New Post (51) :What’s cool, light, fresh, mild ?

Nothing cool, light, fresh, mild about it.
Utterly nonsensical claims by people who profit from killing.

Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills.
Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills.
Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills.
Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills.
Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills.
Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills.
Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills.
Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills.
Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills. Smoking kills.

It will kill you before you learn to ride that horse like a cowboy.

Border skirmishes are a dangerous game(*)

New Post (50) : Border skirmishes are a dangerous game(*)

1. Breaking news :
“North Korea bombarded a South Korean island with dozens of artillery shells Tuesday in one of the fiercest attacks on its neighbor since the Korean War ended in 1953”. “Deadly skirmish comes amid South Korean military drills in the area”.

Both sides must restrain themselves from aggressive “posturing”.

If allowed to fester…without broad diplomatic pressure…
Who started and who “only” retaliated will become irrelevant.
The line between provocateur and provoked will blur out.

The situation can potentially and rapidly escalate into a full blown war.
As a consequence, the wider Asia-Pacific region could get unwillingly sucked into this.

The current situation is a most awkward challenge for “the maintenance" of "appearances of cordiality" in the USA-China relations. (One the largest debtor nation. The other the largest creditor nation)

The situation remains delicate…

With the unending grim situation in Iraq and Afghanistan still posing challenges…a 3rd conflict zone is not what the doctor prescribed.

2. The political establishments in India & Pakistan must be watchful too.
Border skirmishes can be the starting point on a roller coaster to hell.

THIS TIME AROUND the trigger referred to in “trigger happy” is a trigger to a nuclear war. Sanity and sensibility is required. On the part of---the actors as also the audience. The theater is at risk here.
