Ugh it looked like an interesting article but the jingoism was dialled up to eleven. > To hear Carstens tell it, his career first took shape when, as an 11-year-old in Spokane, he read about the Cambodian genocide, learning how the world stood by as some 2 million perished in the Khmer Rouge’s killing fields. Raised in a Christian home where the Bible was a staple, he was determined to make a difference in the lives…
Especially considering that the US began arming the "Khmer Rouge" in 1979, and then began heavily arming them a few years later.
Hilariously the Wikipedia article is titled "Allegations of US support for the Khmer Rouge" even if it describes factual US support (in the UN), and a bunch of "allegations" based on internal reports confirming them.
