But whilst the US & UK governments speaks out strongly about Burma, they STAY SILENT about Indonesian oppression in West Papua. Why? …to protect Western multi-nationals like BP and Rio Tinto’s commercial interests in Indonesian-occupied West Papua.

For the moment it’s impossible for the people inside West Papua to campaign peacefully for independence from Indonesia….unless they want to sign their own death certificate. That’s why they NEED YOU to speak out NOW on their behalf… to let the leaders of the US & UK know that you’re not prepared to stand by and witness the Indonesian military wipe out the indigenous West Papuans from the face of their own Land.

So … here’s your chance MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD for FREE WEST PAPUA!

Yesterday in his speech at the Labour Party Conference in Bournemouth, England, the UK Prime Minister, GORDON BROWN, spoke these words:     

“There is a golden thread of common humanity that across nations and faiths binds us together and it can light the darkest corners of the world.

And the message should go out to anyone facing persecution anywhere from Burma to Zimbabwe: human rights are universal and no injustice can last forever.”

Please E-MAIL Gordon Brown the following message (including your name & address):

“NO INJUSTICE CAN LAST FOREVER”

Free West Papua Campaign QUOTATION:

“Ever since the Indonesians set foot on Papuan soil, human rights abuses have been the rule of the day.

In antiquity, or the dream time, the Indonesian quest had been Papuan slaves and the birds of paradise.

Since 1962, however, the quest has been the vast mineral deposits (gold, copper, nickel, oil, etc.), the vast virgin forest with its timber and the ‘empty’ land. The West Papuans have had to be removed from their land by hook or by crook.

We have struggled for more than 30 years and the World has ignored our cause.

You can help end this evil.

Imagine for a moment swapping lives with relatives of the survivors and the dead?

How long could you endure the terror? Wouldn’t you desperately pray for help? Help from anywhere, from anyone?

Do you want to know the really frightening truth? These people’s last and only hope is you. Governments don’t want to know or care.”

Moses Werror: West Papuan independence leader
