Pol Pot mass murderer

Pol Pot was a mass murderer. When he came to power in 1975, Cambodia had an approx. population of 7.3 million. Four years later, by 1979, Pol Pot had managed to kill 2 million of his fellow countrymen. In comparison, Adolf Hitler killed 12 million people who, for one reason or another, didn't fit into his plans. Of these 12 million, 6 million were Jews and 2.5 million were Soviet prisoners of war. Joseph Stalin's victims were also counted in tens of millions.  So yes, Pol was up there in the big killer league.
