Oz Embassy bombing

What more can I say about this? You must have seen/read all the news about it. What kind of wreck it did to the people & buildings in the Kuningan business district, when it happened, who the victims were, who (or which group) got pointed out as the the person(s) responsible for the tragedy, so on & so forth.

One thing I can't figure out from these (Indonesian) bloody terrorists is their agenda. Maybe it's part of their fun game, let the authorities (cops, analysts, etc) figure out what they want. Did they try to scare away all the bules? Hell, they successfully generate paranoia to both bules & locals. Was it part of election frenzy, discrediting one of the El Prez candidates? Was it because bombing season has arrived? Wouldn't it be easier for them (& the rest of the country?) if afterward they sabotage a TV station (perhaps ANTV which is located near their target) & have them roll a recorded video where some men wearing black masks state their demands. Clueless.

Oops, did I just give them an idea? Definitely not!! Don't think some terrorrist would have spare time reading my silly blog. But if there is, while they're reading it, I'd just make it known that I wouldn't wanna be standing next to any of them when facing God's wrath when everything comes to an end.

Had a chance talk to several 'victims'. One is an old man whose office is in Plaza 89. Coincidently he had a meeting with my bozz on that fateful afternoon. As soon as I heard the news I called him & his secretary but no luck. Few hours later he called & he was shaken to the bones. Poor old man. That same afternoon he took off to his home town in Papua. Another close friend couldn't get reached either & before I left for the day she called & told me what happened to her & her colleagues (the office was in Menara Gracia, next to the embassy). She almost cried, so tried to calm her down. Managed to visit her on the weekend, she seemed calmer, but still worried to go out. Traumatic.
