· US Intelligence Tapping Phones of Indonesian Civilians
Investigative journalist Allan Nairn reveals that U.S. intelligence officers in Jakarta are secretly tapping the cell phones and reading the SMS text messages of Indonesian civilians. Some of the Americans involved in the spy operation work out of the Jakarta headquarters of Detachment 88, a US-trained and funded para-military unit which is part of Kopassus, the Indonesian army"s special forces famed for abduction, torture, and assassination. The news comes as Congress weighs whether to send more military aid to Indonesia.
