Bombay Bombing

bombayFrom AP: BOMBAY, India - Seven bombs hit Bombay’s commuter rail network during rush hour Tuesday evening, killing 131 people and wounding more than 300 in what authorities called a well-coordinated terrorist attack. There was no immediate claim of responsibility in the bombings, which came in quick succession — a common tactic employed by Kashmiri militants. India’s major cities were put on high alert after the blasts. Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh called an emergency Cabinet meeting and said that “terrorists” were behind the attacks.

Let’s face it, Muslims did it. And the communal tensions between Muslims and (pretty much) everyone else in India would ignite once again and burn down one too many. And they can’t blame anyone but themselves.

    Answering the thread on Terrorism in India

    My 2 cents.

    The question is really How do we become Israel & not how we NOT become Israel. Some examples worth remembering
    1. The Butcher of Nazi campaign - Adolf Eichmann, was hunted for 25 years and finally captured in S. America and executed in Israel for his past war crimes
    2. Many leaders & individuals behind the Munich Olympic team massacre was hunted & executed by Mossad over 20 years of revenge campaign called “Spring of Youth” - It killed many who sympathized, supported not just as revenge but also to discourage any future participation in any such acts against Isreal
    3. A single Israeli soldier captured by Hamas is being taken as an act of war pushing Israel to bombard Palestine PM’s house & launch air strikes at whatever locations found appropriate by Israel
    The single objective in all the above is DON’T MESS WITH ISRAEL - We will come after you wherever you are however long it may take.
    Now look at facts on India
    4. The group who kidnapped Indian Home Minister’s daughter and got the release of its members from India prison have not brought to court - after 20 years
    5. The LeT leader Maulana Masood Azhar released in return for Kandahar Plane hijack or the people behind the hijack have not been punished - after 7 years
    6. There have been 11 blasts/bombings in Mumbai in the last 20 years - and no major leader or organization behind this have been punished
    7. Memon brothers family are marrying into Miandad’s family and everybody is watching.
    Anatomically speaking SPINE is the Vertebrae - a stack of individual bones that make up the vertebral column -flexuous and flexible but still providing the rigidity required to make humans stand up and differentiate itself form its ancestors.
    Now to be like Isreal this is what we need - THE SPINE. This spine should allow us to take the following positions
    8. Stand up against any form of terrorism whatsoever - make public position on all world terrorist activities clear - No soft peddling & ambiguity.
    9. No negotiation with any form of Terrorist organization whatsoever - no negotiation/buckling on terms for ending kidnap, ransom whatever the consequences are including lives - It is OK to sacrifice a few individuals in t he common interest of a terror free world. If you don’t care I don’t understand how you could be cracked.
    10. Uncompromised unity between all political parties, media & public
    11. Cooperation from media on maintaining the positive spirit within society & public - just as during Sep 11 in US
    12. A highest body of best individuals put in as a “National Security Council” - which will have unlimited powers across all forms with complete cooperation from CIA, RAW, Military & local police bodies - This council to be made up on agents & officers from all of the above bodies - Build networks & partnerships with key international agencies such as FBI, CIA, Mossad etc
    13. Spend more money on this than other freebies/subsidies
    Once we stand firm on these decisions and stop soft peddling or appeasing, we should have the required strength, muscle, & intent to stand up to these terrorists
    Many of this could already be happening and there could be political/logistic challenges in achieving all of this. But atleast the entire country should be brought on the same page to think that this is how we wish t o stand up to such acts of terrorism

    Archie, I agree completely with every point mentioned in your comment. My initial comment on India becoming like Israel was in context to Indians becoming complacent with terror attack and normalizing the concept of terrorist running around town with bombs strapped to their belts. If Indians do not act now, India will become like Israel with the frequent and consistent enemy attacks.

    With that said, Israel has and continues to act against terror, but has gotten nowhere with it. The ideal scenario is to be like the US, hit them with all the might and shut them off for a long time. A good example, 911 happened 5 years ago, not one attack on American soil since, I hope not to jinx it by writing this.

    I lived in India three different times, and witnessed the ravages of the IMF and World Bank firsthand. My ex-wife is Indian. Her father was India’s Minister of Agriculture. He told me what really goes on inside the Indian government.A few members of the Indian government espouse Zionist views for personal gain, but most Hindus regard Israel as evil. Therefore it is comical (but typical) for the AJC to evoke Gandhi and Nehru.

    India is no “third world” country. It has nuclear weapons, a huge army and navy, an advanced space program, and one billion people. India and China are the two most powerful forces in Asia. (Japan is not in the same league. I‘ve lived in Japan too.)

    India has 150 million Muslims. (Trivia: there are more camels in the state of Rajasthan than in all of the Middle East.) Thus, the Zionist plan is to engage in false-flag bombings of India, and blame it on Muslims in order to exploit Hindu anger.

    Their plan will not work, for reasons I cannot detail in this short space. However the Zionists will try, since a lot of money and power are up for grabs.

    For a couple of months I’ve considered writing a lengthy treatment of Zionism and India in my blog — but I refrained, thinking no one would be interested. Maybe I’ll write one now.

    A crucial factor in the game is Iran — or more specifically — control of Middle Eastern oil. On one side of the gaming table are Bush and Israel. On the other side are Europe, Russia, China, and India, all of whom want access to Iranian markets and / or oil. If these four team up, they could easily cow Bush and Israel. Already the combined GNP of India and China dwarfs that of the USA.

    Do not be fooled when you see these four powers give lip service to sanctions against Iran. All of them except Russia need oil. Russia keeps checkmating Bush’s attempts to impose true sanctions against Iran. This is easy. Russia says it will agree to sanctions in exchange for a guarantee of Iran’s security, knowing that Bush and his Zionist masters will never give any guarantee. Thus, the game continues for now.

    In the meantime, Bush and Israel maintain instability in the Middle East in the hope of effecting regime change in Iran. (They want a new pro-USA regime). They do this by maintaining the war in Iraq, and by maintaining an image of Bush as insane, which causes everyone to keep guessing.

    Bush and his handlers are not sure how Europe, Russia, China, and India will react if Iran is attacked. However, Tony Blair is supposed to leave office by April, so Bush may roll the dice and unleash the bombers.

    When that happens, we can expect to see simultaneous bombings in India and elsewhere by “Muslim terrorists” (i.e., Mossad).
