| 2019-12-19 |
| [Jpost] Indonesian anti-terrorism officers are interrogating eight suspected Islamic forces of Evil arrested in the province of Papua on suspicion that they were planning an attack, a police front man said on Wednesday. The arrest was a "pre-emptive strike" by the anti-terrorism squad earlier this month in several locations in Papua, National Police front man Asep Adi Saputra said in Jakarta. The suspects have been transferred to Jakarta for questioning, he said. They were suspected of having links to the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... -inspired Jamaah Ansharut Daulah (JAD), which has carried out a series of attacks in Indonesia. Police said the arrests were made after officers had conduced surveillance of meetings between the suspects, as well as training and preparation for suspected attacks. "Their target and their plan is currently being investigated," Saputra said.Related:Jamaah Ansharut Daulah: 2019-11-19 Indonesia police link suicide kaboom to Islamic State-inspired group Jamaah Ansharut Daulah: 2019-11-13 Suspected suicide kaboom at police headquarters in Indonesia's Medan Jamaah Ansharut Daulah: 2018-06-23 Indonesian holy man sentenced to death over 2016 ISIS/JAD terror attack |

| #5 Does the questioning include wet face towels, pliers and blowtorches? I sure hope so. |

| #4 I best like the Fredisms 'illusory sovereignty' and 'Sherlocks' to name two. His inlines are the best dark humor ever. |

| #3 Fred's site uses a cute system to substitute words, like "Front man" for "spokesman" This issue has come up before in different contexts, like "maimed" for "wounded". I believe the text substitution got started back when copyright trolls were trying to extort websites. Righthaven was one of them that Rantburg has particular problems with, if memory serves. |

| #2 Fred's site uses a cute system to substitute words, like "Front man" for "spokesman". I could also substitute "you" with" wadded-panty lib apologist for muzzies". See? It works fine |

| #1 "a police front man said on Wednesday." Why the use of the term Front Man? It appears to me the Indonesian Police, are doing A Good Thing By your use of that phrase (which has a negative connotation)you imply they are Not doing the best they can. Could the reason be Conservative PC, where we are not supposed to say anything positive about Muslims/Islam? |
