Who is going to fight the WAR??????
Everybody in media is so excited and upbeat that India has said that it will consider all its options against Pakistan.The question is how many options does India really have against Pakistan.Every news channel has by now shown the comparative details of armed capabilities of India and Pakistan.Which country has which missiles and who has bigger army.Nobody though has had the guts of comparing deaths on both sides in case a war breaks out.Well may be that doesn't make much commercial sense to them.The question is who is going to fight the war.No reporter is going to die in war, even if one or to die, they are going to be heroes and their channels are going to get maximum publicity out of them(however bad it may sound its the reality).For example look at Barkha Dutt for NDTV her career shot up after she covered KARGIL but what about the careers of the children of the soldiers who died fighting on mountains.Who remembers them?Ask anybody who travels in trains or has a shop in the markets, on either side of the LOC.They dont want war because they are the ones who are going to be killed.I can't imagine anything more senseless from media.They are showing a good 30 minutes show to compare a WAR without even realizing what they are doing.War is just not an option neither is not paying taxes.I am surprised how these rich people never thought about not paying their taxes when singur was burning or for that matter when gujrat was all bloody.May be their India is restricted to those dining in the TAJ.Nobody said they wanted war when bombs blasted in parks in Delhi or in markets of Jaipur.The real learning from these Bombay attack is to start to value the lives of each and every Indian and that doesn't mean that we should make a war outcry every time there is a bomb blast.We can say that we value our lives when we start to invest more on internal security by upgrading police and creating professional institutions for the security of the country.
