You can't understand the Khmer Rouge relevance when you claim all conflict if over material things? All you have to do is supply the "material" reason they killed a third of their nation.

What part of extreme nationalism (tribal racial indentity, racism, xenophobia ) that relates directly to territorial domain do you not get as being material related?

All communist revolutions & regimes, whether under the Kymer Rouge or Mao or Stalin were the rejection of capitalist economic systems & the domination of western industrial nations. They exploited ideological socialist marxist concepts with heavy emphasis of nationalist xenophobic themes & total expungement of any elitism in a revolution where any intellectualism or free market was condemned with extreme brutality.

Of course this was a conflict over material things with a hatred of the "Free Market" but you don't see any materialism implied here? Get a brain.
