Southeast Asia
Detained Sulawesi holy man linked to Top
2006-02-13
Indonesian police have detained a Muslim preacher in the restive eastern town of Poso as part of a nationwide hunt for one of Southeast Asia's most wanted Islamic militants, police said on Monday.

Police in the province of Central Sulawesi said authorities detained the preacher because of his suspected links to Malaysian Noordin M.Top, who is accused of playing a key role in a spate of bombings in Indonesia.

"A Muslim religious teacher was detained in Poso last Thursday," Central Sulawesi police spokesman Rais Adam said, without giving details on the preacher's suspected links to Top.

A police official in Jakarta said the man had been detained under the country's anti-terrorism laws.

Top is blamed for helping mastermind a series of bombings in Indonesia, including suicide attacks on three restaurants on the resort island of Bali last October that killed 20 people and attacks in Bali three years earlier that left 202 people dead.

Police said last month that Top, already identified as a senior player in Southeast Asian militant network Jemaah Islamiah, had proclaimed himself leader of a group called Tanzim Qaedat al-Jihad, or Organisation for the Basis of Jihad.

Jemaah Islamiah is considered a regional arm of al Qaeda, and police said the new group might also have an al Qaeda link.

On ring to rule them all, one ring to find them, one ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them (IIRC)...

#8  Translation of RC's post:

This is the one true ring.
It cannot be broken or unmade.
If found return to Sauron.

#7  RC, that sounds like Middle Urdth-ish.
Is "nazg" a "ring"?

Tere DIL mein rahenge SMS bankar,Dhadkano mein bajenge RINGTONE bankar,Kabhi apne DIL se juda mut Samajana,Hum tere saath chalenge NETWORK bankar!
..............................................................................
Hum dua karte hain Khuda se, ki wo aap jaisa dost aur na banaye, Ek Cartoon jaisi cheez hai humare paas, kahin wo bhi common na ho jaye
...........................................................
Zindagi behaal hai, Sur hai na taal hai, Msg box bhi kangal hai, kya aapki sms factory me hartal hai, Yaar kuch to bhejo ye meri mobile ki zindagi ka sawaal hai.
...................................................................
o hamne aurtUnka ashiyana dil mein basa rakha hai, Unki yadon ko seene se laga rakha hai, Pata nahi yaad aate hain wohi kyun, Vaise dost on ko bhi bana rakha hai.

Dil mein umeedo ki shamma jala rakhi hai, Humne apni alag duniya basa rakhi hai, Is umeed ke saath ki ayega SMS aapka,
Humne mobile par nazrein jama rakhi hein.

Zindagi Hey to Khwab Hain, Khwab hain tu Manzilen Hain,Manzilen Hain to Rastay Hain Rastay Hain TU Mushkilen Hain our Mushkilen Hain Tu "Main Hoon Na"
...............................................................
Ae dil kissi ki yaad mein rona fajool hai .. ye aansoo bade anmol hain inhe khona fajool hai .. royo to unke liye jo tum par nisaar hain .. unke liye kya rona jinke aashiq hazaar hain
.............................................................
Phoolon se khoobsurat koi nahi. .. Sagar se gahra koi nahi. .. Ab aapki kya tarif karu...Dosto me aap jaisa...Nalayak koi nahi!
...........................................................
Zindagi jaise ek saza si ho gayi hai, gham ke saagar me is kadar kho gayi hai, tum kar do ek SMS yeh guzarish hai meri,tumari SMS ki adat si ho gayi hai.
