Indian citizen being sought for helping terrorist

Haaretz:

Security officials in India believe that an Indian citizen once called 'the most dangerous man in the world' masterminded the well orchestrated string of terror attacks that left at least 174 people dead in India's financial capital of Mumbai last week.

The man, Dawood Ibrahim, is believed to be hiding in Pakistan. Ibrahim is wanted in India for his suspected role in the 1993 bombings in Mumbai, in which more than 250 people died in a string of 13 coordinated bombings.

Ibrahim is a millionaire operating in several countries with connections both in India and Pakistan.

...

Reports from India indicate that security officials believe that Ibrahim orchestrated the attacks from the Pakistani city of Karachi, sending his men to enter India illegally to carry out ten coordinated attacks in separate locations in Mumbai.

The connection to Ibrahim was established during the questioning of one of the attackers,
  • Amir Kasab, 21, who told the Indian authorities that he had been sent to Mumbai by Ibrahim after having undergone training in Pakistan.

    • ...

    This with the name in the post below makes two know suspects for Pakistan police to round up in the Karachi area. It is a little unusual to name suspects before they are caught, but perhaps the Indian police are trying to put more pressure on Pakistan to find these guys.

    29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

    Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
