Blasts in Bangalore…3 killed already

I am hoping against hope that this is not another terorist attack..

Six explosions have hit the southern Indian city of Bangalore in a span of 15 minutes, police say [ link ]

at least three people were killed [ link ]. Not sure if there were six or more blasts

Stay tuned for more.

Long list of related tragedies:

Another day, another blast – “Kuch nayee baat batao yaar”

Blasts? What Blasts? “Yeh to hota hi rahta hai”

Anger, tears and despair

and Four Years, Two Attacks, One “Story

.

UPDATE: In case of anyone still thinks it may have been an accident or an act by some misguided youth:

“In all these cases they have created the blast using timer devices,” Bangalore Commissioner of Police Shankar Bidri told reporters at the site of one of the blasts. “Explosives have also been used, in quantity equal to one or two grenades.” [ link ]

    I sincerely hope the terror strong hold in Bangalore city , Shivaji Nagar is systematically cleansed of such elements.

    We must pay back in the same coin and wipe out these vermins.

    Under the UPA, India has become a cesspool of terrorism.

    Soft target my ass, just let the cops go about their business, without any interference and see the difference for your selves.
