In 1978, Gunnar Bergstrom and his friends in the Swedish Cambodian Friendship Association visited Cambodia as guests of the Khmer Rouge. The trip was a propaganda coup for the regime, whose genocide is still being documented. But Bergstrom is back in Cambodia — this time to apologize. He told the Phnom Penh Post:
"We saw what they wanted us to see, but we also saw what we wanted to believe."
Might we one day see an equally brave act of public contrition from Lauren Booth? Think the Daily Mail columnist feels pangs of regret for allowing herself to be used by Hamas? Naaah.
