These are must watch videos for anyone who cares about humanity and it values. These videos, produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Dan Reed, highlights how the masterminds in Pakistan were manipulating the terrorist over the phone while there was mayhem in Mumbai. This is probably the first ever video which has un-edited phone conversation between the masterminds and the terrorist. [Update: I found Dan Reed on Twitter - I'm not sure about the authenticity of his Twitter account]

I have put this videos on my blog to highlight how the terrorist are manipulated by their lords and how does the terrorism effects normal and innocent people. I hope technology and social-media plays a bigger role in creating awareness among the people. I’m sure technology can play a much bigger role in eliminating the root cause of terrorism which in my view is “Poverty” and “Illiteracy” and it has nothing to do with any religion. The majority of the terrorist come from very poor families who cannot afford to buy two square meals a day. In one of the video below the captured terrorist told the investigating officer that he was sold by his father to a banned-militant organization in Pakistan called “Lashkhar-e-Toiba“.

From the video description in YouTube:

The untold story of 2008′s terrorist attack, in the words of its victims and the gunmen. The programme contains graphic images and descriptions of the atrocity which may upset some viewers. Produced and directed by award-winning filmmaker Dan Reed, Terror in Mumbai tells the story of what happened when 10 gunmen held one of the world’s busiest cities hostage; killing and wounding hundreds of people while holding India’s crack security forces at bay.

Featuring footage of the attacks and interviews with senior police officers and hostages, including the testimony from Kasab – the sole surviving gunman, Dispatches reveals what happened, hour by hour, from the perspective of the security forces, the terrorists, their masterminds and the victims.

UPDATE: YouTube have taken down the video [Thanks to Praval for pointing it out]. I have found new source of the video in TruthTube.tv. Video are embedded below.
