    This was excellent documentary. It shows the courage of human beings and it also shows how people set aside all differences and prejudices when all of us are in need. If we had a world that acted accordingly as these brave peopele did there would be no Mumbais’ and no wars.

    Thank you

    The story is horrific. We live in an age that some called WW III. If only the world would turn from hate and power over to dialogue, love, and selflessness we would not be living through this age of international terrorism. There are root causes that go back centuries as to why this is happening, but of course no one likes to look at root causes since it will ask us to look at what we have done as individuals, groups, governments, nations, religious sects, and empires. We will be living many more years in this state of anxiety until one day, one way or another is will all end as all things end.

    An amazing program. Unfortunately it was about a planned distruction of human life. By an evil force that at any time will wipe out innocent people for no reason except for their own twisted beliefs. It really struck me emotionally, and I commend all involved in the production of this program. And my heart goes out to all the brave people who endured this atrocity.

    Nice documentary.

    Killing people for the sake of getting 72 virgins and rivers of wine, my God! Of course Kuran itself says that by killing the kafirs[infidels] you are doing them a favour as the longer they’d have lived more sins they would have committed. Masacring and genociding their way through Iran, Central Asia and afganistan the Islam is not satisfied yet, they want to continue genociding non muslims untill only mohammadans are left in the world. What a sick religion!

  9. Terry Allen says:

    Human life is precious. Great job on the piece. Makes me fearful, grateful for the freedom I have. I want to keep it. Actually makes me want to get a hand gun to protect myself from possibly going through this. Unbelievable disregard for human life.

  10. ddd says:

    that was a good documentary

  11. sad says:

    These stupids are not Muslims. They’re murderers that should rot in hell.

    Mark, your comments are ignorant and uneducated. You spread hate. The same hate these people shared. Many Muslims died as well.

    Nice documentary. very sad

  12. Dr. Awan says:

    well, till date India cannot prove that terrorists are from Pakistan. The dummy proof they are producing can be proved fake in any court. No international agency is satisfied with Indian claims. On 18 February 2007 Samjhota Express was attack in India, killing 64 inocent Pakistanis. At firest Indians accused Pakistan but later on their own investigator Haimant Karkare, head of the Anti-Terrorist Squad, reached to the main culprits and they were a team of Indian military persons along with Hindu extremists, headed by Indian Army Lieutenant Colonel PS Purohit.
    Mumbai attack is surely a drama staged by Indian fanatics and proof is that Haimant Karkare and his team were the first to be killed. Haimant Karkare was almost going to expose all the fanactics in Indian government and politics as well as in military.
    All attackers were talking in Marathy and were yellow bands of BJP.
    I request you to avoid accusing Pakistan as this act is nothing but Yellow Journalism.

  13. Nath says:

    Dr. Awan how silly you are? you’re claims are so stupid. Everybody knows that the attackers are from Pakistan. Here I am not saying these guyz were trained by Pakistani Govt. Hopefull United States army wash out all these extremist who are hiding in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

  14. salim says:

    These men do not reflect normal, decent-minded muslims and pakistanis. These men reflect a mindset that is incompatible with both civilization, and yes, incompatible with Islam. I ask my fellow Pakistanis to not be fooled by conspiracy theories. There is a problem with extremism, and we must learn to face it with the true spirit of religion, not pointing the finger everywhere else.

  16. TJH says:

    Moving and disturbing. When will we learn…

  17. Alex Smith says:

    Asking hostages to prove they are Muslims before gunning everyone else. ” Kill them all except Muslims”. Can the film maker draw any conclusions?

  18. SD says:

    Dr. Awan, are you sympathizing with the terrorists despite all the recordings, independent verification by FBI, live recording and tracing of calls to Pakistan? Its because of stubborn sympathizers like you that humanity cannot wake up and seriously solve any problem!

  19. sree says:

    I felt sorry for Turkish couple, they did not make any attempt to saving any *non-muslim* lives.
    They used Islam as cover and survived…being Muslim they could have saved some lives…

    Many thanks, this particular article ended up being quite interesting, My spouse and I anticipate reading through more of this site.

    Islam:- God betrayed humanity

  22. Jmac says:

    The world does not do enough to condem islamic terrorism especially moderate muslims….funding for these murderers comes from muslims worldwide, from mosques and individuals and must sop…teaching this terror is done in islamic schools which are again funded by all muslims who do not challenge ….thq koran is used to justify this terror and passages are directly quoted but not challenged or removed by mullahs….muslims of all sects are actively supporting this war on ‘kaffirs’ across the world and it is time that this ‘garbage religion (not the only one either !!) was proscribed and denigrated out of human thought.

  23. J. Lino says:

    Too many snakes to count are living under my house. Do I not call an exterminator because ALL snakes are not poisonous ? Do we not execute mass murderers because it brings us down to their level? When atrocities are committed in the name of islam ,and muslims,worldwide are instructed to murder ALL NON- MUSLIMS ,we assure our nation of targets ,”it’s the radicals and extremists, not REAL muslums .” THE ENTIRE WORLDWIDE MUSLIM CULT IS EVIL!! Anyone who doubts it is a lamb, cluelessly waiting for the end. If we started leveling every mosque and islamic school on Sept.12 , this mess might be halfway cleaned up by now.

  24. Tyler says:

    If murder were being perpetrated in the name of your God, would you not be the first to stop those who are doing it?

    I think most would answer yes, then why do the Western Nations have so much trouble securing the assistance of Islamic nation in our fight against Islamic extremism?

    Deep down everyone, with an iota of intelligence, knows why, but many hope we can neutralize the extremist threat without openly recognizing the truth.

  25. [...] Back to my point though. This morning while I was getting dressed, I was watching this documentary on PBS about a terrorist attack in India several years ago. The program included interviews with the survivors, who were very candid about the terror and the other more surprising human emotions that they experienced in the time they were held hostage in two besieged Mumbai hotels. (Here’s a link to the program in case you’re interested: Secrets of the Dead – Mumbai Massacre) [...]

  26. Malcolm says:

    Although this documentary was very well done, it left out at least one important piece of information. From what I read, the terrorists specifically targeted Merriman House in order to kill Jewish people and they succeeded in their goal, brutalizing and murdering Jewish tourists and businessmen who were staying there, as well as the young Rabbi and his wife. The Samuel woman was the only one referenced in this piece, but there was a whole story to be told about it.

    The problem the world is dealing with is the inability of many nations to civilize their citizens. Poverty is just one factor that leaves human beings stuck in a primitive emotional and mental condition, as these “robotic,” naive terrorists were. The continued hold that religious writings have on such types of primitive people leads to primitive interpretations and unchecked murderous impulses. The task for the civilized world is monumental, but it must persevere in its goal to prevent this from continuing.

    You just send your jsts kill some thousands people, or may be like Israel killing childern with tanks, you don’t have to committe sucide, you have all the weapons that can extinct people.
