MUMBAI ... GEE, I THOUGHT ELECTING OBAMA WOULD FIX ALL OF THIS

Unless you spent the weekend in a six-pack or you don't watch anything except Entertainment Tonight or Sabado Gigante, Muslim terrorists were at it again last week.  The Muslims went to Mumbai (f/k/a Bombay) India and managed to murder perhaps as many as 300 people.  Eyewitnesses say the Muslims were specifically targeting American, British and Jewish travelers (i.e. whites) in those luxury hotels.  Typically, the media simply referred to the killers as "terrorists" throughout the siege.  Sorry, but "terrorist" is only half a word.  Until experience and reality teaches us differently, the first half of that word is either "Islamic" or "Muslim."

Apparently there were ten Muslims involved in this attack.  One has been captured.  His name is Azam Amir Kasab.  He's 21-years-old.  He's from Pakistan.  Who knows how many he killed - but when he was captured he started pleading for his own life.  He says that these attacks had been planned for months.  All of the men involved were trained in marine warfare.  Their main objective was to "target whites, preferably Americans and British."  Spare the Muslims.  There are accounts of hostages who had to prove to the terrorists that they were Muslim by reciting passages from the Koran or dropping their pants to see whether or not they were circumcised. 

This is our reminder that Islamic radicals are still out there, still capable of mounting sophisticated attacks, and still desirous of killing as many Americans as they possibly can. 

I do have a question though.  I thought that once Barack Obama was elected the world would love us again?  What went wrong?  Do we have to wait until he's sworn in?  Well, we'll see how that works out. 

By the way .. I did some Internet searching.  I found a few stories about prayer vigils for the Mumbai victims of Islamic terrorists --- but none held at Mosques.  Not surprised, frankly.

What others are saying

  • mumbai
    It is a shame that the terrorists chose to target people from america, england and israel and ended up killing any nationality in site. I do not feel it is the islam religion which incites violence. So many people including the author of the article has been spewing venom on this religion. I can vouch that a true Indian never feels this way. I think that is the reason why so many religions exist in India. It is the yearning for peace and prosperity that makes India resilient in the eyes of many including its own. It is the ability for us to look beyond in a constructive manner that has helped society win over many problems we face. It is now the time to reflect and take concrete actions with like minded people who want to work towards an economically strong, democratic, safe and a fine India where people from all walks of life can live together celebrating diversity and converting opportunities into success. If New York can be the melting pot of the west, then Mumbai has to be the melting pot of the east!
  • India's CCW laws
    Neal put a link under reading assignments for today regarding this topic. India has very strict firearm import laws and very strict no domestic firearm producer laws. I'm not sure about India's CCW laws exactly, but getting a legal firearm at all is VERY difficult.
  • Mumbai
    Is the citzentry of India able to carry concealed weapons? If they are not why not?
  • Loyal Democrat
    Well, Loyal Democrat sounds exactly like... well, a Loyal democrat. But, that may be too harsh. I know some strong Democrats who would never say anything as retarded as this person has said.
  • Time for India to act.
    Let India do whatever it wants to do to the Paks. The Paks allow this stuff to go on within their borders. The Pak ISI and Pak military are in cahoots with these terrorists and most of the Pak population is sympathetic. Time to send them a message. Lets hope India reaches out and touches them real good.
  • What about India's Gun Control Laws?
    It seems to me that if India didn't have such strict gun control laws, perhaps the terrorists wouldn't have been able to kill as many people before being stopped. Just my two cents.
  • whats in a name?
    The AJC called them 'militants'. I wanted to puke..
  • Loyal Democrat
    Loyal Democrat writes satire and he or she is good. Go to townhall.com sometime and read Loyal Democrate comments, they are pricesless. He or she has the liberal mindset mastered.
  • To Joyce Blythe...
    Nobody is blaming America itself, or Americans themselves. But American foreign policy MUST be addresed. When a company puts to a work a policy that fails it becomes important to re-address that policy and we have reached that point with American foreign policy. Do not let the media soundbyte hypnosis get it twisted for you. You cannot ignore the hard evidence that American policy is hurting America. Even CIA members acknowledge blowback. It is not anti-American or "blame America first" to admit that something is not working and must be fixed. If we had the Saudi military building bases on mainland America I imagine not too many Americans would be tickled with the idea. Im not sure why Americans expect other countries to be tickled with that idea. Also we must look way back to when other countries simply stepped in and started carving up these people's land with foreign artificial boundaries, again if someone where to do that to America, Americans wouldn't stand for it and they shouldn't have to. Neither should other countries. Sure there are islamic fascists bent on destroying America, but American foreign policy seems to simply be helping these nutjobs with their recruitment numbers. Trying to keep America from going bankrupt with its overreaching radical foreign policy (think back to Soviet Union vs Afghanistan) is as pro-American and America first as it gets.
  • Got to remember
    I love this, lets take the time machine Bush just a few years:
    Now Pay Attention DEMOCRATE1:

    • “I find it so funny, Bush has just taken office, and the brilliant ones who worship at the Liberal alter of, already have him blamed for all the ills of world from 9/11, to the stock market collapse,(Dot COM Bubble broke) etc, etc, funny how the zealots who live off of hate cannot wait to lay blame, guess that would be to sensible, but then they are not known for good sense, but for lacking any good sense is their claim to fame!”

    Boy does it suck when history come back to haunt you.

    BTW, these terrorist are using religion as an excuse. What you have are people wanting to be in charge so they can kill, steal, rape and pillage with impunity. To me these are not true followers of Islam, but rather have high jacked the religion for their own purpose. It saddens me that an American bomb takes out 10 thugs and accidently kills one civilian, you want a battalion of US soldiers brought up on charges. But let terrorist kill 100 innocent people and you either say nothing or call them freedom fighters. Before some of you say too much more, I think you had better go study your history a little bit more.
  • MUBBAI...GEE, I THOUGHT, ETC.
    Loyal Democrat obviously has a screw loose. There are plenty of Muslims in this country; hell, I can see a mosque's minaret from my office window. So it's not a question of making them feel "wanted", whatever that means. It's a question of whether the world will permit the continuation of the Muslim doctrine of imposing its will unilaterally on people who don't share its view of life and the world. I can accommodate and even respect to a certain extent all faiths and beliefts, but I will resist Islamic fanaticism every way I can.
  • Nonsense
    Blaming America for this is just stupid. When things go wrong in the world, flood, famine, earthquakes, we are the first expected, not asked, expected to be there to help. But yet everything is our fault. These extremists have said, in print and on video, that they will not be happy until the entire world (not just USA) has accepted their religion. Now, how are we to make them happy enough to leave us alone without giving up our religions? Answer that ONE question can anyone?
  • RE: Obama does not take office till jan 2009!
    Teresa: I'll take Liberal politics for $500, Alex!

    Alex: The answer is!
    "Obama does not take office till jan 2009, sorry to disappoint, but Bush is still in office and he gets this show for his time in office, not Obama!"

    Teresa: Why did the attacks happen over there in India instead of here in America?

    Alex: CORRECT! for $500!! Pick again!
  • Reality...
    To all those that think this is a result of any war against Islam - I have some news for you. This kind of thing has been happening in India for decades and it is not a result of any war against Muslims. Indian muslims enjoy more freedom than muslims in other Islamic countries. I don't deny that a significant majority of muslims in India are economically backward but that is more due to their own religion and archaic thinking/mindset rather than any systematic discrimination against muslims in Indian society.

    A large number of muslims in India identify themselves with Pakistan and other Islamic nations and are very sympathetic to these Jihadists. While the rest of India is making steady progress in the socio-economic and technological arena a significant portion of the muslim population in India is holding on to the extremist Islamic dogma and this massacre in Mumbai is a direct result of that perverted thinking.

    To sum it up these terrorist activities are not a result of some global anti-Islamic war but rather a direct manifestation of the Islamic dogma and their own inadequacies and perceived slights/discrimination by all other non muslims - be it Hindus, Christians, Jews, or Buddhists.
  • Obama does not take office till jan 2009!
    I find it so funny, Obama has not taken office yet, and the brilliant ones who worship at the Boortz alter of right wing radio, already have him blamed for all the ills of world from India's 9/11, to the stock market collapse, etc, etc, funny how the zealots who live off of hate radio 104.1 FM cannot wait till he takes office to lay blame, guess that would be to sensible, but then they are not known for good sense, but for lacking any good sense is their claim to fame!
  • Blowback
    Red Leader, you are somewhat correct. The is blowback in the Pak nation. There has always been blowback. Whether it is at the US, India, or another nation.

    The Pak Government will try to appease the American Government in the war on terror so that the US Aid will continue to flow. While the aid is flowing in to the country, the Pak government continues with the false information. These people are very un-trustworthy. As I said in an earlier post. I lived in that country for two years. I know!!! They hated us then. They only tolerated us (Americans) because of the money that was coming into the country from the US. This nation needs to have a close eye kept on them. Dangerous with nuclear capabilities in their hands. They may not use it, but they sure will sell the knowledge & technology. They have done it before.
  • Uninformed
    I have read through some of the comments that were left by Loyal Democrat. :: scratches head :: It it obvious that he/she (trying to be PC) has NO clue what is going on in that region of the globe. The Indians and the Pakistanis have been fighting for years & will continue to fight. The main fight is over Kashmir. The reason that I know, is because I spent two years in Pakistan w/the US Embassy.

    These two will never get along.

    I heard from the media these terrorists came from the waters through the Gates of India. These terrorist were either already in the country of come off some type of shipping vessel.

    There is more to this story than what is being told.
  • mumbai, gee
    way to go CAN YOU READ and ALABAMASTAN

    WELL SPOKEN WE ALL SHOULD THINK AGAIN WHAT ELECTING A 'black' PRESIDENT IS GOING TO DO TO THE USA all you white folks hang your head in shame
  • Islam
    Loyal Democrat is writing satire. He is very good at it and fools people on other forums, too.
  • Blowback...
    I am surprised that Neal managed to make it through this entire story without once mentioning what the CIA calls "Blowback". Also why not mention the train bombing that happpened in this area a few years back, done by the same people. Blowback comes from the resentment people feel towards America's overreaching interventionist foreign policy. There's an entire book written on the phenomena by Chalmers Johnson. Its a very real thing. Why didn't Neal mention American jets bombing Pakistan without the permission of the Pakistani government. Don't you think Americans would feel resentment towards Pakistanis if they started bombing targets in America at the disapproval of the American government even if they said it was for Pakistani safety? Lets wake it up guys. Sure Islamic Fascism is very real, but so is blowback and it must be addressed in order to get these terrorist retaliations lowered. Americans have to stop believing the anti-American myth that America can simply do whatever it likes in the world and not expect other countries resentments to cause blowback. The American empire is causing this country to go broke by believing in a 'police the world' mentality. Its time to get back to traditional conservatism and stop all the interventionist nonsense that simply comes back around to hurt America.
  • The next 4 years
    "I thought that once Barack Obama was elected the world would love us again? What went wrong?"

    Boy, those must be some pretty sour grapes.

    This is what we have to expect as commentarty from the Right for the next 4 years: "I thought everything was going to be perfect if we just elected Obama."
  • Re: This is America's Fault
    @ Loyal Democrat -

    I'm assuming that was a joke?
  • America's Fault?
    Loyal Democrat..you are a tool.

    If we are so intolerant of those who praise Allah then why are there Muslim only schools, foot baths at airports and recognition of Muslim holidays in the USA? Muslims do not as for a few concessions they ask for ALL concessions and expect every one else to bend to their demands. When we do not then we are threatened with attack and death?

    Yes that is Islam. I am angry at Islam and Muslims but you do not see anyone in American launching attacks against Muslims, destroying Mosques and attacking any Muslim we see.

    And your last comment is just moronic. Because we refuse to give into the demands of the Islamic Culture that means people had to die?

    Lets attack people that are trying to make a difference and help bridge the gap between cultures to show our anger for not following Islam?

    Makes perfect sense.

    I think we should round up all the Muslims in the world and park them on reservations with barbed wire and guard towers. They deserve nothing less.
  • mumbai
    im so glad that the muslums are peacefull.

    wait till our president elect talks to them
  • This is America's Fault
    This incident was the result of our war against Islam. If we were not so intolerant of those who praise Allah none of this would have happened. Muslims simply ask for a few concessions from us in return for them agreeing to live among us, and we resist at every turn. It's no wonder they are angry at us.

    The United States owes retribution to every Muslim who was slain in this attack, including those who were driven to carry it out. If the U.S. would make Muslims feel more welcome, this pent up anger would never reach the boiling point. As a result of our refusal to bring sections of Islamic culture into our country, innocents had to die. Once again, American foreign policy kills non-whites abroad.
  • Tax Holiday
    I helped pay for the bailout money that would be used for this FICA & income tax holiday, but have recently lost my job. Unless I quickly get another job paying as much or more than my previous job, I & millions like me get screwed & this amounts to income redistribution for minority in my situation. I'm not impressed.
  • Can you read?!
    Neal wrote, "I thought that once Barack Obama was elected the world would love us again? What went wrong? Do we have to wait until he's sworn in? Well, we'll see how that works out."

    Neal obviously knows The Chosen One hasn't been sworn in yet. He said so! And he didn't need a memo. He's not blaming Obama for the attacks, but rather he's making light of all the Obamites who were just so sure that electing a black man would make the rest of the world see that we're a-okay and there's no need to hate us anymore because we're such equal opportunity voters, and there's no reason to hate us and kill us anymore. This is one of many wake-up calls gone by and yet to come for all the "everything's gonna be okay now" types.
  • India attacks
    I saw an interview with the President of India saying"If we had a security system like America this would not have happend"!! THANK YOU FOR THE PATRIOT ACT and all the other things Bush has done to protect us!!!! Take THAT Libs!!
  • Waiting on CAIR...
    I wonder if CAIR will issue one of those "reminders" that we must "tolerate" their cult. They seem to do that after every terror attack.
  • Obama does not take office till jan 2009!
    I have one comment, Obama does not take office till jan 2009, sorry to disappoint, but Bush is still in office and he gets this show for his time in office, not Obama!
  • this comment is confusing to say the least!
    Wow, Obama does not take office till Jan, 2009, but apparently Boortz missed that memo, and wants to blame president "elect" on this terrorist attack, guess that fits, with everything else he has been trying to spin off as "its all the democrats fault for the failing economy" even though his man Bushite & company has been in office for almost 8 years now, guess that little fact is hard to ignore for the majority of americans whom voted this 2008 election, guess the Boortzites who eat his dung filled dinners daily on 104.1 FM radio, it is so interesting to watch how the far right darlings such as Boortz & company try to spin news, events! I guess it pays their bills, but it only appeals to that small non thinking segment of society they appeal too!
  • Are we to be safe
    I did read one Muslim Iman England had said if Americans, Btitish and Jews wanted to be safe, stay out of Muslim lands and areas. If there is a Muslim around you are not safe unless you have a concealed weapon per,mit and have it on you. ( the weapon)
  • The one terrorist they caught was quoted saying that they wanted to kill as many as 5000 people. It would have interesting to see how MR. Obama would have reacted to situation like that. " opened talks maybe " glad we didn't have to find out.
