Field Reporter: Are you glad to be in Cambodia?
Soldier: Negative. No.
Radio Reporter: The principle casualties appear to be innocent Cambodians.
Henry Kissinger: [at podium]... the occasional difficulties in reaching a final solution.
Richard Nixon: What we are doing is to help the Cambodians help themselves. This is *not* an invasion of Cambodia.
French Reporter: The Nixon Doctrine for Southeast Asia appears to have failed. The war that began in Vietnam has now engulfed Cambodia. There is anger and frustration at the US bombings. Thousands of lives lost. Farms and livelihoods destroyed.
