Today (October 12) is the one year anniversary of the bombings in Bali that killed 202 people.

Here is Australia it is still such a huge issue, because there were 88 Australians killed, the largest number of any nationality.

I read an article the other day saying that Americans have forgotten about it, because although it was meant to impact on the west it was mainly Australia and Britain that suffered.

I just wanted to remind everyone that it has been one year and to keep the families of the victims in our thoughts. Also (because I tend to be a little critical of focusing on one event over others) let's remember all the people who have been affected by terrorism, not just in the West but in Asia, Africa, the Middle East and South America as well.
 
I'm embarrassed by the lack of coverage about this in the US press. And I sure haven't forgotten. What an awful awful day. My prayers and thoughts!
