Cambodia." Issues and Controversies in America. N.p.: n.p., n.d. N. pag. Print.

This encyclopedia indicates some of the lasting effects of the Khmer Rouge. We used this information for the impact of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. Schanberg, Sydney. Beyond the Killing Fields.

When the War Was Over: The Voices of Cambodia's Revolution and Its People. New York: Simon, 1986. 440. Print. This secondary source illustrates that the United States 'unofficially" supported Pol Pot. Although they would not support him directly, they encouraged other nations, like China and Thailand, to support him only because it would aid in Cambodia's independence. This quote can be used in project to illustrate the purely political role that they played in Cambodia, because although genocide was occurring under the Khmer Rouge regime, the United States did not care; they only cared that Cambodia was independent because it would help in their mission to make Southeast Asia independent.

This will aid our project because it illustrates that the United States right to involve Cambodia in its affairs ultimately had a negative impact, and therefore they did not have the "right" to do so. Kevin, Doyle. "Putting the Khmer Rouge on Trial." TIME 26 July 2007: n. pag. Web. 5 Dec. 2013.

These details, as well as some of the pictures will help in our project to illustrate our point that the United States involvement in Cambodia ultimately had a negative impact for both nations. SamSam-Ang. "Preserving a Cultural Tradition: Ten Years after the Khmer Rouge. 14.3. Spec. issue of Cultural Survival Quarterly Fall 1990: n. pag. Cultural Survival. Web. 17 Nov. 2013. This article described the impact that the Khmer Rouge had on Cambodian culture. A majority of the artists and intellectuals were killed, and therefore so was Cambodian culture and arts.

U.S. Foreign Policy in Perspective. U.S. Foreign Policy in Perspective, 2009. Web. 23 Nov. 2013. This article informed me on the United States reaction to Nixon's policy. Since this included an excessive amount of bombing on Cambodia, eventually the government (Congress) and the people started to protest. This will be used to demonstrate that the United States (Nixon) did not have the right to bomb Cambodia to this excess. "Cambodia: 1970-73." U.S. Foreign Policy in Perspective. U.S. Foreign Policy in Perspective, 2009. Web. 23 Nov. 2013.

It demonstrates that foreign policies and actions ultimately influenced and encourage the rise of the Khmer Rouge, and essentially Cambodian Genocide as well.

Web. 16 Nov. 2013. This article provided detailed information on the United States' bombing campaigns in Cambodia. It discussed the conditions of Cambodia before the bombings, the United States' justification and goals of bombing, and the different phases and results. This can benefit our project by illustrating the actions of the U.S. that led up to the rise of the Khmer Rouge. It also

helped us with our segment on the connection between the bombings in Cambodia and Afghanistan. Klein, Laura. "Former Khmer Rouge Leaders Request Acquittal at Closing Arguments." Jurist. Jurist Legal News and Research Services, 1 Nov. 2013. Web. 7 Dec. 2013. This website provided current information on the Nuon Chea and Khieu Samphan trials.

Cambodian Tribunal, and use the information on our current events page. We also used a quote from this site as well about the reason for setting up this Commission.

Videos:
First Run Features. The Trials of Henry Kissinger: Cambodia. Youtube. Youtube, 25 Mar. 2007. Web. 1 Dec. 2013. This video describes the results of the United States bombing of Cambodia. We used it to introduce the United States actions and impact that helped make them responsible for the rise of the Khmer Rouge, and ultimately the genocide they committed as well. We also used another clip to summarize the general actions and impact of the Khmer Rouge, which can be found on the home page of the Khmer Rouge Regime. MilitaryChannelWSC. B52 Operation Arclight. Youtube. Youtube, 14 Aug. 2013. Web. 23 Nov. 2013. This video is very beneficial because it provides a visual impact of the bombings in Cambodia. When combined with a quote describing this video, it will hopefully shock viewers and aid them in recognizing what exactly the United States was doing in Cambodia. Panh, Rithy, dir. S21: The Khmer Rouge Death Machine. First Run Features, 2003.Film. This film was very informative on the conditions of the Cambodia camps, particularly S21. It not only described the conditions, but also the circumstances that helped that prisoners either survive or in most cases die. We used a video clip to illustrate the routine that the guards would go through every night with the prisoners in the camp. We also used a quote from the film in our website to explain the interrogation procedures at the camps.
