Henry Kissinger: Soviet Agent

Frank Capell, a conservative Roman Catholic, was one of the great right-wing, investigative journalists of the 60s and 70s of the John Birch Club school of patriotic expose journalism. He served as the editor of the Herald Of Freedom (an infamous, anti-communist/ultra-patriotic newsletter published in New Jersey) and wrote nine books and several pamphlets on the communist conspiracy especially as it pertained to American politics and what we now call "the Deep State." Henry Kissinger: Soviet Agent, published in 1974, is a classic work of anti-communist investigative journalism of this era. Kissinger was a favorite target of Capell, who wrote several books about communist infiltration of the State Department and the dangers posed by the global government crowd. As such, Kissinger was fair game. And the revelations in this book, viewed through 20-20 hindsight, seem less farfetched today for those of us who have studied such things. Kissinger was, as Capell rightly points out, a largely unknown figure to the general public when he was selected to be Secretary of State under Nixon. As a Harvard professor with a large rolodex of personal friends among the globalist crowd of elites, Kissinger played Colonel House to Nixon's Woodrow Wilson. When the scandal of Watergate broke, Kissinger, along with his partner in conspiracy, Alexander Haig, escaped scrutiny--one of the few on Nixon's staff who did. This is because Kissinger had friends in high places--higher than even the US President--people in the Rockefeller/Rothschild rarefied realm of global elitism. He also played the role of meek, well-intentioned academic with a thick European accent brilliantly. Capell rightly points out (in 1974) that Kissinger's diplomatic strategy (better known as détente) of making huge concessions to opponents while delivering large pallets of US taxpayer funds to their bank accounts would eventually bankrupt the US treasury, weaken our resolve to fight, and embolden our enemies--all the while making him look like the prince of peace to those who were enamored of his dubious diplomatic "successes." This is a very good book. Well-written, making allegations based on research, not hearsay. Capell was a thorn in the side of mainstream journalism, left-wing academics, moderates and liberals. Many of his assertions and predictions have proven true. In this regard, he is a classic conspiracy theorist, accused of wearing a tinfoil hat in the 1970s, now proven prescient in the age of Internet skepticism. This is not the work of a hateful fringe manifesto writer sitting in a bunker in rural Idaho. Capell was a man who was seriously concerned about the Washington DC elites and the direction they were taking American society. Highly recommended for truth-seekers and conspiracy researchers. But should be read by all who can find a copy.
