The original group not in Obama's home state of Illinois but in the place where he spent his childhood. The largest Muslim population in the world:Hundreds of Indonesian Islamists rallied in central Jakarta on Sunday to protest against this week’s visit by US President Barack Obama.
More than 1,000 protesters from the radical group Hizbut Tahrir shouted “Obama Comes, We Crush” and “Reject Obama” outside the state palace and the US embassy. They brandished posters bearing his picture and banners with slogans such as “Do not add to Indonesia’s grief”.
Where's the love? Where's the moderation? Meanwhile Sufi shrines are being attacked by Taliban in Pakistan and our home-grown terrorist export to Yemen, Anwar al-Awlaki, is exhorting more murder of Americans:
In his 23-minute message delivered in Arabic, al-Awlaki said because all Americans are the enemy, clerics don't need to issue any special fatwas or religious rulings allowing them to be killed. He was dressed in a traditional Yemeni garb — a white robe, turban and a sheathed dagger tucked into his waistband — and wore round spectacles while sitting behind a desk.
"Don't consult with anybody in killing the Americans," he said. "Fighting the devil doesn't require consultation or prayers seeking divine guidance. They are the party of the devils," he added. It is "either us or them."
Well, who needs you then, hmm.
