Indonesia: Suicide bomber wounds 28 in West Java mosque

Good thing they're spending all that time and money to keep Indonesia "safe" from Christians and Ahmadis, eh? "West Java, for the first time a suicide bomber blows himself up inside a mosque. 28 [wounded]," from AsiaNews, April 15:

Jakarta (AsiaNews) - A suicide bomber blew himself up today at Taka mosque located in the police headquarters in Ciberon (West Java) a town about 300 km from Jakarta. The toll is about 28 wounded, including several policemen. The suicide bombing is the first in the country's history and took place shortly before the usual Friday prayers, while the faithful were gathering inside the building. According to authorities the attack was organized by a group of Islamic terrorists in revenge for the recent anti-terrorism operations carried out by the police.
General Suparna Parto, Chief Inspector of West Java, said the suicide bomber's explosive belt contained nails and other metallic material, and several fragments were found in the bodies of the wounded. According to the general, this system is typical of Islamic extremists in Indonesia.
According to Wawan Purwanto, an expert on intelligence, the attack marks a change of course in Indonesian Islamic terrorism and has shocked the population. "The explosion - he says - has taken place just inside a mosque during prayer." The expert stressed that so far no extremist group had ever attacked a mosque during Friday prayers. Purwanto said that the turnaround has already begun and now the terrorists are targeting other Muslims. "In the past - he says - the targets were symbols of Western power. Now all those who are against them, such as police, may be annihilated."

All they need to do to feel justified in killing fellow Muslims is to declare them apostates, because Muhammad prescribed death as the penalty for apostasy from Islam. And Qur'an 5:51 says that one who turns to unbelievers (specifically Christians and Jews) for friendship "is of them."

In these hours law-enforcement officials are considering increasing the alert status in the most sensitive areas of the country, to prevent new attacks.

Must have misunderstood Islam again.


Hmmmmmm. will CAIR make a MSM plea for calm and tell Muslims to get ready for MORE "backlash" as Muslims are blamed for this action by "Misunderstanders" that use the corrupted Quran's with lies about Muhammed and those evil People Of The Book.

Canada is now in a debate over the Covered-face issue as France has done for all Citizens.
But I can only guess that CAIR-canada and Imam's will embrace "profiling" and the Burka ban when Islamophobe Suicide-bombers in the West start to enter Mosques to slaughter 1000's of muslims as 19 Muslims did on 9/11/01 .
There mus be SOME closet Militant Christians and jews just waiting to slaughter civilians as a favour to God, just ask FibBrahim McHooper that keeps claiming that ALL faiths have suicide bombers and misunderstandrers .

Muhammad has turned his followers into some kind of zombies, ruthless, brainless killer machines. They don't have any tiny fragment of humanity left in their hearts and souls.
Indonesians muslims beating Ahmadis to death...

""In the past - he says - the targets were symbols of Western power. Now all those who are against them, such as police, may be annihilated.""

As long as pious Muslims are around someone must die and it matters not who. Death is the official calling card of Islam. Those murdered Muslims?...Well they just were not Muslim enough. Do you see any Muslims or Muslim groups condemning the attacks or taking any action against the Muslim attackers? Muslims lemmings always need instruction from Imams or Mullahs...

Western Muslims will use this as a proof that the "radicals" have nothing in common with "true" Muslims since they even attack mosques but actualy they are just following Muhammads example:

"Before the apostle had left for Tabuk he had been approached by some men who said,
'We have built a mosque for the sick and the needy, for wet and for cold nights, and
we are anxious that thou shouldst come and pray therein.' He had replied, 'I am on the
verge of leaving, but when we return, we shall, if Allah willeth, pay you a visit and
pray in the mosque.' When he alighted at Dhu-Awan, an hour's ride from Medina , on
his return, information was sent down to him from Allah about the mosque. He called
two of his followers and said, 'Go to this mosque, whose people are unrighteous;
destroy it; burn it.' So they departed in haste and took a blazing date-branch to the
mosque. Although there were people in it, they burned and destroyed it. This was the
verse of the Koran revealed concerning this matter: 'And those who erected a mosque
out of opposition and unbelief and to cause a schism among the Believers -they will
say "We desired nothing but good". Allah knows they lie. Enter no such mosque.'"

This is from Muhammads earliest biography

. .so predictable. .squirrels will cop the blame once a mullah activates one of his two brain cells.

Nice one London Jim. You've given us a physiological basis for my contention that Islam is digital, either one or zero; that explains the EITHER/ORism of Islam.

Ta poker. ..posted that one a stones-throw-distance from the Natural History Museum, not a million miles from the Science one, inspired by the concept you aired.

I'll bet the riots in Afghanistan, etc. grow ever worse due to the amount of qurans that must've been destroyed inside the mosque!

Was there perchance a quran in that mosque which got desecrated as a result of the bombing? After all we care more about a book than about people right?

I get so confused.

"The explosion - he says - has taken place just inside a mosque during prayer."

Ho hum.

What goes around comes around.

C'est la vie.

hand out the candy!

Have the celebrations begun? Why not?

Hello London Jim:
These two bit muslims are short of a byte.
(a summary in seven words of why the two can never meet)

I blew that one London Jim. Let me try again.
It takes four two-bit muslims to make a byte.

The West is analog, Islam is digital.
(a summary in seven words of why the two can never meet)

the ''West'' is a rather vague terminology. .latitude and longditude combined make for more specific co-ordinates.

Good thing they're spending all that time and money to keep Indonesia "safe" from Christians and Ahmadis, eh?

Yes—and yet, there is never much outrage from Muslims over Muslims murdering other Muslims.

More:

"West Java, for the first time a suicide bomber blows himself up inside a mosque...."

Probably not the last time, though...this is a "time honored" technique in Muslim lands that have traditionally been less "moderate" than Indonesia.

Purwanto said that the turnaround has already begun and now the terrorists are targeting other Muslims. "In the past - he says - the targets were symbols of Western power. Now all those who are against them, such as police, may be annihilated."

Very, very true. "Takfir"—declaring your enemies "apostates" or "hypocrites" is such a handy doctrine...

You know what they say: first you go after the opposition, and then you go after the insufficiently enthusiastic. Islam is a cult of death: it doesn't believe in individual rights or the value of individual lives. It will never create functional society, and it will always require a victim to blame when their societies inevitably go bad. Genuinely peaceable Muslims should be on our side, because they should know that once the dirty kaffir have been taken care of, Muslims who simly want to live decent lives in peace will be the next targets.
