View Full Story all discussions relating to this in this topic only. -- Posted by Rodiggidy at 12:00 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 what do YOU think? -- Posted by mandieelovess at 12:00 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 That's really a shame. -- Posted by sadnessness at 12:01 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 Crikey. I wish there was a way they could hunt down all the guns, bombs and other weapons, destroy them and prevent any more being made. then we could stop wasting time and money on defense policies too... -- Posted by qi at 12:02 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 Team America: Would Police to the rescue!!!! -- Posted by aniruddhc at 12:18 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 well, i really dunno their reason for doing this. Just to attract attention. I was surprised that no1 is talking about it out here. -- Posted by Amazingness99 at 12:28 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 This is absolutely RIDICULOUS. I am so angry right now. By attacking hotels like the Taj & the Oberoi they're essentially just making a statement against India's economic growth, which just seems so wrong to me. We've come so far and then there's idiots like these people out to destroy everything.   Not to mention, I have family in Mumbai... This is awful. I'm praying the situation will be contained soon. -- Posted by undercoverchic at 7:20 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 Terrorist groups from all over want to instill fear in Americans but fail to realize that they will not be in fear but angered. That was Al Queda's main purpose. I think it's new that Britons are now being targeted. -- Posted by aniruddhc at 7:43 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 Quote: from amazingness99 at 12:28 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 This is absolutely RIDICULOUS.

My family and I knew about it before my grandparents in Delhi did, we just called them and they said they had no idea, because they hadn't read the newspaper yet. -- Posted by aniruddhc at 7:49 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 Lolz.. thats funny.. But I was still wondering as to why no one is talking about it here on LW... I thought it was a very diverse cross-section of society... Anyway, top cops have been killed, the NSG are in Mumbai, curfew in Colaba.. Commandos are in the hotel... Lotta shit going on.. -- Posted by Amazingness99 at 7:50 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 It's not THAT diverse. It must be crazy over there, wow. -- Posted by aniruddhc at 8:00 pm on Nov. 26, 2008 yeah.. but the events thankfully only confined to the fag end of Mumbai, in the mainland... Where I live there's no activity.. So thats good -- Posted by champu at 1:35 am on Nov. 29, 2008 everything is quite peaceful now.. -- Posted by sunshineshower at 5:50 am on Nov. 29, 2008 It's crazy. I've been reading about it in the papers etc. About 195 dead so far, I don't understand it. -- Posted by aniruddhc at 1:04 am on Dec. 13, 2008 Well it was a terror attack organised by insane people who think they are doing it for religion, but actually they're just a bunch of idiotic assholes.. they are all funded by the Pakistani government.. I can give you proof if u want...
