Today's News from Indonesia

(1) U.S. Embassy Families Return to Indonesia

The United States is allowing families of its Jakarta embassy staff to return to Indonesia, saying security has improved in the six months since the Bali night club bombing

(2) Explosion Injures 11 at Indonesia Airport

An explosion rocked Jakarta's international airport early Sunday. Eleven people were reported injured, one seriously.

The blast occurred at about 6:30 a.m. at a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant in the domestic terminal at the capital's Sukarno Hatta International Airport

Well, okay, so somebody at the State Dept. was being a little optimistic. Again.

So far, nobody has claimed responsibility for the blast. Figuring out who did it will be left as an exercise to the reader. HINT: it probably wasn't anybody from Popeye's Fried Chicken.
