"Yes, Lakhvi is among four or five people arrested in a raid yesterday," said the official, whose JuD charity is regarded as front for the feared militant group.
Pakistani intelligence officers said six men have been arrested, but gave no names, and there has been no official confirmation of the raid.
Lakhvi, one of Lashkar's operations chiefs, was named as a ringleader in the Mumbai plot by the lone surviving gunman captured in India, according to Indian officials.
He and Yusuf Muzammil, the head of Lashkar's anti-India operations, gave orders by telephone to the 10 militants who killed at least 171 people in the attack on Mumbai, Indian officials say.

What I find so interesting about this excerpt is the casualties and planners involved in this attack. I find international news to be very interesting, and numbers to me also mean a lot. If you think about how 6 men can affect 171 people... and that's not even for sure yet. The death toll is still rising. I have never understood the thrill of terror attacks, or the motives that drive the suspects. To think that religion is one main reason for these attacks scares me for various reasons. Religion is a belief, I accept this though, yet taking other people's lives for a belief that has not been proven is extreme. I think that people must stay within the boundaries of humanity, and leaving innocent people out of affairs that affect the suspects. Reuters to me gives a very unbiased opinion and writers do what they are paid to do, issue the daily news. I hope people understand the significance of 6 to 171.

Sort of the opposite of tolerance, right?
