I freaking live in Delhi, and I did not know of this until this very morning! It is a shame, ask me. You don't keep a watch at news because all they tell you is what Amitabh Bacchan has for breakfast and you don't have time until weekend to grab a newspaper! And well, this is truly saddening, just that I'd like to put up a million dollar question, how does the thing get in, with what the security that is set up? Eeh, well, it is like people are safer in the jail than on the roads, their houses and even places such as High Court. Disgusting, and then if we come to think of this, it'd be pretty amusing to see Rahul Gandhi deliver a speech on this issue like he'd the other day, when Mister Hazare was starving himself and his followers across the country were having staple 56-delicacies with five breads, watching him on Aaj Tak! This seems like a political issue more than a social issue, the opposition gets a bright chance to shoot their shoes at Congress and bang their desks and the media forgets it in a fortnight. No point really. The country is getting used to this, making peace with Ajmal Kasab's security.

What are the updates on this from India?

I read that some Al-Qaeda related group is taking responsibility. Any more information on suspects, demands etc. ?

First it was Hu-ji and now Indian Mujahideen has claimed responsibility. 🤢
@Savage...it is disgusting, ain't it?? These politicians should be stripped of their Z clas security and then we'll see how safe they feel. B%^&*#s!!! Oh no!! I should be respectful to them. Who knows, they'll slap a 'breach of privilege' notice on me. 🤔

Yes, you might as well be respectful unless, of course you vote or would once of age. It is only fair to criticize when you'd do something yourself. But I certainly dun mean fasting by that. 😳 The blasts will be forgotten, like Mister Hazare is. Well, I dun care, true bas***ds, all of em, then!

looks like a brief case bomb was planted by someone standing in the queue outside gate no. 5 of the high court. This person reportedly broke the line and put down his briefcase and disappeared before the bomb went off. The e mail claims from HuJi were traced to a cyber cafe in Kasmir but when the police reached there in the morning the owner of the cyber cafe had formatted all the computers thus erasing what could have been an important lead. That chap needs a lot of answering to do. He did not even maintain the records with adress and contact nos. of the clients which had been made mandatory as per law!

So whom can one really blame? Only the police, the politician , the people who frequently flaunt all rules or something else?

I hate this feeling of helplessness watching and reading about stuff like this. Keep thinking about how I need to stop waiting for the revolution to happen and be it!

I would like all to watch this clip from a Hindi film before I set off.

What we witness in India today is result of politicisation of terrorism.

Since 2006 we have up to 10 unsolved cases of bomb blast, total number of deaths is more than 300 in them. More than inability to solve cases now the feeling setting in (according to stratfor) is that there is instruction from government not to solve such cases to agencies (police/IB/CBI etc). It is being done to consolidate vote banks.

Over last 4 years (post 2008 and before) INC & cohorts have systemically destroyed Indian intelligence. Any country's potential to prevent bombing depends on following-

You get the data from the network of your human agents spread across the country and abroad, from your TECHINT (technical intelligence) set-up inside the country and along the international borders, from your interrogation and surveillance of suspects, from your local inquiries and from your interactions with different communities.

Our HUMINT was generally below par, but deficiencies in our HUMINT (human intelligence) coverage used to be made up by our above par TECHINT coverage.

This seems to have been neutralised by bombers. In 26/11 attack alone the technology used across border was VoIP which very few countries can intercept, thanks to US who provided transcripts of VoIP chat to India and live catch called Kasab else we would have been groping in dark again.

The current govt is in total disarray. After 26/11 NIA was formed to investigate terrorism in India the situation of that department is such that it doesn't have a web site (you can't contact them ), and the dept has only 25 staff..!

In one book I had read that

Counter-terrorism has three components: prevention through timely and actionable intelligence, prevention through effective physical security and attrition of the terrorists' capability through successful investigation and prosecution.

The physical security should be so tight that even if intelligence fails or is not up to the mark, we are still able to thwart the terrorists.

All these years Chidambaram and company were busy in proving Hindu terrorism (or saffron) as they call it, and the result is in front of us. As long as we have a governance which believes in communalising terrorism, investigations on the line of vote banks and completely defunct policing we will die death of a pig.
