Hi When India warned of terrorists earlier, everyone mocked, later the Russians joined the hit list, now its the US, next will be the China and then Europe (atleast Britain will be targeted). Its time to remove Taliban and all those who preach fundamentalism and intolerance. I pray god that atleast our USMA members are safe. Condolences to those who were died in the attack. I request everyone in the list to visit the temples of other faiths/religions so that we develop tolerance towards everyone and their faith. Hope the new World Trade Center will be in 100 % SI. Currently I am vacationing in India. Madan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email alerts & NEW webcam video instant messaging with Yahoo!

2001-09-11 As I was reading this, CNN began reporting live of an attack on Kabul, Afghanistan. The reporter with a British accent was using exclusively FFU. Seems the attack is on the area near the airport. The time there is 02:30 local time (18:00 h EDT). Even if Afghanistan is not directly responsible, I would sure like to see the Taliban ousted.
