This book (127pg) discusses a very important, but often ignored event in history: the wholesale slaughter of communists and working class sympathizers in Indonesia. The name of the book "Constructive Bloodbath in Indonesia" is the authors sarcastic way of pointing out this lack of interest in what can only be described as a horrible, inhuman massacre. Started by the military, with the support, backing, and encouragement of amerikkka and britain, the massacre was carried out by different elements of society, all with clear instructions from the top and under the general control of the military. The main perpetrators besides the military itself were nationalist youth groups and reactionary islamic groups, both of whose political philosophies to this day focus an inordinate amount of hatred towards communists.
