Bali Bombers' Execution Popular Topic on Jihadi Internet Forums

The imminent execution of the Bali attack bombers at the beginning of November was discussed on several militant Islamist forums today. Many members asked fellow members to pray for God to save them, while one member went as far as suggesting a plan to kidnap Indonesian nationals anywhere in the world, and trade them for the three convicted men. "We call upon any of you who has the capability to take Indonesians hostages in any country around the world, and request the release of the three brothers in exchange for the hostages," said the posting.
