Former president of Indonesia wants west to pay jizya
Paying money to jihdadists will not change their mentality, but merely perpetuate it. Yet Susilo Yudhoyono thinks jizya solves everything (Hat tip: Jihad Watch):
Australia and Indonesia should work together to combat terrorism by lifting people around the globe out of poverty, a former Indonesian president believes.By the Koran, not poverty. Besides, where does he think they get the money for buying and building weapons and explosives? Jizya funds that too. The man is a disgrace, and if Australia's government is kowtowing to his beliefs, that too is bad.
Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, who is visiting Canberra, also praised Australia’s acceptance of Muslims as an inspiring example to a world troubled by Islamophobia.
He believes there is a direct link between a more prosperous world and a peaceful one, and is urging Australia to promote sustainable development goals.
“Then more poor will graduate to middle class and become the owner of a dignified life,” he told a defence policy conference on Friday.
Hundreds of millions of people were trapped in insecurity, injustice and marginalisation which led to hopelessness, he said.
“In some of these areas, fertile minds can become corrupted.”
