REFLECTION:   Yang paling  penting untuk dicatat oleh dunia ialah bukan 
keselematan jihad, karena  mereka nekad untuk mati syahid,  tetapi 
keberangkatan dan operasi kesatuan jihad tidak mendapat rintangan dari TNI.

No safety guarantee from TNI for jihad force in Mideast



Jakarta (ANTARA News) - The Indonesian Defence Forces (TNI) would not guarantee 
the safety of civilians grouped in a jihad force who planned to go to Lebanon 
and Palestine to wage a holy war against Israel, because they would not be on a 
state mission, a high ranking officer said.

"I don`t guarantee their safety, because they are not part of the TNI," Air 
Chief Marshal Djoko Suyanto, commander of TNI, said after receiving a Yudha 
Dharma Bakti Utama medal here on Monday.

He said that the dispatch of civilians, lashkar jihad and members of 
non-governmental organizations to Lebanon has nothing to do with the duties of 
the state and the military (TNI).

"So, I don`t want to talk about matters which have nothing to do with the TNI, 
which is not responsible for the sending of civilians on such missions," Djoko 
added.

The Indonesian government however does not forbid its citizens to go to the 
Middle East to help the struggle of the Palestinian and Lebanese people, 
because leaving the country is every citizen`s rights, but the government did 
not suggest such activity.

"It is the right of any citizen to leave Indonesia and return to home. But of 
course there are certain limitations namely that those leaving the country must 
have good intensions," Desra Percaya, spokesman of the Ministry of Foreign 
Affairs, said.

He said the ministry had learnt that groups of Indonesians planned to go to the 
Middle East to help the Palestinian and Lebanese people fight the Israeli 
aggressors.

"The government shared their feeling. They are disappointed with what was 
happening there," he added. 

Requests for visas to the region from the relevant foreign embassies here had 
not increased, and the foreign office did not have data on those planning to go 
to the Mideast.

Volunteers from many parts of Indonesia expressed their readiness to go to 
Palestine and Lebanon.

So far, around 72 members of the Jihad Bomb Force had already been sent to the 
Mideast with funding provided by a Malaysian businessman. (*)
