I didn’t even make the connection with the date Tuesday but it was July 11:<\/p>\n

Indian intelligence specialists are investigating whether a series of deadly bombings in Mumbai (Bombay) Tuesday were the work of an al-Qaeda-affiliated, Pakistan-based terrorist group.
\nPolice sources told several Indian media outlets Wednesday that the coordinated attacks were probably carried out by Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), with the help of Indian Islamists attached to a banned Muslim students’ group, SIMI.
\nThe view concurred with that of security analyst Bahukutumbi Raman, who suspects LeT as well as elements in SIMI and individuals linked to a fugitive Mumbai criminal underworld figure, Dawood Ibrahim.
\n[…]
\nMore than 170 people were killed in at least seven powerful blasts, occurring within minutes of each other on the commercial capital’s commuter train network during evening rush-hour. A Mumbai police spokesman said more than 460 people had been injured.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nBTW, I wrote this 24 hours ago and I’m just posting it today. That’s what my day was like yesterday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
