Why We MUST Protest
Henry Kissinger: Kissinger is an unrepentant
warmonger who bears responsibility for much bloodshed
throughout the world. His crimes on behalf of the U.S.
government against millions of poor and innocent people
are too many to mention in one e-mail. A brief synopsis:
Vietnam & Cambodia: During his tenure as U.S. National
Security Advisor, and later as Secretary of State,
Kissinger was the architect of Nixon?s war on Vietnam; he
oversaw the secret bombing of Cambodia.
Chile: Kissinger oversaw the CIA-assisted coup, which
ousted the democratically elected government of Salvador
Allende and installed the murderous dictator Augusto
Pinochet.
East Timor: Kissinger and Gerald Ford gave Indonesia the
green-light to invade East Timor in 1975, resulting in the
massacre of 200,000 East Timorese (over 1/3 of the
population).
The list goes on and on.
Shimon Peres: Former Israeli Prime Minister and current
Foreign Minister in the Sharon government, Shimon Peres
supports (and has always supported) Israel?s brutal and
illegal occupation of Palestinian land and suppression and
murder of Palestinian people. Like Kissinger, Peres is a
war criminal.
The Butcher of Qana: While Prime Minister in 1996, Peres
masterminded a massive Israeli bombing campaign in
Lebanon, including the bombing of a UN peacekeeping base
in the village of Qana where several hundred Palestinian
refugees took shelter. The Israeli bombs massacred 102
Palestinians and injured more than 120 others.
