Indonesia prepares for war on Aceh reading from a US script
'Two things are certain about the newly resumed war in Aceh: a lot of innocent people will die and not many people will care - at least outside of the province on Sumatra's northern tip. Almost as predictable is that Indonesia's latest vow to crush the rebel army, GAM, will fail, just as it has failed in the past.'

One wonders how much responsibility for these killings George Bush and John Howard will have to bear, with their 'preemptive war' and 'war on terror' doctrines, and their shallow pretexts for attacking a Muslim country.
