Still not getting the info you are getting there. Very frustrating. Terrible that they keep saying this is war.

I can't believe the sheer length of time this is going on for

Well this is all the local news channels... just like it was on 9/11

Of course all sorts of catch phrases are being bandied about... 'India's 9/11' etc etc. It's not war... it's a bunch of crazy people with blood in their eyes and and a cause that will never ever be solved like this.

JUst heard the terrorists may be teenagers.

I think that is actually a quote from one of the released hostages.. they said the terrorists 'looked like teenagers' but we are hearing they are all about 20-25

His wife was in one of the rooms that caught fire. She was terribly burned and died from the burns

Now they are saying they have not found the bodies of the children. Obviously it does not look good. Tragic.

headline ... threat to blow up Hotel Fortune in Navi Mumbai ... no more news, that was just written on the screen
