Sorry to hear about this TR . I heard that 3 Australians where killed . My thoughts go to their familes and to all Indonesians who have to suffer because of this cowardly act. Sorry also to hear that ManU have cancelled their trip. I'm sure you were looking forward to it.

Here, there and everywhere, Bebot is right.

If its not the Muslims, its the freakin' bent Americans...Timothy McVeigh and Oklahoma City.

I don't expect everybody to get along, but this is ridiculous.

Jesus come quickly! (No offence intended to my Jewish brethren. God bless Israel.)

I would say the same thing, but I have Muslim friends that denounce this SH1T.

What DO you DO?

How do you say it.

Bebot said it best, and I agree!

I have muslim friends as well, but I still hate Islam. One needs not to hate muslims just because you despise their religion.

This isn't about religion. It's about cowards who commit despicable acts under the guise of something besides sheer evil.

I can't believe the ignorance coming from some of these posts. You're taking the sentiments of the OP and turning it into your own hate campaign. These terrible acts aren't done by any self respecting Muslim. That's not what the religion teaches. These people that commit these acts are pure misguided animals not to be confused with or associated with Islam. I feel bad for the victims and will keep them in my prayers and also pray that the animals that did this pay miserably.
I can see now that some people may be close to this situation and feel some pain but it would be wrong to assume that's it's a religion's fault that some are misguided. There are many other animals out there doing evil in the name of something. And by the way I to have felt loss because of terrorism but I know it's not a certain people or religion that's behind it, it is misguided savages!

I agree with most of what you said but I think more people would get on board with your idea if we heard a little more outrage from the muslim community, or just outrage.

Please steer away from political discussions because they have the tendency to become endless and potentially nasty. Thanks!

These acts are frightening precisely because they feel out of one's control. While it
was indeed a sad day for your country, I hope you take comfort in the knowledge that you and your family encountered no harm.

How can any of this "Jihad" possibly be pleasing to God's Eyes!? How!? Please tell me how any of this... killing innocents glorifies God!?

It is time for all Muslims to stand up against this insanity!!

Try reading the Quran for a change. In order for you to be a true muslim, one should act as much as Muhammed as possible. And guess what Muhammed did? He massacred people who didn't convert to Islam. On the conterary to popular belief, the terrorists are the ones who truly follow the Quran.

Again, gentlemen, I must insist that you do NOT veer into the direction of a potentially explosive situation. Or this thread will be locked. This has nothing to do with censorship but all with the attitude of some. Do not continue this way. Is that clear?

Easily the most ignorant statement I've ever read on this otherwise fine forum.
