The photo showed him in tsunami-stricken Indonesia, accompanying the country’s defense minister, Juwono Sudarsono. His visit was under the guise of humanitarianism. But as always with Wolfowitz and Indonesia, a more nefarious project is in the offing: strengthening Washington’s ties with the Indonesian military (TNI). 2005-03-10 http://www.indonesiaalert.org/article.php?id=93 VALENTINE'S GOLD JEWELRY SALES GENERATE 34 MILLION TONS OF MINE WASTE 2005-02-11 http://www.indonesiaalert.org/article.php?id=91 2005-02-09 http://www.indonesiaalert.org/article.php?id=92 2005-02-08 http://www.indonesiaalert.org/article.php?id=87 2005-01-11 http://www.indonesiaalert.org/article.php?id=89 On December 25, 2004, one day before Aceh was devastated by an earthquake-driven tsunami, the Indonesian military (TNI) announced that it had just killed eighteen guerrillas in the province. Such news had long since become routine. A week earlier, the TNI killed five. TNI chief Gen. Endriartono Sutarto stated in early December that his men had killed 3,216 Acehnese since martial law was imposed upon the province in May 2003. In all these reported armed clashes, very few Indonesian soldiers died. The war was lopsided, with Acehnese, especially civilians (posthumously labeled “rebels” by the TNI), bearing nearly all the casualties. Aceh was already a killing field before the Indian Ocean wreaked havoc on the land. 2005-01-11 http://www.indonesiaalert.org/article.php?id=90 2005-01-09 http://www.indonesiaalert.org/article.php?id=86 Binny Buchori, Director of INFID said today: "Every delay in deciding on Indonesia's debt means more lives lost in Aceh and North Sumatra. The international community must tackle the issue this week". 2005-01-05 http://www.indonesiaalert.org/article.php?id=80 Tapol's Barber warned that the natural disaster that struck Aceh more than a week ago will only serve to reinforce the military's role under the cover of becoming involved in humanitarian activities. 2005-01-04 http://www.indonesiaalert.org/article.php?id=79 Acehnese and U.S. groups demand the United Nations exercise leadership essential for a coordinated, efficient and impartial relief effort in the tsunami-stricken region of Aceh. 2005-01-03
