"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

More attacks on Christians in Indonesia. Still no sign of a UN Agency being created to help them.

Unexploded bombs were discovered in several places in the Central Sulawesi capital of Palu on Friday, frightening locals further after a bomb blast one day earlier seriously injured three people outside the city's Marantha Bible School.

The bombs were discovered separately at the Palu Mitra Utama shopping center, the Bala Keselamatan Hospital, a government office on Jl. Cendrawasih and a kiosk on Jl. Tanjung Harapan.

Zainal called the bombing in front of the Marantha Bible School on Thursday "inhuman". The blast left two civilians and a policeman severely wounded. Since early this year, Palu has had numerous bomb threats. The first bombs exploded at four churches on New Year's Eve, but no casualties were reported.
