| Six dead in Kashmir blast |
| 2003-09-06 |
| A bomb has killed at least six people and injured 25 others in Indian-administered Kashmir. The device exploded at a fruit market in the summer capital Srinagar, reportedly as an army convoy drove by. Two of those who died are said to have been blown apart by the force of the explosion, and Indian officials said the death toll could rise further. Indian troops sealed off the area after people living nearby left their homes in panic or to search for relatives. No organisation has so far admitted planting the bomb, which police say was left in a car that was parked near the gate of the fruit market. |

| #6 Fred----cars are harder to throw at people than grenades. They have to practice some more to get the hang of it. |

| #5 I thought it had all the earmarks of Hizbul's classic grenade handling techniques, but the article said it was a car bomb... Apparently they're not too good with cars, either. |

| #4 UPDATE: The separatist militant group Hizbul Mujahideen said it carried out the attack, but claimed it had intended to target the army convoy. We specifically ordered the bomb to only explode in that direction. Everybody please go hug a muslim, after this horrific attack that one of their peaceniks carried out we don't want them to feel persecuted. They might get angry or feel offended and bomb a market place..... |
