  • daeron, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0West Papua was sold to Indonesia on behalf of the US corporation Bechtel Inc. who wished to build the world's largest mine, Freeport McMoRan Copper & Gold Inc.'s mine at Timika. The authors account of victims in 1977 telling him of family members being locked in metal crates and dumpped in the river; are similar to newer stories of entire townships being machine gunned and the female bodies dumped at sea; or the Swiss journalist's story from Dec/2000 when he was arrested for trying to conduct journalism in West Papua. These and other stories at Information Kit http://fandom.net

    But Peter Tatchell's article is one of the most concise I have read. Thank you.
