Day-to-day weather, with all its extremes, is "just weather", according to the IPCC. With their authority onside, we can shrug off the BBC's melodramatic climate reports and misinformation, says Mark Ellse.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Indonesia, armed by the British under their 'ethical' arms policy. Sales to Indonesia were sanctioned by Robin (peace and love) Cook in 1997.
Indonesia, assisted in their West Papuan genocide by Laskar Jihad, Islamic extremists closley associated with bin Laden's boys if U.S. intelligence is to be believed.
The situations in Ache and West Papua show up the war on terror for what it is: a selectively applied rationale for the global gang warfare crossfire that is modern 'civilisation'.
Is this the type of progress the US Senate wanted before it would continue the "normalisation" of International Military Education & Training to Indonesia ?
http://www.westpapuanews.com/articles/publish/article_59.shtml
Why did the killings happen now ? Was it opportunistic or was it timed to coincide with other events ?
Is this is the beginning of a renewed Indonesian campaign of brutality ?
In fairness to US Congress they voted to block military aid to Indonesia, it seems the Bush administration wanted it to continue.
However the aid was only blocked until the Indonesians conduct a thorough investigation into the killing of US citizens in West Papua in 2002.
And then what type of progress ?
Will anyone investigate the death of West Papuans ?
Please see www.westpapuanews.com to see the latest murders in the Indonesian
occupation of West Papua in Yalengga village.
10 people are already dead, at least 4 of these are reported to be known civilians. It is vwery likely that more civilians may be killed.
We should telephone the TNI offices and let them know the outside world is watching them and let them know what we think of their barbarity!
Please pick up the phone and call:
Wamena Army Office (Kodim) +62 969-31089
(you can call from UK for 15p/min by dialling 0905 3060197 first)
The killers are on the other end of the phone now. Tell them what you
think.

"Organisasi Hak Asasi Manusia sudah tahu tentang TNI di Papua"

"Semuah dunia tahu tentang TNI di Papua"
(All the world knows what TNI are doing in Papua)
Let us not deny this reality simply because our noble minds resist such horrors. This is the prices of our oil, gas, copper, timber and ignorance. Our heart goes out to West Papua and those suffering everywhere.
