Terrorism TV - All Terrorism, All the Time
One hand washes the other...
Where would terrorism be without CNN and the BBC to endlessly pump up its significance?
And how many times can these guys insert the phrase "Al Queda" per minute - when there is no evidence currently that links the CIA creation to this attack at all?
When the news of this attack broke last night in Europe, where I am at the moment, this was the ONLY news you could get on CNN and BBC European channels all night.
The deaths and injuries are, of course, tragic. The disruption to Mumbai's tourist areas significant.
But does this story merit non-stop all day and night coverage?
Listening to the BBC last night, you could hear the anchorwoman leading the Indian security forces expert she was interviewing.
"This is very significant, isn't it?"
"Yes, very."
"And this shows a much higher level of sophistication than we've ever seen in India before."
"Yes, indeed."
"And this is a serious cause for concern all over the world because it indicates the terrorists have developed a whole new level of effectiveness."
"Yes, you are quite right."
And on and on and on for hours making sure this tactical mole hill was blown up into a Himalayan-sized mountain.
OK, some armed nut jobs got together, shot innocent people and threw some bombs. Now they're holding hostages.
That's it. That's the whole story. Repeating it over and over and over again is the REAL terrorism.
Meanwhile, yesterday the US just threw ANOTHER futile trillion dollar log on the fire to try to stem the total collapse of the world financial system...because the previous trillion dollar log didn't do a thing.
Remember when a trillion dollars was a lot of money?
...When the Bush administration did everything they could to conceal the fact that Iraq was a trillion dollar war?
How quaint. How old fashioned.
(Actually, Iraq is looking more like a three to five trillion dollar war, but hey what's a few trillion here or there.)
