Mumbai Terror Phone Call

A gunman, holed up in the Oberoi Trident hotel in Mumbai (formerly Bombay), where some 40 people had been taken hostage, told an Indian news channel that the attacks were revenge for the persecution of Muslims in India. "We love this as our country, but when our mothers and sisters were being killed, where was everybody?" he asked via telephone. No answer came. But then he probably wasn't expecting one.

Muslims all across India, want to be known as Indians first and then as Muslims but that is definitely not happening. When will we fight against terror as one and not simply against one religion?
