Murderous Islam alert: Bali bombing was God's will: Abu Bakar Bashir

TERRORIST leader Abu Bakar Bashir taunted Australia yesterday, saying the Bali bombing victims had to die "because it was God's will".

As John Howard sent a terse letter to Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono over this week's release of the radical cleric, Bashir insisted the terrorists behind the Bali bombings "were not the killers, but only Allah's conduit" for the deaths.

Bashir was released on Wednesday after serving 26 months of a 30-month sentence for condoning the first Bali attack, in October 2002, which killed 202 people, including 88 Australians.

The Prime Minister's four-paragraph letter told Dr Yudhoyono of the "very deep personal concerns and the distress" felt by Australians at the release of Jemaah Islamiah's spiritual leader.

It comes just 10 days before the leaders are to meet on the Indonesian island of Batam, their first meeting since diplomatic tensions emerged over Australia's decision to grant visas to 42 Papuan asylum-seekers.

But Bashir, speaking at an Islamic school in the central Java city of Solo, where at least two of the Bali bombers studied, warned Mr Howard to "stay out of Indonesia's affairs".

"I urge the families of the victims, those who are not Muslims, to immediately convert to Islam so they can be saved and comforted by Allah," he said.

Families of Bali bombing victims last night called on Mr Howard to do more to protest to Indonesia about Bashir's release.

Peter Iliffe, whose 28-year-old son Joshua was killed in the 2002 bombings, said Australia had to stand up for itself.

I just have this to ask of Abu Abu Pigfornicator,which is more likely to have God's will....a suicide bombing,or the tsunami that wiped out about 250,000 muslims?

Any Muzzies ever stop to ask themselves what does God need with pissant bombers? Afterall, there is some tremendous ZOTTING power up there.

Don't forget the earthquake in Paksitan which also had muslim victims (250 000 I think?)

Ya know, if God really wanted it bombed, he'd have done it himself.

Wrong direction for allah, and muuuhhamhed (pigs be inseminating him).

"I urge the families of the victims, those who are not Muslims, to immediately convert to Islam so they can be saved and comforted by Allah," he said.

These Islamists seem to follow the Charlemagne/Coulter method of evangelization: convert or we'll kill you. Of course, a forced conversion is no conversion at all.

His words are plain enough. Why cannot other Western countries connect the dots????

"He attacked American and Australian "infidels" and called on Mr Howard to convert to Islam to save himself from hell."

The crowd cheered when Bashir exhorted them to uphold Islam.

"So I say to infidels that it will be useless to be at war with Islam. You will definitely be destroyed ... No matter what, Islamic law must be imposed. For centuries, Islam reigned the world, the world was safe, prosperity and justice everywhere. After the fall of Islam and the world was reigned by infidels the world is now in full of darkness and full of injustice."
