Handlers on phone ordered Mumbai gunmen to kill

hosted.ap.org

NEW DELHI (AP) -- "Keep your phone switched on," a handler instructs a gunman by phone in the midst of the Mumbai siege, "so that we can hear the gunfire."

The ruthless commands come from a transcript of phone calls Indian authorities say they intercepted during the attacks in November. India says the men issuing orders, reprimands and encouragement to the young gunmen were Pakistani-based militants directing the attacks by mobile phone.

The men on the phone were confident, direct - and brutal.

"We have three foreigners, including women," a gunman said into the phone from the Oberoi Hotel where hostages had been captured.

"Kill them," replied the handler. Gunshots then rang out, followed by cheering that could be heard over the phone.

"Inflict the maximum damage," they said.

This story goes deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole as time goes on. It seems more and more information is coming out about the attacks in Mumbai all the time. These were very well coordinated attacks, which just goes to show everyone that the people that are plotting, planning, and carrying out these attacks are not stupid, but on the contrary are very resourceful. It seems that they were "coached" throughout the entire attack, and given encouragement and orders as well.

I find it a little sick that they actually wanted to hear the gunfire over the phone.Thats pretty messed.
I do doubt how true the article is tho because its from new delhi and I think it might be biased and have an agenda.
I hope war is something they don't want but for some reason I really doubt it.

There really is no telling. I have always heard people say that there is no 3rd world country that is worse than the US....

With so much deception going on in the world today, we may never know. would not surprise me.
