Mumbai attacks

Zakaria of Newsweek comes from that area of India, and brings up several points that haven't been noted elsewhere:
That the hotels attacked are not the usual ones where Americans stay but have important symbolic value to Indians...unlike in Jakarta, the Marriott where most Americans stay was not attacked...(side note: maybe the Marriott had better security?)

he also points out that they terrorists didn't speak Urdu...so probably they come from Kashmir, and are not Alqaeda.
