LGBT more dangerous than war -Indonesian defense minister
Quote:
Jakarta - Indonesia's Defense Minister, Ryamizard Ryacudu, has labelled the emergence of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered (LGBT) movement in Indonesia as a form of a proxy war to subtly undermine the sovereignty of a state - without the need to deploy a military force.
"I wrote about the subject 15 years ago - this is a kind of a modern warfare," said Ryacudu at the Ministry of Defense's Building on Tuesday, February 23, 2016. "It's the cheapest kind of war there is."
According to Ryacudu, the LGBT agenda is a latent threat to Indonesia's sovereignty, as it forces Indonesia to deal with states who support the LGBT agenda under the guise of human rights observance. Ryacudu continued that the state needs to be more cautious in reacting to the demands of LGBT communities for equality before the law.
"It's dangerous as we can't see who our foes are, but out of the blue everyone is brainwashed - now the (LGBT) community is demanding more freedom, it really is a threat," said the former Chief-of-Staff for the Indonesian Armed Forces (TNI-AD).
"In a proxy war - another state might have occupied the minds of the nation without anyone realising it," continued Ryacudu. "In a nuclear war, if a bomb is dropped over Jakarta, Semarang will not be affected - but in a proxy war, everything we know could disappear in an instant - it's dangerous."
Ryacudu added that modern warfare needs no weaponry - as it is an ideology-based warfare. "This sort of brainwashing is dangerous, as it skews the mindset of our nation away from our base ideology," he said.
Well, he's right that ideas and thoughts are a lot more powerful than bombs. In any case, all this backlash against the LGBT community in Indonesia since January might be a good thing. It's getting press and now LGBT supporters are under pressure to actually protest.

Cool. I have no idea who that is.
Why would the average Briton know who he is? Most people outside Asia probably aren't even uneducated enough to know where Indonesia is.
He can't be any more stupid. **** right off.
But if this is what power feels like, I'll take it.
