U.S. strikes on Afghanistan

U.S. strikes on 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.
