China was the main supporter of the Khmer Rouge, but one of the Khmer Rouge's targets for genocide were specifically the CHINESE, so why would the Chinese support a country that specifically target Chinese people, und, subsequently, why did the Khmer Rouge genocide the Chinese when one of its main supporters was China?
