No way would I bet on it but I would say this bombing was done by Hindu extremists. Hindus are the only people on the planet to dish it back to the Islamics the way it should be. Via riots, arson, religious incitement. They even demolished a big ol' mosque in Ayodhya and traded riots with Islamics. Of course this mosque was built on a ruined Hindu temple.

Syed Shahabuddin, JNU historians, and selfstyled 'secular' scholars and leaders are hotly contesting that the existence and demolition of such a temple is a myth floated by the British in pursuance of their policy of 'divide and rule'. Syed Shahabuddin and many Muslim divines go a step further and assert that neither Babar nor any other Muslim for that matter would take into his head to erect a mosque by displacing a temple, for, they argue, such a mosque would not be a mosque in the eyes of the Shari'ah and would be liable to demolition by the Muslims themselves."

It means the Moslems, not the Jews, should be the ones to blow up the Dome of the Rock ....

Having read a bit about the history of Muslim occupation of India, a marge proportion of the mosques, temples and mausoleums supposedly built by Muslims were in fact Hindu temples, palaces or forts either razed, desecrated or just taken over and turned into Muslim use, and then the Muslims claimed that they had built them.
Interestingly, there is much evidence that Shah Jahan did not build the Taj Mahal, that it was a Hundu temple complex that he "took". Muslims used to enslave Hindu builders, artisans and such and take them to other countries to build for them, since their own skill and knowledge of building was less advanced.

I agree with you about the Hindu/Muslim confrontations. Of course, there is always the chance that the Islamic extremist element is wanting to stir things up for one reason or another by bombing its own Mosque and blaming the Hindus.....After all, Jihad ain't Jihad if you're not killing anyone.
