Thoughts on Mumbai Attacks

Reports of  Mumbai flowed to my radio as I traversed the rural midwest for the holiday. The recurring topic was the nationality of the attackers. My first thought was “are these guys really Pakistani?” They seem to be well-trained, if only because the amount of carnage from ten people showed a great deal of lethally-efficient planning.

That, alone, is certainly no indication of nationality. Fanning the nuclear-powered tensions certainly fuels chaos. “If this is part of the intention”, the second thought, “Do these guys have a cause?” The BBC suggests that this may be more like the events of Columbine or Va Tech, without a cause other than celebrity. I continue to pour over reports and photos looking for answers, dots to connect met with only more dots and fewer lines. Anyone else care to share their reaction?
