Andre Vltchek - Syria or Southeast Asia – The West lied, lies, and always will

The winners get to write history, and the South Eastern Asian countries that the West bombed back to year zero were made into vassal states singing and praising the West for saving them from the "communists". But I wonder how much we in the West have been lied to as well? KV


I'm sitting at the splendid building of the Singapore National Library, in a semi-dark room, microfilm inserted into a high-tech machine. I’m watching and then filming and photographing several old Malaysian newspapers dating back from October 1965.
These reports were published right after the horrible 1965 military coup in Indonesia, which basically overthrew the progressive President Sukarno and liquidated then the third largest Communist party on Earth, PKI (Partai Komunis Indonesia). Between one and three million Indonesian people lost their lives in some of the most horrifying massacres of the 20th century. From a socialist (and soon to be Communist) country, Indonesia descended into the present pits of turbo-capitalist, as well as religious and extreme right-wing gaga.
The United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Holland and several other Western nations, directly sponsored the coup, while directing both the pro-Western treasonous factions in the military, as well as the religious leaders who stood, from the start, at the forefront of the genocide.
All this information is, of course, widely available in the de-classified archives of both the CIA and U.S. State Department. It can be accessed, analyzed and reproduced. I personally made a film about the events, and so have several other directors.
But it isn’t part of the memory of humanity. In Southeast Asia, it is known only to a handful of intellectuals.
In Malaysia, Singapore or Thailand, the Indonesian post-1965 fascism is a taboo topic. It is simply not discussed. “Progressive” intellectuals here are, like in all other ‘client’ states of the West, paid to be preoccupied with their sex orientation, with gender issues and personal ‘freedoms’, but definitely not with the essential matters (Western imperialism, neo-colonialism, the savage and grotesque forms of capitalism, the plunder of local natural resources and environment, as well as disinformation, plus the forcefully injected ignorance that is accompanied by mass amnesia) that have been shaping so extremely and so negatively this part of the world.
In Indonesia itself, the Communist Party is banned and the general public sees it as a culprit, not as a victim.
The West is laughing behind the back of its brainwashed victims. It is laughing all the way to the bank.
Lies are obviously paying off.sitting

“’Progressive’ intellectuals in Southeast Asia are, like in all other ‘client’ states of the West, paid to be preoccupied with their sex orientation, with gender issues and personal ‘freedoms,’ but not with the essential matters that have been shaping so extremely and so negatively this part of the world.”

Yes. The masses are being driven into poverty and early deaths worldwide, but they only care about identity politics.

“In Indonesia itself, the Communist Party is banned and the general public sees it as a culprit, not as a victim.”

Worldwide the masses have been programmed to regard socialism as evil. There are only a few tiny exceptions to this.

“In so-called Indochina, the West murdered close to ten million people, during the indiscriminate bombing campaigns and other forms of terror – in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.”

“Bullshit. No one died in Vietnam. You people are all idiots.”~ Franko

“The Indonesian coup took at least 1 million human lives. 30% of the population of East Timor was exterminated by the Indonesian occupation, which was fully supported by the West. The Thai regime, fully subservient to the West, killed indiscriminately its leftists in the north and in the capital. Nonetheless, the West is admired here, with an almost religious zeal.”

In 1985 the Vietnamese built McCain a loving memorial at the site [Trúc Bạch Lake] where McCain's plane was shot down in Oct 1967. Wikipedia has pictures of his memorial.

When McCain died (“I’ll always hate the gooks”) the people of Hanoi piled up commemorative flowers at his memorial. Bizarre but true.

“The U.S., British and French press agencies and ‘cultural centers’ are spreading disinformation through local media outlets owned by subservient ‘elites’.”

Throughout the world the masses believe whatever the lying media tell them. Not everyone believes the lies, but enough believe the lies to keep the rich in power. Not everyone is a Franko, but there are enough to ruin earthly existence.

“In Syria, hundreds of thousands have been killed by West-sponsored murderous extremists, millions exiled and millions internally displaced.”

“Bullshit. No one has died in Syria. Everyone in this entire blog is unqualified (except me).” ~ Franko
