Communism is the worst thing that could happen to the world. Incredible that, despite many attempts and 100 million people killed there are still people who want to pursue the ideas of Marx, Engels, Lenin and other instigators of the devil. Pure insane.
Pol Pot claimed he had no idea it was so bad at S-21. I believed him. He set the tone of the Communist Revolution then let the Khmer Rouge run wild. He couldn't know what his soldiers and leaders were doing all over the country, but he was still responsible.
Like the Germans that killed Jews en mass, the Khmer soldiers are still around. The difference is, some hold high office in the Kingdom of Cambodia. They know well how evil arises. I pray they defend good now.
We will not forget all these poor people that suffered by the idiotic ideology of a man sick of power, no more cremer rouge, no more pol pot no more never again
@TheJeanmarien Horrors committed by Commies have been hidden from the general public, the horrors allegedly committed by the Nazis were mostly war time propaganda
@dapard They were kept in ghettos where they lived before Germany invaded Poland. They died mostly of starvation and disease in overcrowded detention camps in Poland and Germany. I do not believe in gas chambers and I do not believe in mass executions like the alleged "Babi Jar Massacre". Also I do not believe in the claim that Germany started WW 2, as was proven by David Irving for example. For more on this: /watch?v=XaxV4hEwP_g
If you do not believe in Germany's gaschambers recognized by the whole civilized world, try to come to museum in Oswięcim (Auschwitz). Maybe when you go through the gate with the inscription "Arbeit Macht Frei" y'll feel this millions of souls. Try.
@oa0E Hahahaah, went there a few times. Also Dachau and Buchenwald, just like all the noteworthy revisionists did. Auschwitz is interesting, especially the so called "gas chamber" which is just an old bunker used as a morgue. /watch?v=lLh_QHDqCOM
@oa0E Lame ass excuse for not watching the video I posted and thinking about the facts presented there. You chicken away from any serious debate like most people do. Keep drinking the koolaid.
'I recall reading about this back in the 70's, I pray that a situation like this never happen again . like all other genosides , " Lest we forget "' Unfortunately this is still happening in North Korea. And in other countries as well but then on a smaller scale(Iran, Myanmar, etc, etc). As we are sitting here these things are still going on in some parts of the world. We will probably become aware of that within a few years or decades.This behaviour is inherent to mankind
The United Nations is a worthless shit organization leeching of humanity and doing nothing to stop atrocity because they are weak and do not have the power and money.
I am curious to know of any Asian culture that isn't steeped, at some point in its history, in bloodlust, torture, and militarism. 4 out of 5 communist governments that still exist are in Asia.
@canadianroot.very true.the only safe places on earth are capitalist countries.the rest are in chaos or collapsing
this world has 3 huges diseases:communism,socialism,islam.with others evil but less influential ideology like;anarchy,far right,far left.i believe black people,asians and dark skinned and more likely to become involve with the ideology i mentioned above.it is a fact across the world.
"Demographer Marek Sliwinski's studies indicate that American bombing killed about 40,000 Khmer Rouge fighters and Cambodian civilians from 1970-5, and that the Khmer Rouge killed at least 1.8 million civilians from 1975-9.”
"The US Seventh Air Force argued that the bombing prevented the fall of Phnom Penh in 1973 by killing 16,000 of 25,500 Khmer Rouge fighters besieging the city."
1 week ago "Documents uncovered from the Soviet archives after 1991 reveal that the North Vietnamese invasion of Cambodia in 1970 was launched at the explicit request of the Khmer Rouge and negotiated by Pol Pot's then second in command, Nuon Chea."
God got it wrong. HE should have made it that we feel the physical pain we intentionally inflict on others. The world would have been a much nicer place.
Henry Kissinger and CCP were very much involved in Laos bombings and massacre of Cambodian people. They were obviously pulling behind Pol Pot..Kissinger´s memorandums with China are now accebible to the public.
All of those POS hippies who protested our support of the original Cambodian government are accomplices to this mass murder. Including that bitch Jane Fonda. The blood of countless little children covers their hands forever.
May they suffer every ounce of misery that they so richly deserve.
Times are a changing. Europe, Canada, and now the USA are fully of crazy commie bastards. They will justify any atrocity for the "greater good". Even killing the "greater majority".
I suppose they were targeted simply for being the children of upper class persons. They did not want them getting the chance to avenge their parents and relatives.
The monsters only care about power. Anyone who stands in the way of their POWER is already guilty.
No matter what the motivation for killing is-it's always been the same on earth ,civilisations prosper and decay- killing in this way seems to be the fabric of human evolution-I'm ashamed to be called a 'man'(civilised)-what a joke- there is absolutly no doubt what so ever that this form of killing-evolution will continue. How long will mankind follow this path of destruction ? everything has an expiry date it seems-Governments and money makers hide the truth from nations-UN- what a joke.
I dont get it when people says that the country and the people sucks.. Its not their fault its the leaders of that nations fault the people in that nation is just manipulated and brainwashed to think in their ways
i find fascinating the teenage perpetrators of these crimes. 15 year old boys and girl who became psychopaths, addicted to rape and torture. many of them must still be alive today, demons in human skin. i wonder how they live their lives now.
Mass murder is incumbent in fundamentalist communist tyrannies. Pol Pot was trying to build a "New Socialist Man" and purge Cambodia of any remnants of the old ways.
He was on record as saying that even if they murdered 80 percent of the people to build his new socialist man, it would be worth it.
The Nazis murdered people based on their race and ethnicity. The Communist do it based on their economic class. Of course, many others are murdered in the process as well.
They are probably planning a world domination catastrophic genocide right under our noses, behind our backs & because they have hearts of stones & are brainwashed, they probably want to bring the world down with them. How many times has America told North Korea to stop threatening with nukes! THey don't care & I pray they won't but they'll probably have a high intelligent plan to destroy anyone who's not communist!!! Ok I'm going to far but it could be a reality. Don't mean to scare anyone!
The communists are the most cruel, torturous, evil inhumane race on earth...in Singapore & here in Melbourne there was people in the city causing awareness about "Falung Gong", in Vietnam & Cambodia they got affected to with the civil wars & wars. Northern Vietnam & northern Korea are Communists regions. North Korea have top secret nuclear weapons that everyone knows about...Communists want to rule...I'm freaking out North Korea are allies with Al Qaeda I reckon they want to rule the world...
Fucking evil People !!! All KR Armies should burn in hell and be turned into satan's men !!! Heck, even satan would be threatened of their evilness !!!
It was inevitable that something like the Khmer Rouge would eventually run out of steam.
Their stupid fantasy of suppressing education and learning and free thinking would eventually lead to a society that would no longer be able to grow and sustain itself.
What I don't understand is why the Cambodian people did not see this idiotic system for what it was and rebel against this asshole Pol Pot.
How could so many people be duped by such ridiculous ideas? I should read about Pol Pot more.
oh ok it wasnt u but we all brother in the same lords ,hopefully u could come to
malaysia one day or in future,
but still im thankful for u for uploading this chilling stroy i wish i could come there to in future,there too sad and chill stories abut the KR (KHAMER ROUGE) under pol pot...may thier soul rest in peace.
it's REALL HOROR!!!!! THE ARMY OR SOLDIER HOLDING THE BABY AND TOSS OR HIT TOWARDS THE COCONUT TREE IN REALL EVIL, THAT SOLDIER SHLL NOT BORN INTO THIS WORLD,FUCK U SHITTS U EVIL SOLDIER..
i actually got tears in my eyes when i visited s-21 and read some of the stories and looked at the photos and the torture equipment.. cambodia is a fascinating place full amazing people.. i have great respect for the khmers who have witnessed such horrors but still have the biggest smiles you will ever see
I went through those horrible, horrible years and do not wish it upon my worst enemy. I just can't open my mouth and say "Khmer Pride" after the genocide.
Certainly there is nothing wrong with how you feel. I've never ever fail to tell people that I'm khmer if ask, but I just don't beat my chest and scream out "Khmer Pride." There is absolutely nothing wrong with being khmer, it's our past is what I've trouble with at times. I care for our country and it's people but I can't deny the fact that we have an awful past. Khmer people suffer so much cuz of incompetent leaders. We are being use and abuse by everybody through out history and
Communism is in its purest form, the final solution, but what this man did has nothin do with Communism at all. Why do so many idiots (Stalin, Mao, Polpot, Pinochet, Castro) misconstrue the works of the brilliant Karl Marx??
The behavior of the KRs was not unanticipated. Foreign journalists in Cambodia during the Civil War (1970-1975) heard increasingly frequent stories from escapees of barbaric treatment by the KR in the "liberated areas" under their control. Why didn't we all do more to help? You tell me. Look at Darfur today. We all seem to care so much about this, but no state agent really puts their money where their mouths are and stops this shit, do they? Cambodia was simply in this same position.
Some of you question why didn't anybody pay any attention...well, there were some in the West who went around with signs that said "Hands off Democratic Kampuchea!" DK was the govt of Pol Pot/Ieng Sary. The only ones who could intervene were the Vietnamese, the USA (who didn't want anything anymore to do with this disaster that was partly their creation), and the cynical French, who could likewise care less. China was DK's ally. The Cambodians were fresh out of friends who had money/cared.
every time when I see this video, I get pissed off because during that time, the Americans during the Nixon era help fight the vietnam war for 11 years and then help started the war in Cambodia which the khmer King wanted to be a neutral country. Right after the American troops withdral from vietnam, the Cambodian were slaugher like animal and know one around the world did not do anything about it.
It's seemed as if the entire world had forgotten about us during the khmer rouge era,and what happened to the U.N ? where were they ? it's seemed like the entire closed it's eye on Cambodia,we were being slaughtered like sheeps and cattles,where is the humanity in world ?
Thanks for the correction, I didn't mean that this was the only place where this happened. I meant for this video to give a window into the cruelty suffered at that time at the hands of those in power.
