India suffers massive terror attack: nearly one hundred civilians dead, hundreds wounded, some hostages. Its been going on for six hours, and its not over yet. Nine coordinated attacks on hotels, and other public places including a children’s hospital using AK-s and grenades, not a suicide attack- no explosive vests etc. Extensive planning would have been required. Its a horrible, bloody, disgusting act. These jihaddis are extremely tyrannical, cold and imperialistic, and believe they have the right to kill anyone in order to impose their twisted world view on the world. Hopefully this is not the “sign” referenced in the al-Quds article. I didnt realize at the time the Nov. 09 statement (via a Yemeni former top AQ) came out that Al-Quds Al-Arabi is where Bin Laden chose to publish his original fatwa in 1996: “Declaration of War against the Americans Occupying the Land of the Two Holy Places.”

FWIW, last year we reported Yemen based al-Qaeda possibly forging ties with jihaddists in Mumbai. 2007: DNA India MUMBAI: A recent intelligence assessment warned of a strong likelihood of Yemen-based terrorists infiltrating into Mumbai and Delhi. Security agencies are trying to figure out if a section of local Jehadis has managed to forge “ties” with operatives of senior Al Qaeda leaders in Yemen. Then there’s those missing students from a variety of countries including Yemen.
