This is the effect of terror, and this is just what the terrorists want that effect to be. It ties up their enemies' time and money, and it strikes fear in their hearts, in accordance with the Qur'an: "Against them make ready your strength to the utmost of your power, including steeds of war, to strike terror into (the hearts of) the enemies, of Allah and your enemies, and others besides, whom ye may not know, but whom Allah doth know. Whatever ye shall spend in the cause of Allah, shall be repaid unto you, and ye shall not be treated unjustly" (8:60).
Of course, from the infidels' standpoint all anti-terror measures must be undertaken. But they should be accompanied by a strength of will that realizes that it is precisely fear and the loss of the will to resist that the jihadists are ultimately hoping to bring about.
From The Australian, with thanks to JE:
NEW YORK reinforced security on the city's vast public transit network in response to deadly bomb attacks on commuter trains in India's financial capital Mumbai, as US officials condemned the "horrific" blasts."We are stepping up security throughout,'' a police spokesman said.
Day duty officers will be held over to provide extra personnel during the evening rush hour, while the frequency of random bag searches on the subway will be expanded, the spokesman said.
The bag searches were introduced last year in the wake of the July 7 bombings on the London transport system.
In Washington, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice condemned the blasts, which ripped through rush-hour trains in Mumbai, as "horrific.''...
She said the United States had "great sympathy'' for the families of those killed and vowed: "We will stand with India on the war on terror.''...
Good. I hope so.
What is going on in NYC is a reminder that we are in WWIV.
from above
We will stand with India on the war on terror
Where does India stand on the war on terror? Does India participate on an unilateral fight on terror or does India prefer to sit back and let the US continue the fight basically unassisted by most of the so called civilized world?

India always stand with rest of the world when it is about terrorism. By the way India suffered lot more than anyone else in this world. Thanks to American policies of creating, funding, training and arming Al-Qaida for it's own mileage against. Well my friend now that this has come to this we need to stop thinking about the past and plan the future. Will the Americans take ANY action against Terrorist training camps in Pakistan (Well the Paks are still your friends aren't they)
Until the "eternal" Koranic terrorist plot to overthrow all governments on Earth in the name of "Allah" is exposed, all of the security measures enacted are self-castrated.
The conspiracy of silence by the media and most of the Western leadership to remain actively ignorant -about the "holy" violence, absolute intolerance and genocidal tyranny sanctified by the Koran- aids the enemy more than any military response hurts it.
We are like blindfolded swordfighters swinging wildly, in self-created darkness, as our sharp-eyed opponents wait for the moment when our blundering vitals are exposed to their blades.
Time to tear off the p.c. blindfolds.
Name the enemy. And its terrorist playbook.
Imperialistic Islam. And The Koran.
And begin encouraging the Fifth Column of Mohammedans in the West to repatriate back to Muslim lands.
It will be cheaper, in the end, than the bottomless pit of treasury-draining security measures needed to defend against an unknown percentage of Muslims among us -who are biding their time, deceiving the infidels, doing the jihad's reconnaissance, and waiting for their orders to strike in the name of Allah and the Ummah.
I dont take any comfore from Condoleezza Rice's words. One cannot win a war on Terror. How can you defeat an abstact ideal?
No, not until we have leadership that reconizeds "WWIV" as a war on Jihad will we stand a chance of winning--or surviving.
Creating, funding, training and arming al-qaida,
I am so tired of the blame America crowd.
America has been around for less than 250 years. If any country has enabled and emboldened the musmob it has to be India. For 1000 years they have had their way with the country. And now America is at fault? And was not Pakistan part of India at one time? Were we arming the pakis [our so-called buddies] then also? America is not as the media portrays, full of morons. It didn’t take 1000 years for us to figure it out. If anyone is searching for someone to blame I suggest looking in their own backyard before they criticize any other country. And you are right, it is time to stop the finger pointing [I’m done] and stand together.
Liberty or Death, the only choice for Infidels worldwide.
They should bill the NY Times for the costs.
Great site, educational, Thanks for what you do

G.W. Bush's friends not those of the United States. But then so are the Saudis the "friends" of Bush and all the diplomats, ex-diplomats, and State Department empoyees on the Saudi payroll.
That is why there is a war against "Terror" instead of against the strongholds of Islam.
Saddam's Iraq was not one of those.
Yes, we support our hapless troops in Iraq. They are being wasted there attempting to shore up an "Islamic democracy" (oxymoron).
The non-Republican alternatives to Bush&Co. here in the US are much worse.
...She (Condi Rice) said the United States had "great sympathy'' for the families of those killed and vowed: "We will stand with India on the war on terror.''...
...and investigate anyone who utters a word or commits any act against the islamics in the US in response to these murders.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. -- The FBI will investigate an online video that showed two men shooting a Quran with a military-style rifle and then leaving the bullet-riddled holy book outside a Chattanooga mosque, an agent said.
That's right Condi -- put the full weight of the Justice Department against these two men who dared to shoot up a quaran!
Just remember one thing; once these islamic terrorists eventually kill hundreds of innocent Americans -- it is "free speech" and an entitlement of these murders under the Constitution as "freedom of expression" since such actions are condoned and encouraged by the quaran.
And remeber another thing in that day Condi; if someone quotes the Bible and specifically recalls the words of Jesus outloud "love one another as I have loved you," arrest that sob for the offensive hate crime! It is an affront to islam! Says so the quaran!
The Administration appears unable to consider the cheapest ways to weaken the camp of Islam...
The Administration is unable because they don't have the moral courage, nor the stomach to do it, not that they care one wit for anything related to Jesus -- they hate Jesus.
The American People aren't much better -- they're drunk with political correctness and are content to lay in a filthy morass of smug denial; thinking in their stupor that this pathetic state of affairs makes them morally superior.
Isn't that right "John Howard!?"
What the Administration fears is losing petrol dollars and they will do anything, anything mind you, to not lose dollars -- even if they kill themselves and everyone they are supposed to represent in the bargin.
Disgusting, miserable, excuses for representatives -- all of them!
Yes, we support our hapless troops in Iraq. They are being wasted there attempting to shore up an "Islamic democracy" (oxymoron).
Our troops are not being "wasted" on anything. Many of them are fighting courageously for something they strongly believe in. Regardless of whether you agree or not with what they are fighting for, their deaths are not "wasted" deaths. The ideals they die for are not for waste.
If Ms. Rice truly wishes to do some thing productive about terrorism she can put her money where her mouth is and help us outlaw Islam in the United States (and deport our friendly Islamic enemies) before it murders any more of our citizens!!!
And the same goes for India's leaders regarding Islam there.
Ramesh: India's own policies with Iran are contributing in no small way to terrorism in the subcontinent. India continues to purchase large amounts of petroleum from Iran and is presently planning to construct a petro-pipeline leading from Iran to India. India is in the process infusing vast amounts of capital into Iran which is the controlling force of Hizbollah---THE world's largest terrorist network.
Therefore you might wish to consider what your own national government is contributing towards Islamic terrorism in India, because despite your rhetoric, India has and continues to conduct suicidal foreign policy with Iran. Iran will definitely use terrorism on India and it is high time Indians realized that. Denial won't change the fact Hizbollah is the world's largest terrorist network and it belongs to Iran.
By the way, proportional to its population size, Israel usually suffers the greatest losses of any nation from Islamic terrorism. In recent years, Sudan and other African nations (including Rwanda by the way) also suffer greater losses than India in proportion to their population size. India has a billion-plus people, which provides a buffer that smaller countries lack.
In Washington, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said the United States had "great sympathy'' for the families of those killed and vowed: "We will stand with India on the war on terror.''...

Why are we not waging war on all of the terrorists and those that support the terrorists across the middle east???????????
Oil $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ supported by the blood of American and British soldiers.
