Up to 17,000 perished in Tuol Sleng; across Cambodia, almost two million - a quarter of the population - died. Brother Number One brushed aside his blood-lust, saying: 'He who protests is an enemy, he who opposes is a corpse.'A Special UN court in Cambodia is trying five members of the Kymer Rouge after 34 years.
The Daily Mail has the story of the one British prisoner who died in the infamous Tuol Sleng - Hill Of The Poisonous Trees, the former school that Pol Pot and his followers made into a death prison. No one left alive.
The Kymer Rouge, like Zimbabwe president Robert Mugabe, were Communists. (Not one mention in the New York Times bio of Mugabe that he was Marxist.)
So was Van Jones, the former Green Jobs Czar hired by Barak Obama. How could anyone in 1992 claim to be communist after the insanity of Cambodia?
