This still worries me greatly. Islam has not shown it's complete and total disagreement with the terrorist groups who are predominately Islamic. Like our president stated "You are either with us against us". Since the Islamic's don't openly oppose their Islamic brothers, then I say they are against us. This is my opinion and I wish I were wrong.
Unity in Diversity. The Indonesian national motto "Unity in Diversity" points to one of the greatest attractions of your host country, Indonesia. There are some 300 ethnic groups, a result of both the country's unique geography and history. Many Indonesians may see themselves first by their ethnic and cultural group and secondly as Indonesians. The glue that binds the people together is the usage of the Bahasa Indonesia, the national language, and Pancasila, the national philosophy, which stresses the doctrine of unity and universal justice for all Indonesians.
