#1 The Islamic Defenders Front. Right. Perhaps they'll do in Aceh what the Eastern Province Governor did in Saudi when Gulf Shield began, pack up the mutawas (religious police) and the other idiots likely to cause trouble and ship 'em out to some other area - and keep them there muzzled - while the real work is done.

Personally, I would enjoy seeing Almascaty and friends when they get a glimpse of the wymyns in the US Armed Forces... prolly scare the shit out of 'em. Cheesedicks.

#2  "Praise God, they are coming to help us," said Munajar, a Banda Aceh clerk who like many Indonesians uses only one name. "We have been waiting for the international community to assist us and now they have come."

How come people in Florida never day things like this after 4 serial hurricanes? The educational system in Indonesia must be very impressive for people to be able to remain so articulate and retain their composure.

#3 So let the wealthy arab nations provide them with the help they need. Uh, guys? Anybody? Where's that outpouring of milk of human kindness for suffering fellow Muslims? I thought so.

#4 "The presence of foreign troops on Indonesian soil is a sensitive issue. The nation with the largest Muslim population on earth... ...public criticism of both the new government and the US has grown."
I dare say it's not an issue to the afflicted right now. The rest be damned.

#5 This is naturally our first move in asserting a military hegemony over the Islamic peoples in the Far East. Soon we'll have complete control over their economies, and an endless supply of cheap consumer goods for the American markets, like, um, coconuts.

What a bunch of maroons.
