“A Wise And Noble Step?” Islamic ‘Scholars’ On Terrorist Unleashed In Indonesia!
It’s always a little difficult for us foreigners here in Indonesia to comment critically on the release of terrorists.
That’s because many Western countries have responded to the terrorist threat on their own territory in such an insipid and ineffectual way.
In France ( French terror police says 15,000 Islamic radicals on watch list –Isil priest killer was tagged and on terror watch list ) and Germany (Hinder Dangerous Jihadists? OMG…That’s ”Hardline!” – Ding Dong Merrily – Truck Schwein Shot Dead! –Jihadists Known To Police ‘A Common Element?’ Outrageous! … .
…evil men are free to roam the streets
Most certainly in the UK…

…where the spineless government of Theresa May has chosen to open the door to the return of rats on the run, jihadist scum who went off to join the ISIS rape-gang and now come scuttling ‘home,’ not to face a firing squad, as should be the case, but to batten onto the public purse.
However, the release of a wicked old man, who has never recanted his infamous exhortations to violence and expressions of sectarian hate….

oo
…has shocked many here, not just us foreigners, but many Indonesians too, although some of us were not overwhelmingly astonished.
Less than a year ago we recognised the possibility of such a move, when the brute got remission Terrorist convict Abu Bakar Ba’asyir gets 3-month on the country’s national holiday.

Independence Day Brings Bigot Ba’asyir Nearer Release!
At that time, we reminded readers of his vile ranting incitement against tourists in Bali, that video that exposed his backward bigotry for all the world to see..
…In the video, Bashir urges those in the village to beat up tourists that disrespect Islamic ways, saying, “If there are infidels here, then beat them up. Do not tolerate them.”
Later in the sermon, he likens non-Muslims to crawling “worms, snakes, maggots.” He also says infidels ruin moral values by exposing their skin at the beach.
………..
Worm about to turn?

“Take a look at Bali”, he said.

At the very least, one might have hoped the terror convict would be required to issue a public retraction and apology for his nauseating words.
But evidently not- check out reports over the past three years alone.
————–
Imprisoned terrorist convict Abu Bakar Ba’asyir has officially pledged his allegiance, or bai’at, to join the jihadist movement of a militant group known as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, or ISIS, according to an official…

Nusakambangan
–.
Ba’asyir, the spiritual leader of the Indonesian terror network Jamaah Islamiyah, made his bai’at to ISIS with 23 other prisoners in a praying room of what was supposed to be the highly secured Pasir Putih penitentiary on Nusakambangan Island off Cilacap, Central Java.
Jailed Terrorist Convict Ba’asyir Pledges Oath With ISIS
Okay, that’s only one report, but it is hardly the only one!
Terrorist convict Abu Bakar Ba’asyir is set to lose his long-held position as the region’s spiritual leader of a terrorist network after expelling his sons and top aides from his organization, Jamaah Ansharut Tauhid (JAT), following their refusal to support the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), also known as ISIS.
And check out another post on our blog…
So Will Bigot Ba’asyir Be Unleashed, Since God’s On His Side?
…which touches on the mind-set of the Islamic ‘scholars’ who are rejoicing at the beast’s release.
MUI – Indonesian Scholars Council
==================================
President Jojowi’s decision to uncage Ba’asyir is, we are told, based on ‘compassion’ – a virtue never part of Ba’asyir’s character – but needless to say, questions have been asked about the timing, just a month or three before the election in which Jokowi faces his old foe Prabowo.
BUT…we have been warned not to ask too many questions!

MUI’s Saadi – ” “MUI thanks God for the decision…”
=
MUI Vice Chairman Zainut Tauhid Saadi urged the public to not harbor any assumption or make any allegation related to the release of Ba`asyir, as it could erase the legal essence.
Not exactly sure what that means, but Saadi’s other words are clear enough. The ‘scholars’ of the MUI have welcomed the uncaging of the terror convict as ‘a wise and noble legal step…’
And Saadi reminds us that MUI Chairman Ma`ruf Amin had once proposed the release of Ba`asyir early last year on health and humanitarian grounds.

Almost exactly the words now used by President Jokowi this month.
And President Jokowi, please note, has chosen MUI’s Ma’aruf Amin as his Vice-Presidential running-mate in that April election.

Time to get going, if you haven’t gone yet.
At least SBY had three terrorists executed.

I get home late on Mondays so only now have read this and I so much agree.
We are all shocked by what has happened and worry also that if the government can let one devil be loosed, what next?
There are many more terrorist prisoners who want to get free and kill more innocent people.

Wise and noble?
Since when it was wise to let so very bad a man out of prison when he is not finished his sentence and will not regret his crime. Since when it was noble to let out an Indonesian who does not respect Indonesia but instead respects ISIS.
