April 17, 2015 will mark the fortieth anniversary of the Black Death. The Khmer Rouge entry into Cambodia’s capitol city of Phnom Penh. The scourge that followed will remain a blot on world history forever. Two- perhaps three million people were murdered or starved to death by communist criminals inspired by their hatred for the United States.
Americans left Indochina like cowards, tail between their legs. Innocents drafted into the war in Vietnam became victim to cheap prostitutes and drugs. Soldiers suffered maiming wounds while their commanders lived in luxury mansions with fine china, leaded crystal for entertaining. U.S. politicians at home fed off the carrion of war. Their pockets lined with contributions from arms, ship, aircraft and bomb makers. The profits were enormous as were profits turned over by civilian contractors of all sorts hired to supply the needs of warriors in the field.
