The indonesian government and legal system has a lot to answer for. Had they not treated the last bombings as a joke this may not have happened.

fringe dweller I come from Belfast and all the IRA ever done was big note themselves and murder people and destroy lives, as all terrorists do.
These things didn't happen 100 years ago because the consequences would have been sharp and harsh. We in the west have gotten fat and soft. There is only one language these people understand and it's about time they were given a good lesson in it. It's about time we started making martyrs' of all terrorists and their supporters. We are deluding ourselves if we think they are going to stop or even decrease these atrocities, with the worlds media giving these acts prime time viewing we are turning these murdering pigs into superstars in the eyes of their followers. Zero tolerence is the go with these people and the punishment should fit the crime, say 10 minutes alone with the families of the poeple they kill sounds like fair justice to me.
Sorry about the rant but I have suffered from the backlash of acts like this for over 20 years of my life and know first hand what acts of terrorism do to everyday people and their loved ones.

I disagree, Indonesian has been hit by terrorism now for many years and it has been unfortunate that the western media ( at least the Australian media) portays the Indonesion justice system as a joke. Remember several of the previous Bali bombers are now facing a firing squad. I can guarentee you the Indonesian people want justice and we must support them to that end.

I agree Gazz
The KGB under Soviet rule knew exactly how to strike fear into people of this type. The fear they instilled was definitely not from idle threats or glitzy media coverage. Their methods worked, and worked 100% effectively. Nasty, but effective.

Those of you that have read the Cruicible will understand what misuse of religion can cause. The puppet masters that brainwash these simpleton fools are the true criminals. They have an agenda and they use the religion falsely to give moral grounding to the frontment who carry out the acts. There agenda has very little to do with religion and more to do with powerbrokering. Under whatever name they assume, they want one thing and that is power and that is all.

No cause can every justify the taking of a defenseless and innocent life.

It is stated in the forum posting guidelines that the topics of race, religion and politics should be avoided. These topics have the potential to cause heated arguments and are best avoided . Posts that breach the guidelines are liable to be deleted and we would rather not have to do that.

Just a reminder.
