#250: The Kissinger Report | Macroaggressions
Charlie Robinson delves into the controversial National Security Study Memorandum 200 (NSSM 200), commonly known as “The Kissinger Report.” This document was produced in the 1970s under the direction of Henry Kissinger, who served as National Security Advisor at the time.
The United States policy toward the Third World should be that of depopulation, at least according to super villain Henry Kissinger. He has spoken openly about his desire to see population levels reduced by 50%, which means that perhaps we should start by cutting ol’ Heinrich in half.
In December of 1974, The Kissinger Report was created as a classified document to guide the policy of USAID towards depopulating several countries with high population growth rates in order to benefit the United States and the Rockefeller-controlled industries. Through a massive push for reproductive health programs, as well as a secret sterilisation project, the Kissinger team hoped to thin the herd enough so that American interests would be able to continue to exploit foreign countries with weak governments and an abundance of natural resources.
They also thought that nobody else would ever be able to read the document, but now that it has been declassified the whole world is able to read just what America thinks of other nations, and just how far they are willing to go to get what they want.
“They want everybody dead but they can’t just come out and say it.”

NSSM 200
National Security Study Memorandum 200 (NSSM 200), commonly referred to as the “Kissinger Report,” was a significant document produced by the United States National Security Council on December 10, 1974. It was initiated under the direction of then-National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger, following directives from President Richard Nixon. The memorandum focused on the implications of worldwide population growth for U.S. security and overseas interests, particularly in relation to developing nations.
Overview of The Kissinger Report
- Purpose: NSSM 200 was intended to analyse the implications of world population growth on U.S. security and foreign interests. It emphasised that rapid population growth in developing countries posed significant risks to U.S. strategic interests, potentially leading to instability and conflict.
- Key Findings: The report projected that if current fertility rates persisted, the world population could soar from approximately 3.9 billion in 1974 to over 7.8 billion by 2000, and theoretically to 103 billion by 2075. This alarming forecast suggested that unchecked population growth would exacerbate competition for resources and create opportunities for adversarial nations, particularly during the Cold War era.
- Policy Recommendations: The report advocated for a comprehensive U.S. strategy to manage population growth through family planning initiatives and international cooperation, particularly focusing on countries with high growth rates such as India, Bangladesh, and Nigeria. It aimed to promote policies that would stabilise populations while minimising backlash from developing nations.
Controversies Surrounding Kissinger’s Policies
- Criticism: The Kissinger Report has been criticised for its underlying assumptions about population control, which led to coercive practices in various countries. Critics assert that these policies often disregarded human rights and imposed Western values on sovereign nations. For example, it has been linked to support for China’s one-child policy and other aggressive population control measures.
- Legacy: The report’s influence persists in contemporary discussions about population control and international aid, raising ethical questions about the balance between national security interests and human rights. Kissinger’s approach has been described as a form of “realpolitik,” where strategic interests often overshadowed humanitarian considerations.
Conclusion
The Kissinger Report remains a pivotal document in understanding U.S. foreign policy regarding depopulation. Its legacy continues to shape debates over population control strategies, human rights, and international relations today. The podcast episode #250 of Macroaggressions provides an in-depth exploration of these themes, reflecting on the implications of Kissinger’s policies and their relevance in contemporary geopolitics.
