“I urge us all to examine
ourselves, and acknowledge
that we are all closer to
perpetrators than we like to
believe. The United Kingdom
and United States
enthusiastically helped to
engineer the genocide, and
for decades enthusiastically
supported the military
dictatorship that came to
power through the genocide.
We will not have an ethical
relationship with Indonesia,
or so many countries across
the global south going
forward, until we
acknowledge the crimes of
the past, and our collective
role in supporting,
participating in, and,
ultimately, ignoring those
crimes.” - Joshua
Oppenheimer
on accepting
the BAFTA for Best Documentary
In 1965-1966, up to a million
Indonesians were massacred.
Hundreds of thousands more were
injured, disappeared, raped
and imprisoned without trial.
The United States and the United
Kingdom secretly welcomed and
supported the killings.
Many of the mass murderers are
still alive today and have never
been brought to justice – on
the contrary, the killers are
celebrated as heroes. For fifty
years the victims have been
asking for justice and for the
government to
Say Sorry for ‘65,
but Indonesia denies these crimes
even happened.
The new film THE ACT OF KILLING
has finally exposed the staggering
reality of Indonesia’s holocaust,
and given the victims the chance
they dream of – take action
now to support their call for
President SBY to
Say Sorry for '65.
Say Sorry
for ’65 is campaign initiated
by
Tapol
and supported by the
East Timor
and Indonesia Action
Network (ETAN).
