  > Pol Pot was classic Marxist It's not true. Pol Pot was a madman that created his own crazy theory that included parts of Marxism. Where does Marx said that the city populations must be evacuated to the villages and teachers killed? Anyway, the point is not in the details. My point is that USA meddling with politics in remote countries usually results in civil war, millions of dead people and economical decline that lasts for decades. It was true for Cambodia, it's true for Arab Spring countries, it's true for Ukraine which is the last known victim of USA backed revolution to this day. How many more victims this world needs?
