Jakarta bomb

[den]

This morning's news says 16 are confirmed dead, 150 are injured. It looks like some arse-hole from Jamal Islamir drove a van into the covered driveway in front of the motel and set it off.

The PM has offered the Indonesians the use and resources of the Federal Police to help track down the killers.

There is, as you say, no magic bullets. It would be nice if the bad guys could be removed without harming anyone else.

But war isn't nice. I'm truely greatful I don't have to make any of those decisions you mention.

I think the terrorists have shat in their nests. Countries that didn't have terrorists (eg S.A, Indonesia)have had incidents of home-grown terrorists hitting targets on their home turf and killing locals.
