Mumbai: Acting swiftly and decisively, Indian commandos launched a clinical operation on Saturday to eliminate two militants holed up in the iconic Taj hotel in Mumbai to end a 59-hour terror drama, the country's longest, which claimed 148 lives and soured ties with Pakistan.

The militants had attempted to create a diversion by torching two ground floor shops in the hotel's northern wing, hoping the thick black smoke would conceal their movements but this didn't work as the security forces required just over 20 minutes to eliminate them.

"The operation is over," an extremely pleased Mumbai Police Commissioner Hasan Gafoor told reporters at the hotel, even as cleanup operations were underway.

When they say the can’t understand why anyone murders in the name of Islam, you can point out the suras from the Koran that tell them to kill infidels. You can also point out the action agains the Qurayshi Jewish tribe in Mecca when they were slaughtered by the prophet.

"So, what did the President say?"

Yesterday November 28,2008

"“Laura and I are deeply saddened that at least two Americans were killed and others injured in Wednesday’s horrific attack in Mumbai. We also mourn the great loss of life suffered by so many people from several other countries, and we have the wounded in our thoughts and prayers.

“My Administration has been working with the Indian government and the international community as Indian authorities work to ensure the safety of those still under threat. We will continue to cooperate against these extremists who offer nothing but violence and hopelessness.“

[Mila]

Here’s the link to the President’s statement included in my above post.

Methinks your analysis of the state of the world post Bush is very accurate, keep your powder dry.

[backhoe]

...This is just the beginning, as soon as bho is sworn in, expect these kind of attacks and worse, here in the USA...

Yep--I tried to wake this country up to the threat militant Islam poses to America, Israel, and everything the West hold dear, for years & years:

If we aren't all rounded up and re-educated at

Camp Obama

it should provide endless opportunities to hector, catcall, and kibitz from the sidelines.

I hope all the MoonBats really, really enjoy having Duh!1© ( AKA, The New Little Big Fraud©... ) at the helm. It's going to be quite a ride...

This guy really is Bad News.
Not to mention his gullible, self-deluded camp followers:

Preview of Anti-Obama Documentary Outrages Left

John Ziegler didn’t know the kind of fury the left would unleash on him when he unveiled his web video “How Obama Got Elected.”

See his website and video here.

“The Zogby results were incredible and they were credible and the vast majority of enws media ignored it because it was their own malfeasance that created a massive amount of ignorance,”

See poll results here.

As I have mentioned here:

OBAMAO ... is America ready for a Marxist president? [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ]

Nope, but we are about to get one, good & hard...

...so chroniclers like Yours Truly will be documenting every move he makes, every breath he takes... unless, or until, we are silenced by all that "tolerance & inclusiveness" he & his followers are already practicing.... ( "we in charge now" )

I'll keep doing it as long as there's something to say- or until we really are silenced.

As far as I am able, I will mirror this on our Canadian sister site, which has been moved to Panama due to censorship issues:

Yeah, so what? The Muslims who are supposedly ‘moderate’ are doing nothing to stop the radicals.

do you really believe they couldn’t work against Muslim terrorism?

[nobama08]

I don’t ever believe or trust Muslims. I haven’t since 9/11. Prior to then, I never gave them any thought. Just reading Daniel Pipes has taught me enough. Islam offers nothing but death and destruction.

[csmusaret]

It took 59 hours to eliminate 15-20 gunmen? The after action report in this is going to be brutal.

[HollyB]

It is the radical believers of this religion who are involved in terrorism. There are radical elements to other ideologies where members behave as terrorists as well. I know Muslims, and the ones I know are very peaceful people.

[gost2]

****I know Muslims, and the ones I know are very peaceful people.****

Sucker.

That’s like saying, “I know cobras and the ones I know would never bite anyone.” The cult is a religion of death. They worship it. They evangelize it. The only peaceful muslim is an apostate muslim. One of their kids actually reads the book and BAM .... he’s a psycho murderer.

[dools007]

Remember, many Muslims believe martyrdom is their ticket to heaven, Allah and the virgins. So, it probably wasn’t hard to convince these stateless and unemployed idiots to attack anything—particularly people they believe to be Satanic.

That said, the attack was probably aided and abetted by Pakistani elements simply to cause problems in India. They attacked a tourist mecca—pardon the term—so they were, in effect, attacking India’s economy. Paki elements simply used these people to do their bidding. Whether Al Queda was directly or indirectly involved remains to be seen. However, Al Queda—and similar ilk—have created this toxic reservoir of mindless fundamentalist Muslim assassins who are available to anyone wanting to attack anything.

Frankly I was a bit surprised The Muslim Marxist Onada did not first offer to speak with the terrorists before offering to aid (whatever that means) India in its fight against them.

Someone on this thread asked what, if anything, Bush had said about the attacks. I have seen no public statement by him. Very odd. But, then, his second term has been nothing if not odd.

[HollyB]

I’ve never been evangelized to by a Muslim. Could it be that not all Muslims practice extremism? You’re lumping them all into one category.

[Palladin]

You tried hard. So did many FReepers.

Now all we can say is “Lock and Load”.

[Palladin]

Cobras and pitbulls.

From what I understand, Islam is actually based off Christianity. They view Muhammad as the last of a long line of prophets, including Jesus. As the New Testament is a correction of the Old Testament, the Koran is a correction of the New Testament.

Thoughout history, Islam has sided with Jews, sided with Christians in conflict. At the pinnacle of power, Islamic leaders were considered enlightened inviting Christian and Jewish scholars to debate their points of view.

They viewed Christians and Jews “people of the book.” Although Christians and Jews may have strayed, they are still considered brothers in faith.

I believe the radicalism you see today, is a direct result of their leaders, using the humiliation of the post WWI era, to control their people. Religion has been used throughout history to control populations.

You see it in Saudi Arabia where the shieks keep their impoverished population simmering with hatred for the West while they enjoy a life of luxury. Yassir Arafat would have been considered one of the 10 most richest heads of state while his people suffer from 60% unemployment.

Sadly, you see a glimpse of it happening in the United States where Jeremiah Wright can preach hatred for white America while he lives in a $2M country club house in a white neighborhood.

The reality of today, is that Islam is a useful tool to mobilize the population. Religious zealotry is the only force powerful enough for a technologically backward civilization to become a threat to the West. While the West tries to “understand” the zealotry ascribing it to foreign policy blunders, and a lack of empathy and tolerance; we have a real long-term problem those same religious zealots climbing into govt power trying to obtain nuclear technology.

The long-term solution, is freedom. Free nations do not war against each other. Hopefully, Iraq is the first step towards Islam’s reformation. Christianity had its reformation, and Islam must have its reformation as well if the West is to survive another 100 years.

[hoosiermama]

More than likely BO didn’t “say” anything near what the release says. Some speech writer came up with “appropriate message” and sends it out in his name, while he’s thinking: “Golly gee whiz bang, this sure isn’t what I signed up for....Where’s all the love and peace?...I’ll just have a little talk with both sides, see what the victems said and did to cause folks to shoot them and then we can all sing, group hug and love one another....

[Deo volente]

That's right. Islam is an aggressive death cult disguised as a religion, and it's father is the Devil. From its very beginnings in the 7th century, it has spread destruction and misery, and has been successfully pushed back by the West time and again.

It is once more on the march, and very difficult to contain, given our politically correct assumptions about religion and “rights”. The only way to stop it is to eradicate it wherever it exists.

The “peace of Islam” is hell on Earth.

[Lent]

Yes indeed. We see this wherever Islamic believers begin to have a presence. They Jihad for Sharia - whether in Europe or Africa, or India, etc. Islamic belief is a disease of the mind. Should be entered in the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) as such. It fosters strife, rage, suicidal behavior, murderous ideations, because of the inseparability of state and religious belief and its sick theology.

[Enchante]

Welcome back!!

I think you are right b/c the various terrorist groups and their sponsors will want to test Obambi, and he will not be up to the challenge. The only hope will be that people around him might grasp, looking at it all through a partisan political lens, that if the Demagogues are associated with more big retreats and disasters that will Carter-ize their image for another generation.

[tpanther]

Golly gee whiz bang, this sure isn’t what I signed up for....Where’s all the love and peace?...

Yup!

We need to collectively come up with a catch phrase every time that sometiing happens in the world on the messiah’s watch.

We were repeatedly insulted with “repair our standing in the world”, so relentlessly we need to remind the world just how miserable a job zero is doing as well as remind everyone how ridiculous it was to suggest with the messiah everything would somehow be sunshine and lollipops.

It’s time to reclaim the lexicon.

The messiah complex. The zero effect. Zero-effort...?

The fraud exploited that BS from the start, so he should understand chickens DO come home to roost.

Remember it was always Bush’s fault for everything? Who could forget right?

If an eskimo in Greenland catches a cold and so much as sneezes on Jan. 20th I want the messiah to know about it.

To the point the drive-by enablers can’t ignore it.

We have Rick-rolling, (new one to me) jump the shark, etc.

We need one for the zero that laughs in the face of his supporters and the media when things go wrong in the world when they promised pretty much none of these things would happen on his watch.

Sunshine and lollipops.

I guess the memo didn’t make it to India.
