摘要

He was a despot, a cold-war monster cosseted by the West because his most plausible opponents were Communists. Behind his pudgily smooth, benign-looking face lay ruthless cruelty. The slaughter as he consolidated his power in the mid-1960s cost hundreds of thousands of lives. Tens of thousands were locked up for years without charge. After the invasion of East Timor in 1975, the Indonesian occupation led to the deaths of perhaps one-third of its people. Meanwhile, he was robbing his own country blind. Perhaps no leader's family anywhere has ever amassed so much ill-gotten loot. When he was forced to quit at last, the economy was in a tailspin and the stability he had boasted of creating proved an illusion.
机译:他是一个专制的,冷战的怪物,西方人对此很感兴趣,因为他最有说服力的对手是共产党员。无情的残酷残酷的表情在他矮胖的光滑,好看的脸庞后面。他在1960年代中期巩固权力时的屠杀使数十万人丧生。数以万计的人被关押了好几年没有收费。在1975年东帝汶入侵之后,印度尼西亚的占领导致其三分之一的人民死亡。同时,他正在抢劫自己的祖国。也许任何地方的领导人家都没有积累过如此多的不幸赃物。当他最后被迫辞职时,经济陷入困境,而他吹嘘的创造稳定性被证明是一种幻想。
