Bombing
It is very discomforting to read and hear people in responsible positions trying to find comfort in the fact that bombs are being exploded in Delhi, Bali, London, Karachi and elsewhere ! Among others, one Senior Minister and an MP ( a retired Major General) have done that very recently. One may humbly ask -- while the perpetrators in those places may have an agenda, what was the aim on 17 August? Was the whole nation targeted ?
A very grim and disturbing thought indeed, as it is also fatal to find solace in bad examples.
You don't keep your backyard unguarded just because your neighbour's has been looted recently !
