Actually, I did not watch this video clip. You should think about Vietnam is taking over Cambodia. Khmer Rouge's case is nothing worth in these days. I don't care about Khmer Rouges. Our countries under control by YOUN/Vietnamese government. Can you see it?
Former Khmer Rouge
ÑÂṂ ḄĂÑḤ, ÑÂṂBƠĐÍĂ
Two countries(China and Vietnam)
want to control Cambodia in 1970.
But Vietnam has spread Ho Chi Minh
doctrine to Cambodia since 1929.
She created Khmer Vietminh all over
Cambodia.Please ask old generations
they have known what happened in
20th century.
In 1970,there were three groups:
*A lot of numbers of Khmer Vietminh
in the Cambodia.
*Khmer Rouge,not too many of them
in the jungle;but they mixed with
Khmer Vietminh.
*Sihanoukists,there were many of
them who loved and supported
Sihanouk.They ran to the jungle,
called(ព្រៃម៉ាគី)including Hun Sen.
*Vietcong troops(Sihanouk asked them for help).
Each group had same ideas,but
different goal.Each zone never
listened to corporate one another.
These four groups fought amongst
themselves.
China won and took over Cambodia;
Pol Pot and China reigned 3years
3 months,and 20 days in Khmer Rouge
regime.
Did Khmer kill Khmer or Vietnam kill Khmer?Or...?
this caster cannot even say Khmer Rouge leader's name correctly. the closely correct name saying is Noorn jia, not nu-ahn Chhia. Ieng sary, not yeng sary-
While acknowledging the mass atrocities committed by the Khmer Rouge regime, we should never forget the level of atrocities committed during the US secretive bombing of Cambodia from 1968-1973. A declassified telephone discussion between Henry Kissinger and General Alexander Haig, Nixon's deputy assistant for national security affairs, recorded that Nixon had ordered a “massive bombing campaign in Cambodia [to use] anything that flys [sic] on anything that moves”.
The map of US bombing targets released by Yale University’s Cambodian Genocide Program shows that more than half of the country was affected by the indiscriminate bombings. Professor Ben Kierman, director of the program, puts the casualties figure from the bombing at 150,000 deaths, while Edward Herman, a professor of Wharton School, and Noam Chomsky put the toll at 600,000 using figures provided by a Finnish Commission of Inquiry.
Based on this, we can never naively claim that US bombing led to the mass executions by the Khmer Rouge or refuted the regime's mass atrocities. But, to certain extent, the blanket bombing, which directly led to the destruction of livestock and agricultural land, could have definitely played a role in the mass starvation.
From new data released during the Clinton administration, Taylor Owen, a doctoral student at Oxford University, and Professor Kierman noted that 2,756,941 tons of bombs were dropped on Cambodia.
To put the figure into perspective, just over 2 million tons of bombs were dropped by the allies during all of World War II. The bombs dropped in Cambodia represented about 184 Hiroshima atomic bombs combined, making Cambodia the most bombed nation in the world. Based on the new data, Professor Kierman also stressed that the casualties might be much higher than his earlier predicted 150,000.
Based on this, the bombing contributed to the rise of the Khmer Rouge. The number of Khmer Rouge cadres rose from a group that had an insignificant prospect ousting the US-backed Lon Nol’s regime, roughly from 1,000 in 1969 to 220,000 in 1973.
Dear 2:20 I agree with your comment and anoter commnent on this KI-Media a few day a go.
These 2 comments really reflect the real danger of our country as follow:
1. 2:20 AM ' s comment:
Our countries under control by YOUN/Vietnamese government. Can you see it?
2. Another comment on this KI-Media a few days ago:
Khmer must worry about Cambodia being swallow by yuon Hanoi.
I respect and value these 2 commnets very much as a Khmer.
Khmer love Khmer.
Ta Mok said before he passed away in his video interview with foreign reporter ( this video is available in Australia, US , France ) in Khmer videos shops.
Ta Mok said as follow :
Angkar between 1975-1979 are :
1. Pol Pot. ( number 1 ).
2. Nuon Chea ( number 2 ).
3. Ieng Sary ( number 3 ).
4. So Phin ( number 4 ) So Phin was a Khmer Viet Minh as Chan Si , Pen but So Phin was a high senior Khmer Viet Minh.
5. Son Sen ( number 5 ).
6. Ta Mok.
So Khieu Samphan, Sihanouk , Hu Nim and Hou Youn are nominal leaders of Democratic Kampuchea.
Why Khieu Samphan , Hu Nim and Hou Youn willing to be norminal leaders of Khmer Rouge ?
My anwers is after the 3 escaped from Sihanouk arrest one after another in 1967 to the countryside they saw Viet Congs everywhere deep inside Cambodia.
Pol Pot wanted to get rid of these Viet Minh and Viet Cong so to get Khmer support from both city and countryside to join Pol Pot or better known as Communist Party of Kampuchea to expell these Viet Minh and Viet Congs out of Cambodia.
Note: After 1970s Viet Congs controled 2 of 3 parts of Cambodia.
The real reason that I bring this up I just want to remind the real danger of Viet Min , Viet Congs known as Indochina Federation.
So I leave my last question to share answers with all Khmer who want to do so.
Why after 1970s youn Viet Cong were forced to withdraw out of Cambodia 2 of 3 part of the whole conutry?
