@ghdtreb Two of the killers, Yunus Yosfiah and Christoforus Da Silva, should be tracked down so justice can be done. Surely some good Indonesians can see to it the job is gone.

All Indonesians should be allowed to see this film. It is only the cowards in the Indonesian government who is stopping the truth being heard because it will just show them up as the corrupt criminals they are. The Australian government stands condemned as traitors for approving the approving the invasion in the first place and doing nothing to seek justice.
