more bali bombings

[craigb]

What would really **** off the bombers.....to see foreigners flooding back to Bali after each bombing.

Play these people at their own game.....book a holiday in Bali.

OK, you go first.

Hi all,

Well we can blame the USA for what is happening today. The way Bush and his team responded to 9/11 has created just the atmosphere that breeds this type of terror.

This will go on and on and on. We are just lucky that we are an island that is difficult to access. But it will happen here sooner or later.:mad:

Which side are you on?

OK, you go first.

As soon as work allows that's what I'm doing....

I look at it this way....I fly to work in helicopters...more chance of dying in a chopper crash than in a Bali bombing.

Book a holiday in Bali.

It will take them a year or two to be ready to try it again.
Hotels will offer all sorts of cheap deals.
Air lines will be desparate.

Should be safe and cheap.
Just stay away from the tourist night spots. Go Local .........

Terrorism was around long before 9/11.....terrorism is a business.

Yes, but the chopper doesn't hate you and all that your culture stands for.

In fact, it doesn't seek you out to be today's victim.

Sorry boys and girls but I can see this getting heated.

[RETIRED]

Ok you lot.

I don't often do my lolly but this time you have hit me at the wrong time.

A member who shall remain nameless has just PMED me saying:

Once again you are far too ready to weild the axe

We are adults, we can have a robust exchange of views without nanny sending us to bed.

This thread was about the Bali bombings and is now getting into political areas after digressing into the punishment that should be meted out.

I closed this thread because it will not be a debate but turn into a slanging match about politics, your own personal views and he said, she said.

I am as appalled as everyone else by recent world events but I try to let everyone have their say without it getting out of hand.

Some of you push the wrong buttons and if it continues you may find whole threads deleted.

"Robust" exchanges I have no qualms with. Lively debate I have no qualms with.

Arguments and ideology I have no time for because I get a flood of emails or PM's and have to sort it out.

There is also the problem that you are not on the inside or privy to what is going on and rumours and innuendo have sunk many businesses and politicians.

Hindsight is 20/20 vision and I bet there are a lot on here that wish they had done things differently a few years ago. Politicians and public servants are doing what they feel is right at this time. Whether or not we agree (and, yes, I have an opinion but don't state it here) that is the way it is.
