My prayers and thoughts go out to the people that have suffered and died from this atrocity.

like i said in the other thread i live in bombay and we are all completely shocked and horrified here . it was a well planned , orchestrated terrorist attack that could not have been more cruel or inhumane . one would have had to live in bombay to know that the trains are the lifeline of the city . thousands of commuters were returning home from office and colleges ( most colleges are non residential) and to target innocent commuters like that is horrifying and sick . i just hope that the people responsible for this are caught

I hope so too. May God have mercy on their souls. I don't care what a person's beef maybe, there is no way to justify killing innocent people. This makes me extremely angry.

I knew it was only a matter of time Before India got dragged into this.

You know what I just realized? America had 9/11, Madrid had 3/11, now India 7/11. No I'm not some kooky conspiracy theorist, but I must admit, that's quite odd. What's the significance of 11?

To what end though?

The death toll is now up to 145 according to CNN.

Kyrie Eleison!

Now it's up to 147. Here's an article naming two islamic miliant groups that may be responsible for this. Lashkar-e-Tayyaba, or Army of the Righteous, and Jaish-e-Mohammad, or Army of Mohammed. The US says they are affiliates of al-Qaida.

They haven't claimed responsibility yet, those cowards. If they did these horrific acts, killed these people, then you might as well speak up.

I feel for the victims.
