"Armed and financed by Western corporations, Indonesia is waging a brutal but unreported war against a tribal people with little more than bows and arrows to defend itself. The West Papuan conflict is a war for gold, timber and cultural supremacy." (ECOLOGIST) The author discusses the violence occurring in West Papua where "Indonesian soldiers have been burning villages, attacking civilians, raping women and killing men in a widespread and planned military operation."
