Baby Moshe: One year later

Baby Moshe: One year later
Baby Moshe, one of the youngest 26/11survivors, became in many ways the face of the Mumbai tragedy. The three-year-old infant was orphaned in a mindless act of terror.

The Mumbai attacks are also being remembered in Israel because of the only survivor of the slaughter in a Jewish shelter. Moshe, who's half American, was rescued by his Indian nanny.

He looks happy enough today, living with his grandparents and his Indian nanny. But Moshe's parents were murdered in the Mumbai massacre.

A year ago on November 26, 2008, his nanny Sandra snatched him from the side of his parents, where he lay in their blood and saved him.

Moshe's grandfather says, "Each morning when he sees photos of his parents, he says good morning mummy and daddy. We tell him they are with God."

For the community that has adopted him, the best revenge, they say, is that one day Moshe will go back to Mumbai and take over his father's job as Rabbi to traveling Jews.

Aharon Avraham, the Indian doctor who confirmed that Moshe's parents were dead, was so close to the American Rabbi and his wife, and so upset, that he came to live in Israel. He too is Jewish now.

"I'm very happy to be here. The people live for God, not for business and money," he said.

Moshe is being raised in the path of his parents, as an orthodox Jew. His grandparents say he has no memory of the massacre.

The Indian nanny who saved Moshe's life says he is in the best hands. Her work is done in Israel and she's ready to go home to India.
