India is not a Muslim dominated country though we have much more Muslims than some Islamic countries. Also crimes against Christians were committed by Hindu fundamentalists, had nothing to do with Muslims.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.
you do know there lands were taken ?
One thing is clear from these attacks, we don't have an effective counter terrorist agency in India.
apparently the police were warned about this a day before but nothing was done.
The collision was caused because some people seemed unable to comprehend that Muslims were not the only victims of that war.
Ethnic cleansing happened when the war already started, Sultan. There was no ethnic cleansing in the time of peace. Don't you understand the difference?
Ouch, that hit a nerve
He truely is a poor example of an Israeli... I hope he finds it in his heart to discover peace and harmony in the world.
*(I was going to say something rude and possibly hurtful, such as, 'What a fecking jackass HR can be! His soul is so torn and twisted, that he couldn't withhold the compulsion to express his country's most MORONIC idiology!')
As an American, I've been reading mostly through this thread... but I have the dignity and respect for all those involved, choosing not to comment quite so much because of the pain and suffering that the USA have contributed to that region of the world.
In case you are still tracking this thread, HR... Go grab a dictionary and look up the word 'Discretion'.
It must be recognised that it is very difficult to defend against this type of highly coordinated attack - this attack has been very different to anything that has come before in India.
I just heard on news that some of the attackers had checked into the hotels as guests and another few were already working there as employees - very difficult to deal with threats that have been planned to such a high degree.
However, I am amazed that almost 2 days on the whole situation is still ongoing.

Can't believe this is still going on
Question: is the split between Muslims and Hindus in India mainly along racial lines? Or is it more mixed than that, like in Britain now where someone's race is a very poor indicator of their religious affiliation (if any)?

no. he's a cnut
Qaradawi's views probably account for less than 15% of Muslims, with the vast majority of them being in the Middle-East. You want to know REAL Muslim opinion on Terror? Read up on Gibril Haddad, Hisham Kabbani, Nuh Ha Mim Keller, Abdul Hakim Murad (Henry Winter's brother btw), and many others of their ilk. But you wont read them, cos no doubt, you've already read them, and they contradict your prejudiced views on Islam...
The point is, if Pakistani nationals are involved in these atrocities, it won't be the first time, or the last time citizens of another country will have caused trouble to another country. The logical, and rational thing to do would be to get the various agencies of both countries together, and work as team for the good of both countries to eliminate the curse which affects us all.
ISI helping our agencies. Not a chance. They are the ones who have close links with the terrorists.
Not unless Bush is involved somehow. I'm still surprised rooney's prediction that Bush would stage a terror attack and implement martial law so he could indefinitely postpone the Presidential election and rule forever didn't come true.
5% of the worlds Muslims won't have even heard his name Bro!
He's mostly known in the Emirates. All the Emiratis I know do not conform to his views.
Anyone know the answer to this?
Just wait...Obama will pull off a mask, a la mission impossible, and reveal himself to really be Bush soon enough...
Five bodies found at the Jewish Centre.
And another explosion coming from the Taj. Six more terrorists in the hotel.

No they're not split along racial lines. Indian Muslims and Hindus are the same race.
Im a bit confused by this question - perhaps you need to rephrase it?
That's so stereo typical.
There is a lot to be gained by both countries. Both India, and Pakistan have a common goal to eliminate this curse.
I dunno about that bruv, been all over the Mid-East just this past summer, and it was his face that was plastered all over the place...
Five people have been killed at Nariman House, India's Times Now channel reports. National Security Guards chief JK Dutt says militants killed three hostages and fled. Commandos killed two militants, he adds.
How could they've fled? I thought they had surrounded the building?

I am hopeful in your suggestion... but Pakistan is struggling with enormous civil strife. I can't imagine that Pakistan could negotiate good relations on behalf of all it's people, at this point. Maybe some time in the future.
The very least, they could begin to lay the groundwork for better relations. Couldn't hurt. - It might even flush out the dissenting factions.
According to reports three gunmen have fled from Nariman house after killing hostages.
I hope this is not true. It's going to be hard to explain this away.

Too many foreigners in this world. It's all their fault. Makes me sick this does!

where did you hear that ? there's nothing on the news here
BBC
"1331 Five people have been killed at Nariman House, India's Times Now channel reports. National Security Guards chief JK Dutt says militants killed three hostages and fled. Commandos killed two militants, he adds."
MSNBC is now saying that two Americans, a father and 13 year old daughter from Virginia, USA have been found dead.

Im just wondering about the amount of ammunition the terrorists have in their possession.
Attacking Pakistan would be a huge mistake IMHO. You do know that the vast majority of Muslims in Pakistan are of the Barelwi/Sufi and Deoband varieties, dont you? The whole basis of the Barelwi sect is peaceful love and rememberance of the Prophet (PBUH). I should know, I am one. While the Deoband specifically advocate an anti-terror stance, although a very tiny and very stupid minority from Britain, did perpetrate the 7/7 attacks
Course, there are some Wahabbis, but they are largely insignificant, and most of the ones I have met, dont concern themselves with the politics of Bin Laden & Co.
