'Wanted to hit LeT camps, ISI after 26/11 Mumbai attack'
After the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, the then Foreign Secretary Shivshankar Menon said he had pressed for immediate military retaliation either against Lashkar-e-Taiba or ISI, as it "would have been emotionally satisfying". "On sober reflection... the decision not to retaliate militarily and to concentrate on diplomatic, covert, and other means was the right one for that time and place," he added.
