A Reply To Greta Christina And Phil Zuckerman

The "findings" of Phil Zuckerman are referenced by Greta Christina in a prior post here today. Zuckerman is claimed to be an expert in Atheist supremacy as evidenced by Scandinavian cultural progressivism in their governments. This Scandinavian excellence is touted as evidence for Atheist governance superiority. But here is evidence which Zuckerman and Christina don't show [1]:

A Cambodian Diary Of The Khmer Rouge Experience.

If the history of the Atheist conquest of Cambodia is horrific, the account from those subjected to it is more so.

"When Khmer Rouge forces seized Phnom Penh on April 17, 1975, the couple was living with eight of their children in a rural town called Kampong Chhnang. Three days later, the guerrillas arrived and residents — including Younly — cheered, relieved the war was finally over, his 86-year-old widow Som Seng Eath recalled.

But within hours, everything changed. Every soul was ordered to leave on foot.

The Khmer Rouge were emptying Cambodia's cities, marching millions of people into the countryside to work as manual laborers. Their aim was to create an agrarian communist utopia, but they were turning the Southeast Asian nation into a slave state.

Younly "didn't believe what was happening. He kept saying, 'Don't worry, we'll be back soon, don't pack much,'" his widow said. She ignored his advice, and took as much as she could — including five of her husband's school notebooks, and several blue ink pens.

As gunshots rang, they joined the departing hordes, cradling their young children and whatever they could carry. As they walked into the night, people wept.

Younly recounts marching through forests and mountains for nearly two weeks. Along the way, most of their possessions were confiscated, including four of the notebooks and a prized camera Younly had bought during a government visit to inspect schools in the United States in 1961.

Ominously, they began hearing talk of execution sites ahead — what would later become known as Cambodia's "killing fields."

On May 1, they reached the village of Chumteav Chreng and settled.

The new authorities, known as "Angkar" — "The Organization" — soon "ordered all of our clothes to be dyed black," Younly wrote. The evacuees were organized into work units. Children were separated from their parents, and put to work in special units of their own.

"We worked day and night clearing wood to make arable land, uprooting the trees, digging canals, building roads and dikes, planting vegetables and digging ponds," Younly wrote. "We worked 10 to 13 hours a day."

Food supplies dwindled, and Younly and his wife grew so desperate they traded clothes and a treasured family locket for salt, sugar and medicine.

The following month, Younly fell ill. He could not work, but he had the privacy to write.

Months later, he began sensing his end was near.

"By now, my body resembles a corpse, thin with only skin and bones," he wrote. "I have no energy, and my hands and legs tremble. No power, no strength. I cannot walk far or do heavy work. Everyone works like animals, like machines, without any value, without hope for the future."

At one point, Younly writes of his regret at not being able to see all of his children. His two oldest sons were elsewhere in the country. The rest were forced to live in other parts of the village, working in mobile children's work units.

"Let me die," he continued. "Let my destiny take me wherever it goes ... My children, I miss you; I love you."

Younly wrote until there were no pages left to write on, his wife said. On Aug. 1, 1976, he wrote a postscript on the final page, asking his family to take care of the diary.

Hours later, he was taken away by the regime to help lift a palm tree that had fallen in a paddy field. In fact, authorities had come to arrest him because one of his sons had attempted to exchange an Omega watch Younly had bought in America 15 years earlier for fermented fish.

Private property was illegal; hiding it was worse.

"I never saw him again," Som Seng Eath said, tears streaming down her wrinkled cheeks 38 years later.

Younly died several weeks later, in a nearby prison where he was kept chained to the ground."

We should demand that the likes of Christina and Zuckerman justify these Atheist atrocities in the same manner as they promote the Scandinavian utopias (now hot beds of antisemitic hatred).
