[net.politics] Buckley on Kissinger

don@allegra.UUCP (08/31/83)

I have a few comments on Mr. Buckley's article on "The Incredible
Kissigner Returns".  I too have a strong distaste for Kissigner.
Having read "The Sideshow", I feel he committed criminal acts during
the Vietnam war.  I am not remotely happy to see him return to a high
position in government.

In every other respect, I thought Buckley's article was rather silly.
Mentioning Rockefeller, Soviet communist conspiracy and Kissinger in
one breath sounds suspiciously like the official line of the John Birch
Society.  I might also add that Panama's government (Buckley referred to
it as a Marxist dictatorship) is undoubtedly the most completely US
controlled state south of the boarder!  As for backing the "terrorist
takeover" in Rhodesia, I might remind everyone that Mugabe was chosen
in an election supervised by the English government.
