Crikey.

Sheesh

Indonesia is a viscous ants nest... the largest Muslim population in the world

Having been to Bali a couple of times in my younger years (you couldn't pay me to go back) I warn friends now to second think going over there for a holiday

Bali's the absolute prime place for a large scale attack against western tourists... all drunk, fat, lazy... drinking alcohol and whoring balinese girls in a very muslim place awash with militants is dumb if you ask me.

Keep in mind these attacks were initiated by the prison riot:

Sources close to police say the rioters, who claimed loyalty to Islamic State (ISIS), seized control of 88 firearms, including 59 assault rifles and 29 pistols, and a staggering 28,400 rounds of ammunition.

Indonesian police have had a sharp wake-up call following the May 9-10 riot by hard-core Islamic militants at a police detention center on the southern outskirts of Jakarta. The siege left five policemen brutally murdered and the terrorists in charge of enough weaponry to start a war.

There go them peace loving Muslims again.

Around 1 million Aussies visit Indo each year, if they wanted us dead they would have no problem getting the job done, perhaps they are just lazy.

I thought the majority of Balinese were Buddhist?

Bali isn't predominantly Muslim, it's Hindu.

sorry i should have said ''indonesia'' and not specified Bali

Islam is the most adhered religion in Indonesia, with 87.2% of Indonesian population identifying themselves as Muslim in 2010 estimate.[1][2] Indonesia has the largest Muslim population in the world, with approximately 225 million Muslims.

In terms of denomination, absolute majority adheres to Sunni Islam, while there are around one million Shias (0.5%), who are concentrated around Jakarta,[3] and about 400,000 Ahmadi Muslims (0.2%)

It's fine there. They pardon extremist leaders who instigate terrorist acts, and shoot people with a few k of smack. No questions asked.

Dada = death.

Terrorism = Pardon because it's ramadan.
