still doing physical tasks, and then suddenly his body’s condition took a dive and he was elderly and incapable for some years after that until he passed. Most people who don’t die of something else before they get there experience that at a younger age, where one month they are old but still able then suddenly their body turns against them the next month.
Though it is possible that Kissinger died of some illness or health condition that didn’t involve that nose dive.
Though either way, I don’t think anyone benefits from someone else’s suffering (other than sadistic pleasure) and prefer the idea that he can no longer pick up a phone and talk to people who have power to affect things.
RIP
To all of the people whose deaths he caused, they can finally rest in peace.
