  1. What do Albright and Kissinger have in common? All comments are negative

  2. Earlier I was thinking he was biggest leader like Winston Churchill now I hear killed almost 3 million people his foreign policy 3 million he should be in jail how many of them are there

  3. Henry Kissinger is a war criminal. He betrayed South Vietnam, Taiwan, and in fact the entire Southeast Asia. He sold them to the communist China. He even sold our country by endorsing Chinese spies who are in disguise of Chinese businessmen and scholars. The only right thing he did is that he is gone forever. The moment I heard the news, I opened a bottle of champaign.

  4. His legacy is a war criminal. . Sold out abandoned VN to China .😡😡😡

  5. 1:26 let’s celebrate a murderer. Meet the Press is really irking me every since that Trump interview

  6. Will be remembered next to Stalin, Hitler, and Mao as one of the monsters of the 20th century.

  7. …..International financial boycotts were the primary factors in the collapse of apartheid in South Africa.
    The only way to end apartheid in Israel is to boycott them. And a one state solution is the answer………

  8. China is what it is thanks to slave master Kessinger.

  9. Nixon in his memoir acknowledged in 1971 US could not win the Vietnam war and also Soviet is having cold war with US on all proxy war fronts, US in early 1970's realize they desperately need to reapproach China again first time since 1949 to counter Soviet or at least to neutralize the cold war which is to make China neutral and not ally with Soviet, and US successfully convince China and China did stay neutral during cold war and China even wage war and military conflict against Vietnam (US number 1 military enemy from 70's to 80's) during Sino-Vietnam conflict from 1979-1991 to help US punish Vietnam militarily.

  10. 0:09 to help us remember former secretary of state ☹️

  11. A War Criminal on a grand scale. To this day, people are still being maimed, injured, and killed in Laos and Cambodia.

  12. "Very mixed"… mention all the horrific things he did…. waited until the very end in 2 sec blip even bring it up. Nice "reporting"

  13. Did he get a commission

  14. Kissinger was the WORST TRAITOR outside of BIDEN!!!

  15. Interesting how this person is been called a war criminal, and simultaneously I'm listening to this puff piece about him. What he along with Nixon did to the people of Chile is despicable. We are all witnessing the deterioration of our society, and yet corporate media praise is someone like this. Must be a coincidence 🤷
