Geo-Political Fallout From Mumbai Attacks
India has formally demanded Pakistan take "strong action" against those behind the 60-hour siege in Mumbai that left at least 172 people dead. India has blamed a banned Pakistani militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba, but Indian officials have been cautious about accusing Pakistan's government of complicity. Larry Mantle talks with Middle East Institute scholar Marvin Weinbaum, Politcal Scientist Sumit Ganguly, and International Security Expert Jim Walsh about the situation.
