Anyone actually claim "credit" for this yet? Seems strange to set up something so evil to terrorize people and then not say you did it.

Simulaneous strikes, soft target, planned to maximize civilian casualties. This has got Osama's fingerprints all over it.Comment

First off, my condolences to the people affected by this attack. I hope Aseem (sp?) is okay. Does he live in Mumbai.
As for who did the bombings, the attackers might be muslim, sikh, separatists from northeast Indian states, Kashmiri rebels, and so on. Best to wait and see before assigning blame.Golfing since 67Comment

It's definitely not the Sikhs - that insurgency is over. It's not the Northeastern rebels (ULFA) either, this was way too sophisticated and they don't attack targets outside the Northeast.Originally posted by Tingkai

Besides the bombs probably will escalate things, Mumbai will be hell for a long time - 6 mill daily commuters that has to find other ways to get around.With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

The death total is 160 now, with more than 400 wounded.
My heart goes out to the people of India and Mumbai. I hope that they can avoid escalating into an even greater cataclysm.
