Facing Death Row, Bali Bombers Apparently Are In No Hurry For Their 72 Virgins

Whine, whine, whine. This actually is pretty funny as you may recall, when the Bali bombers were convicted of the heinous act they blabbed on and on about their welcoming martyrdom but now, as the clock ticks closer to them being exterminated, they are making a fuss and warning of revenge attacks if they die. Here's the details from Breitbart:

Three Indonesian Muslim militants who are on death row for the 2002 bombings on the resort island of Bali warned Wednesday of revenge attacks if their executions go ahead.
"If someone kills us, with God's willing, there will be revenge," Imam Samudra told reporters at the maximum security prison on Nusakambangan Island off Java who were allowed to cover the Eid al-Fitr celebrations there marking the end of the Muslim fasting month.
Samudra claimed that his followers across the country are ready to seek revenge if the executions take place.
He claimed he will not be executed because government prosecutors are too afraid to face the consequences, adding that he told his family "to be patient, because there will never be any executions."

What's the old saying? "If You Can't Do The Time, Don't Do The Crime"? It's nice to see these jihadists show their cowardice on the world stage - I'm sure their al Qaeda brothers will be proud of it.

By the way, if Bali is a little skittish about the executions...I'm sure the U.S. or Australia would be more than happy to accept transfer of these swine and do the deed for Bali. Both the U.S. and Australia lost citizens in the Bali bombing.

Bali bombers warn of attacks if executed

JAKARTA, Oct. 1 (AP) - (Kyodo)—Three Indonesian Muslim militants who are on death row for the 2002 bombings on the resort island of Bali warned Wednesday of revenge attacks if their executions go ahead.
"If someone kills us, with God's willing, there will be revenge," Imam Samudra told reporters at the maximum security prison on Nusakambangan Island off Java who were allowed to cover the Eid al-Fitr celebrations there marking the end of the Muslim fasting month.
Samudra claimed that his followers across the country are ready to seek revenge if the executions take place.
He claimed he will not be executed because government prosecutors are too afraid to face the consequences, adding that he told his family "to be patient, because there will never be any executions."
The Bali bombing trio had been set for execution before the start of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which began on Sept. 1.
But the prosecutors delayed the executions until after the Eid al-Fitr holiday with no clear reason. A source at the elite police unit Mobile Brigade said the executions may take place two weeks after Eid al- Fitr.
While speaking with reporters Wednesday, Samudra refused to offer an apology to non-Muslim victims in the bombings that had killed 202 people, mostly Western holidaymakers. Australia recorded the largest number of victims with 88 of its citizens being killed in the terrorist acts.
"I will not apologize to the infidels, I will only offer my apology to the Muslim victims," Samudra said.
Along with another Bali bomber on death row, Mukhlas alias Ali Ghufron, he pointed his finger at the American and Australian journalists attending the Eid al-Fitr event, calling them the "number one enemy."
"I've never regretted the bombings...I feel very proud of it," he said, adding he will only apologize to the non-Muslim victims if the United States and its allies end the war on terror.
Meanwhile, Mukhlas's brother Amrozi, who was dubbed "the smiling bomber" for his broad grins during his trial, said he would plan other bombings if not executed.
"If I'm given a chance to have a long life, I want to do some bombings again," he told reporters.
Amrozi, Mukhlas and Samudra were all sentenced to death by a Bali court for their roles in the nightclub bombings. The Supreme Court rejected their filings for reviews.
Lawyers said the militants and their families will not seek a presidential pardon. However, they filed a judicial review at the Constitutional Court, saying that execution by firing squad amounts to torture because they may not die immediately.
Since June 26, Indonesia has executed seven people for various crimes.
In a related development, the Australian Embassy organized a simple ceremony on Bali to mark the third anniversary of a second set of Bali bombings.
