Initially it accused the Lashkar-e-Tayyibah group or accuses the Pakistani intelligence of training the attackers. But then the threats and warnings subsided and the Indian parliament discussed (on 17th December, 2008) tightening laws to prevent terrorism.

What is the reality? Why is the Indian government wavering to take a resolute decision, and were these events local, regional or global?

Makassar, South Sulawesi (ANTARA News) - Muslimah (female Muslims) grouped in Hizbut Tahrir Indonesia (HTI) rejected capitalism which was identical to colonialism, according of a spokeswoman of HTI Muslimah.

Does this indicate the frustration of the American allies who are fighting on behalf of the US in Somalia and their inability to hold on anymore?
