HERE’S A WEIRD ONE

It’s been alleged that the Indonesian intelligence service may have assisted an airline pilot in killing an outspoken human rights spokesperson by putting arsenic in his orange juice during a flight. The pilot was sentenced to 14 years prison, and no mention was made of the intelligence service connection except by the victim’s family. The pilot, who was off duty at the time, said he’d been framed.

There’re a lot of people —political and otherwise — I’d like to see dead — figuratively in most cases — but I don’t think putting arsenic in their OJ while on a flight is the way to go about it, do you?

Ya gotta love them whacky Indos.
