Be aware of any large fireworks from Batam this week....

They might not be for your National Day festivities....

I have read a fair bit about these arrests in the last few days, but can't find any reference the 'Rocket(s)' that were supposedly going to be used in this alleged attack. Getting hold of and using rockets to fire from one country to another is not too difficult in Syria and Iraq at the moment but I can't imagine buying, smuggling and setting one up in Batam is that easy.

Still, got to admire the creativity of today's lunatics.....

There was some talk that they would hijack a boat, bring the missile onboard, sail it as close as possible and fire it. As far as accuracy is concerned, I think it should be better than shooting it from Batam. Just saying.
