Israeli experts weigh in on the terror in Mumbai

Sunday, November 30th, 2008

As the murderous terrorist attacks in India seem to have come to a close and the wreckage is sorted through Israeli experts have begun to voice their opinions on the whole affair as well as the methods that were used to finally kill the terrorists.

Israel’s analysis will be particularly scrutinized as, unfortunately, Israel has lots of experience in such terror acts and the Mumbai Chabad House was one of the higher profile targets. Though thoughts will continue to come forth in the coming weeks and months, one of the facts that seem to be in agreement is the lack of prior intelligence that helped to lead to the attacks. While reacting to a coordinated attack of such scope is certainly no easy task and should be taken into account one positive that can hopefully come out of this tragedy is yet another people being exposed to the realities of extreme Islam that has terrorized Israel for years and is now pouring out to the rest of the world.

We can only hope that, together with G-d’s help, this continuing opening of the world’s eyes will help to eventually stop the murderous rampage that radical Islam has unleashed on the world. May Hashem bless the souls of all the good people who were killed as well as their families.
