Hundreds of police reinforcements flew into Indonesia’s Sulawesi island today, after gunmen opened fire on an Easter church service, wounding seven people.

Saturday’s attack sparked fears of a return to open fighting between Muslims and Christians that erupted in 1999, killing about 1,000 people.

More than 300 members of the Mobile Brigade paramilitary police unit are arriving in the region.

No-one has been arrested over the shooting in the town of Poso in central Sulawesi 1,000 miles north east of Jakarta.

Two of the injured remain in hospital, although their injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.

Police have declined to speculate on the identity of the attackers, who wore black uniforms and were armed with automatic weapons.

Attacks last year against Christian villages were blamed by intelligence officials on Jemaah Islamiyah, the al Qaida-linked regional terror group accused of the 2002 terror attacks on Bali island.

Muhammad-inspired persecution of Christians, Jews and all non-Muslims continues...

Mohammed, The Mad Poet Quoted....

There would be so many alerts... you would wish they would stop

"No-one has been arrested over the shooting in the town of Poso in central Sulawesi 1,000 miles north east of Jakarta."

Hardly surprising since the perpetrators were of the "Religion of Peace" and the "Religion of Peace" is the dominant belief system in Indonesia.
