Two Americans among those killed in Mumbai
Source: Reuters

Two Americans who were in India as part of a meditation program were killed in the attacks in Mumbai, the organization that ran the program said on Friday.

The Synchronicity Foundation said in a statement on its website that Alan Scherr and his 13-year-old daughter Naomi were killed in the attacks.

It gave no details about how they were killed but said Scherr and his family had been involved in the Synchronicity community in Faber, Virginia for more than a decade.

6. Looks like they did...
I wonder who is going to take up the responsibility and talk with them.

3. This makes me so sad.
It also disgust me!! It clearly says in the The Holy Qu'ran that woman and children are not to be attacked during a war NO MATTER WHAT! So even if these people think that what they are doing is legitimate war than it would still make this 13 year old and the seizing of the Woman and Children's hospital off limits and forbidden by the Holy Qu'ran. Every Muslim cleric in the world should be out condemning this attack LOUDLY! What cowards those people that did this. I wonder if they felt big, strong and manly killing a 13 year old little girl and holding sick woman and children at a hospital hostage. Damn. Nothing but cowards and any Muslim cleric who doesn't condemn it loudly are nothing but cowards as well.
