The body count was aimed at the west.
The western hostages were herded upstairs and the fire broke out fully involved, end to end, as soon as the Indians moved in.
Dental records won’t be much help here, but when the missing are tallied....India’s liable to have...a lot of support.
I wonder if the timing is so as to have American and Jewish hostages to slaughter on world-TV during the Thanksgiving holiday tomorrow.
