Indian security forces are finishing off the terrorists in Mumbai, as commandos storm a Jewish center. Earlier, two hotels were secured, although there was a significant loss of life. The attacks appear to be motivated by an effort to destroy any possible thawing of relations between India and Pakistan. The operation was apparently well planned, and was certainly sophisticated, involving multiple teams attacking multiple targets almost simultaneously. This has heightened the Indian suspicion that elements of Pakistan's intelligence service had a hand in planning the operation. Hopefully, cooler heads will prevail, as it would be disastrous for the world if these two nuclear-armed powers were to go to war.
