Can terrorism ever stop? What happened in Mumbai is terrible and should not happen ever again. Now digging deeper, it is evident that there was enough warning to Indian security agencies and there may even be details pointing to the location. Why were there no security measures? It is true that there are definitely a few guilty folks within India but that is a shame. Hearing about the plan to kill thousands and ending up with a dead toll of about a couple of hundred, I wonder if the terrorists groups are mourning a partial victory and the fear that they might come to the lime light with all the international attention.
I do not know if this is to do with religion but if it is I am sure these folks have read their religion wrong. Most of the well known terrorist groups should be demolished taking this as an opportunity. How many of my friends outside India know about the challenges of living in Mumbai? Bollywood is world famous for the great movies, actors, glamour, etc. But amidst all that, there is a great challenge for most of those artists to live by the rules of the underworld dons. If bollywood with all the popularity, strength and wealth couldn't fight against the underworld, what can the others do? Security agencies there have not been able to catch these folks that are very well known to cause these activities. It is for sure that the support that these guys get must be broken.
Taj or Oberoi could have done better. I was amazed at the security measures at Chennai's Marriott hotel recently. Every vehicle entering was stopped and sniffed by dogs, checked by security personnel and people let in thro' metal detectors.
Now let's wait for the world leaders to go after the terrorist groups and bring them to justice!
Life goes on......
