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

CNN-IBN is reporting these bastards have attacked TWO HOSPITALS

If I posted what I said just now, I would be banned for eternity!

[Dog]

That one with the blue in his shirt is the same guy.

There is our first gunman.

The second looks asian. I bet they are type 56 AK 47’s from China.

Happy Thanksgiving to you too!

Are we really going to hear that it was an “inside job” akin to the Twin Towers? OMG....

[Palladin]

What are MEP’s, please?

Remember, talk is cheap, no matter who is talking.

Watch the heavy metal to gauge intentions.

Eyewitness reporting on iDesiTV that militants have seized 5-10 Jewish families as hostages at Nariman House. At Taj, new firing heard.

[StolarStorm]

And that makes sense. Rather than the knee jerk reaction to blame Pakistan, I think we need to be looking toward China as a primary backer (assuming that there even is one).

Pakistan is up to its eyeballs in problems. There aren't going to risk something like this right now.

"There is no terrorist threat.

You need to calm down, relax, listen very carefully, and repeat after me:

There is no terrorist threat.

There is no terrorist threat!

There... is... no... terrorist... threat!"

"Should such an ignorant people lead the world?"

"They are possibly the dumbest people on the planet... in thrall to conniving, thieving, smug pricks. We Americans suffer from an enforced ignorance... "

Getting reports of up to 19 different aimpoints.

If true that raises your estimate by a factor of ten.

Big log trail on an op that size.

Nobody follows those better than NSA.

This old planet is about to get HOT, and combined with everything else going on right now, caps may not be big enough to describe HOT.

Since HUJI and some of the other groups operate out of Bangladesh this could be the beginning of an international incident.

[jimbo123]

This was Al Qaeda/ISI operating out of Pakistan. And they imported the attackers from the SE Asia for this operation.

The last AK attack up there was reported to be carried out with type 56 kalisnakovs.

I dont know that ,that involves china but it certainly would be easier to smuggle arms via Andhra Pradesh rather than Pakistan via Kashmir

[thecabal]

IBN had some live footage from the Taj Hotel that supposedly showed a terrorist up in a window. I don’t know how they would know that, since it looked like the guy was on a cell phone. Regardless, it would seem that the Indian forces are not in control of the situation yet.

[jeffers]

Yup, an unfriendly act, to say the least.
