Re: mumbai terror
You know, if a terroist says he was targeting westerners and Israelis and eye witnesses say that they were targeting westerners....I blieve them. American, USA and British survivors have spoken about having their doorbells rung by the terroists or the terroists pounding on their doors. Also, some doors were blasted open with hand grenades. All these people couldn't possibly be lying. Why some people want to stick their head in the sand and what they figure that will solve is beyond me.
This is what the terroist wearing the Versace hoodie said. Some reports say he is 19, other reports say he is 21. He will hang for sure as he well should. He is the same one that was caught on camera smiling with glee while shooting.

The photographer said that he was a bit far away, the two terrorists probably noticed him taking their pictures but did not seem concerned.
After he was captured, initially he pretended to be dead, and later was arrested when the cops noticed he was alive. Police sources said that he panicked when he later saw the mutilated body of the slain terrorist, and shouted, “I do not want to die, put me on saline.”
Reports have said that in his statement, Qasab revealed all the details of the operation. He said that the LeT had trained fifteen men for the operation for three months, in Muzzafarabad in Pakistan. After a one-month break, they were trained how to hijack vessels at sea. hey wer given digital maps of Mumbai.

Surely even YOU can understand that. Although I have a cousin who married a Nigerian and lives there, I have never been to Nigeria. So, whether you like it or not, a story about Nigeria is not going to jump out at me as readily as a story involving places I have seen with my own eyes and hotels at which I have stayed. I hadn't even HEARD about what happened in Nigeria till you mentionned it. My cousin in Saudi Arabia is on-line so I tend to hear what's happening. I guess I got to tell my cousin in Nigeria to get with the programme and get hooked up on the internet so that I can monitor what's going on over there too.
