Indonesian security forces on Monday warned of further militant attacks, as they hunted for the remnants of a pro-Islamic State (Isis) group that killed four Christians in Central Sulawesi over the weekend, including one victim who was beheaded in an effort by the group to “sow terror” in society.
The grisly deaths of the Salvation Army members in the western Sigi regency was carried out on Saturday by the East Indonesia Mujahideen (MIT), a terrorist group based in the mountains of the neighbouring Poso regency.
MIT leader Ali Kalora decapitated one of the victims as an act of vengeance against the recent slaying of two of their militants, said Brigadier-General Farid Makhruf, commander of a military force that covered Central Sulawesi.
“The victim, Yasa, was beheaded in a killing that was witnessed by his wife who managed to escape,” said Farid, adding that the man’s head was found 10 metres (32 feet) from his body.
The MIT was known to carry out attacks at the end of the year, Farid said. “If we don’t hunt them down and stop them, this is going to cause fear among people.”

Ping my FRiend!
Am I wrong or did Islamic terror start up a day after the election?
How is this not translated into a wanted dead or alive alert on all members of the group?
I like the idea of not just killing Muslim insurgents but wrapping them in hog hide and stuffing their mouths with pig fat too before burial.
It started 14 centuries ago.
The Religion of Mostly Peaceful
If only there was some common link to these attacks
Lol- if it wasn’t deadly...
Covid death.
Saya sedih sekali.
I am very sad. This will indeed sow terror and it will reap anger. We must pray.
More I cannot say.
I’ll have to post my Columbo pic later when I get home
Well, the world better get used to this New Normal. Biden will not do anything. He cannot take a pee without a pampers. Harris absolutely WANTS it to happen. Buckle up, world - you’re going to get what you wanted....
And it WILL happen more and more in America. Right now, the media acts upset...only if they can blame white folks. The islamics use guns in this country more than any other tool.
I think the average American is going to purchase a hell of a lot more guns and ammo.
They went into hiding under Trump. Now that Hidey/Ho look to be in, Islamic beheadings will increase exponentially like they did under Obozo.
