under Sharia law, infidels have the right to die in terrorist attacks and be executed by Islamic governments. So, it's all good...

#3   THREE Bali bombers have been executed by firing squad on their prison island in Indonesia, according to television station TV One.
Islamic militants Mukhlas, his younger brother Amrozi, and Imam Samudra were put to death for their lead roles in the 2002 Bali nightclub bombings.

A prison source confirmed the executions in a one-word SMS to journalist at Cilacap, near Nusakambang.

The SMS said "sudah' ("already").

TV One said the three Islamic militants responsible for the 2002 Bali bombings were executed around midnight at Nirbaya, an orchard some 6km from their prison on Nusakambangan Island in Central Java. The island is home to the prison where they spent their last years.

According to an AAP source, the bombers yelled "Allahu Akbar"("God is great") as they were taken from their cells.

They were guarded by 30 fully-armed Brimob policemen and taken to the execution site as part of a convoy of eight cars.
