The Dutch have murdered the
Indonesian republic, at least as
it existed from the end of World
War II until just the other day.
Australian delegate w. F.
Hodgson described the Dutch
surprise attack correctly to the
United Nations Security Council
as repeating what Hitler did to
the Netherlands in 1870"
Hodgson called the snea k
Dutch blitz 1.-The first clearcut
deliberate violation of the UN
charter made so far by any men,
Der. He said the consequences
must "be expulsion tof HOilandD
from the UN."
1t was not only the Dutch
trigger linen who killed the re-
public, however. In this murder
there were accessories before the
event. Some nations shot down
Indonesians themselves. S o m e
armed and financed the Dutch.
Some, in the UN, blocked pre-
liminary action to stop tn e
crime when intertion to COM
NIT it was already plain. Some,
not foreigners, but Indonesians,
disarmed their own people who
had fought so bravely in 1916
AZ so that they could no longer
fight in 1913.
BRITISH SHARE GUILT
The nation that shot down
Indonesians is Britain. British
troops landed in the country,
whose II million people pro-
claimed independence after jap
an fell, in September 1945. They
used not only their own troops
but also japanese garrisons
which had technically "surren-
dered" but still had their arms,
to seize key republican centers.
These were later handed over to
the Dutch, who had retained no
footholds in Indonesia after they
lost it to Japan.
The theory was tn a t n e

squeeze wealth out of IndOne-
STA for 800 years, were still its
"rightfuI owners" That the Bri-
fish did not hand over more was
due to two factors: staunch In
donesian resistance and a UN
resolution, introduced by tn e
Soviet Ukraine, noting that Bril-
tain was still using Japanese
ex-enemies against friendly
people.
The British later withdrew.
The wly-arrived Dutch forces
who took over the job in 1916
were largely marines trained
and equipped in Camp Lejeune
and other u. S. marine bases
during the war. The arms the
Dutch used came from American
lend lease stocks, which were
supposed to be for war against
Japan and Germany only.
When this was public ly

sibility.
