Enough is enough. I awoke this morning to read of the terrorist bombing in Bali with almost 200 murdered. Sadly many Australians died, ironically included were members a visting Footy team. The Aussies have been great supporters of the United States war on terrorism, unfortunately the stark reality of these murders has now hit down under. This confirms our resolve that diplomacy and polite negotiations will never succeed with these tyrants. Its time to move forward and eliminate the enemy. The time has come to support the US in its honorable efforts.

Here here. I just read about it this morning in the Times, although the name of the team was not mentioned. Which team was there?

There were a number of Australian sporting teams in Bali at the time. The Melbourne (Demons) football club had many players there but luckily all are accounted for. The Sturt football club from Adelaide has lost two members in the bombing and a couple of other teams from around Australia have lost players also.
This is indeed a sad time for all involved, and I'll leave my thoughts about retaliation out of this.

Here is a local Chicago opinion piece I think states the case well.
