(*Editors Note |The selection of Henry Kissinger by the Bush Administration to
oversee the investigation of the events leading up to the September
11th. attacks has done little to allay concerns about what the Administration
knew prior to the attacks. To the contrary Kissinger with all his baggage
appears to represent an almost desperate desire on the part of the Bush
Administration to keep the events leading up to the attacks hidden from public
view. Remember as you do the math; this a man who cannot travel freely in Europe
and many other parts of the world for fear of being detained by local
authorities. Kissinger is a very risky appointment. One cannot help but wonder
what would prompt the Bush Administration to take so great a risk. -- ma)

    Quotes from Former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger

    Famous Quotes by Henry Kissinger

     "The US must carry out some act somewhere in the world which shows its
determination to continue to be a world power."
     -- Henry Kissinger, post-Vietnam blues, as quoted in The Washington Post,
April 1975

    "Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to
restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful. This is especially
true if they were told there was an outside threat from beyond, whether real or
promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all
peoples of the world will plead with world leaders to deliver them from this
evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented
with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the
guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world
government."
     -- Henry Kissinger speaking at Evian, France, May 21, 1992 Bilderburgers
meeting. Unbeknownst to Kissinger, his speech was taped by a Swiss
delegate to the meeting.

    "I don't see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to
the irresponsibility of its people. The issues are much too
important for the Chilean voters to be left to decide for themselves."
     -- Henry Kissinger, Secretary of State under Richard Nixon, about Chile
prior to the CIA overthrow of the democratically elected government of
socialist President Salvadore Allende in 1973

    "Why should we flagellate ourselves for what the Cambodians did to each
other?"
     -- Henry Kissinger - who (with Richard Nixon) was responsible for the
massive bombing of Cambodia in 1973, which killed three-quarters of a
million peasants and disrupted Cambodian society, setting the stage for Pol Pot
to come to power and ultimately kill another one-and-a-half million
people

    "Covert action should not be confused with missionary work."
     -- Henry Kissinger, commenting on the US sellout of the Kurds in Iraq in
1975

    "The illegal we do immediately. The unconstitutional takes a little longer."

     --Henry Kissinger
