East Timor
Series :
Real Story
Description
In 1975, after almost 400 years of Portuguese rue, the tiny island nation of East Timor declared its independence. Nine days later, Indonesia invaded. The conflict continues still, with well over 200,000 deaths among the East Timor rebels â amounting to almost one third of the native population. Jardine's concise history tells of East Timor's heroic resistance against incredible odds, and of the military and diplomatic support Indonesia receives for its genocidal cause from the industrial West. Jardine also suggests ways you can help this long-suffering nation gain the peace, freedom and justice it deserves.Stock Information
