kapi:
Today marks exactly one year since the Bombay terrorist attacks.
We happened to be sitting a little late in office that cold November night here in London when one of us just happened to put on the BBC and there were reports that there was a bit of gunfire in one of the posh hotels in Bombay. Thinking nothing of it, we just wrapped up things and went back home.
How wrong we were.
It was horrible watching it all unfold in front of you, live on TV, Twitter, etc. These were the same places that I had been to, the same hotels that I had stayed at on more than one occasion. It made my stomach turn to knots.
What made things even worse was the fact that I could not get through to one of my friends who lived pretty close to that area. (Turns out his battery had died and he was hiding out at a friends place).
I don’t even know what to write here that will try and express how I feel. I think it’s something similar to the way Americans feel about 9/11.
I just hope that something like this never happens again anywhere in the world.
I’ve been contemplating writing something about it all day… but I just don’t know what to say.. and so I’m glad you made a post about it.. and now I can reblog it…
its been one year since the mumbai terror attacks!
After watching the documentary of 26/11 attack on Nat Geo, I was really on tears, why the hell we all can’t live in peace
