Terror suspect: Naked women worse than bombings
This is from Al-AP:Alleged terror leader Abu Bakar Bashir said TV shows featuring scantily clad women were more harmful than the 2002 Bali nightclub bombings that killed 202 people, the state news agency reported.I guess that means it's okay in his book to blow up television stations that broadcast programs that include scantily clad women. Just want to make sure I have that straight.
Bashir, recently released from jail after serving 26 months for conspiracy in the bombings, said images of naked or semi-naked woman on television were sinful and chipped away at the moral fiber of Muslim believers.
"So, if I am asked which is more dangerous, naked women or the Bali bombs, then my reply is of course those women in skimpy clothes," Antara quoted him as saying at a public rally calling for the imposition of Islamic law in Indonesia.
Bashir, 69, has traveled across the predominantly Muslim nation since his release from jail preaching in favor of Islamic law and against the secular government. He previously urged relatives of victims of the Bali bombings to convert to Islam and said the attacks themselves were part of God's will.

He does have a good point. Nakedness is very dangerous and rabinical authorities have already warned about the lack of modesty and its consequences. Take, for example, the bombing of bus #2 in Jerusalem, where the rabbis concluded that there was a serious problem with overcrowding and intermingling.
All that of course does not give any license to murder.
