This review is from: Generations of Resistance: East Timor (Cassell Global Issues) (Paperback)
Excellent and Disturbing. Steve Cox's photographs bring home the tragedy and betrayal of East Timor. Many people are still not aware of the brutal 2 decade occupation of East Timor by the Indonesians- all accomplished with western (mainly British and American) arms. Accomplished with Western complicity. The brutality that occurred in East Timor far eclipsed that of other conflicts (e.g. Iraq, Kososvo) that the West valiantly intervened in, yet not only was there little if any protest from Western governments, but arms sales continued unabated for years. The photographs in this book are powerful indeed and ought to provoke any thoughtful observer to question why did we (the western governments) support Indonesia. A classic example of potent photojournalism.
