Aceh: Indonesia launches biggest offensive since East Timor
'During GAM's war of independence, ... at least 10,000 killed since 1989... Military officers said 15 warships had arrived at Lhokseumawe to assist 27,000 soldiers and at least 13,000 police who will take part in what is expected to be a bitter offensive... "If TNI attacks [GAM] we will face it. This war will be recorded in Aceh history as the war against the second coloniser (the Dutch took Aceh 150 years go).'
