we need to stop blaming OUR Faith, OUR Religion for what is going on all over the world, and start paying attention why?. Beying brain wash by OUR politician, not just now, but as long as we human exist. Politics are just old as Faith, so wen we put this whole thing together and insted blaming FAITH, why we can not see, that WE THE PEOPLE are responsible for all good and bad things ,that happend for million years. Live Faith and Religion free, and get those who are directly responsible for witch is”THE PEOPLE”
We like to blame those who ever we blame, but we are not fair, because we let “THOSE PEOPLE” run US around their finger, not doing enough to prevent . We letting OUR politicians to get so easly off the hook, we vote for them knowing, that THEY should not be elected again and not giving a chance to those, who could lead us to beter life. They are siittin on Congress or Senat for a life time, and why??? because we let them stay!!!So, stop blaming our Religion, blame OUR selfs…..

President Obama is a matter of national security Paul.
Read his books, the part about standing with the Muslims should the winds shift…is well, rather creepy. What Muslims, why? Why not something more reassuring, like I will stand with all Americans regardless of race, religion or creed?

It is always about religion. Religion is the one true evil in this world.

Please convert the site back to Larry’s knowledge of the CIA and international security. All this Obama bashing is a waste of time and really cheapens you Larry.

Once again, two nations - Pakistan and India - are part of the problem and the solution. The investigation hopefully will procede with cooperation between India and Pakistan. It is possibly unproductive for US officials to comment on warnings re: Mumbai because it shows India up; it exacerbates India’s perceived intelligence failure and it coincides with the motivations of the terrorists. Further, while the Bush Administration has focused on the military option post 9/11 re: counterterrorism strategy, neighboring countries in SE Asia have emphasized both the military and peacebuilding options e.g. the stated policies of ASEAN Counterterrorism Conferences. The US should follow events but not make any public statements re: Mumbai unless invited to so by Pakistan and/or India.
This strategic retraction is not unprecedented.

The news that attacks had warning is something that seems to have some political spin directed behind it.

It also cluse in the capabilities of some detection methods, allowing those who are threats to become less transparent.

Thank you, Larry!

India must also have home grown crimminals with ideological differences from the majority of Indians as well as foreigners who see them as easy pickings in a siege such as happened last week.

Westerners tend to idealize India along the lines of Gandhi’s non-violence legacy. Maybe it’s westerners who need to wake up to the fact that India is a huge economy, growing fast and shouldn’t be viewed as helpless. They should afford themselves sophisticated protection that tax paying businesses, for one example, can help support.

There was a news article about Coast Guard intercepting the hijacked trawler (and then getting killed when they went on board). But no question every aspect has to be beefed up. Resources, Resources and when a large portion of it goes to corruption I don’t know what is left to build a safer infrastructure.

I think the whole WOT is a load of crap, myself, used by Cheney for political gain, as opposed to presenting any real problem for intel.

those local terrorists that worry the commenters reminds me of yeah right, bill ayers. sure he is “retired” from such activities. but we don’t need to make this jerk a hero. some of those who suck up to him really irritate me.

benny, i am wondering if the indians might worry about the “help” they get. the indians have often expressed concern about our relationship with pakistan, so maybe this was a warning along with the typical bells and whistles that the indians don’t have patience right now with anything other than getting to the bottom of this.

You’re a great communicator, Larry. You should take over Campbell Brown’s “No Bias, No Bull”—and really mean it.

I” read over the rest, your first point was the one to make most.

Simultaneously staged attacks are of course an AQ hallmark, but the kind of deployment made to get at that point was done ahead of time. It indicates strong support from a state entity.

It’s important that this point was made first and foremost.
