U.S. strikes against Afghanistan

As an Indonesian Muslim, I would like to call on the public to display its Muslim attitude, namely avoiding blasphemy. Although it might make us happy, spreading rumors is a disgraceful deed, especially if it arouses hatred and hostility among the public.

It is indeed difficult to say exactly what is right or wrong in this high-speed information era. Facts should be prioritized, although they sometimes hurt us. However, please believe that truth will lead to victory over falsehood.

The raids threatened on U.S. citizens and the threatened destruction of the assets of U.S. companies, as well as violent action toward innocent people, which may be carried out by some groups here, are all acts of terrorism. If other countries choose terrorism to fight against terrorists, we should not be provoked to retaliate. Otherwise, it will show the outside world that Muslims, particularly in this country, also have a terrorist mentality, as some have already alleged.
