The Jakarta Post , Jakarta | Thu, 01/01/2009 9:13 PM | National
Hundreds of Muslim students rallied outside the McDonald's fast food outlet on Jl. HZ Mustofa in Tasikmalaya, West Java, on Thursday, protesting against U.S. support for Israel's bloody air strikes on the Hamas group in the Gaza strip.
At the rally, students of various Islamic boarding schools in Tasikmalaya called on the local community to boycott U.S. products including McDonald's food.
The protesters also called on the Indonesian government to send humanitarian assistance to Gaza quickly.
"We will conduct raids targeting American products in Tasikmalaya if the government does not meet our demands," rally coordinator Dudu Durahman said as quoted by Antara newswire.

Not suprise some students do stupid ridiculous staff,do they learn history ?
New order goverment , the annexation of East Timor,the mass murder or anihilation of Indonesian Communist member.
Simple message to those who sympathy with their fellow muslim mens or womens, who believed that all the troubles were created and directed to the middle east people (Islam belever especially)came from U.S , Westener and Israel .
That kind of concept or perception you might call it , it is a huge mistake only a fool or idiot belief such kind of bullshit.
Hey wake up moslem believer don't you know that pedophiles and poligamy are a great Sin. So open your stinky mind and discover thoroughly that the prophet whom you call Muhammad was the founder of great false teacher. He was a pedophile and encouraging polygamy for his follower.
Return and be enlighten to the true teaching of those prophets who can give you the right example by their did and faith.
So you don't life in the darkness all your life and become such hypocrates in your life .
So you may become a great nation whose born from the light.
Thx

This is typical Indonesian victim mentality and herd mentality. We have been 'fed' by TV Stations that Hamas is a victim, when in fact, they were the aggressor who started firing hundreds of rockets right after the truce ended.
Not only that, we also have been 'spoon fed' that we too have been the "victim' of the United States. Why? only because 'bule America' (American) are so rich?.
When can we realize that they are rich because their God bless them and their ancestors worked hard and left them a great country. While we, what did we inherit from our "pendahulu" (pioneer)? Corruption, corruption and more corruption. We also have to admit that our work ethic is not as high as the Japanese, for example. Take a look at our "kepolisian" (police), "Kejaksaan" (attorney), and Pertamina. Not even SBY could do much to clean them up! Well, at least not yet.

Wonderfull that Indonesian's intellectual young people want to mend their own helth and poor Palestinians. It is amazing that Egypt does not open the border for for them. Not even injured people! Will Egypt open border for the assistance of Indonesia? Lets stop to eat American food!
