Bombs in Bangladesh

This has hardly made a dent in the US news because, well, it's Bangladesh. But it should.

More than 100 homemade bombs planted by suspected Islamic militants exploded nearly simultaneously across Bangladesh on Wednesday, killing two people, including a young boy, and wounding at least 125.

About 50 people were arrested, a state-run news agency reported. There was no claim of responsibility, but leaflets from a banned group seeking the imposition of Islamic law were found at many scenes.

It would only make a dent in US news if it affected the interest of US.
