LOL. I always expect to read the breaking news reports I receive from Yahoo as follows:
"An Indonesian jetliner has crashed, with terrorism not at all expected, in a residential neighborhood in Medan, the largest city on Sumatra island."
ALARM - 190 people on the aircraft which was crushed in Indonesia
JAKARTA - Some 190 people were in the airliner of the company indonésienne Mandala which was crushed Monday with Medan, in the north of the island of Sumatra, announced the chain of television indonésienne Metro TV.
Nothin' on Google news yet...
Crashing into a residential area is not gonna be good...
That damned Michigan militia.
Well that spoils it for the nut cases.
Obviously, Bush had something to do with this.
Waiting for CNN to confirm my thinking here.

Mandala Airlines 737-200.

Jetliner crashes into residential area of Indonesian city, 30 feared dead

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) - An Indonesian jetliner crashed into a residential neighbourhood in the city of Medan one minute after takeoff Monday and burst into flames, witnesses said. At least 30 people were feared dead.
The plane was operated by Mandala, a low-cost carrier, and was heading to Jakarta when it crashed, Rizal, a witness, told Metro television station.
It was not immediately clear how many people were on board the plane, but Rizal said he saw at least 30 charred bodies at the accident site.
A guy I knew that did lots of travel worldwide said that the airline he hated the most was Garuda, the internal airline in Indonesia. He'd do everything he could to avoid that airline... Is that the airline in this case?
Bush will soon reveal himself to be some Marvel Heroes villian.
For those wondering, Fox just reported it crashed 1 minute after take off and burst into flames.
