Quake and Tsunami Devastate South Asia
pfb writes "From reuters, 'The world's fifth-largest quake in a century has hit southern Asia, triggering a speeding tsunami that crashed into Sri Lanka and India, drowning hundreds, and swamping tourist islands in Thailand and the Maldives.'"
Interesting. For me, and most people in the world, a US military base would be absolute bottom on any list of worries. Especially the one at Diego Garcia, given its history. It's been cleansed already of its rightful inhabitants by the leaders of the free world; it would be fitting if the military base got wiped out too.
