Authors Woodward and Bernstein also note that "The Final Days" is

"the
work of four people. Scott Armstrong, a former Senate Watergate
Committee investigator, and Al Kamen, a free-lance

writer/researcher,
assisted us full time in the reporting, research and some of the
writing."

Kissinger's quote regarding miltary men comes from Chapter 14,

which
extensively discusses Al Haig, Kissinger and other Nixon staff
advisors' negotiations and differences over national security

issues
during the 1969-1974 period.

The exact, direct quote marks begin with the word 'dumb' and

terminate
after the word 'used'.

Here is the FULL KISSINGER QUOTE verbatim from the bottom two

lines of
page 194 to line 14 of page 195:

In Haig's presence, Kissinger referred pointedly to military men

as
"dumb, stupid animals to be used" as pawns for foreign policy.
Kissinger often took up a post outside the doorway to Haig's

office
and dressed him down in front of the secretaries for alleged acts

of
incompetence with which Haig was not even remotely involved. Once
when the Air Force was authorized to resume bombing of North

Vietnam,
the planes did not fly on certain days because of bad weather.
Kissinger assailed Haig. He complained bitterly that the generals

had
been screamin for the limits to be taken off but that now their
pilots were afraid to go up in a little fog. The country needed
generals who could win battles, Kissinger said, not good briefers
like Haig.

On another occasion, when Haig was leaving for a trip to Cambodia

to
meet with Premier Lon Nol, Kissinger escorted him to a staff car,
where reporters and a retinue of aides waited. As Haig bent to get
into the automobile, Kissinger stopped him and began polishing the
single star on his shoulder. "Al, if you're a good boy, I'll get

you
another one," he said.


It is utterly astounding to me that the Americans continue to
tolerate this vermin.

But nothing changes, does it ? The new generation of Zionist
vermin in the US are still trying to tell the US military how to
fight the Iraq war, with the Zionist filth, Wolfowitz phoning up
twice daily to tell the generals what they should be doing !

When are the Americans going to take back control of their
own country, and, more to the point, their own armed
forces ?


Gee, just how long have you been paranoid? Do you sleep with a night light?
Need a new aluminum foil hat? Seen any black helicopters lately? How would your
life improve if there were no Jews in positions of power? Same for blacks,
Catholics..etc?

What have YOU done for your country? Whining about "them" doesn't count.
