History
In October 1965, General Suharto accused the Communist Party of Indonesia of organizing a coup attempt after the death of six generals.[1] He overthrew non-aligned president Sukarno with British, Australian, and Statesian support[2] and began mass executions of communists and suspected leftists. Trade unionists and ethnic Chinese were also targeted.[3] In 1975, Suharto invaded East Timor, killing a third of the population. The CIA stated that this may not have been possible without U.S. support. Suharto ruled until 1998.[2]
