This morning the Islamic terrorists (with apology to my father, who taught me to never use the word. "Terrorism has no religion" - he'd say) caused fresh trouble in Kashmir.
In January, I'd written: Waiting for Robin Moor, and how a small trigger is all that is needed for a war.
Just look at the conditions on the sub-continent:
- A Military dictator in power in Pakistan.
- A weak Government in India under heavy fundamentalist pressure.
- Israel has demonstrated that "It's OK" to perform excesses in the name of anti-terrorism.
- The winter has thawed on the Indo-Pak border.
- The large number of mercenaries recruited by Taliban/Al-Queda, but let go by the USA during Enduring Freedom, need employment.
I am not saying I want war. I am saying that there will be war.
