    Bomb attack in Bali kills 188 foreigners...



    Indonesian police say two bombs were responsible for the deaths of at least 182 people, most of them foreigners, on the island of Bali.

    They say the dead included nationals from Australia, Britain, France, Germany, New Zealand, Canada and Sweden.

    The explosions completely destroyed the Padi and Sari clubs on Kuta's main entertainment strip at around 11.00pm local time, causing damage to buildings as far as half a kilometre away.

    Some of our AFL and Rugby players were there

    The attack destroyed 27 buildings, but police say most of the dead were inside the Sari Club.

    Death Toll is now 188, with 200 still missing... It would appear to be definately a terrorist attack..

    The Australian investigators will join with agents from Indonesia and the United States, who are trying to discover who is behind the attack.

    Australian Foreign Minister Alexander Downer says it appears on preliminary investigations that a radical Islamic group may be responsible.
    As rj said at galah... to put that into perspective for you non Australians... we lost the same percentage of our population yesterday, as America did on 9/11

    Exactly what I thought when the first thing I heard on the news was 'footy players feared missing'. Such a wonderful indicator of Australian culture...
