In 2002, my partner and I visited Angkor Wat. The highway from the airport to our hotel was a pockmarked dirt road. People with missing and mangled limbs were a common sight. Reliquaries of bones stood in fields. Fuck Henry Kissinger, may his works crumble and his name be swiftly forgotten.

Doctor Memory (memory@m.blank.org)'s status on Thursday, 30-Nov-2023 21:12:22 JST Doctor Memory If you would like to do a small thing to help undo the mark that Henry Kissinger left on the world, I recommend a donation to the HALO Trust, which was working to de-mine Cambodia when I visited in 2002. The work continues. https://www.halousa.org/where-we-work/south-asia/cambodia/
