9/22/2003: Indonesians kick at terror



Oh brother. The official caption says Indonesia's corporately attired Presidential Guards show off their martial art skills at an anti-terror drill in Jakarta. I really don't know what to make of this.

Denbeste has said that Indonesian government's response to the war on terror was originally weak, at least until the huge bombing in Bali. But I'm not sure the response of having an outfit of western-suited martial artist wankers is going to have much of an impact.

Then again, we see repeated video tape of terrorists going over monkey bars as some sort of exercise. It's good training for hijackers because you never know when a jungle gym is going to suddenly present itself from out of nowhere.
