India and Hinduism is viewed by the Islamic hardliners as a hurdle to their plans eastwards,and they have been trying to crack this wall for ages.
As one who writes and speaks about these issues (in addition to flying for a major) this is undoubtedly true. There is an ideological war raging right now every bit as big as those the "west" faced during the last century. Groups such as those that terrorized Mumbai are at war with every person, every state and every economy that does not align with their very extreme beliefs. The poverty of places like Mumbai, Dehli and elsewhere (and like Fatty, I've been there as well) feeds young men and women into the pipelines where radical groups like Al Qaeda recruit.
Unfortunately, we Americans don't wake up to this fact until we're attacked every few years or so. For the terror groups, their reality is seeking ways to kill infidels and disrupt western economies every day.
