US Vows to Help India in War on Terror
by
The Times of India
11 Sep, 2006
MUMBAI: Expressing solidarity with India in its fight against terror on the fifth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, the United States on Monday said that the two countries had rapidly increased anti-terrorism co-operation in terms of sharing sensitive information to combat the menace.
Comparing New York to Malegaon on the fifth anniversary of 9/11, US ambassador Mulford said that the US would assist India to bring to justice terrorists like the Mumbai train bombers.
"India and the United States are rapidly improving anti-terror co-operation and we will do all we can to bring justice to the victims of terror. We are sharing sensitive information regarding police, forensic and disruption of terrorists' financial network," Mulford said here at a ceremony to commemorate the 9/11 victims.
"We understand all too well the pain and loss caused by terrorism in India. India has suffered repeated terror attacks in Delhi, Mumbai, Srinagar and the North Eastern states," Mulford added.
Remembering the 9/11 victims, Maharashtra chief secretary DK Sankaran pointed out Monday was also the 100th anniversary of Gandhi's satyagraha movement that he launched in South Africa.
"Today we see a conflict between terror and non-violent satyagraha that Gandhi propagated. It does not take much time to realise that in the long term the terrorist's designs will not succeed and that good will triumph over evil," he added.
Also present at commemoration ceremony were Mumbai North East MP Priya Dutt, state Director General of Police PS Pasricha and Mumbai Police Commissioner AN Roy.

They have been saying it for decades, yet were not able to stop Pakistan from norturing terorism. They are still having double standards. We need to look upon our own strengths to counter terrorism in India. Having their cooporation is good, but not at the cost of lives in India. We keep silent and wait for the world body to do something, will only sacrifice our precious lives.
Let us hope for the best.
Jai Hind!

I'd say - this will atleast pacify the souls of many naive people. I prefer govt spreads comfy lies than "harsh truth". _________________

Namaste,
Sadly, I doubt India will see much in the way of help from the U.S. Such agreements are usually made for the benefit of the U.S. in extending it's policies and intelligence gathering capabilities abroad. _________________ Namaste,
