Police found in one of the most feared Islamic militants' hideout in Indonesia a video material in which a masked man threatens the US, Australia and the UK, AP informs.

"We repeat that America, Australia, England and Italy are all our enemies", he said with a Malaysian accent.

The authorities believe that the man appearing in the video is Noordin Mohamad Top, one of the leaders of the Jemaah
Islamiyah terrorist group, which is linked to al Qaeda.

"We especially remind Australia that you, Downer and Howard, are killing Australia, leading it into darkness and misfortune and mujahedeen terror", the man also said referring to the Minister of External Affairs, Alexander Downer, and PM John Howard.

The videotape also showed the three suicide bombers who were responsible for the death of 20 persons in the Bali restaurants.

Recently, the Indonesian police tracked Azahari bin Husin, chief bomb maker in the Jemaah Islamiya group, but while they attempted to apprehend him, the terrorist detonated a series of bombs, killing himself.

Australian police recently avoided a possible terrorist attack by arresting 17 extremists in Melbourne and Sydney. In light of the latest findings, it seems that they were planning an attack on the Sydney nuclear power plant.
