The Jackal

Dr Azahari's dead ...

So I heard on the news, his crew somehow blew the bomb killing him and the mastermind behind all chaoses he made in our country.

He was a genius, took his Ph.D in UK, lectured in UTM, he studied bomb howto's in Kandahar, etc but early 2000's he went to Indonesia to converge power. In malaysia itself, he was hunted together with his companion Noordin M Top.

There were some bombings he made including Bali I Oct 2002, JW Marriot Aug 2003, Australian Embassy 2004, and now back to Bali early Oct 2005. Killing most of innocent people and leaving hate among the heart of each Indonesians who either read the news or even became the casualties.

When he was alive, it was so hard for the authorities to grab and bring him into justice. He was as slick as eel; able to camouflage with different identities, moved from town to town .. and perhaps brainwashed some of his sympathisms. So it takes 4 years since his first action to bring him to his knee -well, not knee since he's already gone-. It reminds me on The Jackal .. a terrorist who was very hard to identify, but caused many casualties undetected.

The Jackal itself is a nickname of Ramirez Sanchez; a Venezuelan born person who was the FBI top list of most wanted person; caused significant casualties -most of his targets were VIPs and he dared to kill innocent people in his path in cold ways- His real identity was never known, and like Azahari, camouflaged himself and used different ID's so nobody knows who he really was even to FBI which had a modern method and technology. I forgot either he was captured by certain method or using a person who knew his behaviors, targets, methods, and actions but he's over.

The death of Azahari could cause demoralize to his followers and his actions. But some said one dead come thousands. This is obviously a must to consider, who knows there would be another deadly threats causing not only tens but perhaps hundreds ... Wallahu Alam bishawab.
