Khmer Rouge

Well, I went to go visit the museum and original ground that the Khmer rouge took place. If many of you don't know, Pol pot was like the Hitler of Cambodia and the Khmer Rouge is depicted very similar to the Jewish concentration camps.

Pol Pot died in 1998, they had pictures of him on his death bed on the front of the museum. It's so interesting how they display their evidence and a lot of them are still in the original state and you can walk into the rooms and look at them. It's very eerie. I didn't last long, because it was so overwhelming.

They had a few rooms with photo's of the tortured and even evidence of the torture chambers. There were posters next to them on how they were used. A lot of interrogation happened and water torture.

You can also see all the photo's of the victims and the most powerful effect on me was the rooms displaying all the clothes in one glass box and many bones and skulls of the victims and the description of how they were executed. It gave me shivers. I can't begin to imagine the torture and labor my people had to go through. We can only remeber that Cambodia finally has it's freedom today and we have no more assholes to ruin that.
