I have an exam tomorrow morning but just now at 12 in the night news is coming in that Bombay is under a terrorist attack.

Serial blasts are occuring throughout the city. The bombs were placed in cabs all over the city and news of more blasts is still coming in.. its live on tv.

Along with blasts, terrorists are carrying out indiscriminate firing across the city. Many people have died but the toll is still rising. The terrorists are hidden in five star hotels across the city and carrying out firings there. The latest is that they are planning out a commando operation but as of now.. blasts are still going on.

Last month there were blasts in Delhi.. tonight in Mumbai.. Mumbai is on high alert.

I don't what I'm gonna write in the paper tomorrow.. or even if I will have the exam tomorrow.. looks like Mumbai might be shut tomorrow.

I'm just.. too disturbed to study right now. I don't why innocent people have to die at the hands of some fundamentalists. This is so wrong.

God give peace to the ones that lose their life tonight.. and I hope the number doesn't get very high.

I just wish I didn't have to worry about mine and my family's lives everytime I step out.

 
 
update: 8 blasts so far.. 25 firings.. 100 people dead.. 250 injusred.. people have been taken hostage by terrorists in a five star hotel.. Mumbai top cops have been killed.. the army called in.

    I have never understood the "logic" of killing the innocent to effect political change.  It certainly is cowardly.  Please be safe.

    Diabolic.....you made me remember the kind of life we had been forced to live in Italy for almost 10 years during the so called " Lead years" ...when several terroristic groups started a bloody war against the then governments and their political allies killing specific targets or indiscriminate innocent people and bombing in many cities...
     
     
    I myslef had to evacuate several buildings in those times (my college, the train station, a movie theater and so on) because of their attacks.
     
    Life goes on but its tough living under this umbrella of unsafety and uncertainity.

    fraggle: Thanks.. its just crazy.. I don't get it at all! I wish this stuff would just stop!
     
    ginger: Just when I forget about it and go about my merry way, another attack happens somewhere and again I'm reminded of how unsafe I really am! Life goes on I guess.. as long as you're not one the unfortunate ones that get victimised.

    Hi DD - I am sorry that you feel the way that you do,and I wish there was something that i could say to make you feel better.Down south in this part of the world,I think they invented political unrest.
    I was brought up in Northern Ireland in the 70's and early 80's til I moved here.
    You get it every where you go - you cant get away from it.Its a meaning less powerstruggle of sorts that actually solves nothing
  • diabolicdame said on Nov 26, 2008....
    cj.. exactly.. it solves nothing!! Theres not even such a political problem going on here.. nothing.. it seems these people just want to kill, thats all. They just want to create terror and fear amongst poeple. and for what?! I don't even know! I'm so distressed by this!!

    DD, I'm so sorry to read this. As soon as I did, I turned on the news and saw live pictures.  It's just horrible to have to worry for your life and your loved ones' lives every day.  I also heard about a plot to launch attacks on the New York subway system. The world is a terribly frightening place these days.
  • diabolicdame said on Nov 26, 2008....
    Twyla.. it is terribly frieghtening! I hope no more such attacks happen in New york or anywhere.. I'm still watching the news and hoping it comes to an end soon here!
  • Lucytorial said on Nov 26, 2008....

  • diabolicdame said on Nov 26, 2008....
    Hey Luce.. I'm safe and away from the places where its happening.
  • queenparanoia said on Nov 26, 2008....
    i pray that you'll be safe... this is really scary and you know i understand what you feel... why does the innocent have to die.. this is just...  i cant explain it myself...
