U.S. WAR CRIMES DURING cP iQE1TI ,B OE.EP TION REVEALED
Moscow TASS International Service in English 1058 GMT 20 Jul 71 L
[Text] Washington July 20 TASS-Monstrous crimes committed by American intervention-
ists and their Saigon flunkeys during the so-called "Phoenix" operation in South
Vietnam have come to light at a meeting of the House subcommittee on foreign
operations and government .information. The testimony at the subcommittee was
given by W~ Colby, former head of the American "pacification" program in South
Vietnam. The "Phoenix" operation which was organised, by the Central Intelligence
Agency and officially aimed at "neutralisation~o.f the enemy infrastructure" but
which actually means genocide against the South Vietnamese population, was a,
component part of this program.
Colby admitted that as a result of such "neutralisation" 20,587 South Vietnamese
citizens were killed in the period from 1968 to May 1971, Member of the sub-
committee 0. Reid has shown official instructions of the American command which
mentioned women and teenagers among persons subject to destruction?
Chairman of the subcommittee W. Moorhead has reported that he knew cases when
South Vietnamese, who- refused to give bribes to representatives of "the local
authorities", were' put on the list of "suspects".
The crimes by the American military in Vietnam, the policy of genocide carried out
by the United States there, are giving rise to growing indignation in the United
States itself. Prominent Politician E. McCarthy, who ran for the presidency from
the Democratic Party in 1968 elections, published .in the recent issue of the NEW
REPUBLIC magazine a poem which tells about brutal assassination by an American
soldier of a 6-year old Vietnamese boy, The public resolutely demands the most
thorough investigation into the United States military crimes and punishment of
those who bear responsibility for the crimes.

But after scrutinizing those documents, it is apparent that they have nothing to do
with the present struggle of the Indonesian working people. Their statements
are full of humble tribute to and veneration of the great helmsman and his slogan
of "Armed revolt now," alleging that a brilliant revolutionary atmosphere prevails
throughout Asian countries, especially in Indonesia.
The Adjitorop group is stubbornly propagating Maoist slogans like The China road
is the correct road." "Power grows out of the barrel of the gun". "Encircle cities
from the countryside."
In venerating Mao, the Adjitorop group said that Marxism-Leninism has reached the
stage of Mao's ideas and thanked the great helmsman for his support and assistance
to the Indonesian people's struggle. However, the composers of the above letter
did not mention the Peking-supported tragedy that hit the Indonesian people.
In the past few years the Maoists have continued to instigate the communists and their
allies to take the road of adventurism. They repeatedly expounded the rotten theme
of Indonesia being in the midst of violent revolution and that history obliges the
PKI to embark on the road of armed revolt now.
It is regrettable that as a result of Peking's instigation some Indonesian communist
leaders in 1965 supported the action of a handful of officers. This provided the
reactionaries with a pretext to mobilize the police and army to crush the PKI and
its allies. The adventure resulted in the elimination of thousands of Indonesian
frontline fighters. More than 150,000 democrats are still languishing in concentra-
tion camps without due process.
But even after the national democratic forces had been crushed the Maoists con-
tinued to incite the Indonesian people to launch a people's war. By claiming that
all of Indonesia was being engulfed by the flames of the struggle, the Maoists
attempted to create the impression that some communists had given their support
to the people's struggle, and therefore instigated them to embark on adventurism.
In their efforts to prove that the ideas of the great helmsman are scoring more
victories in Indonesia, the Maoists directly bie:trayed the Indonesian communists.
For example, Peking publications have leaked.: out information on the location of
patriotic forces in East Java. The ING REVIEW wrote: Guerrillas are operating
near Malang, Kediri, Banjuwangi, Djember, and Eiitar. They disclosed not only the
location of the guerrillas, but also the hiding places of members of the Central
Committee.
After receiving such information the Djakarta reactionaries mobilized their police
and soldiers to crush the patriots. As a result the patriots suffered heavy losses.
Judging from Peking's big-power chauvinism and the activities of the Adjitorop group,
it seems that they are attempting to turn Indonesia into a testing ground for
adventurism and superrevolution. By advocating an armed revolt they are actually
advocating needless losses on the part of the Indonesian. patriots.
PEOPLE'S DAILY wrote that the more people that are killed by the reactionaries the
greater the revolutionary forces will grow, and that it will speedup the reactionaries'
downfall. This sinister slogan is inspired by the Maoists, who humiliated the
Indonesian people and other Asian peoples, whom they considered as blind followers
of their schemes, for the establishment of the great Han hegemony in Southeast Asia.
The recently published document of the underground Indonesian Marxist-Leninist party
correctly evaluated Maoist actions as a betrayal of the Indonesian people's interests.
Lenin taught us that to make a revolt a success, it must not be founded on a plot or
a party- A~~ dbPor i'&gsod'2b(',ff'IfP&'`tlft &80R01720R001100060032-5
