Kissinger Quits as Chairman of 9/11 Panel
David Stout, New York TimesDr. Kissinger had come under heavy criticism since his selection by President Bush last month.
Dr. Kissinger had resisted urgings that he divulge the clients of the consulting firm he founded after leaving government.
Could the disclosure requirements have been too much?

The following revealing item on Henry Kissinger is extracted from an article from the ‘New World Order Intelligence Update’ [http://www.nwointelligence.com/NEWWORLD.HTM]:
‘And, fellow-Canadians, as a faint echo of the freedoms we have now lost in this once great Dominion, here’s a robust exercise of free speech, fresh from the Mother Country, which is now impossible to imagine in modern Canada!
[Henry Kissinger walks out on Paxman radio program in the U.K. after being asked, among other things, if he felt “like a fraud.” Exchange below, as reported by THE GUARDIAN, 29th June, 1999]
Jeremy Paxman: “It’s been 17 years since the last volume of your memoirs. You said you wanted to let the dust settle but [didn’t you] need the distance in order to rewrite history?”
Dr Kissinger: “No I based these memoirs on documents which were as valid then as they are now.”
Paxman: [describes Kissinger’s claim that he ended the cold war as “farfetched”] “What bothers a lot of people is you seem to ignore the human rights of people within regimes with which you’re trying to establish a balance of power.”
Kissinger: “That’s not correct either.”
Paxman: question about supporting General Pinochet and undermining President Allende in Chile.
Kissinger: “We did not support Pinochet. In what way did we support Pinochet?”
Paxman: “You supported the military regime.”
Kissinger: “After the coup we preferred Pinochet to Allende.”
Paxman: “It doesn’t stop there… You’re on record justifying the [behaviour of the] Chinese government in Tiananmen Square.”
Kissinger:… “I have never supported what the Chinese did in Tiananmen Square.”
Paxman: “Did you feel a fraud for accepting the Nobel Prize [for the Indo-China agreement]?”
Kissinger: “I wonder what you do when you do a hostile interview?”
Paxman: [accuses Kissinger of a “wilful misreading of history”]
Kissinger: “It may be a misreading but it wasn’t wilful.”
Paxman: question about the “hundreds of thousands of people killed in the bombing of Cambodia”.
Kissinger: “That’s absolutely untrue. We have no evidence that hundreds of thousands of people were killed… I think this is an absolute outrage, it’s nonsense.”
Paxman: “You don’t deny [the bombing of Cambodia] was secret though?… This was a secret operation against a neutral country…”
Kissinger: “Come on now, Mr Paxman, this was 15 years ago, and you at least have the ability to educate yourself about a lie on your own programme… ”
Paxman: “What’s factually inaccurate?”
Kissinger: “… That’s outrageous… ” [Kissinger abruptly leaves: Paxman calls out, “‘Bye, Dr. Kissinger”!]’
You’ll also find a superb archive of articles on the New World Order [which is impacting and changing us all increasingly] from the ‘New World Order Intelligence Update’, at http://www.rarehistorybooks.com/NWOCONSP.HTM. They are also mirrored at http://www.survivalistskills.com/NWODICT.HTM and at http://www.torontochristianbooks.com/NWOGOV.HTM. Well worth reading!
