Terrorist attack in Mumbai/Bombay India

[mystikchick]

I've spent the last 48 hours watching my beloved city of Bombay (it's not home any more, but I've got family and lots of friends there) being ripped apart by these bastards. I've lost family in the line of duty. Slowly but surely the number of people in my extended network that have been affected is bound to rise. It's heart breaking and horrific and unreal.

If you could all keep Mumbai, it's citizens, the victims, and their families (with a special request for my own - my uncle leaves behind a wife and two small boys), I would be deeply grateful.

I'm sorry to hear about your uncle, mystikchick.

I've spoken to some Indian friends here in the US, and American friends in India, and the situation is terrible. Completely scary, and I'm especially worried for my Jewish friends, who report that Jews specifically are being targeted.

It's been confirmed that the rabbi and his wife were killed, although an employee who escaped from inside did rescue their infant son.

There have also been confirmed that two Americans were also killed.

May their memories be blessed.

This is just terrible. I wouldn't wish this type of violence on any country or people.

mystikchick, I am very sorry to hear about your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you, your family and the people of Mumbai.
