Parents mortgaged home for Indonesian injustice

It was reported that more than $100,000 was paid out of at least $600,000 used to free Michelle Leslie.

Her Sydney Lawyer Ross Hill confirmed $275,000 was contributed by Leslie's parents after they mortgaged their home.

The $130,000 sent to Jakarta and several other payments were contributed by Leslie's boyfriend, Scott Sutton, and his family, which has a $220 million Sydney car dealership.

Mr Hill said it was possible that bribes were paid to secure Leslie's release but he had not witnessed any.

More than $130,000 sent by wealthy friends to figures in Jakarta to help free Michelle Leslie had disappeared and was rumoured to have been used for bribes, her Sydney lawyer, Ross Hill, has conceded.

He said he had sacked two men from Jakarta, and several associated lawyers, after he took control of the case about three weeks after Leslie was arrested with two ecstasy tablets in Bali.

After that, Mr Hill said, he was not personally aware of any bribes paid to secure her release.

Two Jakarta men were hired by a manager from Neil Sutton's car dealership after they guaranteed they could get Leslie freed immediately. One man is believed have been a bodyguard of the former president Soeharto.

When they flew to Bali, threats were made to force Leslie's local lawyers to resign. The men were given $US100,000 ($135,730) by the Suttons, Mr Hill said.

It was unclear what had happened to the money and it might have been pocketed, he said. "I can't say what they did with it; all I know is that amount of money was taken by them."

Mr Hill said he had heard rumours of a senior Indonesian policeman who requested $US400,000 to reduce the charges Leslie was facing. Her initial drug possession charge carried a potential 15-year sentence but was later dropped to one with only a three-month term, enabling her release eight days ago.

Leslie's spokesman, Sean Mulcahy, said she would not be revealing her story, at least for some time.

Asked about allegations that bribes were paid to reduce her sentence, he said yesterday: "They are issues that go to the heart of this problem and we are not prepared to talk about them at this point. It's something for Michelle to talk about when she is ready."

Bambang Sugiarto, the head of Bali's drug squad at the time of Leslie's arrest, said Leslie might have paid "other institutions".

"Maybe she gave the money to other party, I mean, other institutions."

Bali trio scapegoats for state terror

Scapegoat [File photo] (Rooters)

THREE more men will be used as scapegoats for Indonesian State sanctioned terrorism and charged with involvement in last month's Bali suicide bombings that killed four Australians, Indonesian police said last night.

But you can't always believe what police say especially in Indonesia where state sanctioned terror is rampant.

False reporting


Bali bomber? Azahari dead?

Allegedly the government responsible and or complicit in the Bali bombings and an attack on the Australian embassy in Jakarta cannot now be blamed because the Indonesian authorities claim to have blown up a man they blamed it on.

Azahari bin Husin, the man they claim was responsible but now cannot give any evidence contrary to what has been claimed by the authorities because they alleged to have witnessed that he was blown up.

Quite strange was the fact that the Un-Australian headlined it this morning before any alleged DNA result confirmed the death of the alleged person Azahari bin Husin. Did he even exist? Will you be satisfied with the alleged DNA testing by the Indonesian authorities? Was he the Bali bomber? Did he execute both explosions in the first Bali bombing?

Has he been dead for some time and his DNA stored?

Sorry to tell everyone out there in TV land but there is more to this than meets the air waves and because it is claimed Husin was cornered by police in East Java means you have to trust the Indonesian police?

That article was written as the initial report was broadcast based on the Un-Australian's Newspaper story that morning (with a twist) of course because of the inaccurate reporting by the pro-government media source which couldn't be relied upon, even to wipe your arse!

Just like this story is based on a report from the Daily Terror this morning but unfortunately it is amongst some of the worst of the worst reporting - so it has to be re-rooted to give the reader an honest report.

Anyway, the very next day after the Un-Australian's news break it was then reported that Azahari bin Husin did not now blow himself up and that he was shot by the police instead?

This is a sure sign of a true propaganda experience my friends, let me tell you. These reports had come from numerous sources including reporters on the ground in Indonesia and police themselves?

Now these other men have been chosen as scapegoats for the State sanctioned terror and will be prosecuted under an anti-terror law that carries the death penalty for allegedly assisting the perpetrators of a bombing.

Similarly, we have a ready source of homegrown scapegoats here in Australia too, for the war on terror, home grown. The john HoWARd variety rounded up because police said that they lied during an interview with ASIO?

Scapegoat to stand trial because police said: he lied?

A Sydney man has been committed to stand trial on charges of lying to ASIO.

It wouldn't matter what it was about would it? Okay I'll tell you then!

Because police said Abdul Rakid Hasan lied to them 'twice' and now he has to prove that he didn't lie to them 'twice' by facing two charges one for each alleged lie?

The man was one of eight arrested in last week's counter-terrorism raids.

Abdul Rakid Hasan is charged with two offences of giving false or misleading information, while being interviewed by ASIO, about his association with 'alleged security risk' Willie Brigitte.

True scapegoats Guantanamo Bay style

Officers were questioning the three suspects [scapegoats and patsies] on Bali after bringing them to the resort island from neighbouring Java with their feet and hands chained and heads covered by a sheet.

Police Propaganda

Bali police spokesman Lieutenant Colonel Antonius Reniban said police had seized notebooks indicating the men had been planning more attacks. [?]

He said the men were arrested in the city of Semarang last week. He declined to give details of their alleged roles in the October 1 triple suicide attacks at crowded restaurants that killed 20 people and the three bombers.

Last weeks story that was suddenly changed

Last week, police shot and killed a Malaysian militant, Azahari Husin, alleged to have helped plan the blasts. [?]

He is believed to have been a leader of the al-Qaeda-linked Jemaah Islamiyah terror group and was tracked down after police identified two of the bombers. [?]

The anti-terror law was rushed through Indonesia's Parliament after [false flag call to arms] bombings in Bali in 2002 which killed 202 people, including 88 Australians.

Ed: All we need now is another report from john hoWARd the coward, alexanda drowner, mick guilty, CIA spy sidney jones or any other alleged terrorism expert that the pro-government media choose to rely upon to validate their claims. And that will ensure us scapegoats buy it and the other three scapegoats get the bullet to take the blame for Indonesian/USA/Australian - State Sanctioned Terror.

Oh! I forgot to mention the farewell video made prior the set-up.

Yeah, the story line here is that, on one tape, the three bombers explained to their families why they were about to blow themselves up in three cafes.

Therefore the authorities don't need any proof to convict them. And I didn't mention them possible being 'tortured' to own up to it 'orally' in any court but you can get the idea from the pic! And some pictures tell the real story.

Stay tuned for my next article called:

How to avoid becoming a scapegoat for state sanctioned terror.

Keep it locked!

Evidence that Howard was complicit in CIA, false flag, call to arms, Bali bombings War criminal John Howard was complicit in the call to arms - false flag operation - Bali bombings - instigated by the CIA - and the Coalition of the Killing - to bolster support - and quell dissent for their illegal and degrading resource wars in the Middle East.

Did the CIA blow up Bali?
In a nation where conspiracy theories and rice are two of life's staples, Indonesians appear to be changing their habits. You can still get rice with your Kentucky Fried, but conspiracy theories easy to find, at least as far as the Bali bombings are concerned.

Australia's Terrorism Wake Up Call [164] The horrific bombings of the Sari Club and Paddy's Bar in Bali, on October 12, 2002, considerably strengthened the hand of the CoW in pursuing the War on Terror. Here was an opportunity to harden the hearts of the Australian and US public against Islamic fundamentalists. It was also a chance for the Indonesian government to justify harsh measures in the war against terrorists and secessionists, such at those in the province of Aceh.

2nd Renaissance -10 The War on Witches [150]
In 1484, Pope Innocent VIII issued a Papal Bull that became the rationale for establishing the Inquisition in Germany. The following excerpt from the Bull sets out the official view of the danger of witches to the community. The Bull and this this passage provided the sole excuse for the torture and cruel executions that were, ultimately, to be the fate of up to fifty percent of the population of some villages.

The plot, uncovered by Singaporean authorities last December before it was fully planned, originally was intended for missions in Manila, not Singapore. The revelations, obtained by GKCNN through key summaries of the US interrogation of Mohammed Mansour Jabarah, demonstrate the new depth of GI members' commitment to the sugar cause.

Alarm over terror in 'Australia'?
ISLAMIC extremists linked to GI cordial fired weapons and conducted close-quarter combat training in remote forests all over Australia. Paint Bombs were the weapon of choice.

A spokesperson for Justice Action Mr.Sooth Sayer said " the arrest is most likely connected to the invasion of the mans privacy by the new powers of ASIO. These are extraordinary laws that were invented, using people as pawns to get unprecedented powers to use to lever John Howard's propaganda machine."

Say no to Indonesia as a tourist destination

No holiday and not cheap!

Random drug tests for Aussie tourists in Bali? Then why would you go?

Australian tourists visiting Bali's nightspots will face random urine tests under an escalating anti-drugs crackdown on the Indonesian holiday island.

But this is just nonsense and could only bee seen as propaganda by the Australian and Indonesian Authorities. In short by the powers that be dictating to all Australians!

The hype!

Bali police drug squad chief Bambang Sugiarto told said he would adopt the hardline tactic, controversially trialled in recent raids on Jakarta clubs, to stamp out the drug trade.

"We tried to use educative and preventive efforts," he said. "So, after doing that, and the people still use drugs, since we have laws to uphold then we have to take action like launching raids, arrests."

His men would now force clubbers to undergo urine tests, Colonel Sugiarto said. "We cannot go to every party but we go in at random and based on priorities."

Previously, only patrons apprehended carrying drugs were forced to provide urine samples.

But perhaps people want to take drugs when they go out and just because it is not a 'legal drug' doesn't mean it's not useful or even more useful. So I guess now the Australian authorities will insist that this is what can happen in Australia somewhere down the track and more likely to be being promoted for that very reason by propagandists here?

Sydney model Michelle Leslie, 24, faces up to 15 years in jail after being caught with two ecstasy tablets in her bag as she entered a party at Kuta's GWK Park last weekend.

After visiting her in prison yesterday, her new lawyer, Basuki Prawirodipuro, was confident but had not studied the case in detail.

He is one of a team of five Indonesian lawyers who specialise in drug cases. He was hired by Leslie's family following Friday's sacking or resignation of her former lawyer, Muhammad Rifan.

At the Denpasar police cells, where Leslie is still being questioned, a friend yesterday said she was in good spirits.

Leslie would be fully prosecuted, Colonel Sugiarto said. "It is again a lesson for our tourists .... she regrets it, but it is too late, it happened already."

Australia's ambassador to Indonesia, David Ritchie refused to comment on the urine test plans, but emphasised that no Australian should take drugs in Indonesia.

Although Australians were not being specifically targeted, they risked being arrested and could face the death penalty for the possession of small amounts of recreational drugs, he said.

Great holiday destination?

Oh, we certainly know that by now and I doubt whether Australian's will be planing to go partying or for that matter anything else in Indonesia unless they just want the death penalty or to get locked up for 15 years?

Turn your back on Indonesia as a tourist destination that will teach them a lesson! Or else give them a mechanism to criminalise anyone they want and that's certainly no holiday!

Bin Laden my target, then where has he bin?

Robbing Australian banks? No!

A 'prisoner' has allegedly told Indonesian police that OSAMA bin Laden, sent a bundle of 'Australian dollars' to fund last year's bombing of the Australian embassy in Jakarta, but OSAMA gets blamed for everything!

And would you really believe the source? Well over at the Un-Australian they would, they'd even make it front page news. Really?

A prisoner convicted of masterminding a bombing who's most likely going to get something very special for being a good stool pigeon, either that or they're twisting his arm.

Just one example of bin Laden propaganda, when it suits the machine an no doubt they'll be jumping on the bandwagon this afternoon to get all the housewives frightened at home at 5.pm.

NSW Prisoners linked to Bin Laden: Ten News

So I don't believe it! Of course they were Australian dollars, that's because Australia is behind the allegation, no doubt!

Yes my friends, just another way to place fear in 'some' Australians, without actually blowing something or someone up over here, where incidentally, there has never been a reported terrorist bombing!

Bin Laden the Afghanistan Ace of Spades!

This propaganda is reported time and time again to aid the build up of the Australian War Machine and the American Military Industrial Complex (AMIC) in the illegal and degrading imperialism in the Afghan region, in the hope that it will legitimise the killing of innocent civilians caught up in the war.

But we haven't heard from 'where's he bin' bin Laden for so long and now the war has started in Afghanistan it's time to retrieve the draw card again and headlines to excuse bloody war on innocent civilians and indigenous Afghans.

Yes my friends, there are bombers in our midst and the Un-Australian terror cell does exist, offering us their valuable spin to encourage us to turn a blind eye to lies, to the war and the blatant attacks on our civil liberties.

Rois, who also goes under the name of Iwan Dharmawan, allegedly told police under interrogation that a courier had delivered the cash to Malaysian master bomber Azahari bin Husin and it came directly from bin Laden.

But don't you just love it how prisoners are believed when the authorities want to believe them yet if a prisoner pleaded innocent they'd never believe them, ever, unless they were proven innocent beyond a reasonable doubt! So is this a sudden change in philosophy in the war on justice, human rights and liberty.

Allegedly, Rois said Australia had been chosen as a target for the bombing because of its support for the US in Iraq, according to a transcript of his police interview seen by the Un -Australian.

And because it was seen by the Un-Australian you got to believe it right? Wrong!

Did the Un-Australian see how the information was gathered? Before it became a transcript of an alleged interview? And what has that got to do with the initial claim that bin Laden paid in Australian dollars? The mind boggles.

Here we go now!

The Un-Australian:
"As the right-hand man of Azahari and co-conspirator Noordin Mohammed Top, Rois was in charge of logistics and regularly discussed operations and planning with his two militant superiors."

GKCNN: Did he?

The Un-Australian: "His claim is 'significant' because it 'indicates' bin Laden maintained direct contact with Indonesian operatives after the 2003 arrest of Hambali, the linkman between al-Qa'ida and Indonesia's extremist Jemaah Islamiah network."

GKCNN: Notice they used all the "keywords" "bin Laden", "Hambali" the link-man, "al-Qai'ida" and "JI" even though most Indonesians don't even believe there is any extremist group called JI and they can't catch bin Laden but instead went to war on Iraq!

So if the information is false and misleading and gained from a prisoner who is likely to have been coerced then what is this story even about?

Please explain! Try showing us the Australian money!

The Un-Australian: "Rois was caught by police in West Java last November, two months after the truck bombing at the embassy killed the suicide bomber and 10 innocent people, and wounded scores of others."

"What I know, from what was said to me by Dr Azahari when we were still in the rented house in Purwakarta, the bombing cost as much as $10,000, which Dr Azahari said would convert to around 50million to 60million rupiah," Rois told police in an official interview on November 10 last year."

GKCNN: But Rois did not tell police the Un-Australian told us that Rois told police and if the Indonesian police told us that Rois told police, are they also telling us we should trust the Indonesian police and make up our mind about the rest?

Just like you'd trust an Australian policeman? Not even in the witness box giving some type of evidence on oath?

Well it wasn't really an official interview examined or given in a court of law but and official propaganda address by the official Indonesian police.

So really what does that mean? It was officially obtained by coercion or it was officially made up? Or perhaps it was official because no one else witnessed it but officials?

The Un-Australian: "According to Dr Azahari's explanation to me at the time, the funds came from Osama bin Laden, and they were sent by a courier, but he didn't say the name, or when he received it." ?

The reason for attacking Australia, Rois said, was because it was a US ally.

"The intention to bomb the Australian embassy was because the Australian Government is the American lackey most active in supporting American policies to slaughter Muslims in Iraq. It had the aim of preventing Australia again leaning on Muslims, especially in Iraq," he said.

GKCNN: Well not many people would disagree with the statement, "because the Australian Government is the American lackey most active in supporting American policies to slaughter Muslims in Iraq", and that is why it accompanies the other lies because these reporters know what they are doing.

Allot of the truth and a big lie in between to make up for the lie so people will believe it but what I'm saying is if you take it from the start you really have to confirm the first part of the second part in order to agree with the whole part.

What is sadly lacking here is whether this information was given on oath or a true testimony and even then it would be difficult to believe without any other evidence!

In short not many people would believe the Indonesian police ever, so why is an Un-Australian Newspaper so willing along-side the Australian authorities, without ever being shown real proof, from a person that could be believed or without even hearing such evidence given in a court of law on oath?

The Un-Australian: "The police dossier on Rois provided the foundation of the prosecution's case against the militant, who is now standing trial on terrorism charges."

GKCNN: Then perhaps we should wait for the hearing?

The Un-Australian: "With transcripts of four 'official interrogations' conducted with Rois between November and February, the dossier lays out the planning for the bombing on September 9 in central Jakarta."

GKCNN: But it doesn't attest to any coercion?

Repeated for you mind-set but did he tell police? Did he give this evidence on oath? If he's a criminal then how can he be believed while still awaiting trial?

The Un-Australian: "Rois, a 30-year-old trader from West Java, told police the plan to attack the Australian embassy was the brainchild of Top, and he also revealed that Azahari and Top planned further attacks in Jakarta.

Asia's most-wanted men have successfully eluded police since the 2002 Bali bombings.

GKCNN: Including bin Laden!

The Un-Australian: "Azahari and Top had about 50kg of TNT stashed somewhere, Rois said, adding that after the bombings he was told by Top not to leave West Java. "Because, God willing, we still had other targets in Jakarta," Rois quoted Top as saying. The order followed the militants' disappointment with the embassy attack -- only 10 innocent people dead, all Indonesians and, they suspected, mostly Muslims.

Rois said the attack plan was for the suicide bomber Heri Golun to drive the truck through the embassy gates as they opened to let a vehicle out or, alternatively, to crash through them. Yet Golun, who was a novice driver, detonated the truck metres before the gates."

GKCNN: Keyword Abu Bakar Bashir?

The Un-Australian: "In late September, more than a fortnight after the embassy bombing, Top ordered two of the attack operatives, Jabir and Abdul Fatah, to an area in Java. Rois added: "I found out later they went to the Ngruki school in Solo." The order was yet another loop of evidence linking extremist cleric Abu Bakar Bashir's notorious Ngruki school to the spate of terrorist bombings that has shaken Indonesia in recent years. The alma mater of dozens of militants accused and convicted of terrorism, Ngruki has yet to be shut down by Jakarta.

A senior Australian government security expert said yesterday that it was possible that al-Qa'ida had funded the Jakarta embassy bombing but there had been no intelligence that proved the claim. "You would keep an open mind about it. It is certainly possible," he said. The expert judged it unlikely that Rois would have known if any money had been transferred directly from bin Laden to Azahari and Top."

GKCNN: Who might the senior Australian government security expert be? mick keelty? "The expert judged", so we are to be more likely to believe the 'expert' but we don't even know if he/she is credible or if he/she is part of the propaganda or if he/she is actually an expert?

So my point is before you tell us about an expert's opinion show us the money? What are the expert's credentials? Not a bad question if you're going to quote and 'expert' opinion.

The Un-Australian: "With his trial now under way in South Jakarta District Court, Rois faces stiff terrorism charges, and the prosecutors could even recommend that the three judges sentence him to death. He managed the logistics of the attack."

GKCNN: He could also recommend that he give the evidence purported by the Un-Australian today instead of hearing it third, or fourth hand?

The Un-Australian: "Expected to testify in his own defence tomorrow, Rois has denied he was a member of JI. He helped with the embassy blast because he had been inspired by the master-bombers. "I joined Noordin Top and Dr Azahari because Mr Top always motivated me about jihad," he said."

GKCNN: I'm still wondering then why the Un-Australian didn't wait until tomorrow? And who inspired Noordin Top and Dr Azahari? Wouldn't be the American Miltary Industrial Complex by any chance?

The Un-Australian: "Rois also told police his bosses, Azahari and Top, had confirmed they took part in planning the 2002 Bali blasts, which killed 202 people including 88 Australians, and the bombing at Jakarta's Marriott hotel in 2003, which killed 12."

GKCNN: Oh! Great finish only to be commended? It sounds like the Un-Australian finds him guilty before his trial and they even gave his evidence for him?

Perhaps the Un-Australian should stand trial, seems like they know more than the accused?

INDONESIA: US to resume military ties

In the boldest statement on the subject to date, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has signalled that the US is ready to restore full military training ties with the Indonesian military (TNI). But the announcement coincides with new evidence of the TNI's involvement in the murder of two US nationals in 2002 and what is being dubbed the "biggest timber heist ever".

On February 17, Rice told reporters that she was in the "final stages" of consultations with the US Congress on certifying Indonesia as eligible to benefit from the International Military Education and Training (IMET) program. "I think it's a good time to do that", she said, citing what she called Jakarta's "successful" presidential election last year and cooperation in the investigation of the 2002 murders.

Jakarta was quick to endorse Rice's comments. Foreign affairs spokesperson Marty Natalegawa said on February 18 that the program would serve as a "correction for an anomaly" that had hindered relations between the two countries.

The Bush administration argues that renewing military ties with the world's most-populous Muslim country is crucial to prosecuting its "war on terror" [demons, fear-mongering propaganda and scapegoats. This intensified following the devastating December 26 tsunami.

Washington argued that had it maintained links, coordination between US troops and the TNI during relief operations would have "made it possible to respond much more quickly and effectively".

Washington also parroted Jakarta's lie that the embargo on spare parts for US-built Hercules transport planes hindered aid efforts -- Jakarta has been allowed to buy the parts under US law since 2002. It also regurgitates Indonesia's claim that the TNI is "trying to reform" and that reestablishing ties will assist in developing a more democratic and professional military.

If anything however, the TNI's handling of relief operations in Ache -- restricting the movement of foreign aid workers, hoarding and reselling humanitarian aid and harassing local aid groups -- demonstrated that it remains the corrupt and abusive institution it has always been.

Congress first voted to restrict Indonesia from the IMET program following the Dili massacre in 1991. All military ties were severed in September 1999 when the TNI and its militia proxies razed East Timor.

The most sensitive issue however, remains the murder of two US school teachers and an Indonesian national near the Freeport Gold and Copper mine in West Papua in August 2002. Indonesian police and rights groups concluded that the TNI was behind the attack although an investigation by the FBI -- which has been dismissed as a "white-wash" -- later exonerated the TNI blaming instead rogue elements of the armed separatist Free Papua Movement (OPM). In June 2004 the US indicted alleged OPM member Anthonius Wamang for the murders.

In the latest revelations, the West Papua-based Institute for Human Rights Studies and Advocacy (ELSHAM) says it has uncovered new evidence linking the TNI to the attack. In a February 17 press statement, ELSHAM said that IMET should not be released until the FBI "explores well-documented ties between the TNI and Wamang as well as a number of yet-to-be indicted coconspirators".

ELSHAM has established that Wamang travelled to Jakarta in January 2002 at the TNI's expense. Wamang had no prior combat training and ELSHAM believes it was provided at this time. Wamang reportedly claims the ambush was planned during the trip.

In an interview with the ABC in August 2004, Wamang admitted to purchasing ammunition from the TNI. ELSHAM says it now has detailed evidence on two long-term TNI collaborators who helped procure the weapons. One of the two flew to Jakarta and stayed at the home of a serving TNI officer, Colonel Sugiono. The weapons were purchased through TNI agents and Sugiono arranged and paid for the individual's return to Papua. The rifles were not forwarded immediately but stored at the Cikini police station in Jakarta.

ELSHAM says that the TNI's most probable motive was to ensure continued "security payments" from Freeport. According to a communication by Freeport with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, the company paid the TNI US$5.6 million in 2002. ELSHAM says Freeport made these payments in the form of direct monthly transfers into the account of the West Papua military commander. Payments were discontinued a month before the attack.

These allegations are not new. In 1991, Emmy Hafild, from the Indonesian environmental NGO Walhi, claimed that the local military commander boasted to her that Freeport directly supported military operations and helped pay military salaries.

In an article posted by Laksamana.net on September 2, 2002, Denise Leith, author of The Politics of Power: Freeport in Suharto's Indonesia, argued that for years Freeport was willing to tolerate the TNI's demands for money, but on July 26 that year, US Congress passed the Corporate Fraud Act requiring US companies to file certifications by August 14 declaring that their financial accounts were true and accurate. Leith suggests that it changed its corporate policy and the attack was staged to force Freeport to recommence payments.

If this isn't enough, a new report alleges that the TNI is involved in a massive illegal logging racket in West Papua.

The London-based Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) and its Indonesian partner Telapak say that 300,000 cubic metres of wood is being smuggled out of Papua every month to feed China's timber processing industry.

"It's probably the largest smuggling case that we've come across in our time of research on illegal logging in Indonesia", the groups said at a February 17 press conference. "This illegal trade is threatening the last large tract of pristine forests in the whole Asia-Pacific region".

They alleged it would not be possible without the participation of the TNI and police at every stage. "The army, police and navy are all involved but it is mainly the navy", said Yayat Afianto of Telapak, "It is not the institutions but dozens of bad apples, including generals".

The government says combatting illegal logging is one of its top priorities but freely admits to TNI involvement. The coordinating minister for political, legal and security affairs, Widodo AS, told the February 19 Jakarta Post "It is organised crime and it involves many officials" adding it be difficult to arrest and prosecute military or government officials because "they are very tricky".

Even before the latest information was made public, Forestry Minister H. MS Kaban had revealed that illegal logging was costing the state 60 trillion rupiah annually. To put this in perspective, the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank have successfully pressured the government to scale back the 59 million rupiah it spends on fuel subsidies. The resulting cuts will cause widespread hardship and are expected to trigger widespread public anger and protest.

CIA informer tells court of Bashir's visits?

Hearsay Evidence! CIA informer accuses preacher and teacher Abu Bakar Bashir?

The key witness in the trial of Indonesian teacher and cleric Abu Bakar Bashir has told a Jakarta court that Bashir once inspected graduating troops at a terrorist training camp?

Just what the CIA and Australian "diplomats" wanted to hear!

Nasir Abbas also told the court that he was told by Jemaah Islamiah (JI) leader Hambali, that Bashir had taken over as the supreme leader of the extremist organization?

Great! Now the authorities attempt once again to convince people that there is a demon called "Jemaah Islamiah" that incidentally, no one else in Indonesia had heard of until Australia found the witches?

And the innocent man Bashir a preacher and a teacher is the "scapegoat" alleged to be the head witch? From statements made by an obviously suspect informant?

Perhaps it's just the way Bashir looks?

Abbas, a 35-year-old Malaysian, fought in Afghanistan in his teens?

But please show proof otherwise on a truth scale say, between 1-10 I'd give that a 1.

He then went on to become one of JIs most senior figures and the head of its Mantiki 3?

In the 1990s he set up JI's military training camp in the Philippines?

Likewise, how do you know this? And whether he really went on to become a CIA informant?

So on a truth scale again this is hearsay!

The biggest problem though with all of this nonsense is how the Australian corporate media cling to the story like it is the truth and nothing but the truth so help me George Dubya Bushit?

The Indonesian Government, courts and legal system are third world?

Also those Indonesian authorities can be highly regarded and believed?

Just as if they "the media" desperately want to have this story believed - to clear the otherwise very sceptical authorities behind the scenes?

Behind the scenes there are discrepancies and that the events in Indonesia were pre and post the illegal and degrading wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. .

Yesterday Abbas told the court that Hambali informed him that Abu Bakar Bashir had taken over as the emir, or leader, of JI?

He went on to describe how in that role Bashir visited the Philippines terror training camp to inspect the first group of JI graduates in April 2002?

"We wanted this achievement, the first graduates to be seen by Jemaah Islamiah's emir (spiritual leader)...Bashir stayed for two or three days," Abbas said?

"He reminded us that it was all for jihad and what we do on earth will be rewarded."?

Just like a CIA script but on the truth scale "show us the proof" not the hearsay!

Prosecutors have accused Bashir, 66, of using his "religious charisma" to incite the bomb attacks in Bali in 2002 and a suicide blast outside the JW Marriott Hotel in Jakarta last year?

Freedom of speech!

Bashir is also charged with leading JI?

Goes without saying?

Bashir, who has been a silent presence in the court, has consistently denied any wrongdoing and has said he does not know the witnesses.

Dozens of supporters attending the session jeered at Abbas, yelling that he was lying.

In addition to Abbas, two other key witnesses had been due to testify yesterday but did not turn up.

Ali Imron and Mubarok, two of the convicted Bali bombers now in jail, snubbed a summons to appear.

They said in letters read before the court that they had testified in previous trails and had nothing more to say.

Bashir's trial began in October and is expected to drag on into next year.

Merry Xmas Abu Bakar Bashir
