That is the lowest estimation. Other version say more than one million. But actually those victims were communists from Indonesian communist party (PKI). They killed when Indonesian Military, civilian Muslim task force (BanSer) from Indonesian biggest Muslim organization Nahdlatul Ulama (NU), and people launched communist cleansing campaign after PKI kidnapped and Killed six army generals. And actually this was a revenge attack. Before this counterattack, PKI frequently attacked Ulama and Muslims activist -mainly from NU- attack masjids and madrassa in village area. There were many Muslims and military soldiers that have been killed by atheist PKI.
• 200,000 were slaughtered in East Timor in 1975 by General Suharto with US support.
This was claim from Timorese Bishop Belo. But this number of victims is too high or even impossible.
• 750,000 civilians were driven from their homes in East Timor by Indonesian forces in 1999 and 10,000 were killed.
In 1999 President B.J Habibie gave East Timor province an option to make referendum. Pro-liberty Timorese won the referendum and later establish an independent country. Resident from other Indonesian provinces decided to leave Timor and back to their home in other provinces because all of Indonesian government institution must move from Timor, and there was no safety guarantee if Indonesians still live in East Timor. A number of pro-Indonesian militias also left Timor and moved to Indonesia. So, how can the writer say they driven by Indonesian forces ?. And about 10,000 were killed, that just a claim.

Asalaamu Alaikum Wr Wb, brother wherever there are massacres then there is usually involvement by the west.
According to the website below more than 800,000 died by the hands of Suharto, only Allah knows exactley how many.
A number of Indonesian military officers/soldiers were trained by U.S. That;s true. But it's incorrect if some people say Indonesia is American's puppet.
About invasion to East Timor. That's right if Indonesian government was supported by U.S and their Allies. But U.S and their allies stop their support and turned into support for East Timor independence, few year after East Timor was invaded. According to Bishop Belo, 200,000 Catholics and non-Muslims East Timorese people were disappeared after Indonesian force (that dominated by Muslims) came to East Timor. But there is no proof for this claim. Brother Hamza, this was an anti-Islam propaganda.
About Papua. Honestly, I often thinking if Indonesian government treat Papuan very bad and unfair, and I understand if they want to establish their own country. Also, there is an American gold mining company in Papua namen Freeport mc Moran inc. And I also wonder why Indonesia military and police look like work for Freeport.

True.
This does not change the fact that the US government had a hand in creating political and social turmoil in Indonesia during 1960s when they were afraid that Indonesia would go totally communist as Indonesia then was fully democratic and even allowed communist political party and social groups to exist.
And it has been proven through recently declassified information from Pentagon and CIA that the US government was active in providing Suharto and his men political, financial, technical, and military support to carry out the killing spree.
In 1999 President B.J Habibie gave East Timor province an option to make referendum. Pro-liberty Timorese won the referendum and later establish an independent country.

Before they left Timor, the military and their militia groups went on killing spree and destroyed much facilities. The military also murdered a person who was very very dear to me.

True. I am really sorry to hear it.
But this 'kill and destroy' action was not under the command of U.S.
In my posts above I only want to say if invasion to East Timor was responsibility of Indonesian govt. Although U.S govt urged Indonesian govt to invade East Timor, Soeharto can deny this request. But he didn't deny it.
Re: The terrible massacre and atrocities of America
and the ignorance of some muslims who say we are proud to be american what is there to be proud of.. look at the state of your government and your own people

And if in the process millions of Muslims are killed then it is just a war collateral (end justifies the mean) and well some Muslims deserve to die.

My friend countless people have suffered and are still suffering directly or indirectly at the hands of the Americans. There may not be justice in this world but on the day of judgement there will certainly be recompanse for every sin committed towards every soul!
" But how (will they fare) when we gather them together against a day about which there is no doubt, and each soul will be paid out just what it has earned, without (favour or) injustice?
Quran Surah 3 Verse 25
"And the Book (of Deeds) will be placed (before you); and thou wilt see the sinful in great terror because of what is (recorded) therein; they will say, "Ah! woe to us! what a Book is this! It leaves out nothing small or great, but takes account thereof!" They will find all that they did, placed before them: And not one will thy Lord treat with injustice.
