How does karma work? How does God work? How does justice happen in this universe? Xi is thriving, Putin is stumbling along, Bibi fumbles and bumbles, Trump is in the throes of dementia, yet somehow they all still live, their #genocides continue unabated, each of them individually and, more worryingly, collectively.
And Pope Francis, our #SaintFrancis passes away.
The world is a bleak place these days

Given #Germany’s direct participation in multiple historical #genocides, not least the present one in #Palestine, along with its brutal domestic repression vs those critical of Israel’s mass murder of Palestinians in #Gaza, imo it is vital to recall the widespread post-war recruitment of former #Nazis into a host of governmental, police and other official roles!

Cambodia’s haunted present: 50 years after Khmer Rouge’s rise, murderous legacy looms large. “On April 17, 1975, tanks rolled into…Phnom Penh, to cheering crowds who believed…the civil war might finally be over. …what followed was one of the worst #genocides of the 20th century.

The history of Western #imperialism is bookended by #genocides: the #genocide perpetrated by #Columbus against the #Taino people after 1492, & the current #US #Israeli genocide against the people of #Palestine. Plus countless more in between. 500+ years of #barbarism & it must be stopped.

He green-lighted #coups and enabled #genocides. He told #dictators to get their #killing and #torturing done quickly, sold out the Kurds, and ran the botched operation to kidnap Chilean Gen. René Schneider (in the hope of derailing President Salvador #Allende’s inauguration), which resulted in Schneider’s murder. His post-#Vietnam turn to the #MiddleEast left that region in #chaos, setting the stage for #crises that continue to afflict #humanity.

The Nation · Henry Kissinger, War Criminal—Still at Large at 100We now know a great deal about the crimes he committed while in office, from helping Nixon derail the Paris Peace Talks and prolong the Vietnam War to green-lighting the invasion of Cambodia and Pinochet's coup in Chile. But we know little about his four decades with Kissinger Associates.
