#1 "The travel warnings affect tourism, ... business travel and most importantly education exchange"

Cause, meet effect.

#3 DIdn't Indonesia let the Bali bombers go or give him a light sentence or something? Didn't they go particularly hard on an Aussie chick with drugs?

Perhaps a lesson on cause & effect is long overdo.

#4 Australians weren't the targets of terrorism in the US or the UK, whereas the Muslim fanatics in Indonesia wanted to kill Australians. There is a reason why the opposing force in Australian wargames always looks remarkably like Indonesia.

#6 They just shot two Christians "instigators" but let of big time Jihadist instigator Bashir lightly.

#7 "There needs to be a greater understanding of each others situation, our differences and an understanding of each other's internal processes."

#8 INDONESIA has complained to Australia that its travel warning system is harming its economy, deterring new investment and forcing language students to other countries.

- tap, tap, tap -, nope, nothing there.

Why is it the Islamic world has such a hard time with cause and effect?

"We know that some of them are going to Malaysia."
