Al Qaeda reminds the whole world what godless pond scum the terrorists are with another mass slaughter of innocents and the nihilistic nothingness that they represent. War with Iraq, a weapons source for Al Qaeda is now less than 90 days away.... 2002, 14:28 GMT 15:28 UK World leaders condemn Bali bomb attack The death toll includes people from many countries Leaders from around the world have reacted angrily to the devastating bomb blast on the Indonesian island of Bali. Here is a selection of their comments: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The bombings, once again, should be a warning for all of us that terrorism constitutes a real danger." Indonesian President Megawati Sukarnoputri -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The word terrorism is too antiseptic an expression to describe what happened. It is too technical, too formal. What happened was barbaric, brutal mass murder without justification..." "The indiscriminate, brutal and despicable way in which lives have been taken away on this occasion by an act of barbarity will, I know, deeply shock all Australians. The war against terrorism must go on with unrelenting vigour and an unconditional commitment." Australian Prime Minister John Howard -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The world must confront this global menace - terrorism. We must challenge and defeat the idea that the wanton killing of innocents advances any cause or supports any aspirations, and we must call this despicable act by its rightful name - murder." US President George W Bush -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "There can be no tolerance for such deliberate and cowardly acts of terrorism. "The effect on Australia is like 11 September because of the significant number of Australians involved. "What is clear is the attention we have all been giving [to terrorism] since the 11 September tragedy has to continue because out of nowhere comes this appalling attack on Westerners in Bali. This was clearly a terrorist attack against Westerners." New Zealand Prime Minister Helen Clark -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The fight against terrorism is far from over. The EU remains ready and determined to do its part in order to help in the fight against terror." European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Such cruel and misguided violence cannot be the path to a more just and civil society, and it must be condemned by all who aspire to a world of peace built on respect for the inviolable dignity of every human life." Pope John Paul II -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "International terrorism again and again presents the civilised community with frightening lessons... These tragic events confirm that the global community needs to co-ordinate much more closely its fight against international terrorism - the scourge of the 21st century." Russian President Vladimir Putin -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "He completely and utterly condemns this appalling terrorist act. His sympathies are with the families of the dead and injured." Spokesman for British Prime Minister Tony Blair -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Once more blind terrorism has struck, in the most gratuitous, cowardly and savage manner." French President Jacques Chirac -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "If the fears that this was a targeted attack are realised, those responsible must be identified and brought to justice." German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "[The attack] revealed the determination of Islamist extremist groups linked to al-Qaeda... They aim to destabilise Indonesia by targeting the most peaceful and prosperous part of the entire country." East Timor's Foreign Minister Jose Ramos-Horta -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "China is deeply concerned over the issue and reiterates that China has always been opposed to terrorism of any form." Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Vietnam firmly condemns the car bomb attack in Bali and opposes terrorist activity in all its forms. This attack is an unforgivable crime. [Vietnam] sends its sincere condolences to the governments and the families of the victims." Vietnamese foreign ministry spokeswoman
