    The commandos should have better tactics and better equipment. Do they have any surveilance robots? Even low-tech ways to gather info, such as putting tiny cameras on extendable booms. Also; lowering same on wires from above. Altogether, it sounds like a failure of commando tactics and gumption on the part of the Indian special forces.

    Wow two days!
    How long have Israeli gunmen held Palestinians in the concentration camp known as Gaza?

      Israel has closed its border with Gaza. This makes sense, as Gaza is for all intents and purposes in a state of war with Israel.
      But Gaza also has a border with a fellow Arab state, Egypt. What I don't understand is why Egypt has closed its border with Gaza as well. Why doesn't Egypt trade with Gaza?

      So, you're saying that this was justified? You're twisted.

    This incident was so filmi the only thing missing was Katrina Kaif This is not a kind of terrorist attacks Al-Qaida or others known for. All of us in Pakistan strongly condemn this but majority believe that its fabricated and initiated by Indian Intelligence to put pressure on Pakistan. We all know that this region has potencial to be like EU but our old lords have different agenda -

      Standard attempt to divert responsibility. Blame the victims' government. This is the same twisted logic that Muslims tried to use with New York. Is it self-delusion or just a dodge?

      Why don't you ask your own government this same question? Especially your ISI chief , and if you think that this is set up by th Indian government against it's own people, you only need to look at Pakistan's track record for terrorism and how dismal your country is when it comes to doing anything about it. Shame on you and people like you to turn this into a joke.

    There was an American reporter besides this one who was actually an eyewitness from her room across the street. It will be important to read her final report as well as others before the world figures out just what did happen. The fact that a young couple trying to do good things for their people were killed by either the terrorists or the rescuers is a sad story as it would be if they were Muslim or any religion.
