The truth about Mumbai

Did A Ship Really Sail from Karachi to Mumbai with Terrorists?
NO!

Here's Why!

Total Distance from Karachi Port to Mumbai Port = 500 nautical miles
1 nautical mile = 1,852 metres exactly
One nautical mile converts to:
* 1,852 metres (exact)
* 1.150779 mile

The speed of the troller India accused of that traveled from Karachi to Mumbai was traveling in is 10 nautical miles per hour at the max!

Lets do some simple math. We have distance, we have speed. We can get the time.

T = Distance/Speed
T = 500/10
T = 50 hrs (Just a little over 2 days)

Now here's the interesting bit.

Number of Radars along the West Indian Coast = 21 known

21 radars missed a troller that was illegally traveling in Indian waters for over 2 days? And a troller is no little fishing boat, it's visible to the naked eye. How in the world did the Indian Navy not see it? Not even 1 Indian Navy personnel on the coast or at sea managed to detect it.

Why couldn't they detect it?

1. Indians failed to detect movement of the alleged merchant ship from Karachi and then its off loading of passengers at high sea.

2. These 10 daredevils traveled in rubber dinghies up to Bombay shores unnoticed. Was the Indian coastal defense system asleep?

3. The terrorists waded through the marshes of Bombay coastline, reached the road network, hijacked police vehicles, divided themselves in three groups and then headed for their targets in the posh localities of Bombay, and EVERYTHING GOES UNNOTICED.

4. Like precision guided missiles these terrorists reach their targets and take over heavily guarded two 5-star hotels, dodging the security system of the entire city of Bombay and the internal security system of these 5-star hotels and the Jewish center also.

5. They fight it out with Indian commandos for 3 days and all but one is killed. The Indians claim that he is ISI sponsored. If we believe the Indian storyline, it defies logic. How can a professional spy agency like ISI commit the following mistakes:

a. Sailing the terrorist off from Karachi. Why not Dubai, Chittagong or Eden for better deception?

b. Credit cards of Pakistani origin in their pockets. Do the suicide bombers carry the IDs in their pockets?

c. Their Pakistani Punjabi ascent. The first lesson given to intelligence operators is to adapt to local environments. If such an operation was planned by Pakistan and ISI, the operatives would have known that they would have to communicate/negotiate with the hostages and others and hence would have concealed this giveaway sign.


Critical Questions Unanswered

1) If the terrorists were Pakistani, how did they have such an intimate knowledge of the terrain? The two or three cowards who attacked the CST on Wednesday night made their way from the CST through a road on the left side of The Times of India building towards the Cama and Albess hospital/Azad Maidan police station, a route that is known only to true-blood Mumbaikars. Were they locals? Or did they conduct extensive reconnisance of the likely routes of escape?

2) The terrorists are said to have done extensive reconnisance of the city. If they are Pakistanis, how did they get earlier entry to the city unnoticed? Did they come in by boat? Or did they use other routes to escape notice?

3) Such an operation could not have been conducted without extensive training and preparation, possibly on models of the Taj and Trident or Chabad House/Nariman House. Could this have been achieved at the rudimentary training camps hosted by the Lashkar-e-Tayiba in Pakistan occupied Kashmir? Or was it a more systematised operation conducted by a State agency in a hostile country?

4) Could some of the terrorists have come by boat from the Alibag-Murud Janjira area in Maharashtra's Raigad district, rather than from Pakistan? Boats ply through the day from the Alibaug area to the Gateway of India, and it would be easy for terrorists to use this mode of transport rather than high-speed boats which would have attracted the Coast Guard's attention.
