Launch all-out blitz on jihadists, says Kissinger


HENRY Kissinger has urged US President Barack Obama to “launch an all-out attack” on the terrorist group Islamic State in Syria and Iraq, warning that Americans have become “bystanders” in the Middle East.

In an exclusive interview, the former US secretary of state said air strikes should be of “limited duration as a punitive measure” and “not make any distinction between Syria and Iraq”.

“There can’t be any debate any more about fighting them,” he said. Dr Kissinger, an influential force in US foreign policy for more than four decades, accused Mr Obama of failing to appreciate that other countries yearned for American guidance in the Middle East and other crisis areas.

“We don’t have the power to impose our preference, but without us, and without some leadership from us, the new order cannot be created,” he said. “That I think has not (been) understood.”

In my view, this is all part of the neo-con plan for "A New World Order".

Don't fall for it.

It only benefits the ultra rich megalomaniacs, and actually bankrupts America. War is what collapsed the Soviets.

Don't fall for it.

... of STFU's at Kissinger. Shut up Henry. Don't you have ANYTHING else to do beside meddle in the foreign affairs of this country? Just because you didn't get locked up in jail for life for wreaking havoc on this earth some 40-45 yrs ago doesn't mean anyone wants to hear what you have to say now.

... there ain't a jail or prison in the country that wants his stinky sulfuric butt on the premises. I think we need to round up all our domestic enemies (you know who they are) and set them to sea and tell them to never set foot in the United States again.

Has there been some vote on this "New World Order"?

Not too long ago, anyone that spoke of a NWO was a "Conspiracy Theorist". There's no New World Order and if you think there is you were a kook and a wackjob that belonged in an asylum. Mocked and scorned by a mob of people that wouldn't know how to pay attention if it was free.

Now that Biden, Kerry and Kissinger and others come right out and describe a New World Order they are just stringing 3 meaningless words together and one is silly for questioning these "leaders". Of course there's a New World Order chump! Why are you so stupid?

What a crock. How gullible are people anyway?



Will the Mainstream Media ever even ask what is meant by these words? Are they afraid of being labeled "Conspiracy Theorists"?

What the hell has happened to this country? It's getting harder to care every day. If people are just going to roll over for criminals and enemies of Democracy then they get what they deserve. Thomas Jefferson rolls in his grave.

doesn't seem to phase peole.

To be for these new wars is to be on the same side as Bush co., the same people we elected Obama to defend us against.

In my view.

... (and he WAS the first one to speak them) and wondered what the Hell he/they had up their sleeves. At the time, I thought it was just the Republicans with this grand plan. But then, in comes Bill Clinton and he gets those trade agreements through, invites all the Presidents up and had a big extravaganza celebration. Bill Clinton continued right on with GHWB's New World Order plan. And it's been down hill ever since, right up to today.

The world of laws GHWB was talking about was hidden inside the trade agreements, like the laws that are going to change everything even more if this new TPP trade agreement goes through. That's why they keep these trade agreement documents secret. If the American people knew what they were doing, if we could just get our hands on it and read it from top to bottom, the people would rise up once and for all and put a stop to it. Where do the leaders of this land get the right to dictate, without our knowledge, how our lives will be lived/affected by their behind the curtain New World Order scheme? Why did WE not have the right to decide if we wanted this New World Order scheme they had up their sleeves?

They might have kept it all secret, but We The People are catching up. Their plan is NOT a good one. It has failed miserably for the people of this country, and suddenly the rich are getting even richer and the standard of living has gone down the drain for the rest of us. My friends, we have been screwed!

There ALWAYS has to be debate you chicken-hawk REPUBLICAN. The last time your ilk said there was not time for debate is whenyou manufactured the "evidence" to justify the Iraq war.

Please let the blood on your hands dry from your last effort before you begin another one.

Ironic too, in a sickening way, how he's lived into his 90's after sending tens of thousands of young men to their deaths.
