Deadly blasts in Bali kills 25.
I don't know, maybe this is an inappropriate topic. but Geez, Bali bombed, again! I went there in 99, and seriously, they are the nicest people I have ever met. Very accepting of those who do not subscribe to their Hindu faith, very caring, and quite frankly - most of them would give you the shirt off their back if you asked them.
I'm sitting here asking myself "Why?" Seriously, it was such a peaceful place when I went there. I actually walked by the Steak house that was the target of one of the bombings. Downtown Kuta. Such a great place.
I feel numb and angry all at the same time. I'm praying that justice is served. But dammit!

It's a pity that all decent Muslims do not rise up and condemn these bombings and (if they know) hand the bombers over to the relevant authorities - is it because they are afraid of the consequences or do they secretly support this barbaric action?
It seems to me that the insurgents have killed more innocent Iraqis going about their daily life than the US/UK coalition has but to what end - just to promote more anti western hatred and de-stabilise the whole region (watch out for Iran here)

There are plenty of muslims that condem this acts of terror again and again. It's just western media that isn't very interested.
