　　A meeting of India's top military brass¹ is under way - the first since last November's terror attack on Mumbai, in which more than 160 people died. The country's defense² chief is telling his commanders they must be prepared to meet "emerging threats" from Pakistan resulting from their neighbor's current battle against insurgents³, who are also India's enemies.
