dik Alex di www.tintamerah tsb.
Kesan saya: gejolak muda yang penuh dengan emosi bahkan mendekati
stress. Wajar saja hidup di Aceh yang penuh hiruk pikuk setelah
badai Tsunami.
Untungnya tersedia fasilitas untuk tulis menulis (semacam diary)
buat dirinya, yaitu blog tersebut. Bisa melampiaskan kemarahan yang
ada dalam diri. Seiring dengan berjalannya waktu, semoga pikiran2
dan tindakan mu..akan menjadi lebih dewasa..adikku...
Syariat Islam, sebagai 'perundangan baru' di Aceh memang akan banyak
mengalami kendala dan akan terus berkembang. Sebagai perundangan
baru tentu saja mudah utk "dikelabui" dan akan banyak menerima
kritikan. Namun dengan demikian, saya berharap semoga semakin mereka
akan membenahi diri dan belajar-Trial and Error.
Saya juga tidak tahu apakah ini saat yang tepat utk memberlakukan
syariat Islam di Aceh tatkala badai tsunami menghantamnya?

Untuk melecut punggung pendosa kelas teri sebagai tumbal agar Tuhan
tidak marah lagi. Sementara itu mereka-mereka yang munafik,
pengecut yang lari terbirit saat musibah datang, kembali menari dan
senyum berseri: "Ahh... betapa indah segala proyek-proyek selama
ini!"

Pada tahun 1996, pasukan sejenis malah berurusan dengan polisi
