#1 There is insufficient evidence to link them to the October 1 attacks.

Guess they didn't use the 12V battery corectly!!

#2 That's going to make the Hindus in Bali even more upset. One of these days Bali is going to go its own way sans Indonesia if these goons don't wise up.

#3 I hope they choose kufr Indonesian government politicians as the target of the next attack... not much chance of that with the protection JI have seemingly been afforded thus far. I know where I won't be going on holiday next year.

#4 However callous it may sound, a few extra weeks of detention wouldn't have done a lot of damage to those they rounded up. One can only wonder if Indonesia remotely perceives how badly they are harming their international image with respect to fighting terrorism.

If Indonesia's sole intention is to appease their Muslim population regardless of all economic costs, they're doing a splendid job. I took a big beating here for my skepticism about Indonesia's determination to fight terrorism. There has been nothing to change my opinion in the least since then.

#5 Zenster, if I were an Australian, I'd consider this a declaration of war from Indonesia.

Free Bali!

#6 Indonesia will do as they usually do, nothing.

As for Bali the Indo muslims will simply send more muslims there and out breed the the natives. This is the way of allenism.

#7 Too right, RC! I'd wager that all Oz needs is one Islamist atrocity on their turf and all he|| will break loose. For how fiercely the diggers have fought by our side, I'd sure hate to piss them off.

Indonesia's repeated lack of outrage over Bali, a principal tourism revenue source, compared to their uproar over the much smaller Jakarta (i.e., Muslim) death toll tells the whole story.

I am rapidly coming to the conclusion that, no matter how catastrophic, whatever happens to this world's Muslim population will be richly deserved. Sadly, my sense of cynicism is outpacing all notions of realism with respect to this topic. My patience succumbed long ago.
