Abstract
[First paragraph]
At the height of the Mumbai siege in November 2008, one of the perpetrators, Fahad Ullah, used the mobile phone of one of the victims to call India TV and conducted a live interview with two journalists there. About a minute into their conversation, the two journalists, one male, one female, each asked in turn "What are your demands?". Ullah answered "Wait one minute" and was heard consulting with someone else as to what their demands were. The episode is one of the most revealing vignettes of the nature of contemporary terrorism.
