| Amrozi smiles at death: I will be a martyr By Darren Goodsir, in Denpasar, Bali, August 1 2003 Accused Bali bomber Amrozi said yesterday he was not afraid of dying and was looking forward to becoming a martyr. Death is not a deterrent against people who think it is the entry ticket to an eternal party. Two things would work: lifelong imprisonment/humiliation (ie: lock in a cage and test cosmetics/bioweapons/medical research on them) or collective responsibility (punish their family and associates). The second is grossly unfair and violates several central tenets of western morality. We would find it impossible to stomach - but it would be the most effective method of ensuring these twerps didn’t continue to surface. Despite almost certainly facing a death sentence next week for his part in the Kuta nightclub attacks, he joked, laughed and sang songs about future terrorist acts. I really hate this guy. As an aside, SBS reported (i think i only caught it in passing) that someone with a name resembling Sheikh Yassin is supposed to be visiting Australia next month. I don’t know if it is THE Sheikh Yassin: i googled and found no info. Apparently "Muslim Productions" is bringing him out. I googled them: no info. Keysar Trad and the Mufti of Australia want to keep this person and other Islamofascists out (to their credit). SBS of course tried to spin it as though the Islamofascists were no threat and Keysar Trad and the Mufti don’t speak for all muslims. "Even though I will soon be dead, our mission will be continued by our children and grandchildren," he told Australian journalists from his cell, waving his arms around in apparent delight at the attention. collective responsibility is the antidote to this "It will never stop. There will be a million more like me who will follow . . . Their name will not be the same as mine, but they will behave the same as me. And the smile, that too will probably be different from mine." he just loves what he’s done. collective responsibility and the cage Not once did he show remorse, laughing aloud when asked if he wanted to pass on a message to the families of victims killed in the October 12 attacks. Sporting a new green and white Muslim hat, knitted by his wife for judgement day, he strolled barefooted into the prison yard on the outskirts of Denpasar, his arms gripped tightly by police guards. Handcuffed, wearing shorts and a garish T-shirt, Amrozi, 40, the most famous of the bombing suspects, said he had dreamed since childhood of dying as a martyr for Allah. hence it’s no punishment just to kill him. The CAGE the CAGE Asked if he had anything to say to Australian victims, he replied: "They are already dead . . . so how can I possibly say anything to them?" smartarse When asked if he had a message for your his wife, he replied: "Just to be patient. And ask her to pray or me so that I can get a martyr’s death. I still want a martyr’s death. i humbly pray that my husband can go and fuck 72 virgins in heaven. Amen, Allah is great. "Even though I didn’t get a martyr’s death in the Bali bombing, if I am released from jail, I will do jihad again." THE CAGE TEST CHEMICALS ON HIM. TEST NEUROSURGERY ON HIM And how about your children who will have no father, he was asked. "Their future will be determined by Allah," he said, "not humans." collective responsibility Halfway through the surreal banter, Amrozi burst into song, one of a number of tunes he has penned since being arrested last November. It called for ongoing terrorist acts and vengeance for the oppression of Muslims all over the world. "This is us, the warriors of Allah," he sang. "We are not shaken by the death penalty; Always continuing jihad, whatever happens." It ended: "Get rid of cruel Zionists; Get rid of the Christian filth; Yell to Allah, Alluah Akbar; This is my song." It’s got a catchy beat. Might be able to dance to it: I’d like to do the ball-grip dance followed by the twist-and-yank followed by the cage and testing-neurosurgery shuffle. However, he had only harsh words for his youngest brother, Ali Imron. Imron has given detailed confessions to police and willingly testified against Amrozi, and the eldest of the three brothers, Mukhlas, the operations boss of Jemaah Islamiah, the terrorist gang behind the blasts, which killed 202 people, including 88 Australians. thank goodness the brother sqwarked "Of course, we are different. I cannot recognise him. He dresses more and more like a lawyer. The eggs that we came from are different, aren’t they?" i dunno. Three bad eggs in a row. Still, you can’t make an omelette without breaking some more eggs. - How do you feel about receiving the death penalty? "Yes, good. It will be a martyr’s death and that is what I am looking for. When you die as a martyr, you feel nothing . . . "It is much different to other ways of dying, which can be very painful." - Are you scared of dying? "I’m not scared at all." - Are you still happy? "I never feel unhappy." THE CAGE THE CAGE GIVE HIM THE CHIMPS CAGE AND THE TESTING The five-man panel of judges, who have listened to more than 40 witnesses since the hearing started on May 12, will deliver their verdict on Thursday. The prosecution has argued for a death penalty, with more than 10 of the 50 suspects captured since the blasts also facing a similar sentence. |

| #2 Amrozi needs a life-long 3-hots, well, not so hot and a cot in very stark, but humane confinement; no stimulation, and no comm with the outside. It is as humane as we can be and not become our own enemy, and let his twisted mind turn inward as the years drag on. Take him out of circulation forever. |

| #1 "Collective responsibility" would only make us terrorists ourselves. If western civilisation followed such measures, it would really not matter one iota whether the Islamists or us were victorious in the end. |
