Bombs and analysts

Bombs and analysts

From Kompas

Jakarta and other strategic places are the now the targets of terrorist bombings after the Bali blasts last year. As with previous incidents, plenty of so-called experts will soon appear with their convincing analyses that certain countries are behind the terrorist acts, without presenting any evidence.

Following the Bali bombing tragedy, some "analysts" accused America of being behind the explosions, but later it was proved that the perpetrators were Indonesians. Those who wish to make such analyses should convey them to police headquarters for further study.

In this way, information will be focused and the public will not get biased judgments. These bombings are perpetrated by individual terrorists devoid of conscience. Thus, the investigations demand patience, care and a high level of professionalism, and less talk, let alone misleading statements.
