IN a propaganda statement released shortly after the takeover, one of the first lines read, "The morality of the cities under Lon Nol was not pure and clean like in the liberated areas." 17 April 1975 was the day in which the Yuon secret agents known as Vietcong gained victory over the Lon Nol Army. The Young Mysterious Murderous Vietnamese Soldiers of Men-In-Black successfully captured the city of Phnom Penh and broadcasted their victory throughout the country of Cambodia. The Lon Nol army dropped their weapons and ceased fighting. After a few hours of sporadic gunfire, a group of Khmer Rouge regulars enters the city. Several civilians go out to meet them waving white flags.
Moments later, at a street corner off Monivong, government soldiers surrender their arms under the watchful eyes of the victors. Throughout the day, Khmer Rouge regular forces dressed in black collected weapons from Lon Nol soldiers who had retreated into the city during the closing hours of the war. Rifles are left piled up on many streets corners.
17 April 1975 was the day the people of Cambodia escaped from the American imperialists. It was also the day in which the country of Cambodia fell into the tragedy of genocide, a tragedy we ought to be fearful and shocked by. Cambodia was under the absolute rule of a certain regime called the Democratic Kampuchea regime only on International Level but in the countryside both Base People and New People only knew the notorious name of the murderous Angkar Leur/Cap Tren everywhere. This regime implemented many insane policies of genocide and of execution of innocent Khmer people including workers, farmers, traders, civil officers, policemen, and all kinds of soldiers. In the history of Cambodia, nearly 2 million were killed miserably, without justice, and without mercy in the infamous name of the murderous Angkar Leur/Cap Tren who secretly gave Genocidal Order to Krom Khiet Kar Aat Kambang/ Mysterious Group of Murderers were all Yuon nationals, who could speak, write and read Khmer much better than 85-90 Khmer peasants who can't even read and write their own language, have tactfully masqueraded themselves among the super-illiterate-ignorant Khmer Rouge yotheas as the secret leaders. There is no other race on this planet can commit evil-dirty criminal pogrom against Khmers like Yuons can is still perfectly to have hidden its secret faces from the outside world. Our enemies used their sentences exactly and carefully in Vietnamese: chia re di cai tri, meaning "to divide and rule".
Why did Angkar Leur/Cap Tren brutally order the Young Mysterious Murderous Soldiers of Men-In-Black to kill all Nol Lon's soldiers just like that? There was a saying of Khmer Victims of Angkar Leur/Cap Tren: Long live to Samdech Euv! (God-king named Prince Norodom Sihanouk) if anyone goes who will be disappeared; if anyone doesn't go who will be safe! What does it mean? Angkar Leur deceived Lon Nol's soldiers to disarm and go to Phnom Penh to welcome Prince Norodom Sihanouk coming home from China. This phrase seemed to clearly warn to Lon Nol's soldiers who should have not gone to welcome Prince Norodom Sihanouk in Phnom Penh because if some of us went there would be brutally slaughtered on the spot in the bush. According to Yiey Tien's witness: After all Nol Lon's soldiers rounded up in Battambang, who were so happy going to welcome Prince Sihanouk coming home back from China, were brutally intercepted to be butchered by the Young Mysterious Murderous Soldiers of Men-In-Black in the jungles who were always hiding the jungles to kill Khmer men.
Once more, the black Book reverses the situation. In 1970, the Vietnamese on the contrary increased their support for the Kampuchean Communists and played a capital role in the elimination of the army of Lon Nol. It had constrained the Americans to leave. Two million enemies of the revolution had been dispersed in the campaigns. The "agents of the CIA" and the "puppets of the Americans" hiding among them had been liquidated or at least reduced to the impotence.
In May 1975, in Battambang, more than one hundred officers of the republican army accepted the order or prepare with the return of Sihanouk. One made them get into trucks which brought them in open country, where they had passed by the weapons. Many civil servants of the Khmer Republic, and even of privates, knew the same fate. In all the areas, in particular to the east of the country, thousands of former officials and officers spent mre than one year in prison. The communist leaders also had other concerns. The army of the Khmer rouges, for example, remained divided into regional groups, without centralized command. Members of the Lon Nol government, public servants, police, military officers, teachers, members of the middle-class and the educated are identified and executed on the spot.
Interesting, yet chilling footage. I wonder how many of the Cambodian soldiers shown in the film were massacred after the Khmer Rouge takeover. Pol Pot and his gang were true genocidal monsters.

Hello, I´m peruvian, I have read that Lon Nol was also a genocide, very seemed to Suharto.
In 1965 Pol Pot was in Peking, observing the slaughter of not less than a million of PKI members in Indonesia.
I wonder if there´s a link between indonesian genocide, USA "Secret" bombings in Cambodia (200-600,000 deadths) and the Pol Pots genocide in 1979.
