| Indonesian black magic practitioner casts hex on Bush |
| 2006-11-17 |
| A prominent Indonesian “black magic” practitioner on Thursday joined protests against US President George W Bush’s visit, slaughtering animals as he cast a spell aimed at disrupting the stay. The ritual by Ki Gendeng Pamungkas took place at a busy roundabout in this hill town which will host talks between Bush and Indonesian President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono on Monday. Pamungkas said the ritual, which involved killing a snake, a black crow and a goat, deployed “Haitian-style voodoo” because “Indonesian black magic does not work on foreigners”. Smearing his face with a mixture of his own blood and that from the slaughtered animals into which broccoli and sugar cane was also cast, Pamungkas offered prayers to “Satan, who will bring disasters on Bush’s visit”. “My curse will make him bloat like broccoli. Bush will feel unease during the visit,” he said. Asked if he was confident the hex would work, Pamungkas said: “I’ve put voodoo curses on white men in Indonesia before, and they all died.” |

| #10 Where did the Indonesian Muslim practitioner learn Haitian-style voo-doo? Two Jordanian Peacekeepers were just killed in Haiti, too. Maybe the mighty Halliburton Crusaders should get the death ray ready to defend against these dark forces of evil assembling to our immediate south. |

| #9 Does he really want to pit his puny powers against the mighty Halliburton Earthquake/Tsunami division? |

| #8 AHAHAHAHA!!! Fools! Don't they realize they're simply out of their league with their puny hex magic, voodoo-like animism? Don't they know that the Illuminati are masters of the Dark Arts, practicing the most powerful of them all, Generational sorcery? I pity them, reprisals will be harsh, and pitiless. |

| #7 Smearing his face with a mixture of his own blood and that from the slaughtered animals into which broccoli and sugar cane was also cast I mean, who hasn't used that as a facial? Tones up the skin and hides wrinkles and blemishes |
