Bombing Vietnamese invaders of Cambodia made the Khmer Rouge commit mass genocide years later (particularly targeting those peaceful monks for extermination)? Are you sure the KR didn't get their killing ideas from their allies Cultural Revolution? What country was it that went to war with Vietnam after VN overthrew their KR allies in Cambodia ending the genocide? No word if napalm was used during that war but women and children were involved it seems:

The PLA did not foresee the tough resistance of the Vietnamese people, including the suicidal attacks by women and children trying to defend their own towns and villages.
