India Bombings Update. "Gujarat on the edge as more bombs found," from Indo-Asian News Service, July 30:
SURAT/AHMEDABAD/NEW DELHI: Just when Gujarat was returning to normalcy after 50 people were killed in Saturday’s serial bombings in Ahmedabad, 23 low-intensity bombs were recovered from Surat by yesterday evening as cities across India remained on the edge.
“It’s been only because of a vigilant public that we managed to reach in the nick of time and defuse them. We have asked people to avoid crowded areas,” said the city’s police commissioner R M S Brar.
Brar ordered closure for the day of all cinema theatres, colleges, schools, malls and parks even as panic gripped people. He also asked leaders of textile industry and diamond market associations to keep their businesses shut today.
Seventeen bombs were recovered yesterday from Varachha area where a large number of diamond processing units are located. One bomb was recovered from the city outskirts in Mahinderpura. Four bombs were found from Varachha two days ago and one more late Monday evening.
Yesterday morning, the first bomb was recovered from behind the Labeshwar police post when a provision store owner was opening his shop around 9am.
As he was pushing his shutters up a packet fell down. He immediately called the police and a team led by police inspector V B Patel reached the spot with the bomb disposal and dog squads. A little later another bomb, placed inside an electric meter box, was recovered near the Baroda Bridge in Santoshnagar area close to a garment shop.
Later in the afternoon, a bomb was recovered near a tree close to the Matawadi police post in Varachha. Even as cops were heaving a sigh of relief, they had to rush to Varachha’s mini diamond market where four more bombs were recovered.
Of the 17 bombs found from Varaccha area, three were placed precariously on an advertisement banner over a bridge.
Strangely, none of the detected bombs exploded, leading to various theories on whether the city was being used as a staging post and a cache by terrorists on their way to Ahmedabad.
On Sunday, two abandoned cars laden with explosive materials were found from Surat, Gujarat’s second largest city....
There’s nothing like the hide and the chutzpah of the soldiers of Allah; they sure know how to dish it out before that dreaded ‘backlash’ even comes. Their howling and whingeing is nauseating. Here you can take a look at the pretentious BS they post on Muslim Village, were you can find the usual ‘no proof it was Muslims who did it’ to accusing the Hindus of being bloodthirsty killers, while some suggest the Hindus had it coming because of some riots 10 years ago etc etc…

only in India can they say low intensity bombing with over fifty people killed. is life that cheap in India?
Two dozen bombs found. How many more are left to find - a few thousand? Given India's size, that's a lowball estimate.
Yes, the anthem of the "Religion of peace" is heard again...
India should come down hard on muslims living in India. Send them all packing to Pakistan. Wishful thinking....
OT, but where's Darcy these days? On holiday, perhaps?

India has had some lousy neighbors, for a long time. Fifty people, give or take, probably is a low number of mass murder victims.
I don't know any of the statistics, but maybe one of our Indian posters has an idea how many people India has lost to Islam.
This is what you can expect when you have a large Muslim population. People are stupid to feel complacent thinking that the extremists are only a tiny minority of the Muslims: if you have a million Muslims and “only” 1% of them are extremists, that’s 10,000 extremists willing with many plotting to kill you.
Face it, Muslims are just bad news and you don’t want any of them around. Their immigration here must be stopped. That's not Islamophbia, that's Islamorealism.
Is there any doubt in anyone's mind that Islam is of the devil? All they want to do is kill, steal, and destroy.
By the way, I recently purchased HOLY LAND: Christians in Peril [DVD] (2001) Pierre Rehov. This is a documentary on when the muslims were being chased down by Israel, and they holed up in the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem. Remember that? What you didn't hear was that they installed explosives all over the church, probably to blow it up if things didn't go their way. They also stole everything in the church that they could get their hands on. Funny, we didn't hear that side of the story.

================================================
According to Andrew Bostom's great book The Legacy of Jihad: Islamic Holy War and the Fate of Non-Muslims, India lost lots of people due to continual jihad (think Genghis Khan). Ruthless butchering of non-muslims. Many non-muslims left India to become the gypsies of Europe. I'll bet you never heard that one, but it's documented in his book.
Yet another legacy of "the religion of peace".
It is apparent to me that violence is common in countries with a sizable Muslim minority. In areas of the world where Islam is in close contact with other cultures, violence is a regular event.
I fail to understand why so many non-Muslims either are unaware of this, or deny it.

They are intimidated into silence on many levels -- the media, political leaders, and just regular people who don't want the muslim mob coming after them.
The muslims are experts at this game, having had 1400 years to perfect their methods.

Yes, Zena, life (Hindu life) IS that cheap in India, a nation with 85% Hindu majority. This is a sad commentary on the state of affairs in my country. In an effort to get Muslim votes, EVERY political party panders to their whims. Politicians trip over each other to kiss Muslim ass. After every act of terror, you hear the same BS: terror has no religion, people are resilient, we will not be cowed down,.... Such statements are repeated again and again. In my country, the Prime Minister ACTUALLY loses sleep because an Indian Muslim is charged in Australia over his links to terror outfits. But, the same PM sleeps soundly when Hindus are killed. It is a nation currently ruled by super-dhimmis. Unless we strike terror in the hearts of terrorists, these thugs will continue to kill and then whine about Islamofacism. After watching the antics of Islam, I am PROUD to be an Islamofacist and I hope EVERY Hindu becomes one. Peace to fellow kaffirs!
If anyone is interested, there are some very good sites on the internet detailing the the jihad against India or the "Hindu Holocaust". Very sobering reading.
It is a tragedy that the Muslim invasion of India is ignored here in the west. It should be taught in all of our World History classes.
IndianTiger, never submit!
To all interested -
It is estimated that over a period of 1400 years, India has lost anywhere from 60-80 million people due to Islam.
I do not know if this counts the Bangladesh massacre of 2.5 million by Pakistan when India liberated Bangladesh from Pakistan in 1971. Today, Hindus are treated as 3rd class citizens in an increasingly Islamic Bangladeshi society.
Blue.
Life is cheap in India of Jawans and BSF constables. But life of politicians is VALUABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Jihadies know that.
Slight correction to my previous post: I meant that I am proud to be ANTI-Islamofascist. I will oppose and fight Islam's fascism tooth and nail.
To tanstaafl: No, I will never submit to Islamists.
