The Buddha's Law Of Karma & The Khmer Rouge Leaders The Buddha's Law Of Karma evidently applies to the Khmer Rouge leaders, as it applies to every one on Earth. When the Khmer Rouge leaders were on their killing spree of the Cambodian people, they were confident that no one would be willing or capable to intervene to try to stop them in their execution of the genocide of the Cambodian people. Also, the absense of the resistance from the Cambodian people at the grassroot level against the genocide (the opposition against the genocide from some former Khmer Rouge factions including Hun Sen wasn't at the grassroot level) led the Khmer Rouge leaders to think that they were a "very strong unbeatable" force. By grassroot level I mean, eg, individual Cambodian victims killing Khmer Rouge officials, or organizing into groups that fought back the Khmer Rouge.
Then the Law Of Karma kicked in. The KAMM PIA VEH RIA that the Khmer Rouge leaders KOR SARNG brought their regime to extinction, by making them erroneously believe that the 2 factors mentioned above (confidence of the Khmer Rouge leaders & the absence of the resistance from the Cambodian people) "proved" that they were so "powerful" that they could invade & seize Vietnam, by making them try to "invade" Vietnam, & by making Vietnam succeed in ousting them from Cambodia. When I saw Duch in the Khmer Rouge Trial in Phnom Penh as broadcast on Canadian TV, I saw a hateful mass-murderous barbarian, who's been brought to justice by the Law Of Karma. And I thought of my relatives who were killed, directly or indirectly, by the Khmer Rouge, including my older brother, his wife, & both of his children (a nice boy & his younger beautiful sister) (most probably directly, because my brother was arrested by the Khmer Rouge while we were on our way escaping to Vietnam; his wife decided to be with him & took the children with her), & an older sister of mine. The Khmer Rouge leaders including Duch can't be forgiven. We can't even forgive a person who murders a person; we'll send him/her to jail. So how can we forgive a bunch of hateful murderous shameless barbarians who hatefully indiscriminately atrociously murdered 2,000,000 of their OWN innocent people?? And that was 2,000,000 out of 6,000,000, or 1/3 of the total population. Besides, if we forgive them, then a new genocide, by whatever Khmer faction, is more likely to happen again than if we don't forgive them.
