India’s 9/11
It was with horror we saw the live pictures of the havoc
in Mumbai last night. The same dreaded feeling of loss
and confusion as did on Sept 11 in America.
One cannot help feeling the lapse in security. How can boatfuls of suspected terrorists cross the seas from Karachi
to Mumbai without anyone knowing it? We do not have to look far to see who did this damage in India. The Al-Queida
is active in India. The congratulatory emails also have
a distinct Bin Laden men like tone. Why has it taken more than 24 hrs to end the seige in the Taj Hotel in Mumbai
All that the cops had to do is storm the rooms where
the terrorists were hiding. This is what the Russians did when they got rid of the Chechnyan rogues in a movie theater
there.Our sympathies to the families who lost their
loved ones in the attacks. America now has the best
homeland security. India should take a leaf from its
books to protect its people. Three of the country’s top
police officials are no more. We salute them for their
bravery in the call of duty.
