 The “Final Solution”
 The Systematic Murder Of Moluccan Christians
 
 The belief that Indonesian's President Abdurahman Wahid, a.k.a Gus Dur do not 
really control his arm forces, especially the TNI-AD has swiftly evolved from 
frightening suspicion into undisputed fact. Wahid is avoiding confrontation with the 
military because he refused to operate based on True North principals. As H.S. 
Dillon, a member of Indonesia’s National Commission on Human Rights so 
eloquently described;” Wahid is a politician first, What he wants most of all is to 
stay in power, and he is not willing to do anything to jeopardize that.” Meanwhile 
more than 4000 Moluccans haven been killed so far by the Lashkar Jihad vigilantes. 
It was widely reported that the military is aiding the Jihad forces with automatic 
weapons, mortars and aided by military personnel.
 The special forces of TNI-AD) better known as Kopassus has been seen training 
Moslems in Ambon for the sole purpose of fossilizing the Christian population. The 
leader of the jihad forces, Jafar Umar Thalib were known to have some friendly 
meeting with Governor Latuconsina and Chief of Police, Firman Ghani. Just recently 
the military regional commander, general I Made Yasa told reporters that the 
reason the island of Saparua was destroyed by the Moslems, because the 
Christians won't allow his forces to protect them. 
 The fact of the matter is, the military pretend to be the protector of the people, 
but in reality they are still actively aiding the Moslems in destroying the Christians 
population in the Moluccan islands. It is obvious that the military and the Moslem 
jihad have a “symbiotic” relationship. The military like to preserve their dual 
function in the Indonesian society, while on the other hand the fundamentalist 
Moslem would see that Indonesia become an Islamic state. It's inaccurate to say 
that what happen in the islands is a result of a sectarian war between Moslems 
and Christians.
 In other words what happen in the Moluccan islands is the result of a “ State 
Sponsored Genocide “ as well as what happened when Hitler massacred the Jews 
; a “State Violence” leveled upon us. This fact can further be seen by a recent 
statement made by Indonesia foreign Minister, Alwi Shihab concerning six Moluccan 
men that jump over the fence of the Swiss embassy to request political asylum. 
Shihab stated: “ The tragedy of the government of Switzerland granting political 
asylum to these six men is; it won't change the situation or will lead to a solution 
in the Moluccan islands. 
 Imagine the people that conspire to drive us to the sea and try to wipe us out of 
our sacred lands are given a license to commit “ ethnic cleansing” sponsored by 
the state. So far our people have been slaughtered and many disemboweled, many 
communities on the islands have been scorch to the ground, people are driven 
away from their land, thousands of homeless people as well as orphans, more than 
1000 churches have been burned.
 
 Yet Ali Shibab had the audacity to say that the world should pay attention; that 
sometimes information that came out of the islands is inaccurate and exaggerated. 
Outrageous!!!! There are even international laws that protect polar bears, whales 
and eagles. Yet the Indonesian government think it's just fine to kill our people and 
try to put their own spin to it which usually lead to lies.
 
 Just like the Nazi time, the “Final Solution” was not openly publicized by the 
Nazis and thus it took longer for information to reach the free world. Every attempt 
was made to fool the victims and thereby prevent or minimize resistance. 
Nevertheless, by December 1942, news of the mass murders and the plan to 
annihilate European Jewry was publicized by the Jewish press. Thank God what 
happen to us occur during the internet era, so Mr. Shihab and his terminators, the 
lashkar jihad vigilantes can’t get away with this mass murder leveled against the 
moluccan people. He will definitely be one of the people responsible for the blood of 
more than 4000 moluccans.
 
 Mr. Shihab also mentioned that there's a possibility of foreign intervention in the 
granting of political asylum to the six moluccan men. The fact of the matter is that 
there's a strong tradition in Indonesia of standing defiant against international 
pressure and blaming your own shortcomings on an international plot. It's a 
convenient scapegoat.
 
 How much compensation do you think ought to be paid to the Moluccan people 
who was raped emotionally, financially, culturally, economically for more than 50 
years by the Indonesian government? What would you want for their sons and 
daughter if they had been raped even once?
 
 Just imagine; what would you have done if a stranger force himself into your land 
and raped and killed your wife and children in front of your own eyes. Then they 
tell you that they are not going to kill you because they want you to suffer.
 
 We as Moluccan-American should not remain silent against the atrocities leveled 
upon our people in the Moluccan a.k.a the Spice Island. We've had enough 
promises. Now we want results! We demand the following:
 
We want to remind America that this beloved America was founded on 
Christian principals, a nation that has encourage tolerance of all culture and 
religion including Islam, can not stand by idly without giving up its claim as a 
nation of justice and moral conviction. I repeat, the United States can’t let 
this “ State Violence” against our people to continue even for just one 
more minute. If America has the power to open the world's mouth when it’s 
own citizen was slaughtered in East Timor, with great confidence I believe as 
a Moluccan-American; America will again come to the rescue, just as always. 
We strongly urge the United States to intervene on moral grounds in the 
most expeditious manner so that further blood shed can be averted and the 
healing can begin.Fifty some years ago the United Nation through the “ Round Table 
Agreement”, agreed with claim by the Moluccas that it had the right of 
self-determination, i.e. an independent state. And today we ask, if Indonesia 
seeks to be an Islamic state and if the Ambonese are singled out to be the 
victim of “ State Violence “ because they are in fact ethnically and 
religiously different from the rest of Indonesia, and if centuries of old truce 
pacts among villages of Maluku have been permanently broken because of 
central policies from Jakarta, then Maluku should never be part of Indonesia. 
It's a conspiracy committed by Soekarno and Van Rooyen dan allow the 
Indonesian arm forces to annex Maluku into Indonesia in the same way Iraq 
tried to annex Kuwait but failed because of action taken by the United 
States. Again we urge the United States to come to the rescue and allow 
the Moluccan Christians to secede from Indonesia and become an 
independent state or through plebiscite to become the 51st state of the 
United States. When it the course of human Events, it becomes necessary for one People to 
dissolve the Political Bands which have connected them with another, and to 
assume among Powers of the Earth, the separate and equal Station to which 
the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent Respect to 
the Opinions of Mankind requires that they should declare the causes which 
impel them to the Separation. We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that 
all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with 
certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit 
of Happiness – That to secure these Rights, Government are instituted 
among Men, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed, 
that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends, 
it is the right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new 
Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its 
Power in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety 
and Happiness. (Thomas Jefferson – United States Declaration of 
Independence). Again aside to what happen in the Round Table Agreement, 
we as a people have the right to form our own new government whenever 
any form of government becomes destructive and prevent us from exercising 
our God given unalienable rights which are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of 
Happiness. This is definitely the case of the Moluccan Christians. Therefore 
we will exercise our inalienable right to secede from the Devil itself, the 
Indonesian government or become the 51st state of the United States of 
America.We ask the United States government and the American people to use its 
influence as the only legitimate superpower and moral conscience on the 
globe, to intervene( by way of arming the Moluccan Christians) on behalf of 
the Moluccan Christians to the right of “ Self Determination”, the right to 
freely pursue our economic, religious , and social development.The US and the world community should not consider economic and IMF aid 
to a regime that is knowingly willing to sacrifice a Christian minority for 
political gain.The US should urge Ms. Mary Robinson to form an international tribunal a la 
the Nuremberg Trials to bring the killers of the moluccan people. A list but 
definitely not an exhaustive list consist of : Speaker of the House Amien Rais, 
Foreign Minister Alwi Shihab, General Suadi Marasabessy, General Wiranto, 
General Djaja Suparman, General Sudi Silalahi, Jafar Umar Thalib(leader of the 
Jihad vigilantes), General I Made Yasa, Governor Saleh Latuconsina, General 
Firman Ghani and Gus Dur (due to his incompetence to stop those killers).    Koos Sahanaja,
 Secretary
