He's Back! Protest Henry Kissinger!
36 Battery Pl., New York, NY 10280 

Kissinger will be speaking at the Museum of Jewish Heritage to "mark the 70th anniversary of the end of WW II in Europe." Apparently without irony, the Museum is hosting a "Commemoration of the Centennial of the Armenian Genocide."

Join ETAN and other organizations in protesting Kissinger's appearance to demand justice for his many victims.

Come and protest Kissinger's sordid history concerning Timor-Leste (East Timor), West Papua, Viet Nam, Cambodia, Chile, Cyprus, Bangladesh, Angola and elsewhere.

On December 6, 1975, then Secretary of State Kissinger and President Gerald Ford visited Jakarta. At their meeting, Ford gave Indonesia's dictator Suharto an explicit go ahead for the invasion of East Timor and Indonesia invaded the next day. According to East Timor's Commission on Reception, Truth and Reconciliation (CAVR) up to 180,000 died as a direct result of the illegal invasion and occupation. Declassified and leaked documents show that Kissinger understood that Suharto was balking at invading, concerned that the U.S. would cut off its supply of weapons and military training. Kissinger guaranteed continuation of weapons shipments. According to Timor-Leste's Commission for Reception, Truth and Reconciliation as many as 180,000 people died as a result. For more on Kissinger's role in East Timor (Timor-Leste) and West Papua, see here:http://www.etan.org/news/kissinger/default.htm

In addition to ETAN, initial sponsors of the protest include War Criminals Watch and NYC War Resisters League. Let us know if your organization would like to sponsor.
