I have made a collection of reader feedback to various outlets.
(1) The Hindustan Times
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->The Indian Govt should wake up to the terror being spread in India. They should learn from the past and not open the borders and start plane, train, and bus services with other nations. I am outraged at the utter laxity of the Indian Govt regarding terrorism. The Indian Govt has to take a very tough stand against terrorism just like Isreal has taken against Palistine. - Diane, Parlin, USA (July 12, 2006) <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->This is of course a terrible and despicable act of terrorism. This act never can be justified. Innocent human lives are precious. But before we condemn this act of terrorism, <b>we must also bring our governments on account, which are responsible for creating such kind of rifts between sections of societies</b>.- Atif Suhail Siddiqui, New Delhi, India (July 11, 2006)<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

From the Times of India
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Another proof that the nation is there for the taking by the terror groups. Thanks mainly to our political leaders who are leading us into the hands of terrorists by their appeasement of the so called minorities and upholding the double standards by keeping two separate civil codes based on the religion. Democracy, freedom of speech, freedom of thought and human rights will soon be things of the past as the numbers continue to change. Wake up guys we are heading for another partition soon. Attoti Someswara Rao<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Terror attack is happening to India for last three decade. Politicians are busy in Mandalization and building relation with Pakistan to get more vote. Sanjay<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->We Indians should stronly condemn the brutal attacks on commuter trains in Mumbai which had resulted in loss of lives. <b>It is highly regrettable to observe that some section of the media is trying to paint a communal colour which will make things worse</b>. I am quite sure that Mumbaikars will give a befitting reply to those who wish to see destablisation taking place in India in the form of communal riots and I hope people will carry on their lives as usual and will stay calm in the wake of terrible tragedy that has struck this massive metroplitan city. Hope the govermant will bring to book those who are responsible for this brutal and cowardly act. Mathew Simon Doha, Qatar <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->I am new to Mumbai. On Sunday we saw the destruction caused by the Shiv Sena people in Dadar and today we came across this disaster. So many innocent people were the victims. Shravan Kumar Mumbai <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Stop publishing this baseless news! Medium like yours should be used to spread authentic information which can really help establish peace and communal harmony and not the otherwise. The intelligence never does any work and can only use LeT and SIMI for their intelligent rescue. Please stop supporting such politicians and help maintain peace and harmony. If you really have to publish something like this, do it with supporting facts! Zaid Kazi Mumbai <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Just a few days ago India condemned Israel for defending herself, so I say to you: I urge both sides to show restraint. Ray Solar Israel <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->This is the time to decide India's future. We are heading towards the end of tolerance. Bring down this government which consists of corrupt and selfish people. people like Lalu, Paswan, Arjun singh, who are the rotten breed of our polititians. They nurture terrorism in the name of secularism. Enough to do with secularism now. bring back TADA and give more powers to police not the criminals. just in the last week crazy muslim mob killed 2 police persons because a police chawky is planned in front of the mashid. are we living in India or we are living in Pakistan. My appeal to all nationalists let it be hindus or muslims. stand up unite and strike back at terrorists. zero tolerance acceptance for terrorism is what we expect from muslim community. otherwise the future would be difficult.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Mumbai Blasts are not surprising if you see the sequence of events ,first it
Was Bhiwandi violence instigated by Abu Azmi(Dawood man) and local Madrasa and next the defacing of Statue of Bal Thackerayâs wife and now the Train blasts.
What is appalling is that nobody takes the responsibility and do Mumbaikars
deserve this ? The answer is NO.The State Govt was cool even though the police constables were killed And in the second case the ex-shiv sena and present congressmen were Blaming the Shiv-sena and the Media endorsed this view.
I CAN BET THERE WONâT BE A SINGLE MUSLIM AMONG THE KILLED
IN THE BLASTS BâCSE MULLAH IN THEIR MOSQUES WOULD HAVE
GOT PRIOR INFORMATION ABOUT THE BLASTS.
Govt will may not bother if hindus are killed as they are not their vote bank. Mumbaikars also have to blamed for the kind of support they give to so called
Media savvy Elites like Memons,Mahesh Bhat and the likes of him who are terrorist sympathizers. Posted by: shankara, India, 11-07-2006 at 2059 hours IST<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
