DFAT warns of further terrorist attacks
Australian Broadcasting Corporation ^ | July 19, 2009

The Federal Government has updated its travel advice for Indonesia, warning of the possibility of further terrorist attacks following Friday’s deadly Jakarta hotel blasts in which nine people were killed and 55 injured.

The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFAT) is still advising Australians to reconsider their need to travel to Indonesia, including Bali.

DFAT says it continues to receive credible information that terrorists could be planning attacks and anyone deciding to travel to Indonesia should be extremely careful.

From New Zimbabwe.com:

African leaders, when ignored, tend to commit more atrocities against their own people. Sudan, Nigeria, Zimbabwe, all come to mind. In recent time, African leaders have found ways to live without the United States. They are now contented with sending the money they stole not just to Europe and the Caribbean Islands, but now to South Africa.

0 had a “special private meeting” with the SA ambassador while in Ghana.

Money is on the move...again.
