It does not surprise me, no... but I don't see the killings in Indonesia and our inaction there as related to the gang wars in Chicago or domestic killings in other places. In the US we have the ability to fix the conditions which give rise to the domestic violence, but not the will. With Indonesia, simple non-involvement of the CIA in Indonesia probably would have prevented bloodshed, but that's not the issue in Chicago, Detroit, etc. In Indonesia there was the growth of a population of people negatively disposed to the US and positively disposed toward Communism. Either case draws the CIA like flies, and you get coups and puppets or tyrants installed who can be relied upon to take "aid" bribes and leave the country accessible to US (and allies) businesses. In the USA, economic disparity leads to violence. There has never been a society with great economic disparity which did not produce high levels of violent crime, and there likely never will be. But the US, both the public and the leaders, are not willing to even consider doing anything about such disparity, and thus violence and suffering will increase.
