Terrorist Attack In Mumbai-India?

Terrorist Attack At The Taj Hotel In India!
Yes, as of now the Taj Hotel in Mumbai India is on fire. This historical and Ornate designed hotel house several tourists, mostly western countries. According to CNN, 78 people have been killed as reported so far. There was several attacks around the city.
At the moment, the identities of these terrorists are not known, neither are their affiliations (if any).
Could this be a vendetta for the American aerial Drone attacks on Pakistan borders, and the Taliban Mujahadeen are responding as they promised?
We may never know, but these kinds of attacks happen every day in India and Pakistan to a greater or lesser degree. Sometimes against the Indian or Pakistani governments. And sometimes to make a public statement about the Taliban's Jihadist agenda.

Update On Terror Attack In India!
Someone on MSNBC tonight was wondering if these attacks in Mumbai-India was initiated by El Qaeda elements. Because according to him, El Qaeda usually use more sophisticated types of bombs to do it's work.
These being suicide bombers, large amounts of explosives, etc.
But these attacks were very simply inflicted upon these victims.
What this commentator failed to realize is that when you have large volumes of people concentrated in one place, like a city of 19 million citizens like Mumbai, or a stadium, a cinema, or a circus. Then getting the biggest bang for your efforts will be very enticing indeed.

So whenever I hear such nonsense from those who claim to know the terrorist mindset.
I merely wince in embarrassment and pity!

Local Media Should Allow Some Time Before Requesting Specifics!
The local CNN and MSNBC and other media seem impatient with how the terrorist scenario is being conducted in Mumbai-India currently.
What these people fail to realize are the following:
* This is an ongoing crime scenario:
* The security forces (including Swat teams) are also involved here, and are conducting their maneuvers to trap, kill, or capture these terrorists at all locations involved:
* If the media continues to ask for specifics from their reporters on the ground, then the terrorists will be able to understand what and how much security muscle they are up against. And will probably change tactics as this information keeps coming through the media.
* The terrorists may also be watching these reports as they unfold too:
So I would hope that some reason and commonsense be considered by the local, national, and international media, when asking reporters on the ground in Mumbai-India for specifics.
