The real issue is this:
What right does the USA have in putting these “Human Rights” front groups and phony “Democracy” organizations in another country in the first place?
What would be the reaction of these Americans if Cambodia or anyone else gave America a taste of its own medicine and supported similar “Human Rights and Democracy” organizations in the USA?
Americans would be crying and whining about “foreign influnces” from now until forever.
What Americans—both Liberal and Conservative—had better understand is this: You have no moral and political right to intervene, interfere, meddle and manipulate in other countries.
All of this bullsh*t rhetoric about “Regime Change” is a euphemism for American Imperialism. Nothing more.
