Cindy is on a trip to Cambodia. While shopping in a village, she stops at a stall to ask about a little change purse. The man in the stall grabs it from her hands. "American?" he asks angrily. When Cindy nods her head, he begins to wave his arms. His daughter rushes forward, apologizing. She explains that her father was alive during the time of the Khmer Rouge and suffered greatly. Cindy is confused. For what reason might a survivor of the Cambodian Killing Fields have bad feelings about the United States?
⚪ The Khmer Rouge were following ideology that they took from the United States.
⚪ The United States helped the Khmer Rouge fight off Vietnamese occupation.
⚪ The United States has never dealt with Cambodia so there is no reason.
⚪ When they were asked to allow refugees from Cambodia, the United States refused.
