India Under Terror Attack! At least ten people killed in Mumbai shootings: TV (now 125 +), page 46

Anyway, just to say something back on some kind of topic...

Here is a PDF link supposedly showing what the M V Alpha was carrying as of the 19th. I don't know if it's reliable, or even noteworthy, but here you go.

The picture is at Sky News - link

Sorry I don't know how to post it here.

Edit to add. Sorry but the link doesn't seem to work but if you go to Skynews.com and click the link saying "who are the Mumbai terrorists" it will take you to the page with the picture.

it is on page 16 or 17 or 18 maybe,

but the picture isn't precise enough to determinate if it is or not.

it is looking like, i'm not hindu (well big admiration for vivekananda/ramakrishna, so if someone obliged me to worship something else than ganga/mountains/sea/earth/the sun/solar system... universe, that will be those 2) but leaving in india/up and i see those very often (getting thick because of accumulation of them);

his face also look more hindu than muslim to me but it is only subjective perception (in the street i usually can spot the difference if there is and honestly i'm not sure there is especially since in the last decades many outcast are converting to islam)

Absolutely.

As Mike recapped, the requirements for this attack were:

1. Extensive special forces tactical, urban warfare training. Reports suggest that the terrorists are using the cover fire and tactical retreat to move further and further up the Trident hotel. This means that the NSG have to clear each floor again and again as the terrorists retreat.

2. A mother ship (MV Alpha).

3. Ship-to-shore ferries to carry all 26 terrorists.

4. Transport from shore to targets (suspected underworld collusion).

5. 26 assault rifles (AK47s)... not particularly noteworthy. However they have HUGE caches of ammo, supposedly in amounts never seen before in a terrorism scenario.

6. 18kg of RDX! Massive, massive amount. And that 18kg is only the amount that has been recovered from the dead terrorists (6).

7. The terrorists are equipped with flashbang grenades and know how to use them. This is a special weapon and tactic only known amongst special forces.

8. Vast amount of grenades; also carrying dry fruit. This suggests that they are trained and know that hunger will hamper their ability to fight...again that suggests professional training.

That is all very frightening information especially with one of the terrorists saying "wait and watch" and with the information that maybe 16 of them are still roaming the streets.

Another HUGE explosion at the Taj.

Definitely it will be a dicey few days.

LK Advani, Leader of the Opposition has just spoken on cnn-ibn (in hindi). The gist of what he said was:

"
The opposition, with the government will join with the people in resolve and staunch solidarity. We must advance as one, with the individual fingers of our society forming a fist. We will take every action to catch the culprits and investigate the matter. Such actions will not be tolerated. It is of great sorrow to us that visiting foreigners were hunted in this manner and we will retaliate in an appropriate manner.
"

nb: He explicitly used the word "shikar" which translates to "hunted".

Is this site live?
ibnlive.in.com...

I ask because they say the Taj is secure and all terrorists there are dead but also at the same time they say there was another explosion

It's a bit confusing...

This may have already been posted.
But if not, here's a map showing all the places attacked.

news.bbc.co.uk...

NDTV

Now they're reporting there's no hostages in the Trident. Only people that had locked themselves in their rooms.

They're concerned about 20 terrorists that may have escaped.
