Global Voices on Mumbai
By Avishay Artsy on Sunday, November 30, 2008.
![]() Our friends at Global Voices have put together an extraordinary selection of blog posts on this week's tragic events in Mumbai. As armed terrorists stormed cinema halls, hotels, hospitals, and other public places in the Indian city, killing 195 and injuring more than 300, bloggers responded with real-time updates from the ground and responses from around the world. Here, Twitter users explain the impact twitter feeds had as a source of first-hand information during the tragedy. As the terrorists targeted Israelis and Jews, there's a roundup of responses from the Israeli blogosphere about Mumbai's Jewish population and about dealing with terrorism as a way of life. Meanwhile, bloggers in India are questioning the connection between ongoing violence in Kashmir and the attacks in Mumbai, and bloggers in Pakistan are evaluating the mainstream media's coverage of the blame game between India and Pakistan.
