Blood and Bollywood – Previewing the Next Target
“Tell them that this is just the trailer. Just wait till you see the rest of the movie.”
“It’s a small example. A preview.”
“The rest of the film remains to be seen.”
These comments come from one of the last calls made by the terrorists in Mumbai as they butchered innocents in November 2008.
During those days of terror, the murder squads trained by Lashkar-e-Taiba – LeT (the Army of the Good) – received their directions via cell phone from their handler in Lahore. Listening to the killers’ narrate their string of slaughter – in calls intercepted by Indian intelligence – is bone-chilling.
One line is particularly haunting: “The rest of the film remains to be seen.”
Though the Indians eventually killed or captured all of the strike team, its puppet master in Pakistan was never identified. He remains at large, as does much of the LeT leadership, including LeT founder Hafez Muhd Sayeed. (Pakistan does have one biggie – Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi – in custody, along with six other LeT members.)
