Suspected anti-government insurgents exploded a bomb Friday evening at the American Information Center, a semi-official US organization based in Nepal's capital of Kathmandu, but causing no casualties.

The bomb was thrown from outside the eastern side wall of the center compound in Gyaneshwar of downtown Kathmandu at around 5:30 p.m. local time (1145GMT), an official of the center told Xinhua.

The explosion has damaged the roof of a toilet in the center and there was no major damage or human casualty in the incident, the official said on condition of anonymity.

Disguntled Nepalese seeking revenge for the recent assissination of the Nepalese truck drivers? Maybe an al Qaeda cell in Nepal? Is there a population of Muslims in Nepal?

The first one is a good guess as to a possible motive for this Grady.

As far as the Muslim population, this is from the CIA World Factbook:

Religions:
Hinduism 86.2%, Buddhism 7.8%, Islam 3.8%, other 2.2%
note: only official Hindu state in the world (1995)

BTW, you may want to edit the title (Bomb explodes at American Center in Nepal) to something less alarming.

I expected a major bomb attack when I clicked on the thread.

Take no offence, but this is what the world has come too:equating Muslims with terror, how disgusting. What we are seeing here are more than likely, the Moaists Rebels who want to overthrow the constitutional monarchy and replace it with a doctrinial Communist dictatorship.

Hey, thier obviously not trained by Al Queda of they only managed to blow up a Toilet.

Changed it.
Is it ok now?
I don�t know how to make it less alarming than this.

How about:
"American toilet blew up by terrorists in Nepal. Bastards!"

Perfect now, thanks.

It's just that this is the anniversary of 9/11 and there was recently a fairly large bombing in Indonesia, many might be alarmed at the old title.

Strange no one has claimed responsibility for the toilet-bombing yet...
