No post today

About the only thing worth talking about today in Bombay is the continuing terrorist attacks. It's 21 hours since the attacks began - they're still holding 3 buildings - two of them major landmarks of downtown & one of these a city icon. Over 100 dead by now, more than 300 hurt, & an unspecified number still trapped inside these buildings. All by 2 dozen heavily armed 25 year olds who don't even know why they are doing it - going by phone interviews of 2 terrorists on TV!

I might do a longer post on the subject after there is some kind of closure, but there certainly will be no normal post today.

Tinkoo, it is sheer madness. I just cannot understand the terrorist's mindset - enacting a macabre dance of death just for the heck of it. Again, some sections of our society are crying hoarse for bringing somebody like Modi as PM and waging war on our Muslim breathen. Hope sanity prevails.

If you can understand spoken Hindi, look up the telephonic interviews of 2 terrorists that India TV did. I watched on TV, but they may be available at their site.
