Mumbai Muslims give blood to Hindu bomb victims

Indian Muslims queued for hours on Wednesday to give blood to their Hindu neighbors wounded in the Mumbai train bombings, in a rare show of harmony in a city with a long history of rioting between the two communities. "We don't care whether it's a Hindu or a Muslim who gets our blood as long as we can save them," said Abdul Khan, one of dozens of Muslim men waiting in line at the blood bank at Siddarth Hospital, near one blast site at Jogeshwari station.
