The worst genocide since the holocaust? I suppose the seventy some million Chinese that Mao liquidated in the 1960's somehow fails to qualify as a true genocide. Unbelievable...
@Hastings791 I agree with you in a way, but the holocaust in Cambodia did wipe out about a quarter of the population. If you look at it that way, there is almost nothing that can compare to it. Ironically, one of the biggest streets in Phnom Penh is Mao Tse Toung Boulevard. Now that's unbelievable. However, like you, I hope that one day Mao will be recognized as the villain that he was.
@Hastings791 Well, the deaths in China were more due to a failed economy policy, whereas the vast amount of deaths in Kampuchea were actual massacres. The systematic and intentional killing of millions, like the Holocaust. I think that is what the meant.

Since they are learning foreign ideas, and it is not from one leaders but from many foreign leaders. One of these could spoil the idea not to save Cambodia but to destroy it. It was very well plan. They knew that Cambodia is rich in culture. There is no real Cambodian leader that has a plan to kill its own people. What you see and hear sometimes is not true, troop is like a band that play to make people see it, but spy who has done most of jobs in order to invade others.
what a scam, they don't even mention the us-supported coup against the king (who then joined the khmer rouge in the jungle) or the American bombing in Cambodia which killd around 600000 Cambodians and destroyed certainly the eastern part of the county. Of course you can't expect CNN to be objective...
yes, but not really, the us didn't just bomb north Vietnamese camps, but whole villages and forests were people were hiding, as they did in laos. And they spend about 1 minute on US crimes and 10 minutes on Khmer rouge crimes...why not start by looking in the mirror?
@dimitrieke3 I see you failed to see any difference between missing a bomb aimed at enemy soldiers and deliberately rounding up a bunch of people and feeding them to crocodiles (one of actual killing methods used by the KR).
The us bombed deliberately whole villages because they taught those villages supported the communists (which was correct).. The khmer Rouge decimated city population because they taght they resented them (which was correct). So in fact the same methods, the same crimes.
@dimitrieke3 "Same methods"? Really? From a recent KR trial:
"The three old men looked impassive when details of cannibalism, torture, disembowelment and beatings were laid out by the Cambodian co-prosecutor, Chea Leang. She said women had their ears and noses torn off, then guards cut out their livers to fry and eat. Toddlers were beaten to death by swinging them against a tamarind tree. A pregnant woman was dropped into the foundations of a bridge and buried alive."
Chhay said, 'In the Khmer Rouge time, the soldiers would take people here and feed them to the crocodiles, so they didn't have to kill them with bamboo spears and dispose of the bodies.
Tan Samay's pupils hanged him. A noose was passed around his neck; then the rope was passed over the branch of a tree. Half a dozen children between eight and ten years old held the loose end of the rope, pulling it sharply three or four times, dropping it in between. All the while they were shouting, "Unfit teacher! Unfit teacher!" until Tan Samay was dead. The worst was that the children took obvious pleasure in killing.
@dimitrieke3 More like anywhere between 5,000-500,000.
Wouldn't happen if not the North Vietnamese occupation of parts of eastern Cambodia, tolerated by Sihanouk, this opportunistic ruthless piece of shit (and he has sided again with the Khmer Rouge also against... the Vietnamese, but later, and already after the genocide).
And of course CNN is objective. And more than that - it was them who invented the hoax of a supposed US "nerve gas attack against defectors in Laos" (Operation Tailwind).
@BAIYUE1 the chinese government supports genocide period. they supported the syrian government killing its own people and they supported the genoicde of the tamil people in Sri Lanka. And im sure a few others genocide that has taken place.
All weapon of Khmer rough came from Chinese. I think when UN is judging Khmer rough leader now, they also need “judge” who behind Khmer rough- Chinese government.
religion or missionary has no effect to transform nations or even their repetitions of prayers because they are spiritually dead, lleaders/kings think that they are going to live long on this planet while death awaits everyone, anyone that kill their own kind is from the influence of demonic witchcraft, the world don't know that satan is dethrone strip off his power of death/sickness/poverty by the King of kings, thanks
Only now you talk about it...maybe because no benefit like drugs,gold, or oil for them to be down there... The french suppose to take care of them...or they only care about the Tax...
@The021773 Not really, about the only positive thing is a lot of world's name brand retailers make a lot of their cloth there and provide some job opportunity for the people there. So instead of shutting themselves off to the world like North Korea, seems like they open their country for some investments and tourism. Angkor Wat is really something to see, pretty amazing.
Those racist Khmer Rouge were the Asian Nazi's. They hated Vietnamese people and they wanted to conquer all of Indochina under Khmer flag. Pol Pot merged Maoism with Khmer nationalism. In just 4 years he killed 1/3 of the Cambodian population. Pol Pot's agerian socialism was a lie, he was a nationalist collectivist who believed in traditional medicine, all modern medicine were banned.

@borninparis ... Give Amanpour credit for doing this story. Pronounciation not important ... My Chinese friend, Sally, born in 1963 in Cambodia, was taken away from her parents by the Khmer Rouge at the age of 12 and put in a slave labor camp for three years. Sally's knees were larger round than her thieghs when she escaped on a perilous 200-mile journey barefoot through the jungles of Cambodia. She came from a weathy Chinese/Cambodian family. Being Chinese, it is a miracle not all killed.
Many of us did not wait for her to learn about Cambodia, yesterday and even today. See, stories like that of your friend, I did not wait for a famous and nicely paid reporter CNN to tell me about it. I think if she had spent time with Khmers, she'd not make the mistake of over-pronouncing a word like she knows. Simplicity and modesty are still valuable qualities.
This dude is player that why he help Ho chi minh for pusssy only. he is killer with polpot ..yes he is killer ..he help polpot to kill our khmera..? he stupid one to make our khmera are loooser and still control by North Ka-Youn. fuck Monic are khmera king or what ..speak khmer please? sun son of bitch...killer now he sing for what ..lol celebrate our khmera will lost in his hand and those who die for his false and now what our Nation Border and Country control by North Ho chi Minh his Friends.?
how can u still talk about god? where was he during all of this? sure wasnt helping these people........id much rather live without brutality than be brutilized then be rewarded with the gift of heaven b.c it makes no sense, people talk about miracles of god occurring everyday, but it seems as though god is using his miracles in the wrong scenarios b.c ppl like this need the most help and theyre not getting any
@dferhadi94 ... The proper attitude toward god is not worship or reverence but sorrow and pity. You should feel sorry for god! God fell asleep, dreamed the world into existence and got lost in his dream. God is not sitting on a chair in the headquarters of the universe. God is living the lives of sentient beings. If god could save himself he would but unfortunately his situation looks hopeless. When you see the victims human cruelty feel sorry for god. God was both the K/R and its victims.
Bosh, you do realize the Americans dropped more bombs on Cambodia then all the bombs dropped in world war 2. That absolutely decimated the country and left a vacuum in which the Khmer Rouge had the opportunity to take power. American foreign policy has had a hugely destructive effect on not only Cambodia but dozens of countries all around the world effecting millions of lives.
usa didnt do nething in cambodia to provoke a french educated tyrant who killed his own people to fulfill his own retarded dream...and if it wasnt for the Vietnamese govt..cambodia wud still be in ruins...blame the evil cambodians who turned against their own ppl...and blame the idiots who supported this evil tyrant..all in all my heart goes out to the people of cambodia n everytime i hear bout the genocide of over 1 million people..i get goosebumps...
If you are interested in learning more about the Khmer Rouge and the Killing Fields, and see interviews with Nuon Chea, Pol Pot's deputy, I suggest Googling 'Enemies of the People' or watch the film's trailer on Youtube
Masters of War reside on each side of this argument. Atrocities stem from economic and political disaster (Stalin in Russia; Hitler post WWI; Mao post 100 yrs of Chinese being embarassed by the west and Japan; Pol Pot post-decades of war in SE Asia; Sudan). Cambodia is extremely poor today. If you truly care about anything past your own idol worship of your country, your politics, and yourself, do Justice in the world. "Who is my neighbor?"..."Go and do likewise"
@espada9 Take your citizen sword n go kill ya self with it cause your just another brainwashed victim of the elite. Just another sheep. If you think the U.S are liberators of the world wait till they chop your head off n rape your people divide and profit off of your peoples resources n miseries. Japan didn't sacrifice 20% of their people but their nation for the same reasons as the Americans sacrifice their people n troops nowadays for resources and control. Cambodia was just a victim like Vie
@PandaExpress1011 Spare me your sick moralizing. I won't even address your inflated moral chagrin. There wouldn't even be an "America" if genocide hadn't been committed. And as we speak, a "genocide" against Aryan women and children is underway the world over, in the guise of "progress" and "equality" on the left and technocratic globalization on the right! Hope you don't awaken from your next sleep.
@PandaExpress1011 I'm not concerned with your Ad Hominems. I'll only address your last point, and I will point out that FDR's Soviet spy-riddled Administration did all it could to push Japan and Germany toward war, in the former case with its ultimatum over Indochina and the latter by uncritically pushing England to go to war and backing the USSR, to say nothing of torpedoing German ships and other acts of provocation.
@PandaExpress1011 And incidentally, it was Britain and France that "started the war" with their war declaration on Sept. 3, 1939. Nothing forced them to do that. The war guarantee to Poland was an empty bluff to deter Germany from reclaiming Danzig and other German territory wrenched from it at Versailles. If Britain and France hadn't declared war, there would have been no war in the West. So spare me your Hollywood propaganda.
@PandaExpress1011 Yes, I am a National-Socialist. And I stand firm that Germany's aspirations were almost entirely confined to the East. Hitler did not want war with Britain or the US. He respected the British Empire and saw it as a force for stability in the world. But for a moment I will indulge your assumption that Germany ruling "half the world" might have been a future possibility. will not, however, indulge your indefensible notion that this would be a bad thing.
@ coolgal185, communism is too good and it's impossible to catch up by human. Do you understand? As long as you care about the money you worked for, shut up and stop talking about communism.
@Najismongolia Without US involvement in World War II, including goading Britain to start and remain in it, there may not have been communist expansion to Southeast Asia. It is not difficult to envision the Third Reich, unrestrained by a war in the West, defeating the Bolshevik tyranny.
The 14 thumbs up about this Video came from Vietnamese People live in U.S. because they can understand English now. They used to live in the camps in Thailand too. Without the Fucking VC War, Cambodia is not going to be like this. You know it Vietgooks.
It was the Vietnam war that SPILL all over Cambodia. It was the Vietnamese who fought the Vietnamese and The N.Viet Congs invaded Cambodia to fight S.Vn. *** U.S helped S.Vn and helped Lon Nol into power to fight the VC inside Cambodia. Then U.S. left Cambodia alone to fight the VC. **Later, Pol Pot was Emerged & was support by VC to fight Lon Nol too. Lon Nol fought on both sides & was defeated.
the c.i.a. was planning for war in vietnam in the 50's and as they report here the u.s. involvment started the madness in cambodia fuk i hate u.s politics anything that has anything to do with c.i.a.
this is 100 % correct.... the world police state fucked up big time .....and it is still happening .... every day .... just look at what s happening in Angola .... Afghanistan ..... but all they care for... Superbowl night .... it s a shame ...
@Artaud1957 I have grasped that your position is even more depraved than I first thought. You have no problem with the communist North Vietnamese effort that set up launch points to attack South Vietnam & U.S. Forces, but when the U.S. reacted by seeking to destroy those launch points you claim the U.S. is the wicked actor. You are a dishonest bastard, & communist sympathizer.
You are a horrid person, one of many forgettable swine that make the grand scope of history such a tragic struggle.
Incredibly, this documentary still tries to blame the U.S. for the obvious viciousness of the Communist Khmer Rouge, as if the KR was NOT corrupt. Perhaps if the Vietnam war was won by America, then the Khmer rouge would NOT have risked such horrific action. The peaceniks likely paved the way for The Killing Fields!
"as if we were prisoners" ....note that bizarre acceptance, where purpose justifies means.
Fight the Left. Fight the Right. Fight for Individual Rights & small government
@Tattdgoose Yes, & apparently the BP oil rig explosion was arranged by Bush, to make Obama look bad! 9/11 was a Bush/Zionist plot to wage war on Islamists. And, so on, ad nauseum.
@RnBramwell Obviously, you do not understand the effects of the US bombing upon Cambodian society. No, the US was not responsible for the KR, but the use of Cambodian territory by the PAVN as a sanctuary and the bombing of Cambodia by the US greatly facilitatied the rise of the KR to power. Do some reading, please.
@Artaud1957 The US bombing did not lead some Cambodians to decide to adopt Pol Pot's politics of rabid communist revolution, and 'cleansing' of capitalists. The same approach arose in most every communist revolution. The US influence is a *non-essential*. Propaganda, raising it to being a causative instrument, is irrational, & typical of leftist hatred of capitalist success. It enabled communists to rise to power last century and kill 100+ million of their own citizens.
@SpraxIAKS It never ceases to amaze me how people seek excuses for *obviously* murderous communist regimes (& their vicious participants) & disregard the ghastly horrors they commit, whilst getting all worked up because U.S. (or Western, if u like) foreign policy screws up. Yes, SpraxlAKS, the West can be stupid, but has nothing, NOTHING, like the deliberate intent of the bastards so many here disregard —their inverted morality earns them the, undeservedly polite, name "apologists".
@SpraxIAKS Those who focus on & criticize the West, despite its *comparatively* trivial role (& however stupid), whilst barely remarking on the horror of the regimes, give the regimes an implicit 'pass'. That 'pass' implies —very commonly, if not in your personal case— that the regimes would not have been so bad were it not for Western interference. The message: "We excuse the regimes, more than the West." Excusing the regimes, whilst castigating the West, IS apologizing for their mistakes.
I sat through q couple of days of Duchs trial this past July in Phnom Penh. It was a show trial. An absurd farce. They would have saved alot of time and grief by taking out to Cheuong Ek at dusk like many others before him. Having lived in the country, I've come to realize EVERYONE there is suffering some form of PTSD, depression,etc. I left my heart there, and it is broken.
My Cousin Once told me, That they would Torture you really badly.. For example.. Cut your neck SLOWLY and Put Salt into the wound... Think about how bad it was..
People only ever want to talk about Jewish suffering and the holocaust and the victims of other atrocities since then are left largely ignored or forgotten.
@DJFG85 well most would see that as a consequence of the location of the crime. the holocaust was a European event, Cambodia, East Timor, Rwanda etc. are not. hence, they aren't given the same attention. it's very unfortunate. a crime is a crime, especially one as heinous as genocide.
@DJFG85 -----------People only ever want to talk about Jewish suffering and the holocaust and the victims of other atrocities since then are left largely ignored or forgotten.---------->Also Israel was very close to the NATO bloc's core powers, especially the US. Not so much Kampuchea.
Even in people 2 people levels if u know influential folk in a society u get a lot more perks, u can buy justice. Same holds true for national affairs as nations are governed by ppl/
That is so sad MrsHomonculus. The cruelty was just so unreal- it's hard to comprehend. And you shouldn't drive your mom crazy. :-) She's been through enough.
Cambodia and the Khmer Rouge were part of the bargain between Nixon/Kissinger and China to get the USA out of Vietnam. The USA and China are equally guilty for this crime.
im greatful that the Veitnamese people came and invaded us. If it was not for that invasion. Who knew how long the Geneside would go on. I cried on how our own race. Killed each other. I hope No Monks were killed.
The USA are just good at fighting against the native indian.Damn pussies they came in Cambodia to fight together against the Viet and after they leave like a white rabbit let us in the terror now they just dont really care dont even help to rebuild our country.Its so sad we Cambodians lost so many intellectual peoples the real Khmer, now what i see is only fake Cambodians mixing viet chinese corruptions speaking khmer.But i wish in 15 years Cambodia will become like before a civilised country.
It was your fellow Cambodians that killed millions of their countrymen. Not the Americans. Yes, America destabilized the region. I know many Cambodians don't want to hear it but it is the Vietnamese who saved the people from the terror of the Khmer Rouge.
@ar4216 well the viets never intend to help cambodia from the khmer rouge.. that what i read on wiki .. they were killing khmer rouge including cambodians of thier revenge of killing their fellow viets.. because they think they were alll bad.. (dont telll me i'm wrong they the wiki if you think soo)
@ar4216 Vietnamese did not intentionally want to save Cambodian, they invaded for their own purposes. They see that Cambodia is very unstable at the time, so therefore it is their perfect opportunity to invade and conquer. The Vietnamese looted Cambodia for the next ten years or so, they set up a puppet government with PM Hun Sen. That is why Cambodia cannot move forward because it's government is tool of Vietnam. PM Hun Sen focus problems with Thailand, while letting Vietnam encroach our land.
@ar4216 The American bombings gave the Khmer rouge rise. Vietnam came to install their puppet regime. With so much chaos going on and Khmer rouge in control who do you follow. You scared for your life so you do what your told. We might of killed our own people but none of this would ever happen if Cambodia was left alone.
@Khm3rWarrior: What a STUPID premise, we bombed Japan into oblivion in WWII but the Japanese didn't slaughter over 20% of their population like you communist drones did. Blame the USA all you want leftist tool but you will be complaining that we didn't help you at the first sign of a natural disaster.
Perhaps you shouldn’t have allowed North Vietnam to use your country to smuggle arms into the South?
@ar4216 not really because the vitenamese where not much nicer they took people ansd killed them but u have a poonit it was mostly the khmer rouge and they kiilled them and made torcher chambers
@ar4216 America indirectly caused it after vietnamese invasion Nixon bombing Cambodia(illegally) to get rid of Vietnamese camps. The funny part here is that the war criminal Henry Kissinger was given a Nobel prize along with Vietnamese president (atleast the viet. pres. had the integrity to refuse it). Today another war criminal Obama(who promised phased withdrawal) has received the prize while thousand civilians die in America's imperialist dream. The tagline is : "WE WILL FORCE YOU 2B FREE"
@phnompenhsoup The only pussy is you and the rest of your 3rd world trash that live in your P.O.S. country. If your fellow Country men could not fight against Pol Pot... too bad !!!!
It`s just like a good Commie to blame someone else, you are truly a Coward !!!
@meyoumovie 3rd world trash? pussy? are you serious? you are such an uneducated and ignorant person. if you have suffered and endured all the pain the Cambodian people have through this regime you would understand. if u haven't noticed the khmer people did not have the resources or support to fight back against the Khmer rouges, please grow up and respect the khmer people. you f*cking coward!
How come there is no mention of CIA sponsoring the Khmer Rouge in this report? The CIA used the Khmer Rouge to fight their war, because they themselves were cowards. In my eyes, they are equally responsible for the killing field.
the disgraceful president of america known as nixon had forced cambodian ppl experiencing the hell on Earth. UN had supported khmer rouge regime for more than 10 years , now , it is supporting khmer rouge trial. Can't someone from UN explain me and my fellowmen about this?Hypocrite .
Support for the Khmer Rouge was was much more a Kissinger thing than a Nixon thing. However, I totally agree that America's penchant for supporting terrible dictators and tyrannical regimes when they perceive it to be in their interests is very bad.
Nixon, later Carter during khmer rouge period were silent. only untill of Pol Pot overthrow under media exposure did they make a token gesture to the refugees. later under Reagan they kept throughout the 80´s well in to the 90´s support for khmer rouge military and un goverment seat. is about in part geopolitics. a key figure to look up would be Zbigniew Brzezinski.
The khmer rouge are in trial waiting to be prosecuted right now as I'm typing. Cambodia is a very peaceful country. Please don't be discourage from watching this video. You will experience a life change once you have visited Cambodia, thats a guarantee!!!
the evil that dwelled in pol pot was released upon his death. it now dwells, according to some, in kim jong ill. it must be quarantined and, destroyed before it escapes again and into some one more influenced by its evil.
CNN was in on it

@The021773 Not really, about the only positive thing is a lot of world's name brand retailers make a lot of their cloth there and provide some job opportunity for the people there. So instead of shutting themselves off to the world like North Korea, seems like they open their country for some investments and tourism. Angkor Wat is really something to see, pretty amazing.

Those racist Khmer Rouge were the Asian Nazi's. They hated Vietnamese people and they wanted to conquer all of Indochina under Khmer flag. Pol Pot merged Maoism with Khmer nationalism. In just 4 years he killed 1/3 of the Cambodian population. Pol Pot's agerian socialism was a lie, he was a nationalist collectivist who believed in traditional medicine, all modern medicine were banned.
Pol Pot, a mad man. NEVER AGAIN.

@borninparis ... Give Amanpour credit for doing this story. Pronounciation not important ... My Chinese friend, Sally, born in 1963 in Cambodia, was taken away from her parents by the Khmer Rouge at the age of 12 and put in a slave labor camp for three years. Sally's knees were larger round than her thieghs when she escaped on a perilous 200-mile journey barefoot through the jungles of Cambodia. She came from a weathy Chinese/Cambodian family. Being Chinese, it is a miracle not all killed.

Many of us did not wait for her to learn about Cambodia, yesterday and even today. See, stories like that of your friend, I did not wait for a famous and nicely paid reporter CNN to tell me about it. I think if she had spent time with Khmers, she'd not make the mistake of over-pronouncing a word like she knows. Simplicity and modesty are still valuable qualities.

@dferhadi94 ... The proper attitude toward god is not worship or reverence but sorrow and pity. You should feel sorry for god! God fell asleep, dreamed the world into existence and got lost in his dream. God is not sitting on a chair in the headquarters of the universe. God is living the lives of sentient beings. If god could save himself he would but unfortunately his situation looks hopeless. When you see the victims human cruelty feel sorry for god. God was both the K/R and its victims.

Bosh, you do realize the Americans dropped more bombs on Cambodia then all the bombs dropped in world war 2. That absolutely decimated the country and left a vacuum in which the Khmer Rouge had the opportunity to take power. American foreign policy has had a hugely destructive effect on not only Cambodia but dozens of countries all around the world effecting millions of lives.

@PandaExpress1011 I'm not concerned with your Ad Hominems. I'll only address your last point, and I will point out that FDR's Soviet spy-riddled Administration did all it could to push Japan and Germany toward war, in the former case with its ultimatum over Indochina and the latter by uncritically pushing England to go to war and backing the USSR, to say nothing of torpedoing German ships and other acts of provocation.
EpidosisBiou 10 months ago
@PandaExpress1011 And incidentally, it was Britain and France that "started the war" with their war declaration on Sept. 3, 1939. Nothing forced them to do that. The war guarantee to Poland was an empty bluff to deter Germany from reclaiming Danzig and other German territory wrenched from it at Versailles. If Britain and France hadn't declared war, there would have been no war in the West. So spare me your Hollywood propaganda.
EpidosisBiou 10 months ago
@PandaExpress1011 Yes, I am a National-Socialist. And I stand firm that Germany's aspirations were almost entirely confined to the East. Hitler did not want war with Britain or the US. He respected the British Empire and saw it as a force for stability in the world. But for a moment I will indulge your assumption that Germany ruling "half the world" might have been a future possibility. will not, however, indulge your indefensible notion that this would be a bad thing.

@Artaud1957 I have grasped that your position is even more depraved than I first thought.

You are a dishonest bastard, & communist sympathizer.
You are a horrid person, one of many forgettable swine that make the grand scope of history such a tragic struggle.

Incredibly, this documentary still tries to blame the U.S. for the obvious viciousness of the Communist Khmer Rouge, as if the KR was NOT corrupt. Perhaps if the Vietnam war was won by America, then the Khmer rouge would NOT have risked such horrific action. The peaceniks likely paved the way for The Killing Fields!

@RnBramwell Obviously, you do not understand the effects of the US bombing upon Cambodian society. No, the US was not responsible for the KR, but the use of Cambodian territory by the PAVN as a sanctuary and the bombing of Cambodia by the US greatly facilitatied the rise of the KR to power. Do some reading, please.
Artaud1957 1 year ago
@Artaud1957 The US bombing did not lead some Cambodians to decide to adopt Pol Pot's politics of rabid communist revolution, and 'cleansing' of capitalists. The same approach arose in most every communist revolution. The US influence is a *non-essential*. Propaganda, raising it to being a causative instrument, is irrational, & typical of leftist hatred of capitalist success. It enabled communists to rise to power last century and kill 100+ million of their own citizens.

@SpraxIAKS Those who focus on & criticize the West, despite its *comparatively* trivial role (& however stupid), whilst barely remarking on the horror of the regimes, give the regimes an implicit 'pass'. That 'pass' implies —very commonly, if not in your personal case— that the regimes would not have been so bad were it not for Western interference. The message: "We excuse the regimes, more than the West." Excusing the regimes, whilst castigating the West, IS apologizing for their mistakes.
