        McCain: Trump is a bad person who has insulted me and my family. Don't invite him to my funeral. Also John McCain: Henry Kissinger? Guy who definitely committed war crimes while helping Nixon fight the war I was a POW in? Sign him up!

        Getting into Vietnam wasn't the bad part (though that was certainly bad enough). It's what our leaders who continued the war did that's the problem. That Kissinger isn't locked up in the Hague for the crimes he perpetrated on the people of SE Asia is a national disgrace.

        Things were much different. Nixon felt like he was fighting the Soviets by proxy. The 1973 war powers act was passed as an attempt to curtail president’s powers that get into and keep us in conflicts. Ultimately, congress needs to be willing to take on a president.

        Doesn't mean it was right. By any modern sense of the word, Kissinger is a war criminal.

        I know this isn’t directly responding but, in your opinion, was dropping atomic bombs war crimes?

        I think it was. While it shortened the war and likely saved millions of lives on both the Allied and Japanese sides, it was still the US murdering thousands of non-combatants.

        That’s why i believe when it comes to warfare there are hardly ever simple decisions, especially at the strategic level.

        Why was Kissinger with Trump during the Russian visit May 10th, following Comey firing? And why does he want Trump to recognize Russia's annexation of Crimea? (The New Republic, 10May2017, by Jeet Heer)pic.twitter.com/3vY7BiPl3l
