7 Train Bombings in India Kill Up to 100

BOMBAY, India — Seven bombs hit Bombay's commuter rail network during rush hour Tuesday evening, killing as many as 100 people and wounding more than 300 in what authorities called a well-coordinated attack.

India's major cities were put on high alert after the blasts, and Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh called an emergency Cabinet meeting.

Chaos engulfed the crowded rail network in India's financial capital following the blasts that ripped apart train compartments as authorities struggled to treat the wounded amid heavy monsoon downpours. Doors and windows were blown off the train cars, and luggage and debris were strewn across the tracks.

Police Chief A.N. Roy said on Indian television that an estimated 100 people were killed and more than 250 were wounded.

"We are busy in the rescue operation. Our first priority is to rescue the injured people," he said.

There was no immediate claim of responsibility in the bombings, which came in quick succession _ a common tactic employed by Kashmiri militants that have repeatedly targeted India's cities.

A senior Bombay police official, P.S. Pasricha, said the explosions were part of a well-coordinated attack. Vilasrao Deshmukh, the chief minister of Maharashtra state, where Bombay is located, said bombs had caused all seven blasts.

Indian Home Minister Shivraj Patil told reporters that authorities had had some information that an attack was coming, "but place and time was not known."

It seems to me that if Indian Prime Minister Manmohan "W" Singh had not provoked the "militants" by sending troops to Iraq, this would have never happened....

American voters, vote Democrat Party this November, then you too will be slaughtered like animals by human Muslim terrorists that the Democrat "Traitor/Treason Party so eagerly enables, supports, aids and abets!!! On the other hand, if you've got one ounce of smarts, you help totally destroy the Democrat Party scum and vermin on Election Day 2006!!!

I say we destroy all their hopes of getting elected 2 months before election day. It will make for very entertaining television.
