India and Pakistan 10 Years After the Mumbai Attacks

In November 2008, operatives from the Lashkar-e-Taiba carried out 12 coordinated terrorist attacks across Mumbai, killing 164 and wounding over 300. The days following the attacks saw tensions rise between India and Pakistan. War clouds hovered over South Asia for weeks before the crisis abated, in part due to U.S. mediation. Since the Mumbai crisis, India-Pakistan tensions have simmered, with violence levels on the Line of Control in Kashmir being at their highest since a cease-fire was agreed on in 2003. While no terrorist attacks on the scale of Mumbai have occurred since 2008, terrorism remains an ever-present danger and mutual mistrust among regional states continues to make its resolution difficult. Now, transnational groups like Daesh and rejuvenated ones like Al Qaeda in South Asia further complicate the terrorist landscape. What lessons do India and Pakistan seem to have learned from the Mumbai experience? Are India and Pakistan better prepared to deal with terrorism jointly and/or separately? Is crisis management between the two easier or tougher than a decade ago? Is elimination of terrorism from the region possible in the foreseeable future? To reflect on these questions and the future of terrorism in the region, USIP hosted a panel discussion as USIP on Tuesday, November 27th from 2:00pm – 3:30pm.
