Justice must be for all not just for the brother of this white man.
How about other 70.000 innocents Khmer people, who were died by the US bombs during Vietnam war.

Will some white men also think about those Khmer people.

I love PhD, Dr. Hun Sen for saving my families from Pol Pot regime. I remember at 1979 in my village, Angka has dout to anyone in the village than order to bring my uncles, me to study (Study in pol pot time is kill). We run out the village at night and then we meet Vietnamese army they gave some foods and medicines to heal my wound and my eyes.

I can't believe that why does pol pot regime want to eliminate all Khmer people than bring Chinese to fill up Cambodia?

Without 7 January I and my family die already. I love you PhD, Dr. Hun Sen and 7 January.

Yes, because of January 7, PhD (Pile Higher & Deeper) Dr. Samdech Decho God (doG) Hun Sen has the rights to OWN Cambodia and do whatever he wants to his "properties." Because we belong to him and his master youn who made January 7 possible.

We are very happy to be doG's slaves and youn's slaves.

hell, politics exchange hands as for HUN SEN. I already arrange a deadly assault on him with my "Protoss" friends. They will cause havoc on middle Earth and create heavy damage to Cambodia by weather. Take that "Air BOMBARDMENT" directly from "PROTOSS MOTHERSHIP." I already told them that HUN SEN OWE ME MONEY AND HE DOES NOT COME IN "PEACE".MY PERSONAL ALLIANCE WITH THE "ALIENS" will take effect now.

BOW DOWN AND SURRENDER "HUN SEN" and MINIONS" or else total destruction will consume CAMBODIA.

2:53, get off your ass and fight for the justice you want for your family than expend this energy on the stupid racist rant. this "white man" is doing what he needs to do for the loving memory of his brother. stop with the stupid reactionary racism and put your anger into constructive action.

agree with 2:53 and disagree with 11:03.

Rob Hamill is in the same category as Theary Seng, shameless, selfish individuums who consider that they are entitled to priority justice and have no respect for the real Khmer victims.

everyone wants justice, what happened in cambodia under the KR cannot be allowed to happen again and should not be tolerated and forgotten, regardless of whatever lame excuses people may have, really! it was very unacceptable in the name fo justice, peace, fairness, the rule of law, etc, etc... god bless all.
