<p>In three shocking, bloody days, the whole world got a crash course in the urban landscape of Mumbai.</p>
<p>It was already India’s most cosmopolitan city, financial center, Bollywood movie hub. Now, it’s a familiar front-page map &#8212; a blood-stained city guide of terrorist destruction.</p>
<p>The Leopold Cafe.  The Taj Mahal hotel.  The train station.  The Jewish welcome center. And on, and on.</p>
<p>Today, Mumbai is already back on its feet.  But its three days of terrorist guns and grenades are still echoing loudly, dangerously, from India to Pakistan to Washington.</p>
<p>This hour, On Point: After the terror in Mumbai.</p>
<p>You can join the conversation.  What did you see in the flames and gunfire and death toll in Mumbai?  Who do you blame?  And what now?</p>
