When calm is returned I think people will under-\nstand, though.\nG: I got another message\nNick Thimmesh has been saying somebody\nfrom the State Department is saying Kissinger believes that the New\nYork Times and the Washington Post have decided to make a concentrated\ndecision to destroy him.\nK: I don't know what State Department people are saying.
