After ISIS Borobudur Threat – Police Now Guarding Bali Temples!
oooooooooooooooo
A week ago, we posted on the threat by ISIS savages to destroy Indonesia’s most magnificent monument, Borobudur Temple in Jogjakarta. Now it seems the menace has spread to Bali, where police fear the evil fanatics may plan attacks on that island’s Hindu cultural heritage.
It is sadly true that some rabid Islamists have no respect for minority creeds here. We posted on the state-sponsored Indonesian Council of so-called ‘Scholars’ disrespect for Hindus a couple of years ago.
If you flick back to that post…
Bali Hindu King – Don’t Kill Our Cows! Muslim ‘Scholars’ – Get Lost!!
…you’ll be as horrified as I was at the sheer bigot intolerance of the MUI and its think-alikes. These ‘clerics’ dismissed the protests of the King of Bali over their intention to slaughter cows for the Idul Adha sacrifices, despite cows being sacred beasts for Hindus, and despite plenty of other animals like goats easily available.
Sheer bloody arrogance!

So if even these ‘establishment’ creeps can belittle Hindu tenets of faith, nobody should be shocked that the ISIS vermin would be planning to launch terror on sacred Hindu sites.
Certainly the cops down there on the Isle of the Gods aren’t taking any chances.

So, good sir, do you refrain from eating beef when in Bali so as to avoid offending Hindu religious sensibilities? Additionally, please note that Balinese Hindus make offerings of meat, including beef. http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/2001/02/15/hare-krishnas-shake-balinese-hindus.html

Not quite sure what you’re on about, Mr. Band.
But certainly as a staunch monarchist, if the King of Bali, clearly speaking for his fellow-Balinese, requested me not to use their sacred animals for sacrificial purposes, I’d heed his request.
Personally, I’m fairly omniverous, though I’d draw the line at the Indonesian dish known as ‘torpedo.’

What a horrible story.
I can not know why these MUI want to kill the Hindu cows when Idul Adha comes again every years and they have hundreds of goats to use for their sacrifice.
Everybody knows Hindus think cows are holy animals to be unharmed, so MUI should also know.
Always there is demanding for respect and how hurt the feeling are, but MUI are easy to hurt the feelings of Hindu Indonesian people like this.
I do not think cows are holy, and I do not think pigs are unholy.
But I do not give Muslims a pig meat sandwich and I do not hurt a cow when I am in Bali with the Hindus.

Dieng? The temples there must also be protected.
Java has many glories in its history and we have many tourists coming to see it.
I hope the police will be guarding in Dieng too.
