...No you won't hear this as a shocking news on Television or any place else. This country has been bleeding from acts of terrorism for decades and decades. "29 killed in Ahmedabad", "2 killed in Bangalore", "30 killed in Benaras", "Scores killed in Jaipur"... These don't make actionable news anymore. And the perpetrators of these crimes are not always "Al Quaeda" but these home grown organizations springing up all over the world fascinated by whats going on in Iraq, Afghanistan or Pakistan. It is ironic that even after 9/11 the world does not see it as a global problem. There are talks of premature withdrawal of US troops from Iraq. Has anyone thought what will it get translated to? Do not donate your victory. It is too late to teach what a true Jihad means to these global Jihadis, they should be firmly dealt with, once and for all.

The drama around nuclear deal
Indo-US nuclear deal has stirred a political beehive of Indian democracy. The political parties are so divided that the vote has become an issue of bringing down the government. So much so Horse trading that were never heard of on a non-local political issue. Mayawati proved smarter than Sonia. SP the most opportunistic. Left trying to erect a stronger third front and BJP a helpless lot. With Mayawati on the third front it is unlikely that BJP will try to bring down the house. It is in their favor to have a weak and divided members till the next elections. Either way, it is funny and ironic to see re-alignment of political coziness and opportunism not seen in a while. Hope the election commission and Supreme court is watching closely any trading of political loyalities.

Is it a Pet Jealousy?
A few years ago my Sister rescued a week old Parrot and brought it home that has been a wonderful Pet since. He gets an undivided attention. Recently she rescued a chick probably a pullet and brought her home. It was hungry and thirsty. Now, whenever the new pet is given attention, our parrot leaves everything he is doing and starts watching it. And yes, everything includes eating his favorite food. We are not bird psychology experts but our parrot's less chattering is making us a little concerned. We want to see them grow together.

Why blame George Bush?
Both the camps blame Bush for all the evils this country is facing today. May be he did not have the best of an Orator abilities. May be he did not have any idea of how to run an economy. But why to blame George Bush for scratching a wound to show the world how big of a cancer it has become underneath?
