No1 seems to understand what the hell these terrorists establish by doin some thing like this.! Taking over 250 hostages, hurling granades at innocents, planting bombs in heritage structures, taking a whole hotel as a hostage and firing haphazardly!! The death toll here has risen around over a 100 and the ones injured are 200 as terrorism raised its ugly head yesterday night.
What in the name of heaven is goin on! Why cant they just live in peace! This is such a act of cowardliness!
We Mumbaites have lost our most prestigious and the most brave officers in this war.

This is indeed a very heinous act by terrorists . They are doing favour to nobody with such acts of theirs .
Yet;it is also a partial failure on the part of Mumbai and Indian security apparatus .
Seems like there was a big - big conspiracy and it would have been planned over a period of time .

They did not spare Taj :
"
The terrorists selected Mumbai's landmark locations as venues for their murderous mayhem. These prominent and beloved Mumbai spots are part of the city's heritage, sites that Mumbaikars are extremely proud of.
'The Taj' means you are referring to that beautiful, 105-year-old hotel opposite the Gateway of India. There are other Taj properties in Mumbai, but the Taj has always meant that iconic building which is as much a symbol of the city as the imposing Gateway.
It stands proudly on Apollo Bunder -- Bunder meaning harbour -- promenade, which is a part of colonial Mumbai. It is a popular spot for walkers and sightseers. If you have been a visitor to Mumbai, this is a part of the city you would probably have visited first.
The old Taj, with its sweeping staircase and classic wood work, is not surprisingly one of the country's most expensive hotels. The Sea Lounge, its cherished cafe, overlooks the sail boats in the harbour and is known for its view as much for its trademark fare. Many Mumbaikars wept when they saw the dome of the Taj go up in flames early on Thursday morning.

My sincere condolences to you, and to all Mumbai residents, especially for the families of victims.
It is terrible to see this massacre, no religion condones the harming of innocent lives.
I am a Muslim and has seen many of these things in my country.
And even in war our religion has very strict law, we must see the following link : http://www.ummah.net/what-is-islam/war/war5.htm
Have a great day anurag440044 !!! and happy myLotting :)
