"Since the atrocities of October 7, 2023, a number of American and Israeli negotiators — among them Robert Malley and Daniel Levy — have spoken openly about how deeply flawed and performative past peace efforts have been. Behind closed doors, they acknowledge what was long known: that the so-called “peace process” was never designed to deliver a Palestinian state."

“It is white people supporting white people being attacked. But then they are silent on Israel as it bulldozes the whole of Palestine; carpet bombing, killing tens of thousands of civilians.”
On 7 December 1975 #Indonesia invaded #EastTimor, beginning 24 years of brutal occupation which would leave up to a fifth of the local population dead in a #genocide which was made possible by support from the US. https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/7978/indonesia-invades-east-timor #1u
On #ThisDayInHistory in 1975, immediately after a visit by US Pres. Ford and #HenryKissinger, the #FarRight #Suharto dictatorship in #Indonesia invaded former Portuguese colony #EastTimor. A #genocide, and 24 years of #occupation, followed; a fifth of the population was killed.
Yesterday in Labor History, November 29, 2023: Mass murderer and War Criminal Henry Kissinger is finally dead!
He won the Nobel Peace Prize, along with Lê Đức Thọ, for their work in orchestrating a ceasefire in the Vietnam War. Two Nobel Prize committee members resigned in protest. During his diplomatic career, Kissinger was involved in orchestrating and/or supporting the Chilean coup and Pinochet dictatorship (over 3,000 killed); the Argentine Dirty War (up to 30,000 killed); the Pakistani genocide in Bangladesh (3 million killed); and the Genocide in East Timor (up to 300,000 killed).

"As countries gather in Brazil for the COP 30 climate change conference, FRANCE 24 travels to East Timor, where global warming is wreaking havoc on the fishing industry. The isolated island nation and its 1.4 million people face coastal erosion, rising sea levels and dwindling marine resources. In response, local people are using imaginative methods to tackle overfishing."

Today in Labor History November 12, 1991: The Indonesian Army opened fire on a crowd of student protesters in Dili, East Timor, killing over 250 people in the Santa Cruz massacre. Many foreign journalists witnessed the massacre, including journalists Amy Goodman (Democracy Now) and Allan Nairn, who were badly beaten, as they attempted to serve as human shields to defend the Timorese from attack. British cameraman Max Stahl filmed the massacre and smuggled it into Australia. The footage was used in the documentary: In Cold Blood: The Massacre of East Timor (1992). Stahl's footage, and the testimony of Nairn and Goodman, caused outrage around the world and led to mass organizing to support the Timorese independence movement. Between 1975 and 1999, the Indonesian military slaughtered up to 300,000 East Timorese, in a genocide that wiped out as much as 44% of the total population.

2025-10-24What to expect from Southeast Asian leaders’ summit as Trump attends
Рядом с этим местом были указатели на еще парочку других иинтересных мест, но гиды не знали к ним пути (даже тот, который тут живет, и без которого нельзя посещать). Если бы я знал о них заранее, то по другому распределил бы время и посетил. Придётся возвращаться 😀. Неудобно, что это расположено далеко от столицы (часов 6-8 на машине).

Наскальные рисунки в Ili Kere-Kere (Восточный Тимор). Пишут, что нарисованы 2000-6000 лет назад.
Спросил у гида, что изображено (первое фото). Он не знал, но я почитал табличку и оказалось, что это разрезанный морской еж. Местные ими питались.
Туристов, конечно, не было, зато по лесу бродили коровки.
Страна получила независимость только в 2002г.
