NEW YORK – Israel's "special relationship" with the United States, so often cited during Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's recent U.S. visit, may not have always been so special, according to declassified White House documents.

References to the controversial file were featured in a recent editorial in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.

The transcripts cover some of the waning days of the Nixon administration and the 18 months of the Ford administration when Secretary of State Henry Kissinger directed U.S. foreign policy.

While it was never a secret that Kissinger had problems with several Israeli governments, the depth of antagonism was never as clearly illustrated as in the previously secret documents, copies of which were obtained by WND.

In the papers, Kissinger refers to then–Israeli Defense Minister Shimon Peres, currently Israel's president, as a "liar."

He refers to the Syrians as "my friends."

He notably states that a fifth Arab-Israeli war might not be so bad for Washington and the Arabs.

WND attempted to obtain reaction from those mentioned in the White House papers.

Kissinger is now the member of council for foreign relations, the bilderberg group, he is the globalist elite.

he was the architect of a useless war that resulted in over 5,000,000 deaths. :(

That said, I agree with him in this context (except for the part about the Syrians).

The guy was an artful politician. Afterall wasn't it he who came up with the famous "Diplomacy: the art of restraining power" quote? However amazing that he spoke of Shimon Peres in that manner. He must have some guts..or connections!

"Kissinger, it was reported, was fearful of an intervention by the Soviet Union if Sharon moved on Cairo."

I wish if the USSR had intervened , just like in 1956.

Kissinger is a true politician.. Tacking and weaving depending on the wind :O)

He was involved in organising the coup against Salvador Allende. He influenced Nixon in the saturation bombing of Hanoi and Haiphong, yet won a Nobel Peace Prize.

He set up Kissinger Associates and has been "advising" governments ever since..

Given a free hand, he would have bombed out the entire middle east. The man was a crazy lunatic drunk with power.

Well, generally speaking, I worship at the alter of Henry Kissinger. That whole "crimes against humanity" thing was so over-rated!
