#1 From Reuters: Jakarta, Aug 7: Indonesian police have arrested two men suspected of involvement in the bombing of the JW Marriott Hotel in the capital, Jakarta, Metro Television reported on Thursday. The men had been arrested on the outskirts of Jakarta as suspects in the attack on Tuesday that killed 10 people and wounded 150. Police could not be immediately reached to comment.
Rounding up the usual suspects?

#2 Different suspects from a different bombing:
INDONESIAN police have arrested two people over three recent bombings in the capital, but the pair are not suspected in this week's deadly blast at the Marriott Hotel in Jakarta, police said today. Colonel Andi Chairuddin, chief of Jakarta police detectives, said the two men were arrested late yesterday at two separate locations in eastern Jakarta. The two were allegedly involved in a bombing at Jakarta's International Airport on April 28 that injured 11 people, and two other recent smaller blasts at the parliament and near the United Nations building in Jakarta, Chairuddin said.
I'll bet they have the same circle of friends.

#3 My wife and daughter work at a local Marriott. I hope the idiocy is confined to the lunipelaigo of Indonesia, and doesn't spread. BTW, the Marriott corporation is owned by members of the Mormon faith, which may be another reason it's been chosen to be "graced" by islamofascists.
