From what I know these people seem to have entered through see, heavily armed and starting firing on people and throwing grenades on the roads. They appear to have planned all of this a lot and are very heavily armed (just heard something about police recovering a jacket full of grenades.

At the time of writing the hostage crisis in Taj has ended and the army is marching into the Trident hotel.

When they say the Taj Mahal was attacked, do they mean the original Taj Mahal (famous palace) or is it just the name of a building?
Feel free to PM me or email me. ;)

They are talking about the Taj Mahal hotel, not the mausoleum -  just happens to be named the same name

I try to not reply much to the General Chat area but saw this and had to say something...

Terrorism has always effected other countries...  not just my own  (the US)     There have been attacks in  Spain (Madrid - the train),   Great Britian (London - the subways),  Jakarta (the dance club)... etc plus hundreds of thwarted attempts in countrys all around the globe.
Also 9/11 happened on US soil but it effected many countries besides the US -  more than 90 countries lost citizens - not only US soldiers have fought since that day.   This has been always a worldwide issue.
