On 18 March 1969, pressurized by President Richard Nixon’s
Security Adviser Henry Kissinger, the United States launched an
attack on Cambodia with B-52 bombers from high altitude in order to
“demolish the NLF bases” there. Each of the planes dropped some
thirty tons of bombs. The intensive bombing went on for fourteen
months. More sporadic attacks continued until 15 August 1973, when
488
the US Congress pushed through a stop. In total, 540 000 tons of
bombs were dropped on Cambodia.
In his book “The Trial of Henry Kissinger” (2001), the journalist
Christopher Hitchens presents evidence that Kissinger is liable to
prosecution for the instigation of murder in Santiago (Chile), Nicosia
(Cyprus), and Washington D.C., war crimes in Vietnam, the bombing
of Cambodia, massacres in Bangladesh in 1971 and as well as genocide in East Timor in 1975. This has not yet been done.
Prince Norodom Sihanouk was no longer able to control the
situation in Cambodia, where many areas had become effective bases
for the communists. General Lon Nol subsequently carried out a coup
d’etat, overthrowing Prince Sihanouk with the help of the CIA on 18
March 1970. In April of that year American and South Vietnamese
troops were let into Cambodia to “save the country from communism”. In this way, Lon Nol, who had appointed himself “marshal”,
forced “the Khmer Republic” into the war in Indo-China. Close to two
million peasants fled to the capital, which already had one million
inhabitants. The Finnish investigating commission estimated that
American warfare in Cambodia had cost the lives of at least 600 000
people. In May 1970, American troops entered Laos as well.
The American military equipment for Lon Nol’s regime was insured
by the national Soviet insurance agency (Gostrakh), according to
Chinese sources (“Soviet Foreign Policy: Social Imperialism”, Chinese
Embassy, Helsinki, 1977, p. 10). The same source states that Czechoslovakia manufactured arms for Lon Nol in a factory inside Cambodia.
At the same time, Peking supported the Red Khmer, while Moscow
stood behind the Vietnamese red terrorists, who according to Gary
Allen, also received arms from the United States.
Soon, many of Lon Nol’s supporters realized that they had been
shamelessly used, and joined the democratic movement behind
Sihanouk. Thus the communist Pol Pot Kmae-kroh movement was
helped to power on 17 April 1975, indirectly by the United States
and directly by China. Pol Pot (actually Saloth Sar) renamed the
country Kampuchea (the original name Cambodia was taken back
489
after the fall of the communist regime in 1989). This was the
beginning of an unequalled reign of terror. On the Thai border were
6000 men belonging to the khmer-serei guerrilla, which represented
democracy. They did not receive any aid from the United States. On
the other hand, 25 000 Red Khmer terrorists continuously and
secretly received Western aid, according to a British documentary,
“Cambodia the Year Zero”, by the Australian journalist John Pilger.
Between 1975 and 1979, some two million people were killed in
Kampuchea (of a population of eight million), under the motto of Pol
Pot: “Keep them – no gain. Exterminate them – no loss. We will burn
away the old grass, so the new will grow.”
The operation had been planned two years before by a group of
ideologists belonging to the political lodge Angka Loeu (The Higher
Organization). Their aim was to implement all communist Chinese
principles at once (in China itself it took 25 years). Everything from
the past was to be destroyed and annihilated. Angka Loeu consisted
of a score of intellectuals (teachers and bureaucrats). Of the eight
leaders (Khieu Samphan, May Mann, Ieng Sary, Nuon Chea, Son Sen,
Pol Pot and others), five were teachers, one a university professor,
one an economist and one a bureaucrat, according to Paul Johnson.
All had studied in France in the early 1950s, and there become
members of the French Communist Party and freemasons, learning
from the leaders of the Martinist Order that the use of violence was
good for society, a “truth” eagerly propagated by the radical leftwing freemasons.
Kenneth Quinn, of the US State Department, had received information about the plans of Angka Loeu, and wrote a report about the
planned mass murder, dated 20 February 1974 (“Political Change in
Wartime: The Khmer Krahom Revolution in Southern Cambodia 1970-
74″, American Science Association, 4 September 1975). The plan
stated that “individual members of society must be mentally reconstructed” and that “the traditional foundations, structures and
forces, which have shaped and governed the life of an individual
must be torn down, using terror and other means”. After this, the
490
individual would be “rebuilt in accordance to party doctrine,
replacing old values with new ones”. This reeks of freemasonry. The
American leadership did not intend to interfere with such a plan. One
does not to disturb one’s masonic brothers when they follow international instructions.
The carnage in Cambodia began on 17 April 1975, when the Red
Khmer, young indoctrinated peasant soldiers entered the capital
Pnomh Penh, the home of three million people. The violence began
at 7 a. m. with attacks on Chinese shops. The first murders were
committed at 8. 45. At 10 a. m., the soldiers opened fire on everyone
they saw in the streets, in order to cause panic, so that everyone fled
the city.
All hospitals were evacuated. Rockets were fired towards any
house showing signs of movement. In the evening, the water was
turned off. No officers were in sight. The intellectual freemasons who
had planned these evil deeds, to build a society without cities or
money, did not appear. The Red Khmer took the women and small
children to the killing fields.
All ties of friendship were banned. Only dark clothes were allowed,
brightly coloured clothes were regarded as expressions of individualism.
This was typical of the masonic humanism that spread from France
to other parts of the world. The leaders of the Revolution (all freemasons) had declared, in 1793: “We will rather turn all of France into
a graveyard than fail.” (Guy Lenotre, “The Mass Drownings in Nantes”, Stockholm, 1913, p. 157) Compassion with the victims was
regarded as criminal (ibid, p. 153). The masonic leaders wanted to be
rid of the royalists and the enemies of the people, whom they regarded as “superfluous mouths”. Among the victims were women and
children. The mass drownings in the Loire River were called “floods”,
and were organized by the Common Welfare Committee (13 members,
all freemasons).
The Red Khmer had learned much from this “revolutionary” terror
imposed on the French by Jewish freemasons
