THREE Christian high school girls were beheaded as a Ramadan "trophy" by Indonesian militants who conceived the idea after a visit to Philippines jihadists, a court heard yesterday.
The girls' severed heads were dumped in plastic bags in their village in Indonesia's strife-torn Central Sulawesi province, along with a handwritten note threatening more such attacks. The note read: "Wanted: 100 more Christian heads, teenaged or adult, male or female; blood shall be answered with blood, soul with soul, head with head."
Javanese trader Hasanuddin appeared in Jakarta Central Court yesterday charged with planning and directing the murders in October last year. He faces a death sentence if found guilty under anti-terrorism legislation. Hasanuddin allegedly returned from a visit to members of Philippines Islamist group the Moro Islamic Liberation Front with tales of how that organisation regularly staged bombings to coincide with Lebaran, the festival that ends the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. He later spoke with a preacher in Poso, Central Sulawesi, about whether such a plan could work in Indonesia, but expressed doubt about whether it was appropriate. However, after further discussion with friends, he decided that beheading Christians could qualify as an act of Muslim charity.
Conscripting several accomplices at a local pesantren, or Islamic school, he directed one of them, Lilik Purnomo, to seek out "the head of a Christian", prosecutors alleged. "It would be a great Lebaran trophy if we got a Christian. Go search for the best place for us to find one," Hasanuddin allegedly ordered his companion. Lilik returned to say he had found an "excellent" target - a group of schoolgirls who travelled to and from class by foot in the Central Sulawesi village of Gebong Rejo.

I've been thinking the same thing for a long time.
The dream of an Islam free world, it seems will now remain just that, a dream.
Excuse me? A majority the victims of terrorist attacks in Iraq have been Muslims. Women, children, unarmed noncombatants; people used as human shields, people shopping in the market. You're saying you're OK with that, as long as they were MUslims? The people of Iraqi Kurdistan, who have been strong supporters of the U.S. military, and who surged into the streets dancing with joy when Saddam got his death sentence: you'd be OK with killing them, because they're Muslim?
My son's former soccer coach, Mahmoud Sabri, a patriotic American citizen, schoolteacher, and btw an excellent coach, you'd kill him because he's Muslim? And his babies too?
Would you please think before you post such garbage?
"most muslims do not share these murderers opinion of Christians"
Ya know, I just don't buy that any more.
Soon coming to a country near you, if the western world continues to wallow in moral insecurity and hesitate in confronting it.
"after further discussion with friends, he decided that beheading Christians could qualify as an act of Muslim charity. "
How could anyone defend a religion that has preachers with beliefs like this?!?! This is not a unique ideology within Islam. Muslims are animals! They treat their women like dirt, they kill their children, they randomly murder innocent people just because they do not share the same religious "values" as them. It is time the west woke up and rid our lands of these cretins so that we can protect our future, our values... our children!
Been searching on the internet for repudiation of the 'acts of Muslim Charity', ain't found it yet. The long history of Muslim atrocities and apologists is evident.
We must face the fact that we are in a religious war (the 25th year) and go at it with hell hung on em. The 'moderates' (if there is such a thing) will be saved when they stand up. If it sends the others over the to the 'dark' side of terrorism, so be it. They should be forced to take a stand. No more, Inshallah of Mashallah bullshit. I'm tired of pussyfooting around with the shadowy fringes in this cult.
The more Christians are persecuted and killed, the stronger and more numerous they (we) get.
It has always been thus - to give our life to our King, the creator of the universe, who gave His first for us.
It matters not how numerous or strong they become as long as they refuse to defend themselves. Just more trophy heads for these muslims. And besides, I have not heard any stories of resurections lately. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm wonder why?
