    What is their motivation?
    What is their goal?
    Who organised the attack?
    Are they again muslim "freedom fighters"?

    You are obviously trying to get traffic out of something horrible.

    Why couldn't you link to Sky, or the BBC? Or Google News? Why your blog?

    Was just about to go out for the night when my GF called and told me to stay put at home. Have been watching the news since then.

    Its really grim, 4 hours gone and control not been taken yet, Military, Navy, Anti Terrorist Squad, National Security guard all have been dispatched in Mumbai.

    They have targetted the biggest 5 star hotels. Taking hostages and throwing hand Grenades and shooting with AK-47s out of the hotel.

    Deaths are going up by the minute!! .. Terrorists also going around the city in vans and shooting randomly and throwing hand Grenades at people.

    Its a really bad situation, doesn't look like the situation will be control so soon.

    I just watch the news and they are saying that some women were also involved in the firing. And a group called "Dakkan Mujahidin" has accepted the responsibility of all these attacks ~ Times of India

    82 Killed & more than 250 are injured.

    Really sad situation, I didn't know about it until I read this thread.

    That's the 2006 attack on the railways. This one is worse than that. Hostage situations and widespread terror. Some of the terrorist are running out and creating more mayhem.

    yes , they say arnd 26 terrorists, have attacked the city. army has started action at hotel taj. The major concern --police and army have, that they never thought the terrorists wld attack 7 star hotels and before they can take action, the terrorists have taken control. 20 hostages reported in taj and 6 grenade attacks in hotel taj. At this time 78 persons has been reported killed, included head of ATS (anti terrorist) chief Hemant karkare , reported dead. its 2:25 am and news still coming in. God knows when will this end. 2 terrorists reported killed

    how many of u friends were in Iraq ?? .. My friend is in the Taj Hotel. And the Iraq scene was a war, this is a terrorist attack.. There is a difference. If i were in Iraq i would have reacted this way to the death toll there. But when things are happening closer to you, you will tend to react more.

    You call this life? .. Go around killing innocent people. You must be coming from a real ugly place in this world.
