The Nixon regime, beginning with his first election victory and continuing with his re-election four years later, although appearing to signify the 'wind-down' phase of the war, initiated one of the most disturbed periods in US history. With his coterie of right-wing Republican 'hard men' buttressed by the erstwhile 'liberal' Republican Henry Kissinger, he literally poured oil onto the already troubled waters of US society. Kissinger, during the primary election campaigns of 1968, had backed millionaire 'liberal' Republican Governor Nelson Rockefeller of New York. In a well-publicized statement Kissinger declared that Nixon was "unfit to be president". The American people would eventually come to the same conclusion as he was driven from office but after the election Kissinger hitched his wagon to that of Nixon. He had also stated that Nixon was "the most dangerous" of all the candidates running for office in 1968. He had even confessed to "an American diplomat that he would have to abstain" rather than vote for either Nixon or Humphrey (the Democrats' candidate).
Nevertheless, the Democratic liberal establishment believed that Kissinger would act as a check on Nixon: "Excellent... very encouraging," said Arthur Schlesinger. Another declared, "I'll sleep better with Henry Kissinger in Washington." Not many Vietnamese or Cambodians, or for that matter Chileans, would approve of these sentiments. Apart from his dirty work in Vietnam, Cambodia and elsewhere, Kissinger also helped to prepare the overthrow in 1973 of the democratically elected government of socialist Salvador Allende in Chile. He had signified his intentions when Allende was elected in 1970: "I don't see why a country should be allowed to go Communist due to the irresponsibility of its own people." Moreover, when the Shah of Iran asked in 1972 for secret American military aid to be given to Kurdish rebels in Iraq, Kissinger agreed despite objections from CIA agents in Tehran. When the Shah later cuddled up to Iraq, the Kurds were cut off and 35,000 killed and an extra 200,000 refugees created. Kissinger also helped to channel funds to a neo-fascist group in Italy, hoping to harm the Communist Party of Italy as a result.
