Bombs Away
Someone said the terrorists were real smart to bomb trains at peak hours in Bombay.
Duh? Really? Did it make any difference. One more headline. A little bit of fear.
A people who face so many internal threats, political gimmicks (read riots) and civic apathy all the time would hardly be
affected by a few missing men. Counts in far fewer than those who die of routine hunger or accidents everyday.
Most people in Bombay are far too busy hurtling towards their pots of Gold, too busy trying to make their individual dreams
come true at any cost. If not busy working, they are busy shopping for the bigger car or something vulgar to prove themselves
better than their neighbor. The rest are struggling towards their next meal. And then there are the hazaar multitudes who
have given up and just drudge on wearily with what they call their fate.
I don't want to give ideas to the nitwit terrorists, but sorry, the trains were a rather poor target.
And as far as my common sense goes, Terrorists are supposed to destroy the economy, not clean up society, right?
So why did some nitwits increase security in politician's houses.
Answers anyone?
