Khmer Rouge , name given to
native Cambodian Communists. Khmer Rouge soldiers, aided by North Vietnamese and Viet Cong troops, began a large-scale insurgency against government forces in 1970, quickly gaining control over more than two thirds of the country.
The strength of the Khmer Rouge rose dramatically from around 3,000 in 1970 to more than 30,000 in 1973, enabling most of the North Vietnamese and Viet Cong troops to withdraw. In 1975 the movement, led by Pol Pot, overthrew the Cambodian government, establishing “Democratic Kampuchea.”
The new government carried out a radical program of evacuating cities, closing schools and factories, and herding the population into collective farms. Intellectuals and skilled workers were assassinated, and a total of perhaps as many as 1.5 million died, inclusive of starvation and forced marches.
Thank you John F'in Kerry.
The Khmer Rouge was also responsible for those mountains of bones--human bones--documented in some stills and video footage, but seldom shown on any of the networks. If Kerry was helping them, he's guilty of much more than can be punished by mere humans. (A much higher Judge will have to do that.)
