LoL ! My mother was an academic in '78 and she criticised the Khmer
Rouge all the time. She was basically a leftist gone liberal.

We had a cat - felix who would kill litterally hundreds of moles, mice
and ground squirrels. His nickname was "Pol Pot".

I guess Jim does not hail from academia. Of all the professors i have
known i actually can't think of any of them that supported the Khmer
Rouge and i can't think of any that would have hesitated to criticize
them. After all they did massacre intellectuals - so it was a bit
personal.
