Australia. From one of these islands came Lt. Col. Alex Kawilarang, the military attache serving in Washington who was todefect to the rebel forces and lead the rebel contingent on Sumatra, the Indonesian island richest in natural resources.His Excellency President Gerald Ford, The White House, Washington, D.C., Dear Mr. President,As the widow of the late President Sukarno and being the only member of the family living overseas, I address myself toyou, being deeply alarmed and disturbed by numerous and persistent reports in the international press. For instance, theCIA is said to have spied on my husband: manufactured a fake film in order to slander the good name and honor ofSukarno: prepared an assassination attempt against him and conspired to oust him from power to estrange him from theIndonesian people by accusing him of collaborating with international communism in betrayal of Indonesianindependence, which of course was totally absurd.My husband has repeatedly informed me that he was fully aware of these immoral, illegal, subversive, anti-Indonesianactivities against his beloved Indonesia, his people, and against him personally.I would like to request from you, as well as from the responsible Congressional Committees in the United States a fullexplanation about these reports and reprehensible practices as carried out by an official United States GovernmentAgency in the name of several American Presidents and Governments.Both in 1958 and in 1965, the CIA directly interfered in the internal affairs of Indonesia. In 1958, this monstrous actionled to civil war. In 1965, it led to the ultimate takeover by a pro-American military regime, while hundreds of thousands ofinnocent peasants and loyal citizens were massacred in the name of this insane crusade against international communism.Still today, ten years later, many tens of thousands of true patriots and Sukarnoists are locked up in jails andconcentration camps being denied the simplest and most elementary human rights. American companies and aggressiveforeign interests are indiscriminately plundering the natural riches of Indonesia to the advantage of the few and thedisadvantage of the millions of unemployed and impoverished masses.I must now ask you, Mr. President, in the name of freedom and justice, in the name of decency in relations betweenstates and statesmen, between powerful nations and developing lands, in the name of the Indonesian people and theSukarno family: did the United States of America commit these hideous crimes against Indonesia and against the founderof the nation? Will your Government be prepared to accept responsibility for these evil practices? Over one hundredmillion Indonesians have been brainwashed, as was the rest of the World by the present regime's propaganda to believethat the communists carried out the insurrection. My countrymen, as well as everyone else, have the right to know thetruth of the historic facts. It will be the painful duty for America now to reveal the CIA involvement in Indonesia andrelease all information and documents relevant to who really initiated the terrifying bloodbath that led to the overthrow ofthe legal Government and to the inhuman treatment in house arrest lasting three years until my husband's death.In closing, I would like to strongly appeal to you, Mr. President, to use your influence with the military regime in Jakarta,to immediately free those many thousands of political prisoners, men and women, former cabinet ministers, writers andjournalists, who I know are entirely innocent of the crime of treason they have been accused of. If the United States wereto be instrumental in helping to improve the fate of so many thousands of courageous compatriots, I think the entireIndonesian nation would be grateful and Indonesians would regain their confidence in America's intentions towards theThird World.Respectfully, R. S. Dewi Sukarno, July 24, 1975What is not generally known about the complex Indonesian struggle is the role that was played by the then Vice Presidentof the United States, Richard M. Nixon, and the bitter aftermath that involved the sudden ouster of Allen Dulles' protege,Frank Wisner, who at that time was the head of the clandestine arm of the CIA. After Watergate, when Anthony Lukaswrote in his book Nightmare, about the growing mistrust between Nixon and the Director of Central Intelligence, RichardHelms, he could have added that since the 1958 Indonesian rebellion there were many in the CIA who made a career ofhating Nixon because of what he had done to Frank Wisner, among others. The Indonesian campaign began rathercasually as so many CIA ventures do. Few if any ever originate at the top. During an unguarded conversation inWashington the Indonesian military attaché mentioned earlier made it known to certain U.S. military acquaintances thatthere were many prominent and strong people in Indonesia who would be ready to rise against Sukarno if they were givena little support and encouragement from the United States. It happened that one of those U.S. military friends he talkedto was not a military man at all, but a member of the CIA. The provocative words got back to Frank Wisner, then theDeputy Director of Plans. He was in charge of the CIA's clandestine activity and he authorized agents to follow up on thatfirst conversation.The Indonesian attaché was wined and dined and encouraged to talk more. Reasons for the attache's return to Indonesiaon official business were successfully arranged. He was accompanied by CIA agents traveling under the cover of "U.S.military" personnel. During this visit they spoke with rebel leaders. They learned enough about the potential strength ofthis opposition to encourage the CIA to set in motion its biggest operation up to that date. In the Philippines there was astrong nucleus of military men, chief among them a Colonel Valeriano, who had been President Magsaysay's militaryassistant. He had also worked on paramilitary exercises with the CIA during the Magsaysay campaign against the leftistrebel Huk movement. This military group had gained considerable power during the Magsaysay tenure. Many of thesespecial warfare experts from the Philippines had volunteered for duty in South Vietnam in 1955 when the CIA was deeplyThe Hidden History Of Money & New World Order Usury Secrets Revealed at last!
