Estelle Platini<p>"The Jakarta Method: Washington's Anticommunist Crusade and the Mass Murder Program that Shaped Our World", by Vincent Bevins</p><p><a href="https://techhub.social/tags/Book" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Book</span></a> presentation: "In 1965, the U.S. government helped the Indonesian military kill approximately one million innocent civilians.
