It is really suprising that the terrorists had no demands at all and didnt even try to contact the goverment. They called up a specific news channel twice, and talked for over 15 minutes each time, trying to spread their message of hate. The guy kept clai..
I heard my first bomb explosion at 14. Except, I thought it was a tar drum rolling down a bridge at the time. All alone in class and making out a list for a school farewell party the next day, I pricked up a ear at the low boom and went back to laboriousl..
This post is prone to rambling, rant and other similar emotions. I have come to office today after 2 days off to learn some month-end activities. They haven’t started so I checked the net for news on Mumbai attacks like I have obsessively done for so..
I talked of many emotions yesterday and I am left with only two now. Grief and Rage. Grief and Rage. How could this happen to us? How DID this happen to us? There are horrifying stories of people being killed at point blank range, there are images of a yo..
I havent watched much of the action in last 60 hrs or so..but have watched news capsules here and there..and first rection was ‘SAD..indeed SAD’..it was like ur watching a nightmare with open eyes.How could they do something like..for that matter how..
India is under attack. The unprecedented audacity and scale of the terror attack in the heart of India's financial capital has shaken almost the whole world. For nearly two days, beginning the evening of..
The spirit of Mumbai... Mumbai bounces back... Mumbaikars will fight back... Messages that are supposed to make people feel good? I am tired of hearing..
# NSG Commandos - North Indians and South Indians have come to Mumbai so that Raj Thakre can sleep peacefully. Pl forward this so that it finally reaches the cwd bully!..
Terror has struck again, but using different means and modus operandi. In the 2006 peak-hour serial blasts in the suburban trains (the lifeline of Mumbai), the terrorists hid explosives in the first-class compartments, and were, presumably, absent when th..
nd apart from the understandable anger at the failure of intelligence agencies, government and law enforcement to anticipate an attack of this scale, calls have been made for stricter laws, restriction of rights, and for an "appropriate" and hostile respo..
When I went off to sleep yesterday night, I went with a hope that things will be under controlled this morning. I was to be proven wrong. There is no need for me to talk about the operations that are going on here. Our over enthusiastic media is already d..
This looks like an international issue. They have aimed at foreigners. They are extremely well trained. Let me add, this is not a bunch of home grown misguided violent youth, like in the 2001 Parliament attack, this is worse than both a war and a terror a..
The images of people with haunted eyes, blood soaked streets; the images of places we love, places we go to - burning, flicker behind my eyes even as I try to nap. And I worry, worry, worry..
First things first. This is out and out a fidayeen attack involving terrorists acting in the name of radical Islam. Why can't it be radical Hindutva extremists, one would ask, considering that ATS chief Hemant Karkare was killed, barely a few days after..
The brat was asleep when I left home for work this morning. I hadnt sent him into school again today. He slept, with the carefree abandon that comes from being a child. Unsullied by fear, worry and a sickening gut wrenching helplessness. I kissed his fore..
Terrorists in VT station. I mean, imagine, you are buying tickets and some mad caps start firing randomly. WTF do u do?..
I dont know what to feel or think. To know where its happening. Areas I cross almost everyday. To think of the Taj which I had seen atop the ferry on Saturday and sighed at the beauty. Thinking it was any day a better sight than Gateway of India. Watching..
Another dark day in Mumbai's Book... Some how the date 26th has not worked out well for India. Be it earthquakes, floods or terrorist activities... It scares my heart to imagine that I've been to most of these places..
"It's the day after - and the trains are still crowded - damn, the spirit of Mumbai is unbreakable" Is a SMS I get from a friend stuck in his office..
First we heard they have received an email from Deccan Mujaheddin, now it is Lashkar ai taiba, who came in a boat from Karachi. Whoever it is, this looks more more like war..
