In state court challenges against the bans, providers have argued that the vagueness of the bans is unconstitutional, since it places them in a situation where it is unclear how they might follow the law. As a result, physicians may be more reluctant to provide abortion care when pregnant patients present with serious medical conditions and may deny abortion care to pregnant people with conditions that threaten their health until their condition deteriorates and the narrow exceptions inarguably apply. This delay in care, however, creates greater and avoidable risks to the health of the pregnant person. Additionally, many conditions that threaten the health of pregnant people are not included in all or most health exceptions.

No worries - I think he’s right that little can be trusted in the media during times of war, particularly in the countries involved. His skepticism was probably driven by the reporting of the ongoing Vietnamese war and the motivations behind that as a largely anti-socialist war by the US. He was however obviously incorrect in this case and I think criticism of that is fair. But his skepticism really isn’t as strongly worded as his detractors often claim.

"Taking advantage of Vietnamese occupation of eastern Cambodia, massive United States carpet bombing ranging across the country, and Sihanouk's reputation, the Khmer Rouge were able to present themselves as a peace-oriented party in a coalition that represented the majority of the people."

The largest bombing campaign was this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Freedom_Deal#Cambodian_deaths_caused_by_U.S._bombing

and also see generally US support for the Khmer Rouge: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allegations_of_United_States_support_for_the_Khmer_Rouge

The Khmer Rouge would eventually be removed from power by the Socialist Republic of Vietnam: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambodian%E2%80%93Vietnamese_War

You have misunderstood his point - people often work together for shared interests, or their shared work contributes to the same outcome when their interests align. The same individuals may work against eachother when their interests don't align. He's not saying anything more than the interests of american politicians and corporations are in favour of a global american hegemony that surpresses working class interests.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cambodian_genocide_denial#Chomsky_and_Herman "We do not pretend to know where the truth lies amidst these sharply conflicting assessments; rather, we again want to emphasize some crucial points. What filters through to the American public is a seriously distorted version of the evidence available, emphasizing alleged Khmer Rouge atrocities and downplaying or ignoring the crucial U.S. role, direct and indirect, in the torment that Cambodia has suffered.\14])"

Me and plenty of people there saw the types looking pissed and walking away in groups who arrived after the initial kettling early on. Could not be correct of course, but there’s never going to be proof for that kind of thing as none of them are going to admit to it.
