The role of the United States Ambassador to Indonesia, 'coupmaster' Marshall Green should not be overlooked.
One of the main plotters, Col Latief, was a close associate of Suharto, as were other key figures in the movement, and that Latief actually visited Suharto on the night before the murders.[1]
