      After 25 terrible years, steps are finally being taken that might bring the horrors to an end. Indonesia agreed to permit a referendum in August 1999 in which the Timorese were to be permitted to choose "autonomy" within Indonesia or independence from it. It is taken for granted that if the vote is minimally free, pro-independence forces will win.
