An attorney for a victim of Uruguay's 1973-1985 dictatorship has asked his government to request the extradition of former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger over his alleged role in the notorious Operation Condor.
The Latin American dictatorships of the time "were mere executors" of a "plan of extermination" hatched in the United States by a group led by Kissinger, said attorney Gustavo Salle, who represents the family of Bernardo Arnone.
Operation Condor
Operation Condor was a campaign of state terrorism and intelligence operations implemented by right-wing dictatorships that dominated the Southern Cone in Latin America from the 1950s to 1980s, heavily relying on numerous assassinations. The systematic counter-terrorism aimed both to deter democratic influence and ideas disseminated in the region and to control active or potential opposition movements against these governments.
Operation Condor, which took place in the context of the Cold War, was given at least tacit approval by the United States which feared a Marxist revolution in the region. The targets were officially leftist guerrillas, but in fact included all kinds of political opponents, including their families and others, as reported by the Valech Commission.

Uhm.. Why is this one of the most discussed threads here on ATS??? Just the mere mention of this man's name makes you think on the biggest economic and government conspiracies in recent history, with the result of hundreds of millions and perhaps more than a billion people being impacted by it.
Icke on Kissinger
It is through Kissinger Associates and other sources, like the Bilderberg Group, that he has continued to manipulate events while apparently no longer in government. I say 'apparently' because he has been at the heart of government through the administrations of Bush-Reagan (the right way round), Boy Bush-Cheney and even Bill Clinton, who answers to the same web as the Bush family.
A CIA scientist who was ordered to report to the Oval Office during the father Bush presidency told me of his shock to find Henry Kissinger sitting in the president's chair and conducting the whole meeting while Bush just nodded. This was at a time when Kissinger was supposed to be nothing to do with government.'

Okay, while not being the most knowledgeable political conspiracy guy, I'm compelled to ask:
To your (any of you) knowledge, does Kissinger actually answer to any "higher ups"?
I mean, he's got to be working for someone, somewhere...right?

No, what I mean is if you have any links to back that up...

The reason his 'higher up" is Cardinal Egan is because he controls the federal Reserve Bank through the Council on Foreign relations.
The CFR belongs to the Cardinal. I'll leave it at that.
