Nobody has claimed responsibility for the attacks.

Pakistan is brushing off India's demand to reign in the terrorists operating from Pakistan.

The United Nations Security Council is urging all member nations to support India.

As usual, Musharraf, is looking like the inept puppet that he is.

"But officials said earlier on Thursday that the prime suspect in Tuesday's bombings is Lashkar-e-Taiba, a Pakistan-based Islamic terrorist group that operates in Jammu and Kashmir

"Different indicators are there which hint at their involvement," said DK Shankaran, the top bureaucrat of Maharashtra. He refused to elaborate.

"The probe into blasts is on track and we should have something substantial soon," he said in a telephone interview.

Lashkar has in the past employed near-simultaneous explosions to hit cities, including an attack in New Delhi in October 2005 that killed more than 60 people. Lashkar was also named in an audacious attack on India's Parliament in 2001.

A spokesman for Lashkar, Abdullah Ghaznavi, has denied the group was involved in the serial train bombings across Bombay that left at least 200 people dead and more than 700 injured.

Also on Thursday, a man claiming to represent al-Qaida reportedly claimed that the terror network had set up a wing in Kashmir."

The Indian cops are good. They will have it nailed within a week, IMO.

Have you seen any reports of any groups having claimed responsibility, dianavan?

...and here is the best explanation of why I think Pervez Musharraf is such a sleazeball:

http://www.newyorker.com/fact/content/?040308fa_fact

So, who do you think is responsible for the terrorist bombing in India Its actually Muslim Fundamentalists but I am dismayed at the willingness of the U.S. to overlook the significance of Musharraf's pardon. Such a deal!

Iran is being armed by Pakistan in trade for giving permission to the U.S. military to hunt for terrorists in Pakistan. Such a deal. Iran is now armed and we still don't have bin Laden.

Does this make sense or am I trying to oversimply the situation?

Pervez Musharraf should be held accountable for this and for the terrorists hiding in Pakistan. It is Pervez Musharraf, who is behind the attempt to make Kashmir part of Pakistan.

This is another case of the U.S. installing a puppet that is no longer a true ally. If Musharraf were truly an American ally, Al quaeda and other terrorists would not find a safe haven in Pakistan. Pakistan also has a very long history of denying women human rights. So why is Musharraf considered an ally?

I admit to not knowing much about this region's history but why is Mucharraf considered an ally when it is obvious he promotes terrorism?

But the fact that most people think it was a Muslim who killed Gandhi is proof enough of the racist and potentially genocidal policies of the governments of the West with regard to Muslims, and the complicit Western media.

Was it not enough that a muslim killed Ghandi?

Godse (killer of Ghandi) was a Hindu who believed that Ghandi had sold out the Hindus by agreeing to partition.

Was it not enough that a muslim killed Ghandi?
Was it not enough that seperatist muslims got their own country of Pakistan?


I would like to show you my painting of Kashmir and associated political poem that I feel sums up the situation.

I'm not sure that 'credit' is the right word for this.

Al-Queda is now calling for jihad in India, by all Indian Moslems.

At least 163 have died according to some latest figures at Google news. It's not good, but I hope the shrub doesn't use it for more fear-mongering ammo.

Kashmir is mainly Muslim. There are militants who want automony for the region or that it be merged with Pakistan. Of course, if it were, other militants would want the opposite. Another of those ongoing struggles with no end in sight.

Of course, that depends on whether or not Kashmiri militants were involved at all. No one has claimed credit for the slaughter.

Horrible news. India has such a long history of murder on the railway. This modern manifestation is even more gruesome.

147 dead; 439 injured.

So far no one has claimed credit for coordinating the explosion of bombs on eight different trains.
Trite and almost meaningless - my heart goes out to the dead, the injured, and their families.
