Militants threaten attacks on Southeast Asian governments
JAKARTA, Indonesia -- A militant group calling itself Al-Qaeda's Southeast Asian Division has threatened to attack regional governments, and lauds two notorious terrorist leaders as "tigers of Islam."
In a website posting seen Tuesday, the previously unknown group warned Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines to expect attacks on government, military and economic targets, and urged Muslims to avoid those locations.
"All the things that we will do are savage acts against humans who do not want to believe in Allah, " said the rambling 41, 000 word posting entitled a "declaration of war." "The swords of the holy warriors are always thirsty for your blood."
There was no way to know whether the group had the means to carry out the threats.
Militants belonging to the al-Qaeda linked Jemaah Islamiyah terror group have launched a string of bloody bombings on mostly Western targets in recent years in Indonesia and the Philippines. Thailand and the Philippines are battling Islamic insurgents in outlying regions.
Scores of its alleged Jemaah Islamiyah members have been arrested around the region.
"The world is changing, and the venue of holy war is getting greater, " the Malay-language posting said. "The war between Islam and the unbelievers is getting sharper."
Indonesian, Thailand and Malay police said they had no information about the site or the Malay-language posting, which was dated October 5 and had a Kuala Lumpur dateline.
"Even though we have never heard of this terrorist group, once it has made a threat via a Web site, we have to be cautious, " Thailand's National Intelligence Agency chief Gen. Jumpol Manmai said.
The statement refers to two of Asia's most notorious terror leaders -- Noordin Top and the recently slain Azahari bin Husin -- as "tigers of Islam" and urges Muslims to follow their path.
The two men, both Malaysians, are blamed for most of the bloodiest terror attacks in Southeast Asia, including the 2002 bombings on the Indonesian resort island of Bali. They are alleged to be key leaders of Jemaah Islamiyah.
The posting attacks Thailand for its crackdown on militants in the south of the country, quoting verses from the Muslim holy book to justify violence against soldiers there.
It also criticizes the secular government in mostly Muslim Malaysia, and apparently refers to events in October when suspicious packages were sent to several foreign embassies in Kuala Lumpur.
The statement said Muslim militants sent the packages -- which it claimed contained biological agents -- to missions of countries that are "the most active in waging war against Islam" and that they had promised "greater" attacks to come. Police said the packets were harmless.
Southeast Asia militants have used Web sites to threaten attacks or justify bombings before.
