This is Why You Shouldn't Celebrate the Death of Henry Kissinger

He got away with murder.

The case against Henry Kissinger as an indictable war criminal has been amply demonstrated for decades. And yet he died a free, comfortable, and highly lauded man in the West. He should have died by the hangman’s noose. The fact that his millions of victims were robbed of this justice is yet another crime against humanity. The fact that we in the West did not bring Kissinger to this justice is a source of forever, unwashable shame. We do not deserve forgiveness. So long as people like Kissinger remain shielded from accountability, the United States will remain deeply hated and under very real threat from those who have every right to hate us. I’m not sure what exactly can be celebrated here.

You can watch or listen to this article, “The Fact that Henry Kissinger Died a Free Man is Nothing to Celebrate” on the players above and below. Thank you for listening.
