Democratic (socialist/fascist) President Carter announces that respect for human rights will be “the soul of our foreign policy.”  A month previous, Carter authorized a near doubling of military aid to the dictatorship of Indonesia, which had invaded the former Portuguese enclave of East Timor.

       Postscript: During Carter’s four years in office over 200,000 East Timorese were killed by the Army of Indonesia.
