Summary

“If the courts and lawyers of this country will not do their duty, we shall watch as the victims and survivors of this man pursue justice and vindication in their own dignified and painstaking way, and at their own expense, and we shall be put to shame.”

Forget Pinochet, Milosevic, Hussein, Kim Jong-il, or Gaddafi: America need look no further than its own lauded leaders for a war criminal whose offenses rival those of the most heinous dictators in recent history-Henry Kissinger.

What They're Saying

Critics Review

“This book is so studiedly defamatory that if Kissinger values his reputation, he really must sue.”– Literary Review

“A disturbing glimpse into the dark side of American power, whose consequences in remote corners of the globe are all too often ignored. Its countless victims have found an impassioned and skillful advocate in Christopher Hitchens.”–Sunday Times (London)
“An eloquent and devastating indictment of Henry Kissinger’s involvement in the war in Indochina, genocide in East Timor, and many other acts of indiscriminate murder.”–Village Voice
“Hitchens is a brilliant polemicist and a tireless reporter. Both sets of skills are on display throughout this book as he presents damning documentary evidence against Kissinger in case after case.”–San Francisco Chronicle
“I find it contemptible.”–Henry Kissinger
“This book is so studiedly defamatory that if Kissinger values his reputation, he really must sue.”–Literary Review
