A Commonwealth Games story that the BBC choose not to remind us of

Amidst the BBC's horrified coverage of India's Commonwealth Games problems, have you noticed any space being given to a potentially more serious threat:

'We warn the international community not to send their people to the 2010 Hockey World Cup, IPL (Indian Premier League Cricket Tournament) and Commonwealth Games. Nor should their people visit India – if they do, they will be responsible for the consequences.

We, the mujahideen of 313 Brigade, vow to continue attacks all across India until the Indian Army leaves Kashmir and gives the Kashmiris their right of self-determination. We assure the Muslims of the subcontinent that we will never forget the massacre of the Muslims in Gujarat and the demolition of Babri Mosque. The entire Muslim community is one body and we will take revenge for all injustices and tyranny. We again warn the Indian government to compensate for all its injustices, otherwise they will see our next action.'

Have the BBC forgotten what Pakistani originated, and maybe influenced & supported, terrorists wrought in Mumbai just under two years ago?

In 2008 Islamic terrorists killed at least 173 people and wounded at least another 308. The targets then included the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, the Oberoi Trident, the Taj Mahal Palace & Tower, the Orthodox Jewish-owned Nariman House, and Cama Hospital (a women and children's hospital). The only attacker who was captured alive, Ajmal Kasab, disclosed that the attackers were members of Lashkar-e-Taiba, the Pakistan-based terrorist organization. The Indian Government said that the attackers came from Pakistan, and their controllers were in Pakistan. These claims were initailly pooh poohed by Pakistan and its friends in the West, including some interviewed by the BBC. So these 'people' must have been distraught when after more than a month of denying the nationality of the attackers, Pakistan's Information Minister Sherry Rehman officially accepted Ajmal Kasab's nationality as Pakistani. A month later Pakistan's Interior Minister Rehman Malik, in a TV news briefing, confirmed that parts of the attack had been planned in Pakistan and said that six people, including the alleged mastermind, were being held in connection with the attacks.

So should Commonwealth athletes be more worrid by leaky rooms or Pakistani terrorists? And will the BBC ever cover such a threat?
