New Au contraire.
The [link|http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/middle_east/july-dec97/egypt_11-17.html|Luxor Egypt] terrorist attack was similar in targeting. [link|http://www.adl.org/terrorism_america/bin_l.asp|Osama...]
gradually became more and more affiliated with Egyptian Islamic extremist groups, such as Egyptian Islamic Jihad.
Osama's right hand man, and perhaps the man in charge now, is Ayman al-Zawahiri of Egypt's Islamic Jihad. You may recall the Islamic Jihad wanted to make Egypt a religious state. And, Indonesia as we know has a Jemaah Islamiah, faction, linked to Al Queda, with similar goals. Also the Abu Sayyaf guerrillas in the Philippines.

Al Queda has a larger scope and has a menu of things they can do.

New Re: No, those attacks were aimed at their own govt


These islamic extremists killed Sadat & have tried to kill Mubarak (the current PM). They ere at that time happy to bring down their own county's economy.

It is not impossible that such elements are emerging in Indonesia but to give that line credit is to ignore the more obvious ones.
