US could’ve averted Mumbai attacks?

The 26/11 Mumbai attacks could have been averted if the then Bush administration had taken seriously the warning and threat perception of Lashkar-e-Taiba's global operations by renowned French judge, a media report said.

Jean-Louis Bruguiere met officials of the Bush administration in 2007 to inform them about the LeT's threat and Pakistan's double game, but US officials were not convinced by his argument , reported PBS's Frontline and ProPublica in a report released on Monday.

Bruguiere argument was based on his investigation of French LeT terrorist Willie Brigitte, who after being caught had confessed to involvement in a foiled bomb plot in Australia.

During his investigation, the judge found that Brigitte's handler LeT handler was Sajid Mir, one of the key architect of the Mumbai terrorist attack. "When Bruguiere questioned Brigitte, the links between Lashkar-e-Taiba , Sajid Mir and Pakistan's intelligence service ISI began to unravel," the report said.

Why does it become necessary for the U.S. to take the threat from LeT seriously for the Mumbai attacks to have been averted? We were the ones caught with our pants down & we didn't need any French judge to tell us that the LeT posed a serious threat. It is not the business of any other country to safeguard the lives of Indian citizen & Indian territory, all we can ask for is assistance & be grateful for any given.

Why blame the U.S.A.???

It is a case of absolute failure of India's own intelligence and security agencies.

We can't expect the U.S.A. to act on behalf of us. We are responsible for our own mess.

Times of India asks whether "US could’ve averted Mumbai attacks?" That looks like India is holding US somewhat responsible for the attack. And what does that have to do with whether my country is in deep sh1t? Tell you what, even if the US could have averted the attack, we don't do it. Just to let it blow up in your face.

U.S is not responsible for the security of our country. Its our government, our intelligence agencies which failed then why blame America?

The other report merely said so and so French judge might have known something. It never said US could’ve averted Mumbai attacks. Times of INDIA put in that title and in its article, shifting the blame to US. Go fvck yourself for your lack of security. Don't blame your problem on us.
