| By Anees Jillani ON July 25, eight small bombs exploded in quick succession across the south-Indian city of Bangalore, killing a woman and wounding at least 15 people. So far the Indian police has few leads into the bombings. The Bangalore Commissioner of Police told the media that timer devices were used in all the bombs, and explosives were used in a quantity equal to one or two grenades. India's home ministry said that it suspected "a small militant group" was behind the attacks, but has yet to give any details. |

| #3 The militants for a number of years continued with the cruel practice of lining up Hindus in Indian-held Kashmir and spraying them with gunfire: the purpose was to force them to leave the territory and the militants succeeded to an extent in this endeavour. The Taliban are more ruthless, perhaps because non-Muslims are not so easily available and thus many a times take out their anger either in a sectarian manner or on people who refuse to cooperate with them. So... lining up Hindu villagers and and shooting is not so ruthless? True ruthlessness only shows when non-Muslims are not available? |

| #2 Since Partition, Pakis have reduced the Hindu population of Pakistan from 20 to 1%. In contrast, the muslim population of India has doubled to 16%. In that context, Pakistan is in a good position to bleed India. I suspect ISI involvement at some level. |

| #1 Otherwise, the Taliban will employ the British tactic of 'divide and rule' and will continue to conquer. The author still misses the point. The Talibunnies should be the least of their worries if they keep supporting terrorism. |
