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.
http://www.antara.co.id/en/seenws/?id=17825 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.
