[lbo-talk] Khmer Rouge film reveals horrors

[Mike Ballard]

No doubt was PP was a monster, but the distortions are worse.  Then Douglas 
Pike refers to PP as the "charasmatic leader of peasant revolution" in 1978 
at Vietnam invaded to stop PP's madness.

And the BBC is the morning news staple at KPFT in Houston, a Pacifica 
station, right in drive time.

****************

I think the Viet rulers would not have acted out of psycho-moral compulsion as
much as being irritated at Democratic Kampuchea's (DK) rulers sending Rouge
troops on regular forays across the border into Viet-land--not to mention their
massacres of Viet natives/nationals within DK at that time.
