I'm very sorry that you were hit by the Mumbai attacks in such a personal way... I have some sense of what that's like; I lived in NY during 9/11, and it was a tough and traumatic experience to live through.
Don't doubt that non-Indians were upset by this event; it was heinous. But actually, I am Indian. I was born and raised in the U.S., but my parents came over from here from Calcutta, and I've visited India. :)
Thanks for taking the time to tell me exactly how you reacted to this piece; that means a lot to me.
