BOMBAY, India - Eight bombs exploded in first-class compartments of packed Bombay commuter trains Tuesday, killing 147 people and wounding hundreds in a well-coordinated terror attack on the heart of a city that embodies India's global ambitions.
Suspicion quickly fell on Kashmiri militants who have repeatedly carried out nearly simultaneous explosions in attacks on Indian cities, including bombings last year at three markets in New Delhi.
Pakistan, India's rival over the disputed territory of Kashmir, quickly condemned Tuesday's bombings. Even so, India alleges that Pakistan supports the Muslim militants, and analysts said a Kashmiri link to the blasts could slow — or perhaps even derail — a peace process that has gained momentum between the nuclear rivals over the past several years.
Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh said "terrorists" were behind the attacks, which he called...
If our media is state run, I would sure like to know what state it is that runs them. Its been my observation that they miss no opportunity to show our government in a bad light.
As for the article, lets see, there are so many different groups that bomb innocent civilians the world over. You think it may possibly be connected to Islamic terror? Naa, the Indian government did it so they could spoil the peace talks with Pakistan!
Have you seen the "satanic vaccine" and "9/11 was an inside job" posts? Those are examples. If one disagrees with them, one receives all sorts of personal abuse, instead of sober argumentation.
Dee, I made no such deduction. Suggesting culprits & causes in such things is not wrong - you do it yourself (as in calling our media "state-run"). Fanatic conspiracy-theorists do more than speculate like this, their claims are promoted with total intolerance for objectors.
So if an "opinion" regarding some event is declared by American non-state-run media, which is then supported by a foreign source, there's no conspiracy theory and name-calling?
Neil, I didn't see anything about the blasts in [Bombay] being blamed on anyone, as of yet in that newspaper. It probably was an Islamic group, however.

Considering how the American and British government do respond, it probably won't amount to anything,
