I'd like you to break down each finding from the 9/11 commission and give me your thoughts on them first. How can we implement each finding? How much would it cost? What would be the implications of each finding? How do you feel each finding would help homeland security?

thanks brah

No thanks. I've been down this road with you before. I'm not going to spend a bunch of time on a long ass post just to have you disappear again. I asked you a simple question: Which of the commission's recommendations are you against and why? Answer or just admit you're full of **** when it comes to protecting America.

You're hilarious. I ask you a question, you dodge it by turning it around on me and when I ask why you won't answer you act like I'm the one dodging something. Pathetic. I have answered it. Here it is again: We all know Bush refuses to follow the 9/11 commission's recommendations and we all know he refuses to reinstate full funding for NYC's homeland security. And you act like he's the terror warrior and the ones who want him to do those things -- those things that would clearly represent a maximum anti-terror effort (and you refuse to refute that) -- are "weak on terror." You are so incredibly full of it. You really are your brother's brother.

Jihadists successful in series of blasts in the Bombay train system - early reports this morning claim 3-6 blasts. At least 15 confirmed deaths so far, but the numbers will be much higher

People in Pakistan must be celebrating, especially General Musharraf and his Islamofascist cronies

India: Bomb Blasts in Mumbai
July 11, 2006 13 49 GMT

Three to six bombs exploded on commuter trains in Mumbai, India, during the evening commute July 11. Blasts were reported along the Western Rail Line at the Khar, Matunga, Mahin, Jogeshwari and Mira Road rail stations. All local trains in Mumbai have stopped.

The perpetrators of this attack are likely members of Islamist militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT). Indian security forces have uncovered a number of LeT cells in and around New Delhi and Mumbai in recent weeks. The cells had plans for coordinated attacks against infrastructural targets, including ports and rail lines. Prior to the blast, a number of bomb threats were made against major Indian rail lines. These actions in the lead-up to the Mumbai attack are consistent with the militant tactic of "pinging the system" to detect response times and give victims "threat fatigue."

India was due for a militant attack by LeT in a major urban area. Though Indian security forces have been particularly effective in uncovering a number of LeT cells throughout the country, they failed to completely disrupt LeT's plans.

Blasts on trains in Mumbai kill at least 15

MUMBAI (Reuters) - Explosions hit at least four packed commuter trains during the rush hour on Tuesday in India's financial hub, Mumbai, officials said.

The local CNN-IBN news channel said at least 15 people were killed in one of the blasts at Matunga station in central Mumbai.

"The blasts happened when the trains were most crowded," D.K Shankaran, chief secretary of the state of Maharashtra, of which Mumbai is the capital said. "Ten to 15 people have been injured."

One television channel showed more than half-a-dozen injured people near the site of another blast in the Khar suburban station of Mumbai. One badly injured person lying near railway tracks was carried away by people using a long sheet of cloth.

Police officials said two more explosions took place in the Santa Cruz and Mahim suburbs of the city.

CNN-IBN reported a fifth blast had taken place but there was no official confirmation.

Dazed survivors were shown with wounds from injuries to heads, legs and hands on the railway station with little sign of any emergency medical aid.

The Mumbai blasts came just hours after suspected Islamist militants killed seven people, six of them tourists, in a series of grenade attacks in Indian Kashmir's main city, Srinagar, police said, the most concerted targeting of civilians in months.

Kashmir has been split between India and Pakistan since shortly after the two countries gained independence from Britain in 1947, but both claim it in full.

Mumbai, a metropolis of about 17 million, has been hit by a series of bomb blasts in the past decade.

More than 250 people died in a string of bomb explosions in Bombay in 1993 for which authorities blamed the city's underworld criminal gangs.
