A savage civil war is being waged in the islands of Malaku in Indonesia. Yet, in contrast to the publicity the recent atrocities in East Timor received, the war has been receiving little attention by the West. The West, especially Washington, continuously gives publicity to the unclean nature of the Presidential election campaign in Mexico and demonises Zimbabwe's President Mugabe. Yet more people are being dislocated, brutalised and savagely murdered in the Malaku islands of Indonesia with the connivance of the Indonesian armed forces. Yet it is not the focus of attention for Washington and its subalterns in the mass media. The number of people killed as a result of the so called land invasion pales into insignificance against the butchery that the Indonesian state has been responsible for in the Malaku islands --formerly known as the Spice Islands. This contrast gives the lie to the concerns of Washington regarding its image as crusader of the preservation and advancement of democracy in the world today. Politically it does not suit Washington's imperialist interests to advertise atrocities committed in Indonesia involving the Indonesian armed forces.
