Indonesia condemns 'terrorist attack' on embassy (Australia)

[anakie]

The Indonesian Government says it will not be swayed by what it has called an "act of cowardice" in the delivery of a potentially hazardous parcel to the Indonesian embassy in Canberra.

It has also called on Indonesians not to react to the incident amid the incident being labelled as "terrorism" by political and media circles.

The news from Canberra has dominated Indonesian press and television reports.

Parliamentarian Joko Sisilo, who sits on Indonesia's House Foreign Affairs Committee, says Indonesia should now issue travel warnings for Australia.

He says the attack proves Australians are capable of committing their own acts of terrorism.

possibly in reaction to the Corby verdic.

1. Howard is saying that the material

did contain a bacteria, "in the same family" as anthrax. Further tests are being done to identify the bacteria further. I hope their investigation of this, anthrax or not, goes better than our own.

2. And where would the

perpetrator get a hold of such biological powder?

This is becoming tit for tat with these two countries.
