Bang!!!!

Another bomb in Jakarta, its the one at oz embassy.
Terrorism in Indonesia is quite different from the rest of the world, in here they reluctant to announce who does the bombing and why. Is it the Asia way? They never spoke what they mean. While other terrorist groups proudly announce their action and why they did it. Are these Indonesian terrorist shy? They willing to kill people and they are shy?. Of course its redundant to try to understand it.

The world seems agree that Indonesia is the nest for terrorists, is this true? I don't know but from what I heard that most of Indonesian terrorist got their training abroad, places like Malaysia, Afghanistan, Philippine, and so on. Even our most wanted terrorist Dr azahari (I don't know the spelling) is from Malaysia. Abu bakar baasyir a jailed scholar with alleged link to Jamaah Islamiyah got his education in Malaysia and spent most of his life there.

Fanatics, Repressed, are these the root of terrorism? Or its like David and Goliath?
I believe most of Indonesian Muslims are moderate, of course as in any religion there will always be fanatics.
I am a Muslim but some of my family members have different religion, and I think this is a blessing because I've seen many Muslims grow up in totally Islamic environment thinks that non Muslim is their enemy, but I've seen the same with other religion, Christians grow up in totally Christian environment sees us Muslim as their enemy.

For me, religion is between myself and my God.
I see everyone as a person regardless they are Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Hindu or Atheist.
I Don't Care. You have your believes, I have mine.
So just join hands to face these terrorism.
