Indonesia: Explosion in bomb-making class at Islamic school kills teacher

It's so hard for Islamic schools to get good bomb-making teachers these days: it's a field in which it is hard to learn from one's mistakes. But anyway, how many Christian boarding schools have bomb-making classes? How many Jewish boarding schools have them? How many Hindu boarding schools? Why is Islam different in this way? I know it must be the Zionists' fault in some way, but I just can't figure out how.

"Explosion at Islamic school in Indonesia kills 1," by Ali Kotarumalos for the Associated Press, July 12 (thanks to Pamela Geller):

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — A man reportedly trying to show students how to make explosives was killed by a homemade bomb inside an Islamic boarding school in Indonesia, police said Tuesday.

School officials and students have prevented police from entering the building since Monday's explosion, local police spokesman Lt. Col. Sukarman Husen said.

But they discovered the body of the suspected bomb maker, a 30-year-old man identified only as Firdaus, on a bus Tuesday as it tried to leave the school compound, he said.

Eleven people have been taken in for questioning, Husen said, adding that police also confiscated a number of arrows and machetes.

Husen said the bombing victim was a treasurer at the school, but media reports alleged he was a former bomb trainee in the Philippine region of Mindanao. According to TVOne, he was killed in an unintentional explosion while training students about bomb-making.

Police are still persuading the school officials to let them enter the compound, Husen said.

National Police Spokesman Maj. Gen. Anton Bachrul Alam said the explosion was suspected to be from a homemade bomb being prepared to attack the police.

"Therefore they don't allow police to enter the boarding school," Alam told reporters in the capital, Jakarta. He added that two platoons, including soldiers, were around the complex.

The school on Sumbawa Island in central Indonesia came to police attention late last month, when a 16-year-old student was arrested for allegedly stabbing to death an officer. Police believe he belonged to an Islamic militant group, and they said he told his interrogators that police deserved to die for hunting down jihadists....

I always said that my catholic convent school education was deficient - now I know why; no bomb-making classes...

That's where we're going wrong, everyone. Having said that, teaching non-muslim kids to make bombs in class may be a necessary skill for the future...as well as firearms training. They'll likely need it before too long.

Only in the cult of Islam. Where else in the world can school officials stop police from doing their job?

And just HOW do a few teachers with raggedy beards and a bunch of boys "prevent" platoons of police from entering?

Bomb making teacher? In my day we taught ourselves out in the desert. Heck, before paranoia became institutional my chemistry text in HS had the formula for TNT right in a sidebar!

I hereby nominate Mt. Firdaus (wherever he may be) for "Teacher of the Year Award".

And I would contribute to a Scholarship Fund for Islamic students to emulate this Mr. Science.

I'm sure there must be something somewhere in the Quran or the millions of hadiths where the Big Mo also invented Chemistry.

Big Bang, little bang... what's the difference?

Go to it, boys! and may you all achieve the same success. The virgins are waiting.

We had fun in the Chemistry Lab at school trying to create explosions, for example there was the (probably apocryphal) story of a student dropping a large cube of sodium into a sink and blowing the bottom out. But in our case the teachers were trying to STOP us!

When savagery meets science...........blowups happen.

Allah willing firdaus to die without killing a single infidel, sometime in the past he must have made Allah angry so he now can get at most only 36 hourises, isn't Firdaus means Paradise? some paradise it is, to have TNT in there LOL

Ouch, looking at Jakarta Globe for more info on this I find some FGM nastiness from Indonesia ....you know, "female genital cutting", the practice usually being waved off as something African and wholly unconnected to Islam.

Apparently "Health Minister Endang Rahayu Sedyaningsih, who is also a doctor, has allowed this nonmedical practice to persist ....usually performed on newborn babies ....the type of female circumcision most commonly done in Indonesia was risky, since it often involved lacerations to the clitoris ....widely performed across the country ....the removal of the clitoris, had also been reported in the country."

Remember this when looking at all the peaceful Gulan Turk schools in the U.S., busily being set up by education jihadists.

As SEAL Team Six founder Richard Marcinko would say, "Another case of bombus interruptus!"

It's still in the OChem books :)

You racist islamophobes!

It has nothing to do with islam! That school and the teacher are racists building bombs to blow up non-Indonesians! Look at your own America! You kkk Xians blew up Black churches that you learned bomb making from your pedophile priests!

That leftards buy the above moral equivalencies from islamic apologists is appalling and frightening.


I just love it when the mahoundians do our work for us ! ! !

:-) Another own goal - here's hoping for many more to come

Class dismissed!

How could they have so horribly misunderstood Islam, which, afterall "is a religion of peace"?

Interesting. I spent some time in a yeshiva and must have missed "Bomb Making 101" classes taught by the rabbis.

My best friend, recently deceased, was a Roman Catholic priest on sabbatical; he seems to have missed the Christian version of those classes as well.

Where, oh where, did those poor misled Muslims get such insane ideas?

So, I guess it actually might have been relevant whether or not Obama spent his childhood years in a "madrassa" in Indonesia, rather than the rather eclectic Christian-named school he attended, wouldn't it?

They should throw the entire student body, the school staff, and the kitchen staff in jail...take some time to document them, sort 'em out...because you're sure to see them again..

I guess Muslims enjoy training with live munitions..

Yeah, those islam la bomba makers just hate those wrong number calls, just after ya connect the red and blue wires to the cell phone!

So anti-jihadists, keep those wrong numbers comin', right?

Hmmmmm, might be an idea there!

"I know it must be the Zionists' fault in some way, but I just can't figure out how."

Some possibilities:
1. They sold them faulty equipment! How else could you explain a top-notch scientist blowing himself up accidentally? What? He was the school treasurer!? Well I'd look through his book-keeping if I were you!
2. They have a Zionist plant in the student body. (Not a reference to surgical implants. But who knows? Those Jooz are capable of anything! Right?)
On further reflection I think the plant was a GM modified geranium which gave off halucinogenic vapours. The school officials are currently searching through their mail orders to see if any geraniums were posted from Israel.
3. Firdaus. Sounds Jewish to me. Well there you have it. Firdaus was the plant! You can put those geraniums back now lads!


Looks like a Casablanca moment to me....

Madrassa Principal: "I am shocked, shocked, to find that bomb-making is going on here."

Of course Casablanca isn't in Indonesia it's in......

Ah.

Such a lovely religion. LOL!

Yet another Mohammedan eager to be nominated for the 2011 Darwin Awards.

I am astonished at the glee and gloating of some of the commentators on JW on this topic. Here was a dedicated teacher, a specialist no doubt in Media Studies and the Quran, who was pressed into service as a Chemistry teacher when the regular guy was away on Terrorist Familiarization Courses in Jakarta. His charitable attempt to brew green tea in class for the suffering, deprived students temporarily in his care, unfortunately, went askew when he added a wrong ingredient. Such could happen to anyone.
We ought to be commiserating with his several wives and varied families, not making facetious comments and funnies ... let us hope that he is allowed into the Paradise Spattered Bodies Repair Facility where he is able to pull himself together piece by piece, and become one again. It is the charitable least we can do. Amen to that I say.

I went to the very first "smart kid" school in the USA way back when... and we blew shit up all the time! That was put to an end when one of my friends blew most of his hand off after bringing a bomb to school that he made at home.

Apart from that, I personally melted through a sink and got a mighty good chunk of detention for doing so.

Anyway, ONE down... 1.5 billion to go!

Is bomb making in the Koran? I searched and searched, but can't find it. Nowhere does Allah talk about how Mohammad used bombs against enemies of Islam. Maybe bomb making, like kufr inventions of all kinds (AK-47s, Boeing 747s, Samsung smartphones, flat screen TVs, penicillin, iPad tablets) all are bid'ah, so is haram? Allah did not dictate the Koran into an iBook, nor did he post it on the internet for the faithful to read it online. What was he thinking?

Oh my, that wily moon-god Allah has fooled me again, a non-believer, to look for innovation in the Koran, what a kidder. But I know the All Knowing, Merciful and Compassionate one never fools his own true faithful, so why trick this teacher into committing haram act of bid'ah before his students? Was it a test of his faith? Ah, but you can't kid the kidder... The punishment is death.

By teacher committing haram act by (not in Koran) making bombs, Allah punished him for his sin of bid'ah, by 'compassionately' blowing him up. ...

Okay, lesson learned, class dismissed. ... Oh, almost forgot. For your homework, be sure to read up the suras and hadiths on beheading and stoning of adulterers... we will have class demonstrations tomorrow... Allah, the all knowledgeable, will need volunteers... Yes, Akhmed? ... No, volunteers are not promised paradise...

Allah is the all wise, all knowing, all merciful, the "one true trickster and mohammad is his messenger". Class dismissed.

Uhh....OOOPS???????

I'm not sure I would want to take an undergrounduate course from this institute.

I definitely would be concerned about homework assignments and I would be even more concerned if my dog ate my homework. That may explain why Muslims don't have dogs.


I also think it would be advisable to call in sick if the class was scheduled to go on a field trip especially if the field trip announcement asked students to bring along a back pack.

I do have to give the prof. credit. He took his suicide bomber teaching position seriously but perhaps too literally.

May his unwavering dedication be an inspiration to all such teachers to follow in his footstep and thereby further the cause (ours).

I may have posted in the wrong window. It's like Deja-Vu.However, since we're in silly-world anyway, I'm waiting for the court case in which, the very existence of kafirs anywhere in the US, will make it impossible for a mooselip to freely exercise it's religion, since the existence of kafirs is an insult to allah. Us living will eventually violate their constitutional rights. Wait and see........

PS
I hope it wasn't one of those 2 credit summer courses.

Hi rb. Somehow it seems to me that these type of courses should be offering discredits instead of credits. When enough discredits are accumulated the undergrounduate is issued a MSc degree (Monster of Science)
