 In Central Sulawesi, Moslem militants attacked three Christian villages, leaving five Christians dead and several hundred homes burned down.  Some of the attackers had guns.

It is feared that groups like this are cooperating with, and cooperating with, and perhaps even harboring, al Qaeda members.
