Laos and Cambodia weren't participants in the war but that doesn't really feel like it matters all that much. Whenever I talk about the bombings of Cambodia and Laos with Americans (who - liberals and conservatives alike feel they must always defend) I sometimes here "well we bombed cities in Germany and Japan in WW2 and no one talks about those being war crimes". But were they? I really don't know much about those bombings. My gut says yes they were also war crimes but we just accept them because they were combatant countries?
Fuckers
I was in southern Laos about 15 years ago, went from Pakse to Attapeu by motorbike, there is UXO and massive bomb craters everywhere, and just the absolute nicest, kindest and most generous people it’s really fucked up. The war crimes of the US are on full display, and the fact that the US as rich as it is refuses to clean up its mess is icing on the cake
