It's a very interesting article, if you can log in to the NY Times to get to it.

Among the other revelations of these newly released Nixon tapes:

--Nixon told Billy Graham Jews "have a death wish. You know that's been the problem with our Jewish friends for centuries."

--Ronald Reagan told the White House the Saturday Night Massacre (in which Nixon fired the Attorney General and his deputy for refusing to dismiss the special prosecutor looking into Watergate) was "probably the best thing that ever happened"

--Nixon and Chuck Colson discussed granting clemency to E. Howard Hunt for his role in the Watergate break-in

--Nixon told then Secretary of State Kissinger to tell Vietnamese President Thieu he'd "cut off his head if necessary" to get him to sign the agreement ending the war in Vietnam.
