Ashtrays sculpted to resemble the heads of Pol Pot(R), the infamous 'Brother Number One' of the Khmer Rouge, and 'Brother Number Three' Khieu Samphan(L) are seen on a shop shelf in this file photo taken March 5, 2003. The ashtrays, the brainchild of an enterprising Phnom Penh shopkeeper, sell for $3.80 each and are designed to remind the international community that the surviving leaders of the ultra-Maoist regime have yet to stand trial for the genocide of 1.7 million Cambodians.

The UN you and I fund today still can't get it right.

Lest We Forget - Cambodia...not everybody has forgotten - Mona Charen has an excellent chapter on Cambodia in her latest book Useful Idiots and really skewers the likes of Sydney Schanberg, "hero" of The Killing Fields, and other leftwingers who looked the other way and really would like to forget.....
