Wasn’t this guy awarded some kind of Nobel prize for peace or something?

Yes. After one of the genocides he helped enable but before the other genocides he went on to help enable.

He's not the only genocidaire to get the Nobel Peace Prize but he's probably the most egregiously evil of them.

Also the North Vietnamese counter part Lê Đức Thọ did not accept the prize as his country still didnt see peace.

So Kissinger received the peace prize for a non existing peace.

It was controversial even at the time.
