Oh. My. God.

[fictional]

This is crazy.

Dear god. I.. wow. More reasoned response later.

This whole thing was just one massive clusterfuck. Hope all your near and dear are okay.

Family and friends are accounted but people known to them have been killed or have been held as hostages.

The whole thing was... I dunno what... but it was brilliantly executed - they achieved what they wanted to -- destabilisation of the nation and fear-mongering.

I know. They (read: people who want to fuck shit up) are getting smarter. It's fearsome.

[marchek.livejournal.com]

I just heard.
What the hell is going on? The world is spinning out of control.

[kalichan.livejournal.com]

It is really is the world gone mad. *hug*

[semyaza.livejournal.com]

I'm horrified.

[kalichan.livejournal.com]

The massive chaos involved in the whole thing is just so mind boggling. I'd almost got used to the one shot suicide bomb things. But a gun battle that goes on for several days? Fanaticism is so alarming on so many levels. And now...escalation! Yay!

I thought of you and yours right away. *hugs*

[kalichan.livejournal.com]

Thanks hon. Much appreciated. Luckily for me, I've never even been to Bombay and don't have any family or friends there. Still, it's heartrending.

I knew you were more of a northerner, but one never knows where someone's family might extend, go to university, work, etc...

but so very awful.

[kel-reiley.livejournal.com]

was listening to that on the news earlier and thought of you

[kalichan.livejournal.com]

Thank you. Luckily I've no friends or family there, but it's hard to watch the country getting torn apart.

[contrarywise]

That is crazy, and awful. I can't think of anything else to say, except that you and yours are in my thoughts.

[kalichan.livejournal.com]

Thank you so much. It means a lot, really. It's a hard thing to watch.

[electro-club.livejournal.com]

Crazy is not enough to describe this.
World is so wrong. So, so, so wrong.

[kalichan.livejournal.com]

It's crazy to watch the world devouring itself.

[framefolly.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry this happened.

I hope that your family is okay.

My bf is still waiting to hear from a friend of his who is traveling in the region.

*hugs*

[kalichan.livejournal.com]

I hope your bf's friend is okay!

I am lucky; I had no friends or family in the region, for which I'm thankful. It's just hard to watch the country getting torn apart now. Not that it was ever very stable, but this is horrific.

[framefolly.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he was at the train station exactly one day before -- but he's alright.

*hugs*

[stardragonca.livejournal.com]

I can't help crying at random moments. I need to stop for a while.
Peace and love.

[kalichan.livejournal.com]

Peace and love to you too. *hugs*

I've been trying to come up with something deeper than 'that's horrible', but it's...well, that's horrible.

I'll be thinking of you and yours.

[kalichan.livejournal.com]

Things like this sort of leave us bereft of words. Thank you for good thoughts. They're good to hang on to.
