Journal "Timor Leste" no. 1, September 27, 1975 This issue contains: the insurrection declaration made by FRETILIN on the name of the Timorese people, which they consider was being violated by UDT. They describe that organization as “agents of imperialism”, and state that there are no other paths for total independence of East Timor other than a revolution. It also contains the declaration of the Timorese Armed Forces stating that they are a nonpartisan organization, but under the circumstances and realizing the characteristics of FRETILIN and UDT, they would have to choose the side of the former. The main article brings up the importance of the revolution to East Timor, remarking that FRETILIN’s main objective is to build a Timorese society without agents that exploit the people. At the end, there is a text written by the Popular Organization for the Timor Women, discussing the role of the Timorese women in the revolution.
Journal "Timor Leste" no. 2, October 4, 1975 This issue contains: a letter from FRENTILIN to its members calling for union in such difficult times, mostly saying that the foreign forces would try to explore the so-called “tribalism” and arguing that the various groups involved in the revolution (Armed Forces, Militias, Civil Society and so on) should be united and resolve their problems and disagreements through discussion. The editorial discusses the ex-commander Lemos Pires and his approximation with UDT, with the Portuguese government choosing to remain in silence. An article calls on the people to leave aside all their old practices (like racism) in benefit of the revolution’s success and, therefore, allow for the rise of a new society. Other important information includes the support of 49 foreign governments for FRETILIN, as well as of organized groups of civil society (like Australian student groups).
