Pol Pot dies age 72

Death0 Comments

Pot dies from heart failure. He suffers illness as he flees from those who wish to turn him in to the US government, only to die of natural causes. His wife and daughter are with him as he dies.

My only wish is that Cambodians stay united so that Vietnam will not swallow our country.
