So much for the myth that Islam is a religion of peace.



JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — Indonesia's antiterrorism squad has arrested 11 people suspected of planning a range of attacks on domestic and foreign targets including the United States Embassy and a site near the Australian Embassy, the police said Saturday.



The suspects were arrested on Friday and Saturday in four provinces, said Maj. Gen. Suhardi Aliyus, a national police spokesman.



He said the suspects belonged to a new group called the Harakah Sunni Movement for Indonesian Society.



"From evidence found at the scene,we believe that this group was well prepared for serious terror attacks," he said. The police seized a number of bombs, explosive materials, a bomb-making manual and ammunition, General Aliyus said. They also found a 6.6-pound gas cylinder filled with highly explosive material, and videos and images of attacks on Muslims in various parts of the world, he said.



He said the group planned to attack the United States Embassy in Jakarta, a plaza near the Australian Embassy and a local office of the American mining giant Freeport-McMoRan. It also planned to attack the United States Consulate in Surabaya and the headquarters of a police special force in Central Java, he said.



It was unclear how far the plans had advanced.



General Aliyus said the police were still investigating whether the group had ties to established terrorist organizations like Jemaah Islamiyah.
