Kissinger: Right Man for the Job?



To the Editor: New York Times 11/30/02 President Bush's decision to name former Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger, who spent his entire public career protecting the executive branch from public scrutiny of its actions, to head the 9/11 commission is bitterly ironic (front page, Nov. 28). Perhaps Mr. Kissinger, who oversaw the illegal, secret bombing of Cambodia and acquiesced to Indonesia's 1975 invasion of East Timor is uniquely qualified to investigate the terrorist tragedy of Sept. 11. Not of 2001, however, but of 1973, when the democratically elected government of Salvador Allende in Chile was overthrown by Gen. Augusto Pinochet, a goal Mr. Kissinger had long supported. Now the question is, who will investigate the investigator? BRAD SIMPSON, New York, Nov. 28, 2002
