You might want to expand your reading just a little, rather than just spouting the views of others.
see this, written by Edward Herman, who co-wrote the article by which you villianize Chomsky.
also (Herman was responding to Rothschild's support of an Anthony Lewis column in the New York Times, which attacked Noam Chomsky by calling him a Khmer Rouge apologist. That stems from a 1975 article published in The Nation by Chomsky and Herman that argued that by bombing Cambodia to kingdom come, the US created the circumstances by which a monster like Pol Pot could come to power. This was a very interesting conflict, as both Herman and Chomsky reiterated their positions in letters to The Progressive, and finally Rothschild backed down.)
Which is the truth? I dunno, I haven't read the original- have you?
BTW, as I have stated in previous posts, I have no particular love for ol' Noam.
Just remeber there are always to sides to every he said-she said story.
Cheers,
Tony
