135 killed in Indian train bombing

Oh no. Just read on the web that commuter trains have been bombed in Mumbai (formerly Bombay). Everytime I hear something like this, the possibility that it's the work of yet more lunatic jihadis makes me feel sick. No one has claimed responsibility for this yet, but authorities are suspecting separatists from the Indian state of Kashmir, where a number of bombings occurred just hours earlier.


This is terrible. Must have been hell for all those people on the trains. I'm amazed the death toll wasn't far higher, considering the population density of Mumbai and the fact that they have far less capacity to deal with this sort of thing than London.
