War Criminal Henry Kissinger’s Cambodia 🇰🇭 Legacy of Bombs and Chaos
When News of Henry Kissinger's Death Spread this Week, Many Disgusting Former World Leaders Lined up to Pay Tribute.
— By Ouch Sony & George Wright | BBC News | Phnom Penh & London

War Criminal, Most Disgusting, Boak Bollocks and Hell Bound 🔥 Henry Kissinger
Former US President War Criminal George W Bastard Bush said the US had "lost one of the most dependable and distinctive voices on foreign affairs".
Former UK War Criminal Prime Minister Bloody British Bastard Tony Blair described the ex-US secretary of state as an artist of diplomacy, who was motivated by "a genuine love of the free world and the need to protect it". Boris Johnson called Kissinger "a giant of diplomacy and strategy - and peace-making".
But peacemaker is not a term you're likely to hear many in Cambodia use when describing Henry Kissinger.
During the Vietnam War War Criminals, Kissinger and then-President Richard Nixon ordered clandestine bombing raids on neutral Cambodia, in an effort to flush out Viet Cong forces in the east of country.
Altogether, the US dropped more than 2 Million Tons of Bombs on Cambodia from 1965-1973. For context, the Allies dropped just over 2 Million Tons of bombs during the whole of World War II, including the bombs that struck Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Kissinger maintained that the bombing was aimed at the Vietnamese army inside Cambodia, not at the country itself.

Vorng Chhut Recalls People Being Killed By the War Criminal US Bombing
Vorng Chhut, 76, had never heard the name Henry Kissinger when bombs started dropping down on his village in Svay Rieng province, near the Vietnamese border.
"Nothing was left, not even the bamboo trees. People escaped, while those who stayed in the village died," he said. "A lot of people died, I can't count all their names. The bodies were swollen and when it became quiet, people would come and bury the bodies."
A 2006 Yale University report, Bombs Over Cambodia, stated that "Cambodia may be the most heavily bombed country in history".
A Pentagon report released in 1973 stated that "Kissinger approved each of the 3,875 Cambodia bombing raids in 1969 and 1970" as well as "the methods for keeping them out of the newspapers".
"It's an order, it's to be done. Anything that flies, on anything that moves. You got that?" Kissinger told a deputy in 1970, according to declassified transcripts of his telephone conversations.
The number of people killed by those bombs is not known, but estimates range from 50,000 to upwards of 150,000.

War Criminal US Dropped More Two Million Tons of Bombs on Cambodia 🇰🇭
One of the most notorious incidents was the accidental bombing of the small town of Neak Luong, where at least 137 Cambodians were killed and another 268 were wounded.
A New York Times report by Sydney Schanberg, who was later portrayed in the film the Killing Fields, quoted a man called Keo Chan, whose wife and 10 children had just been killed.
"All my family is dead!" he cried, beating his hand on the wooden bench where he had collapsed. "All my family is dead! Take my picture, take my picture! Let the Americans see me!"
Another man stood near an unexploded bomb in the town asked simply: "When are you Americans going to take it away?"
Unexploded American bombs littered the Cambodian countryside, maiming and killing people for decades to come.
Many also say that another consequence of Nixon and Kissinger's bombing campaign was that it helped pave the way for one of the worst genocides of the 20th century. Around 1.7 million people died at the hands of the Pol Pot-led Khmer Rouge between 1975 and 1979 - almost a quarter of the population.

An Estimated 1.7 Million Died Under Khmer Rouge Rule
Prior to that, the ultra-communists had little support, but its ranks grew as American bombs fell.
The CIA's director of operations reported in 1973 the Khmer Rouge forces were successfully "using damage by B-52 strikes as the main theme of their propaganda".
In 2009, the first Khmer Rouge official to be tried for crimes committed under the regime's reign of terror told the UN-backed court: "Mr Richard Nixon and Kissinger allowed the Khmer Rouge to grasp golden opportunities."
Kissinger always pushed back on criticism regarding the bombing of Cambodia.
"I just wanted to make clear that it was not a bombing of Cambodia, but it was a bombing of North Vietnamese in Cambodia," he said in 1973.
When he was 90, he claimed bombs were only dropped on areas "within five miles of the Vietnamese border that were essentially unpopulated".

Watergate Scandal Criminal Richard Nixon, Seeing Here Pointing at a Map of Cambodia 🇰🇭, and the War Criminal Kissinger Ordered Clandestine Bombing Raid on Cambodia.
Elizabeth Becker, an American journalist who covered the bombing campaign in 1973, said this was not the case.
"First you interviewed the refugees as they were coming away from the bombing, then you'd go to the bombing and there were moonscapes - you'd see the corpses of buffalo, you'd see houses burned, the rice fields gutted," she told the BBC.
"You saw the destruction and you thought: why was this modern air force bombing the countryside so much? In those days the farmers of Cambodia weren't even used to seeing motor vehicles, they routinely said to me: 'Why is fire falling from the sky?'"
Pen Yai, 78, cooperated with the Viet Cong inside Cambodia before the bombing started, but said large numbers of civilians were killed by American bombs, including his father and brother-in-law.
"I was so scared and could not sleep. People died everywhere. We just ran and recognised people who had been killed... we could not do anything," he said.
Many world leaders have praised Kissinger, who shared the 1973 Nobel peace prize for his role in negotiating an end to the Vietnam war and was later handed the Presidential Medal of Freedom - America's highest civilian award.

Prim Hen Says She is Still Angry at the War Criminal US to this Day
But few who were in Cambodia in the 1970s will remember his legacy fondly.
Prum Hen, 70, was forced to flee her village when American bombs started raining down. She said she knew little about Kissinger and felt little sympathy when informed of his death.
"Let him die because he killed a lot of our people," she said, adding that she still feels deep resentment towards the US.
"They bombed our country, killing a lot of people and separating people from their children. Later on, the Khmer Rouge killed husbands, wives and children."
Ms Becker said the gravity of Kissinger's policies in Cambodia cannot be understated.
"To say the bombing was imprecise... it was inhumane. It's not just the number of people, it's the legacy.
"You cannot exaggerate what it did to the country."

Description: In 1968, George Lanigan leaves the University of Maryland and sets off on the journey of his life. He volunteers to serve his country in the Vietnam War and enlists in the army where he becomes an elite Special Forces advisor in a top-secret program. The United States is clandestinely training the Cambodian Army, Forces Armees Nationales Khmeres, and Lanigan is at the heart of the mission. In this personal memoir, LTC George R. Lanigan, USA (Retired), adapts his forty-year-old letters and correspondence to his parents into an emotionally compelling and suspenseful narrative that relates his daily life of survival and political tension. It's an inside, firsthand look at a rare, and previously classified, Vietnam War experience. But its scope reaches beyond the war itself and illuminates the realities soldiers face returning home, building a life, and even visiting war zones four decades later. Its openness and honesty will resonate with war veterans, their friends and family members, those suffering post-traumatic stress disorder, and people of all ages who are interested in American history. Readers will learn about war life, a volatile political environment, and how personal experiences weave together to create the person one eventually becomes.

Richard Avedon: MURALS
I visited the Richard Avedon: MURALS exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art for this assignment. The majority of Avedon’s work displayed in the exhibit was taken over a three-year period from 1969 to 1971, except for one photograph taken in 1955. There were approximately 25 individual photographs that spanned 14 different series’/collections. The sizes of the prints varied from being as small as about 8x10 inches to as wide as 35 feet. The photographs showcased were from a turning point in Avedon’s photographic style due to a change in the equipment used. He primarily used medium format cameras for his work, but later switched to large format 8x10 cameras attached to a tripod. The subjects are Andy Warhol and artists from The Factory, as well as architects and demonstrators involved in the Vietnam War. Unlike his older work, Avedon’s new style exhibited the full subject(s) standing while looking at the camera.

The first photograph that caught my attention was this one of writer Jean Genet. This is one of three photographs in the exhibit that broke Avedon’s new style. The subject is only seen from the waist up and is looking down off to the side. Genet looks tired and rugged as though the picture was taken after a long day at work. The overhead light perfectly details his facial features, and the wrinkles on his coat and sweater. The blank white background allows us to focus on our Genet. It also makes you curious about his companion to the left. I love the candidness of this picture; it was so unique amongst its peers and you can really feel Genet’s emotion. It’s so simple yet can evoke so much empathy from the viewer.

This next photograph is of Denis Cameron, Gloria Emerson, and Nguyen Ngoc Luong during the Vietnam War. Similar to the Jean Genet photo, this one also diverts itself from Richard’s new style. All subjects are shown from the waist up and are distracted by their conversations during their smoke break. It’s as though, the photographer is a fly on the wall, listening and watching what they are doing. Avedon is now the one documenting those who document the events of the war. It was probably rare for those on the ground to be photographed as much of the attention was placed on what was happening at the time. Their expressions make you wonder what they are talking about. Is it serious or casual?
The minimalist nature of Richard Avedon’s photographs was actually very refreshing. I’ve noticed that many old and new photographers opt for posed portraits/photographs often set in busy locations; from cities to indoor spaces with untidy environments on elaborate or busy sets. The white background is an Avedon staple and helps viewers focus on his intended subjects. The large format film highlighted minuscule details that would not have otherwise been noticed in smaller formats. Every wrinkle, shadow, and expression is so crisp. I’m not sure if it was his intention to have giant murals of his work to be displayed, but it was a great experience to see a photograph on such a large scale. The curators’ choice of displaying these specific pieces of work was quite interesting. These subjects are individuals viewers are unlikely to see often. Artists, diplomats, photojournalists, and activists may not always get the limelight as their actions are usually the main focus. Choosing to place them in the forefront adds more context to their stories and humanizes them more. It makes these pieces timeless and distinctive in the world of portraiture.
