[Kabar-Irian] Clarification

There have been reports from a number of sources including  Pacific Media
Watch <pacific_media_watch at lists.c2o.org> that report protests at the
Freeport mine.

Included are claims of pipeline damage, assaults on the Jakarta freeport
office and a general shutdown of operations. KI has confirmed with
multiple sources in Timika and jakarta that this is categorically not the
case.

The news item seems to refer in fact to incidents from 2005. Either that
or it is just wrong information.
