                    [Summary] => The Indonesian embassy said yesterday that the bomb attacks on the Indonesian resort island of Bali and on the Philippine consulate in Manado, also in Indonesia, might be the handiwork of one group.


"The security authorities are presently working their utmost to investigate the bombings and to arrest the perpetrators and bring them to justice," the embassy said in a statement.

But embassy officials refused to say if the Indonesia-based Jemaah Islamiyah, an affiliate of Osama bin Laden’s al-Qaeda terrorist network, was responsible.

It’s significant that the RP Consulate was targeted. Maybe they’ll blame the Abu Sayyaf!

By 1998, the MILF had at least one training camp for al-Qaeda fighters inside the MILF’s sprawling base Camp Abubakar in Maguindanao, CNN ‘s "Asia Tonight" program said.

Police believe al-Ghozi is a member of Jemaah Islamiya, an Islamist group operating in Southeast Asia.
