...peace talks with the rebels collapsed. The fiercely nationalistic Acehnese have long resented what they consider Indonesia's illegitimate occupation. In 27 years of fighting between the military and the separatists, some 12,000 people have lost their lives. The military claimed the Peusangan villagers were killed during a shoot-out. But witnesses tell TIME that some of the eight males, from 11 to 20 years old, were shot in the head at close range when rampaging soldiers ran into them near a cluster of fish ponds.

Female characters are fine, but they must wear bikinis and have figures unlike any woman who isn't nine inches tall and made out of plastic.
