    Major Terrorist Attacks in India

    http://www.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapc...cks/index.html

    Gunmen have targeted nine locations in south Mumbai, including two luxury hotels. A state spokesman put the death toll at 78. Gunmen are holding hostages at the Taj Mahal and Oberoi hotels, police said. One witness told reporters gunmen had tried to find people with U.S. or British passports.

    Ah, my bad. I didn't realize it would go in the political forum.

    I knew it was weird that there was no thread on it yet.

    Damn it! DAMN IT!

    It's better here, where more folks will see it.

    At any rate, this is absolutely horrible news. I know that the Oberoi hotels are like the ultimate in luxury hotels. 78 dead is just amazing and so very, very tragic. RIP.

    Wow. They actually targeted a hospital. That tells you pretty much everything you need to know about those who carried out the attacks.

    If there was an after-life these attacks wouldn't have happened in the first place.

    RIP to the victims and condolences to the families who suffered tragic losses today.

    I keep getting this sick feeling that something worse is just around the corner. Like this whole thing is just a diversion to get the world's attention away from something ten times as horrible.

    Re: Major Terrorist Attacks in India

    I thought I read somewhere on this site that someone was going to India for a wedding. IIRC the user name is JL25 or something like that. If that person went, I hope they are safe.

    I had forgotten all about it until you mentioned it. I hope they're OK. I don't recall where the wedding was at, though.
