Though Indonesia's political leaders – Suharto, Habibie, and especially Wahid in the late 1990s – have been interested in normalizing relations between Indonesia and Israel and saw advantages in such a move, all severely curtained their efforts in that direction. Unwilling to become embroiled in the domestic controversy engendered by such a decision, especially among radical Islamist groups, these leaders have preferred to limit relations to informal and ad hoc ties, especially in the commercial sector. Interestingly, it was these domestic concerns rather than a fear that the Arab world would respond negatively to improved ties with Israel that has motivated Indonesia's Israel policy over the last five decades
