Publisher's Synopsis
After World War II, most of Asia gained their independence from colonial military rule. Many Asia countries would fall into the web of communism and despot regimes that administered policies which led to atrocities against its political rivals, religious and ethnic cleansing of its own people. America's policies in Asia focused on the containment of communism with an effort to stop its spread throughout Asia. While America was attempting to stop the spread of communism through military intervention, more sinister despots immerged to take over countries that had been weakened by decades of war and internal chaos. Their atrocities have only been relegated to the back pages of newspapers and have been little noticed by western nations. This is an uncensored look at modern history in Asia and the 100 million people who died in the hands of sinister rulers.
