MUMBAI, India — DEVELOPING: Gunmen targeted luxury hotels, a popular tourist attraction and a crowded train station in at least seven attacks in India's financial capital Thursday, wounding 25 people, police and witnesses said.

It was not clear how many of those were dead or injured, but Indian television stations are reproting at least 20 dead, while Reuters puts the number at 10.

A.N Roy police commissioner of Maharashtra state, of which Mumbai is the capital, said several people had been wounded in the attacks and police were battling the gunmen.

"The terrorists have used automatic weapons and in some places grenades have been lobbed," said Roy.

Some of the gunmen are still holed up in buildings, a police official told Reuters.

Two eyewitnesses told Sky News through mobile devises the gunmen were going after westerners.

"We were asked if there were any British or Americans," they said.

When I read in post number 5 that this story had been already posted I wrote the Mod and requested that this thread be deleted.

As you can see it's still here and open.

I guess it’s safe to assume it’s the Islamic animals again?

No! I am sure it is the Quakers again. /s

In July of 2007, Barack Obama was asked by a video questioner: “Would you be willing to meet separately, without precondition, during the first year of your administration, in Washington or anywhere else, with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea?…..”

“I would,” he answered.

“Mark my words…It will not be six months before the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy…Remember I said it standing here if you don’t remember anything else I said. Watch, we’re gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy.”
