It’s been a week since the terrorist attacks on India’s commercial center, Mumbai.

Though the fires have been long extinguished and the wounded have been tended, thousands of Indians and Pakistanis are still raging as they express their pain, grief and anger, a volatile combination that has many worried the region could explode into even more violence. Many Indian nations are calling for a war with Pakistan, their longtime enemy whom they hold responsible for the deadly attacks, which claimed nearly 200 lives. Meanwhile, on Wednesday, more than 2,000 students marched through Pakistan’s capital, Islamabad, and shouted anti-Indian and anti-U.S. sentiments. As these emotions continue to swell, U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice arrived in Pakistan and urged their leaders to cooperate with Indian officials.

Meanwhile, Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, on Wednesday urged Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari and his spy chiefs to "investigate aggressively any and all possible ties to groups based in Pakistan." Only one of the ten perpetrators survived and claims to have been trained by Pakistan-based Kashmiri militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba. United States and Indian intelligence appear to confirm this connection. Rice insists she won’t "jump to conclusions" and insists the investigation will continue, but cannot be complete without Pakistan’s full cooperation.

Pakistani Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani has distanced his government from the alleged perpetrators, and described the attacks as "beyond anyone’s imagination." He also promised that he and his team will help in any way possible.

Pakistan’s getting a lot of heat since the attacks, but India deserves a bit of blame, too: U.S. officials warned at least six weeks ago that militants were preparing an attack on Mumbai hotels and commercial centers. The warning specifically mentioned the Taj Hotel, which remains in ruins after last week’s massacre. Though officials were aware of the impending attacks, their preparations were insufficient to stop the madness.

Any way you cut it, this is a crying shame.
