Oh boy.

A massive bomb has just been exploded in the Marriot Hotel in Jakarta. No death toll yet, but it'll come. 8(

edit: 7pm
News services here say between 8 and 30 people are dead. I have a horrible feeling it'll be worse.

In the early hours after the Bali bomb they were saying 14 were killed when 280 were dead.

THe bomb in Bali was over 12 months ago, and there are still empty spaces in the street where buildings were.

Still no news on this new one

that was from 12 months ago? Jeebus....
this is ridiculous. It just goes to show that there are people out there who are either one, souless, two, heartless, or three, lacking in any bit of intelligence and in every ounch of compassion.
I hope their isn't too much more news on the new bombing...

Bugger just about sums it up. Damnit.
