PROTESTING 'HIDDEN PLOTS': Student activists hold up placards demanding that the country's Islamic boarding schools (pesantren) be left alone and condemning a perceived U.S. plot against Islam during a rally in Jakarta. Dozens of students from a group calling itself the Student Freedom Movement staged the rally near the presidential palace on Friday urging an end to what they claim is a campaign to discredit Islam as part of the U.S.-led war against terrorism.(JP/Arief Suhardiman)
