WARNING: PROGRAM MIGHT BE INAPPROPRIATE FOR CHILDREN AND WEAK MINDED PERSONS! PRGRAMM WAS AIRED ON INDIAN TV! VICTIMS OF ISLAMIC TERRORISM ARE SHOWN!Celebrated American autobiographer Maya Angelou once said, "History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again."Buzz up!The following section briefly lists the sequence of events that led to and constituted the 26/11 Mumbai Terror Attacks of Nov 2008.As per the details revealed by Ajmal Kasab, the lone surviving terrorist of the 26/11 Mumbai attacks who is under trail in India, it all began at the dawn of Nov 23 when a group of ten terrorists aged between 18 and 24 boarded a small boat at a Karachi port.The men carrying carrying AK-47s, 7.65 mm pistols, hand grenades along with dry fruits to sustain them during the seize period were later picked up by a bigger ship, al Huseini.After sailing for hours, the al Huseini approached the Gujarat coast where the terrorists hijacked an Indian fishing trawler, the MV Kuber.India observes first anniversary of 26/11 carnageFour of the Kuber crew members were taken to al Huseini and killed, while the navigator was kept alive to help them reach Mumbai. The navigator was later beheaded and his body was thrown in the engine room.Thus the terrorists infiltrated the Indian western coast and divided themselves into groups and strategically targeted key points of the country's financial capital to achieve maximum devastation.After having minor encounters with locals, the terrorists initiated the attack on Nov 26, 2008 with an attack on Cafe Leopold. The cafe which is popular among foreign tourists was targeted for the very same reason. Two terrorists showered rounds of bullets indenting the centuries-old walls of the cafe and turning the floor into a pool of blood. 10 people were killed here and many injured.After this, bombs exploded in two taxis across Mumbai killing five people and sending around 15 people to hospitals.Kasab along with his accomplice Ismail Khan take a taxi to the Chhattrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST). The two men ravaged the nation's busiest railway station killing over 52 people and injuring more than 100, most of whom were just returning home after a hard day's work. They then headed to the Cama Hospital and opened fire. ATS chief Hemant Karkare who tried to chase them in a jeep was killed along with three of his men. The terrorists, who took the jeep and fled, were intercepted by a police team at Girgaum Chowpatty where Ismail was killed and Kasab arrestedMeanwhile, four men (including two who attacked Cafe Leopold) enter the Taj Hotel turning over 200 guests into hostages. The landmark five-star hotel became another scene of massacre as the body count began and security forces carefully planned the operations to ensure the safety of civilians. The hotel was under seize from 26th to 29th of Nov 2008 with grenade explosions and gunshots reminding the forces that innocent lives were at stake.In a bid to attack the social and economic elite of the country, two terrorists attacked Oberoi Trident, located very close to Taj. Explosions and gunshots resounded the site as terrorists took hostages. NSG commandos and other forces were rushed in and the situation was under control by Nov 28, 2008.Two other attackers entered Nariman House carrying out that part of the plot aimed at targeting American Jews. On Nov 27, the evacuation and other rescue operations began. On Nov 28, 2008, commandos descended from helicopters onto the roof of the house, only to find the six hostages, including the rabbi and his wife, tortured and murdered. However, the terrorists were killed and the building sanitised.Nine out of the ten terrorists were killed during the operations. The 60-hour long terror strike claimed over 170 lives and injured hundreds. And the terror attack permanently scarred the collective memory of the country.
