Mumbai: At least 15 people have been injured in gunfights between two groups in at least three places in Mumbai on Thursday night.

Details are sketchy but it is believed that two gangs fired at each other at outside CST Railway Terminus, Hotel Oberoi and the popular Café Leopold restaurant in Mumbai.

The first shooting took place near the CST police station

Even old New York was once New Amsterdam Why they changed it I can't say People just liked it better that way

I just can't picture Frank Sinatra singing......."New Amsterdam, New Amsterdam!...."

And there might have been other units that he didn't know about; that might explain how 10 different places in Mumbai were attacked at about the same time.

There might even be some more out there waiting.

Scary thought but that’s about all that makes any sense.

“Al-Qaeda ‘hijack’ led to Mumbai attack”
By Syed Saleem Shahzad

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “MILAN - A plan by Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) that had been in the pipelines for several months - even though official policy was to ditch it - saw what was to be a low-profile attack in Kashmir turn into the massive attacks on Mumbai last week.

The original plan was highjacked by the Laskar-e-Taiba (LET), a Pakistani militant group that generally focussed on the Kashmir struggle, and al-Qaeda, resulting in the deaths of nearly 200 people in Mumbai as groups of militants sprayed bullets and hand grenades at hotels, restaurants and train stations, as well as a Jewish community center.”

“Holtzbergs will be laid to rest Tuesday”

SNIPPET: “IAF aircraft carrying bodies of six murdered at Chabad center in Mumbai lands in Israel. Tens of thousands expected at funeral procession for Rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg and wife Rivka. ‘Every Chabadnik in Israel is going to be there, every Chabadnik feels a genuine sense of loss here,’ says official from ultra-Orthodox movement”

Tal Rabinovsky and Ronen Medzini
Published: 12.02.08, 00:23 / Israel News

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “The Israeli Air Force aircraft transporting the remains of those killed at the Chabad center in Mumbai touched down at Ben-Gurion Airport late Monday evening.

A brief memorial service will be held at the airport, and representatives of the bereaved families will be present. The bodies will then be taken to the Abu Kabir Forensic Institute, for the necessary pre-burial preparations.

Ministers Eli Yishai, Yitzhak Cohen and Jacob Edery are also to attend the ceremony, as will MK Yakov Litzman and Rabbi Yakov Aryeh Alter, head of the Ger Hasidic dynasty. The attendance of the Ger rabbi at such an event is extremely rare.”
