Why did Pol Pot eradicate 2 million Cambodians who were on the Pro-American side? Because America's bomb campaign in Cambodia hit the wrong towns and killed millions of innocent civilians during the war.

You're blaming Pol Pot's atrocities on... American bombs?

Wow, just wow. That dude was way up there on the batshit-crazy list. Nothing anyone did or didn't do would have change anything about that guy. He, like Stalin and Hitler, was just a bad guy. They exist, you know.

I've been to Cambodia, relatively recently.  I've seen the mass graves, spoken to some Cambodians about the atrocities.  They do NOT believe that Pol Pot was what he was because of America.  Phoenix is either blissfully naive or willing to say anything to justify getting out of consideration for the draft too himself.

Prove you were there. Provide pictures, dates, and other such information because I think it's clear that you're lying.

Regardless, yes Pol Pot had an obvious psychological issue but you completely missed the point that Pol Pot was supported because America was the one bombing civilian areas illegally, America supported a dictator that was little better than Pol Pot, and America wasn't supporting the establishment of a democracy.

You know what? I'll stop now. All I'm getting are insults toward my character without anyone actually making an argument against anything I've specified regarding war using actual facts.
