Bloggers are covering a
terrorist attack on tourist restaurants in Bali, Indonesia.
Over 25 people have been killed in this second major terrorist
attack in Bali since the October, 12, 2002
terrorist attack which killed 202 people, including 88 Australians.
Bali has climbed to the top of Technorati as people search the blogs for news. The Bali Blog blogged about the bombing at a cafe 200 meters from the site of the Saturday night bombing at Raja's Cafe. A Gecko's Tale blogs
about a 2003 trip to Bali and provides photos of the 2002's bombing site
a year later. On a Whim says another senseless bombing. Planet Mole says Bali's
still the best. Opinion Australia says
there had been warnings of an immenent attack but there was "no indication of
exactly 'where' the attack would take place." A Blog Herald post about the attacks links to coverage at the Syndey Morning Herald and News.com.au. The Counterterrorism blog blogs that the likely perpetrator of the latest terror attack in Bali is the Jemaah Islamiyah group which is also blamed for the 2002 bombings.

here, here, here and here -- have "Bali Again" in the subject title. Wikipedia has already set up a
page for the 2005 Bali bombings which includes links to other news resources like this
page of eyewitness accounts from ABC.net.au and this

with Mercedes Corby.
