I am not saying a war should of happened over Cambodia. It was just astonishing that the amount information coming out of there of the genocide going on was greeted with that much apathy. It was only after all of the murders that the movie came out. Then all of the dimwits seemed to care. Believe me or not.
I completely believe you, because I can believe the American public (left and right) had no interest in losing one more son in Southeast Asia. The failure of Vietnamization made it clear that South Vietnam couldn’t survive on its own.
