November 7, 2009

The importance of supporting the B52 Holocaust Museum is accountability.

Ignoring the importance of accountability of the United States for the murderous bombing of Cambodia means these same acts will be repeated again and again, just as the attacks on Iraq and Afghanistan happened with no accountability.

United States B52 Holocaust Museum has posted on line (Pol Pot / Kissinger, Murderous Thugs) the previously top secret transcripts of Kissinger’s acknowledgement and support of Pol Pot’s atrocities in Cambodia.

Recognizing that Cambodia was controlled by “murderous thugs,” Kissinger nevertheless wanted the Thais to tell the Cambodians “that we will be friends with them.”

“How many people did he kill tens of Thousands?” Kissinger.

“Nice and quietly,” Philip C. Habib.

Kissinger continues to this day advising U.S. President, Obama.

Foreigners who share responsibility for the tragedy before and after the period of Democratic Kampuchea will not be indicted. No Thai civil or military leader will stand trial, although Thailand constantly interfered in Cambodian affairs from 1953 onwards, spared no effort to destabilise the neutral Cambodian regime before 1970 and served as a rear base for Pol Pot’s army from 1979 to 1998.

Singapore was the hub for supplies to Pol Pot’s army after 1979, but its leaders will not be brought to book. Nor will the European governments, led by Britain, that supplied arms and munitions to the Khmer Rouge from 1979 to 1991. Nor Henry Kissinger, for his responsibility in illegal bombings from March 1969 to May 1970, the coup of 18 March 1970 that overthrew Sihanouk, and the invasion of Cambodia in April 1970. Nor US President Jimmy Carter and his national security advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski, who in 1979 chose to condemn the liberation of Cambodia by Vietnam, impose a total embargo on Cambodia and support the rebuilding and supply of Pol Pot’s army. That preference remained the choice of the Reagan and Bush (Sr) administrations until 1990.”
