It seems that Indonesia has a problem with Christian terrorists who hunt down and terrorize Muslims. They employ al Qaeda-like tactics such as beheading Muslims.
A dozen Christian men were convicted Thursday and sentenced to up to 14 years in jail for beating to death and beheading two Muslims to avenge the government executions of three Christians in Indonesia last year.
Five other Christians received eight-year terms for burying the pair, who were set upon by a mob as they drove though a Christian neighborhood on Sulawesi island a day after the Sept. 22, 2006, executions of Fabianus Tibo and two other Christian militants.
The three executed Christians had been found guilty of leading a militia that killed at least 70 Muslims during a 1999-2002 religious war on the island that led to the deaths of at least 1,000 people from both faiths.
These Christians were convicted under anti-terror laws in Indonesia.
Obviously all such abhorrent acts should be condemned. Too bad there is no outcry against such acts when committed against Muslims as opposed to by Muslims.
