The Bus to Nowhere

Halleluiah! Praise the lord, and all that. For only the millionth time we are going to try another confidence building measure with our friendly neighbor. A bus across the line of control. Wow, who ever came up with such a brilliant idea? Has to be one of those IAS, IFS types, no one else has enough Yak shit in their heads to think of such idiocy.
YAK SHIT


Our brothers, sisters, uncles etc across the border, train and arm militants to come over for a soup, pulao and a bout of AK-47 firing in Kashmir, Mumbai, Delhi and Korukupatti, while we spend a couple of zillions to try and keep alive 25 poor souls who want to visit their brothers, sisters, uncles etc across the border.

How is a bus load of people going to help two countries stop aiming nuclear tipped missiles at each other’s assholes? The learned bureaucrats have probably come up with something as mundane as “if there are people to people contacts, there will be better understanding of each other and therefore we will be able to jointly root out terrorism”. Idiots, wake up. The Pakistanis bomb Al-Qaeda hideouts in the north and train Laksher-E-Toiba personal in the south. They have been doing that since 2001 and they are not about to stop it because of a bus that doesn’t even have “in-bus” entertainment. The irony is pretty rich; the militants trained by our chums start spraying bullets on the bus that is supposedly a confidence building measure between the two countries.
Our mates across a couple of oceans have a better idea of rooting out terrorism. You just smart bomb the bastards out of the universe. You want to meet Allah? We shall help you achieve your goal. You want to shag your virgins in paradise; let us give you a ride in our Tomahawk.

Why didn’t the Americans send a friendly confidence building Boeing (with in-flight entertainment of course) to Kabul with garlands, streamers et al? People to people contact, so that they both learn a bit about each other and then jointly work on an agenda to bag the big bad ‘O’ man. No Boeings for Afghanistan. F-16s and stealth bombers are the American way of doing things. But, what is good for the goose is not necessarily good for the gander. India is not allowed to bomb terrorist training camps. We should train bus drivers and play more cricket as a means of fighting terrorists.
The BJP a loyal friend of Uncle Sam did an about-face when Mad Modi was refused a visa; the congress that used to keep its distance from big Uncle has suddenly found that they are in love with the Bushmen (I repeat, I have nothing against the American people, only against its current morally repugnant government).

Politics and diplomacy
Is quite mad and crazy
Most times without reason
The leaders commit high treason
