oH....this is sad

Re: Terror attack in Mumbai, Hotel Oberoi under siege

New blasts in Taj hotel and Marrior in Mumbai. Police and Army has not penetrated the hotels yet and firing is still on in various places ..... and while I am typing this, report on CNN reporting that something is also happening in JUHU area .....

on top of all this sad happening, get ready to be blamed for it by indian Govt

:(

Update: Times of India reporting AT LEAST 80 dead so far ....

It won't be as easy to pin it on ISI like always. India now has its own home grown hindu terrorists to deal with.

We're all facing our own menaces.

Re: Terror attack in Mumbai, Hotel Oberoi under siege

Re: Terror attack in Mumbai, Hotel Oberoi under siege

Indians will never learn.

I'm relaxed. The post wasn't meant for you. Read the comment above my post.

Did i hit a raw nerve maybe?

Aur agar nahee milla tinka tu khud zabardasti utha kar daal dena teggy ki dhari mey

With the proven track record of Indian Govt of blaming it on ISI and PAK even before the file is extinguished, its something that everyone expect this time too.

Update: Two top cops (ATS Chief and another encounter specialists) killed in encounter

Re: Terror attack in Mumbai, Hotel Oberoi under siege

So far this has been pretty much coordinated attack on a large portion of city... Effects would be devastating for sure.. I have not seen aanything like this before...
Lets hope it gets over soon, and city comes to peace..

Teggy ki dhari hai !!!!!!!!!!!!! find that surprising

Anyway ..... the last time Mumbai had such blasts (1993) it was the memon brothers with help from dawood ...... let us hope it is not the same team again

Re: Terror attack in Mumbai, Hotel Oberoi under siege

^Now we're talking...Yes let us all hope that!

Mumbai Anti-Terrorism Squad Chief Hemant Karkare was killed in the gunfight.

He was leading the investigation into the Malegoan bombing case in which 10 Hindus including an army officer were arrested and was threatening to arrest more Hindi extremists.

A death threat was apparently made against him on Monday

An anonymous caller, who used a PCO to contact Pune police, threatened to blow up the residence of Mumbai Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) Chief Hemant Karkare “within a couple of days”, a top official confirmed on Wednesday.

The caller who spoke a few lines in Marathi on November 24 evening cut the line after giving the threat, Rajendra Sonavane, Joint Commissioner of Police (JCP), said.

I hope the terrorists are not fighting using military-grade weapons against the authorities.
