Indonesia
From my daily Snowmail:
Tonight we are in Bali, we are also looking at what's claimed to be another communication from bin Laden, and we are wrestling with the reality that this may come to be potentially an even more devastating blow to the planet than September 11th because this was not an attack on the potent symbols of one superpower in which innocent civilians got killed, but was a direct attack on innocent civilians who simply hailed from the west in general.
I lived in Asia in the early nineties, and travelled extensively in Indonesia, particularly Sumatra. I know the Indonesians to be a gentle people, albeit one who've gone through political turmoil in the last decade. I wonder if in the future everyone will stay home, never take a vacation, tele-commute, just so there aren't any risks.
