OK, it's not ethnic, national or religious, so it falls outside the radar, but is there even a footnote on Indonesia 1965-66? Something from 500,000-1,000,000 murdered, the drainage canals of the padi fields flowing with blood. In view of the numbers alone, shouldn't it at least merit a discussion, even if only to reject it as 'genocide', but still to give pointers to how one might deal with such instances that might otherwise fall between the cracks (of skulls)? Especially given that celebratory NYT front page banner headline when the coup/counter-coup occurred, and given recent revelations of some kind of US complicity in the preparation of lists.
Reading of the initial US press coverage of the Venezuelan coup reminded me of the Indonesian one.
