Twelve killed in Philippines blast
2006-10-11
COTABATO: Twelve people were killed late on Tuesday and at least 42 injured in a bomb blast in southern Philippines, officials and police said. The bomb exploded in the town of Makilala on the southern island of Mindanao during a celebration to mark the town's 52nd anniversary, said Mayor Honofre Respicio. No one claimed responsibility for the blast.

Earlier on Tuesday four people were injured when a bomb planted by suspected Muslim extremists exploded in the busy market of Tacurong City, just 50 kilometres from Makilala, North Cotabato province.

#2  How does one dress for bombing season? Layers, so one is still modestly attired after stripping off the the gooey bits, perhaps patterned with red so the blood doesn't show?

/dear God, I can't believe I actually thought that. So sorry!

#1  Retaliation for the takedown of a JI house and the detainment of the family of a known JI. It is also the bombing season in Asia. I would expect more this month and bombings to slow by Nov.
