You wont get word from Bush. He plays them close to the vest till the bombs are already falling.
I know the MSM is reporting that Bush is at Camp David for Thanksgiving, but that was said once before a few years ago when he was in the air on his way to Iraq.
Maybe on his last Thanksgiving in office he's headed to the other front in the WOT? Wouldn't that be something? And (wishful thinking maybe) while he's there, maybe he could join in on a few sorties over AQ's Pock-eee-stahn vacation camp?
Hey, I'm just dreamin'...

"Makes little sense that heavily armed local terrorist would arrive by rubber dingy. They could have just drove a car or walked around town. Only way that makes sense is if the waterways gave them better attack logistics." Come ashore on the beachfront at night, grab some taxis, and boom!

Definitely. These guys will talk. Some people think that people don’t talk or just lie under -harsh- interrogation methods.
That is not always accurate.
The Israelis managed to get Yahya Ayyash “the Engineer” by going heavy on some dudes they had detained.

There were so many attacks that the general consensus is that some attackers came from boats, while others may have been local plants. Not completely known at this point in time. Would be interesting to learn exactly where the boats were used.

“Yes, why would a locally based group choose to assault in boats? They would have so many more options on land, unless the water routes/access points were just a lot more vulnerable, etc.”
Maybe there was no security focused on the water side?
To: justa-hairyape
Just by looking at the age of some of the attackers in the pix I would have guessed they were locals.

Very possible that boats were the amo transports. Use cover of night. Go back to boats when and if ammunition runs low. A good logistical support point that not many would suspect. Just heard some speculation that some of the terrorists must have checked into hotel because they did not know how they could possibly get that much amo into the hotel. There are metal detectors, but guests do not typically have their luggage searched.

“Twenty Israelis Missing in Mumbai”
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “(IsraelNN.com) Twenty Israelis are missing in Mumbai following Muslim terrorist attacks Wednesday night, and others were abducted at a hospital and luxury hotels, including several who have maintained phone contact from the eighth floor of a hotel
The army has blocked off the Chabad House, where Israelis were eating dinner as the terrorists attacked, and gunshots occasionally have been heard.”

"Per live feed- several Israelis are held hostage on the 19th floor at a hotel.." Taj doesn't have 19 floors, must be Oberei. Or Trident. Unlike what has been reported above, Google Maps show Oberei and Trident hotels to be separate, though near each other.
