Pol Pot was the driving force behind the Khmer Rouge and their
genocidal actions in Cambodia in the 70's. His rise to power was
pretty much coincidental with the US leaving Viet Nam.

Moreover, following the ouster of Pol Pot by the Vietnamese
in December 1978, Pol Pot's forces found a safe haven in
Thailand, a U.S. client state, and for the next 15 years or
more were aided and protected there by Thai, Chinese,
British, and U.S. authorities.

The U.S. backed Pol Pot's retention of Cambodia's seat in
the UN after his ouster. This support was designed to hurt
Vietnam, which had occupied Cambodia and installed friendly
Hun Sen government in place of Pol Pot. When Vietnam sought
a settlement in the late 1980s, the U.S. insisted
strenuously that Pol Pot be included in the "peace process"
with "the same rights, freedoms and opportunities" as any
other party. In anticipation of a settlement, in the early
l990s the U.S. and its allies not only protected Pol Pot's
forces from defeat by the Cambodian army, they helped him
rebuild his strength and standing. During this
period, the U.S. (and UN) refused to allow the Pol Pot
regime to be referred to as genocidal. In order to oust the
Vietnam-supported government, the U.S. strove to preserve
Pol Pot and make him a significant force in the political
struggle in Cambodia.

Maybe you'd like to tell everyone why your wife left you....

Cause I've never been married?

You might want to check out your own posts on Google before taking that
position....

Either you were lying then or you're lying now.

Do you want me to post your statement of several years ago or do you want to
amend your statement for more wiggle room?

Show me Fat Boy.

Wiggle your ass...

Wrong, wrong, wrong!!

I had forgotten that in Kentucky if one claims to be married to an inanimate object
folks will actually believe you!

But if that is indeed the case, then Bryant is still incorrect (as always) because
'my wife' (the R7) has not left me!

Still waiting Fat Boy...

Those 'power searches' don't take very long!

Gee, being without a job seems to make you impatient, Steve. I, on the other
hand, have a job. I don't plan my days around fighting with you, Rude Boy.

Why bother posting anything? I know you'll just try to wiggle out of your lies
and denials like you did on the Pol Po issuet. A lot of folks are still
snickering at you on that one, Steve. Why don't you tell us exactly what you
did do in the military, Steve. Would you like to see what you've claimed in the
past? It will cause some tension with recent posts....

Still waiting for your post Fat Boy.

Wiping the floor with your ass Fat Boy as you haven't posted the facts to
back up your claims.

Can't wait until your next drug inspired response!

SMHL,

The Emerald Isle (Ireland) is 'beside' the Island of England.

RHF,

Yes, yes, I well understand the orientation of Ireland to England, Wales,
Scotland (or, if you prefer, that septic, errr, sceptered isle). I was
*attempting* to be farcical by (a) misspelling the name Ireland, and (b)
incorrectly positioning the island.

I'll have to choose Opera Buffo next time around.

One again the Fat Boy insinuates that no one else has a life but him.

It boggles the mind!
