The purpose of this collection of documents is to show three points: Firstly, Indonesian atrocities in East Timor; secondly, the responsibility of the Western democracies; and thirdly, the cover-up in the Western mass media.


The collection opens and closes with UN testimonies by Noam Chomsky. The documents in between are arranged by origin and topic, rather than in a chronological sequence. For reasons of space it has only been possible to present but a fraction of the material available. Sources which are quoted and discussed in the UN testimonies are not repeated as separate items*.
