One thing is for sure, Buschman can be counted on to believe... The only thing "for sure" is that you don't know me well enough to know what I believe. You only ASSume you know. Let me know when you figure out that Laos and Cambodia both fell to the communists. In the meantime, keep up your amusing "evil multinational corporation" rants.

Cambodia, Cambodia, wasn't that this guy? wv.essortment.com Was this his handiwork? yale.edu Laos? After Communist victories in Vietnam and Cambodia, the Pathet Lao took control of the country in 1975, abolished the monarchy, and made Laos a republic. Souphanouvong became president, and Kaysone Phomvihane, head of the Communist party, became premier. Huge numbers of Laotians (many Hmong) fled to Thailand and many eventually sought refuge in the United States. (Small Hmong forces, however, continued to fight against the Communists into the 21st cent.) Laos became increasingly dependent on Vietnam for military and economic assistance, and the two countries signed a 25-year treaty of friendship in 1977. infoplease.com Wanna play again?
