Dith Pran, R.I.P.
Cambodian-born journalist Dith Pran is dead at 65. His harrowing tale of enslavement and eventual escape from that country's murderous Khmer Rouge revolutionaries in 1979 became the subject of the award-winning film The Killing Fields. When former Cambodian prime minister and Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot died in 1998, Dith said he was saddened that the dictator was never held accountable for the genocide. "The Jewish people's search for justice did not end with the death of Hitler and the Cambodian people's search for justice doesn't end with Pol Pot."
