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

www.abovetopsecret.com...

More firing in the Oberoi and Taj, (possibly more terrorists than anticipated?)

Also more explosions at the Oberoi.

"reporters so furious that these guys entered the hotels with rocket launchers... "

Not sure, but Im watching the "live"feed. This may well be delayed to prevent the terrorists finding out whats going on.

Major General Houda of the Indian army just said that the NSG commandos are reporting back that the terrorists are speaking in a dialect of Urdu. He also reiterated that the captured terrorist (from Trident) has been confirmed as being from Pakistan.

This is definitely not good news.

Asif Ali Zardari has offered support to Sonia Gandhi in the matter; however that is a standard operating procedure.

Narendra Modi, the firebrand Hindutva politician of Gujarat is also coming to Bombay. If nuclear war can be avoided, it will be an equally difficult task to avoid religious violence, as Modi and the Shiv Sena have a reputation of whipping up a storm of anti-muslim sentiment.

Don't need evidence,india will blame pakistan and ISI without giving it a second thought.

The question that keeps coming to my mind is why would Pakistan/ISI wana target civillians and blow up hotels in india espicially when Pakistan itself gets grilled everyday by US drones??Pakistan normally concentrates on indian army and its bases in kashmir and sorrounding LOC regions where it has an advantage.Killing civillians,espicially westerners is definetly not Pakistan's style and won't get Pakistan anywhere.

This Deccan Mujahideen, sounds like some hollywood figures in some crakpot islamophobic film.

Who are the Deccan Mujahideen? seems like no one even knows of them never mind heard of them, the media does like to play mind games at times with titles of terrorist cells.

Relationship with India was going very well until this Bull crap took place.

I personally think its a plot to distabalize Pakistan more with pressure from India while US gets 1 more excuse to bomb the crap outa Pakistani Northern regions.

I hope China jumps in to help its pal.Otherwise Pakistan has to pull out its nukes as a last resort before it gets carpet/cluster bombed to cave-man age.

This is what Jay in AZ and I were saying from the beginning. These are NOT run of the mill terrorist forces. The obvious level of communication, combat skill, precision and funding points to something big. The fact that so many are escaping also points to this.

Deccan Mujahideen =
Indian Mujahideen =
LeT =
HuJI - B =

SIMI.

i agree.
Co-ordination and tactics of this kind point to some kind of combat training.
No way they are random extreamists with bombs.
These guys have had major training and are backed by a major orgenisation.
Still its going to be 24 hours soon and fatigue will be kicking in.
They are sure to slip up and then they will be delt with.

There just seems to be so many contradictory reports on whether there are/were hostages. Whether they terrorists are speaking Urdu or Punjabi. Apparantly one of the captured terrorists is confirmed to be from Faridkot, Pakistan but then NDTV also says some of the terrorists pretending to be from Hyderabad.

I havent seen any reports of terrorists escaping. If any have escaped from any of the hotels that would be an inexcusable failure on the part of the security forces.

I would be very surprised if they managed to slip past what must be a considerable police cordon.

Certainly 20 terrorists escaping is actually impossible, since only 26 were there to start with, 3 escaped in a car before going into a hotel (possibly the underworld elements), 6 are dead and 1 was captured alive.

Taj is not clear; all hostages have been freed. There are still terrorists holed up inside the Taj however, fires still rage.

Stratfor have basically concluded the same thing that some of us here on ATS have (less eloquently, I must say). www.stratfor.com...

SO if they are indian,hows Pakistan related to this whole scenario?

Why hasn't india done more to totally get rid of this organisation when they found it's has involvement in terrorist activities?

Only banning them isn't enough!

One thing for sure though,this is definetly not an ISI job.Doesn't serve them good in any way.They mainly concentrate on millitary objectives not killing civillians.

Truly devoute religious people of ANY religion always put God before country. Countries change, boundaries change, God is timeless. No good Christian, Jew, or Hindu would put their country before God either.

They're saying they've found a phone believed to belong to a terrorist. It's been receiving calls from an international number...

Would make more sense to me that it's owned by a overseas tourist

But it seems MANY would kill for God.

CNN is now talking about the group LET. I got some info about them awhile back and posted a link but I'll do it again.

Exactly - how can 20 have escaped? That's ridiculous but it's still going across the bottom of the screen as breaking news at this link

At the moment it seems to be different things reported on different news stations, blogs, twitter, radio, etc. Way too many contradictions at the moment and it doesn't seem like anyone actually knows for sure what's happening.

Update - I just looked at the site again and the bottom says that 20 terrorists entered Mumbai - how can 20 have entered and 20 escaped when they've arrested some and killed others?! Crazy reporting changing every few minutes it seems.

From the source you provided.



That's exactly my flippin point.Pakistan will get sandwiched if India decides to mass millitary at borders and confront Pakistan.Doesn't make sense!!!

I got a feeling though manmohan singh is not one of those hot headed hindu craknut politician who relaliate straight away,he will take his time and analyse the situation.

Any gusses as to which one that is?
