| JAMMU: Security forces on Wednesday killed the last of the three terrorists holed up in the residential building in Chinore in a crowded area on the city's outskirts, 20 km from the international border, ending a 19-hour hostage drama and gunbattle. Earlier on Wednesday morning, terror struck Jammu when terrorists suspected to have infiltrated from Pakistan killed four persons including an Army officer. In a day-long gunbattle that stretched till night, the security forces killed all three terrorists. Three hostages were killed, all four children and their mother were rescued. IGP Kuldip Khoda said the second terrorist was killed while he was trying to escape under the cover of darkness. Police said two civilians, a jawan identified as Havildar Vijay Kumar and a JCO Naik Subedar V V K Paarkashan were killed by the terrorists. Six people were also injured. Earlier reports said three civilians were killed. The terrorists, who were suspected by police to be the same people who had infiltrated across the border under a cover of firing by Pakistani forces, first came in a goods carrier and attacked an Army checkpost in the Domana-Mishriwala area on Jammu-Akhnoor-Poonch highway on Wednesday morning. |

| #3 In medieval times they would throw dead people and livestock (Deadstock?) over the city walls to cause disease. Look up "Catapult" easy to build, much longer range than the clown cannon. I built one as a kid, used to throw bricks a bit farther than a city block, lots of fun. Dad said "Be sure to point that thing away from the house", we did. (Me and my 2 brothers) |

| #2 Nonsense, Anonymoose. What India needs is one of those Circus cannon that fires people into a net. India needs to begin firing all terrorists back into Pak Held Kashmir with such cannon, regardless of whether they're alive or dead. It's up to the Pakistanis to provide the net. India should give no advance warning the cannon is to be used. |

| #1 Enough of this nonsense. The standard burial for such Muslim terrorists should be wrapped in pig skin. When the Muslims bitterly complain and threaten violence, just respond by saying "Don't do crap like this, and you won't be buried in pig skin. Your choice." |
