RoP Wrap-up: Indonesia - Ruggedtouch - 12-22-2006
Competing religions and ideologies that do not espouse the intolerance and revulsion of an alternate view are at a disadvantage to one ideology in particular that has not shed the violence and hatred that were prevalent when it emerged from 7th century Arabia. The result is all too frequently dead infidels

Risk of anti-Christian attack growing as Christmas approaches
Bomb threat made against Christian radio in Jakarta. More than 18,000 police officers will be deployed to protect places of worship across the Indonesian capital. Tensions are running high in Poso.
Jakarta (AsiaNews/Agencies) – A Christian radio station is threatened whilst authorities increase security details around Christian places of worship and community centres as fears of Christmas attacks grow.
On Saturday afternoon Radio Pelita Kasih, which is in Dewi Sartika in eastern Jakarta, received a phone call that threatened a bomb attack. Police and the bomb squad inspected the premises but found nothing. The radio station broadcast Christian music and religious programmes.
On Monday, Colonel Ketut Untung Yoga, spokesman for the police, announced that 18,000 police officers would be deployed to protect thousands of churches and other religious sites in Jakarta for fear of attacks by Islamic extremists. “Places of worship are our priority,” Yoga said.
In 2000 a series of coordinated bombs killed 19 people during the Christmas season.
On December 31, 2005, a market in a Christian area in the city of Palu (Sulawesi) was the scene of another attack that left seven people dead.
In both cases Jemaah Islamyah, a militant Islamist group thought to be linked with al-Qaeda, was blamed.
Indonesia is yet another instructive example of the on-going Islamic/jihad conquest—a ruthless, ongoing movement of ravenous seizure and obliteration of all cultures and societies it encounters.
Which inescapably segues into this little bit of happy-fun jihad news:
Quiz time: What despicable mass murderer for god was smiling and waving as he left walked away from his already reduced prison sentence for (what else?)… mass murder
Quote:ABU Bakar Bashir, the spiritual leader of regional terror network Jemaah Islamiah, has been cleared of involvement in two of Indonesia's most devastating attacks of recent times - the 2002 Bali bombings and the 2004 Marriott Hotel blast
Indonesia's highest court late yesterday overturned Bashir's 2004 conviction over the two atrocities, which killed 202 people and 14 people respectively.
The decision clears the way for Bashir, 68, to claim compensation for time he has served in jail.
He was released from a Jakarta prison in June to wild adulation after serving almost 26 months of a 2½-year sentence for terrorist conspiracy charges, but continued with the Supreme Court appeal in order, he said, to clear his name.
"He thanks God and says he is glad everything has now been revealed," his son Abdurrohim said late yesterday.
"We welcome this decision with great happiness. Hopefully it can become a signal that for all this time, everything was slander from the enemies of Islam who wanted to destroy the image of Indonesian Muslim preachers.
"We're happy the judges have made their decision according to the facts, and have taken into account nothing that was fabricated."
Wherever an Islamic majority gains a foothold, it destroys whatever culture and civilization it encounters in the name of God. Democracy is the opposite of this supremacist creed, which is why Islam recoils with such violence and hatred when it encounters freedom. And the fact that Western liberal democracy has and continues to forge ahead with human focused success makes the failings of a 7th century worldview that much more impossible to defend.
And then there’s this:
Two killed, schools burnt in South
Quote:(Bangkokpost.com, Agencies)
Insurgents killed two men and launched arson attacks in southernmost provinces, police said Wednesday.
A 33-year-old Buddhist man was shot and then set alight by gunmen who ambushed him in front of his house in Pattani late Tuesday night.
Police could not confirm if the former community police officer died of the four gunshot wounds or his burns.
Also Tuesday, a 27-year-old villager was killed in a drive-by shooting in nearby Narathiwat.
Militants also set fire to two government-run elementary schools in Pattani, while in nearby Yala province insurgents staged arson attacks on a local health office and a day care centre.
No one was injured in the arsons, which were carried out in the middle of the night.
I can joke about this stomach-churning sickness all day, and honestly, that's the only way you can handle it sometimes. But it's no joke. These are poor, everyday Buddhist peasants who bless animals, collect food for monks, and pray for peace—the <i>real</i> peace of harmony between divergent communities, not the peace of a world united in submission to precepts first laid down in the seventh century Arabian desert. They don't deserve this.

As the brave holy warriors in Thailand are checking off the hash marks on their score cards of murder, I suppose you’ll ignore this perspective: Pattani teacher dies from wounds
Quote:One of the two teachers who were shot by insurgents in Pattani Thursday morning passed away at midnight last night.
Chutima Rattanasamnieng, 34, a teacher at Ban Ta-gae School in Yaring district was taken to Songkhla Nakkarin Hospital in Hat Yai after she and her colleague were gunned down on a motorcycle while going to school.
Her colleague, Roongnapa Songsuwan, though hurt, survived.
Mrs Chutima was shot in the head and on the left leg. Doctors had to operate her on the head to remove the bullet. She was treated in ICU where she died.
Executives at Ban Ta-gae School announced the close of the school on Friday to boost morale of teachers. They have not decided when to open the school again.
<b>Mrs Chutima is the 61st teacher who was killed by insurgents in the southern unrest.</b>
The teachers are dying by the dozens, the schools are closing, and Islamic terror is dragging Thailand into the abyss of murder and ideologically based hatreds.
Just another <i>"isolated incident"</i>. One of 61 such similar <i>"isolated incidents"</i>.
