"INCLUDING INDEXES

     Indexes, PRIMARY KEY, UNIQUE, and EXCLUDE constraints on the 
original table will be created on the new table. Names for the new 
indexes and constraints are chosen according to the default rules, 
regardless of how the originals were named. (This behavior avoids 
possible duplicate-name failures for the new indexes.)
"

FK's are not in the the INCLUDINGs, nor triggers.
