May god Pashupatinath bless all our Indian brothers and sisters at this moment. We must help the Indian government fight this scourge of terror. I am sick and tired of these freaking terrorists running berserk around the world. They don't have any regard for human life.
PS: Does anyone know about Nepali casualty? I am sure there are so many Nepali in Bombay. Let's pray they are safe and sound. Manish and Udit narayanji, sab kuchh kushal mangal haina?
Excuse me, why should we help them! They are the people who supports Terrorism in Nepal Indirectly! Now they are facing the the terrorism by themselves. Well Its not even surprise for me at all. India will continue to have these attack if it don't stop interfering with other countries business
Why should we? Because terroists are killing innocent people. Innocent people are getting hurt. I heard they are looking for people who are holding US and British passports. That could been you, me, anyone. I hate all the mother fking terrorists no matter who they are and what the fk they believe. Screw em' all.
machine guns, including AK-47s, and grenades to strike
at the city's most high-profile targets -- the hyper-busy CST (formerly VT) rail
terminus; the landmark Taj Hotel at the Gateway and the luxury Oberoi Trident at
Nariman Point; the domestic airport at Santa Cruz; the Cama and GT hospitals
near CST; the Metro Adlabs multiplex and Mazgaon Dockyard -- killing at least 80
and sending more than 900 to hospital, according to latest reports. (

) The
attacks have taken a tragic toll on the city's top police brass: The
high-profile chief of the anti-terror squad Hemant Karkare was killed; Mumbai's
additional commissioner of police (east) Ashok Kamte was gunned down outside the
Metro; and celebrated encounter specialist Vijay Salaskar was also killed. (

The
attacks appeared to be aimed at getting international attention as the
terrorists took upto 40 British nationals and other foreigners hostage. The
chairman of Hindustan Unilever Harish Manwani and CEO of the company Nitin
Paranjpe were among the guests trapped at the Oberoi. All the internal board
members of the multinational giant were reported to be holed up in the Oberoi
hotel.
Two terrorists were reported holed up inside the Oberoi
Hotel. Fresh firing has been reported at Oberoi and Army has entered the hotel
to flush out the terrorists.
An unknown outfit, Deccan Mujahideen,
has sent an email to news organizations claiming that it carried out the Mumbai
attacks.
The Army and Navy in Mumbai were put on alert. 65 Army
commandos and 200 NSG commandos were being rushed to Mumbai, Home Minister
Shivraj Patil said.
The Navy commandos too have been asked to assist
the police. Special secretary M L Kumawat is in constant touch with the state
police.
Some media reports attributed the attack to Lashkar-e-Taiba.
There were also unconfirmed reports that some of the terrorists came in by sea.
A boat laden with explosives was recovered later at night off the Gateway of
India.
Well after midnight, sources said two of the terrorists were
shot and wounded at Girgaum in south Mumbai. The two were driving in a
commandeered silver-coloured Skoda car. Earlier, these men had sprayed bullets
from a police Bolero, outside the Metro Adlabs multiplex.
The attacks
occurred at the busiest places. Besides hotels and hospitals, terrorists struck
at railway stations, Crawford Market, Wadi Bunder and on the Western Express
Highway near the airport. Several of these places are within a one-km radius of
the commissioner of police's office.
"This is definitely a terrorist
strike. Seven places have been attacked with automatic weapons and grenades.
Terrorists are still holed up in three locations Taj and Oberoi hotels and GT
Hospital. Encounters are on at all three places," said Maharashtra DGP A N
Roy.
St George's Hospital and G T Hospital were said to have received
75 bodies and more than 250 injured people, additional municipal commissioner R
A Rajeev said. Bombay Hospital got two bodies and 30 injured people were
admitted there; Cooper Hospital, Vile Parle, got three dismembered
bodies.
Three of the deaths occurred inside the Taj and one G T
Hospital attendant died in a shootout inside the hospital. There were reports of
people cowering under tables and chairs at both the Taj as well as G T
Hospital.
Metro Junction resident Manoj Goel said: "My brother,
Manish, died in the firing at Colaba's Hamaal Galli." Cops fired back at the men
-- probably from one of the Lashkar groups, dressed in black and with backpacks
and SRPF, Crime Branch, ATS and teams of military commandos were summoned to the
spot. Train services at CST were suspended and all roads leading to and from
south Mumbai were blockaded.
Maharashtra Chief Minister Vilasrao
Deshmukh cut short his Kerala visit and was returning to Mumbai. He described
the situation in Mumbai as "very serious".
Deshmukh promised
"stringent action" against the assailants but the mood across Mumbai was not so
optimistic.
आतंक र आतंकारीहरुको न जात हुन्छ न धर्म। आतंकारी को निशाना मा सधैं निरही आम जनता नै हुने हुन्छ। नरसंहार जहाँ जसले गरे नि निन्दा गर्नै पर्छ। नेपाली होस् या, अमेरिकि वा बेलायती वा इजराइली जो भए नि निर्दोष आत्महरु हुन। आतंकारिहरु चाहे देश मा होस् या बिदेशमा यिनिहरु बिरुद्ध आवाज बुलन्द गर्नै पर्छ।
Hallmark of us being Nepali. If in a terror attack anybody else dies, condemn and feel sad, but if Indian dies, don't condemn, and perhaps even......rejoice.
This is perhaps the worst attack after sep 11, the way it's been coordinated. The loss of lives and the magnitude of terror has brought the world to a standstill. There are hostages, gun fire was shot randomly without finding whether in the crowd there are Nepali, Indian, or other foreigners. Scores of people dead. But we should not condemn coz it happened in India.
Sad, I still belong to a country where some of my countrymen still think this way.
prabhat, don't sensationalize it. Only one guy, Virus, didn't want to condemn it. He must be some kid in some college, fresh off the boat, came with a lot of hatred. Perhaps he was trained by Prachanda and company to dig surung to fight against India a few years ago, you know.
We have our issues with India, but they are there, and we will tackle it in a civil way. First and foremost, we muse condemn the terrorists, and make sure that they don't get safe haven in KTM if they ever try to sneak in.
