Slaughter in Cambodia draws U.S. scrutiny
The piece argues Americans remain uninformed about Cambodia after the 1975 Communist takeover while The New York Times reports mass killings reaching as high as 1.2 million. It cites Holbrooke’s testimony, discusses the Khmer Rouge’s purges, cultural destruction, and criticizes U.S. leaders and public figures for indifference.
