as reliably nice people. Hayden, for example, did not promise that there would be no killing when the Khmer Rouge took over, or even no bloodbath;
what he said was that if the Lon Nol government could be persuaded to give up its efforts to hold onto power, "there will be less possibility of a
bloodbath" (p. 116).
