| Indonesian judges have rejected a request to let terror suspect Abu Bakar Bashir out of jail to attend the congress of a militant Islamic group which he leads. "You want us to do what? Get out of here!" Chief Judge, Muhammad Saleh says Bashir can only address the congress of the Indonesian Mujahedin Council, which he has headed since 2000, through a written speech read out by someone else. The Judge has also banned Bashir from recording his voice to address the group’s congress in two week’s time in Central Java. "We may be dumb, but we ain’t stupid." |

| #1 Why not? The Germans did something similar with some fool named Hitler after the Beer-Hall Putsch, and he never caused any further problems. |
