Amaresh Misra talks about the Mumbai tragedy
ABN Chicago on Sunday did an interview with Amaresh Misra, a renowned historian, an activist who witnessed the tragic events in Mumbai. He has a very different view of the things occurred. He is one the few voices who were not given much coverage by the “Pseudo Secular” Indian media and brought some interesting insights into the tragedy:
- The mysterious circumstances under which the ATS Chief Karatke and the top brass was wiped out.
- The number of muslims killed which are around 30.
- The mystery behind Nariman House and his inside scoop on this place.
- The identity of Terrorists.

Thank you Doc for providing this link ,it is encouraging to see there are people ” Amaresh Misra ” who really are thinking originally to save their roots,their values and their country.
After a very long time I have read an original comment from an Asian.
His analysis can be applied to Pakistan as well and even more so because we are in direct conflict with USA.
Did not understand onething why he thinks USA will get into war against INDIA?

The Problem with Amaresh misra is that he wrote 20 books and none of them were sold. Then he realised that If you want to sell something in India it needs to be controversial. So he has gone into Reality Fiction. Bravo Amaresh you are fantastic in creating stories from no where. Just wanted to know onething mate. who gave you Phd? use aur tujhe dono ko sarhad paar chod dena chaiye and then you will understand difference between Kafir and Indian Muslim. Hindu tolerate karte hai to unks sir pe mat chadho.
Bhopali
What you wrote is not acceptable your hatred of reducing human beings to the level of “Kafir and Muslim ” a language which is extremely dangereous …….
If you have a right to use this extreme language against a scholar ,he has every right to express unity to his country.
Tragedy is you are not the only one my friend we have loads like you on both sides of border line.
Salaam Alaikum,
This is an excellent theory which i coincides with my findings since the 26th night when the shooting began at CST and Nariman house.
1] I was perplexed when one of the news channels (i think Samay, Sahara, or Zee Marathi) announced that there were Mossad men surveying the area within 2-3 hrs of the shooting… “how come they arrived so soon?” was the question hitting my head..
2] Why did the terrorists buy 35k-50k worth of chicken n liquor n keep it at Nariman house?
3] How can 2-4 terrorists eat n drink all that?
4] Who kept the heavy RDX gunny bags at the entrances of Taj and Oberoi hotels? obviously not the terrorists as then it would have been suicidal and also if they did so, would have taken a lot of man hours and would have not gone un-noticed.
5] 2 number plates were flashed on day 1 & 2….one of a police jeep and the other a police Qualis…why no reference of the Police jeep anymore?
6] How come the Taxi near Dockyard and Vileparle exploded almost within minutes or an hour of the firing? What about the firings heard in those areas? Who did those?
7] Why did the local police tell the fishermen who reported the boats, to stay away?
and many more…..
THINK!!!
Just for the sake of transparent investigation:
Within three hours of attack ,photograph of the Terrorist was flashed on the screens,Surprise ,surprise ,they knew he is Pakistani ,after three days still one Terrorist survives ,does not blow himself up or kills himself and waits for to be arrested by police to claim he is Pakistani?
Also THE QUESTION I WANT TO ASK IS :WHY it took so long for Indian Police,Commandos and Army to reach to the house of JEWISH REBAI?
When on the first day,they knew two people are taken hostage and rest of the building is empty .The worker and the child walked out of the building.Recorded on camera.
The TV FOOTAGE of whole of operation at the Rebai house should be brought before public.
Why commandos blasted the wall of the house.
If everyone was dead who were the commandoes fighting and If they were alive ,what was the cause of their death and the death of Rabai and his wife?
When the commandos desended no one shot or fired at them,what does it mean were the terrorists dead alraedy.
One chair is found burnt?Why one chair only ?When the terrorists could burn the whole building.
BY THE WAY THIS IS FIRST ATTACK IN THE WORLD WHERE I AM TOLD TERRORISTS EXPECTED TO WALK AWAY LIVE FROM THE SCENE OR WAITED FOR TO BE CAPTURED BY THE POLICE
In the same stance this most important man from Pakistan by the way is not arrested inside the building ,he is dragged outside TAJ and is left to mob to hit him and kick him like a desi style as we do to kalai chour.
MY QUESTION IS A PERSON RESPONSIBLE FOR ALMOST 200 DEATHS AND POLICE DOES NOT ARREST HIM AND ESCORT HIM TO POLICE STATION in safety.

A person with an iota of analytical capability would visualise the direct connection between the murders of ATS chief, Hemant Karkare, and other officers involved in MalegaoN blast investigations and their killings … It is just not possible that only these ‘chosen’ officers were killed in the random firing in Bombay! that too within the first few hours, when the peripheral drama continued for almost 60 hours. Unless they were the targets! One must not forget that, on one hand, Advani was demanding a Narco test of Late Mr. Karkare himself, and condemning ATS, Mumbai, in general; and on the other RSS chief, Sudershan and the next ‘Advani-in-the-making’, Narendra Modi, were the first to shed crocodile tears on the loss of officers that belong to rare creed of honest and fair Police officers.
But one has to objective, and free from any communal biases — which Mr. Amaresh Misra is — to view the Bombay incident under this light …
as we all know that Indian media has very strong impact on the world.they are showing totally wrong picture of the whole scenario.they are only focused on abusing pakistan.but one thing is true that mr.misra has pointed out another aspect of hindu terrorist.nobody can think it.so i think indian government should focus on this point instead of blaming war against pakistan.
thank you.
Rabbi from Nariman house called Israeli consulate in mumbai for HELP and they sent security person to provide them cover this is ISRAEL policy all over world. Nothing wrong in it. At least they care for their citizens.
Pakistan is self proclaimed fighter for Islamic cause for all over world and have non-sense value as well as nuisance value in whole world.
This time pakistani caught red handed and exposed too.
Imagination knows no limits ! Same is the case with Amaresh Mishra! And people ,who appriciate these stories, love to be identified themselves as “out-of-the box thinkers” by appriciating new, rather baseless stories, thats why cinemas with unexpected twists n thrills get hit and thats where rational thinking vanishes!!!
1) If I believe you, it is not clear what so called Hindu extremist, Mossad etc nexus would benefit from the Mumbai attack?
2) If it is all about killing Mr.Karkare and co, why so much of violence to take 3 lives???
3) So called Hindu extremists never used such an advanced weapons in the past, infact they dont have access to!! (Godra, Malegaon etc)
4) Hemanth Karkare`s wife refused to take price money or honour from Narendra Modi, but at the same time she has been active in compaigns against terrorism after the attcks, rendered full support to the Indian Govt and never blamed Modi or any internal sources! (All is one night’s dream of so called “out-of-the box” thinkers !)
5) Today 12.02.2009, there is a report that Pakisthan admitted that the plot was planned from its soil (it will be confirmed soon !) and its going to file cases against Kasav n others! Pakisthan says terrorists operate from their soil, what you are going to say?? they are from Israel???? or the US??? They say Kasav is from Faridkot, you say Faridkot is in Israel???
6) There is no difference between people like Zaid Hamid (A pakisthani defence analyst whose analysis is totally dream-like, baseless and spreads hatred against India !) and you !
Nag
hi,
I just think the whole incident has two faces one the normal attacks by terrorists but what makes this incident different is, it has some big conspiracy in it there is something there which relates all like mallagaon , Mr karkare and terrorists and vhp but it would be not possible for us to know the truth in our lifetime.
Proud to be Muslim.
Retired Poice commissiner Mushrif has wroe a whole book about it.And Aziz Burney of Rashtriya Sahara (Hindi_Urdu)Is Making investigation.he has produce many article in Sahara.And The y are coming to the same solution as Mr.Mishra has concluded.
It is very strange case.
Let us wait.
Haidley and rana came into light after a long period.
There are many people fear involved in from in and out side according to many investigating journalist.
There is no point of blaming Mishra.
