On the Side of Pol Pot: U.S. Supports Khmer Rouge
by Jack Colhoun
For many years the United States government, in a covert operation born of 
cynicism and hypocrisy, has collaborated with the genocidal Khmer Rouge in 
Cambodia. More specifically, Washington has covertly aided and abetted the Pol 
Potists' guerrilla war to overthrow the Vietnamese backed government of Prime 
Minister Hun Sen, which replaced the Khmer Rouge regime. The U.S. government's 
secret partnership with the Khmer Rouge grew out of the U.S. defeat in the 
Vietnam War. After the fall of Saigon in 1975, the U.S.-worried by the shift in 
the Southeast Asian balance of power-turned once again to geopolitical 
confrontation. It quickly formalized an anti-Vietnamese, anti-Soviet strategic 
alliance with China-an alliance whose disastrous effects have been most evident 
in Cambodia. For the U.S., playing the "China card" has meant sustaining the 
Khmer Rouge as a geopolitical counterweight capable of destabilizing the Hun 
Sen government in Cambodia and its Vietnamese allies. When Vietnam intervened 
in Cambodia and drove the Pol Potists from power in January 1972, Washington 
took immediate steps to preserve the Khmer Rouge as a guerrilla movement. 
International relief agencies were pressured by the U.S. to provide 
humanitarian assistance to the Khmer Rouge guerrillas who fled into Thailand. 
For more than a decade, the Khmer Rouge have used the refugee camps they occupy 
as military bases to wage a contra-war in Cambodia. According to Linda Mason 
and Roger Brown, who studied the relief operations in Thailand for Cambodian 
refugees: ...relief organizations supplied the Khmer Rouge resistance movement 
with food and medicines.... In the Fall of 1979 the Khmer Rouge were the most 
desperate of all the refugees who came to the Thai-Kampuchean border. 
Throughout l900, however, their health rapidly improved, and relief 
organizations began questioning the legitimacy of feeding them. The Khmer 
Rouge. . . having regained strength...had begun actively fighting the 
Vietnamese. The relief organizations considered supporting the Khmer Rouge 
inconsistent with their humanitarian goals.... Yet Thailand, the country that 
hosted the relief operation, and the U.S. government, which funded the bulk of 
the relief operations, insisted that the Khmer Rouge be fed. During his reign 
as National Security Adviser, Zbigniew Brzezinski played an important role in 
determining how the U.S. would support the Pol Pot guerrillas.. Elizabeth 
Becker, an expert on Cambodia, recently wrote, "Brzezinski himself claims that 
he concocted the idea of persuading Thailand to cooperate fully with China in 
efforts to rebuild the Khmer Rouge.... Brzezinski said, " I encouraged the 
Chinese to support Pol Pot. I encouraged the Thai to help the DK [Democratic 
Kampuchea]. The question was how to help the Cambodian people. Pol Pot was an 
abomination. We could not support him but China could."An Unholy AllianceThe 
U.S. not only permitted the Khmer Rouge to use the refugee camps in Thailand as 
a base for its war against the new government in Phnom Penh but it also helped 
Prince Norodom Sihanouk and former Prime Minister Son Sann to organize their 
own guerrilla armies from the refugee population in the camps. These camps are 
an integral factor in the ability of the Khmer Rouge, the Sihanoukist National 
Army (ANS) and Son Sann's Khmer People's National Liberation Front (KPNLF) to 
wage war against the Hun Sen government. In 1979, Washington began "a small 
program" of support for Sihanouk's and Son Sann's guerrillas by providing 
"travel expenses" for the "insurgent leaders" and funds "for the up keep of 
resistance camps near the Thai-Cambodian border." In addition, since 1982, the 
U.S. has provided the ANS and KPNLF with covert and overt "humanitarian" and 
"non lethal" military aid. By 1989, the secret non lethal aid had grown to 
between $20 million and $24 million annually and the overt humanitarian aid had 
reached $5 million. The Bush administration requested $7 million more in 
humanitarian aid for 1990. When Congress approved the $5 million aid package 
for the ANS and KPNLF in 1985, it prohibited use of the aid "...for the purpose 
or with the effect of promoting, sustaining or augmenting, directly or 
indirectly, the capacity of the Khmer Rouge....to conduct military or 
paramilitary operations in Cambodia or elsewhere....." From the beginning, U.S. 
aid for the ANS and KPNLF has been a complimentary source of aid for the Khmer 
Rouge. According to a western diplomat stationed in Southeast Asia, "... 
.two-thirds of the arms aid to the noncommunist forces appears to come from 
Peking [Beijing], along with more extensive aid to the communist fighters [the 
Khmer Rouge].... China is estimated to spend $60 million to $100 million yearly 
in aid to all factions of the anti-Vietnamese resistance." In 1982, under 
pressure from the U.S., China, and the Association of Southeast Asian Nations 
(ASEAN), Sihanouk and Son Sann joined forces with the Khmer Rouge to form the 
Coalition Government of Democratic Kampuchea (CGDK). The ANS and KPNLF, which 
were more politically respect able than the Khmer Rouge, gained military 
credibility from the guerrilla alliance. However, the Khmer Rouge gained 
considerable political legitimacy from the alliance and Khmer Rouge diplomats 
now represent the CGDK at the United Nations. The CGDK receives large amounts 
of military aid from Singapore. When asked about the relationship between money 
from the U.S. and arms from Singapore, another U.S. diplomat in Southeast Asia 
replied, "Let's put it this way. If the U.S. supplies [the guerrilla coalition] 
with food, then they can spend their food money on something else." Direct U.S. 
AidBut there are indications of direct U.S. Iinks to the Khmer Rouge. Former 
Deputy Director of the CIA, Ray Cline, visited a Khmer Rouge camp inside 
Cambodia in November 1980. When asked about the visit, the Thai Foreign 
Ministry denied that Cline had illegally crossed into Cambodian territory. 
However, privately, the Thai government admitted that the trip had occurred. 
Cline's trip to the Pol Pot camp was originally revealed in a press statement 
released by Khmer Rouge diplomats at the United Nations. Cline also went to 
Thailand as a representative of the Reagan-Bush transition team and briefed the 
Thai government on the new administration's policy toward Southeast Asia. Cline 
told the Thais the Reagan administration planned to "strengthen its 
cooperation" with Thailand and the other ASEAN members opposed to the Phnom 
Penh government. There have been numerous other reports about direct links 
between the CIA and the Khmer Rouge. According to Jack Anderson, "through 
China, the CIA is even supporting the jungle forces of the murderous Pol Pot in 
Cambodia." Sihanouk himself admitted that CIA advisers were present in Khmer 
Rouge camps in late 1989: "Just one month ago, I received intelligence 
informing me that there were U.S. advisers in the Khmer Rouge camps in 
Thailand, notably in Site B camp.... The CIA men are teaching the Khmer Rouge 
human rights! The CIA wants to turn tigers into kittens! By late 1989 the 
distinction between "direct or indirect" U.S. support for the Khmer Rouge was 
less clear. When CGDK forces launched an offensive in September 1989, 
Sihanouk's and Son Sann's armies openly cooperated with the Khmer Rouge. 
Moreover, by then the Khmer Rouge had infiltrated the military and political 
wings of the ANS and KPNLF. Sihanouk confirmed ANS and KPNLF military 
collaboration with the Khmer Rouge in a radio message broadcast clandestinely 
in Cambodia. "I would particularly like to commend the fact that our three 
armies know how to cordially cooperate with one another...We assist each other 
in every circumstance and cooperate with one another on the battlefield of the 
Cambodian motherland...., Sihanouk specifically mentioned military cooperation 
in battles at Battambang, Siem Reap, and Oddar Meanchey. Evidence of increased 
involvement of U.S. military advisers in Cambodia has also begun to surface. A 
report in the London Sunday Correspondent noted that "American advisers are 
reported to have been helping train guerrillas of the non communist Khmer 
resistance and may have recently gone into Cambodia with them....Reports of 
increased U.S. involvement have also emerged from the northern town of 
Sisophon, where local officials say four westerners accompanied guerrillas in 
an attack on the town last month.'' Although the U.S. government denies 
supplying the ANS and KPNLF with military hardware, a recent report claimed 
that KPNLF forces had received a shipment of weapons from the U.S. including 
M-16s, grenade launchers, and recoilless rifles. It has also been reported that 
the U.S. is providing the KPNLF with high resolution satellite photographs and 
"several KPNLF commanders claim Americans were sent to train some 40 elite 
guerrillas in the use of sophisticated U.S.-made Dragon anti-tank missiles in a 
four-month course that ended last month." When the KPNLF launched a major 
offensive on September 30, a large number of U.S. officials were sighted in the 
border region, near the fighting. Washington's link to the anti-Phnom Penh 
guerrilla factions was formalized in 1989 when KPNLF diplomat Sichan Siv was 
appointed as a deputy assistant to President George Bush. Siv's official 
assignment in the White House is the Public Liaison Office, where he works with 
different constituency groups, such as Khmer residents in the U.S. and other 
minority, foreign policy, youth, and education groups. Sives escaped from 
Cambodia in 1976 and immigrated to the U.S., where he joined the KPNLF. From 
1983 to 1987, Siv served as a KPNLF representative at the United Nations as 
part of the CGDK delegation which was headed by Khmer Rouge diplomats. As part 
of the Bush administration, Sichan Siv is significantly involved in the 
formulation and conduct of U.S. policy in Cambodia. He was a "senior adviser" 
to the U.S. delegation attending an international conference on Cambodia held 
last summer in Paris, where the U.S. demanded the dismantling of the Hun Sen 
government and the inclusion of the Khmer Rouge in an interim four-party 
government. He was also the moderator of a White House briefing on Cambodia in 
October 1989 for Khmer residents in the U.S. Another one of Siv's assignments 
has been to work as a liaison with far Right groups which provide political and 
material support for the KPNLF. He attended a World Anti Communist League 
(WACL) conference in Dallas, Texas in September 1985 along with other 
anti-communist "freedom fighters" from around the world. At the WACL 
conference, the KPNLF openly sought "outside training and support in 
intelligence and demolition.'' Siv has also worked with retired U.S. Army 
Brigadier General Theodore Mataxis, who heads up the North Carolina-based 
Committee for a Free Cambodia (CFC). Mataxis was approached by senior KPNLF 
generals in 1986 to set up the CFC to organize support in the U.S. for the 
KPNLF. Right Wing SupportAccording to the Reagan doctrine, the goal of U.S. 
foreign policy was to "contain Soviet expansion" by supporting 
counterrevolutionary groups in Angola, Nicaragua, Cambodia, etc. and, in 
essence, "roll back" the "Soviet empire." Many of the right wing groups which 
gained prominence after Reagan's election immediately started programs to 
support contras across the globe. The World Anti-Communist League, the Heritage 
Foundation, the Freedom Research Foundation, as well as many others, all 
pressed hard for support of the "freedom fighters.'' In its 1984 policy report 
entitled, Mandate for Leadership II: Continuing the Conservative Revolution, 
the Heritage Foundation called on the Reagan administration to focus even more 
closely on these counterrevolutionary struggles and to: ...employ paramilitary 
assets to weaken those communist and noncommunist regimes that may already be 
facing the early stages of insurgency within their borders and which threaten 
U.S. interests....Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam reflect such conditions, as do 
Angola, Ethiopia, Afghanistan, Nicaragua, Iran and Libya. In 1984, right wing 
activist / adventurer Jack Wheeler stated that "[t]here are eight anti-Soviet 
guerrilla wars being conducted in the third world at this moment....Sooner or 
later, one of these movements is going to win....The first successful overthrow 
of a Soviet puppet regime may, in fact, precipitate a 'reverse domino effect,' 
a toppling of Soviet dominos, one after the other.''Not surprisingly, Wheeler 
is a big supporter of the Cambodian contra movement and has openly solicited 
material and political support for the KPNLF. In August 1984 he wrote an 
article for the Moonie-owned Washington Times in which he said, "After spending 
a week with the KPNLF inside Cambodia...one is drawn inescapably to the 
conclusion that the KPNLF does indeed represent a real third noncommunist 
alternative for Cambodia....[But] the KPNLF is...running seriously low on 
weapons and ammunition. The lack of ammunition for rifles, rocket launchers, 
machine guns and mortars, is especially critical.'' Just how "private" the 
support Wheeler solicits for the KPNLF is open to question. Listed, along with 
Wheeler, on the Board of Directors of Freedom Research Foundation are Alex 
Alexiev and Mike Kelly. Alexiev is "with the National Security Division of the 
Rand Corporation. . . [and is] an expert on Soviet activities in the third 
world." Kelly was Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Air Force for Manpower 
Resources and Military Personnel in the early 1980s. Kelly had earlier been a 
legislative assistant to the right wing Senators Bill Armstrong (Rep.-Colo.) 
and John Tower(Rep.-Tex.).Soldier of Fortune (SOF) magazine also journeyed to 
Cambodia in support of the KPNLF. In an article written after their visit to 
the front, SOF authors David Mills and Dale Andrade appealed for readers to 
contribute to the KPNLF and to send their donations to a Bangkok address. "Any 
private citizen who wants to give more than just moral support to help the 
KPNLF rebels can send "Any private citizen who wants to give more than just 
moral support to help the KPNLF rebels can send money." It doesn't take much. 
Forty dollars will buy two uniforms, one pair of shoes, two pairs of socks, 
knapsack, plastic sheet and a scarf for one soldier. That's not a bad deal.'' 
Ted Mataxis Rides AgainRetired Brigadier-General Ted Mataxis personifies the 
historic ties of the U.S. to the KPNLF. In 1971-72, Mataxis worked with General 
Sak Sutsakhan when he was chief of the U.S. Military Equipment Delivery Team 
(MEDT) in Phnom Penh. Mataxis's official role was to supervise the delivery of 
U.S military aid to then-Cambodian Premier Lon Nol. However, Mataxis's 
assignment also included a covert role-over seeing the escalation of U.S. 
forces in Cambodia after the April 1970 U.S. invasion. Mataxis was well suited 
for working on covert operations in Cambodia, having trained at the Army's 
Strategic Intelligence School in the late 1940s.Despite a 1970 congressional 
ban on aid to the Lon Nol army, there continued to be reports of MEDT personnel 
working as advisers to the Cambodian military. There were also reports of U.S.. 
helicopters providing transport for Cambodian troops as well as supplying them 
with ammunition during battles. The U.S. also opened a radio station at 
Pochentong Airport, near Phnom Penh, to "help coordinate air support for 
Cambodian troops."When Mataxis retired from the U.S. Army in 1972, he began 
working as a "military consultant" to the Defense Ministry of Singapore. "When 
I was down in Singapore I worked with them [Sak and the other Lon Nol generals] 
very closely. We used to do repairs on their ships and other things," Mataxis 
explained. "When Congress cut off money to them in 1973, they came down to see 
what Singapore could do to help them out. I got a team together from Singapore, 
and we went up to Phnom Penh. We made arrangements to buy old brass, old 
weapons and other stuff [to sell for profit] so they'd have money for supplies 
and other things." Under U.S. law, old U.S. weapons and scrap metal military 
equipment provided to allies is U.S. property, but there was no known official 
objection to Mataxis's end run around the congressional ban on U.S. military 
aid to the Lon Nol generals. Mataxis recalled when Major General Pak Son Anh 
(who at the time worked closely with General Sak, the military commander of the 
KPNLF) visited him in Washington in 1986. "They [Pak and other KPNLF officers] 
came to see me and asked what I could do. They came up to my office at the 
Committee for a Free Afghanistan....They asked us to set up something like that 
[for the KPNLF]. So I went over to see Admiral [Thomas] Moorer. I took General 
Pak along and asked Admiral Moorer if he could act as a Godfather for us. He 
said, 'Yes, you can use my name.' Moorer was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of 
Staff when Mataxis was head of the MEDT, and Mataxis's work in Cambodia was 
supervised by Moorer and Admiral John Mc Cain, Commander-in-Chief, Pacific 
Forces, 1968-72. Mataxis spent much of 1987 setting up the Committee for a Free 
Cambodia (CFC). He visited General Sak in Thailand to determine the KPNLF's 
needs and promoted the KPNLF in the U.S. "I set it up for Pak to go to one of 
those American Security Council meetings [in Washington] in 1986. Then we had 
another one in 1987, where guerrillas from around the world came.... They'd get 
together and each guerrilla group would have a chance to get up and give his 
bit. It gave them a chance to exchange ideas and say what they were doing," 
Mataxis stated. Right wing support has been an important factor in keeping the 
Cambodian contras supplied. Even though Ted Mataxis lost in Vietnam, his war is 
not over. ConclusionAlthough most people believe that the U.S. ended its 
intervention in Southeast Asia in 1975, it is evident from the information 
provided here that the U.S. continues to support repressive and non-democratic 
forces in the jungles of Cambodia. When asked about U.S. policy in Cambodia 
during an April 26, l990 ABC News special, Rep. Chester Atkins (Dem.. Mass.) 
characterized it as "a policy of hatred." The U..S. is directly responsible for 
millions of deaths in Southeast Asia over the past 30 years. Now, the U.S. 
government provides support to a movement condemned by the international 
community as genocidal. How long must this policy of hatred continue?
