    I honestly don't know. They could be trained in Tibet for all I know, and it wouldn't matter in the slightest to me, other than to say, rub them out.

    Turning mountains into glass probably won't do the trick. Mubarak's claim of Iraq creating 100 bin Ladens isn't all that far off, remember.

    Ehh, when 100 people who had nothing to do with the Mumbai attacks get killed, we can set up a call center -- just like India! -- and you can call their families to let them know why they had to die.

    Go ahead, practice your speech here. So far, we got:

    "You can't worry about nice and neat and squeaky clean."
    and
    "That's the Chicago way!"

    Geez, Mark, maybe think this one through a little. Not every problem can be solved by bombing brown folks back to the Stone Age, you know. ::)

    They just don't value human life like we do. They'll sacrifice civilians to achieve strategic political objectives.

    Exactly. Which is why while military action must be taken to respond to specific threats, there is no military solution to this problem and never will be.

    This is a cultural problem. This is a communication problem. This is an intolerance problem. This is an intelligence and security problem.

    The military -- or the threat of force -- can only make some solutions more effective. But if a military response is our immediate reaction to any terrorist threat, we're never going to make any progress in this unwinnable war. We have to evolve from that way of thinking.

    Mubarak better pipe down. His decision to jail Islamic terrorists had more to do with creating Al Queda than anything the US has done.

    Commandos have stormed the Jewish community center in Mumbai where terrorists took hostages. Bodies of five hostages and two gunmen were found inside. Overall, nine terrorists have been killed, one arrested and as many as six more are believed to be in the Taj Majal hotel at last report. The director of India's elite National Security Guard commando unit said the nearby Oberoi hotel is under his men's control.

    If they're Hindu's, not in the mountains of Pakistan, that's for damn sure.

    Agreed. And no matter what, India's going to blame Pakistan, so those accusations have to be taken with a grain of salt anyways.

    Forget Muslims, Hindu, Kashmiri's, etc., it's those damn Thugee's!

    It's still showing LIVE, but apparently they are having to cease the live video coverage due to media laws in India.

    Edit: Scratch that. The live video feed is gone now.
