Perhaps bored with intimidatiing defenceless people themselves…
…they instead decided to try to get the cops to do their dirty work for them.
“We were asked not to go ahead with this seminar because the FPI asked the police to prohibit the activity,” said Ready Chairman Aip Syarif Hidayat
Several Ready representatives were summoned to police headquarters to explain the seminar ..they were questioned about what was to be discussed
Api says he told Police Chief Susnadi that the seminar would only be talking about “themes of nationality….. strengthening the four pillars of nationhood as in Pancasila, the 1945 Constitution, the Republic of Indonesia, and national unity,”
Alas, the top cop, having received complaints from the FPI that Islamonazis found fault with Ready’s outreach to peaceful religious minorities, was unhappy.
“We do embrace all groups,” said Aip, referring to Ahmadiyya and Shia, two creeds hated by the white-shirt hoodlum. As a result of this police ban, Aip was forced to postpone the implementation of the seminar. “We postpone to respect the police,” he said.

The Police are now denying they banned the seminar.
Their observations are mind-boggling.
West Java Police chief spokesman Sr. Sulistyo Pudjo Hartono said Tasikmalaya Police only warned that if the seminar were held on schedule it would invite insecurity.

“I likened it to being on a plane and there’s a cumulonimbus cloud. Then the tower officer asks that the plane not recklessly pierce the clouds, find another way. Likewise Tasikmalaya Police duties in matters of the seminar,” said Pudjo
A better analogy would be if a plane’s following its legitimate flight-path and a bunch of deranged louts threaten to start firing at it. Yes, the plane could divert, but might it not be smarter for law enforcement to swoop on the demented brutes, using all necessary force, including authorised fire-arms, then lock them up.
Not in West Java.
Pudjo rambled on.
“So it was the committee itself that ultimately postponed the seminar activity because we’d told them of their vulnerability. And they understood,” he said.
On the part played by the IslamoNazi FPI, Pudjo not argue. According to him, the issue of belief in Tasikmalaya is still a high potential threat of religious harmony.
Reducing that potential, by cracking down on jihadist gangsters, might not be a bad idea, right? Do cops not have a duty to protect citizens’ civil liberties? Like freedom of speech and peaceful assembly?
Wrong!.”
“They (the organizers) see the social pressures from those who hold different beliefs.”
Mind you,West Java’s record is so bad we shouldn’t be too surprised…

We should be prepared to take her in if she wants to come here.
As you annd others have said more than once, people like her can be a real benefit to countries they are given shelter in, because they can spread the word, from first-hand experience, of how sharia is a threat to every freedom we used to take for granted.
Freedom of speech, freedom of religion, women’s rights to be treated as equal to men in the eyes of the law, the ideology the sharia gang carries with it wherever it goes is deadly ro Western civilization.

I have heard you say that Western countries should accept the Ahmadis if they ask for asylum.
I go along with that same as I go along with this.
Indonesia is nowhere nearly as bad as Bangladesh but how long is that going to last?
With the election next year, the vice-president candidates on both sides worry me a lot but I intend to hang in here.
My Indonesian colleagues say they wish you would write more about Indonesia.
I hear you are still here but most of the people I knew in my first ten years are gone now and most of the others are talking about going.
Its a damn shame.
