Instead, he suggests merely because I've made an observation about the Khmer Rouge's rights to dispose of Cambodian Cultural Property as they saw fit during their reign, I somehow condone doing business with them. Well, if that is so, perhaps Heritage Watch and all the rest pressing the Cambodian Government's case should reflect on the fact that Cambodia's leader since the fall of the Khmer Rouge is a former Khmer Rouge commander himself, who defected to the Vietnamese and rode to power on a Vietnamese tank. Indeed, the closeness between the old regime and the new one can be seen by the fact that a war crimes tribunal funded by the West meant to bring Khmer Rouge killers to justice has gone nowhere.
