Jakarta Chaos Turns to Bloodshed

washingtonpost.com

<< The heart of Indonesia's capital descended into violence and chaos tonight with tens of thousands of anti-government protesters hurling firebombs and uprooting street signs, and troops responding with a barrage of rubber bullets that killed at least five people and wounded more than 100.

In the bloodiest day of street battles since the fall of then-President Suharto last May, Jakarta's central business district today became a combat zone, with students being ferried to hospitals on bloodstained stretchers, troops beating and kicking protesters who cowered in the doorways of high-rise office buildings, and the wailing sound of the Islamic mullah's call to prayer drowned out by ambulance sirens. >>

Here we go again.
