Bali Bombers Executed !!!

Names of the 202 people who died in Bali Bombings, 2002

The long-awaited execution of the 3 Bali Bombers took place early Sunday, 9th November 2008 after six years killing 202 innocent lives in the Bali island of Indonesia. The three men were executed by firing squad early Sunday according to attorneys.

The deadly bombing ripped through two popular nightclubs in Kuta, on the Indonesian resort island of Bali, in October 2002.

"These guys went to set about mass murder, and they've paid the highest penalty," said Peter Hughes, an Australian who survived one of the bombings. I personally heard all he has said on CNN Live at 3.15am Malaysian time, 9th November 2008.

The men showed neither fear nor remorse in recent interviews with CNN. They had asked to be beheaded, saying it was the Islamic way of execution, but the execution was accomplished by firing squad.

Well, it has came a long way for these men to "pay" for what they have done to the 202 innocent lives in Bali back in 2002.

I've watch a documentary on this before, and somewhere they said of the bomb powder used, only about a quarter actually exploded.

Had the bomb fully exploded the toll was estimated to be around 2k.
