" US leaders who supported crimes against humanity in Indonesia and elsewhere..."

That would have to be categorised as a wild, unsubstatiated comment. To my knowledge, no US leader has ever supported "crimes against" humanity, anyway. Whatever problems Timor has, it is the Timorese who have to solve them. Australia cannot afford to fix failed states any longer.

ttbn,
"Wild, unsubstantiated comment"? You must be kidding.

I'm pretty sure ASIO even helped the CIA with the Khmer Rouge and Pol Pot.

I do agree with you completely that we need to worry about ourselves.
What about whats happening in the Philippines at the moment too...
